Taylor Swift - 'THE TORTURED POETS DEPARTMENT'


Recommended Posts

Posted

I think "I was supposed to be sent away but they forgot to come and get me" is her best opening lyric for an album. That lyric and melody somehow are the most infections to me and then there I am listening to Fortnight and 2 hours go by and I listened to the album.

as much as I love GAS I think Down Bad would smash hard on radio, the chorus is so catchy

even tho we probably won't get a 3rd single

I seen on twitter that apparently there is a plan to push a third single in fall

 

If it's going to get the treatment the other two "singles" have gotten, however, keep it sis!

 

also agree with down bad, radio would eat that up

she needs to put out radio edits of her songs like 3 mins versions ... cuz as much as the song is great the average person does not listen to long ass songs anymore. I would love if she pursued the direction of 80's synth in the vein of somebody else by THE  1975 . These doesn't require huge vocals and would fit nicely with her voice.

The only song I see smashing in radio is MBOBHFT

Coming here to say the exact same thing. It is arguably one of her best melodic lines too. But of course simply because there isn't a bombastic beat there is no melody at all on TTPD.

Down Bad is a generational SMASH.

 

It needs a sexy sad galactic music video not a CGI'd Mid ights esque vibe.

Does anyone else notice this part in the production of BDILH at 4:42 when she says "wild joy" in the backing vocals but it sounds kinda shaky? It's one of my favorite little production choices on the album :jonny5:

I can't see that smashing at all. So High School is the real hit waiting to happen with a 2000's inspired music video.

Out next week :toofunny3:

How did we go from 54 & 53 woc smashes to this… Even Is It Over Now spent more weeks :suburban:

 

Based on this & the fact that ICDWABH is also kinda tumbling down, I suspect Rep TV is coming way sooner than expected

based on US Spotify streams whilst in the top 200, per kworb, the biggest female songs have been

Kill Bill - 589 million

cruel summer - 512 million 

 

last week cruel summer was only ahead by half a million.

Idk but I just thought as well that April was a weird time to release this album. It could've ate a lot more if it was released around Autumn/Winter.

"Now I'm down bad crying at the gym" is the biggest hook on the album. That needs to be a single 100%.

It is hard being on the right side of history. But we will be rewarded, in this life or the next.
