(now if Debut TV comes in December I would greatly appreciate it but I don't think that's super likely rn) Did she really think she could get AOTY 2 years in a row sksksks so she could promote it on tour since touring has been by far her most effective promo. the stuff we call good promo really doesn't affect the charts anymore which is why a-listers have ditched doing them. she wasn't going to jump straight into another tour after finishing a two year one. also taylor was clearly surprised at midnights winning aoty and likely was planning that ttpd would get her the 4th win not midnights. a coachella performance would make sense if she wants to promote new music without committing to another massive tour. at the same, i don't buy any insider since taylor's team is extremely tightlipped.

By the Water Posted October 23 Posted October 23 I don't care if it's SHS, Down Bad or GAS. I just hope we get a third single 7
Tusk Posted October 23 Posted October 23 Never in my wildest dreams that I would have thought that she'd drag out the re-recordings like this.
IBeMe Posted October 23 Posted October 23 am i the only one who is happy she is dragging out the re recordings? I have issues with endings and once she releases the final TV it will be the end of an era 7

Holiest Dreams Posted October 23 Posted October 23 The fact that Florence had to turn her Insta comments off on the post she made about Taylor because certain fanbases (mostly of the alt-pop demographic) were being vile to Taylor. Patti Smith had to do the same thing when she posted about TTPD. But ThE sWiFtIeS!!1!1!1!1! 2 11

(now if Debut TV comes in December I would greatly appreciate it but I don't think that's super likely rn) Did she really think she could get AOTY 2 years in a row sksksks Despite its long run at #1, I think the album is on the "less mainstream" side of her catalog, and if you view it through that lens it makes sense why she would drop it while in the middle of the tour. It's a bit more of a "for the fans" type thing rather than a "for the general public." On top of that, she wanted to purge the past relationship drama, avoid the election cycle, and strike while the iron was hottest to aim for her biggest possible first week (but she could have had even bigger if she simply announced it as a double album and put it on shelves as a double album in April, but that's none of my business). 1 9

Flames2Embers Posted October 23 Posted October 23 4 hours ago, Taylor fanboy said: I'm afraid Halsey was a Lover era oomf. Can I just say that Bad At Love is a Taylor song Taylor didn't write if it makes sense. I think this about Graveyard and You Should Be Sad. Halsey was channeling her Swiftian penmanship that era. 2
Cleanromantic Posted October 23 Posted October 23 Ttpd was an artistic risk no matter what that side of the internet says. Releasing a deeply dark and negative album with wordy lyrics talking about a relationship that got her so much backlash and her hatred and frustration with fame and her fans at her commercial peak was not what anyone expected. She could've gotten away with another Lover or 1989 given the success of Cruel Summer but she chose to refocus on her OG fanbase with the album, probably in an effort to chase out the eras tour bandwagoners and the annoying folklore stans. 10 1

You'd think they'd be used to it by now considering that Taylor and Florence have both been very open about their sincere friendship and mutual respect for the majority of their careers by now. Florence literally told a magazine like a decade ago "I try to see Taylor every time I go to New York." 3
Klein Posted October 23 Posted October 23 Do we still not have an idea of how international fans can get their hands on The Anthology vinyl?
Aiya Posted October 23 Posted October 23 I wish she'd release The Anthology as second part of the album in November. Instead dropping it all at once 1

Squall Posted October 23 Posted October 23 (edited) Unfortunately, odds are that my friend's company isn't going to renew their contract with Luminate next year so he asked me which artists I needed before the year ends. I asked him to give me Taylor's numbers as late as possible. I may have the units for each song but idk yet since I don't know how annoying it is to extract numbers and I don't want to be greedy. I will let you know and post them anyway, most likely in late december. Edited October 23 by Squall 5
Taylor fanboy Posted October 23 Posted October 23 TTPD is just not for everyone. That has been her approach every after AOTY wins. TS12 will be Red / Lover 2.0/3.0. Although she kinda broke this cycle when Midnights won AOTY, it was supposed to be a Non-AOTY but palatable and easy to digest, one song for anyone, type of album from her. Anyway, where is the damn Down Bad remix and music video? And what happened to So High School being tested as a single? Did it tank in UK radio callouts?
