Taylor really wrote an entire album in 3 months and didn’t tell her label till she was about to release it and all I can think about is how Scott forced her to change the name of the Speak Now album from Enchanted to Speak Now and forced her into changing Red from it’s orginal direction so that it would have more singles to sell instead of the album being cohesive. Taylor Swift has ALWAYS BEEN LIKE THIS but she could never show it becuase of Scott and Big Machine. I won’t stop saying how happy I am that she is free to be her complete self!

I hope swifties realize just how acclaimed folklore is by locals like people who don’t even like Taylor are enamored with it (from personal experience speaking to people)

Hey guys, it’s Taylor…

folklore album as polaroids.

[truetomylover]

Me at any event/place with music: “There’s no good music on.”

What I really mean: “Ugh, they’re not playing folklore”

Me piecing together which song is sung by which character and connecting the story together from the non-chronological order

[heystephen]

I feel like this is a lot of people’s takeaway but I’m gonna say it too: this is the most Taylor album. It’s not that her other albums appear as masks or characters or genres and ideas that she would pick up and play with, I think each of her albums are absolutely true to Taylor through the phases where she wrote them, but folklore feels like Taylor in its entirety. Not a phase of her life, but the at times theatrical and very detailed storytelling we’ve caught glimpses of through songs like Mary’s Song, Love Story, Speak Now, INTHAF etc set on top of production that captures the way every single song feels.

[heystephen]

I think putting it most simply: her albums have always been very interesting and cherished because chronologically they’ve been about being a teenager, becoming a woman, the different ways heartbreak manifests as you get older, her fall from grace, her falling in love, etc. This album exists outside of the feeling of genre and era because these songs could exist from any point in her career. There’s no real life story to connect them to to find their real life inspiration. I love it.
