Because Wonderland is a complete carbon copy of Pearl

They want to somehow justify her success...

I don't see it at all. They are completely different sonically and lyrically.

Because they want to make katy seem bigger than she is.

It's a much better pop album than td and that is a fact

Because it is.

Welcome to NY & Bad Blood sound like Katy Perry songs, that's why

Taylor always had much bigger success than Katy tho so just because it was successful doesn't mean they're the same

But yes, you are right. They're not the same.

It's pretty clear to an unbiased listener how similar "Style" is to "Teenage Dream" and Taylor's not slick for running to Max Martin.

Of course Katy isn't the only/biggest influence, but you have to be a seriously dedicated hater to say that she didn't have impact on the project.

No I'm not?

Katy had more impact on her marketing campaign than her music tbh.

Another typical sweet pop album; I could see why.

1989 is an exquisite pop album,very acclaimed, praised by everyone,extremely successful and possibly an album that will be remembered as one of the best from this decade. I don't see it either .Maybe kats think some songs sound similar?

Style sounds nothing like Teenage Dream & Katy is not the only one who worked with Max Martin

Max is a POP LEGEND anyone who wants hits in pop goes to him

Because it is

Cause

Because according to you guys Taylor is destroying Katy in her own field, so make up your minds. These kind of threads make y'all seem psychotic/bipolar, no offense.

People on this site don't listen to much music. They have very few reference points to compare albums to.

That said they do have the same goals and both strive for the same general vibe, if not overall sound. They also both feature a lot of work with Max Martin.

I think people might just be trying find something to chalk 1989's general inferiority to, and the cliche that "sequels are never as good as the original" is a fitting enough explanation for them.

LiEs! You are Pearl
