LoveInStereo Posted July 29 Share Posted July 29 4 hours ago, Supervillain said: It will be remembered as one of the most desperate eras of all time. This is such a chronically online take. Born This Way for 99c, Anti's mass purchased Samsung copies, Red bundled with Papa John's: the GP remembers the hits, the visuals, the live performances - everything but those gimmicks. Gaming the charts doesn't matter outside of stan discourse. OT: It's absolutely gonna be remembered. Forget your personal feelings on the material, the length of the album alone makes it remarkable. I don't think it'll be remembered as a top tier, fan fav TS album but it'll def be remembered for being ambitious & that's rly not even up for debate 2 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wonderland Posted July 29 Share Posted July 29 I have the feeling it will be remembered the same way "25" is: Massive (and historic) chart success but the material just wasn't really there to back up the hype Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Music Industry Posted July 29 Share Posted July 29 (edited) Y'all always say Taylor's albums won't be remembered only for them to still chart and have insane streams years and years later so take that as you will Edited July 29 by The Music Industry 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popboi. Posted July 29 Share Posted July 29 You know you can't ask this to atrl when the OTSH are saying "already forgotten!!!111" while it's likely going back to #1 this week. Completely out of touch with reality cause she's not in their dolls night out playlist. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It just gets repeated every other album cycle. It must be some type of coping mechanism at this point 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Enrique523 Posted July 29 Share Posted July 29 Yes it will but you are free to think otherwise if it helps you sleep better at night i guess 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
duybeeGAshantiGA Posted July 29 Share Posted July 29 It will be remembered for its sales and how it's her first critically panned project only. Nothing more than that. Not Fortnight. Not quality music. No nothing. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cruel Summer Posted July 29 Share Posted July 29 Well, contrary to what some of y'all here believe, the Swifties consuming this album do actually count as people and are part of the broader general population, so I'm gonna have to go with yes.

Enrique523 Posted July 29 Share Posted July 29 (edited) 5 hours ago, aotwbys said: Yes, the album will be remembered. I do not think it will have a redemption moment like reputation, bc the lyrics are her worst to date, and there's no getting around it. I think a couple of songs could have a shot of being like Don't Blame Me. Her underhanded chart tactics won't be too memorable for this album bc I could see her doing the same for her next albums. I personally believe TTPD will be remembered as a necessary stepping stone to a better future album (in which she may lyrically reference TTPD!) Yeah, keep thinking that. Keep picking up a few lyrics here and there to generalize the entire album You just know people saying this sh*t have not listened to the album or have listened to it only once with the intention of hating it from the start Edited July 29 by Enrique523 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
taylor__fan Posted July 29 Share Posted July 29 Who knows? I'm sure 5 years ago you, almost everybody would have said that Lover was going to be a fad and look at it now. Only time will tell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taylor fanboy Posted July 29 Share Posted July 29 (edited) I actually think it will. I know OTHs will never let go of the fact that this album has songs allegedly about Ratty. For that alone, it will be remembered and discussed for eternity. Edited July 29 by Taylor fanboy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XXI. Posted July 29 Share Posted July 29 (edited) I haven't heard a song from this album, and usually Taylor Swift albums are inescapable... so I'm inclined to say probably not? I feel like when people look back at this period in Taylor's career this album will be overshadowed by the Eras Tour - which was just an incredible phenomena. As a more casual fan of Swift it feels like this album (for me at least) got lost in the shuffle of a monstrous world tour, friendship bracelets, the 22 hat, her new boyfriend, and the re-recordings. There was just so much happening I never had the chance to digest this album properly. Edited July 29 by XXI. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
