Most kids just stream music, which you can do for free. I have listed to the whole thing twice including repeats on demand for free on pandora with some ads.

People buying albums are collectors or want the art. So they would PREFER more.

I feel like she screwed over her fans who preordered the album on iTunes who now have to pay twice for the same songs (12.99 + 14.99) when they could have had them all for 14.99. Like she needs more money.

Can someone explain this to me. They are two different albums. They aren’t the same songs.
Explain it like I’m 5.

They can’t explain it to you because they don’t understand it. They think people are mad because she release two albums, but that’s not it it.

Here’s an excerpt from an article Explain why people are mad…

Taylor Swift’s forthcoming album The Tortured Poets Department will be released on four different-coloured vinyl editions, each of them containing a different bonus track to incentivise fans to buy all four.

Why is it so hard for you to understand. Fan preordered one album so she took their money for that one. Then 2 hrs later released another album with an additional 15 songs, not jus tan additional bonus tracks but a whole second album for the price of one, in ADDITION to all the songs on the first album. So instead of getting all 31 songs on the second album for $14.99. They are now stuck paying $12.99 for the first album and an additional $14.99 for the second. So $27.98 for 31 songs instead of $14.99. Now had she released these weeks apart I would not care, but 2 hrs apart and pushing pre-sales when she knew she would force those who committed to the presale to buy both albums is a smart business move but also greedy and rude to fans.

What bothers me about Taylor is that she is a 34 year old woman acting like she’s a doe eyed 19 year old.

So don’t listen to her and don’t engage in threads about her.

Typical swiftie; anyone who doesn’t think Taylor swift is god isn’t to have an opinion

No, I'm just not dumb enough to click on threads that don't interest me with the goal of crapping on the topic.

So do you never read bad reviews, anything negative about anything? It's pretty normal for artists to get a variety of opinions about what they produce. It doesn't mean you can't like what you like.

I really hope she changes up the tour setlist to include a TTPD Era. I will see her in October and want to see these live, not just as surprise songs.

So many weird lines

I think the album is good, but out of 31 songs there are going to be better than others. I thought that was a weird line also.

BTW it's "All my friends smell like weed OR little babies"

Do still not understand this line?

What's there to understand? All her friends are either still partying or growing up and having kids? Not exactly a deep metaphor. It's still a weird line.

All the people that bought the original album got the extra songs in the middle of the night without purchasing anything that’s why they were freaking out at 2 AM.

Why is that weird when almost everybody deals with two groups of friends one still partying and one that has settled down and is having kids?

The whole song is about a compilation of stories. She saw watching dateline.

It’s not about her.

She’s one of the best lyricists but everything is starting to sound the same. I wish she would take a break from Jack.

I preordered in iTunes and only received the first album/16 songs. If I want the other songs I need to purchase the second album.
