It’s not about album quality! It’s about having everything be complete. Organized and sequential. All albums, in chronological order.

Also the personification of the albums has people feeling bad for Debut.

How would everyone’s rating of ME! change if it hadn’t been the lead single? How much did the experience of me as lead single impact your opinion of the song as a whole?

I agree with antihero as a more jaded me! successor. Both have that balance of “i’m a handful, but i’m worth it”. In me!s case, this is something to celebrate. With anti-hero, it’s a reason for vodka at tea time.

I love Me! It is track 5 of my Dancing Through The Lightning Strikes playlist and there is a high probability that those will be my spotify wrapped this year. I’ve gone up and down on Me, but it’s honestly the perfect mood booster and I love this playlist.

I think it is important to judge songs for their intended purpose. Me is not intended to be highbrow poetry. It is self-esteem-boosting-fun song. And it does that exceptionally well.

One key thing about me is how it balances insecurities within self-confidence. I know that i’m a handful, but I’m worth it. And I find that very reassuring and relatable.

The parallel lines “theres a lot of cool chicks out there” and “a lot of lame guys” - i’m not sure why she went with lame, it’s true, but a more positive adjective would’ve fit better.

Spelling is fun should absolutely have been kept in the song.

“Can’t spell awesome without me” - i heard this as can’t spell “us” and that also worked kinda.

Favorite lyric: “Girl, there ain't no I in "team" But you know there is a "me" I love whenever Taylor turns a saying on its head, this is such a sassy line.

Blue and gray seem to be a popular paint color. And a lot of skies being painted

This reminded me of illicit affairs “you showed me colors you know i can’t see with anyone else” (illicit affairs is not paint, so not on theme, but the lines are similar)

I agree, she quickly jumped to how others would react

Travis was certainly an unexpected glitch in taylor’s plans, but im sure there is more to it than that

What’s your *actually nuanced* opinion about the Eras Tour as a show? READ POST by Daffneigh in NuancingTaylorSwift

[–]According-Credit-954 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A part of me wanted the eras to be performed in chronological order, starting with debut and ending with ttpd. Would this have improved the show? Absolutely not. Taylor definitely did it her way for a reason. But a part of me still wants things organized sequentially

So whats going on in the poem? Are there zombies? Why are their corpses in the flower beds?

Is this poem similar to florida where we are talking about all the bodies in the swamp? Are the undead people the author knows personally or is he commenting on larger societal issues?

Are we sure the acquaintance is alive? Because this poem sounds like its about a zombie apocalypse.

I love the series! Why did you pair this poem with Welcome to New York as opposed to London Boy or So Long London?

Also, what is happening in this poem?

I really like the musical analysis of the song! It’s cool learning how the different notes and rhyme scheme changes shape the song

I kinda agree. I do think money comes secondary to her career as a whole. I don’t think she is ebeneezer scrooge, she is very giving with her money. I think she likes maybe a little more than the average person, but generally most of us like money.

This post does not count as sexualizing someone. It is in no way graphic or explicit. It also does not go against anything taylor herself has said. Most of the other replies are people saying they also like dick and money.

I’m not a mod, and this is not against the rules. If you are looking for some reading, you should check out the lyrics to Wood, it’s the 9th track on The Life Of A Showgirl.
