this became my favorite album of all time after my second listen. being an indecisive person that was shocking. the amount of times i’ve listened to songs on repeat before audibly saying that i love them, let alone that they’re my favorite, is innumerable. this album became a novel in a tree house in the woods, and it was that comfort and freeness of emotion Ms. Swift displayed like never before, that proved this as a masterpiece in her repertoire of powerful storytellings.
One of my favorite tracks of the year, simply for the fact that it gives me nostalgia for something I’ve never actually experienced. Maia is very proficient at making a teenager feel even more like a teenager. Those who don’t appreciate her music have usually already passed the phase of needing validation from someone with more recognition, so for her audience, she does exceptional.
