SO.. I listened to it without the cheesy music video and it wasn't as bad. Haha.
Her performances are always pretty magical. I think that her album will be way better than this song.I really liked her performance at the BBMAs last night but I still hate the song lol
I thought the "live" vocals were alright for her, I find her voice way too overproduced these days. The same can't be said for Brendon - his vocals were a huge step down as they're amazing on the studio version imo. I feel like I've outgrown her, even though she's around the same age.I wasn’t wowed by her vocals. They came across as pretty weak.
This! . It feels like she’s trying to cater for the same demographic she was when she started out. We’ve grown, she hasn’t.I feel like I've outgrown her, even though she's the same age.
Totally agree. She needs to take risks and develop herself, not just care about the charts. She was on that cover talking about "taking control", even though she already has control of just about everything, then follows it up with this.I think she needs to stop thinking, plotting and planning to get number 1’s and just be true to who she is as an artist.
1989 is a masterpiece and still sounds fresh. She will never match it. Reputation is her worst album. Many of the songs sounded like fillers. She def believes her hype and is a v savvy business woman. I saw her on the rep tour and hated all the "you're my best friends" talk. I feel like she is too old for it, and I felt I was too old for it. It seemed disingenuous. I do think she's a nice person though. She also invites fans to her houses for album listening which is cool but encourages their obsessive behaviour.The song has started to grown on me! I found myself humming “girl there ain’t no I in team” today haha. As lead singles go, nothing could be worse than look what you made me do so maybe I’m just relieved it’s better than that
Taylor was who i turned to during my teenage years. I went right off her when repuation came out. Some of the songs were catchy but I felt she was really stretching to prove a point and it all felt a bit forced.
I’m excited for this album but I do agree that she believes her own hype: putting hints and “Easter eggs” in the video for ME! and building up this album so much... it seems a bit... obnoxious
Speak Now & 1989 are my favourite TS albums. I loved Red but felt it wasn’t as sonically cohesive as the other two. Reputation is my least favourite. I wonder where Ts7 will place
I'm not even sure if she cares much about music thesedays. She's just released the 8th (iirc) version of me, just a signed copy to exploit the fanbase more and get the #1. All these extra versions are just lazily put together ploys, I doubt many of her fans even have a record player to play the two different vinyl copies.She def believes her hype and is a v savvy business woman.

I think her fan base can be excused because they are young girls who have nothing better to do than watch YouTube videos over and over. I was one of those girls back in the Fearless days (albeit less obsessed as it was kinda before social media really kicked off). At least Taylor has talent, Mrs Hinch’s fans are grown women who follow someone who cleans her houseI'm not even sure if she cares much about music thesedays.

Her fanbase make Mrs Hinch's look normal, all this talk of "we need to get to number one". Just like infuencers she isn't their friend just wants to get #1, sell them a $65 hoddie and be rich. Now the stans are going crazy gifting people copies of me as she is sending out personal video messages to a handful.
She's first and foremost about the buisness, seems to spend most of her time thinking about ploys to sell more even though the song is garbage. It's in someway admirable the lengths she goes to with her ruthless tatics, but I won't be giving her any money apart from a couple of coppers for the streams of old albums.
Not gonna lie... I got a signed copy of the cd. I have never bought merch but she got me there. You get a certificate of authenticity. And it was only $5.

Ha lots have done this. It's a smart move to sell a load more but I'm still hoping she misses number 1 before a huge fall after all these schemes. I notice all her official accounts delete the latest ploy, they'll say that's to not disappoint fans that couldn't get it but to me looks like trying to hide the desperation.Not gonna lie...

Are they still that young though? I'm not sure how well she's recruited younger people into her fanbase, the red era people must be mostly adults by now.I think her fan base can be excused because they are young girls who have nothing better to do than watch YouTube videos over and over.
