I wouldn’t be surprised to see all 31 of Taylor Swift’s new songs take up 62% of the ARIA Top 50 Singles Chart next week (they are updated at 5:00pm AEST on Fridays).

Speaking of which, “Too Sweet” by Hozier has knocked Benson Boone’s “Beautiful Things” off top spot for the week starting Monday 22 April, though I think Hozier’s time at the top will be cut short by this time next week.

On first listen, this is not Ms. Swift’s best work.

‘Taylor is not important. She might be a safe space for girls, but she’s not interesting as an artist’

Courtney Love slagged off Taylor Swift this week. I have to say that on this occasion that I agree with her comments. :joy:

To be honest, I don’t mind Taylor Swift, there’s just too much of her
 she’s bigger than Ben Hur.

In my opinion, she has a handful of songs that are alright but generally her music is mostly bland.

I know what you mean, but comparatively speaking, i find her more listenable than 90% of what’s new in the iTunes Top 100 for instance.

Ticketek, the ticketing company said full refunds would be issued to everyone as the company continues to “work through the rescheduling process with the artist”.

I think the best way I can describe her new song is how I did on my show this week
 The keyboard is either:

a. A Car Parking Sensor
b. Truck Reversing
c. Tay left the fridge open and it wants her to close it

Plus the song is so boring it could put an insomniac in a coma, she needs to give up before it gets embarrasing, although I think that ship has already passed.

I have to agree here. IMO her new album is more incredibly generic pop, doesn’t bring a whole lot new to the table (not that I didn’t think it would)

Yet her legion of fans stans (who BTW have in the past sent threats of violence/death to people who have publicly disliked her music) come to her defence calling her ‘a lyrical genius’ the when a lot of the lyrics in the songs featured are borderline word salad in some cases. It feels like a bandwagon that is way overdue of ending.

The way Taylor Swift is going right now, she could produce or release a bad song yet it could still chart well.

She could release a fart as a “song” and it would still sell well!

Probably would sound better than some of the tracks on her latest album. :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

Recently came across this Aussie classic, just puts you in a good mood, the great Slim Dusty:

:notes: “
I love to have a beer with Duncan
Oh I love to have a beer with Dunc.
We drink in moderation
And we never ever ever get rollin’ drunk
We drink at the Town and Country
Where the atmosphere is great
I love to have a beer with Duncan
'Cause Duncan’s me mate
Oh yes I love to have a beer with Duncan, 'cause Duncan’s me mate.” :notes:

28/31 possible Taylor Swift songs from her two latest albums which were released last week, have predictably flooded the ARIA Singles Chart.

No surprise that TTPD has also topped the Albums chart.
