:reductive: this is the 3rd emotional album I didn’t know I needed, but really did. Halsey, Gaga and now Taylor really have been delivering for my soul

Gaga said "dance through the pain"

but Taylor said "let's just sit down because we can't dance"

again, reviewers are allowed to get material early, if chosen by label/publisher. When they are done, they can publish their reviews as soon as the review embargo goes up, which most do have it ready to published at a specific time.

This is actually pretty normal for a lot of releases in entertainment in general

Girl it is not normal for 10 or so raving reviews to go up exactly at launch time.

Top songs:  the 1, last American dynasty, seven, august, Betty, cardigan

Not the best: exile (I likes this one up until the point they started singing together), illicit affairs, invisible string, this is me trying, hoax, 

Gonna need a second listen: my tears ricochet, mirrorball, epiphany, mad woman

It’s definitely strategically planned knowing Taylor’s past. This is white privilege.

Overall there were like 4-5 songs that I actually really enjoyed. 

Those songs all reminded me of the beauty that is autumn/fall. Slightly cold weather, sweaters, the leaves, coffee. I got images of the woods, and sitting out by the lake with friends. Polaroids. 

I'll be listening to those repeatedly. 

 

The rest of the album was a snooze. She's just "reading lyrics" most of the time, never stopping to allow the song to breathe. She didn't do anything dynamic or interesting with lyrics nor delivery of them. 

Started strong, with some definite highlights, but that's about all I could ask for given in total not including these new songs, I like maybe 7-8 songs from her total.

It’s basically all ballads. Some are a bit livelier than others but ya. Folky ballads.

I think overall, the first half intrigued me more than the 2nd, not perfect because that 2nd half really took things in a different way than the 1st which hurt tbh.

The Last Great American Dynasty

August

This Is Me Trying

Exile

Epiphany are my top 5

But I will say this is def. better than some albums this year
