She wore the yellow folklore dress for me because I asked her to when she debuted it. Also getting to hear Mirrorball was the greatest thing to happen to me. I love Taylor Swift. I miss her already 💔🥹
#TTPD in a stadium is actually insane#I’m so glad I never watched videos and went in with fresh ears#Cause holy shit#Also Florence and Florida!!!#God I love Taylor Seift

so long london is such a vile song?? how shitty do you have to be to villainize a man you're supposed to be in love with because he has depression and then blast him for the whole world to hear because you're "pissed" he had "the blues"??? shut the fuck up oh my god
#sonically the album is terrible as well - couldn't name a memorable beat or melody if i tried and it all sounds the same#the only song that sticks out is florida and guess why? exactly. florence welch actually does the heavy lifting re: groove and voice.#also guilty as sin is horrible! in general i hate how she romanticizes cheating but here there isnt even the excuse of it being a good song#anti taylor swift#music#me

taylor and florence’s energy on stage together has just been so kind, ethereal, feminine and powerful, it’s so beautiful to see women just having fun performing together and appreciating eachother
#taylor swift#the eras tour#florida!!!#also unhinged but in a good way#so sad I didn’t see this live#eras tour miami#florence and the machine#florence welch#the tortured poets department

It would be kind of funny if the swifties that barely know anything about Florence would go into florida!!! Expecting sad girl june-morning elvis-falling-long and lost mitski Phoebe bridgers esq softie Florence bc shes indie only to receive seven devils-daffodil-rabbit heart-wich witch Florence who is a dark fae queen that eats men and commits a lot of arson
#florence + the machine#taylor swift#florida!!!#dont get me wrong i love that type of music#and Florence definitely has some of that sad girl indie thing going on#but its not how i would describe her as an artist#also Taylor could never handle the power of dark fae Florence#like no hate to her but that style of Florence songs is way to magnificent and witchy to work well with Taylors softer fun style

i know we all already did trying to cut down ttpd to a listenable playlist but . alternate universe where ttpd was called prophecy
#additional benefit that this is somehow exactly 55 minutes and 5 seconds . track 5 ass album .#realistically the prophecy Would be track 5 on this but i am attached to it being the end track#bonus tracks would be guilty as sin and the manuscript btw#florida in this universe is a one-off single she puts out with florence with no warning or explanation it also comes with#three awful unlistenable remixes on the same release#also in this universe so long london + loml included in the original midnights .#dkfaljdfjl thinking abt a world where she dropped those two with youre losing me as like a b-sides midnights EP event#this ends with swifties swarming joe alwyn's door with flamethrowers#anyway closets like cedar implications of peter track 5 means i like it actually#also in a universe that cuts tortured poets the song this creates a world where the only namedrops on the album are fake names#(aimee. peter. the mythical chloe et al). and also semi mythical celebrities. and also taylor swift#ts#anyway this track listing is about trying to break the cycle of doom and u end still unsure if u can. time loop album#so high school a bright spot but more begging against the dark.#and so high school about going back in time to redo it . only you cant. can it be high school again. can we redo the prophecy.#midnights original run ends with no one wanted to play with me as a little kid . and then we are here.#also like there are weaker songs in this run but critically i think thank you aimee is Fun to listen to and she always has to have at least#One song that is embarrassing . also the k*rlie implications of your kid comes home singing a song only we know is about us#also i think it's like. this rare hopeful moment in the whole album track#but also it's hope built on pain . and also the liner notes style brings in early discog#+ subject matter brings in like rep and folkmore. and anyway high school metaphor critical for timeloop#lead singles in this universe are down bad. my boy . fortnight. so high school

between the “a “Cabaret” play” tweet and the “Spotted Florence Welch (of Taylor Swift's "Florida" fame lol) in the back row at her Gatsby musical in Boston/Cambridge. She was super gorgeous irl, v boho chic, and carrying an ENORMOUS notebook but I guess musicals don't write themselves haha” posts… what do you Mean… we have lost the plot.
#post: personal#sorry i’m a theatre snob but also#WHAT DO YOU MEAN FLORENCE OF FLORIDA FAME ??????!!#also of course florence is there AT HER JOB!#likely place for her to be!

taylor swift doing a collab with florence is good actually because now swifties might go listen to her and discover real music
#taylor swift#florence + the machine#florence welch#music#sofi.txt#text#this is a joke but also i mean it#i'm currently listening to dance fever and. damn. it gets me every time#florida is the only song on ttpd i like and it's because florence is in it I'm not even kidding#you can hear the difference between their parts and their lyrics so clearly 😭#i'm not a hater but taylor's music is deeply uninteresting to me and i just don't get the hype#there's nothing exciting about her lyrics and productions. it's just pop. boring at times. good background noise but won't make me dance#she was better at the beginning. i knew you were trouble. we are never ever getting back together. now those were bangers

THEY SOUND THE SAME THYE ALL SOUND THE FUCKING SAME SHE COULD SING THE LYRICS OF A SONG AND PUT IT ON THE MUSIC OF A DIFFERENT SONG AND IT'D SOUND THE SAME
I KNOWWW. I'M HERE LISTENING TO IT
#CLINGING onto florida with my bloody fingernails thank you song with a moderately different drumbeat and also florence#I see swifties in the trenches on tiktok day in and day out trying to defend her from the “every song sounds the same” allegations#and every album taylor works harder at making sure her fans died for nothing#ask#brokenbackmountain#hi hana!

#had to listen to ttpd out of plain curiosity because everyone was saying how much it didn't deliver and well they weren't lying#they weren't lying about the lana comparisons either! who's afraid of little old me sounds like born to die in the verses#it's very flat tbh like you're listening to the same songs over and over#it's very hollow like the album was just made just to be made in order to keep her name afloat and relevant#not because she had something to actually say and express. her song delivery is very flat and unemotional idek how to properly express what#i mean. like she sings with no actual emotion behind the words no nerve no nothing. like she can't actually convince me that she's feeling#all that she's singing. also like the music is all the same and the way she sings them. there's no fluctuations no diversity. it's the same#song over and over. also sometimes i feel like the lyrics and the delivery don't really go together with the music#like they don't compliment each other#But Daddy I Love Him is supposedly over her fans trying to dictate her life (i have all sorts of opinions on that but it's a diff convo) an#it had 0 nerve and anger in it. i needed a little more intense a little more angry. i liked down bad and Florida (thank god for Florence 😭)#and all the breathy low vocals are not it either. it kind of makes the album flatter. there's no tension no passion in the album#definitely feels like she's trying to recreate 1989 and maybe folklore/evermore and it's not working#also people comparing this album to midnights are not wrong either#it feels like her last few releases all sound the same with no creativity or bringing something new and amazing#she really needs a break and to take a step back re-evaluate and try to create something more inspiring and fun instead of trying to#recreate the same sound over and over again. releasing album after album in such a short period of time is bound to hinder creativity and#the quality of someone's work. and maybe she does need new people to work with that will push her creatively#also i feel like she doesn't need to create such long albums. especially if you're using the same sound in every song. like one song morpths#into the other and it gets boring! especially if there's little to no build up and tension holding the song and having breathy vocals that#lead to nowhere during each song! anyway it could've been a whole lot better and she has better songs than this

i admit i actually like the one t*ylor song with florence on it. because it basically becomes a florence song
#my boyfriend: damn. t*ylor got cooked by florence on her own song#it’s also the only song on the album so far w interesting instrumentals lmao. the lyrics are still corny but it’s whatever#florida!!!!!

ok im actually gonna post a ranking today at least of the standard edition i will start working on the second half today tho
#im finding it hard cuz the more i listen the more im like. yeah none of these really hit#listened to my faves off folkmore last night and had a lil cry bc of nostalgia and how good they are but also how its sad how none of the#new songs come close imo. again tho i havent listened to the second side enough to have a real.opinion so this is abt the first half#i have a very rough ranking like ik my bottom three but theres some where its like. theres one cool part. or i like the bottom half. and#within those its like. some are just mid and some have lyrics that bug me but the ones with bad lyrics sound better than the ones with mid#lyrics....and some of them are like. fine but feel self derivative to me and like just worse versions of folklore tracks#florida is esp hard for me like do i like it or not i really do not know but i think the florida duh duh duh duh duh duh duh is cool and i#like just how many times its repeated at the end. but the whole first verse is so boring and i find a lot of the lyrics in florences part#kinda cringe and cliche

ok its rant time!!!! about ttpd ofc so be prepared lol
i just finished it (and immediately started relistening) and oh. my. god.
i think 'peter,' 'the bolter,' 'down bad,' 'the albatross,' and sm more were my favourites!!!
but peter by far the most bc ADHJKAHSF. THE BRIDGE. IM UNWELL. 'forgive me, peter, please know that i tried to hold on to the days when you were mine, but the woman who sits by the window has turned out the light.' STOP THIS RIGHT NOW. WHAT. literally sobbing wtf. bc i cant go a moment without referencing percy jackson, this one rly reminded me of piper and jason's break up from piper's pov (just replace 'peter' with 'jason'!!!).
um. ok anyways :) now imma talk abt the bolter!!! so!!! (im unironically listening to it rn - ttpd is on shuffle and it just came on lmaoo). i dont have much to say abt this one; just that its good and idk i liked it lmao. but omg the 'but as she was leaving, it felt like breathing.' idk it just hit different and i loved it sm. THE BRIDGE TOO OMG<3 its so catchy i love it.
'down bad' is so incoherent screaming. i love love love that song aaaahhh!!!!!! the first verse was so good; 'did you really beam me up, in a cloud of sparkling dust, just to do experiments on?' and also 'for a moment, i knew cosmic love.' im unwell.
'the albatross' ok i'd also like to say, out of all the bonus track edition thingys, i liked the cover for the albatross edition the best!!!! it was just so ttpd to me idk. 'and when the sky rains fire on you, and you're persona non grata, i'll tell you how i've been there too.' ugh i loved the bridge for this one^ (side note - "persona non grata" means unwelcome person).
oh and also!!! 'chloe or sam or sophia or marcus' RIPPED MY HEART OUT. dont mind me just violently sobbing to 'so, if you wanna break my cold heart, say that you loved me just the way you were' like actually stop this i cannot. and omg 'could it be enough just to float in your orbit?' NO. sTOp. i cant anymore that entire verse was just gut wrenching.
i also liked so many others but i cant remember those rn so um. thats it for now!!!! overall i loved the album (or double album bc like WHAT??)
#somehow jason grace finds his way into every song i listen to#i just love him ok :(#anyways#back to taylor swift#i also liked 'florida!!!' and florence + the machine's verse was so good#as for what i was disappointed by - i can fix him (no really i can) - it just wasnt what i expected and yeah!!!#still good tho#taylor definitely delivered with this one#tho tbh i did like the second half of the album (the anthology) more than the first half im sorry😭#'guilty as sin?' is incredible too!!!#ok i'm gonna stop now lmao#i could go on forever#taylor swift#ttpd#the tortured poets department#down bad#the albatross#the bolter#peter by taylor swift#ts11#tortured poets department
