~SPOILER~ I was hoping that the video would have ended with him getting killed by those pool players

Song doesn't work for a "We Found Love" video.

The new video is not Tay's finest hour. Kind of looks like a generic modern pop video. Even though this video follows the same basic "plot" as the "Begin Again" video (Taylor meets Cute Guy), it's hard to believe that the two videos were made by the same artist.

these extended monologues in music videos need to fucking stop

oh dear, that's not good. the song isn't BIG enough to bear the weight of portentous spoken word monologues, all the imagery is just ~edgy~ by numbers, and taylor looks vaguely uncomfortable throughout. cringe @ the literalism of "now i'm lying on the cold hard ground". lol @ how the video is kind of her slut-shaming herself.

it's odd, for an artist i love so much she's made zero videos i really love. they all paint in the broad, clichéd brushstrokes that her songs avoid.

lex pretend, Saturday, 15 December 2012 10:46 (thirteen years ago)

Nice to see you say something negative about her.

;)

The "You Belong With Me" video is pretty charming. And I like Taylor's princess dress and the overall faux-Jane Austen vibe of the "Love Story" video. And, while I could do without the Afterschool Special-style anti-bullying vignettes in "Mean," the performance half of that video is probably her best video.

The I Knew You Were Trouble video clip appears to be a morality tale about the consequences of bad haircuts.

Tim F, Saturday, 15 December 2012 22:11 (thirteen years ago)

lol

really love the videos for "ours" and "safe and sound"; have been indifferent to the last three

Am I the only one who's madly jealous seeing her with Harry Styles?? It came to the point that I don't listen to her music as often as before.

dan138zig (Durrr Durrr Durrrrrr), Monday, 17 December 2012 01:28 (thirteen years ago)

your reactions to taylor have not been amongst the most pure

乒乓, Monday, 17 December 2012 01:29 (thirteen years ago)

HAYLOR IS FAKE LARRY IS REAL

teledyldonix, Monday, 17 December 2012 01:37 (thirteen years ago)

Harry Styles sounds like a love interest name from a gay James Bond movie.

Josh in Chicago, Monday, 17 December 2012 02:17 (thirteen years ago)

don't be creepy

wait confused. who are we jealous of there?

because while mr. styles is not the top 3 most attractive of his, the mad jealousy definitely flows in that direction if you get my drift.

and mostly it's just high five taylor way to make out with a skinny british boy with adorably terrible hair.

>.<

dan138zig (Durrr Durrr Durrrrrr), Monday, 17 December 2012 04:47 (thirteen years ago)

can't believe you guys made me look up harry styles and figure out what the hell y'all are talking about.

Gukbe, Monday, 17 December 2012 04:52 (thirteen years ago)

haha.

sorry. my rule of thumb is that whenever internet conversations about female musicians get male gaze-y and i don't have the desire/time/energy to rant, I just put the shoe on the other foot.

plus, the point of boy bands is more or less to be pretty. so.

I watched her Storytellers this weekend and it just made me adore her all the more.

That is exactly how i would expect a joke post from Yglesias about Taylor Swift to read.

Tim F, Tuesday, 18 December 2012 20:22 (thirteen years ago)

Right down to the surprisingly close lyrical reading for satirical purposes.

Tim F, Tuesday, 18 December 2012 20:23 (thirteen years ago)

two weeks pass...

for some reason this album sounds a lot better to me now that it's like 15 degrees out

dead cera (J0rdan S.), Thursday, 3 January 2013 05:14 (thirteen years ago)

one of the great things about tay's albums for me is that when I think I've "mastered" the album or even got kinda bored of it there's a song that just came out of nowhere and be my new jam. currently the song is "i almost do".

dan138zig (Durrr Durrr Durrrrrr), Friday, 4 January 2013 04:04 (thirteen years ago)

Middle eight on "I Almost Do" is classic 4 eva

Tim F, Friday, 4 January 2013 04:09 (thirteen years ago)

"tay"!!

'i almost do' is a great song

johnny crunch, Friday, 4 January 2013 04:22 (thirteen years ago)

I really love the rhythm of the line about sitting in your chair by the window looking out at the city.

lex pretend, Friday, 4 January 2013 14:13 (thirteen years ago)

dan138zig (Durrr Durrr Durrrrrr), Friday, 4 January 2013 14:17 (thirteen years ago)

faith in tay tay shaken after she shared that acapella cover

乒乓, Tuesday, 8 January 2013 00:27 (thirteen years ago)

this song is realllllllly catchy

it's extremely carly rae, to the point i actually thought it was an underlistened album track or something the first time i heard it; it's got the clipped little guitars on the verse, the chorus with big distorted powerchords

i like how she basically slept through the entire end of burning man

wow, "Girl at Home" has snuck up on me! it's almost...indie pop? at least as I understand that term. like, a very minor, twee jam, may as well be a drum machine, toy synth sounds, muted bass, minor minor minor, everybody knows that, I love it

Euler, Sunday, 20 January 2013 17:45 (thirteen years ago)

obviously i should have bought the deluxe edition
