I have searched but haven't seen a thread about this yet, sorry if it is a duplicate.

I put this on tonight expecting it to follow her on tour but have been pleasantly surprised. It touches on so many issues that I worry will affect my DD.

I thought her account of being groped was incredibly sad and mirrors what most of my friends who have taken a stand against this behaviour have experienced.

The part about her voicing her concerns about Trump and how his political stance would/is affecting laws that protect women along with the background about the Dixie chicks was shocking.

Has anyone else seen this?

Reputation is underrated. Agrees, Dress is SCORCHING.

Also, where was our video for Getaway Car? That would have been the best. Especially funny if she could get Tom Hiddleston in it!

I don't listen to dress in front of my kids. They just think there's this one song on Reputation I don't like.

I love SO many songs on that album. The people behind the Grammys are assholes. She was basically snubbed again this year too.

Seeing as this is the feminism forum, if you aren't familiar with her more feminist songs here's a list;
Dear John - this song was written when she was 19 I think, and it's incredible. The subject is the delightful John Mayer.
I did something bad
This is why we can't have nice things
The man (being released as a single, lyric video out but think actual video should be out tomorrow and it should be GOOD)
You need to calm down
Shake it off (yes, really)
Clean
Look what you made me do (this song gets so much stick but I love it, it was fab on tour too)
White Horse

I'm sure there are others. Getaway car kinda too. It's just such a good song.

I think she would be a good public representative

she's certainly been through enough to know how to handle it.

I don't know what gets classified as country now. I love Story of Us, for example. And Our Song, but sure, that's clearly country.
