  1. The more albums that get released in 2020, the more it becomes clearer that Taylor is truly at the top of her game. She's miles ahead of everyone else sonically and lyrical--and tbh i think its because of her close relationship with her fans. She doesn't really write about her own celebrity-world troubles in her music, she writes them from the perspective of her average teenage fans, who share stories with her and she listens; and that's what makes her music so universally relatable. Not many of us can relate to living for cheering crowds, or overcoming the confusing world of celebrity--but we can all relate to love triangles, high school drama, drifting apart from our childhood friends, etc. etc. And that's why all her music has always been "folklore", bc it captures the common feelings of a group/subculture, and not just Taylor herself

    Well he sure served a lot longer than several of the prime ministers who came before him. 

     

    Really a long run as PM. I thought he would stay until next year until after the Olympics concluded. 

    His term was slated to end in Sept. 2021

    Don't know about his policies but hope his health improves. I wonder who will replace him

    There will likely be an interim leader until a general election can be called soon

    I have been so busy OMG what is happening?? Can someone please catch me up one everything?? Is something coming tonight

     

    Lana's hairdresser posted a pic of her w the caption "3 days and 4 midnights" (which is midnight tonight) and hashtagged Chemtrails Over The Country Club. User @IanadeIrey theorized that she could surprise release the album/single on Saturday night, as it ties in with her "Question for the Culture" letter + her notorious performance at SNL 8 years ago (I recommend going back and reading their full post, it is one of the most insightful analysis I've seen in awhile). Jack Antoff (her producer) has repeatedly been tweeting "Take the sadness out of Saturday Night". 

     

    Ed said the album isn't done

    OMG i called some records store in California and one just told me he received the dates for them except it seems the digital date got pushed back, he originally told me Sept 5th but wasn’t too confident it’s still that date.

     

    But he told me that the physical releases (LP and CDs) are still slated for release on October 2nd (We hadn’t heard that date before!!) so this means we will definitely get the album before then!!!!!!!! Omfg im so excited


    So we’ll have COCC in our ears before we have COCC in our hands. 


  5. Idk if anyone other than me checks this thread but, just to keep everything up to date:

    As the RNC heads into its final night, Trump closes in on Biden in betting markets—over fears that Postal Ballots will not be properly counted for. 
    The GOP has refused to write a new party platform—instead using the 2016 platform. 
    Trump has vowed to defund mail-in-voting because he believes it will lead to election rigging at a massive scale. 

     

    Spoiler

    There goes my dreams of moving back to the US, if Trump wins...

    Big lol, anything that wasn’t a single before Harleys, sucks. Big time.

     

    Who knew when an artist gets pregnant their art evolves into something so shallow and uninspired. Or perhaps that just happens when singers start trying to write their own music when they originally didn’t.

    I wish she’d go back to the alt-rock sound she started out with. OOTB is one of the best pop albums of the 00s, and she wrote a handful of those tracks completely by herself (including her magnum opus: Thinking Of You)...

     

    Ever since she switched to a more electronic/modern sound (to compete with Gaga?) her writing quality as drastically fallen. NRO is the only thing she’s released post-Teenage Dream that can even touch her earlier works; and it’s sad because I think she could deliver another really great OOTB style album
