Nectar Of The Puss

my final ranking of the standard edition after a week:
 
1. Guilty As Sin?   (Amazing, top 10 song, 13/10)
2. But Daddy I Love Him (just wow, no words, 11/10)
3. Florida!!! (Makes me feral, 10/10)
4. The Smallest Man Who Ever Lived (That bridge deserves a 10/10 alone)
5. Fresh Out The Slammer (A big grower for me, can't get enough of the sound on this track, she needs to do more of this country style 9/10)
6. So Long, London (So beautiful, not my fav track 5  , but I ascend every time I listen 8.8/10)
7. Who's Afraid Of Little Old Me (I can see this going lower later, after the gag wears off it's still a great song, but definitely not the best one. 8.5/10)
8. loml (One of her saddest songs ever, maybe even sadder than hoax. Beautiful song, but I can't see myself going back to it, as it's too sad 8.5/10)
9. Fortnight (I love the emotionless delivery on this one, it really works imo. Makes me feel like a mental hospital patient, 8,3/10)
10. My Boy Only Breaks (A fun bop! The true single of this album, really hopes it gets played on tour 8/10)
11. I Can Do It With A Broken Heart (Another lil bop, maybe the production is a bit too much, but I enjoy it! 8/10)
12. I Can Fix Him (Too short, if it was another minute it would be much higher. I love the country saloon vibe, she really has to go this direction for TS12 .7.9/10)
13. Clara Bow (I enioy this, the production is very "You're On Your Own, Kid" but the melody doesn't do it for me. I do like hearing Taylor Swift say Taylor Swift though. 7.5/10
14. TTPD (Hmm. The lyrics on this are a bit iffy, but I find myself coming back to this song. It might rise in my ranking in time. I like the chorus a lot 7.3/10)
15. The Alchemy (This is a puzzling song, I can't tell if I like it or not. The football metaphors are not for me, none of that on TS12 please. I love the production on this though, and the chorus. Just wish it had different lyrics. The lyric I really like is "Who are we to fight the alchemy"', that's cute. 7.2/10)
16. Down Bad (Not feeling this one. Everyone likes it, it seems, but the chorus is too repetitive for me. It feels like something I can put as backround music when I work out, something I don't have to pay too much atttention to. Overall, it's monotonous. I like it when she says fuck tho. 6.9/10)
 
Overall, I'd give it a score of 83-85. Here's how it ranks among the other albums:
 
1. Evermore
2. 1989
3. Folklore
4. Rep
5. TTPD (Standard)
6. Speak Now
7. Red
8. Midnights
9. Lover
10. Fearless
11. Debut
 
If I combined it with The Anthology though, it would probably be top 3. I actually haven't finished TA yet, I have 6 songs to go. I'll make a full ranking in a few days.

If Taylor adds the smallest man who ever lived to the set list I won’t be coming home 

recently started listening to Chappell and I luv her  she'll be at a music fest im going to this year and i'm so excited! she reminds me of some of the Tumblr pop girlies back in the day like marina

If Taylor adds the smallest man who ever lived to the set list I won’t be coming home 

been listening to the anthology obsessively. it's giving me that same feeling i got when i was in the early stages of listening to folklore and evermore, just awestruck. i love taylor swift in all kinds of genres but THIS is where she truly thrives to me. the strings in the prophecy have me in a chokehold 

If Taylor adds the smallest man who ever lived to the set list I won’t be coming home

I really fuck with this cardigan. I love merch that isn’t noticeably merch so the last merch drop was also banging. I would like it if it had patches but also I wouldn’t wear it then

I have unexpectedly fallen in love with So High School as someone who can’t relate to what she’s singing about at all. It reminds me of Teenage Dream by KP. Whole album like that please!

When r we getting Lana on Fortnite 

This isn’t really related but on sotb I can hear Lana throughout the whole song I prefer the original version over the more Lana version honestly

god people need to stop trying to make up drama. as if Lana cares. Taylor seems to love Lana and I believe her being a fan is genuine, but if Taylor had wanted Lana on the album she would've just asked, which means, if she did ask, that means Lana said no. she wouldn't be upset lmao
I love Taylor and I love Lana (obviously) but my personal opinion is Lana only did SOTB because Jack probably pushed her to, which is probably why she was barely in it in the first version. If they hadn't shared a producer I imagine had Taylor asked if Lana would feature in a song, Lana probably would've politely declined. I wish we would get more Lana/Taylor just because I enjoy them both, and I'd love a performance, but they're really quite an odd pairing and I think people need to move on

loml is sadder, but i feel like track 5s always have that anthemic vibe that build up. loml is just a well of tears that stays there. it'd be like putting New Years Day for Track 5 on rep. 

just ventured onto twitter to see how other fans are reacting, bad choice  glad i only checked here during release because what do you mean so long, london doesn't deserve to be a track 5? 

Fantano is ripping this album apart and it’s actually so embarrassing and making him really not respect him. I actually enjoy watching his reviews even when I disagree but wow the clip I saw of him reacting to it was just bad. He was just regurgitating the same tired Twitter takes that weren’t even about the music lol. Calling her creatively tired and a “perpetual victim” (which we could have an entire conversation on that critique and how irritating it is but whatever). The reviews on this album are so biased and I can’t wait in two years when people realize this is top 3 if not her best record lol.
