The Alchemy is like... so archetypically a Taylor song but in a sinister way. If I didn't know her better I'd suspect AI was involved.

 

the lowest ranking cowboy carter song not being that Joanne cover... 

Shygirl catching strays here... Alias was like the best EP of whatever year it came out.

Please spill. I am a Superstar T stan down, so I guess I need to join the hate train.

They were meant to go on a joint tour and Shygirl pulled out at the last minute. She claimed some health/medical issue, but it came out that she saw the production value of Tinashe's set and knew her show didn't match up so she pulled out out of sheer embarrassment.

Yeah, it's just not on the level of what Taylor is capable of producing. I feel like she's been stuck in a sonic mode since Folklore (which is great!) and it has run its course. She needs a major shake-up for her next record.

i kinda feel like this (this really is one album too many in this vibe) but the more time i've actually spent with it the more i can get past the 'same old same old' feeling and think that she's still doing good work here, just not what she's capable of

 

LOML

 

Average score: 5.85

High score: 10 (@a_d_22, @Ken Lee,@Achilles., @Norte)

Low score: 1 (@Europe)

 

 

Taylor has never spoken publicly about the collapse of her six-year relationship with Joe Alwyn. Many dedicated experts in Swiftology believe this bruising ballad from The Tortured Poets Department is a glimpse into the hell beneath their seemingly heavenly love – especially because (twist alert!) the title actually stands for “loss of my life.” But with references to rekindled flames that should’ve stayed buried, a low-down boy in a suite and tie, and the momentary, counterfeit nature of their passion, “Loml” sounds to these amateur ears more like another lament for Matty Healy.

 

Best bit: “A con man sells a fool a get-love-quick scheme/But I've felt a hole like this/Never before and ever since”

 

ATRL says…: “You can tell that the post-2014 Swifties are worthless because why the hell were they batting for ‘My Basic Ass Only Stans The Most Cliche Pop Bops,’ ‘I Can Make This Song in Five Minutes,’ and ‘The Most Overrated Bridge Ever Penned’ when this absolute masterpiece was sitting right there,” @Achilles. fumed. “You are stanning the songwriter of the century, not Ariana Grande. Act like it!” @KatyPrismSpirit agreed it’s the “best song on the album” and it broke @Ken Lee's heart. </3

 

@makeawish pointed out that it “doesn't really have a hook, which made it tricky to get on with at first, but it's another one where there's a real pointedness to the vocal. She's really spitting at times on this.” @Ace Reject wanted to “imagine if Tori Amos had arranged this...” @MusicLoverDude thought it had “some questionable lyrics” but found it “overall enjoyable.” It was “too ‘Folklore’-sounding” for @Hyune's liking. “Wait, this is kind of a sister song with ‘L'Amour de Ma Vie"! ,” @Curaga observed.

 

@Suilen called it a “mid song and it reminds me of the fact that my ex-friend used to obsesses over this woman - her boss - in her 60s and call her loml in spite of the woman in question being straight as hell. Thankfully, she eventually got over her and found somebody her age.”

LOML deserved higher wtf

If Sophie's swan song SLIME doesn't move y'all then I don't know what to tell you.

 

 

SUPERNATURAL (REMIX)

ft. Troye Sivan

 

Average score: 5.86

High score: 10 (@makeawish, @glitch, @Crashed)

Low score: 1 (@K$Ellie, @Mark Rih, @Born to Run)

 

 

Tacked onto a deluxe edition of Eternal Sunshine that dropped a few days after the album’s release, this Troye Sivan duet suggested “Supernatural” would soon be getting the single treatment. Alas, it was not to be for that fan favorite track – a definite surprise in the streaming era, where star-studded remixes are never just for the art not the charts.

 

Best bit: The way Troye drops his voice to sing “show you that I can take it.” Masc top confirmed!

 

ATRL says…: Let’s fight about Troye Sivan! “The twink is superfluous here,” @Suilen scoffed. “Troye did great with this,” @MusicLoverDude gushed. “Why would a man be there? Why would a man be there??” @Graves moaned. “Can't really say that it's not as good as the OG version,” @makeawish conceded, “plus Troye is still trying to make that ‘it's Troye baby!’ sample happen, good for him.” @Helix usually loves Troye, “but this song just didn't need a remix, he kinda adds nothing to it.” @glitch “fully thought the Troye remix was fake the first time I heard it. I thought some gay had just ripped the ‘Troye baby’ part from ‘What’s the Time Where You Are?’”

Who will be left to hate Ariana Grande?

Aw I thought this was good. I use it more than the solo tbh

Well this is depressing (and The Alchemy's not about Travis)

Anyway, carry on with the Tortuted Defartments lashings.

I've been informed the Swifties no longer trust me as a host, but they really needed to drop a few more ballots in this to balance things out

Troye somehow keeps booking these pop girl remixes and they never improve the songs no shade

 

Finally made it...
