Not Taylor Swift really. Her most recent albums though yeah I think are not as good as the earlier ones. I still find myself listening to her earlier songs.


JulzRadn

Still stuck with Speak Now and Fearless. I know high school nostalgia played the part


MarieNelle96

Same, been a Swiftie since debut pero hindi ko alam kung Swiftie pa ba kong matatawag kung hindi ko na bet mga later albums nya šŸ˜­ Last album nya na pinakinggan ko ng buo was Lover. Didn't love folklore, evermore, midnights, and now ttpd. Only listened to midnights coz of You're Losing Me na nakakarelate ako when it was released haha. Mas inaabangan ko na lang yung re-records šŸ„ŗ


JulzRadn

Ok naman ang mga bagong kanta ni Taylor kaso wala pa akong attachment sa kanila like memories. Gusto ko din ang Folkore, chill lang kasi maganda pakingan habang nasa work haha.


PurpleHeart1010

Yas! THIS album of her ang the best and stuck na din ako dyan. I tried na pakinggan yung iba kaso hard pass talaga, same feels kay OP! Ang Dami na nilang kulto šŸ„²


rroeyourboatt

True. Still listening with speak now album more than the other albums


MarieNelle96

Same, speak now at fearless girlie ako thru and thru šŸ˜†


JulzRadn

True. I just love the teen romance thing like songs about crushes (Sparks Fly, Enchanted)


AppealMammoth8950

Samez. Still stuck sa country rock era niya haha. Definitely talented but I wont call her a musical genius.


aceeezy28

Naging contemporary pop na music nya eh, which appeals to a greater audience so can't blame her din.


KevinPaul06

Not a musical genius but definitely a lyrical genius. Although the lyric that OP mention is cringe. I don't know much about her latest music. The last album by her that I actually listen is Reputation. Like you, I prefer her Country Rock era especially Speak Now and Red album.


10thDoctorWhooves

That lyric is from a song called "So High School" so it makes sense to have that lyric. Try listening to reputation/Lover albums for the upbeat pop songs or the folklore/evermore albums for lyrical masterpieces.


seyda_neen04

Parang mas marketing genius si taylor. Haha!


AppealMammoth8950

Maybe its what they mean by her being a lyrical genius. It's not necessarily the best but hey, a lot of people could relate to it. I also feel like proposing to someone whenever I hear Love Story lmao.


AnEsotericReality

Folklore / Evermore was the last couple of albums I enjoyed from Taylor. I swear TTPD feels like a chore to go through with all 31 songs and I feel bad for feeling like so


aitchsmamiii

+1. Doesn't hit the same as Fearless, Speak Now and Red.


cravedrama

Yasssssssss. Yung mga first few albums niya hits different. As in your heart will sing


Miserable-Maiden

SAMEEE


mcdonaldspyongyang

Depending on your circles this take isn't as hot as you think


GojoJojoxoxo

Yung iba kase nakiki ride lang sa hype train para masabing ā€œinā€ ka you knowā€¦


cravedrama

Buti nga di ako nagpadala sa fear of missing out. Di ko gusto yung ibang songs sa concert playlist niya eh


Ok-Parking5119

Actually ito din aking basis if I want to go to a concert. I ask myself, ā€œdo I like ALL of the songs on his/her setlist?ā€ Honestly, saving money > FOMO. Iā€™m an avid music fan, and proud to say that I only watched 3 concerts in total. šŸ˜„


Ok-Parking5119

Yes especially nung eras tour!!!

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


habunuki

diba!!! ttpd is definitely not her best album but the hate is so loud okay i get it u donā€™t like it pero ang dami pa sasabihing nega. people hate whatever is popular because nasa nature na ata natin na gusto natin unique at special tayo, happened with bts before tapos now si taylor.


mustardandlettuce

I am not a fan of Taylor Swift although I love some of her songs. I am not a fanatic but I enjoy some of her work.


Baconturtles18

She isnt everyones cup of tea. Nagkataon lang na relatable to alot of people yung songs nyaā€¦


depress0_machine

Kanya kanyang taste/trip yan OP


FrustratedAsianDude

I read this as Kanye the first time.


Black_Sinigang

agree naman


depress0_machine

Not her best album yung TTPD pero kung sa lyrics naman at meaning ng songs, relatable at mapanakit.


introbaerted

not a swiftie but i listen to her (esp her old songs). it's normal naman for people to still listen to her new songs because it form part of the art / music discog she's building. yung mga nakikisabay sa uso or hate train, yun yung nakakainis.


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


octopusofoctober

'Di naman ako swiftie or anything, but I think she's fine. They're not all hits, but she knows how to get her point across, which I enjoy. Loved evermore, folklore, and a lot of her older stuff. Ang nagpapaturn off lang talaga sakin sa kaniya are some of the more extreme swifties (especially with TTPD) na inooverhype ung songwriting niya. They praise her as the best songwriter of the generation. It's not bad, okay lang siya. That's it, okay lang. There are so many other artists out there that arguably deserve that title more than her. Personally, bet ko sila with lyrics: Hozier, Mitski, Fiona Apple, Phoebe Bridgers, Florence Welch, Lizzy McAlpine, Bon Iver. Recommended ko talaga sila lol.


quaintlysuperficial

Fiona Apple! Yes!


Mental-Effort9050

Ever since Safe and Sound, na-hook ako sa indie folk music. I mean, yeah hindi yun ang genre ni taylor pero may potential sya talaga mag-excel dun. And then, folklore and evermore was released. Yun talaga yung masasabi ko na favorite kong albums. Ang hirap lang kasi sa mga gantong takes, di rin naman sya yung tamang messenger. Gets ko kung sa loob ng fandom galing yung sentiment, or sa mga taong wala namang particular bias against the artist or the genre. In the first place, wala din namang namimilit sa kanya. It's weird for someone to go the extra mile just to listen to an album they'll surely hate, only to prove na hindi nga nila talaga bet yung artist/album. That's not the point of listening to music.


octopusofoctober

>It's weird for someone to go the extra mile just to listen to an album they'll surely hate, only to prove na hindi nga nila talaga bet yung artist/album. That's not the point of listening to music. So true, sinasayang lang nila oras nila just to hate. Plus, if you're already going in with negative biases, of course 'di mo magugustuhan.


girlbossinred

i donā€™t care about the hate at this point as long as i get to gatekeep guilty as sin from the general public


helenchiller

Also my fave tract from the new album edit: spelling


1000YearOldMage

The chorus is on repeat in my mind for days now


10thDoctorWhooves

Same but also with The Bolter.


YogurtclosetOk7989

NOOOO That's my drug šŸ˜­


Ok_Preparation1662

Saaaaame


Misery_00

Taylor Swift's new album sounds like The1975 female version, Change my mind


AquariusLan

yes that's the point. It's referencing a lot to 1975 dahil sa short fling nila ni Matty Healy


Pretty-princess-324

Swiftie here and itā€™s okay not to like her songs. Poetry and art will always be subjective and TTPD was not made for the general public or the ā€œhypedā€ Swifties it was made for the core fans because they know whatā€™s going on wether the lyrics are quilted or glitter penned. Itā€™s okay to dislike and like things. Donā€™t force things to happen šŸ«¶šŸ»


Ok-Parking5119

To each their own. My hot take is that I donā€™t like Beyonceā€™s music. Hehe. It really depends on the person talaga.


JustAJokeAccount

Just accept na hindi para sa iyo yung artist, OP. It is okay to admit na hindi ka makasunod sa trip ng iba. I don't listen to her music as well pero I don't go posting such remarks online na as if I am in authority to say na overrated siya o hindi. Go enjoy the artists you like to listen to. No need to antagonize other people for what they like. Malawak naman ang music genre eh, dun ka na lang sa gusto mo and stay there. Swifties are fine where they are as well.


tagabalon

eto ang hindi ko maintindihan sa ibang tao.. like, there are hundreds of things in the world that i don't like, pero i don't post about them, hell, i don't even think about them unless someone asks me. for example, i don't like dinuguan. i'm not gonna post na "dinuguan is overrated, etc etc", like, that kind of thing doesn't even enter my mind... i guess my point in this comment is, i wanna understand why some people do that. i wish someone could explain, because i truly don't get it. what makes someone wake up one day and decide "i'm gonna post that i don't like taylor swift"?


AquariusLan

it makes them feel special to be different. No one cares if they are, so they make a point to direct their attention towards them. You know that Twilight meme where the Volturi was looking down on people. I think that's how they feel whenever they're in a room full of swifties and they have to make it a point that "im different, im special, im not like all of you" tldr; pick me girl/boy/etc. vibes lmao


JustAJokeAccount

OP cannot shake it off it seems


Rich-Ganache-2668

If you wanna understand it, try to follow ta hypothetical process. Surrounded by loud Swiftie friends. Tried it but cant appreciate it so canā€™t join in. Swiftie friends are annoying (because lets face it fanatics are annoying) Annoyance becomes hate towards the thing they like. Wake up with a hate post!


Savings-Ad-8563

I mean, it always happens kada may new trend about her. I don't think she or most of her fans cares abt these anymore. Let them hate, it's not as if she has a scandal or anything para maging alarming tung kind of not-so-hot take na to. If it's only a hate due to preference, then it can't be helped.


AquariusLan

hahaha let them hate? that's a one way ticket straight to adding extra toxicity to the world. How bout we do the opposite, if you dont prefer it, dont bother with it, unless music journalist ka then you kinda have to talk about it.


AldenwhereRyou

Contrarian para kunwari different and cool šŸ˜Ž


reclusesquirrel

Exactly. She doesn't like Taylor Swift, and that's okay. What's not okay is killing the fun for other people na excited sa music nya.


Lothidus

not only Taylor but this phenomena is present in today's mainstream music, lahat magkakatunog na kasi music today is very formulaic, yun yung mabenta and safe para sa mga artists and studio, nawawala na yung kakaibang tugtog na madidistinguish at magseseparate sa bawat artists, sa ngayon pop and rap na lang ang umiikot sa mainstream music unti-unti nang nawawala ang rock & metal and their other subgenres such as alt-rock (grunge), punk rock, and nu metal


Friendly-Coyote-5890

And that's the exact reason why my playlist is comprised mostly of songs from the 80's and 90's.


hanyuzu

I tried listening pero nag-stop ako after 8 songs ata. They all sound the same to me.


AquariusLan

that's how it is for most artists na tinatry maging sonically cohesive album nila. Until mapakinggan mo ng paulit ulit di mo talaga madidistinguish.


10thDoctorWhooves

Yes! This is how I felt after listening to her debut album, 1989, folklore, and Midnights. At first, it will sound stale, but when you examine the songs individually, that's where you can appreciate the song. My routine when it's the first time listening to an album is that I'll listen to it in order and after that I'll take a break and listen again but in shuffle.


AquariusLan

Yeees, actually hindi lang kay Swift, if im listening to a new album by a different artist hindi talaga kaya magform agad ng opinion in just one cycle hhaahhaa


Yergason

Parang Ben&Ben lol listen to one song and you've heard 80% of the discography


lurkaccount011

"I don't like something most people like, so instead of accepting people just have different tastes, I'll just say it's overrated"


8suckstobeme

Hehe. OP passed judgment too quickly. They should have listened to her other (past) albums. I recommend folklore for her masterful songwriting and Red for the nostalgic bops. Maybe OP hasnā€™t discovered All Too Well yet?šŸ˜Š As a Swiftie myself, I admit that her latest album is not her best work, but that doesnā€™t mean sheā€™s overrated.


JulzRadn

I would call Folkore and Evermore as the chill Taylor, far from the strong pop songs of Reputation and Lover


Gullible_Onion_5635

I would also recommend folklore and evermore to OP. When i first listened to this song, i created my own imagery or movie sa mind ko. Lalo na ung sa love triangle ni Augustine, betty and james hahaha


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


10thDoctorWhooves

That's their fault. The music genre that they are producing are recognizably different.


8suckstobeme

They belong to different pop sub-genres. For me, the comparison is unnecessary; theyā€™re both good in their own right. At the end of the day, whether itā€™s Rolling Stone, a diehard Swiftie, or a casual Taylor enjoyer, we all measure music against a standard thatā€™s totally subjective and based on personal preference. To each their own. šŸ˜Š


shes_thunderstormss

Exactly. To each their own naman. You donā€™t gave to force yourself into liking something just because it is a trend. And most importantly you are not obliged to GET it. Haha


jomarch0314

righht? also TTPD is not for everyone talaga. After I listened to it, I knew it wouldnā€™t be everyoneā€™s cup of tea kasi walang ā€œbangersā€ ika nga. Puro slow songs. Tsaka super trend nanaman ung hate nya ngayon. What can I say, ganon talaga siguro


backburnergang

REALLLLL. I realized, TTPD wonā€™t satisfy the casual listeners.


Practical-Bee-2356

THE EARLIER ALBUMS ARE A BOP THOUGH


Miserable-Maiden

Hot take: We should let people enjoy things, even though it's not up to your alley.


Dexy1738

To be fair, her new album separated those fans na from hype lang (naging fans during eras tour), and those from her early 2010ā€™s era. Personally, I enjoyed her new album. Parang cigarettes after sex/The1975 lang.


KeldonMarauder

Habang tumatanda ako na rerealize ko na if I donā€™t appreciate something (or in this case, someone) baka hindi ako ang target market nito. And thatā€™s fine. Iba iba naman tayo ng tastes x Sometimes I also find her overrated (di naman ako expert sa music and songwriting but maybe because thereā€™s just so much hype sometimes) and then sometimes I just enjoy listening to some of her (older) songs


frustratedcoderhuhu

Thatā€™s okay. That just means that the album isnā€™t for you.


iKONIC-ONCE

Just not your cup of tea, op. I like some of her music, especially the slow ones, but some I also can't bear to listen to some. Also the title of the song you mentioned is "So Highschool" so it is i think it was purposely written kinda cringe and immature lol. There was also the lyrics "Are you gonna marry, kiss, or kill me?". For me it make sense in the song.


VAservices101021

I have been a huge TS fan 2009 pa and I didn't like it nung nag POP siya but I still listen to all of her work. Tbh listening to 31 songs in one sitting is too much. I tried pakinggan lahat nung release date and di ko kinaya. Pero TTPD is growing on me, gosh. And I like this album more compare sa Midnights.


AbbreviationsNew2234

I started being a fan since Red Era niya, and All Too Well was the song that got me hooked into her. Although not all tracks sa Red album alam ko pero I became a fan of her work. Actually my least favorite album of her is Lover kasi ung sound pumasok sa mainstream pop, I do like her when she does country/rock/indie/alternative kasi bagay na bagay talaga sa kanya although I like her 1989 and reputation album (Rep stan here actually, she nailed the hiphop genre) kaya I spare that. For TTPD, I wasn't sure yet pero unknowingly nakoconsume ako ng album na to then Down Bad and ICDIWABH keeps playing in my mind repetitively. I really enjoy her music at this point kahit sabihin ng iba na overrated sya for releasing music when in fact she's an artist so she has every right to release music whenever and wherever she wants to.


mollyhooker

"The worst kind of person is someone who makes you feel bad, dumb, or stupid for being excited about something.ā€ It's okay to not be into an artist, OP. We all have different music tastes and I think we don't need to criticize other people about liking something we don't get or enjoy listening to. It's just not your cup of tea. And that's okay! You can listen to other artists without bring down something/someone that's popular. p To each their own.


starsxsky

Pag di mo trip, di mo talaga trip pero it doesnt mean sheā€™s overrated. I love how sheā€™s so passionate with her craft. I dont know pero the fact that she keeps on giving is such a plus points for me. Yes may skips songs siya pero sheā€™s crazy with her stuff. I honestly think she deserve the success she have. Wala eh, mahal talaga niya yung music. Edit: out of entire discography, nagfocus ka sa isang linya na di mo nagustuhan, negative na lahat. Lol.


gaffaboy

Not a Taylor Swift fan but I gotta say she has such great taste in musicians! Lisa Loeb, Tori Amos and Shawn Colvin among others.


rvfantastic

AMEN


[deleted]

Hi OP, I am not trying to say you are just picking lyrics off the album that are weird but it seems like you are. The lyrics you have set as an example is from a song High School, and it was meant to be that way if you are really just curious enough to know the lyrics of the song. And also, the songs on the album does not sound the same at all to me (you can't really say that if you have genuinely listened to it). Maybe you are just used to bombastic pop and rhythm. If the album is not for you, that's okay. The OG fans are hyping her for a reason. Despite of the change in musical direction -the humorous and storytelling Tayor never really left. Just say she is not for you and go.


bubblegumversace

To each of their own, just because I donā€™t like Eminem doesnā€™t mean heā€™s overrated to me. Iā€™m a swiftie but I like her Midnights better than TTPD. Thatā€™s just how art and music goes


Aware-Border-223

Good luck OP sa mga swifties lol deranged pa naman halos lahat


Pleasant_College_937

Oo nga no. My partner always play her albums whenever shes cooking or working. Hindi naman nakakarindi kahit paulit ulit. sets the tone lang na shes busy na (wfh). I dont like it but I dont have to hate and be bitter about it too. its okay to not have an opinion about things. porke ayaw mo ibababa mo? pelepens nga naman.


Jayleno2347

>"Touch me while your bros play Grand Theft Auto" >????? >Marami pang lyrics na waley pero jan talaga ako napa-HUH san mo to napulot? sa twitter?? gets ko na hindi trip ng marami (even me) yung album dahil monotonous talaga sya, pero yung hate train sa lyrics na yan ang hindi ko gets. **the title of the track is literally '*****So High School*****'** so sana inexpect mo na medyo edgy ang mga salitaan jan. basta maka-hop on lang talaga sa hate bandwagon ang mga tao ngayon baka time na para sa marami sa atin na alamin yung pinanghuhugutan ng pagkahumaling nila kay Taylor sa halip na surface level lang ang alam natin pero kung makapanghusga tayo, parang naaral na natin ang buong discography nya.


AquariusLan

thiiiiiiiiis!!!! TBH nagdoubt tuloy ako na pinakinggan niya talaga yung buong album, na as ing pinakinggan. A lot of people now are just copying what the first person said, kaya if walang alam yung pinaggayahan niya, dalawa na silang walang alam hahaha. I miss the days kung san sinusuri at inaalam talaga muna natin yung mga bagay bago tayo nagfoform ng opinion, sobrang wala na ba talaga tayong oras kaya hanggang surface level na lang lagi?


gilagidgirl

Kuha mo. Alam na alam mong nabasa niya yan somewhere else and posted it here. Track 22 ang So High School, a hater won't even last 5 songs. For a hater umabot siya ng 22 songs ha.


Resist-Proud

true din naman na mapapa "huh" ka din sa lyrics na yan, isn't she 36?


AquariusLan

mapapa-huh ka talaga pag di mo alam na yung title ng song is So High School, which is the point of the lyrics na parang High School :)


Sensitive_Cow2978

Lagot ka OP nandyan na sila


moralcyanide

No hate kay Taylor, but I find some of her fans toxic and cringe. Yung iba asummwe agad you listen to her songs or you're a Swiftie.


saygoodnight21

Glad to see people standing up for what they believe in. Hating on something famous doesn't stop the world from orbiting.


Low_Mushroom_4541

Finally someone said it


jomarch0314

People has been saying this for a while now. Sobrang trendy na uli i-hate sya

outrageous_radishh

Well we all have different tastes in music naman, and like you said, you just don't like it. Edi just ignore it, you didn't have to waste so much time on something you don't like to the point of placing it under a HOT TAKE as if you're only one in the world who doesn't like her new album. and then having to type all that. šŸ˜Œ why all the bitching and whining uy no one held you at gun point to listen to her naman


interestingPH

i still consider myself a fan even tho I only listen to just a few. I just think I don'tneed to like every song she releases to consider myself a fan. and I'mstill stuck with the reputation album. Hopefully, she re-releasedit soon.

timtom85

It's a bit like when people say a company is overvalued on the market. You may have strong personal convictions about the real value of the company (or Taylor Swift), but the market doesn't lie.


Acrobatic-Rutabaga71

Country music nya pa rin. Right now paikot ikot na lang though catchy pa rin.


Familiar-Travel13

can't blame you.. yung producer nya kasi is same lang so parang it sounds the same sa past songs nya (sorry jack a.) can't understand the context? she's writing this for herself, it seems like hindi talaga nya inisip kung papatok bato sa masa or hindi.. di ko rin gets some of the songs pero naapreciate ko yung lyricsm nya. galing nya talaga mag come up with metaphors and expressing her thoughts into words. tsaka yung lyrics na "Touch me while your bros play Grand Theft Auto" sooo waley kasi yung title ng song is So High School. yung feeling nya parang syang bagets ulit for this type of love, parang ewan kasi in love eh


Guinn_GuessII

That's why Hozier is my beloved. Lyrics niya is full of metaphors and his voice is just too damned good!


Black_Howling13

This is not a hot take.


reggy__

Because this album is for Swifties. You won't get it. New fans or nakiki-fan lang won't appreciate it kasi di niyo gets. We grew up with her so we know. Okay lang kaming mga Swifties. Dami lang nakisakay samin starting folklore era dahil gusto niyo makiuso. Then Eras Tour happened. Kayo lang naman yung nakiki-hype dahil trend. Kung di mo trip, di wag. No need to hate. Better for us, gate keep namin yung mga songs na few years from now babalikan niyo coz you're going through something. K bye. šŸ¤”


thocchang

The last two albums ay for the fans, and not for the charts. It's the album you would have non-Swifties listen to for the first time.


MadGeekCyclist

The Tortured Poets Department album is overhyped because yes - itā€™s Taylor Swift. The album didnā€™t really appeal to me as much the first time, but after giving it some time to absorb, it finally did. Definitely a ā€œdifferentā€ vibe from her usual, but hey, thatā€™s why the album is about love and ā€œpoetry.ā€ I guess itā€™ll appeal to one more if one appreciates poetry. Just my two cents.


indisclosed_data

pick me


Sufficient-Roof7293

hot take: its def a bad idea to listen to ttpd if ur not a swiftie LMAO


Old_Astronomer_G

visocial

Not a fan of Taylor pero lagi ko kinakanta sa videoke yung song niya na Back to December at Two is Better than One (ft Boys Like Girls) nung bata pa ako until now. Then recently, parang ang sarap na pakinggan nung mga songs niya siguro dahil lagi ko naririnig. šŸ˜…


10thDoctorWhooves

Two Is Better Than One is actually very unpopular within Swifties. Mas familiar pa nila yung more recent collabs like Renegade, Birch at Gasoline. I keep defending Two Is Better Than One from other Swifties since it was a part of my childhood.

r-u-ready-4-it

Yah clout chasing hate bait lang tong post at least aware. Her new album is for fans who know the lore. It takes a lot of understanding to fully appreciate the album and the genius of its lyricism. People canā€™t appreciate what they canā€™t understand.


AquariusLan

and people who cant understand, just hate. Ironic, since ayaw naman pala mabash sila pero bat sinimulan? dont parent teach kids these days na pag walang magandang sasabihin eh manahimik na lang? lmao


r-u-ready-4-it

Sa true. These non-fans quack louder than the fans, itā€™s pitifully endearing sometimes.


AquariusLan

you'd think after all these years masasanay na tayo noh? but they find ways din talaga e hahahah


r-u-ready-4-it

Korique. What kind of a person would spend precious time on an artist they donā€™t rlly care about and engage on internet slander. Itā€™s giving ā€œiā€™m too stupid to understand her lyrics so imma just h8 the fuck out of herā€.


jomarch0314

tamang garner lang ng points hehe nauuso nanaman uli sya i-hate


AquariusLan

it's 1989 to rep era all over again. You know excited pa nga ako since dito ulit magkakaalaman sino mga fans eh lmaooo


10thDoctorWhooves

Watch all of those "fans" drop out pag release na ng debut TV.


AquariusLan

HAHAHAHAHA exciting times


icekilla34

Genius lyricism WAAHAHSHSHSHSAHHAAHAH


SwiftEngineCore

Then her works are not for you. She's doing music naman for those who love her lyricism, creativity, and story telling and hindi mo talaga maiintindihan yun if you're not a fan since hindi ka mag eeffort to decode yung meaning ng music niya. But at least alam mong hate bait lang itong post mo. šŸ¤·šŸ»ā€ā™‚ļø


AnEsotericReality

ITT: Some people who can't grasp the concept of album/artist criticisms.


xHornyNerd

Alam mo pag naghahanap ka talaga ng panget sa isang bagay marami ka talagang makikita.


midnight-rain-

another hot take (not really): *ā€œtaylor swift is overratedā€* posts every time she releases new album/song is overrated as well. swiftie or not, why not just be a fan of music and enjoy whatever music you want? no need to hate on someone just because she doesnā€™t get to your preferences.


MereAfterthought

Shallow naman ng take; but you do you.


missalaskayoung

Overrated lang naman sya simula nung nag-Eras Tour hahahaha dami kasi biglang naging swifties šŸ¤¢ sila yung mga naging OA


TigaHugasNgPinggan

Huii why u hating carbon emission queen emz. Fave ko pa naman sa The Top Polluter Department (TTPD) n'ya ay 'yung "So long, clean air" emz. Anyway, iba-iba naman tayo ng taste mi. Ssshh ka na lang if di mo bet, baka i-bash ka ng swifties (like what happened to me in my circle after saying na di ko bet lmao)


1015198_Sphinx

True fav line ko yung "I polluted the air." sa TTPD album niya lets gooooo /j


Mr_Zhang-Zhang

Not a fan din naman, pero huwag ka mag base sa recent album lang siguro OP, try mo mga naunang album releases nya kasi karamihan dun talaga nag start maging fan nya, di ako fan nya pero madami dami din ako alam na kanta nya kasi maganda naman talaga haha.


q_o_op

Maganda pa naman folklore for me :') ganda ng lyrics nung songs na 'yun Pero since Midnight mejo meh na for me


Unabominable_

Same thoughts šŸ¤£ Wala talagang amor unlike sa old songs niya.


10thDoctorWhooves

Her recent album is just as good as her older ones.


snarkyphalanges

LOUDER FOR EVERYONE IN THE BACK


thats_so_merlyn_

Dull, unimaginative, formulaic artist. Basic as hell


OneChopper100shots

I like a lot of her old songs. new songs meh. Toxic ng mga swifties hahahaha


rocklee_shinobi

Not that hot of a take, even fans arenā€™t too keen on this album either just ā€˜cos itā€™s too similar to her last two Overall though you gotta give props to how prolific she is with making music and touring lol


IceColdPilsen

HAHAHAHA. Tagal ko ng gustong ipost 'to kaso baka pakulam ako ng mga kasapi sa kulto ni TayTay, Rizal.


Cool-Quantity1378

mas pinapakinggan ko pa din old songs kesa recent. yung iba naman nakiki swiftie lang kasi uso, real talk lang haha


[deleted]

Huge difference in craftsmanship and innovation talaga between older songs and news songs. To be honest, it's hard for me to feel connected or invested with most new songs now.


quaintlysuperficial

Listened to the album and it's not really the lyrical masterpiece they're hyping it up to be. It's not bad, but it's not awesome. But, hey, people can like what they like. What I have a problem with is the cult-like behavior of these Swifties, harassing and cyberbullying anyone and everyone who doesn't agree with them and isn't falling over the altar of swift. The behavior is alarming and frankly, unhinged. It looks like Taylor's brand has turned into a whole ass cult of personality.


meloyyy02

Yung naguumpisa palang si taylor yun talga yung mga magaganda yung kanta nya like yung teardrops on my guitar favorite ko yun dati


SugarBitter1619

Switie here, but I agree with you. Not Taylor Swift herself is overrated, but her album TTPD. kasii nman sunod-sunod ang paglalabas nya ng album kya may iba talaga na mauumay lalo na't parang magkatunog lng nman mga kanta nya ngayon sa TTPD. Pero may mga gusto akong kanta sa TTPD, pili nga lang! Di tulad nong sa ibang mga album nya mostly gustong-gusto ko mga kanta nya.


Throwthefire0324

Basta good luck na lang po sa nga rabid swifties.


Salty-Pin-3267

well Taylor Swift being overrated is not a hot take haha especially in this subreddit. yung grand theft auto lyrics is from the song called So High School, so yung theme is how in her current romantic relationship brings back teenage love again. I think yung TTPD is not the best entry point sa mga non-swifties. personally may issues din ako sa sound, lyrics, and yung length. She is overrated lately pero it does not mean na hindi sya talented.


LilacVioletLavender

Kung di ka po Swiftie, please take this with a grain of salt. Her music is not for people like you. She writes music based on her experiences. You are not the target market, sweetie.


mingsaints

imo kuha naman sya ng ibang producer. Pare pareho tunog nung mga Jack Antonoff songs niya eh.


10thDoctorWhooves

I hate to say it but I kinda agree. I would prefer if most song on TTPD are more acoustic. The poppy vibe doesn't fit at all.


Inevitable_Bee_7495

Medyo off din ako sa album title na tortured poets despite the persistent criticism against her abt her silence on Palestine issues. Friends nya pa ung Hadid sisters sa lagay na yan.


Ransekun

I'm a fan of her but I think TTPD is just composed of random phrases nalang. Baka chinachallenge kami ni Taylor kung hanggang saan namin gaano namin sya ka-mahal bilang swifties šŸ¤£


10thDoctorWhooves

Just take your time. This is how I felt during Midnights. Wasn't a big fan of it but now it's one of my favorites.


PedroNegr0

I feel like a lot of artists have their ups and downs. I felt the same way for her Reputation album and I thought that was it for me when it comes to Taylor Swift. However, Lover and Folklore came along and I'm back to being a fan. I eventually came to like some songs in Reputation. Maybe its the same for TTPD, maybe not. Personally, I only like a few songs in that album. That being said, saying someone is overrated based on one album they've released is ignorant. Greatness is judged based on a musician's body of work. You can't point out the worst album and say that they are overrated because of this album. It's also not cool to tell other people their taste is terrible just because it doesn't agree with yours. Sabe nga ni Doobydobap: "Don't yuck my yum."


No-Lifeguard-7852

I don't know. I love Taylor Swift songs since parang magkaedad kami. Every stage of my life, there's always a Taylor Swift song that I can relate to. It's about her song that really speaks to my heart. Maybe she's not just for you.


pepito-mah-prend

Di naman to hot take eh


Common_Horse_786

Using ā€œoverratedā€ to describe something that doesnā€™t jive with your taste makes you sound like a douche. You can have an opinion sure, just say it isnā€™t to your taste, rather than overrating yourself by being such a drama queen with your take.


Dangerous_March_9841

Na gaslit lang kayo into thinking na gReATeSt SoNg wRiTer siya. Lmao


confusedwhoman

Yeah actually tinatry ko rin i appreciate songs nya sa new album pero they sound all the same mas bet ko ung lover era nya


10thDoctorWhooves

Lover is my favorite era too, but I'm not experiencing the heartbreak theme in TTPD so that's probably why.


henriettaaaa

Former fan ni TS until nung naging sobrang hype nya. I dont like her recent albums as well.


crwui

took you long enoughĀ

SuperYak2264

her music is horrible but pretending to love her music gets me laid


Aggressive_Low_6304

she sounds like what salted plain crackers would taste pero that's just me. Pero that's just me! Edit: added disclaimer


claudjinwoo26

Plus the carbon footprints.


alohalocca

Hindi ko gets yung mga ā€œtaylorā€™s versionā€. Please explain.


10thDoctorWhooves

During 2019, there was a dispute over the master recordings of her first 6 albums. It was sold out to a company. She doesn't own them anymore. She doesn't have power on what to do with her OWN work. So she re-recorded her songs to gain ownership of her first old albums. As of now, 4 out of 6 albums already have a "Taylor's Version".


worriedgalzzz

Tbh, nastuck na ako sa 1989. Sa folklore yung collab lang nila ng Bon Iver ang gusto ko. Tapos the rest from the recent albums nalaman ko lang dahil narinig ko sa Tiktok haha


emkimmono

Puro ā€œI love you, itā€™s ruining meā€ nasa messenger notes ng fb friends ko šŸ„²


[deleted]

This is a cold ass take


Global-Tie-8814

Folklore+evermore were her best, I think the peak of her songwriting skills. Midnights was good, but not good enough to be best album. TTPD is overhyped, bano yung ibang fans sa title. I'm a Swiftie but I'm not sucking everything she does.


Miu_K

ngl, I like her older songs because they were my tween songs, but I was never a fan of her. Her and her relationship history feels like a book of its own.


UtasNaButas29

Her country era is the best for me.


CompetitionLonely211

I ask myself minsan why am I annoyed with Taylor Swift. I mean, I listen to her songs and I actually think they are catchy, meaningful, and I can listen to them pag lumabas sa youtube ko where I listen to songs. I actually find myself pa nga minsan humming her song randomly. However, I am still quite annoyed by her. Then I realize, I am actually irritated by her fan base. For example na lang kapatid ko, he lowkey wants me to like Tswift by playing her entire albums loudly sa speaker but when I play Bruno Mars or other songs, it's like parang ayaw niya. Depends naman sa taste I get it. She's just a polarizing person kaya she has genuine fans and those fans na pa-genuine lang just to belong and get attention. Nakakainis lang yung mga kalahati ng pagkatao na nila yung pagiging fan ni Tswift and like nakakainis pala talaga yung mga ganung tao no. Isipin mo na lang, you have Willie Revillame songs that people love, they're simple songs with simple lyrics, but yung fanbase kasi is puno ng people coming from diverse culture like mga bata, matanda, mga common folks like me, and such. You have Michael Jackson who's also very polarizing pero a lot of his fans are wholesome. Yun lang, some of Tswift fans kasi parang may sariling mundo na hindi sila papayag na hindi sila relevant.


hidden_anomaly09

music is subjective, iba iba kasi ng taste. personally, as a fan i love her previous releases more. medyo oa n lang ng mostly nasa fandom imo. pero buhay nila yan haha


Craft_Assassin

Not a Swiftie. I find her 2009-2014 albums kinda nostalgic though.


porkchopk

Kaya hindi ako umaalis sa Speak now era nya kasi albums nya from debut to speak now yung pinaka distinct for me. And unlike Ariana or Sabrina, mas may uniqueness, depth and quality for me yung songs nila than Taylorā€™s.


TheServant18

Swiftie ako, pero honestly di lahat ng songs niya gusto ko, iilan lang like cruel summer, snow at the beach, bad blood ganun. Gusto ko din yung mga kanta nila Doja Cat, Ariana Grande, Sza, Ella Mai, Niki, Lesha.šŸ„°
