I thought I was crazy. Style was mixed HORRENDOUSLY. I also don’t like whatever the **** those faint sound effects are in New Romantics. Everything else sounds stellar though. Clean sounds incredible

Railing

- some parts, e.g. Bad Blood as a whole sound weird, in a sense that the audio sounds muffled or nasal? the Kendrick Lamar remix is comparatively fine

- the mixing is very weird across the board, with so much being quieter or louder than it should be. it makes the production feel messier and more haphazard than it did on the original record. someone on the team is holding Ms. Swift back

- some vocals are just slightly off-beat, like the chorus in Style or the ah-ahs before the bridge in New Romantics. very much a nitpick and something I'll get used to eventually, but it distracts me on first listens and it distracted me on I Knew You Were Trouble back in 2021.

- the songs that have always been Jack Antonoff-produced are the most faithful to the originals, as expected

- best song Wonderland got what it deserved

Ugh that would be kind of a letdown tbh :/

personally I don’t see 1989 as a ballads album. It’s her club bangers album 

Club…bangers?… :oprah:

they hit as pop but…club? Girl idk bout that :laughga:

to me, everything sounds just as good, if not better…except style. style will take some getting used to. i was so nervous for shake it off for some reason, but it sounds amazing. 

biggest upgrades: i wish you would, out of the woods, and clean. you are in love also sounds great.

favorite vault track: suburban legends (which no one else seems to be talking about lol)

also for those of ya’ll wondering if she’s rushing through these: all signs point to 1989 being done years ago. she had released two songs from it and was hinting at dropping it soon. a lot of stans think the bulk of the re-releases have been done for a while, but she decided to wait and time them with the eras tour once they started planning that

i do agree that the vault songs sound very midnights-vibes though. when 1989 came out, she said she wrote hundreds of songs for it. artists love to exaggerate and say stuff like that, but i almost wonder if most of them were written with max martin and she either didn’t want to or couldn’t use them for that reason. 

 

also, i think for 1989 specifically, we’ve all heard these singles sooooooo many times. it was always going to be the album people noticed the most minute differences on
