discotitzz Posted September 21, 2022 Posted September 21, 2022 The meltdowns y’all are having over a song title is why she doesn’t talk to us anymore
chiliam Posted September 21, 2022 Posted September 21, 2022 Guys, this ***** is winning again. The reveal was dissapointed for fans but local are having kiki with all the lottery meme. The Swifties are smart, they edited the clip with lottery music and sound... And local share it like wildfire.

State of Grace. Posted September 21, 2022 Posted September 21, 2022 Quote I’ve never talked about this publicly before, because, well, it’s dorky. But I also have, in my mind, secretly, established genres categories for lyrics I write. Three of them, to be exact. They are affectionately titled Quill Lyrics, Fountain Pen Lyrics, and Glitter Gel Pen Lyrics. I know this sounds confusing but I’ll try to explain. I came up with these categories based on what writing tool I imagine having in my hand when I scribbled it down, figuratively. I don’t actually have a quill. Anymore. I broke it once when I was mad. I categorize certain songs of mine in the ‘Quill’ style if the words and phrasings are antiquated, if I was inspired to write it after reading Charlotte Brontë or after watching a movie where everyone is wearing poet shirts and corsets. If my lyrics sound like a letter written by Emily Dickinson’s great grandmother while sewing a lace curtain, that’s me writing in the Quill genre. I will give you an example from one of my songs I’d categorize as Quill. “How’s one to know I’d meet you where the spirit meets the bones In a faith forgotten land In from the snow, your touch brought forth an incandescent glow Tarnished but so grand” Moving on to Lyricism category #2: Fountain Pen style. I’d say most of my lyrics fall into this category. Fountain pen style means a modern storyline or references, with a poetic twist. Taking a common phrase and flipping its meaning. Trying to paint a vivid picture of a situation, down to the chipped paint on the door frame and the incense dust on the vinyl shelf. Placing yourself and whoever is listening right there in the room where it all happened. The love, the loss, everything. The songs I categorize in this style sound like confessions scribbled and sealed in an envelope, but too brutally honest to ever send. For Example: “Cause there we are again in the middle of the night We’re dancing round the kitchen in the refrigerator light Down the stairs, I was there I remember it all too well And there we are again when nobody had to know You kept me like a secret but I kept you like an oath Sacred prayer, and we’d swear to remember it all too well” The third category is called Glitter Gel Pen and it lives up to its name in every way. Frivolous, carefree, bouncy, syncopated perfectly to the beat. Glitter Gel Pen lyrics don’t care if you don’t take them seriously because they don’t take themselves seriously. Glitter Gel Pen lyrics are the drunk girl at the party who tells you that you look like an Angel in the bathroom. It’s what we need every once in a while in these fraught times in which we live. Example: “my ex man brought his new girlfriend; she’s like ‘oh my god’ but I’m just gonna shake and to the fella over there with the hella good hair, won’t you come on over baby we can shake, shake, shake.” My god she is just SO unhinged and smart and talented. Midnights is def falling in the first two categories and we THANK god for that. Quill Lyrics supremacy.
Cloröx Posted September 21, 2022 Posted September 21, 2022 On the bright side, Midnight definitely her most gorgeous photoshoots

RuflesCando Posted September 21, 2022 Posted September 21, 2022 Do we think the tracklist thing is every day, every other day, completely random or 3 times a week starting next week? These seem to me the only possibilities given there's not a lot of time
Feanor Posted September 21, 2022 Posted September 21, 2022 The TikTok crowd isn't really feeling this "Mastermind" announcement huh? The likes and views are kinda low, especially considering that TikTok itself hyped up this announcement..

The problem is that they hyped it all day so the lashings she's getting are deserved. I would have loved it more if it was a surprise announcement. Exactly i'd love this at any given day if they hadn't hyped to the extreme. She needs to stop playing these games of expectation

FameFatale Posted September 21, 2022 Posted September 21, 2022 All the titles are going to start with M aren't they?
TaylorNation Posted September 21, 2022 Posted September 21, 2022 collectively going in the last 24 hours from this to this absolutely sent me I will say though that maybe it was a tad overhyped, but I really enjoyed the tiktok? it’s definitely the kind of thing old Taylor (pre-1989) would do and really took me back to the old days

Tiktok is made for short videos and so many people on there hate drawn out long story telling videos in parts. They're probably frustrated. A title a day thing would have worked better on instagram.

RuflesCando Posted September 21, 2022 Posted September 21, 2022 (edited) I actually think that closing the album with a song called mastermind is really interesting and at least on paper works for me. I fear she's doing this every other day so it ends literally like two days before the 21st and no lead single. I wonder why did Lil Nas move. I'm sure he could find out if she was releasing or not Edited September 21, 2022 by RuflesCando

dussel_06 Posted September 21, 2022 Posted September 21, 2022 Secret Sessions teas are saying Mastermind is about her being the real mastermind in the manipulation game with Kim and Kanye. It details her perspective on the psychological warfare that happens. The second verse is about her being accused of being a mastermind on the Katy dancers drama. But bridge and last chorus changes into her being a mastermind of her life as a woman inspiring young women. It’s a bop to end the album. They said it’s Bad Blood meets I Did Something Bad meets This is why we can’t have nice things. I hate the reputation stans win this round.
