Maroon, Midnight Rain, Question, Vigilante $h!t, Labyrinth and Dear Reader not dark enough for you then?

For her current fan base yes but I'd like to see her push herself.

Artists aren't allowed anymore cos of the fandoms, plus Taylor lost half the fan base once she revealed she's a Democrat and the reputation era scared most people away. 

 

So why do that again. 

 

She's one of the few critics respect, hell midnights is 5 stars on Rolling stone, that's difficult to get. 

 

This is her best reviewed pop album. 

 

It got better reviews than few pop albums.  

 

Might be Down from Folklore,  but after the "magnum opus", that's what's expected more of that. 

 

So midnights is a disappointment to some cos it's safe after Folklore was a major departure,  especially considering it's the defining mood of the pandemic.

I'm not saying it's bad. It's just tiring but if the formula works then why change it.

She's shocked she's still as popular as she was 16 years ago, hinting she's 32, and in pop star years that's geriatric (senior citizen) as pop music is typically a youth driven market, so for someone like taylor swift who's  over the hill according to her pop music and in today's pop star's where her biggest impact on today's acts including Olivia Rodrigo,  who was only 2 or 3 years old when the self titled album dropped in 2006,when Taylor swift herself was only 16, which at that time. 

 

Unless you were Disney,  outside the brief 90s and 00s teen pop bubblegum era,most acts were in their early to mid 20s when they started in the industry. 

 

Taylor,  probably due to MySpace was the catalyst in the shift of signing acts not 18, due to the money in that demographic is better as they don't have jobs or responsibilities. 

 

Hell today's teens aren't working,  so they can fully enjoy high school experience.  

 

But yeah, she  coyly reminded everybody at 32,  she's supposed to be irrelevant and senior citizen cos it's pop music and you're not supposed to be a certain age doing pop music..

...what? 

WB is probably what everybody would want, just exaggerated, and yet it's just a fun song, nothing actually serious. TS actually writes her lyrics, and most of them come from experience. Like.... what?

She literally has a song that lists off stereotypical expensive or associated with celebrity things such as hot bodies, bugattis, maserattis, lamborginis, martinis, looking hot in bikinis, living fancy, big mansions and partying in France...it's ironic that you would cite as a reason to dislike Taylor, but not Britney. 

I'm going to assume you're using Blank Space as an example, which Taylor has said was written as a parody of how the media portrayed her. What songs are you referencing?

not reasons to dislike her but to not relate to her; I'm not a stan so I couldn't pinpoint every reference but in general she seems to always or mostly tell stories of rich people or rich people environments or activities

Britney nor a single song of hers have a single thing to do with my point.

Taylor swift is rich, kinda hard to relate to us folks, Plain and simple. 

 

It's her life now, it's hard to relate anybody not rich 

 

We are looked down on cos we could be there if we put in the hard work.

99% of the songs are very relatable. It is okay to have a fancy song every once in a while.

My Lavender CD finally got dispatched from the store. But I'm still waiting on my other order with the Jade CD and cassette to ship.

I hope at some point I can get a vinyl.

Breaking records with no first single or promo schedule … insanity

I'm getting the Mahogany one today

I wish Vigilante **** had flavor. She was almost there but Jack Antonoff and his vanilla production ruined it.

Taylor should be crucified for making Midnight Rain so short.
