honestly besides TS12/additional songs, the biggest gag would be if it was the first lyric of the album. a perfect way to launch into the album release :jonny5:

I would prefer and ATW-kind of short-film with more dialogues. Or 2-3 songs in 1 short-film with dialogues. I don't think that making a visual album for 16 tracks is a good idea

Now imagine a concept like that but better organized and directed by Taylor

When on Friday she has the nerve to ask for $17 dollars more after spending the last 2 months begging for money 


TTPD might aswell be renamed the TIPS era

It always kiils me when people overanalyze her Easter Eggs to death because they're all always really straightforward. :rip:

What's interesting is 25s sales were the main reason it won AOTY… so if she did break it somehow, there would have to be a serious conversation on her chances

You know what...I don't think I've ever solved any of The Riddler's various Easter eggs and other bullshit over the years because by the time I learn it's even a thing, it has been hours and solved thousands of times over by everyone else. :clack:

yeah, that's true. Midnights was made for pop, TTPD's for ART. Billie will probably win a lot next year

I mean, Gaga's idea of an "ARTPOP film" was great, but Taylor's direction can do it better

Yeah i'm not the biggest fan of Gaga, but she is miles and miles away a better director than miss Swift:suburban:

When the video begins with Taylor working in a sepia building in which poets are tortured, then transitions to her visiting a version of London in which all of the buildings are tall (and she stares at the camera saying "Wow so long, London”) and the last act of the video is her meeting a minimoy and falling in love with him as "The Smallest Man Who Ever Lived" plays. Throw in a few skits and random celebrity cameos.

 

Like please, we were lucky enough to be  spared of a Midnight Rain MV with her love interest dressed like this

Okay, walk with me: Florence, I believe, has been influencing her a lot lately. If not influencing, at least singing about the same topics Taylor's showing interest in: domesticity, how to deal with fame and art, etc. I think there are many connections between Florence's King (beyond the dress she uses on the song's MV that Taylor copied/bought the same one for the folklore set on the Eras) and songs such as peace, you're losing me, the great war

 

Florence's King: "We argue in the kitchen about whether to have children/ About the world ending and the scale of my ambition/ And how much is art really worth? / The very thing you're best at is the thing that hurts the most / But you need your rotten heart, your dazzling pain like diamond rings / You need to go to war to find material to sing / I am no mother, I am no bride, I am king

 

Add to that the lyrics from the eclipse (Florence was always very high on cosmical stuff, moon, stars, planets) that seem to be about being on tour, a topic that Florence has been exploring for a long time now also, but lot more since being sober (a lot of High as Hope and Dance Fever are about the high you get when on the stage in front of a crowd) (and I suspect that Florida is about being on tour, the same song with Welch is in it).

 

There's also, obviously, the Jack connection between the two. And there's the matter of Florence anticipating Beyoncé at the helm of 21st-century visual albums with HBHBHB and The Odyssey. If I wanted to expand my power and abilities as a director, the next logical step forward, it seems, is to make a visual album (like Beyoncé). And if my producer worked with an artist that had already made one, and if I'm at a point in life that seems very similar to that artist, I'd call them. But idk

The amount of hype this has… and also it leaked and it's good. It's 10 years response waiting- he can block her even on BB100. Now everyone in here gonna say "no one is powerful as hers!! You're stupid!!”

 

Fine. Let's see.

Drake had every chance to release this dass track last friday and ruin Metro and Future's album, but he didn't.

Now watch him drop this sh*t April 19th just to be annoying. Hate him.
