Gladiator Posted April 27 Posted April 27 54 minutes ago, PoisonedIvy said: After a week of the album being out I'm going to say evermore is still my #1 from her because it's basically a perfect album, I'm so emotionally attached, it's comforting, and it truly is an escape from reality. TTPD:TA is sonically volatile, thematically reckless, and lyrically experimental. I love it though. It's Red on crack cocaine in a three way with a wine-drunk evermore and a joint-high Midnights. But for now I'm going to let it settle in as my #2 favorite album from her, because I'll have to see if it ages as phenomenally as evermore has. That album is one for the ages. I'm going to be 87 still riding hard for that one. Good luck TTPD, I'm rooting for you. I fear for me, evermore has fallen. We hereby conduct this post-mortem. 1 5

I don't get these radio updates and all I see is negative so how is this good ? All songs "lose" audience on the 8th day, it's a little hard to explain but it's called the rolling effect. A new song can't be "added" to a higher quantity of stations than it was on release day, and the radio chart shows growth on current day vs 1 week ago. So with a "small" drop like the one we have, that means it's healthily maintaining or even increasing its audience reach, enough to offset the negative impact of the rolling effect Sorry if t's still confusing, someone else might be able to summarize it better than I did Edited April 27 by PoisonedIvy 1 1

She should have released them a week apart so they were listened to, reviewed and appreciated separately. 1 1

Dear Reader Posted April 27 Posted April 27 Can't get over the fact that she gave us a timetable for two days 8

Cruel Summer Posted April 27 Posted April 27 Yeah, I'm on the "this is the one that finally beats evermore" side still. There's way too much material here for it to fade as quickly as a smaller album might - there's still Anthology tracks I don't even know by heart, and I've never been able to say that about a Taylor album a week later, like there's so much. I did the song sorter thing and while I'm not sure about how accurate it is or will be later, there are some interesting surprises like The Bolter being higher than I thought and The Anthology kind of stomping even harder than I expected 1 The Prophecy 2 I Hate It Here 3 Guilty as Sin? 4 Fortnight 5 imgonnagetyouback 6 I Look in People's Windows 7 The Albatross 8 Down Bad 9 The Bolter 10 Cassandra 11 The Black Dog 12 I Can Do It With a Broken Heart 13 I Can Fix Him (No Really I Can) 14 The Tortured Poets Department 15 loml 16 Florida!!! 17 The Manuscript 18 Peter 19 How Did It End? 19 thanK you aIMee 21 Chloe or Sam or Sophia or Marcus 22 Clara Bow 23 Fresh Out the Slammer 24 Robin 25 But Daddy I Love Him 26 The Smallest Man Who Ever Lived 27 So High School 28 So Long, London 29 The Alchemy 30 My Boy Only Breaks His Favorite Toys 31 Who's Afraid of Little Old Me? 1 1

I'm shook you could do this. I've been driving around recently trying to rank them. It's really The Anthology that's the hardest to place. My ranking for the standard is solidified. It hasn't changed with more listens the past couple days.
