GraceRandolph Posted April 19 Share Posted April 19 These lyrics just confirm what we've all known. Jack Antonoff doesn't push back or edit her ideas enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PMM Posted April 19 Share Posted April 19 yes. Just because her writing is sometimes bad (your examples) doesn't mean that she cannot write anymore. she still can write, just sometimes her pen is weak Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kitboga Posted April 19 Share Posted April 19 only when she isnt trying to be. whenever she tries extra hard to demostrate her "lyrical geniusness" like with this album, she just ends up making wordy read-out-loud clasroom assignments instead of proper songs. espically in today's standard where all you need is a quick 2:30 tune with catchy production and melody, the overdone word salad messes are so unnecessary. i guess this is exactly what happens when you buy into your own tale which you created. 5 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cat1867 Posted April 19 Share Posted April 19 Yes. Most great writers have plenty of silly and cringe lines . Those who try to avoid those at all costs don't take risks needed for amazing writing. Anyway, that verse is supposed to be ridiculous since it's about showing how her and her partner are modern idiots and not actually tortured poets. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gladiator Posted April 19 Share Posted April 19 focusing on one line on one song of 31 as evidence for her being a bad lyricist? try harder. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
badidearight Posted April 19 Share Posted April 19 yes! and i'm happy everyone (even her biggest haters) seem to be checking for her new music 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wildsidenormani Posted April 19 Share Posted April 19 No. TTPD is far too wordy and try-hard. She's lost her touch 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Duff Posted April 19 Share Posted April 19 Weird, I find the lyricism in TTPD so much better than Midnights (and Midnights also have strong lyrics). I think the Charlie Puth line works with the melody of the song... It's a bit campy but I didn't feel like it's an awkward lyric, it fit right in. TTPD (title track) is actually one of those cleverly made songs in the album. I guess it's just me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Klein Posted April 19 Share Posted April 19 (edited) Obsessing over one line in a 31 songs album should answer your own question. Edited April 19 by Klein 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
