Ah I see, although I would like to think she probably will do a physical release at some point if it’s not in the week. Either way it’s going to have phenomenal sales and personally I’m more interested in her US figures as I think they will just be utterly insane (not that it won’t be very impressive UK wise).

A rare mistep. The Standard: Taylor Swift - The Tortured Poets Department album review: underwhelming and clunky So whilst I think it'll do big numbers initially, the backlash has truly begun, and the wheels may just start falling off this pop juggernaut. Being vicious about numerous exes may just have run it's course. We'll see. I think it'll do 110, 000 in the UK first week then drop. Everybody at the top has haters it’s normal, I don’t think it’s even close to being at a stage where the negative outweighs the positive

Surprised a critic even dared to say it. A rather bland album and 31 songs of it. No variety at all.

The album itself yeah it’s good to see more than just fawning reviews. Often they pick a Taylor fan to review the album and of course it’s a biased puff piece for supposedly credible outlet. I’ve tried to gage opinions and it’s mixed but 70-80% positive

T This and it's been thr same since the turgid Evermore and Folklore, which felt like astroturf pop versions of indie albums.

Fair enough if you dislike her/the album (I'm a long term stan and admittedly its not my favourite) but please
