Shake It Off and Blank Space are her next two best, and everything since LWYMMD has been not good. Yes LWYMMD is iconic AF, but the other rep videos are meh. Delicate is at least cute. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chiliam Posted June 29, 2023 Share Posted June 29, 2023 you guys are doing way too much on her self direct video. cardigan is a serve, i cried when they zoomed out the whole ocean scene is beautiful The man, Willow, ATW10, Anti hero, Lavender Haze, Bejeweled while not amazing is still fitted the song well. And honestly have you guys watch any other pop stars music videos, these underwhelming videos from Taylor are still better than most other pop videos. In recent years, only maybe 2-3 videos from Doja are better. She improved a lot with Karma, the video is so underrated, it was great, i might say on Kahn`s pop video level 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Finkypop Posted June 29, 2023 Share Posted June 29, 2023 (edited) I kinda don’t agree regarding her MVs? The folkmore videos were gorgeous. Karma was an amazing video and I definitely feel it’s one of her best. Bejeweled was also really good. Anti-Hero was cute. Don’t do too much on Midnights videos idk I loved them lol. The only miss I feel was Lavender Haze (it just felt so slow while the song is such an opening banger for the album… the lavender bath scene was the highlight) Her directing has improved so much from The Man () and after Karma I honestly am excited to see what she does next Edited June 29, 2023 by Finkypop 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe in August as summer is winding down?

cruelhprince Posted June 29, 2023 Share Posted June 29, 2023 I feel like Karma was really well directed and a big improvement from her past work. I’m not sure what a Cruel Summer MV would look like though, Style's music video comes to my mind Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holiest Dreams Posted June 29, 2023 Share Posted June 29, 2023 I want a music video just for the sake of it, and tbh it’ll probably do better than her other recent videos But yes a live performance upload would do way better and should come in July. A proper video can be used later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wholeheartedly agree. It's not even a question of doing better, it's just that it would be amazing to have this performance greatly recorded.

The tour is such a phenomenon, a live performance video would be very exciting to see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel like she’s really invested in fan service and it sort’ve gives back to the fans? It’s not like she’s going to go without coin. Still, unsure on my stance 🤔 I like all of her videos anyway, the man didn’t do much for me though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
