Taylor Swift - The Life of a Showgirl (October 3, 2025) • Page 8

Just please don’t have this release get sucked into the culture wars some way with Trump tweeting about her lately.

 

it will because he will do anything to avoid the epstein files and taylor is the only person who can dominate a news cycle more than him (and he hates that)

 

I hope this album has "The Even Smaller Man" and it's about him

 

I know it’s an extremely hot take but I prefer most of the Taylor’s Version cuts to the originals, minus the big hits (those do mostly sound “off” to me). I particularly find the re-recordings suited the, for lack of better term, “rockier” songs on Red extremely well, and also basically all of Fearless. I also just like where her voice is at way more now than back when those were originally recorded, and I know that there is a charm to her early vocals for folks but I don’t have any kind of attachment to those versions of the songs really. I get a lot of people have qualms with certain production choices but I generally enjoy the fuller, modern sound of the TV versions of Fearless, Red, and Speak Now in particular.

 

I like most of Fearless more but that's about it for me.

 

this would be the ULTIMATE troll and i would be so bummed

Red
reputation
folklore
1989
Midnights
Taylor Swift
Speak Now
Lover
The Tortured Poets Department

The bottom 3 functionally don’t exist to me more often than not. The top 5 are all very close, especially the top 3; I could be convinced to put evermore #1, and the best tracks on Red are maybe my favorites she’s down. And, Fearless is the only one where I definitively like the “TV” more (while the rest are definitively worse), hence the distinction.

 

(Almost forgot to include self-titled there, lol. Only other one that I want a “TV” for, even though she owns the masters now.)

 

Sorry, I was referring to evermore

 

Folklore
Speak Now
Evermore

taylor swift

half my favorite songs are bonus/deluxe/vault tracks lol

 

lol. My Swiftie friend is very concerned about the potential cringe of a song called "Cancelled!"

 

top of the store has an 'add all to cart' button. so ridiculous

 

TPD being so low for you guys is wild

 

I don't like it at all. I only go back to maybe 3 songs, and considering there was about 30+ released that's a horrible batting average. Don't go back to a lot on Midnights either.

 

Love that there’s still 5 Rep tracks in a row even though the playlist is alphabetical. She was really in her D-G era on that one.

 

evermore is top two for me tbh

 

Wait, is this really a thing?! I had no idea and immediately went for the preorder cause I like the color a lot. Not sure if I have any other glitter variants, but if this is something I should look out for, it's nice to know.

 

Yeah I would say so. I had a metallic gold/silver set at one point that sounded noticeably worse than black. Seems the more you add to the mix the worse it sounds. #clearvinylsupremacy

 

*clears throat* “Our Song” is her most important song.

Tim McGraw shows how she could paint a picture in short structure. And then I’d say Should’ve Said No and Picture to Burn would appeal to someone that’s a poster on this site.
