Although I actually like the song a lot, but lead single material… not sure about that part

I feel like she's making it the lead because she wanted ****! and didn't get to have it during 1989 and to me Fortnight has some ****! energy to it, and she is just taking that chance now because its clear she likes that song and sound.

Like 6 weeks, but they had hooked up before back in 2014/2015. He's been a simp for her forever. 
 

I'm really getting only one 'true' Matty song, though (I Can Fix Him)? Sounds like he's also in But Daddy I Love Him, but it's not exactly flattering, and she's spending a good bit of that song trolling, honestly. 

I assumed Smallest was about Matty?  Who is it about?

I was scared when I first listened to it and it gave Midnights vibes, thank god it's an outlier :ahh:

Knowing Taylor, one of the bonus tracks will be the most obvious lead single :deadbanana2:

The singles should be

 

Down Bad

WOLOLO

I Can Fix Him

 

And maybe she can remix Florida with the actual Florence and not whoever that is in the album version

I adore this album It's on par with 1989 and Folklore right there

Romance, piano rock and organ oh we are so back It's giving Vanessa Carlton :heart2:

Not listening till Friday. Is there anything on the album that can either do well on radio or has potential to become viral on tiktok?

Ive been studying for the bar and wow I missed a leak :clownny:

also I can't believe after all the whining about wanting lyrics Taylor back, now there's suddenly people here wanting "bombastic pop" from her :rip: this is perfect to release at your peak, she doesn't need a mainstream album right now, she's just huge on her own

Can't wait for The Tortured Taylor's Version in 10 years for us to find out she had an I Can See You-level masterpiece in the vaults

In my mind, the lyrics are "Charli XCX should be a bigger artist.”

I mean it sounds like a traumatic two weeks :rip:

 

 

And in fairness, she liked Matty way back in the 1989 days too. We don't know the full story here.

I'm confused, if it isn't pop, what is it?

The oh-oh-oh-oh-oh melody in MBOBHFT... it's a hit :jonny5:

I am most anticipating The Albatross. Since I claimed that as my favorite track on name and cover alone.

If it's not, I'm going to keep listening to it until it is.

"Katy B should be a bigger artist"

 

So true, Taylor!

I like it a lot so far :heart2:

 

I agree it's not that interesting lyrically, but it's not "samey" at all - you just need to appreciate the different production elements. the haters just don't actually pay attention enough while they're writing their "witty" essays about it

 

had a thought though...maybe she's trolling us? maybe this was a planned l**k, and the ✌️ (second) album is coming tomorrow?

This sound suits her voice very well the lower range the harmonics and backing vocals really evolved.

 

I love her tapping into the indie-pop/sophistic pop sound and I thought she made good use of the producer capitalising on their strengths.

 

I enjoy her subtle acoustics and voice here. What's really impressive is how she seamlessly blends her pop and songwriter persona something she hasn't done cohesively till yet.
