Liz Taylor Blues 18,738 Posted April 18 Courtney Love feeling vindicated I fear..... Ultra Common Courtney W.... taylor take a few years off from over exposure and the overculture...... you don't have to be a poet.....ypu can go back to making the music everyone loves from you..... she really wants to be lana so bad but lana works because she's just being herself.....also she should have told her mob to leave Joe alone most of this album isn't even about him..... 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
never2heaven 6,761 Posted April 18 Spoiler i’ve only listened to a few songs on my way to college today but as someone who only ever really listens to folklore, i do enjoy this album! i think but daddy i love him might be my favourite atm but that might change cause i’m finding most of these to need a second listen before i have many thoughts on them. i do think the album is a little bit repetitive though Eeek sorry i think her vocals on this album are really great i wish i understood all the lore going on in this thread 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Missing Shade of Blue 2,400 Posted April 18 I'm a very casual listener, but I've recently really gotten into some folklore and midnights tracks, so I'm actually quite eager to have a listen. Let's go! 5 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Defo inbalanced. One of those songs has bad vocals but since its a leak I'll give it the benefit of the doubt. This album is like Midnights meets Folklore in a way. Not finished with this album but the back half of it is more appealing in the songwriting aspect, but the tone of the record, still coming from her releases in the past 4 years is almost one dimensional but i suppose its cute aside some of its boring edges. Gonna finish this when Im not panicking my ass off for my music course haha 2 Quote SOPHIE • ARCA • SKY FERREIRA • YEULE • CHARLI XCX • WILL TOLEDO • JAMIE STEWART • CHELSEA WOLFE • YUNG LEAN • ECCO2K • NATURAL SNOW BUILDINGS • EARTHEATER • FIONA APPLE • BJÖRK • ANNA VON HAUSSWOLFF • KRISTIN MICHAEL HAYTER • RICHARD D JAMES • DEADMAU5 • MICHAEL GIRA • LIZ PHAIR • LANA DEL REY • TINASHE • FKA TWIGS • DEATH GRIPS • SNOW STRIPPERS • A.

cherrytropico 11,076 Posted April 18 on my 2nd listen i like it better than i initially did i would raise my rating from 6.5 to 8. i even warmed up to ‘i can do it with a broken heart’, when previously that was an unlistenable track. idk what changed lol, i think this album just needed one more listen for me to absorb it better, because at first the tracks were blending together and sounding monotonous. now each song actually sounds rlly good and unique. Spoiler i love how the overall sound is so moody, ‘fresh out the slammer’ and ‘i can fix him’ sound like they can be from an indie artist. a lot of ppl said it’s midnights 2.0 but that couldn’t be more inaccurate. i think this is a really fresh, mature sound for taylor. i hope people give it a chance and listen to it more than once. 2 Quote we’re gonna party like it’s 1949 ⠀⠀ ⠀⠀ ⠀⠀ ⠀⠀ ⠀ ⠀ :¨ ·.· ¨: ⠀⠀ ⠀⠀ ⠀⠀ ⠀⠀ ⠀ `· . ꔫ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Thats why they call me Dita 9,765 Posted April 18 Spoiler Are people really thinking the lyrics are that bad? I’ve not listened so can’t comment on sound, but from some of the lyrics I’ve read here I think they’re ok? one of my main criticisms of Taylor usually is that I dont like her songwriting.. it always reads juvenile to me and a bit too “polished” and in a way.. trying too hard the lyrics I’ve read so far seem more raw, stripped back and more like a story (or poem I should say).. without caring too much on it being perfect. It sounds a bit angry, I’m actually interested to hear the sound all of the above is not about the Charlie Puth lyric though, that sounds awful lol 1 Quote like a dream, you glide on the water and like a star, I shine from the shore Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
