I'm so depressed, I act like it's my birthday every day
I'm so obsessed with him, but he avoids me like the plague
I cry a lot, but I am so productive, it's an art

I think she needs something that will thoroughly disturb her comfortability in the industry. Some of her best works came from a sort of challenge (Red to 1989 being her first attempts to do a strong country to pop crossover era, Reputation being a product of her downfall + her Katy Perry feud, and Folklore/Evermore being a product of the pandemic). 

 

Whenever she's comfortable, she starts producing mediocrity such as this one. The marketing is great and I'm sure her visuals will be top notch...but the album itself sucks. Her lyricism here is some of the weakest yet (with the Charlie Puth line being her absolute career worst) and the entire album just sounds so one-note, but in a bad way. The latter issue is a Jack Antonoff issue, but Taylor still gets a bit of blame from me for that since she has some sort of control what she produces with that man. 

 

I'm hoping she considers a genre-shift for the next album. She's getting way too comfortable and I think a challenge will only do her good. 

I remember rumors that this was gonna be a rock album 😭😭😭

That's what I thought. There was another track that reminded me of Lana but I can't recall at the moment.

Didn't she say something about how she sings in the bg on some songs anonymously? Or am I making stuff up

Cos if I had to bet coins, she's on that track

I'm still laughing how this time last year half the fanbase was in deep denial about the Joe/Matty situation and gaslighting themselves into thinking Joe and Taylor were still together even after CNN reported it.

You look like Stevie Nicks in ‘75

Omg you're gonna start a "Taylor is singing background on Beyonce's Bodygaurd" Part II. I'm pretty sure People had to run a full article putting down that rumor LOL

When she says cosmic love in down bad, it sounds like Lana until you turn down the vocals on Apple Music. It sounds like Taylor. 

[NikoGo 52,284]

I really wish she would have explored the western sound of I Can Fix Him and Guilty As Sin more

Ah, we love FatM references

The background instrumental at the bridge and outro for down bad is SOOOO Emile Hayine coded god I could cry

Fortnight might be my favorite. It feels like being high lmao

Okay I transcribed The Manuscript lyrics

I'll put them behind a spoiler tag for those who want to listen to it unsurprised

Spoiler

now and then she rereads the manuscript of the entire torrid affair
they compare their licenses
he said I’m not a donor but
I’d give you my heart if you needed it
she rolled her eyes and said you’re a professional
he said “no, just a good Samaritan”
he said that if the sex is half as good as the conversation was
soon they’d be pushing strollers
but soon it was over

in the age of him she’d wish she was 30
and made coffee every morning in a french press
afterwards she only ate kids cereal
and couldn’t sleep unless it was in her mother’s bed
then she dated boys who were her own age
with dartboards on the backs of their doors
she thought about how he said
since she was so wise beyond her years
everything had been above ??
she wasn’t sure

and the years passed like scenes of a show
the professor said to write what you know looking backwards
might be the only way to move forward
and the actors were hitting their marks
and the slow dance was alight with the sparks
and the tears fell in synchronicity with the scars

and at last, she knew what the agony had been for
the only thing that’s left is the manuscript
one last souvenir from my trip to your shores
now and then I reread the manuscript
but the story isn’t mine anymore

This is my favorite but I’m gonna buy the black dog the manuscript is the most boring song I’ve heard in my life even more boring than sweet nothing, I really hope we get more songs this is the best album she has ever done

[mssainttropez 13,409]

The Manuscript-

Spoiler

It’s a cute lil piano ballad <3 nothing special though tbh, maybe with more listens I’ll like it better
