Message In A Butthole... What can we say? :ryan3:

I know that I'm tryna flee

And it's kinda frightenin'
Standing here listenin', listenin'
And I became horrified
By lyrics I truly despise
I tried

however, as a re-recorded album, Fearless TV > RED TV >= Speak Now TV > 1989 TV

the problem is for i don't know what reason her tracks 1 are almost never upon the best tracks of an album. Only tim mcgraw and state of grace are top 5 of their albums.

Some of the tracks 1 are instead in some cases some of the worst tracks in the album like welcome to north korea or sadly i can't forget this song exists

unpopular opinion but WTNY/Clean are also perfect bookends narratively tbh, even if i don't like the former that much. blondie had a vision

There's something here narratively but I don't want to entertained the idea that WTNY would be in any way shape or form comparable to all the other amazing songs discussed. :ryan3:

I know I'll be clowned for this (because most of the people here have no taste when it comes to poppy songs having great lyrics) but Lavender Haze/Mastermind/(Dear Reader) is probably my favorite combination. First of all, sonically LH and Mastermind are some of my favorite moments on the album and there are many ways one can interpret them. But then Dear Reader comes and tells us that she is indeed miserable and we as listeners shouldn't take what she's saying at face value. Midnights is like one big puzzle and Dear Reader is the key that shows how all the previous songs have very sad undertones, especially Lavender Haze.

I agree with you on Lavender Haze as a great opener. I really hate Mastermind though. Just a really bad song (I love the concept but it was poorly executed imo).

 

But if Dear Reader were the standard closer, it would've been perfect tbh :clap3:

The fact she seriously send this demo to the producers.

Now that we're past the truly horrifying song on the Red vault, let's get back to some Swiftian classic

 

I Bet You Think About Me is one of her most scathing song and I'm living for it. And she clocked each and everyone with the second to last line in the song "Oh my God, she's insane, she wrote a song about me".

 

Oh country Taylor the legend that you are. Hope your pettiness will never go away.

See, there are some bad Taylor song that I'd find funny if I got them, like ME! I'd just have a good laugh. 

 

There's really no redeeming quality to getting MIAB as a surprise song. Thank god you got RWYLM and CC after that because ultimate slays.

Just saw the track lengths :jonny6: "But Daddy I Love Him" made me excited to hear it

Forever Winter is one of the best song on Red TV, I said it. It's hurts soooooo much. I've seen most people say the song is about a romantic relationship, but ever since I read somewhere that this was about her friend who she lost at the time of Speak Now release, it has broken my soul. 

 

It's sometime really hard to listen to it, because that's a very heavy song. But it's just perfectly executed, with wonderful production, excellent lyrics, and top notch melodies.

 

That bridge brings tears into my eyes everytime.

Let's run.mp3 from the next track. Who asked for this and why did she think it had a place in here? It's just boring and adds nothing.

Now THIS is the bop this vault needed. I LOVE The Very First Night. I truly think it would have had its place on the original album, especially in place of I Almost Do. It's one of the song I'd really like as one of my surprise songs. 

 

This is a much needed moment before the emotional storm that's coming.

And we finish with the queen, the myth, the legend, ATW10. Thank you for the added content mother. We love to get a full story. 

 

No one cares if some line were penned in 2020/2021, but we do care that the production is not the same as the original. This is why I'm listening to the Sad Girl Autumn version most of the time.

 

The outro is one of the best outro of her entire career. 

 

Wind in my hair, I was there, I was there
Down the stairs, I was there, I was there
Sacred prayer, I was there, I was there
It was rare, you remember it all too well

 

:alexz:

 

There's really nothing that can truly reflect my love for this. Best break up song of all time for a reason.
