| Let’s be real. Most people in this thread don’t give a shit about Taylor whether they claim to be on her side or not. They’re just bored and looking for conversation. Taylor is a hot topic so you can pick a side and join the party. You can even pick both sides and argue with yourself. |
OMG yes. It doesn't have to be MH - but it has to be someone interesting s0 the songs she writes about their life together are interesting. |
I think Taylor is talented enough to make her songs interesting even if the person she's writing about is not. I also tend to think a relationship with a dumb jock (and yes I do think Travis is a dumb jock, sorry defenders) would be interesting in a more novel way than a relationship with a tortured artist with a drug problem. Sorry but that's been done to death, it's tired. There something weirdly counterintuitive about her relationship with Travis and I could see that being more creatively generative. |
Have you seen lyrics leaks for her song "wood" on the new album? It's not looking great for Travis the muse! ("Alchemy" was a good song but it was about mh then underwent some lyric changes. Some say the same for "so hs." I don't know if I believe that but I don't think it's a good song so . . .) |
adding alchemy was a so so song. But gulity as sin and loml and fortnight and even, to a lesser degree, ttps and my boy breaks his favorite toys are masterpieces. Once you add maroon and the 1 and question and snow on the beach . . . No way life with dumb jock will produce anything like that. Wood and so high school, ugh. |
| I heard they broke up |
ok |
Based on what? Playing a guitar? Illiterate people can play instruments. Her songwriting prowess is beyond inflated and phony. What was her ACT or SAT score? I assure you if it was sky high it’s something she’d faux coy brag about to boost her wannabe intelligentsia bonafides. She’s an airhead entertainer. She’s one of those millennial tumblr girls who posted tons of pictures and gifs of books and coffee … books she never read. |
| Smart women don’t marry dumb football players. Football players marry dumb influencers and dumb female jocks. |
fingers crossed behind my back they'll break up quick |
This isn't any kind of rule. A lot of famous songs are written about complete unknowns. It just has to be relatable. |
| The new album is going to flop. Nobody is buying she's madly in love with this embarrassing buffoon. |
I don't think it will flop. It will come off as a try hard pop banger album that doesn't quite land and she'll be under TREMENDOUS pressure for her next album to be a critical or cultural success because this one will be neither despite making money. In some ways the was true of TTPD too, except that album will eventually become known as one of her best, greatly underappreciated etc ect. Just will take time. This one I have little hope for based on lyrics. But who knows. Maybe the kids will like it and rally behind it. Us old people for sure won't. |
+1. Plus his very public issues with alcohol. |
You sound charming! Why is it that the posters who hate Taylor Swift all sound like this - bitter, angry, and confused? |
