Taylor Swift

[stillrun 3,380]

i’m getting called passive aggressive for providing a user (who….what are they doing in the Taylor Swift thread besides being hateful and complaining about her lyricism? lol) with a link to a tweet about Lana Del Rey acknowledging the song….erm okay! 

 

ot: Karma is a good song, i honestly think the purring like a cat in my lap line is adorable.

And it’s filtered. The collapse when the real number is 18m.  Ariana and Gaga previous record -  6.7m filtered and 10m unfiltered.

And Lana is running around with her horse sweater while she is breaking records 

[Cherry Blossom 21,536]

Yeah I fainted. Midnights numbers are insane. She is the music industry

Sitting with the album I really enjoy/like it. I’ve had it on repeat on and off. 
 

It’s a really nice mix of pop and the sound she explored in Folklore/Evermore as others have said. Yes it has some moments and songs where I’m like mehhh really (cringe) but it also has moments that wow me and pull me in. I don’t know what it is but I feel like a full circle moment for her and it is really endearing to watch and experience. 
 

This is my first Taylor album release to follow since her early days so it is just really refreshing and nice to experience. 
 

Also her mind/business savvy/performance is just so insane and admirable. People shit on her but she keeps doing what she wants and excelling. Definitely have to respect that.

This album is better than Lover. But I still hope that she goes back to her Folklore/Evermore sound at some point. That's her best music. I know that the general public loves the pop stuff more, but at the end of the day those songs will age worse and can't compare to her magnum opus aka Folklore. Reputation aged much better compared to her pure pop stuff (imo).

I called your response passive-aggressive because of what you added which was “since you’re so concerned” simply because I was wondering why wasn’t Lana mentioning the track/collaboration at all. Please don’t play these games with me, I’m 100% bullshit free and don’t have any patience for this type of back and forth. Be nice or be gone, please.

[Cherry Blossom 21,536]

Honestly, I think Taylor’s at the point in her career where she could go back to pure country like Fearless and Taylor Swift (especially after Taylor’s Version drops), then back to pure pop the succeeding album, and then back to that alternative folk sound she had with folklore and evermore and her success wouldn’t really be hindered. She’s opened her fanbase up to so many different genres and styles of writing and music, and the majority of them love her for her personality also, that everything she does from this point onwards will do amazingly in my opinion. At least for the next 5 or so years.

you quoting me with this........back and forth, i have to laugh honestly....the lack of self awareness is hilarious and sad. be nice or be gone, please and try to stay on topic. no need to quote me any further. <3

 

OT: i wonder when we get more videos? when she announced that it would be a visual album i kind of woke up expecting all the videos to be available to watch.

I mean…you did come here and call Taylor’s lyrics “disturbing” and insinuated that those who enjoy them are falling for some empty cash grab…

I called her antics directionless cashbrags. Whether people agree with me or not or fall for it or not is not any of my business. I don’t think I hold that much power over y’all. I’m happy y’all are enjoying it.

Also can we talk about the part in would've could've should've where she says give me back my girlhood it was mine first

that song is actually really great

[TheBoss 13,507]

I find it so funny how Lana stans look at Taylor's work as less of, if Lana came up with a record like this they would eat it up and acclaim it to the heavens 

 

Anyways, her numbers are absolutely insane, she's definetly on her own league along with Bad Bunny

[Cherry Blossom 21,536]

Karma is so fucking good what the heii.  I’m seeing her vision so hard. Like. It just works. I cant believe it. This song is so good

[bored 7,938]

I really think that this would've been a much stronger record with the tracklisting below. It definitely feels more pop than the folkmore era but still feels a progression on her sound. Unlike some of the other songs that feel like a regression. The 3am Edition really saved this album for me...

Spoiler

 

01. Midnight Rain

02. Maroon

03. Anti-Hero

04. Snow On The Beach

05. Would've, Should've, Could've

08. Labyrinth

09. Sweet Nothing

10. High Infidelity

11. You're On Your Own, Kid

12. Dear Reader

 

 

The most worrying thing about this project is that she could've put half this album out as From The Vault tracks for reputation and I don't think we'd question it? For example:

 

reputation (Taylor's Version):

I'm sure Lana has secret vocals in Labyrinth and other songs. 

[godsmonster 14,221]

it’s strange seeing all the Swifties implode on Twitter over this album
