    That Bury Your Dead album was on constant rotation in 2005, I can’t wait. I was at their reunion at the palladium and I had shoe prints on my shoulders

    The interesting thing about her meteoric rise over the pandemic is that a lot of artists during that time were delaying albums and tentative about how to approach it. I remember thinking that was a wild choice, because it seemed so obvious that people needed things to comfort them and that the music released during 2020, especially, was going to be something a lot of people bonded with in a really unique way. Taylor read the moment and delivered not one but two albums that people tag with the “got me through COVID” thing, and it earned her so, so much good will. It really wasn’t just those two albums, though. It was also going into battle against Scooter Braun and her old label. The TV albums have maybe gotten a little annoying as more of them have come out, but the first two were really novel and smart narrative work, and positioned her (somehow) as an underdog again. The Red re-release is actually probably the moment that she re-claimed the crown — in part because Red just has a special place in her catalog, in part because the vault ruled, and in part because it was fun to just make memes of the Jake Gyllenhaal drama for a few days and pretend like it was 2012 again. “All Too Well 10,” despite my distaste for it, didn’t hurt. (It also probably didn’t hurt that the artist who had always outsold Taylor, Adele, dropped an album around the same time that mostly whiffed.) All of that primed the engine for the Eras Tour, which is obviously when the “Is this the biggest any artist has ever been?” conversation starts. All to say, a lot of artists did not navigate the pandemic years well, but Taylor used them to reclaim all the ground she’d lost and then some. You can say that she wouldn’t be as big if she’d gone Lover-Midnights-this, but I don’t think she’d be as big had it not been for COVID, regardless of what order the albums had gone in.

    Have I not brought this up before?! Haha, yeah, Billy Walsh is my cousin on my mom’s side. His dad, also Billy Walsh, is a folk-rock singer/songwriter who had a decent regional following in Boston back in the 1990s/2000s, and used to bring his guitar to family reunions and lead these big family singalongs. Their family is definitely a big part of the reason I fell in love with music in the first place. Anyway, this is him: https://www.umusicpub.com/us/Artists/B/Billy-Walsh.aspx https://www.nytimes.com/2023/01/27/style/billy-walsh-sneakers-songwriting-rihanna-post-malone.html

    My cousin is tight with him and co-wrote a bunch of the big hits (“Better Now,” “Sunflower,” “Circles”) so I’ve always been interested in him and respected the craft of his songs for that reason. But beyond the family connection, he’s typically filed under “good at what he does, but not really for me.” Maybe it’s time to check back in.

    Taylor Swift helping to manifest a new album out of a band that was by all means dead and buried a few years ago is canon now. The woman is a fucking wizard.

    I just really miss when her albums had energy to them tbh. It’s like she found this muted approach in folklore and evermore (which are great!) but now it just kind of runs through everything she’s done since in a way that makes me feel tired and bored

    I just feel like a bit unsure where Taylor has gone to musically. A good core of what she was so damn good at was these massive melodies attached to storytelling. Or the Max Martin and first Jack era with big pop hits and now it feels like 80% of her new songs are just sort of talked through narratives with the same soundscapes. State of Grace Delicate Wildest Dreams Style All Too Well Love Story Cruel Summer Enchanted Dear John Treacherous I just feel like none of these 31 songs stand out as anywhere approaching any of those. Feels like quantity over quality.

    Has anyone else read the prologue from the liner notes? The only pic I've found is blurry, but here's the text. Certainly puts the album in a very different perspective and explains why there's a good chunk of Matty songs here. Kinda wish I'd read this before I heard the album, but I appreciate getting to listen again after reading this:
