Like I’m genuinely baffled. Where did this come from. She became so self aware she wrapped back around to having no self awareness whatsoever

Taylor Swift has spent her entire career making sweet love songs for nobodies, and bitter and/or melancholic breakup songs to somebodies.

I never even realized that, but his new album is REALLY putting into perspective for me just how key that particular dynamic has been to her universal appeal.

Sean Fay-Wolfe | Diamond Axe Studios @seanfaywolfe.bsky.social · 9d

I'm not upset that she's making songs like that.

I'm upset that she's the last remaining vestige of monoculture that exists in America, the last celebrity who's every move informs a universal cultural identity, while simultaneously not being very GOOD at making songs like that.

I feel like if you are personally upset about a conventionally attractive pop musician writing a song about good sex with another conventionally attractive famous personality to a level where you have to post through it that 2025 is a wild year to find out what pop music is

I'd argue that Taylor has been this way for at least her last 3 albums, and the only one that worked was Midnights since that one was frantic and scatterbrained by design.

I'm hope the problems of this one will make more people understand why I really didn't care for TTPD very much at all.

There is an over abundance of lyrics on "The Life of a Showgirl".

I am going to draw a comic book analogy: it is possible to make a good comic that has well-placed heavy dialogue, but at some point you have to trust the art to tell the story.

Good morning, gamers. Help me out here.

Trying to make a playlist of every Clearly Inspired By Blinding Lights song from the early 2020's (strong 80's vibe, drums hit on every beat with one double-tap in there, synth line runs through the song as the main hook)

There's more than you'd think.

that's a lie because i'm 20 and addicted to saying 67 at any opportunity

camz / jade 🌸 @camzcer.bsky.social · Sep 1

69 and 67 is where Gen Z and Gen Alpha split. that's the generational divide

The Subway by Chappell Roan and You're Beautiful by James Blunt are both about roughly the same experience

i'm sorry there is just no excuse to release anything less than perfect in this music landscape. when music like this exists , you gotta think twice before hitting release. before sending the stems to mixing and mastering. before locking in those vocal takes. before leaving the studio. before
