Edonis 25,972 Posted March 16, 2016 Share Posted March 16, 2016 So I'm not really a big Taylor Swift fan (she just doesn't make the kind of music I like) buuuuut I love New Romantics. It's fun and has a nice beat and is very catchy. I was wondering though, would it have made a better lead single over Shake it Off? Let us assume that NR made the standard release and wasn't a deluxe edition song. Would the era have been more exciting if NR was chosen over SIO? Or do you think the song should have been released and made a single earlier? (Over Bad Blood, or even wildest dreams?) Discuss girlies. Keep it cute.

Fiona Apple 13,006 Posted March 16, 2016 Share Posted March 16, 2016 Well Shake It Off was the safe option and it slayed the charts for weeks so it was obviously a great choice.. Is New Romantics a better song? Obviously Bad Blood shouldn't have been a single at all (even tho it hit #1 it's such a mediocre song).And they should have released NR instead of it Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Math 92 Posted March 16, 2016 Share Posted March 16, 2016 No, Shake It Off is probably the most relatable song on the album (and that on a Taylor Swift album is A LOT) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SIO was about giving the back to the haters. That is a swag concept. Because swag is such a mainstream movement I would say no. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Creyk 16,836 Posted March 16, 2016 Share Posted March 16, 2016 No, shake it off actually has an amazing message. 95% of her music does not. plus the bridge is everything. it was a perfect choice. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Child 18,994 Posted March 16, 2016 Share Posted March 16, 2016 How could I know? Except for the singles (the last single I listened to from her was Wildest Dreams) I never heard the rest of 1989. ‘If religion be the cause of disunity, then irreligion is surely to be preferred.’ ‘Abdu’l-Bahá Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Logan 20,538 Posted March 16, 2016 Share Posted March 16, 2016 I stan for Taylor hardcore but Shake It Off got stale really fast and it's incredibly basic. New Romantics has a lot more substance to it but it wouldn't have done better because the repetitive Shake It Off is catchy to the gp and easy for people to remember.

Same there is only about 11 songs on there and we have heard half so there is no point I agree with u Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
