Ew, Ezra’s creepy ass can stay far away from Taylor, we don’t need a redux Matty situation 

 

although I do agree their first three albums are god-tier

then where is the more Speak Now TV chapter? 

I don’t think there is any more Speak Now. There also wasn’t a “More Fearless” until she retconned ITWAM.

It’s pretty obvious that she’ll be doing some of the “More” chapters again in the future, no? I imagine Sweeter Than Fiction and the BB Remix will be on a “More 1989” chapter after the album’s release. It’s clear she wants to own (or re-record) all of her work; she didn’t have to re-record S&S and Eyes Open but she did, so I think it’s safe to say we’ll get all the extras somewhere down the line. Same goes for IDWLF and TIWYCF—if they don’t make it as Rep vault tracks, they’ll get a “More Reputation” release, too. 

is it worth the money to pay kendrick lamar for a random one-off that's not on an actual album?

Maybe not, but like I said, it seems like she’s wanting to (re)do everything. She did it for The Civil Wars (or Joy and John) on S&S.

The "More" tracks are annoying because they get lost in the shuffle of her unwieldy streaming discography not to mention the wasted album units if they do numbers like AOTGYLB.

it's 1989, collaborations will be big, not Troye Sivan.

 

Phoebe was ok for red cause it's her chanteuse album now. She's giving to the "new" albums a specific identity. While red in 2012 was basically sold as mainstream pop album like 1989 now she made ATW 10 minutes, song with phoebe etc.. she sold it as her singer songwriter album this time.

Speak now back in 2010 was sold like a country kind of fearless 2 (mine aka the copy of love story, back to december, sparks fly). Now she sold it like an early 10s rock pop album (see the collaborators) and Enchanted as main pop old song.

 

1989 is her mainstream big pop album. Why she should choose Troye Sivan or some indie band for 1989? It's not its narrative. Names are gonna be Selena Gomez, Katy Perry, Madonna, Dua Lipa etc.. i'm not saying these exact names, but this genre of big maisntream pop stars.

the civil wars are 1% as famous as kendrick; she can pay them with with change

[Kyle-x]

Maybe we'll get that Drake feature no one wants anymore and fulfill the prophecy of the Apple Music commercial where she listens to the Drake & Future song.

I would love a Katy collab, it would be a full circle moment

What‘s the tea on Ezra?

[vale9001]

Meanwhile reputation in the live versions is very rock. Seems like in the live version we can hear what the album could have been if the label didn't want a 1989 2.0. 

 

So she should sell It this time like a sort of rock-r'n'b album with collaborations from rappers or more electronic acts- rock bands.

My theory (and @Klein's prophecy) is that the LA show post will come with the boxscores tomorrow. And, for what it's worth, the 'new' scheduled post is just the archived LH explainer video

HOT TAKE:
Sweeter Than Fiction is not good. It did what it needed to do to prep for 1989, but it can remain on a "More EP/Chapter/Etc".\

The Vault collabs are obviously HAIM and Selena, you girlies are just ignoring this fact atp

I mean, the post with the polaroids of her, Selena and HAIM was not innocent imo

We'll see i guess. I like their friendship but i REALLY don't like Selena as an artist/singer, she's extremely below Taylor and doesn't deserve to share a song with her imo. I'd rather see Taylor collaborate with more talented artists.

I like Selena so I’d be happy with a collab between the two. But these guesses are all fun and games, my bet are those two

Yeah, it's not the end of the world if they do collaborate i guess. I still hope it's not gonna happen but if the song is good, so be it

I disagree. Rep was all her. No label interference. First time she chose singles without help. No one even at the label heard it when she turned it in. The reason songs sound rockier live is because that’s what translates best in a stadium. She marketed rep as her bad girl era at first and pushed the more hip hop influenced songs as singles and nothing really connected with the GP, until delicate was released later on. I think this time around she will really push that it’s an album about love and focus more on the tropical dance / edm/ house / dance sound of the album for the vault tracks… but the album might have a lot of vault tracks so we could still get another revenge anthem/ hip hop infused song/ bad girl tay song.I def think she will serve looks in the photo shoot tho. Probably look hotter than the first album shoot. This time around, sexy tay could actually connect with the GP.

[19SLAYty9]

I still think she’s going to pull a 3 am edition with 1989 tv and give us more vault tracks. The only vault collab im seriously believing so far is Dua. Seems the most obvious. I could also see either Harry, Selena, Haim, Madonna, or Katy appearing as well. Especially if we do get more vault tracks.

[19SLAYty9]

I could also see her releasing all the vault songs as solo songs so at least one of the TVs has no collabs and then releasing remixes of each song with different artists. With the way she is performing, maybe she should release singles ahead of release. Songs like style tv, New Romantics tv, DBM tv would have serious shots at #1

i have the same feeling. there’s no way she’s only releasing 5 songs for her most successful album 

[Enrique523]

Honestly i would KILL for a Madonna/Taylor collaboration, it'd be such a collapse 

[Winged]

Will there be more deluxe ? Or signed copies?
