Why does everyone think Matty is always the starry eyed reference? Doesn't she say Joe had starry eyes in Call it what you want? (listned to it again after ttpd binge and it's still an amazing song idc :jonny2:)

 

She really mixed these 2 people so well and nailed it with the whole red Herring thing in so many different ways, a genius, a poet, etc :clap3:

loml in particular was such a masterful combination of the two. The song, viewed through different (albeit incorrect) lenses, can be applied to either of them in it's entirety or to the muddled emotional combination of the two in her mind now that she's reached the other side of the mess.

Will TTPD back to #1 this week? It seems like no one is releasing

It's predicted to stay at #4. Stray Kids released a new album.

she was so fast to perform as surprises at the tour all these TTPD songs fans didn't have time to learn ( especially when she's performig in not english language countries) and now it's like 7-8 shows she doesn't perform a song :lakitu:

I was ready to declare Florida!!! Clean Version as the better version because Firestorm sounds so much better than shitstorm but I hate lazy bleeping out of F-bombs.

Good lord her voice could not sustain the demands of this song in 2008 :deadbanana4: Sounding like a damn yo yo string flailing up and down :gaycat6: I haven't heard the OG fearless since FTV and this genuinely took me by surprise

Midnights is already getting tons of those "it's time to admit that Midnights was great and incredible era" tweets. Same thing will happen with TTPD, mark my words. 

She really is always ahead of her time. "Nostalgia is a mind's trick"… I remember everyone complaining about the Midnights era at the time and now everyone's raving about it. 

The hate on the Midnights era never made any sense for me, it was literally her comeback era :rip:

 

And the album has always been great too so it's good to see it getting more recognition :coffee2:

I find it interesting how she wrote songs outside of her range on Fearless, Speak Now, and 1989. 

Speaking of vocal tones, ttpd has her most gorgeous tone since Red.

The OG cardigan has been restocked if you're one of those weirdos into ugly, expensive, terrible-quality merch.

I was hoping it'd be a restock of the vinyls too so I was perched for a hot second. 

 

I do however love that we've gotten the Lover snowglobe and this restocked in the past year to bring down the resale costs. Good on Taylor for doing that even if I would never buy any of it.

Okay so this album is kind of excellent mood music for a breakup, isn't it? Especially one where you're not actually all that devastated because it's been withering away for a good part of those six years and there's someone else you've had your eye on who probably also won't work out very well but you don't care because you're less concerned with what's good for you and more concerned with controlling your own life narrative and being mad that the thing you invested all that time in was ultimately equally as much not the answer as the bad idea pulling you away is likely not the answer. Who would have thought? :gaycat:

For some reason i always thought her voice on Fearless sounded technically WORSE than on her first album :rip:

Ugh after i adjusted the tracklist to flow like one of my albums, it slaps. :dies:
I really like the original version, but it was definitely scrambled. I could see myself in the songs but i wanted to make it clearer.

Something to keep in mind, is that the timeliness of Midnights and TTPD overlap. There are 7 songs on TTPD that overlap with Midnights, when i add TTPD to my narrative with Taylor's music that overlaps with mine. But by the time we get to Fortnight we are in TTPD. So that is why she made it Track 1, but in my version it's Track 8. So i'm pretty sure there'll be some overlap with the next album and i'll have to unscramble the tracklist again. 
Oh what fun i am having. :gaycat:

is it weird I wouldn't be mad if she continued to ignore it? Helps it maintain its "hidden gem" status in her discography :shutup:
