I'm doing good, I'm on some new shit

2021 taylor has such ✨chaotic✨ energy

I should’ve added this to my other posts but like Taylor has been a risk taker every single step of her career yet no one thinks of her like that because her risks always pay off.... she moved to Nashville and placed her bets on a label that wasn’t even really founded yet, she wrote an entire album alone because of criticism, switching to pop was predicted to end her 1M+ first week sales and she was at risk of losing her main audience, writing a letter to Apple Music AND pulling out of Spotify for years didn’t stop her sales or her tours, the Reputation stadium tours slow ticket strategy was predicted to flop yet she sold out every single show, she switched to an indie sound that’s notoriously less played on radio and less consumed yet was the most streamed and best selling artist of the year, she switched to surprise releases instead of strong commercial album rollouts and every single one of these has made her bigger and stronger and the most notable artist of her generation and yet people think she’s some girl who always plays it safe and is backed by big labels. She isn’t, Taylor Swift is the definition of a risk taker

i think the real vocal difference is that on the originals you can tell little baby taylor is having to give it all she’s got full force every take, and adult taylor masters these songs so effortlessly and with so much control and confidence. not that she didn’t sound good before, she just sounds so much more relaxed in reaching that level. like she has nothing to prove, she has come home, she owns it.
