Arrows Posted August 1, 2022 Share Posted August 1, 2022 Something Taylor’s really been smart at is slowing down her musical evolution on purpose imo. Many artists play all their cards with their first few albums, leaving little room for growth. Taylor knew that by not using up all her tricks quickly, she could prolong her career. Could she have written folklore at the age of 20? She probably could, but the point is - she didn’t try to. Could she have gone for more “mature” pop with rep and Lover? Absolutely. Folklore was arguably the first time she didn’t intentionally dumb down her music. I hope we’ve seen the end of Taylor simplifying her music and hopefully will aim for something even greater in the future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I pray to God she chooses the right damn singles. I'm convinced Taylor hasn't sent anything to pop radio that they've wanted to play since Delicate, but I have a really good feeling that she's gonna pick right this time. Hopefully the ME! catastrophe was the reckoning we think it was for her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IBeMe Posted August 1, 2022 Share Posted August 1, 2022 If Taylor reads this tweet it means Taylor will move away from the Folklore sound / Woman of The Woods vibez. She's going to go back to ultra concrete city sleek sounds for TS10 I guess I wouldnt mind more Folklore but I think a new sound would be beneficial. Something like alternative pop & rock. Like Kate Bush. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ithinkforme13 Posted August 1, 2022 Share Posted August 1, 2022 If the TS10 lead is coming, it'll have to be a ME! type song selection or anything by Aaron for her to flop with how easily she gets streams these days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beyonnaise Posted August 1, 2022 Share Posted August 1, 2022 Folklore will be her true musical classic decades from now when all is said and done. Red laid the groundwork, but the true flex of her artistry came after she had moved past pop and was left under isolation. There's a reason it got her a third AOTY.

Honestly, I think there will be a sort of Folklore phase where it’s elevated to be toe-to-toe with Red in the eyes of critics and cultural commentators, but I foresee a brighter future further down the line where Evermore is considered to be her best album and her most underrated (given that it lives in Folklore’s shadow and will obviously never catch up commercially).

IBeMe Posted August 2, 2022 Share Posted August 2, 2022 she deff did not need to do the whole umbrella thing it makes it look like she is affected by the comments Now I worry that if she is at an award show and the host makes a joke about this that she'll have a visible angry or sad face when the camera pans over to her for her reaction It would have been a SERVE if she just walked in and gave the camera a grin or something Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaspurr Posted August 2, 2022 Share Posted August 2, 2022 (edited) I had a dream about Taylor's release strategy. Speak Now TV 1989 TV TS10 + Debut TV TS10 and Debut TV were released in July next year, on the same day – 7th. It was like a bundle and she was like, "That's my gift to everyone who's supported me since the beginning of my career."

Jaspurr Posted August 2, 2022 Share Posted August 2, 2022 august is a perfect pop song but gold rush is the peak of the Taylor & Hack collabs. I guess she can save a sweet spot for him again on TS10 since it encourages him to do his best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cleanromantic Posted August 2, 2022 Share Posted August 2, 2022 This "controversy" is gonna be gone by next month because the discourse is not about climate change . People are just using it as fuel for their "OMG I knew she's evil" narrative and they've been waiting with baited breath for something to stick for a while now. Just like they were trying to get her dragged for writing Carolina because the author is "problametic". There isn't a low they wouldn't stoop to . It was obvious this was coming after her new career peak for the last 3 years tbh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ithinkforme13 Posted August 2, 2022 Share Posted August 2, 2022 And then the Amsterdam controversy takes over and we'll see how she handles that. I still think if she showed some remorse and took responsibility and vowed to do better it would of gone over so much better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
