Basically chronicles a cycle of loss. The album picks up with the narrator reminiscing (track 5 is also meant to represent the previous love story)… and we follow them as they move on and find someone new. Things eventually crash and burn as expected. Dear Reader acts as a fitting epilogue.

I don't really care for Clean (outside of that piano performance in the rain at the Rep tour after she talked about her sexual assault case). 

 

Spoiler

Now let me hide cause I'm going to be hated on soooooooooo much for this.

Vocoder-heavy tracks like Dear Reader prove just how excellent she’d be on a hyperpop album with the high octane energy of 1989’s bangers. I’ve been a supporter of this idea for a long time now :giraffe: Something like Charli XCX’s Pop 2 or songs like Carly Rae Jepsen — After Last Night would be such a natural and exciting evolution if she were to pursue modern pop again.

People criminalizing og versions too much. They're still her work and she still getting money from streams. 
I never stream og anyway, 'cause I'm too lazy to go for another album just so I could play normal version of Style, Red, Holy Ground, etc. But the overall "you're not a swiftie if you listen to STOLEN VERSIONS THAT WERE STOLEN FROM HER BY BIG BAD GREEDY MEN and you don't respect her art" narrative is bullshit. :pig:

Your mind. I don’t really need until the end of the decade but I’d like to see her do it one day

I'd rather her do it sooner than later so that she's either on trend or somewhat ahead of the curve than us all be like "well that was cool 5 years ago." That's why Britney's Blackout has stood the test of time... because it was so ahead of the curve that it became the blueprint for the pop girls.

I've had that supposedly AI version of fortnight in my head all week. :deadbanana:

I have several:

 

• I never really got the love behind the song “Fifteen”. Like it’s mediocre at best, though the Taylor’s Version is better and makes it a good song.

• “Enchanted” is very overrated. Don't get me wrong, it’s still a pretty good song but “Sparks Fly”, “Back to December”, “Better Than Revenge”, “Haunted”, “Last Kiss”, and “Long Live” are all better and they’re on the same album.

• “The Last Time” is the superior ballad on Red and “Sad Beautiful Tragic” is just average.

• “Bad Blood” and “You Need to Calm Down” are both pretty decent pop songs and the live version of “Bad Blood” goes off!

• “Look What You Made Me Do” is a career highlight lead single.

• The bridge of “Dress” is in Taylor’s top five.

• The second half of the second verse of “Daylight” is a bit unnecessary and feels out of place.

• “Message In A Bottle” is one of her worst pop songs and it’s clear why it was left off of the original Red, though the vocals do slap at the end of the bridge onwards.

• Aside from the bridge/outro, “Suburban Legends” is a very half-baked song.

THIS. I will never understand why Enchanted is so many people’s fav on Speak Now. I’m starting to believe it’s all the people who haven’t actually listened to her country albums in full. I’d put it bottom 5 on SN.

My theory that I'm hanging onto (I know it's not true but I have to believe) is that they're real and Taylor is behind the leaks because she knows they'd spread like wildfire and it's free promo. She can then act upset about the leaks and somehow lead that into Rep (TV)

Me!: the song was a very wrong choice at that moment of her career, after Reputation and after even critics were going harder on her, because She was near to 30 etc..

 

Now It was just a moment and seeing what She made after that and we can see an entire career and djscography as whole the song is not that tragic like people act. I mean yeah It's a mediocre Song but nothing deserved this "cult discussion" about It like It's nicky Minaj stupid hoe or Kanye west i love It or songs like that.  Actually jf nothing It's a very harmless mediocre Song.
