Taylor Swift Glitchy Snake Gifs thread 2017 - Reputation

i don't understand people who hated "we are never ever getting back together" on first blush and i never will

the French at the beginning is so bad it feels like trolling

xp truth bomb

She has a habit of squeezing really clunky slogans into lyrics, doesn't she? Anyway, this reminds me of, like, Sara Bareilles. Harmless enough. How long until Taylor Swift is on Broadway?

the French at the beginning is so bad it feels like trolling

Srsly, what was the point of that?

Maybe (plus the colors) a loose nod to Umbrellas of Cherbourg?

New world to me, but the comparisons hold up:

Taylor Swift's new Jojo-Siwa-lite aesthetic is really depressing me. Surely she can get a #1 without luring iPad-addicted children to her content?? I just feel bad for the parents who will have to endure this song at school drop-offs and talent shows for years to come pic.twitter.com/fUa3HygiBs

Beeb says it could be a reference to 'Les Demoiselles de Rochefort', but that's stretching it imo. xp

unsurprisingly I love this

Have you ever heard of country music? It is a style of music that Taylor Swift played prior to recording that song. ;)

Was it like that "Old Town Road" song?

Hot takes from my daughters, aka the target demo:

14-year old "Panic!" fan: this is OK.

11-year old theatre kid: "Is this for 2-year olds?" Shortly afterward she started singing "Fight Song," but I have heard her walking around ironically singing "you can't spell US without ME!" So: mission accomplished?

The only thing Demy-like about this is that it's as unbearably wtf awful as his last one, the one where Yves Montand plays himself and fucks his own daughter. But I guess Brendon Urie is too young for that to be the twist.

Why do I already feel like I've heard this chorus a hundred times?

you can't spell empty without me

lmao oh my god this is so embarrassing, it's literally called "ME!" and the whole song is just like "I'm NoT lIkE oThEr GiRlS", great to see she sure has matured and evolved a lot over the last decade!!!!

ahah, yeah that french speaking intro is wtf !
and the whole thing is hideous in every aspects...
but I suppose her fanbase will love it since it's hooks-a-gogo.

her RYM fanbase is completely hating this tbh. hard to say if they feel more betrayed by her or marina

lol love to see ppl desperately trying to convince themselves that this song might not be horrible

would be good for, like, the end credits of Minions movie

this was starting to grow on me on second listen except for the millennial whoop which I will always hate and is pretty much impossible to ignore here. I didn't pick up on the godawful "spelling is fun" though until I read this thread because I'm dumb and just couldn't make out what was being said, to me it sounded like "stalling is fun" which made no sense of course but I was already leaning towards just hearing it as "Stalin is fun!" but now that's ruined.

I like the hookiness of it, which at times reaches almost K-pop'ian levels of overload, but the whole thinking is so winking, and so sour. Just make some joy and enjoy it. It's pop! It's not complicated.

spelling is fun vs. everybody loves counting

It's a good thing this is just a soundtrack song from a kids movie rather than some event preceded by weeks of countdowns and murals

i predict this will appear on "inspiring" "active" playlists for years to come

The CGI is really amazing in this video, very pretty production values

I don't see a marked difference between this and any of her singles 1989 onward

what is with the painting of the dixie chicks

like i know the lyrics say "lots of cool chicks" at the point where we see it but why tho

In fact, I appreciate the snare-focused production stuff, it's interesting and silly and totally OK

I'm going to my son's preschool festival tomorrow and fully expect a Kids Bop version of this to be playing there

The video is like, what we gave Meghan Trainor too much money and too much power?

lmao

xxxxpost Dixie Chicks (or just Maines) supposedly guests on new TS album

can someone delete this new song so i don't have to hear it playing anywhere

I liked "Shake It Off," despised "We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together," liked "Look What You Made Me Do," and this is... fine.

This song sounds like someone tried to do one of those ultimate-lifeform cloning experiments by cross-pollinating “Roar” and “Fight Song” and every other Lite FM inspiro-pop standard and, like, it was a success, but the result is still in that creepy early stage you see with artificial creatures in movies where it doesn’t fully understand its power yet and can’t, like, stand on its own (which I guess is analogous here to having the most basic of all chord progressions)
I’m guessing by later this month it will have escaped its lab and witnessed some example of human cruelty that turns it against us as a species, at which point, like, sorry, we’re done for

Oh yeah, Brendon Urie really looks like he's having lots of fun in this, and is not as bad as I thought he would be when reading that he'd be on the song.

xpost Are you saying that we have reached the Singularity?

Brendon Urie always looks like he is having fun, because he is Peak Theatre Kid and it looks like Taylor can't stop making cheap-seats faces, either.

brendon did a ton of vines (as above), he's in his element

lmao "hey man you guys really looked you were having fun up there" - now we're reaching for "just saw your coworker's terrible band and you have to say something nice" level comments

Is there really a 'me' in 'team'? This seems debatable.

the deterioration of her lyrics remains depressing to me but i eventually grew to kinda love reputation including "look what you made me do," it is very good at being what it is

hoping for a similar feeling about this one in two years i guess

reputation is a pretty great album its pre-release singles notwithstanding. i just felt like she had wrung everything she could from the post-skrillex pop template she settled on w max martin & shellback but this is pretty close to my worst nightmare of what she would turn to next

like, do we need to crowdfund $20 million or something for her to just go ahead and make like a sheryl crow or bonnie raitt album? what's going on here

instead of this new one i would like to talk about how "don't blame me" is one of her very best songs

this is the first time she's sounded manic and desperate, like someone pleading for her life; she could've titled it "You Must Love Me."

these TS first singles are feeling more and more like Eminem's reaching-for-relevancy first singles

Without Me?

this is terrible and it loses even more points for making me google who Jojo Siwa is.

Je soo-way calme.
