Better vocals, maybe a more original song structure of any kind, at least some proper guitar playing, these are just not more than three note licks.. and some kind of "melody" maybe? Try to sing it, the only thing that stays in mind are these backing vocals and they are more like a parody in my ears. Sorry for moaning but I was asked what I expect. I learn today to expect nothing anymore obviously. Please no attacks for having an opinion, thank you.

I totally agree with you.
I think people are trying too hard to appreciate these new songs and, perhaps, get a better feeling when the album comes in.
I think that when the music is great, it captives you to listen again and again so the music will grow and the hidden gems starts to appear.
In this last couple of songs, some of us are having the opposite way.
They are tryng to like the songs only because MK.
Both are, in my opinion, weak songs.
About WMG, i feel a strong movement for some on 'enjoy' the MK's lazy vocals and the lack of a main melody.
The only thing that is 'singable' is that awful backing vocals.
My feeling, after hearing the recent MK's songs, is:
"It cannot be serious! I'll listen it again"
"This is an MK song? I'll listen it again to search something that I'll like"
I m not expecting a long guitar solo or a recreation of a DS song.
For an artist on the level of MK, i expect a song played with meaning, effort, with a strong vocal, with feeling and good surprises.
