so corny smh, there’s nothing wrong with criticism taylor !

post it again tbh

meat munching too hard

While I generally prefer the second disc, I don’t know if the second side has the strength to standalone as an album. I think the best decision would have been to combine the best of disc 1 and disc 2 into a more condensed record. Jack has a few good songs on here, but nearly all of the standouts come from Aaron.

Damn

Rolling Stone didn't used to hand out 5 stars like that.. what happened?

Any Swiftie down to PayPal me $100 so i can listen to it?

Sheffield is a well-known Swiftie, lol.

then literally what's the point

I'm not affiliated with Rolling Stone in any shape or form, so.

I have no idea.

Conclusion: the lower the score and more credible the outlet, relatively

27. Pitchfork: 63/100
28. New Musical Express (NME): 60/100
29. The New York Times: 60/100
30. The Scotsman: 60/100

32. Sputnikmusic: 49/100
33. Evening Standard: 40/100
34. Exclaim!: 40/100
35. Paste Magazine: 36/100

Indeed, the Paste review is truly a goldmine.

Fantano will give it a 8, because he have this gimmick of opposing Pitchfork scores

By the way, some of those are averages; for instance, Sputnikmusic has published three separate reviews thus far, and scored the album as follows: 1/10, 4.8/10, and 9/10.
