completely agree. a modern pop album from taylor being the one album that makes it on this list is mind blowing. i LOVE 1989 but i feel so uneasy as to why it made it but folklore or red didn’t make it.

They were only going to go with one Taylor album because a certain group of music critics were going to complain no matter what Taylor album got chosen so I think that’s why they went with 1989 since that’s the Taylor record most of the critics that would’ve complained no matter what tend to enjoy. Red is her critical darling, it has a little bit of everything especially genres that were under represented on the list. Folklore is her strongest writing on a record overall but I’ve seen a lot of critics turn on this record especially because critics are starting to not enjoy Taylor more and more. If we’re looking at her best answer most critically acclaimed works there pickings we’re going to be from Fearless, Red, 1989, and folklore, I really think certain artists and certain albums shouldn’t have been on the list to make way for Melodrama, Rensiance, TPAB, and maybe another Taylor pick with it being ether Red or Folklore. I’m not going to say which albums those albums should’ve replaced because I’m not about to catch heat especially from my own fandoms (I enjoy most artists that made it onto the lists and most albums too), but I did notice Apple Music is ether the exclusive streamer or exclusive sellers list for the deluxe versions of the albums that ,add it on here so….yeah

@@kalmanta1824I understand that it should be taken into account when talking about the "greatest music of all time" but I think most people over exaggerate influence that an artist or album has on other artists.

It doesn't matter who did it first, if the person who did it second did it best, then we should consider it a better album.

Yeah I still don't understand choosing 1989 (especially tv) over folklore, which is taylor's best songwriting. 1989 is good but it's just a basic pop album, not deserving to be here and especially in the top 20. I agree that red would've also been a great option. Folklore is more cohesive as an album though

Nah, red is better imo and probably objectively but to deride 1989 as “basic” is ehhh. It’s very tightly written pop and combines great lyricism with amazing productions and hooks. It has low points in bad blood and shake it off but it shows Taylor rlly well as someone who can write great lyrics regardless of genre
@alicesevastou36413 ай бұрын
@scottmoir7501 I see your point and I agree. Maybe "basic" was far-fetched, I just meant that 1989, alone, doesn't really showcase why taylor stands out as a songwriter. And being placed so high seems crazy to me, especially since taylor alone has a few albums that in my opinion top it. (Speak now, red, folklore, evermore)

I think the 1989 album is at the right place, in my opinion it's one of the most iconic pop albums of that decade. The choice which version I think is harder. If you see it from nostalgic point, the original wins as many people who were with her music that time they remember it like that. Otherwise the re record proves the album whitstand the test of time. It's very unusual for a 10 year old album to be remastered or recorded and hit that big again. Most of the times after 10 years music go to a not cool phase and it's more after 20 years people start liking it again because of sentimental values.
