Ampersand13 10 - "I really wish people gave this song more of a chance because I genuinely think it's one of Taylor's finest singles. I sometimes think that because so much of Taylor's brand is synonymous with melodrama, that some may find it difficult to discern when she's using histrionics as a storytelling device that's not meant to be taken at face value. It's easy to hear a lyric like "I love you, it's ruining my life" and assume the author is either exaggerating or obscenely theatrical. However, I don't think either is the case in Fortnight. From the moment I heard this song it was clear to me that these overzealous turns of phrases were designed to articulate a delusional state of mind that tricks you into thinking the world is ending when it isn't. It's less about the dramatics of heartbreak and more about defining the line between what happened and what felt like it happened. I think this is such a brilliantly written piece of pop music that audiences were so quick to dismiss. There are times in which I worry that my deep love for Taylor's music makes me, in turn, somewhat rose colored and out of touch, but then I read through some of the takes regarding this song find comfort in the resolution that sometimes people are just wrong. Fortnight is, to me, the best example of precedence impacting the present. Had she not released Fortnight during this specific moment in her career, I think it would have been received differently.

Great Username Posted September 5 Posted September 5 This hymn requires at least 12 PHDs to truly get it... There should have been an IQ test requirement to vote 2
Catch22 Posted September 5 Posted September 5 Fortnight is a great song, idk why many of you actively hate it. The synths in the 2 part of the chorus ALWAYS get me. 3
1989 Posted September 5 Posted September 5 Fortnight is good, not nearly as bad as y'all make it out to be, but I wouldn't have it make the top 100
Dear Reader Posted September 5 Posted September 5 Fortnight is a great song indeed, it's just not top 100 material, I'm sorry 1 1
paulyyyozd Posted September 5 Posted September 5 UGH. perfect lead single for the album, such an ear worm. Post really came through with his part
Great Username Posted September 5 Posted September 5 The chilling, hypnotic, repetitive, insistent beat... Jack cooked. Whole sing feels like being slowly devoured by dread. Perfection 2
Brooklyn Baby Posted September 5 Author Posted September 5 The next song is peace, hoax, or the lakes. If you had to choose ONE, which would you remove first? 1
Bussea Posted September 5 Posted September 5 and of course you're at the scene of the crime @blown away you make my ASS ITCH. do you like ANYTHING 6
Great Username Posted September 5 Posted September 5 And for a Fort Night There We were Forever kill me
Bussea Posted September 5 Posted September 5 Just now, Forever Winter said: The next song is peace, hoax, or the lakes. Which song do you want OUT? bye piss!
