Grade Taylor Swift's albums
Debut - 5/10 - only use like 4 songs from this album, the rest is meh Fearless - 8/10 - a 17 yo wrote it and it's pretty great Speak Now - 7.5/10 - needs an editor on some songs Red - 9.5/10 - messy but great. still her best album after all these years 1989 - 9/10 - delete bad blood and we have a ten reputation - 8/10 - great first half, wish she did more heavy sound but she went mellow instead Lover - 5/10 - meh. false good is good tho. she could make it better but looking at its inspiration, she did what she could, i guess folklore - 9.5/10 - great songs, beautiful songs (epiphany is a bit of a drag tho) evermore - 8/10 - delete no grammys, no hits and diarrhea then we have a great album midnights - 6.5/10 - mid, ok-ish, shouldn't have won aoty but good for her ttpd - 7.5/10 - the writing is a bit messy and whinny but i guess that's what she wanted showgirl - 6/10 - it has some good songs but after midnights and ttpd, i just find her current style of writing old and boring. max martin certainly couldn't help making it more interesting

Why are there so many daughters of Lana and Taylor?
if you want people who can sing you can watch the voice or singing contest shows so people don't give a f about vocalists anymore. labels can see that too so they invest in singer songwriters more and who's the most prominent singer songwriters of the last decade?

cant wait to hear "you said the way my blue eyes shine, put those georgia stars to shame at night, i said that's a lie" with improved vocals so brilliant without trying too hard.

i'm not sure if i said this in here before but i have a feeling that she's focused way too much on her lyrical content after folkmore and so her melodies and production took a big hit in quality. and as a non-native speaker, i tend to focus on the melody, instruments and vocals before i even know what she sings about. and let me just say, midnights, as a somewhat upbeat pop album, imo, has subpar melodies compared to ttpd. also we can't blame her collaborators for everything because she also sit there when they produced her songs. so if we criticize the productions, she's also part of the problem. i hate to say this but i have to agree with oths that she needs to take a longer break to get inspired and improve written songs.

now we need someone close to her to say what punisher said to her ears like ts13 should be a completely new sound for her. going back to root is kinda lame, judging by her recent outputs.

tour effect doesn't count honey. like it's not an indicator for longevity at all. i just think that only some of her albums have that "classic" feel to them and will stick around for sure. midnights and showgirl, imo, don't have it. but i also don't think loser has it and it's still charting after all these years so we'll see

right, just like her classique least-deserved aoty midnights with 31 songs total racking up, i guess, around 2-3M streams daily. i dont see how a worse album could stand the test of time, except ophelia since its the only great song and a smash hit. also the fact that without a deluxe, showgirl was streamed like 4 or 5M daily, there's even a thread about it, shows that no, this album won't stand the test. which is fine, tbh. no discography is perfect.
