Taylor Swift Reputation - Tumblr Posts

I love this because it makes me think abt how every single album of Taylors comes from the depths of her. She simply can't do it any other way. Because she needs it like a normal person needs a therapist and bc she can't be anybody else besides herself.

Funny enough, the only 2 Taylor albums I feel come out a bit insincere are my 2 least favorites. Reputation because she tried to give off a revenge, payback vibe or of someone extremelly revolted and ready to fight the hate campaign against her.. when in actuality she didn't want to do that. She wasn't that vengeful, really. She was sad with everything, yes. She felt betrayed and deceived. And make no mistake, that period of time was traumatic and probably changed her forever (as trauma usually does).

But she was in love. She didn't quite feel like being revengeful at that time anymore. She didn't want to prove anything to anyone, she just wanted to love (who seemed to be at the time) the love of her life. She felt safe and loved with him, away from all the noise, and she just wanted to express that (is what I feel, at least). And so as a result the album ended up sounding a little bit.. forced.

And then there's Lover. Ironically, I feel like she felt that it was finally the time for her to express all the love she was feeling, how wonderful her relationship was and how happy she was... but maybe things weren't quite perfect as they were, or seemed to be? She went ahead and did it anyway, but it just feels too much.. honeyed? Sugary? I don't know just too lovely, like someone who just fell in love and is still mesmerized by it, blinded to all its problems and potential red flags. But she wasn't.

She wasn't that someone anymore, they'd been together for a minute and probably they had that settled, quiet love by then. And thoughout the album there's a bunch of little, almost inconspicuous yellow flags on the relationship and how she was truly feeling. It makes me anxious, before ttpd it annoyed be a lot and I couldn't quite point out why (and I'm not only talking about lyrics but the production too) and now I think I do.

I guess I didn't want to deal with the possibility that maybe Tay wasn't that happy and so I tried to deny my impressions and now I don't have to anymore... anyways!! Eternal swiftie rambling bc I can do it here!!! Congrats if you read the whole thing lol

“The best bodies of work are when people drill into the most personal, the most if-you-know-you-know kind of stuff. I think the depth of [Tortured Poets Department] was surprising to people because I think people are constantly surprised when artists continue to be artists. You see so many people take the wrong turn and pander and become terrified of what they could lose. That’s the recipe for all the worst music, and I can only relate to people who don’t give a f–k. That next body of work — it doesn’t matter how big your audience is, it either comes from the depths of you or it doesn’t. And I love that album so much because the whole thing is so remarkably vulnerable.”
