Post Re: #Reputation / My My My My Lover / Folkbore
I honestly never cared much for Taylor Swift. Some of her music is catchy but I found her more obnoxious than anything. I've always been up to date with her though, as my boyfriend is a huge, huge fan. I will saw that I enjoyed her Netflix documentary and that's when I started noticing her a bit outside of her regular music.

I have never listened to Taylor Swift voluntarily.

Ever.

I cannot tell you the amount of times I've listened to folklore. I think the entire album is incredible. I can't wait until the fall when I can be sitting outside in the brisk fall air next to a fire listening to this album. When we are all old, we will still be talking about how Taylor Swift released a random album in the middle of a pandemic and healed us. It's that good.

Anyone saying it's "boring" knows nothing about music. If this is boring, how can you enjoy he actual boring music? lol

I'm not 100% sure what that means, but I am 100% confident the only proper reply is "you wish."

Folklore definitely gets better on multiple hearings but then again it's true for 80% of the albums.

The folklore Disney+ special was sublime. Made me love the album more than I already did.

Gold Rush too. So far it sounds more like the slow songs on Lover than folklore.

On my second listen right now. Still feels surreal it's really another album I can't lol

Don't know what stands out yet but from first listen really liked gold rush, no body no crime and evermore

Not only a new album, but another new sound that is a natural evolution from folklore. Reminds me more of a Death Cab for Cutie album or something like that. On Ivy now and it’s great, but honestly they have all been great.

Ya idk if I'd say it's better than folklore now but it's an easier listen all the way through? God she delivered AGAIN.

Folklore was so jarring the first time. It’s definitely grown on me, but there are still a few songs I skip. I don’t think anything on Evermore is skippable.

Folklore and Evermore are both lyrically dense albums. They’re not albums you can fully enjoy just having them in the background. You have to sit and intentionally listen.

Added together this is basically the double album where she probably should just have taken the 10 best songs, but it's cool. I think Ivy is best on evermore.

I love listening to this on shuffle. It’s like playing the lottery and winning every time.

Some songs like Coney Island just randomly clicked after a few weeks. Maybe that will happen to the title track at some point.

I love Right Where You Left Me and would put it in the top half of my rankings. Its Time To Go easily fits into the last slot, but its still not a terrible song.

Finally listened to Longpond and agree. I actually like it more than the original version, improves most of the songs I felt meh about the first time around.
