Review: Taylor Swift's 1989. Lots of Hits and Lots of Misses
2014.11.06
Taylor Swift's new album breaks a new ground, leaves country and also loses her usual sing-a-long signature choruses. With all the hype and news of her selling 1.287 million copies of her album, we decided to do an amateur review.

Sounds like Taylor
Very adventurous
Experimentally interesting.
Am I listening to Avril Lavigne?

Mixing standard Taylor
With ground breaking pop advances
![taylor7.gif taylor7.gif](/files/attach/images/591/446/814/014/taylor7.gif)
A tad like new school indie bands
![taylor8.gif taylor8.gif](/files/attach/images/591/446/814/014/taylor8.gif)
Robotic, and unimaginative.

Mediocre, is at best.

Lacks energy.

Skip.
(Sorry, this one was bad for us.)

3. New Romantics
Retro-soundingA tad like new school indie bands
![taylor8.gif taylor8.gif](/files/attach/images/591/446/814/014/taylor8.gif)
Things start to go downhill from here.
4, Welcome to New York
Beats are retro heavy, you would have thought Debbie Gibson was part of it.Robotic, and unimaginative.

5. Blank Space
Saved me from not listening to the whole album, decided to continue.Mediocre, is at best.
![taylor11.gif taylor11.gif](/files/attach/images/591/446/814/014/taylor11.gif)
6. Style
This is filler music, stuff they use for things people don't care about..![taylor12.gif taylor12.gif](/files/attach/images/591/446/814/014/taylor12.gif)
7. Out of the Woods
Taylor tries to channel her inner Florence and Cher.Lacks energy.
![taylor13.gif taylor13.gif](/files/attach/images/591/446/814/014/taylor13.gif)
8. All you had to do was stay
It's nice, but something about this song, and much like her whole album, doesn't have the usual Taylor touch. I'd forget about this song after listening to it.![taylor14.gif taylor14.gif](/files/attach/images/591/446/814/014/taylor14.gif)
9. Shake it off
Had to listen to it a few times, it's rubbing off on me now.![taylorshake1.gif taylorshake1.gif](/files/attach/images/591/446/814/014/taylorshake1.gif)
10. I wish you would
It's like listening to the lousier, uglier version of her song, similar..![taylor15.gif taylor15.gif](/files/attach/images/591/446/814/014/taylor15.gif)
11. Bad blood
The black sheep of the album.![taylor1.gif taylor1.gif](/files/attach/images/591/446/814/014/taylor1.gif)
12. Wildest dream
My only question, will they use this in Vampire Diaries? If so, best just skip it.![taylor2.gif taylor2.gif](/files/attach/images/591/446/814/014/taylor2.gif)
13. How you get the girl
Is this country, or is this pop? I can't decide.![taylor19891.gif taylor19891.gif](/files/attach/images/591/446/814/014/taylor19891.gif)
14. This Love
Back to Taylor M.O.![taylor19892.gif taylor19892.gif](/files/attach/images/591/446/814/014/taylor19892.gif)
15. I Know Places
Too experimental.Skip.
![taylor19893.gif taylor19893.gif](/files/attach/images/591/446/814/014/taylor19893.gif)
16. Clean
Didn't like this one.Skip.
(Sorry, this one was bad for us.)
![taylorboo1.gif taylorboo1.gif](/files/attach/images/591/446/814/014/taylorboo1.gif)
Too exhausted to continue. I decided to listen to this instead to cleanse my ears.
