Personally, I liked Taylor Swift a lot better when she was just a little girl from Pennsylvania trying to speak country as a second language.
.
Or even when she was pushing out into poppier-sounding music, but would still write actual lyrics to go with them. “The Story of Us” is still a guilty-pleasure song. (“Now I’m standing alone in a crowded room…and I’m dying to know if it’s killing you like it’s killing me…”)
.
But this Taylor Swift? Not even a pretension to country, zero lyrical interest — just another manufactured-sounding pop princess. You can keep her, and welcome.
You got me into Taylor Swift with this, and…well, I’m not really in a hurry to be gotten out of this. So, thanks?
