Not to sound stupid or anything, but what's that slam all about? Like I get the whole Katy Perry has never won a Grammy thing if that's what she's trying to get at... but what does Imogen Heap have to do with anything? Please educate me, lol.

Ranking upon first listen:
1. All You Had to Do Was Stay 2. Out of the Woods 3. How You Get the Girl
4. Shake It Off 5. Blank Space 6. New Romantics
7. I Wish You Would 8. I Know Places 9. Style 10. Wonderland 11. Wildest Dreams 12. Clean 13. Bad Blood 14. This Love
15. You R in Love 16. Welcome to New York
This effort is less musically-diverse than Speak Now(my fav.) or Red, but it seems to draw influences from many artists. "Out of the Woods" sounds like Bleachers "I Wish You Would" sounds like HAIM "Wildest Dreams" sounds like Lana Del Rey "Bad Blood" and "Blank Space" sounds like Lorde etc. Not that that's a bad thing though. But I would probably tie this as my least favorite album along with her debut. It lacks the highlight album track, imo. (ex: "You're Not Sorry", "Enchanted", "All Too Well") "Style" and "Bad Blood" are possible single choices, given the response, but I'm not really fond of either.

how you get the girl is the filler-ish track of the album. taylor's filler is better than your faves' lead singles. that is all. i f**king love HTGTG lmao i do too! so that should speak to what i think of the album as a whole. how you get the girl stuck out to me because most of the album has a subtle emotional weight to it...i can't quite put my finger on it, but the album overall feels very mature, without being stiff (i'm basically echoing mrossp24 here). HYGTG and SIO are 'lightweight' in comparison to the rest of the songs on this - not there is anything wrong with that at all, in fact i'd say it was necessary to split up the weight of the album with a couple of lighter moments - but HYGTG sticks out to me a bit because it's one of those moments. SIO is probably the biggest oddball just in that it doesn't have the light 80s inspired blanket lying over its production that the other songs do, but it's the hit lead of the album so that's really not a problem. i don't know if i even care to get into the singles debate...everything is so flawlessly executed, there is not one single song here that would be a miss except for Welcome to New York (which she obviously intended to just be an opener anyway). even the deluxe tracks are fantastic.

What I gathered is Taylor is Imogen's grammy... Katy's a pos generic tea kettle lol Taylor has 7 Grammy's. Katy has 0. She's spilling the "tea." It's subtle but oh so obvious lol. It is excruciatingly immature. I hope Katy takes the high road.

The verses on Wildest Dreams are perfection.. She can still write kickass pop lyrics that are catchy. I don't like the "wildest dreams ahhhh" part though.
