All Taylor album titles are 1 word. Good strategy?


Recommended Posts

Posted (edited)

Aside from Debut (which is nicknamed with 1 word anyway) and Speak Now (which was intended to be called Enchanted) all her albums have 1 word titles. 1989 is a number yes, but kinda looks like 1 word anyway. Does it make them easier to remember/recall for the fans and GP alike? Is it a smart strategy? Do you expect TS11 to be a 1 word title too? If so, any guesses of what it might be? Sagittarius?? 

 

Mixtape

Fearless

Enchanted

Red

1989

Reputation

Lover

Folklore

Evermore

Midnights

I think its a good strategy to have short names cause it’s easier for people to name them and therefore “remember” them otherwise people get lazy

 

For example with Billie’s debut no one will call it by its full name

Unlike most of her song titles, her album titles are exceptionally short which is something that I find intriguing. TS11 will most likely have a one word title as well. 

Though I want her to come up with a longer album title for once, something similar to How Big, How Blue, How Beautiful by Florence.

It’s an excellent strategy that also has worked great for the similarly talented legend Björk, whose debut album is actually called Debut which is what we came Mixtape when we’re feeling nice - Taylor was just taking notes from a fellow queen :nicole2:

The album is not referred to as "ninety eighty-one", it's actually "1989" so it still counts as a one part album title

She indeed has very good album titles. I love one-word titles, and Taylor has a knack of choosing words as titles. They are not too generic and they project a certain image about the album.

How are album titles like Red, Lover, Midnights NOT generic? Y'all have no awareness whatsoever when it comes to this little girl.

just think how big she could have been with 3 word titles

It makes the titles easier to remember and reference, also go straight to the point to the respective album's theme/concept.

Not with a Doja Cat avi. Scarlett is just a 2 syllable word for red, Hot Pink is another color, Amala’s just self-titled. If Taylor’s generic, your fav’s in the same boat!

 

OT: Her titles are easy to remember which is absolutely a smart strategy. If someone asks for it for Christmas, you’re not gonna forget which 1 they wanted

Taylor is the definition of generic. You can't be serious, sister.

I hadn't noticed that until now but yeah, it makes it easier to remember an album if its title is short.
