I think at this point Taylor can take pretty big risks and still sell well. She's not sending her fans gifts and acquiring their undying love for nothing! Even if she sells badly for her, it'll prob still sell better than like 99.9% of artists ha
I wanna see Taylor take a risk so bad. I don't even know what a risk would look like for her. I mean the last risky thing I remember her doing was wearing black lipstick at the Met Gala and that's like, a Tuesday for most pop artists.
I'm trying to think what her riskiest single is , it might the EDM elements in I Knew You Were Trouble haha
Where does everyone listen from in her discography? The only record I've been able to enjoy by her is 1989, which I love
i think it's gonna be a concept album about her journey to become renowned snake charmer and all the emotional turmoil that goes along with that. like what happens when you don't hit the right melodic marks and the snake hisses a little girl to tears. or that time her first snake charles was charmed all the way to snake heaven and she started having suicidal thoughts about being symbolically strangled by a boa constrictor. lots of directions it could go in
This is the order of my love for her discography: Red > 1989 > Fearless >>> Speak Now >>>>>> Self Titled
I thought Shake It Off was a risk for the time. Country-soft songs to full on Pop with a rappy bridge.
Hmm.... "The single is very different. It goes from very soft, to hard, to soft again," a source exclusively tells Us Weekly. "Taylor is overhauling her image." And while the track follows in the footsteps of 1989's pop vibe, "it doesn't sound like anything she's done before," a second insider tells Us. "It's a little unusual. She plays around with new sounds each album cycle, but this one in particular stands out."
Eh she tried to sell 1989 as a risk but I'll never buy it. She was already making some full pop songs at that point and people were whining about her being nominated for country awards still. I feel like she'd dabbled over so much she kinda had to embrace it. She had like 2/3 of her body in the door already so she didn't have much to lose. Maybe if the songs would have been risky but I don't think they were. Hoping she'll explore more next era
