Taylor Swift

I’m just gonna keep the vault tracks + girl at home tbh. The original Red is just better to me. These re-recordings are nice but the production of the original just sounds richer & more complete. The re-recordings kinda just sound like she’s doing karaoke covers of her own songs to fanmade instrumental remakes from youtube or something (good remakes tho, but it’s just not as good.)

& I really don’t care about the Scooter mess enough to not listen to the original anymore

He’s def an asshole I don’t like him but I just really don’t care enough to listen to (imo) an inferior version of the album so money goes to millionaire 1 instead of millionaire 2. Said this before already but they got enough money it really doesn’t matter lol. She’s taking ownership of her work & I think that’s great, most of her fans are gonna stream the re-recordings anyway so she’ll be fine if I don’t jshdjf.

the way that treacherous and the last time kind of sound better than the originals but she completely butchered i knew you were trouble and we are never ever getting back together??? regardless, i think the vault tracks were cute - you can definitely tell she was trying new things writing and production-wise at the time

I was honestly a bit nervous for the 10 minute version of All Too Well because it is such an iconic song but Taylor delivered 

On first listen a few of the songs sounded so off to me more so than Fearless but on 2nd and 3rd listen it def grew. I think I like the rerecordings more than the original versions (except I Knew You Were Trouble, that drop sounded too off...) but especially the title track it's amazing

anyways here’s the real reason i came to this thread  just went to starbucks and asked the barista (my neighbour) for the taylor drink and she literally sighed and said it comes out tomorrow (i’m pretty sure it comes out today, the 12th? to coincide with the album release?) and i think she just couldn’t be bothered to make it

isn’t it just a non fat latte with caramel? Maybe she just hates swifties. Sounds pretty easy to make. I’ll just make it at home bc I think Starbucks pricing is ridiculous (fuck the patriarchy)

She had a good record deal to have the net worth she has, She should have the majority song writing royalty, Hell didn’t born to die & lanas other early albums’ masters get sold off earlier this year? We don’t know the specifics but this isn’t a new practice or anything of not owning your masters. She probably would’ve gone broke buying her originals. I didn’t mean to rant  it just bugs me whenever someone brings this particular subject up,

I’ll shut up,

Me too 😂😂😂

I fear for 1989 TV and Reputation TV if she doesn't bring Max Martin back to redo the songs he did. He's probs very expensive to work with compared to other producers but remaking a literal pop master's instrumentals just doesn't work, it'll always sound cheaper.

My biggest takeaways as a swiftie since 2006:

 

- cried at “nothing new”—the sheer power of hearing Taylor worry at 22 that her allure would fade, while we sit here now, knowing she is about to turn 32 w/ that same album charting #1 AGAIN, fresh off a year w/ her 3rd AOTY Grammy win & 2 of her most acclaimed albums EVER!

 

- I AM SO EXTREMELY SHOOK AT AWT10MV!!! SHE REALLY TOOK THE CROWN JEWEL OF HER CATALOG & MADE IT AN IMPOSSIBLE 10X BETTER?! SOMEHOW?!!!! I WAS NOT EXPECTING THIS?! the new phrasing & production are just sheer perfection & all the new details she’s sharing with us just-😭

 

- I really love Red TV — It allows us to go so much deeper and get way more diaristic details about a pivotal year of heartbreak in her life. The new production is so detailed and clear. The rock songs I loved are rockier, the folksy heartbreak ballads even more crisp and biting. I love the singles even more than I used to, even though I play those least that’s about to change! The 10-minute version of All Too Well is her best song. The Phoebe collab! Synthpop vault tracks!! I have so many emotions!!!!

omg blank space (taylor's version) instrumental leaked 😍

 

[ExoticBrick 436]

The Red singles on TV sound like demos. Where's the vocoder?? 

 

And I hate how she doesn't even attempt to replicate aspects of the originals. The bridge on Come Back Be Here TV

Taylor when Swifties begin slandering the production of her Red version:

I actually love this version, aside from 22 and Stay Stay Stay and the Ed Sheeran vocal collabs, the songs would be 1000 better without him (songs I never liked)
