I’ve heard two songs off the upcoming Taylor Swift album, love one, didn’t love the other, and if a big fan like Alix Wartell -who introduced me to Taylor years ago, thinks “Mine” is samey, perhaps Taylor has a problem.
She has been threatening: “Through the past two years, I’ve been through a lot of things that I have been dying to write about and talk about. There were a lot of things that I wanted to say in the moment but couldn’t, and this album is my opportunity to do that”.
Eek, let’s hope there is a lot of things more interesting than the increasingly tedious story of her and imma Kanye.
Here is the tracklist (why do I feel like I know what every single song is about?)
1. Mine
2. Sparks Fly
3. Back to December
4. Speak Now
5. Dear John
6. Mean
7. The Story of Us
8. Never Grow Up
9. Enchanted
10. Better Than Revenge
11. Innocent
12. Haunted
13. Last Kiss
14. Long Live
