Magickarp Posted April 17 Posted April 17 Lets not drag the lyrics now, it's the thing that lifts Hack's tired synths up, while it tries so hard to drag them down They're AP Lit yes, but they're not try hard & unswiftian, like The Lakes. 1

YR. Posted April 17 Posted April 17 Girl where the **** were the melodies for the first half of the record
discotitzz Posted April 17 Posted April 17 Also to anyone who is worrying about the Charlie Puth line: everyone here melting down about it is taking it out of context of them saying it after getting high together It's a joke line. Whether it lands well or not is another thing, but it is not comparable to spelling is fun. 9

I gotta work early tomorrow but just wanted to give it a quick listen and I'm at So Long, London and I really like it sonically! Those small build-ups are very nice! Gonna continue listening tomorrow before work and report back, babe 1

Tusk Posted April 17 Posted April 17 A Stevie Nicks reference in Clara Bow? That true? Must be a flop song. No one is talking about it. 1

Dear Reader Posted April 17 Posted April 17 Down Bad is WAY better than I was anticipating it to be. I really like the melody and the bridge.

VenusFlyTrap Posted April 17 Posted April 17 7 minutes ago, PoisonedIvy said: 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. 3 minutes ago, 1989 said: Sure, but there is no denying that there is a large subset of people who immediately pan every new release and complain about Jack Antonoff, only to switch when the first week numbers come out. It's been the same song and dance since Lover (maybe minus Folklore, since that's when she first brought Aaron into the mix). And not surprisingly enough, none of these people were part of the original thread. both of these are very valid points and im not denying that bias is obviously present no matter who's talking about the album, I just hate this idea of only some people being able to review taylor's music and anyone who gives the seemingly "wrong" opinion must not know what they're doing, when those aren't mutually exclusive concepts 3 1
