I’m hoping we get lots of rep variants and alt covers I’ll be buying them ALL The vault tracks made me love 1989 even more I didn’t really like it that much before because of songs like shake it off, bad blood and wildest dreams but the vault tracks cancel those out so it’s a 10/10 Not liking Wildest Dreams is like kicking puppies what the fuck? 1 Quote Last.FM | Discogs | JOYRIDE Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Debut as a last one would be a cute idea but Reputation holds more power to be the last one. Yes but it makes more sense to end her rerecordings era with self titled. She gets her name back 1 Quote Last.FM | Discogs | JOYRIDE Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cause she's dead" would be a perfect middle finger to Scooter to show that the stolen versions Taylor is dead 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Especially Slut!, it's like Blank Space's writing! She hasn't really re-visited that type of writing since then, and if you really pay attention to the evolution of her writing, you can see a distinct difference between 1989 writing and current writing. And for suburban legends, she would come up with some better lyrics if she wrote that today.....now come on. BTW- this is coming from someone who believes that ATW10 was partially made up! 1 Quote "I want to stay home, be left alone- Someone make up my mind so I don't have to decide" https://www.last.fm/user/fakeeyelash13- my last fm <33 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

godsmonster 14,215 Posted November 3, 2023 I’ve noticed 1989TV is much more synth heavy, and has louder backing vocals 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Embach 41,645 Posted November 3, 2023 So, just now I finished listening to 1989 TV for the very first time and I'm dropping my first thoughts here: • Out Of The Woods TV is her best re-recorded song. Masterclass, perfection, brilliant. Definitely million times better than the original, the details in production are more clear and the vocals are super strong too! Blank Space TV was amazing too, the second best one off the record. • The Vault Tracks were so boring. Like they didn't bring nothing new to the table, like sonically and lyrically nothing new or exciting. I find the standard songs more exciting than The Vault Tracks. And I agree with others that The Vault Tracks were quite Midnights-y. I kind of hoped for them to be louder. But my favorite Vault Track is "Is It Over Now", it's super catchy and powerful with the word play and the melodies are super reminiscent to Out Of The Woods. It had the intense which I hoped and wanted the other Vault Tracks had. The bridge was also so fucking epic!!!!! • Other songs were nicely re-recorded the quality in production seems to be a lot more crisp and clearer which I liked. • Style and Shake It Off were the weakest re-recordings on the album. I agree with others that Style seemed to be quite rushed, like the production quality was not as clear as the others and seemed like made by karaoke Youtube channels. Vocals were still good. But with Shake It Off, the vocal performance was so weird, like the vocals were quite pitched? But it didn't the ruin the vibe of her other vocal performances on the album. • Clean aka my favorite song from 1989 - the TV version needs to grow a bit more because it also seems it was kinda too loud instrumentally for me but I was also so used to the original version, so I understand why it needs time for me to grow. • I adored New Romantics TV. The chorus was kinda too loud and messy instrumentally maybe but I wasn't that into the original version at first place because the song was already "screaming" to much. But TV one has better power effect for me. I also can relate to the song somehow. • The other songs that were my other favorites or songs that weren't my favorites (but which I liked) in the original version soundes the same for me in TV and my opinon didn't change about them at all. • I really loved the lyric videos and the reuse of 1989 Tour's visuals. The other visuals were cute too! I loved that in some parts they used her handwriting as a font for lyric videos. • Her vocals were super strong in this overall, perhaps her best vocals performance in her career. She hit high vocals and she hit the low vocals. Superb amazing! The reason why the original 1989 wasn't my biggest favorite was that her vocals were too screechy for me to listen to, kinda like Halsey's vocals. But with TV the vocals improved 10000% • LET'S FAST FORWARD TO 300 AWKWARD BLIND DATES LATER, IF SHE'S GOT BLUE EYES, I WILL SURMISE THAT YOU'LL PROBABLY DATE HER, YOU DREAM OF MY MOUTH BEFORE IT CALLED YOU A "LYING TRAITOR", YOU SEARCH IN EVERY MODEL'S BED FOR SOMETHING GREATER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bluechemtrails 26,623 Posted November 5, 2023 I think she did a good job with this re-recording, but I miss something special like the ten minute version of All to Well on Red or a surprising collab... The whole album feels more like a routine job than something truly extraordinary, unlike Red 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
