I don't like the folklore/Midnights comparisons since the album mostly has country storytelling and a lot of country pop choruses. It's actually where the heart of the record pulses.

I'm so confused by everyone's description, but I don't want to listen yet. Is it country pop a la Speak Now/Red? Or much more laid back?

it's mostly midtempo, very lyrics forward and attempts of humor

its not country. its definitely laid back for the most part, production reminds most of 1989 TV vault songs and 3am Edition of Midnights. But there's more live instrumentation for sure.

If there is a new TTPD section at the Eras Tour they will need to get that padded room onstage expeditiously

Also, can this thread not be merged with the other one with over 1000 pages? I don't know why, but now having two seperate threads gives me kind of anxiety :skull:

 

Can't wait to listen to the album tomorrow tho :jonny5:

I do hear country influenced melodies

Taylor references two songs on the album, has anyone found out who they're by? 
 

She mentions "Downtown Lights" and how she hasn't heard it in awhile until he sends it to her in "Guilty as Sin," 

 

And then on "The Black Dog" she mentions a song that was intrinsically tied to her and Joe that this young girl in the bar wouldn't know when they play it, can't recall the name just yet

CRYING!!! WHAT THE HELL :ahh:

I love that she went into the studio after listening to Lana's discography and said "I'm gonna say every word she hasn't"

 

Here I was worried about a more wordy Taylor, but it works.

I got so bored after the first 4 songs and had to take a break :rip:

 

Spoiler

Tracks 6-14 are hit after hit though :jonny5:

I think that member was definitely asking for the sonic palette. country influenced songwriting has rarely ever left her imo, but it is definitely way stronger on here than say Midnights lmao

"now I'm down bad, crying at the gym"

she's so real for this

Jack Antonoff produced 11 tracks while Aaron did produce 5 tracks. Louis Bell was a vocal producer in fortnight.

I'm going to move some things around once it's on streaming. I think ICDI will work better as the track right before Clara Bow imo
