I am obsessed with I Can See You

It's such a sultry bop

That’s just because they didn’t press enough vinyl for Red. It was sold out for like 6 months.

Anyway, Speak Now sold around 140k vinyls on her website. There is no way it sells 500-600k at the end of the week. Probably 300k.

12 hours data? I've never seen them makes such early prediction 

could it be a coordinated attack? sabotage? 

[houndsoflove]

will always be queueing If This Was a Masterpiece while listening to this album because frankly I'm still pissed she axed one of her best songs for this project

[Cruel Summer]

Timeless gets a little better every time I play it, literally a TS classic

[Vespertine]

"I was trying to create a follow up the most awarded country album in history" always making sure She gets a flex in while saying how vulnerable She felt

I hope I get this right. You know there’s an artist, and if you play Sparks Fly TV on very low volume, and then you turn it up, and you’re like EWE-WHEW!

 

 

I’m scared of the headphones experience.
 

Lmaooo

I thought I read it was 240k from her site somewhere.

Well, Target here is stocked with vinyl after all but they’re hidden behind the counter and they literally have sales people monitoring the music section if they’re here for Taylor Swift

Are we sure that Electric Touch isn't a HSM outtake? It's giving Troy and Gabriela

I'm sorry but this has me yelling

 

Let me go see if the local Targets here are Swiftie doomsday prepping too

A Twitter account reported that but I'm pretty sure it was wrong. 80k vinyls disappeared suddenly from the stock (probably because they sent them to retailers or international markets) and they counted them as if they were sold.

Timeless is the only vault track where im truly surprised how it wasnt included in the album back then, it definitely fits the fairytale/enchanted vibe of the album overall and lyrically its great and nothing too out there.
Love Electric Touch but i get why it wasnt on the album, same with I Can See You lyrically. I wonder how I Can See You sounded back then though, definitely nothing like this

This is another option. Still insane but less insane than "vinyls alone".

[littlebodybigheart]

foolish one has amazing lyrics. the jury’s still out for me on the melody

on my second listen right now and sparks fly isn't as botched as I thought so. enchanted chorus on the other hand unfortunately is a lil....

I think the last chorus on Enchanted sounds pretty good, but not feeling the first half of the song. Overall I think Mine, Sparks Fly, and Haunted are the ones I'm most disappointed in 

 

The general trend with the TVs was that her more traditional country stuff sounded great re-recorded, but her pop music kinda suffered (This Love is good, but I hate Wildest Dreams and the pop songs on Red). So I expected this album to sound amazing, I think some songs just have a certain energy that's complimented by her vivacious younger voice.

Almost every review criticize her for the lyric change

The title track is sooo good. How does it feel singing ON KEY blondie? 

Yeah, the difference in terms of vocal quality is quite noticeable

Well, the melodies are equally good, so there is that. 

[BIAATCH]

I enjoyed more this re-recording than the Red TV tbh

 

 I couldn't stand most of the Red tracks but i didnt mind the few changes in this one.

As she deserves

[hypnodemiluv]

Honestly scam for fans money. Songs from the vault sounds like not mastered demos. TV versions almost identical. No significant change. Disappointed.

I still cannot process and compute all of this I’m listening to it at work and I am literally shaking. It’s marvellous just like the original and  in fact some of them are much much better. The only bad one is unfortunately Enchanted and I knew that would be the case. The vocal delivery on the original is just so specific AND the production and pacing of the first is super lush and timed to the nano second. This version is all over the place. A pity but I can forgive it because the rest is just marvellous.
