I’m late to the party but a huge Taylor Swift fan here!
Cruel Summer should 100% have been the lead single from Lover, it’s just one of those songs that has you singing - even now in the car I have it on repeat. If you don’t scream ‘he looks up grinning like a devil’ are you even a real fan?!
When Lover was released I was going through a breakup so all of the songs were so melodramatic to me, Afterglow, Lover and The Archer are the three even to this day I don’t really listen to because of it even though they’re beautiful songs.
Me-ee-ee! was a brilliant song, definitely a great lead into the album, YNTCD also good, but nowhere near the levels of Cruel Summer.
1989 always has and will be my favourite album - some of the tracks on there are very basic but they tell a story. You Are In Love is one of the most beautiful songs I’ve ever heard.
I’m with everyone else on Reputation, it promised so much and there were only a few songs I could really say I like such as So It Goes, Getaway Car and Dress. Everything else I wasn’t too bothered about. I always wondered too in the reputation world tour why she sings every song except So It Goes?
