Aaron Posted November 16, 2019 Share Posted November 16, 2019 I don’t get why Lover’s callouts are so low when it’s basically just Thinking Out Loud/Perfect 6.0. You’d think the locals would be stanning Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tbh This is much bigger than “Pray” but yeah but Sam singles so far has reached at least platinum and top ten in pop radio, this era is doing wonders for them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Walk_Away21 Posted November 16, 2019 Share Posted November 16, 2019 I’m so confused about radio They eat up these someone you love / perfect / all of me type songs and suddenly this song isn’t just doing mediocre, it’s outright last? Make it make sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
liberalmusiclover Posted November 16, 2019 Share Posted November 16, 2019 She should’ve released more radio-friendly singles like “I Think He Knows” or “Cruel Summer.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Make it make sense. Well... as someone who liked TOL & Perfect, Lover just doesn't hit the same. The vocals are produced really weirdly and it's not nearly as memorable/catchy. That's strictly my personal opinion, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lover (album)'s production sounds weirdly or low quality/bad mixed on most of its songs tbh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buffy Posted November 16, 2019 Share Posted November 16, 2019 That’s what happens when you release ME and YNTCD as the first 2 singles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The GP really isn't here for her anymore. This is sad Lover may not be my favorite song, but it's still cute and doesn't deserve this. I think her callouts would be fine with better songs. The issue is purely quality this time around imo. All 3 singles from the album have been subpar. Compare them to her radio peak of 1989, the quality difference is noticeable.

its_britney_bitch Posted November 16, 2019 Share Posted November 16, 2019 First NRO and now this, this just doesn’t make sense. People who aren’t usually fans of Taylor and Katy love those songs but they get terrible call outs. I don’t get it, who are they asking? Should’ve went with Death By a Thousand Cuts tho Can’t believe Swifties can’t get over Cruel Summer, it was hyped up before anybody even heard it and it’s like they didn’t wanna admit it’s generic repetitive garbage Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t like any of the singles from Lover and I’m not surprised at their underperformance. In fact, I found the album to be a pretty boring and flat listen. I’m not a Taylor stan but I usually enjoy her singles... from the self-titled days to reputation. I even like Ready For It But nothing on Lover sticks for me.

Thuggin Posted November 16, 2019 Share Posted November 16, 2019 Have all of her singles since LWYMMD except Delicate been last on callouts? Tbh callouts are getting predictable. On the opposite end, Khalid, Post Malone, and Maroon 5 singles always get amazing callouts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ME! and YNTCD are both legit bad songs to me and Lover is good but not close to Wildest Dreams, Style, Blank Space etc at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
