poll Did this old ATRLer spill about Speak Now vs. Red?

[Taylor fanboy]

Quote

Speak Now is pure perfection. It's funny how she went from contemporary Joni Mitchell to the new Avril Lavigne.

I fear I'm compelled to vote for Speak Now because I scored it higher in the most recent discography rate, but whew what a pair of excellent records. Other girls wish they had albums as good as Speak Now or Red, and Taylor has a few more 

[Bosque]

Red has aged kind of badly. Speak Now clears it with ease 

[iamanearthling]

It has always been RED and will always be RED.

Speak Now is still incredible though. Imagine writing that at 19.

[Pop Fan]

Red has higher highs and lower lows.
 

Speak Now is more consistent but it doesn't have the classics and is a lil bit forgettable. Speak Now's impact, commercial performance and quality is very similar to Olivia's Guts.

[aesthetic bih]

Speak Now is more consistent. It has lots of highs and no lows unlike Red (SSS)

 

Speak Now also aged better because it didn't chase trends unlike Red (IKYWT & 22)

 

In conclusion, SN wins in terms of quality

[AndThenTheCocaine]

Yes. /endthread

 

Remember Red has the avant-garde royalty-free commercial jingle named Stay Stay Stay, which should've stay stay stayed in the vault tbh

[The Music Industry]

Red is Taylor's third best album, while Speak Now is her fourth best album. 

 

(folklore and evermore are #1 and #2) 

 

[poki]

I do see some similarities in their music at the time

 

 

[Illuminati]

Yes, thank you old atrler

[Princess Aurora]

Yes

[Petra von Kant]

red is literal ass

 

speak now is pretty good I could say, one of her best and proof that despite all that bs she has released over the years she could/can produce good music as well (sometimes)
