Misheard lyric: “and there’s a gasoline haze…” Real lyric: “and there’s a dazzling haze and mysterious way”

Lover has grown on me a lot after more listens. It’s so hard to rank the tracks because ME! and YNTCD are pop songs while The Archer and Lover are ballads. I’d say Lover might be the best track we’ve heard so far now. I still enjoy the bops though. And The Archer has grown on me too, though I’d still say it might be at the bottom of the ranking for me.

She also released the track listing yesterday! (Though it has been spoiled for a while now)
The titles are really unique and interesting this era.
1. I Forgot You Existed - said to be a great way to open the album 2. Cruel Summer - this is one of the most popular tracks, described as a bop 3. Lover 4. The Man - she talked about this in her interview with Vogue, basically like Blank Space type concept about how she’d be treated if she were a man 5. The Archer 6. I Think He Knows 7. Miss Americana and the Heartbreak Prince 8. Paper Rings 9. Cornelia Street - lyric mention in the Vogue interview I believe 10. Death by a Thousand Cuts 11. London Boy 12. Soon You’ll Get Better (feat. the Dixie Chicks) - about her mom’s battle with cancer, said to be the saddest song on the record and saddest song she’s ever made 13. False God - said to have political undertones 14. You Need to Calm Down 15. Afterglow 16. ME! (feat. Brendon Urie of Panic! at the Disco) 17. It’s Nice to Have a Friend 18. Daylight - “step into the daylight and let it go,” said to be a great closer

It’s sad when you invite a fan to your house and ask that they keep a secret and then they go sell the track list to Perez Hilton.

Yeah I have mixed feelings about the Secret Sessions. I think it’s amazing she does them but it comes with a lot of issues. Maybe she should make everyone sign an NDA so that they will get sued if they say anything. But I imagine she wouldn’t want to treat her fans like that.
The thing with SS is that a lot of fans feel disappointed when they don’t get an invite and a lot of the ones who do sometimes brag about it or act superior. They’ve leaked info that should have remained private (this also happened with rep if I remember right) and supposedly stolen stuff from her house. I read that some people sold the merch she gave them as well as the stuff they stole at high prices on eBay. Luckily most of the fans who attend respect Taylor and are so grateful for the experience. But sometimes the way they choose guests is unfair too, like there are some people who got invited to a SS for the past albums and got invited again, while there’s many people who never got invited at all. Apparently they also combined the Rhode Island and Nashville Sessions because someone leaked the address of her RI home. And the Nashville one is done at her mom’s house instead of Taylor’s condo because of space I guess but maybe also privacy reasons.
I think it’s a cool thing she does that certainly no one else does, but maybe after this album they should do away with it entirely or at least do listening parties but in a public place like a hotel or something. It’s super generous of her to open her homes to her fans but it creates so many privacy issues as well as people stealing stuff. She doesn’t deserve that.

I heard the RI got canceled because of the burglar guy they caught beforehand. And when we visited the Bluebird in Nashville before her concert we met a girl who had actually been an extra in her 22 video. We had a long talk while waiting in line. She showed us pictures from the back then. She also said they keep a list at her security headquarters in Hendersonville and that no one ever gets invited twice to anything who is just a “civilian”.

Yeah even though there’s definitely many fans who have met Taylor multiple times because she wanted to meet them, I think SS should be a one time only experience. Especially anyone coming to her home.

I'd seen the titles. They got me like 👀 I can't wait to see how they sound and what they say. But I didn't know that it was leaked. The stealing and being ungrateful is kind of a given. There are some slimy people out there and being a major fan doesn't change that.

There’s been fans who attended Lover SS who also apparently attended rep. So I’m not sure that’s true.

Are you sure they did? We know she’s got some shady folks showing up. I’d have to see they same peep in pictures with her from both SS to believe it.

I'm really excited to see those titles! They seem all very interesting!! Can't wait. Lover is amazing! After first listen I was like: Yeah this is amazing anthem! I love the lyrics and how she sings the word 'Lover' after the: You're my my my my..... 'Lover'. But I'm kinda shocked people stole from her house while being at a SS... like... how dare you?! It's a once in a lifetime experience with (one of your) fave artist and then people act that way? She should do them indeed in a public place... she doesn't deserve this. Anyway... I'm really curious for a few tracks!! The whole cd actually but some titles are making me think: What would that be about? A pity: Got an e-mail from the store I pre-ordered the cd that is delayed and the think my cd will arrive August 27th.... like... aaarghh!!! Why? EVeryone knows Taylor is popular so they just have not enough in stock I guess... so lame!! Thank god I still have Spotify Premium (the free month) so I can listen there!

Yeah my plan is to stream the album on Apple Music then go to Target after work to pick up one of the deluxe copies. I wish there was some option to get all the bonus content in one box set without buying all 4 editions. It would cost me about $60 I think for all 4 and I also don’t want to get stuck with 4 CDs of the same thing. I also just don’t have that much shelf space for 4 copies. So it will be tricky deciding which edition to get. I imagine someone will buy them all and scan the pages and post them online. I think everyone’s trying to figure out which edition will have the original lyrics of ATW in it though lol

Why not wait until you know what each edition has and which package it comes in so you can get it?
Lover came on and I was so into it. It's a really nice song. So my ranking is Lover, ME!, YNTCD, then that other one I didn't like.
