Taylor Swift

[Terrence Loves Me 72,853]

after 3 listens i just think this album isn't interesting in the slightest, it's so obviously b sides from folklore and doesn't really shine as its own entity, i mean there are 4 or 5 good songs, but the rest is boring, i miss her pop music or quirky country songs, i've never been a fan of folk music. she suits the style very well and is really good at it, but something about evermore feels like leftovers

[cellophane 762]

Happy birthday, queen!

 

On a separate note, this remix SLAPS

Never been a fan of Taylor Swift (quite the opposite, truly), and Folklore wasnt exactly my cup of tea either (even if it was the first project by her that I could listen to as a whole, it came as a quite uninteresting album for me, as well). Listened yesterday to Evermore and I think it shows a growth. The songs sound richer, less basic, somehow more artistic. The structures and her voice are still so mainstream and not so inspired for my taste, but its definetly nice to see that she's developing her output towards other directions.

k i changed my mind i like all the songs except closure thats an absolute discography lowlight

idk anymore whether i prefer folklore or not tbh 

the growth arc....

[mintconfetti 478]

This is such a beautiful album.

My favorite tracks are Ivy, Champagne Problems, Willow, Gold Rush, Tis the Damn Season. Tolerate It and Cowboy Like Me are so good too.

Ivy is a poetic masterpiece and the bridge in Champagne Problems made me want to cry.

[necessary sacrifice 8,865]

Ivy makes me think of Pattie Boyd so much.... I wonder if she inspired it

[Trash Magic 28,435]

I think both albums suffer from being bloated with a lot of superfluous tracks that are super bland

Champagne Problems sounds just like Never Grow Up

Dorothea is a cool kinda Bob Dylan-lite moment. It is also TOO similar to this song to be a coincidence imo "When I was younger" being exactly the same melody and wording

 

 

 

My playlist with the best songs from each:

 

1. happiness

2. ivy

3. seven

4. august

5. invisible string

6. dorothea

7. no body, no crime

8. mad woman

9. my tears ricochet

10. this is me trying

11. mirrorball

12. peace

 

these songs have me listening to Taylor a lot for the first time since Speak Now in 2011 

[Inferno Euphoria 6,494]

I finished listening to Evermore and while its not as good as Folklore, I still think it's a great album and I'm happy that she re-discovered her country side on this album. Marjorie, No Body No Crime, Evermore, Cowboy Like Me, Coney Island, Ivy, Champagne Problems & Gold Rush are all great.

ah yes, however the itunes release i think is later, in order for her to boost physical sales now, and then boost digital sales in a few weeks to keep the album atop the charts (i believe that is the strategy)

remember how like a few weeks after folklore came out she released the lakes on itunes? im trying to figure out how long after folklores release that was so i can do the math for when the two new songs for evermore will hit itunes

im REALLY anticipating "right where you left me" !!!

[Mer 62,097]

Champagne Problems—Gold Rush—Tis The Damn Season is the trinity. 

 

Honestly my opinion on the songs changed soooo much from first listen to one week later. 

[Make me your Dream Life 88,345]

ahh real quick real quick 

Spoiler

also, evermore's great but it's been growing on me even more. such a great holiday record.

3. Gold Rush
4. Exile
5. Champagne Problems
6. My Tears Ricochet

[Dominikx4 25,416]

I’m so sick of the epiphany slander. That song deserves the world 

[Liz Taylor Blues 18,785]

The way the alleged ultimate edition contains none of the highlights

[domandapiano 12,112]

Yeah that ultimate edition is booty. Of course it has some of the better songs on it but the omission of epiphany, seven, ivy, the last great American dynasty, peace, long story short, tis the damn season, etc just why? Why isn’t the ultimate edition literally all of the tracks? 

[Danny Milk 2,469]

is it real or is that just him putting his faves in one album?

like i get that he's an insider but he's a stan like us too
