October 20, 20177 yr The production is underwhelming here, the lyrics are ok, the cat line is pretty good actually. https://www.theringer.com/music/2017/10/20/...tation-gorgeous
October 20, 20177 yr Yass at the cats line, I heard it and thought, "well, that's Jade sold" :lol: You know me too well :kink: seriously though, I'm impressed on first listen as I was hoping to be! It is like 'Blank Space' but with slightly more interesting production. I am not crazy about the main hook but most of the rest of the lyrics are fab. I would still prefer '...Ready For It?' as the second single but it's definitely a case of 3/3 strong songs.
October 20, 20177 yr I like it but don't love it, it feels like it'll be more of a grower compared to the other two songs that we've heard which I'm glad about. Already #1 on US iTunes and #2 in the UK - I definitely think a top 2 debut officially is on the cards.
October 20, 20177 yr Author 60% lead on US iTunes and 14% away from #1 on UK iTunes! Had this on repeat all day ofc, loving it so much <3
October 20, 20177 yr Not bad! In some places I prefer it to weaker parts of RFI and LWYMMD and in other places I don't.
October 20, 20177 yr is it just me who finds the baby voice at the start SO ANNOYING?! it makes me cringe when the song starts :') apart from that i love this x
October 20, 20177 yr I've listened to it a handful of times and the only thing that gripes on me is the production during the chorus could've been beefed up a little and made the chorus stand out more/make it have more of an impact. I feel like the chorus lends itself well to being belted out!
October 20, 20177 yr This feels like a huge step backwards, I've really been enjoying new Taylor until this :') The lyrics are so cringe
October 20, 20177 yr I like the concept of the song and the overall sound is decent but the lyrics are pretty cringe :( This has a post-album single 'sound' to it imo - I do think it'll be a grower like the majority of you guys have said and it's radio friendly so maybe it will stick around as people are over feisty Taylor.
October 21, 20177 yr So this didn't receive a radio deal in the US which would be very surprising for her second single. I wonder if this is just another promo single and the second single is coming 3/11 maybe? It's not unusual for her to release 4 songs before the album
October 23, 20177 yr After a proper listenthrough, it's not bad but it just feels... lacking. It's like they tried to combine Blank Space with Versace On The Floor (and I LOVE those two songs!) and those two are like water and oil so the resulting output was not gonna be pretty.
October 27, 20177 yr Author Debuted at #15 in the UK *.* really impressed with that tbh <3 Already the same amount of top 15 hits as the 1989 era!!!!
October 30, 20177 yr This is #13 (Taylor's lucky number omgggg) on the Hot 100 and #1 on Digital Songs with 68,000 copies sold - tying Rihanna for the most #1s there with 14 each, although Taylor holds the record for most songs to debut at #1, with 13/14 debuting at the top! :o
