I see The Anthology as an extended deluxe addition because I feel like there was absolutely 0 thought put into the track listing, I think it is one of her worst tracklists ever. Why is The Black Dog the opener? Why is The Albatross, one of the most folky songs on the record, right after imgonnagetyouback, which is a spacey vibey pop song? It only makes it worse that the standard TTPD has literally her best tracklist.

this is why i feel like one of the more poppy songs (imgonnagetyouback or so high school) should've been swapped on the tracklist for the smallest man who ever lived. that song just screams anthology. she should've kept that evermore folksy vibe going and left the pop songs for the standard imo 

just listened to the anthology all the way through for the first time. i might actually like this side more 

my vinyl skips three times during so long, london

this is gonna be controversial, but "The Tortured poets Department" might be her weakest title track to date.

 

the title track feels almost ai generated to me, or what someone would say a generic ts song sounds like. it's catchy but not on same the level as the rest of the record

Ok ok, one last comment then i’ll leave this thread forever:

 

you've said this like three times friend  no hate i just thought it was funny

very much agree on in my head being one of ariana's best though

The fact that all all these shill reviewers acclaim bombed her-only to go with the inverse opinion after others disagreed 

exactly, it's incredibly see-through. i personally couldn't care less what the critics say, but to watch them coward behind whatever train of thought is most popular at the moment is pathetic. form your own opinions and SAY THEM WITH YOUR CHEST! (and if you're going to be as disrespectful as to bring Sylvia Plath into your silliness, put your name on it.)

I refuse to associate “Gold Rush” with Matty. Same with “Ivy”.

and what’s everyones favs from each album?

if i had to pick one from each:

Taylor Swift: I'm Only Me When I'm With You

Fearless: Come In With The Rain

Speak Now: Haunted

Red: State of Grace

1989: Clean

Reputation: Dress

folklore: seven

evermore: gold rush

Midnights: Midnight Rain

TTPD: So Long, London

obsessed with the vinyl gatefold being like diary pages. i know she's not the first to do it but it's such a cool idea 

Folklore/Evermore

Reputation 

Red

1989

Midnights

The Tortured Poets Department

Speak Now

Fearless

Lover

Taylor Swift

(there is not a single album i hate, so hard to rank )

it's a shame this album was released at the height of public disdain for her  we're not getting honest feedback, we're getting a bunch of comments from people who are tired of seeing her. even if you completely dislike the record, it's not worth a 1/10.

looking for america representative here 

such a beautifully sad song 

the okapi because they just don't seem to know what they want to be and neither do i

Loss of My Life deserved it more. 

i think loml equally deserves the title. what i was talking about, though, was the people saying so long, london was not at all sad and it was too boring

Oh, this is one of the few tracks that I was able to get hooked on listening to

 

Are there any bops on the album, except for a couple from the standard version?

 

 

 

i'm still only listening to the standard, waiting to tire it out before i look into the other 15 tracks. my favorite popish tracks at the moment are fortnight, guilty as sin, down bad, florida and my boy only breaks his favorite toys 

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? 

28 minutes ago, NikoGo said:

no but she really should have waited AT LEAST a month to drop the second album, 31 songs all at once is overwhelming

i haven't even fully listened through anthology yet because 16 songs is already so much. i'm gonna wait till i've overplayed the standard record to dive into the rest

i always wonder why you come into this thread. you make your stance on taylor very clear, what's the point in trying to provoke other people on this forum?

? 

you forgot to add the million to 100 in your original comment. 100 monthly listeners is probably what nikki pulls on a good day 

talking like this when more the half of lana's fan base stays up praying that she's not featured on lasso. guess she's gotta stay relevant somehow

Ok if you’re NOT Taylor Swift, Proceed…

I think Taylor is paying for a “hate campaign” on social media so Reputation can be released during a “buzzy?” Time.

I don’t know, I’m Delusional…

 

 

 

you don't have to pay people to hate taylor swift  

that's just something that generally happens when you're inescapable, some just start to get mean and bitter

now that i feel like i've fully digested what i heard, here's my ranking for the standard edition

1. So Long, London

2. Fortnight

3. Guilty As Sin?

4. I Can Fix Him (No Really I Can)

5. Clara Bow

6. Who's Afraid Of Little Old Me?

7. loml

8. Down Bad

9. My Boy Only Breaks His Favorite Toys

10. But Daddy I Love Him

11. Florida!!! 

12. I Can Do It With A Broken Heart

13. The Smallest Man Who Ever Lived

14. The Tortured Poets Department 

15. Fresh Out The Slammer

16. The Alchemy

we'll see how this inevitably changes in a week
