I completely disagree. Songs like Blank Space, I Wish You Would, Wildest Dreams, This Love, I Know Places, Wonderland, You Are In Love, New Romantics, etc are all very lyrically strong. Most of the album is.

I think Prism has some strong songs on it lyrically, and I do like it, but overall I thought it was disappointing and not showing Katy's potential as a writer. The majority of the songs didn't have the signature Katy Perry style of writing, they sounded like they could have been anyone's.

1989 is a new sound for Taylor, but the songs still sound like Taylor Swift...they have her signature writing style and her personality injected in all of them. One of the reviews said something along those lines, how it sounds just like Taylor Swift even if it doesn't sound like anything she's done before.

a Perfectly articulate and accurate post

Omg I cackled so hard at this

Anyway wow I'm pretty sure if you hooked a polygraph up to that tweet you'd find not even one lie!

[Vulps]

Is is possible to create anything more "lite" than Katy Perry? The sound of a distant whistle in the air? Or is that too pleasant?

Not gonna lie, when I heard 1989 it did remind me a lot of Prism.

The bolded part is EXACTLY what I think of 1989. It sounds nothing like Taylor, but more like basically everyone else in the pop game. I think thats why I drag 1989 so much is because I used to love how Taylor was so true to herself and had a very specific sound. She didnt give up on country just to sell a few records. Even on Red she kept a lot of artistic integrity....
and then she threw that all out the window on 1989. To me it just feels so fake and insincere in comparison to her past albums. Its something you can feel especially when you listen to all the albums side by side.

If anything 1989 is prism with intelligence.

[ethan]

You guys are so ****ing desperate to blame this tweet on her

As if nobody that she's worked with is allowed to have an opinion. It's GOT to be all from her.

[HyperCrush]

I guess Katy can have the approval of the guys who work for her.

Taylor will just have to settle for the massive sales, critical adoration and love of the GP.

Untrue and quite deluded

I agree, and we know that Taylor had significantly less input on this album (i.e. the Bad Blood demo with chorus and first verse being sent to Katy first and then recorded by Taylor shows that the concept wasn't even really her's) so it makes sense. It's good music, but it does feel very basic, as if anybody could be singing it. I could actually picture Katy singing just about every one of the songs, but definitely not the other way around (Taylor singing Walking on Air or Dark Horse )

Lmaooooo. Team Katy be bitter af.

What are you talking about? almost every song on this album has her unique writing style and flavor. the 'sound' is completely irrelevant considering she's trying a brand new genre obviously that not gonna sound like her since we've never heard songs like that from her

Taylor was so much better years ago. She's gone the basic generic safe pop route. she had so much potential.
