So Taylor Swift just dropped her album, The Tortured Poets Department (TTPD) and of course, I was waiting for it and so excited to hear it. I listened to it all in order, as soon as it dropped and I need a few business days to process the Tortured Poets Department. Not even days. Weeks.
I did have an initial ranking I did, which will certainly change as I listen and some songs probably went over my head. I won't tell you what it is but a few favourites I had that probably won't change are: My Boy Only Breaks His Favourite Toys, So Long London, So High School and thanK you aIMee, will probably remain top ten, maybe top five.
I went to the shops for a while after I had listened to TTPD twice and when I came back, I was shocked to discover that it was a DOUBLE DROP and screamed so loud, my mother thought I fell. I did have my suspicions with the hints she was giving on social media such as the emojis in the captions of her posts but I didn't actually believe it. Also FIFTEEN MORE SONGS? The mastermind was writing.
I like Fortnight (ft Post Malone) but I'm scared I might not when the music video comes out and it'll feel like a single and might get overplayed, like Anti Hero. I have to say, from my first initial reaction, it automatically went top two in my album rankings. It definitely suited my taste of music and any songs that I liked, not loved, Taylor immediately swooped in with the bridge that it was so hard to do a rough rank. And it felt so personal and she was so angry and then sad.
I am also knee deep in a school assessment and keeping up with Formula 1. I have been sucked into the sport, I fear. I was relistening to TTPD, while texting my Swiftie GC, while watching Sprint Quali, which by the way was a rollercoaster with Lando getting pole, not getting pole and then getting pole again and trying to read the lyrics for TTPD because I just discovered they were on Genius so that is basically my life right now.
Thanks for reading!
P.S. Everyone affected by any of the recent events in Sydney, I see you and hear you and I hope that Australia can get through this calmly and peacefully.
