Taylor Swift - folklore (July 24, 2020) Album • Page 11

its def weird that one of her cited musical heroes is a person with zero music credits anywhere. could be a pen name? but prob just someone close to her

 

wearing some new merch

 

thats a wild stat. I’m guessing her ticket sales did nothing but increase.

and yeah I think quantitatively the 1989 and Reputation singles are the ones everyone knows without a doubt.

Idk Lover is an earworm album to me. I can think of like 6 tracks that should be singles all over everywhere but aren’t. Not really sure what went on with this album commercially but a lot of it gets stuck in my head.

 

I’ve never listened to a full album of hers, just some singles. Where should I start?

 

Lover had legit BAD single choices. I still hear Lover on the radio from time to time but the other 2 had no staying power.

 

sounds like she met Joe at a Kings of Leon concert at the Bowery Ballroom in NY

 

Red

 

I thought she met him at the MET Gala

 

Reputation did as well. Other than "Delicate" which I was so happy to see that it did fairly well.

 

I dunno! Just saw this on the internet ha

 

I guess she didn't meet him at the dive bar on the east side

 

maybe she'll just forever drop different places they "met" to mess with her fans

 

1989

 

I feel like it'd be weird if "William Bowery" was actually a well known musician because you'd think that having their name attached to it would spark a lot of curiosity and boost sales a bit, maybe. So I wouldn't be too shocked if it was Joe or someone else close to her who maybe isn't a popular songwriter/musician.

 

Didn't she attend the Mat Gala with Loki even though she knew they "were cursed"

and became friendly/flirty with Masham during the event and afterwards before really breaking it off with Loki

 

It's actually KanYe

 

I mean I need a Taylor Swift and Bon Iver tour next year. Is Taylor Swift gonna headline Eau Claire?

 

Should we rank the covers????

1. Running Like Water
2. Hide and Seek
3. In the Trees
4. In the Weeds
5. Betty's Garden
6. Stolen Lullabies
7. Meet Me Behind the Mall
8. Clandestine Meetings

 

Red seems like the most common favorite, & is my personal favorite, & is probably the best center of what I think of as the Taylor Swift sound overall.

I could see 1989 being a better starting point for people with certain pop music preferences, but overall, I’d probably say do Red first.

 

Swifties would eat him alive lol

 

this record will be tagged with the explicit sticker on Apple Music

 

What singles have you liked the most?

Tim makes some good points here:

Personally I'd say Fearless. You get to see her growth without too much "cringe"

 

confirmed KanYe is Billy B

 

Too bad running like water has the grey vinyl instead of either blue variant. I ended up going with in the trees because it seems like the most "official" version and the brown is nice enough.

 

I got the Running Vinyl because I like the cover that much and I got my wife the Trees CD because I've gotten her every other TSwift CD for her car.
