If they don’t release ‘My Boy…’ next then they should just stop tbh Nahh, "Down Bad" is the only remaining hit on the album.

I'd say so, especially since album listening became more prevalent in the streaming era vs. the digital sales much to everyone's surprise.

A lot more slow songs than I would have liked. "Taste" and "Bed Chem" are the highlights. I'll give a it a better listen on my commute tuesday.

This video is very 'Death Becomes Her' lmao, first place my mind went to. It is exactly the intentional reference.

That unrelated note is exactly related to what I think she should focus on.

Anyone claiming that Taylor still needs to do anything to cement her legacy is not arguing in good faith IMO. The legacy is signed, sealed, delivered, and actively being added to. The problem is she still seems to think that. Why the constant special editions? I just don't think it's the right route to take if she really feels the need to prove more.

The vault tracks are great! "Say Don't Go," "Is It Over Now?," "Timeless," "I Can See You," "Very First Night," and "Nothing New" are all one I am shocked didn't make the first album.

A friends said to my "an average person on the street probably can't name three Taylor Swift songs." I think she should focus on hits a bit more as it's the thing that will ultimately keep up her legacy, because I definitely see what my friends is saying. This is an exquisite prime example of why anecdotal stories aren't real evidence. lol Taylor has like 36 top 5 hits and what, 10 #1s? She has more top 5 hits than any other artist in history. Her career could decline now permanently without another additional hit to her name and her legacy is already cemented from the near 20 year span of her career. These kinds of comments really remind me how much people underestimate her impact and status (despite all evidence being literally everywhere to the contrary) continuously for whatever reason. I am sure most who actually listen to music could name a few Taylor songs. It's like you just totally blanked on the fact she literally just had the two biggest hits of her career. Yeah, but peaks don't translate familiarity. For example, I bet people can name way more Britney songs than they can Mariah. It's something I think song association and familiarity is something Taylor struggles with. And of course, there's no data to measure that unless you polled all of America, so yes, it is just a feeling. Doesn't mean it's necessarily wrong.

I think she has just realized that it is more effective to sell 50k album downloads more every week than try to keep the fans buying individual singles. #1 album always creates headlines, a ten-place climb on Hot 100 does not. A friends said to my "an average person on the street probably can't name three Taylor Swift songs." I think she should focus on hits a bit more as it's the thing that will ultimately keep up her legacy, because I definitely see what my friends is saying.

This album is the swiftie bubble, period. It sounds like she's parodying herself outside of a few of the more popular songs. I don't care if it's done 6million sps. The next album is not going to do that if it's full of dull downtempo songs with cringey speak easy lyrics I'm a huge fan and also do agree she needs to change up the sound and bring back some ENERGY. Midnights gained a lot of news fans, TTPD I'm not so sure. This album lost so many of my friends who were more casual on her.

I think I made a Red (Your Version) somewhere, anyway, here's mine:
01. State of Grace 02. Red 03. Treacherous 04. I Knew You Were Trouble 05. All Too Well 06. 22 07. Forever Winter 08. We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together 09. Stay Stay Stay 10. Nothing New 11. Holy Ground 12. Come Back, Be Here 13. The Lucky One 14. Babe 15. The Very First Night 16. Begin Again
Makes the album less plodding and slow.
Here my Midnights:
01. Lavender Haze 02. Maroon 03. Anti-Hero 04. Snow on the Beach 05. You're On Your Own Kid 06. Would've Could've Should've 07. Paris 08. Hits Different 09. Bejeweled 10. The Great War 11. Karma 12. Bigger Than the Whole Sky 13. You're Losing Me

Evermore has such high highs and low lows for me. This is exactly right. "Right Where Your Left Me" and "Champagne Problems" are some of her best work ever, but much of it sounds like "Folklore" b-sides.

NYT just did a ranking of all her albums citing Rep and Speak Now as her best. Anyone have the full list?

I agree. Not the time to release a song about the downsides of being famous.

Got it, the site is now slowly and surely being updated. I am now vaguely remembering its resurgence.

As the months have passed I think this is my favorite on the entire album. I love when she writes about things that are seemingly fictional (big "The Bolter" fan too). And I disagree, I think this one sounds phenomenal on the radio. There are multiple hooks, despite being pretty low-key and dark.
