Any Swifties out there?

Taylor Swift.

Her new albums I think are just amazing. Best ones I've listened to in a few years.

My favourite songs are exile from folklore and tolerate it from evermore. They really hit home because I've had similar issues with past relationships.

Anyone else ? Whenever I mention to my friends that Taylor is my new favourite artist I get funny looks!

She’s been my favourite artist for over 10 years (I don’t tend to tell people though!). Her albums just get better and better - agree these last 2 are excellent. Her earliest albums that she’s re-recording are pretty teenage, but because I loved them as a teenager it still works for me Smile

She is an extraordinary talent. Up there with Beyoncé.

Hufflepuffsunite · 28/04/2021 15:00

Yes! Love her! My favourite album of hers was 1989 until folklore came out. I absolutely love Mad Woman and Betty.

Loved her ever since I heard ‘Love Story’ on the radio for the first time... I think that she is the most incredibly talented writer and musician.

SirSamuelVimes · 28/04/2021 15:03

I think she's brilliant!

KeepSmiling89 · 28/04/2021 15:05

I'm a Swifty here but went off her albums after 1989. Lover was OK as well but too many slow and depressing songs now. She used to have a better range of songs IMHO.

Yep I love her too! Listen to her stuff on constant repeat.... much to my husband enjoyment hahaha

Can I suggest if you like taylor you may like Sam Hunt.... he is considered "country" but also too poppy for real country fans.

Basically my top 2 artists on Spotify

Yes! I love her! Love her recent stuff as well as the absolute classics Red and 1989. Loved Lover and was going to a Lover concert last summer and just hoping she tours again soon! 🙏 Favourite songs are Cornelia St, Cruel Summer, Long Live, All too well, Peace, Invisible String, Marjorie. Could go on forever!!

KFleming · 28/04/2021 15:34

Yes! I love the two newer albums. My favourites are probably Ivy, and Champagne Problems. But I really like Tolerate It as well.

MrsTerryPratchett · 28/04/2021 15:34

I'm not one but I have seen her live and she's incredibly talented and professional. I've seen a LOT of live act and she's very good.

OhToBeASeahorse · 28/04/2021 15:45

Absolutely! My favourite artist. I love her! I had a daughter in October and was nervous about her unusual name - then out came Evermore and it was a track name!

LorelaiVictoriaGilmore · 28/04/2021 15:49

Oooooh, looking up Sam Hunt...

AngeloMysterioso · 28/04/2021 16:02

I love her! Her Reputation concert at Wembley was one of the best shows I’ve ever been to.

ScottishDiblet · 28/04/2021 16:09

Ooh @AngeloMysterioso me too!! It was a BRILLIANT show!
@OhToBeASeahorse congratulations! What’s her name? Ivy? ❤️ That name.

ScottishDiblet · 28/04/2021 16:17

@OhToBeASeahorse wait!! Is it Marjorie? Beautiful!! ❤️❤️

OhToBeASeahorse · 28/04/2021 16:18

@ScottishDiblet no it's the other one!

OhToBeASeahorse · 28/04/2021 16:18

I didnt even remember Ivy - there's a 3rd one!

ScottishDiblet · 28/04/2021 16:20

Dorothea!! Love it!! Why has this taken me so long. Apologies. An absolutely stunning name and beautiful song. Flowers

OhToBeASeahorse · 28/04/2021 16:22

Thank you! Everytime I hear the song I think of playing it at her 18th or something and the line 'you'll always know me' makes my heart swell

megletthesecond · 28/04/2021 16:26

I love she's called their bluff and re-recorded her old tracks.

amusedbush · 28/04/2021 16:57

I absolutely love her, but if you saw me/my general taste in music you’d never guess! I could listen to the Lover album forever.

Poor DH needed a lift to work at the crack of dawn the day that Evermore was released and I had it on in the car at 6am Grin

ScottishDiblet · 28/04/2021 20:56

I’ve found my people!! Grin

KM38 · 28/04/2021 21:10

@ScottishDiblet I was just thinking the same myself 😍🙌🏻

Hi fellow Swifties 😊 I think she’s a phenomenal talent. And I believe that she is a truly lovely person too.

For me it’s her lyrics that make her music so special! Does anyone have a favourite lyric? 🎶

WeCameToDance · 28/04/2021 21:48

I absolutely adore Taylor and I’m not ashamed to admit it! Have done since the Fearless days.
I love this is me trying and Coney Island of her newer albums. Both are such beautiful songs.
Epiphany is hauntingly beautiful as well.
