skizzo Posted April 30, 2024 Posted April 30, 2024 I would delete "Lover", but keep "DBATC", "False God", "Cornelia Street", "Cruel Summer" and "Afterglow"
Strawberry Bubble Posted April 30, 2024 Posted April 30, 2024 Deleting lover means deleting cruel summer
CécredSpaces Posted April 30, 2024 Posted April 30, 2024 21 hours ago, Cruel Summer said: I have to go for Lover. It has some great songs and Cruel Summer's resurgence as part of the Eras Tour narrative was amazing to witness, but it feels less essential to the canon of her artistic growth, development, and identity than any of the others. I couldn't bring myself to get rid of Reputation, Midnights feels too essential to her current career arc, and TTPD is now my favorite album in her discography. Lover's role could essentially have been served by a completely different pop album. She needed a mediocre album for Folklore and Evermore to work. Lover served its purpose.
Ewan Chaos Posted April 30, 2024 Posted April 30, 2024 Can't decide between Reputation and Midnights. I dislike Rep the most of her albums, but don't love where we're at with Taylor these days which is clearly a direct result of Midnights doing so well (which I would have been fine with if the album wasn't so bad...). Went with Midnights
Nico Robin Posted April 30, 2024 Posted April 30, 2024 Lover and I would also choose the same songs as you +- 2 more
eli's_rhythm Posted April 30, 2024 Posted April 30, 2024 I can't believe Midnights has the least votes when it's the most forgettable project here with the least career highs! 1
Tistotal Posted May 3, 2024 Posted May 3, 2024 This really put me in perspective that folklore and her ugly sister evermore weren't the rule but the exception. OT: TTPD and midnights.
RobynYoBank Posted May 3, 2024 Posted May 3, 2024 I want it to be Lover, but after Eras Tour I don't know if I can sacrifice Cruel Summer.
Baltie Posted May 3, 2024 Posted May 3, 2024 TTPD. I love Taylor but I just don't see myself going back to this particular album. It's too long and some of the lyrics feel like word salad masquerading as "poetry". The other albums I'd probably voluntarily listen to again in the future. If I were to rank them, it'd be reputation > Lover > Midnights.
Rence Posted May 3, 2024 Posted May 3, 2024 Midnights if I can keep 3AM. Otherwise I'll go with rep. Lover and TTPD despite having some lows still have many career highlights.
