Anyone else not like her more upbeat / cheery acoustic take of The Prophecy? I feel like it eliminated the melancholia that is present in the actual song tbh :'(

"…my good name/its mine alone to disgrace" is such a stunning line, it feels like the culmination of this artistic persona she started exploring in Reputation, this jaded character that has rejected the expectations of being America's perfect princess that were put on her in the first half of her career. When people say that Taylor has no edge, I want to point them to this character she's created, which is really fascinating because it sits right alongside her image as a perfectly manicured American icon, and I think is kind of an innovation in pop stardom. She's showing us both the end product of what it means to be the biggest star in America, and also the inner turmoil and contradictions inherent in putting a human being, who makes mistakes like all of us, in that position. 

Putting that sociology degree to work :clap3: 

Love this post because it's so true! it's an understated yet powerful line tbh :clap3:

She certainly had a gift for hooks, descriptive lyrics, and bridges since a young age. This song is cute but it doesn't need to be a vault track.

How is this my first time hearing about The Diary of Me (album)? :skull

It was confirmed by the songwriter (a grown man) that Taylor only sang the demo and did not write the song.

 

He stopped replying to the swifties, must have he realized he was stopping his own bags cause Taylor is re-recording. :deadbanana2:

I think I vaguely do remember this… the lyrics fit her at the time though. Haha

The Alchemy is the trash pop she tried and failed to create on Regurgitation. 

Shirts off, and your friends lift you up over their heads
Beer sticking to the floor
Cheers chanted, cause they said
There was no chance, trying to be
The greatest in the league
Where's the trophy?
He just comes running over to me
Touch down
Call the amateurs and
Cut 'em from the team
Ditch the clowns, get the crown
Baby I'm the one to beat
Cause the sign on your heart
Said it's still reserved for me
Honestly, who are we to fight the alchemy?
These blokes warm the benches
We been on a winning streak
He jokes that it's heroin but this time with an "E"
Cause the sign on your heart said it's still reserved for me
Honestly, who are we to fight the alchemy?
 
Now this is trash pop excellence. Poor Ready for ****?, End Fame, King of my shart...

I hate it here so I will go to
secret gardens in my mind
People need a key to get to
The only one is mine
I read about it in a book when I was a precocious child
No mid-sized city hopes and small town fears
I'm there most of the year
Cause I hate it here
I hate it here 

:weeps:

I love her alliteration use :jonnycat:

Another summer taking cover, rolling thunder
He don't understand me
Splintered back in winter, silent dinners, bitter
He was with her in dreams 

 

Camera flashes, welcome bashes
Get the matches, toss the ashes off the ledge
As I said in my letters, now that I know better
I will never lose my baby again

 

Fresh out of the Slammer is Midnight Rain's sister where she just flexes her alliteration game nonstop

The ingenuity of so high school :jonnycat: 

Using the soft rock genre that was popular during her high school years, referencing American Pie; a scandalous movie teens only watched secretly and felt proud of doing so, the Grand Theft Auto reference (GTA 3 is still that girl), the Kiss Marry Kill and spin the bottle mentions; two high school staple games, them having sex in the back seat of his car like two high school kids, and it's all wrapped in the all American imagery of the High School football jock falling for the nerdy drama club kid :clap3:.

I think we need to speak how the last tracks 2 of her albums have been complete TRASH with both being on contention of being the worst songs in her discography. Maroon doing 200k daily streams but we were told that it's a classic. Both songs were REJECTED by both the fans and the GP. She had Blank ******* space, champagne problems, Sparks fly, Cruel Summer. We need her back ASAP
