Do all millennials like Taylor Swift?

Not all of course but a lot. Same with Gen Z

+1, I think she’s a good song writer and singer but her live performance are so stilted and repetitive to me.

And she’s never used anything as bad as Katy Perry’s “do you ever feel like a plastic bag” which is the WORST pop lyric of all time, lol.


Haha. Well, to be fair to Katy, it's "like a plastic bag drifting through the wind."

Shake it Off, Blank Space, Bad Blood, Me, You Belong with Me, Wildest Dream, Ready for It, Mean, We are Never Getting Back Together, I knew you were Trouble, You Need to Calm Down, Anti-Hero...

Those are just off the top of my head. You may not love all of them, but I bet you could sing at least some of the lyrics.



Yes, she has tons of popular songs, by imo very few of them are catchy. That’s what I find mystifying.


Not catchy, omg I have to quickly turn the station when her songs come on or they will be in my head for DAYS. Some of the posts here make me want to listen to the full albums, I'm intrigued.


This is the definition of catchy!

Can you explain why those are "forced lyrics"? (I'm not sure what a "forced lyric" is, actually. I know what a forced rhyme is, but that's clearly not what you're talking about)


It seems like she used "at tea time" because she needed three syllables -- because, really, is tea time a common time when American people get together and discuss things??

In Karma, she's naming positive things. Are tons of people hoping to be taken to the summit of a mountain, as opposed to, I dunno, the movies?? Lol. Forced.


"at teatime" rhymes in Taylor's world with the lyric "it's me, hi" I'm OK with that one but you're right,the karma one is bad. A purring cat flexing like a g.damn acrobat?

As a songwriter she's gifted and she's prolific, but not always at the same time.

“At tea time” means when people are gossiping (spilling the tea)

Lyrically, I agree that Karma isn’t her strongest. It’s hella catchy though. If you are genuinely curious about her understanding why people praise her songwriting, listen to her 2020 albums. She released both folklore and evermore in 2020 and show a different side than Midnights or the rest of her catalog.

So not the group the post was asking about, but you just had to speak anyway? Is that a Gen X thing?

I am Gen X mom of two millennials. I love TS. I think she is very measured and mature. Haters gonna hate.

Same!

So many of her songs are relatable at any age, if you’ve ever been in a relationship – which is the majority of us.
