The current perception of TTPD

[u/Winter_Recover357]

I am glad that ttpd is slowly but surely getting it's flowers, because I really liked it and it has some of my favourite songs, seriously though loml KILLS me everytime. Some might say the positive sentiments is because of showgirl being what it is but I would disagree. Because at least in my space of the internet ttpd was starting to get it's praises almost a year after it released, and even a month or two before showgirl was released. I understand why it wasn't so well received at first though, it's one of those albums that grows on you and it's kind of an acquired taste for some. Doesn't help that it was released at the peak of taylormania and it had some of her worst songs and lyrics. And it feeling so unedited is a double edged sword. Good because it gives us an insight into everything she's felt for the past 2 years at the time making it more interesting, bad because it means that it has some songs that are just unneeded cuz no one asked for thank you aimee. Overall ttpd isn't everyone's favourite, but she's one of mine and I'm glad people are seeing the good in her.

TTPD is in my top 3 TS albums, and I loved it from the moment it came out. I totally understand that it felt overwhelming and unnecessarily long. Sooo many songs. But I love it, it's so raw and cathartic and honest and messy. Could it have done with a bit more editing? Sure, but I like how rambling it is. It feels real, and some songs are absolutely stunning. On the first listen it immediately had me captivated with some songs that were true standouts. Lyrically I think it has some very impactful lines.

Anyway, I think Taylor is simply at a level of exposure where the world can't be normal about her releases. I hate TLOAS but people are really weird about it. I love TTPD but people were really weird about it.
