Taylor Swift - Reputation (November 10, 2017) Album • Page 24

im sure swift fans love the video. i just wish she would stop working with joesph khan. he's such an asshole

 

the drums sound like a stock 909 or 707 drum machine plug in/sample not an actual 909 or 707, it just sounds really cheesy and canned.


i mean ill give you the song sounds unique compared to other pop but again i refuse to make the leap that that automatically makes it good.

but so many people are talking about it because taylor swift is the biggest pop star on the planet. people were going to be talking about it no matter what she put out. thats not really a way to measure anything other than her popularity, which we already know is huge.

 

He was so petty with his appropriation tweets

 

you must be a sound engineer or have a better in depth knowledge about this stuff than i do, cause I can't hear these type of things. (this isn't a snarky response; this is a self depricating response of my lack of sound producing).

Like i can't hear that the drum machine sounds stock. I like the cheesiness of the chorus' drum machine. Hearing that "Right Said Fred" worked on this was the biggest "that makes sense" ive ever heard.

And "good" and "pop"...it's a different type of good, but i guess it's all subjective. We can't all be Animal Collective all the time.

 

i actually am hah

thats fair i totally get why people like cheesy stuff sometimes. for me it doesnt work.


animal collective has a lot of great pop stuff though

 

As was the case with "Bad Blood", good videos don't help make a bad song good. I know "Bad Blood" ended up being a huge hit, but I still can't get behind it to this day. Same case with this song. That being said, good on her for generating this much hype. Her marketing team are a bunch of geniuses and i do still have high hopes for the rest of the album.

 

this is the second best song with a lyric about making a list and checking it twice in it.

 

gotta be honest this doesnt even come close to touching the best pop song this year, "new rules"

 

To be fair, Santa Clause is Coming to Town is only like the fourth best song with a lyric about watching you while you sleep.

 

be the one & blow your mind > new rules

 

those both came out last year

 

I don't think anyone is saying it is haha, obviously Selena Gomez and Lorde have had better songs

 

what is new rules?

 

someone literally just said everything on the radio sounds the same

 

We should add a space after the comma in the thread title. It's bothering me more than it should haha.

 

eh? Unless you were being sarcastic, this is the kind of pop i do not like.

 

im not being sarcastic but alright lol

 

Not a fan of that New Rules song.

 

if you dont like that perfect song im starting to see why you like this terrible tswift song

 

Look what you just made me do

 

Dua Lipa is a gift to this world

 

Just not sure what is to be accomplished for T Swizzle's reputation in releasing a song like this. She has all the songwriting ability and cute marketability to be a star on her own terms, why do her terms have include constantly whining about it all?

 

ouch talk about a catty comment haha. See this the type of pop song i was complaining about. Maybe down the road after hearing it over and over again i might grow to like it, but this is not a song that would make me stop the radio or make me dig deeper into who the artist is or whatever.

it sounds very similar to what a lot of the radio has now. That 'caribbean drum'/xylophone sound and sax is everywhere. This song does not stand out at all to me.
