shookspeare Posted July 4, 2022 Share Posted July 4, 2022 Before certain users pounce on me I'm a Swiftie and she is my most streamed artist. That being said I was and remain taken aback by the response that ATWFTMTVFTW elicited from fans and the GP upon release. Like the rest of the fans I was excited to hear the original version, but was let down by the rambling lyrics and the instrumental that lacks the luster of the truncated version. Yet the song reached #1 and was lauded as a career highlight by many when it really isn't even one of the better vault tracks. It seems to me that ATWTMVTVFTW is a case of massive hype and proportional mass DELUSION sowed among those who thirsted for the release of this track for so many years. Now that we got it is the GP afraid to admit that it's... just not really that good? That the original version outsold? I think this is a case where less really was more, but I'm curious whether opinion has changed at all now that a decent amount of time has passed since release.

State of Grace. Posted July 4, 2022 Share Posted July 4, 2022 - me when I like to pretend that I'm eDgY and not like the other girls ATW haters give it up. Its (one of) her best song. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brando Posted July 4, 2022 Share Posted July 4, 2022 The OG is GOAT, but the extended version also slays. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gatito Posted July 4, 2022 Share Posted July 4, 2022 i really don’t care for the 10 minute version i saw the short film and it was great but i don’t have the patience for songs that long Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PoisonedIvy Posted July 4, 2022 Share Posted July 4, 2022 It’s great But ATW has always gotten a wee bit too much attention Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By the Water Posted July 4, 2022 Share Posted July 4, 2022 ATW was always overrated but the TMV is the definitive version of the song Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trent W Posted July 4, 2022 Share Posted July 4, 2022 The song is very good, I just don’t have the time to listen to a 10min long track But the few times I’ve heard it, it’s a decent trip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue Monday Posted July 4, 2022 Share Posted July 4, 2022 You spilled I fear The power of the song is in its climax, which gets lost and muddled in the extended version. OG version >>>>> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeAg Posted July 4, 2022 Share Posted July 4, 2022 it’s not bad, but the 5 minute versions are just way better and more impactful and enjoyable to listen to imo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
