Awww i love “the man” but yeah, there were better single choices. That should have stayed a solid album track. I wonder if “paper rings” would have been a good single. I’ve been stanning “Paper Rings” since the day I first heard it and I always wished it had been a single. I still wish she would’ve included it in the Lover act for The Eras Tour. Imagine Max Martin on Paper Rings.

I believe he came out has "not straight." So kind of just ambiguous.

I know Swifties must be dying to hear my review of the album, so here it is: folkloreRedSpeak Nowevermore1989LoverMidnightsThe Tortured Poets DepartmentFearlessReputationTaylor SwiftOverall, it's a continuation of the decline in creativity in her music since her magnum opus, folklore. This album is so self-referential to the point of boring me and the one-note production throughout the record doesn't help with that feeling. Almost all of it sounds stale. I didn't love Midnights, but I at least saved a handful of songs from it on my first listen. Nothing on this album ended up being added to my library. Favorite tracks: loml, Florida We have VERRRY similar rankings.

She's definitely like the biggest pop star in the world right now, but she's no ICON/LEGEND. She is absolutely an icon and legend.

How far does it have to fall to go recurrent. Below #50?

I might be crazy but I kinda agree this is the clear first single. The “I Want To Kill Her” is the clear hook that gives it the gen z, unhinged, feral edge.

I made my own album called Folkmore. I am a big fan of Folklore over Evermore, so I sprinkled in some of those songs into Folklore replacing them tracks I don't much care for.

Cannot get this out of my head. This'll be huge. Can't get to get a chance to listen again.

She has yet to have a real solo-write hit ever since she left the country days if I’m not mistaken. I was already thinking My Boy Only Breaks His Favorite Toys might be the first or second single based on the catchy title, its track list placement, and having one of the only truly Gen z friendly runtimes. If she is out for a solo-write smash this era, then that would definitely lend more weight to that as a focus single. Producers want far more credit for writing these days. My friend who is in the industry says if you want a solo writing credit you have to tell the producer "this is the chord progression we are using, and we cannot stray from it at all." I think it's just a battle Swift is not wanting to fight, especially since she proved herself time and time again.

Now I’m curious and will have to check the wiki pages when I get a sec to see who produced each of the tracks on evermore and folklore (and whether there’s a commonality among my favourites). I don’t hate Jack as a producer the way it seems like most have been leaning. I think Midnights was fine from a production standpoint - other than it feeling a little overdone on singular ideas. I wouldn’t be upset if Jack was lead producer on most of the new album’s songs, but also wouldn’t be upset if Taylor ventured toward someone new (to her). The main reason I'm worried about Jack is those 1989 vault tracks felt very low-key Midnights and not the upbeat, energetic 1989 in the slightest.

Dan Nigro would quite literally never after the Deja Vu/Cruel Summer drama. I can fix this. No really I can.

Does it have to dip below 50 to go recurrent? It can last all summer. She should drop a video in May

I hope there's a third producer, too. What I give for her to work with Dan Nigro.

I guess if you zoom into that new photo you can see "ssner," unsurprisingly implying Dessner will be credited on this album.

I hope the album isn't only Jack Antonoffs minimalist synth-pop sound. Ugh, I fear it will be. I'm okay if with Antonoff, as long as he brings the energy. I'd love for of a "Green Light" or "I Wanna get Better" rockier sound from her.

Are all four versions available on CD? I would buy them bu only if I can get all four. I can't seem to find all four. Someone help?
Edit: Nevermind, I got one on Target ("The Manuscript") and the remaining three on the website.

I am very curious / excited to see first week numbers and positioning for this. My big Q's... 1) Will this capture the entire Top 10 again? Midnights registered points in the BB Top 10 ranging from 262 points (#10 - Vigilante Shit) to 517 points (#1 - Anti Hero). Based on todays chart (and assuming similar numbers to Midnights), "Like That" by Future/MB/Kendrick and "Too Sweet" by Hozier would still remain somewhere in the Top 10 ("Like That" is estimated to wrap the week at 292 points and "Too Sweet" estimated at 273). Right now, I am not thinking she will dethrone "Like That" from the Top 10 during release week, but it's not impossible. Hozier could drop some in the coming week, so theres a decent chance she will overcome that song in release week. 2) Will there be a surprise drop again the way we received "3 A.M"? 3) Will she break the internet again and have this sell over 2m first week? 1.) Yes, she just keeps getting bigger. She's that monster on the hill. 2.) No. We have 20 racks already. 3.) Yes. See #1

The entirety of "Anti-Hero" is insane, but particularly "sexy baby" and talking about her children killing her.
Also I believe in Beyonce's "Baby Boy" she they say "let's conceive an angel." But I remember when it came out there was no real source on this. What a weird line.

Did "Last Night" for real fall out of the Top 50? I thought this day would never come. Happy about it though.

Seriously though, wasn't the promo for Midnights similar? I don't recall hearing anything from the first announcement until the week of the NFL re-announcement.

Ya'll she's busy whittling down the Evermore set to only "Champagne Problems" to make room for this.

Ahh ok. I guess I never really paid attention to the lyrics in detail LOL. You should! It's some of her funniest and best lyrical work.
