jhulud Posted August 19, 2014 Share Posted August 19, 2014 T-Swizzle & new album 1989 Discussion. And hopefully it gets a vinyl release. Dooooooo it!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
biodigitaljazz Posted August 19, 2014 Share Posted August 19, 2014 I actualy kind of bums me out to listen to Fearless, and then the single. There was so much musicianship on Fearless. In this song she actually says "Hella good hair." I mean I know if follows the 1989 theme. I dunno. I'll wait to hear the rest of the record because WANEGBT didn't speak for Red.

parkinglot Posted August 19, 2014 Share Posted August 19, 2014 In this song she actually says "Hella good hair."Jeff says "hella early" in Everybody That Loves You, and that song is fucking great. But yeah, not a huge fan of the song. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ifworkpermits Posted August 19, 2014 Share Posted August 19, 2014 If you are listening to her debut singles for a new album for her display of musicianship, then you are doing it all wrong. Yes back before she was the major draw she is now her singles offered more content but now it needs to garner radio play, which this will. As it has been said before, the full album will (hopefully) offer a lot more. I for one love the single! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jhulud Posted August 19, 2014 Author Share Posted August 19, 2014 I listened to "Shake It Off" again this morning to follow up from letting it perculate if you will since last night. I like it more. It's a fun and poppy song. The video lends itself perfectly to the lyrics being all tongue-in-cheek and self depricating which I was obviously what Swift is going for.

jhulud Posted August 19, 2014 Author Share Posted August 19, 2014 Who's Earl Sweatshirt? Seriously. I have no idea who he is. Any relation to Jose Pantalones? http://pitchfork.com/news/56374-earl-sweatshirt-taylor-swift-is-perpetuating-black-stereotypes-with-her-new-video/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
booms528 Posted August 19, 2014 Share Posted August 19, 2014 He's in Odd Future (Tyler The Creator's crew)... I actually like his music, but disagree with what he's saying. I also re-listened to the single this morning and don't hate it as much as before. I'm okay with it being overly poppy and catchy (I actually really like the instrumentals/horns/etc), based on the WANGBT theory. I definitely wasn't on board with that song, but Red as a whole made up for it. My main issue is the crappy/lazy lyricism. The idea/theme of the song is fine, but the whole "haters" and "players" garbage and that awful spoken/rap/cheer bridge are really really bad and ultimately still ruin the song for me.

konk Posted August 19, 2014 Share Posted August 19, 2014 Why did she keep the black clothes on when all the "normal people" were dancing? Is the hipster look now her everyday look? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jhulud Posted August 19, 2014 Author Share Posted August 19, 2014 Ah OK. Thanks. What I find amusing about his comments is that he admits right out of the gate that he hasn't watched the video. Sooooooo...how can you make an informed and accusatory opinion if you haven't watched the video and studied its content? And I don't know nor care how old Sweatshirt is, but anyone who was aware in the late 80's knows fully well that plenty of people and girls dressed as such portrayed in the video and acted that way as well. Even the Midwest mallrat girls dressed like that. I remember all that shit from back then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snaggle Von Swift Posted August 19, 2014 Share Posted August 19, 2014 Really want "Sweeter Than Fiction" to be a bonus track on 1989. The quality of the webrip just doesn't cut it for me. Needs a proper release. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

biodigitaljazz Posted August 19, 2014 Share Posted August 19, 2014 Love Earl, didn't see that that quote was from him. Pretty disappointing. Saying "I haven't watched the video" is saying "Disregard everything I say after this." Workpermits, I said right afterward that I WASN'T judging the album based on the single, because if I had done that with WANEGBT I would have never bought Red... 3 times Vince Ives 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jhulud Posted August 19, 2014 Author Share Posted August 19, 2014 Didnt she say this was going to be a straight pop album already? She did. And somewhere on the interwebz, some have been saying that there are no ballads per se in the album at all. As usual with any first singles released, they generally may not be wholly representative of the album itself. We shall see once more singles start coming out and then the album itself is released.

Snaggle Von Swift Posted August 19, 2014 Share Posted August 19, 2014 Just put in my pre-order through Target Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jhulud Posted August 19, 2014 Author Share Posted August 19, 2014 Just put in my pre-order through Target Ditto. I like how the estimated delivery date is between 10/29 & 11/3. Awesome pre-order to get AFTER the release date. That's what I always hate about that type of shit. UGH. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
biodigitaljazz Posted August 19, 2014 Share Posted August 19, 2014 No preorder for me. It's Taylor Swift, it's not a limited version of an album by an indie band that I love. I'll torrent it when it leaks, and buy a deluxe CD from target on release day as per the last two albums. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1876records Posted August 19, 2014 Share Posted August 19, 2014 I think I'll just snag the deluxe at Target on the street date to avoid having to wait. I just want the code for the #1989SwiftStakes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jhulud Posted August 19, 2014 Author Share Posted August 19, 2014 I cancelled my order with Target. Stupid to order and get it AFTER the street date. I'll do like last few times and pick it up day of. Snaggle Von Swift 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
