Maroon legacy Posted February 7 Posted February 7 There are 2 reasons to release a single before the album comes out. 1) hype up everyone to pay attention to the artist and their upcoming album 2) make a global hit The amount of hype Taylor will get in the debut week without a single is even bigger if she would release one. With her level she can make anything a hit if she wants to. And if she fails, then releasing that song as a single before the album wouldn't really help anyway. So yeah, there's like no point for her 6
Maroon legacy Posted February 7 Posted February 7 The only reason for her to drop a prerelease single is if she wants to make several singles from this album AND release reputation TV in the early autumn. 'cause there should be a break between them 1

Cleanromantic Posted February 7 Posted February 7 The aesthetic is giving me one and done single like Cardigan/ willow, but I think this time it's going to smash simultaneously with Cruel Summer. This also raises the potential for a TTPD LPSS since I think it's going to be a more "organic" sounding album

Even if you can find it in your heart to "forgive" Taylor for the despicable things she's doing now, I'm sure the next time she does something "despicable" and you want attention, you'll threaten to leave again. Maybe you'll actually follow through with it! 9
Timeless Posted February 7 Posted February 7 I have a feeling either Fortnight ft. Post Malone or Down Bad will be the focus track for the album, and the rest will be viral tiktok sounds (that are pitched because of the UMG issues)

Ms. Togekiss Posted February 7 Posted February 7 1 hour ago, Cleanromantic said: I will never not be excited for new music. Like bfr. I wish the "she's a corporation" pick mes will go Stan their other make-up releasing faves and leave us alone tbh. Do we really need to read about how superior you are because you don't "blindly Stan her" every day? It's not that serious and you're talking about an artist, not a politician/ political movement. You're not special . Spill. Go to any OTH thread and you’ll find them acting holier than thou. Like you can’t be a pick me fan criticizing her every move while also stanning the failed singer turned make up seller that collaborates with big pharma OT: I need her to serve a dreams on this album. I need a track with melodic bass PLEASE 4
NoOneDiesFromLove Posted February 7 Posted February 7 Wonder if Guilty as Sin? will give something like Carolina as she sings those lyrics in that song I love that song
cruelcooper Posted February 7 Posted February 7 It’s crazy seeing the dissolution of facts when it comes to Taylor in real time. The way she’s “over exaggerating” her stalker issue when it’s well documented that she has many and they’ve all done very scary and psychopathic things to get to her and her family/friends (most of which have probably never been released to the public). Or how she’s “nasty and cruel” () for suing a “poor middle class college student who’s just a baby!!🥺” when in reality he’s a Forbes 30 under 30 rich scumbag, grown ass MAN, who should know better but hides behind the bad faith “but it’s public info!1!” ****. Goes to show everyone is just waiting to dog pile on her for anything right now. Even her fans. Very concerning behaviour. Spoiler Some of y’all would have never survived the OG 1989 era 11
cruelcooper Posted February 7 Posted February 7 Having two songs back to back with question marks is kinda ugly to my eyes but i have faith they will come together to end Question…? (the worst Mid song)

This also raises the potential for a TTPD LPSS since I think it's going to be a more "organic" sounding album Nah I don't think so. I think TTPD will have more than 1 single and here's why: 1) If we're comparing it to folklore/evermore, TTPD is way more important 'cause it's her Joe breakup album when folkmore were kinda fictional. 2) Even folkmore had amazing single worthy material, but she decided to rush folklore era 'cause she was already writing evermore and knew it's gonna come out soon and rush evermore 'cause of re-recordings 3) folkmore were the quarantine albums, when TTPD is gonna be released when she's at her peak 4) Since it's her first breakup album since Red (2012), I fear it's gonna be her new magnum opus and THEE Taylor Swift album, 'cause her songwriting skills improved SO much. But it's just my high expectations lol. they will be justified anyway, so 1

burninredhot Posted February 7 Posted February 7 TTPD lead single will easily be a hit as long as it's not an embarrassment like ME!ss. The hype + her first week promo will lock that 1
wastedpotential Posted February 7 Posted February 7 Yeah, I have a feeling that whatever the lead from TTPD ends up being, it's going to be a smash hit. Maybe not a hit with the longevity of Anti-Hero or Cruel Summer, but it'll absolutely spend multiple or several weeks at #1 and will have a full, multi-format radio run. Whether there are other hits after remains to be seen (though I imagine she'll have at least one more knock-on hit). Her power is too great right now for a single to flop.
TayDuaStan Posted February 7 Posted February 7 3 hours ago, meredithbenson said: a now-deleted tiktok account, which mirrored the account that leaked the TTPD tracklist. but nobody knows if this account was credible or not (i think not, though i think sep 13th is a good guess) There’s also a tweet with the same release date for rep tv by an insider who previously leaked Dua Lipa’s Training Season title/release date, Charli XCX’s new single’s title & release date so maybe is true
The Man Who Posted February 7 Posted February 7 It’s so surreal to think we have 17 new songs coming out so soon. Midnights still feels like a new release to me. You can really tell how much she loves writing / releasing music. I don’t think I can name another artist or band who could release this regularly without showing any signs of artistic fatigue. She’s came a long way since 2006 and I’ve loved being there since the beginning. Let me listen to Tied Together With a Smile and cry. 5

I would collapse and never recover. Taylor's Dream Girl Evil incoming 1

Maroon legacy Posted February 7 Posted February 7 TTPD is actually gonna be her most self-aware and free album. She don't need to force herself into a pop genre to make a big comeback for the tour like on Midnights, 'cause she's at her peak and on tour already now. She don't need to hide her feelings in fictional songs anymore and test herself on her ability to write good lyrics like on folkmore, 'cause she knows she CAN and she WILL write good and she no longer need to hold back all the Joe tea. If you really think about it, this is her first album since Red where she is not limited by anything and has no other goal than to explore her deeply wounded feelings. It's definately gonna be her magnum opus idc
burninredhot Posted February 7 Posted February 7 I don't know about best album cuz it will be hard to top Red and folklore but I feel this will be a huge upgrade from Midnights 1
meredithbenson Posted February 7 Posted February 7 i think it's gonna be like midnights where we all love it first week, then for most of us it fades into a mid-tier (for taylor) album. the album will be great and we'll all have it as #1 bc of recency bias, but by june we'll all come to realize that reputation is truly #1

In fact those are some of the things she is known for
Klein Posted February 7 Posted February 7 I also feel like the fact it's coming this soon means it's going to be AMAZING. She truly doesn't have to release a new album to entertain anything. If what she had wasn't top notched, all she had to do is just release Rep and Debut TV this year and wait for some more artistic juice. This is just going to be amazing. The fact I'm even envisioning it could top evermore is WILD considering my love for this record. Spoiler Or it's just a mid cash grab to profit off of her absolutely diabolical success and popularity right now, but that's like a 1% chance of being true at this point. 1 1
