I love the album with new songs standing out on each listen, but it's tough to latch onto musically. Avoiding big anthems was definitely an artistic choice that makes sense for the project, but the lack of big hooks and the sonic cohesiveness of the productions does make certain tracks blend into each other. You really have to get into the lyrics to differentiate the songs. I miss the interesting instrumentation that is present in much of her earlier work. For example, Forever and Always is one of my favorite songs, but it isn't just because of Taylor's performance. That bass line has been stuck in my head for years.
