Why is nobody commenting yet on the shameless recycling of You're Boring Me verses in loml serving Mastermind and Suburban Legends

 

:suburban:

Literally 60% of the album sounds like Suburban Legends

I refuse to take anyone who thinks this sounds like Midnights seriously. I just absolutely REFUSE.

This. Especially after track 5… like???

Does the "I love you it's ruining my life" remind anyone of the Long Live bridge? :gaycat2:

I liked Florida, Guilty as Sin and Who's Afraid (..). The rest is pretty much the usual Jack Antonoff boring mess. It's like Midnights but without the hits


I hope she switches her sound on the next album. Idk, rock, country again, dance, anything else would be welcome for a change. This Lana cosplay is tiring already.

this is the album i've always wanted from taylor y'all idk maybe because it's so florence/lana coded 

this is for the alt/indie girls, it's her first album that's an INSTANT for me

i decided to skim through after seeing the disappointing reactions and yeah :rip: most of the songs are just been there done that

it's mostly either 1989 vaults or midnights sounding songs, i'm afraid with her recent releases her music has all been blending together

 

she NEEDS to work with different producers, i was already disappointed seeing aaron and jack all over the writing credits once again

I'm convinced there is a second album coming, digital only because the reason she's referring to 2 a lot is not coming to me at all. 

I hope it's a trap magnum opus like that leaked try 2 (from the girl who posted the tracklist) sounds like

I hope I Can Do It With a Broken Heart grows on me, but I am usually pretty good at identifying if a song will or not and I don't think it will...

Its a shame because I like the first minute of it.

Other than that, the album is perfect for me.

I so agree. I think when it actually is released and the critics and public acclaim it we'll see a lot of changing attitudes.

Finished my first listen but I really need the lyrics to get the whole picture

I'm looking for the "August," "Cruel Summer," or "Getaway Car" of the album, but still nothing.

Listening now - Fortnite might be her worst album opener. I would've thought this was an AI cover if I didn't know better :rip:

there's no second album coming, please :rip: the ✌🏻 is just her teasing fortnight

I'm not listening till it releases, and I'm sure I will like it more than these first reactions are accounting for. However if she does end up getting lashed by the critics / GP this album I'm actually excited for her to lose for once, if it means we get Reputa 2.0 :duca:

This kind of feels like her Radical Optimism era

 

Stans deluding themselves into thinking it will catch on and that the haters will love this when the acclaim rolls in

 

...and it never happens

saying this as if you won't be sharing your thoughts on first listen... like be so for real right now.

 

idk i hate this superiority complex of some fans that taylor swift is objectively good, and thus anyone who critiques her has no music taste or cannot review music. like idk 

I've already shared my thoughts where I wanted to share them. There's a difference between analyzing the music Taylor has presented to us and just claiming this is "Midnights all over again,” completely ignoring the extremely discernible differences between the two. It's a knee jerk reaction to the music that lacks credibility, nuance, or a proper analysis. No superiority involved, you don't have to like the album, but it shouldn't be because within 3 tracks you've pegged it to be the same as another album that you are already biased against.

It really is Lana coded, which is probably why I love it too. :WAP:
