1989 (trying my best to be non bias) is the standard for pop albums in 2018 now. If we are going off the the pure 13 track standard edition this album gives you completely great pop songs (Style, Blank Space, Bad Blood) more deeper tracks that are still fun (I Know Places, Out Of The Woods) and slower songs that are packed with emotion heft (This Love, I Wish You Would, and the brilliant Clean). There is not one filler on this album.

 

I do have to give katy some credit because Teenage Dream is a very good pop album. I love LFNTGIF,TOTGA and Teenage Dream itself. It also holds my favorite katy song (Pearl) and did have 5 number 1's which taylor could not do. So it still gets that honor. 

Pop Music and Lady Gaga forever!

100% agree. Prism is my favorite Katy album and double rainbow is in my top 3 katy songs.

lol I don't even remember listening to these two

but for sure Prism is better than Teenage Dream as a whole (while Teenage Dream had good singles)

Cause once you let it go you better know it's gone

1989 as a pop era was very successful from promos, singles and mvs, album launch, performances, huge tour and culminates with winning GrammyS, capital S.

Not that I am belittling Katy’s TD but it was great in singles, tour and maybe some nice performances.

But Taylor was really something during 1989. Just name a contemporary popstar that could rival such sustained consistency within an album era.

TD had better videos and visuals, but 1989 is the fat superior album. Singles are fairly even. Both leads are terrible but "Style" and "Blank Space" is better than any TD single

Teenage Dream is one of the best pop albums of all time. Every single song was perfection. 1989 had a lot of skip worthy songs...

both pale in comparison to this pop masterpiece which has a similar (but better) sound.

This was a good one, but I have to say Teenage Dream for me. It gives me that young love feeling.

I only listen to Teenage dream singles and a few more songs, 1989 doesn't have a single one skippable song so.. 

raw

I prefer 1989, but to me it’s kind of an unfair (but at the same time extremely fair) comparison.

Teenage Dream the song is superior to all of 1989, but the album has like 7 great songs, and the rest are filler.

It just sounded like Taylor went into the studio and said “This is my first pop record, but I want my songwriting to still be ON and I want it to stand apart as actually being an album, and not a singles compilation” and Katy took the opposite approach. 

Both are obviously great, but imo 1989 is a pop masterpiece. 

I’m a simple guy to please, if you like Melodrama, we chill.

Actually the tour wasn’t that successful for TD.

Katy was weirdly overexposed, and underrated at the same time during that era.

Overexposed in that you turn on a radio and it’s like 8 Katy songs all on constant roatation, but underrated in that it had a commercially unsuccessful tour, and didn’t win too many awards.
