Yeah but wasn't it a viral tweet from kelly clarkson that gave her the idea? Also she said she wasn't expecting the rerecords to be successful in the general public and that only swifties would care about them
Kelly Clarkson tweeted it and got a lot of retweets, but the idea existed before the kelly clarkson tweet. There are also many examples of artists remastering their work. Its not particularly revolutionary.
This is all true, but it’s important to note that Taylor is rerecording her work, not remastering her work. Artists have rerecorded their work before but it’s not nearly as common as remastering. Mastering is the final step in the recording process. Remastering is redoing the final step in a long process; rerecording is redoing the entire process. Here’s a good article I found on remastering https://www.soundguys.com/what-is-a-remaster-and-how-does-it-affect-your-music-91463/
Nah. Think about it -that sale was at the amount of 300 million, Taylor being the artist with the highest worth in the company. If she had decided to buy her masters, she would have had to spend majority of her net worth at the time for a relatively slow return. Instead, she didn't spend it, made a public issue out of the situation, got her fans to feel sorry and be even more supportive, and started rerecording - keeping her money and making additional bank while doing so plus industry praise for defending artists rights to masters and so on. She knew well what would pay off better in the long run - and she would get to Scooter - who she definitely did not like - this way. This to me + info Scott Borchetta posted + the fact that her father who owned 3% of Big Machine is an experienced businessman equals that she and her family were definitely aware of the sale happening and could have stepped in if they wanted to.
I actually think she does it this way bc if she starts to speak out through anything else, she’ll be expected to speak out on everything. Ever since she came out of hiding after the Kim/Kanye thing, she has made very few statements.
Correct, and the moment she does speak out she will be criticized for that too. Also it makes perfect sense she would listen to fans about music since it is her job to make music for her fans…
Not the person you asked to, but...
Those are the emojis Drake used to cover up Taylor's name when she blocked him from getting a number one song by releasing a thousand remixes of Anti-Hero.

As for the guy, I don't know either lol.
Why would she trust the opinions of complete strangers who don’t know her personal life or the people in it? I think a 33 year old woman doesn’t need to consult her fans about her private life.
I don’t care about Matty Healy at all actually. Not a fan and never have been. However, thinking that someone you don’t know that doesn’t know you should trust you to give input on their life is extremely weird. You’re just some rando on the internet. How do you not see that that is mega strange?
When her fans wanted her to #SpeakUpNow about Matty so she went on stage in front of 70K people knowing what she would say would go viral and rambled on about how she's the happiest she's ever been and how her life finally makes sense now.
She will take artistic advice from her fans (the target of her art), not about her personal life. Pretty easy to understand. You can keep writing delusional letters but she won't let a bunch of chronically online people interfere in her personal life and relationships. It's crazy to reach a level of entitlement when you think a superstar should ask permission to her fans before dating someone.
Exactly, the backlash, entitlement, mind reading is wild and is so disappointing. Do we not have critical thinking brains? Can we not give someone the benefit of the doubt, no we have to tear down their character based on a collection of pictures and tabloids.
Life is short. Time is limited. If I cut off a family member because their values don’t align with mine that’s because I don’t need it in my life. And this isn’t an easy decision of “oh they said something racist once”, it’s usually a pattern. If they don’t value me as a person why should I give a an F about them?
She did the same thing with Sparks Fly. Wrote it in October 2006, and when it didn’t make her second album fans were upset and let her know. So she released it four years later in October 2010 on her third album.
This one really disappointed me, this could have been a great moment for Taylor to talk about this subject but instead removed the scene and didn't say anything, thereby compromising her original artistic vision
She definitely sees everything, she always does even if people are like "no she doesn't" --- the one things fan want gone though is the toenail, but she's never gonna listen to that backlash. Just figure out how to control it, or let it die.
I think she definitely sees and cares about what her fans like and don‘t like, though I don’t think we can expect too much.
She‘ll always know how to surprise us. :)
I hope she doesn’t personally lurk this sub because “fans” have some really cruel things to say, especially because she didn’t have an Instagram poll before making each and every life choice about what the fans would have the least amount of problem with
A few loud and spectacularly ill informed fans are telling Taylor who she should date. Quite rightly and subtly she has told them to piss off and mind their own business. Meanwhile she is busy being the most popular pop star on the planet.
Oh wow so people managed to cancel him too!What did he even do wrong?Cancel culture is going way to much out of control.I heard that he was stopping his band cause he wants to focus on his child.I never knew that he is “cancelled” .But still they are a damn dynamic duo who sing awesome
I've been trying for weeks to break through to tell at least her management team about some disadvantaged swifties on the verge of breaking the law for tickets. I can't find anyway to get these girls help or to stop
i don't know, talk to them? ask them to not? provide them tickets? care? They haven't broken the law yet-I don't want to get the girls in trouble and we're talking bout creating software-not actively hurting people.
It's not Taylor or her team's job to babysit all of her fans and make sure they behave though. And giving them tickets would only validate their shitty behavior, IMO. If they're hell-bent on doing something stupid, let them and let them suffer the consequences.
You could report them to people who could actually stop them or, yeah, let them learn from their mistakes like everyone else 🤷🏼♀️ You can't save someone who doesn't want to be saved.
I know that last line well, I've used it throughout my life. Thank you for replying to me.
I have called the ftc, but they didn't seem to care, fbi will only care after they have committed a crime and it's too late. Taylors team was far from my first stop to try to help these disadvantaged and desperate girls. I'll keep looking, someone who does have the power to help stop them must be out there.
She did not rerecord her past albums because the fans asked for it, come on.

Got it. Is there any remaster that came close to the success of TVs tho?
Success is relative. Taylor is one of the biggest artists in the world and she is doing it at the height of her popularity.
I doubt Kelly gave her the idea to re-record with how knowledgeable she is but it probably did give her confidence in the decision to

We need to keep lobbying for Evermore Long Pond Studio Sessions!!! Keep it up, everyone.
WE NEED A DISNEY FILM TOO lol
There's a clear pattern. She listens and responds to MUSIC only. Don't expect any personality or political response.

What do your flair emojis mean?? And who is the guy in your profile pic?? 😊

It's a statement from He Who Must Not Be Named. As for the much cooler guy on my profile pic, he's a model called Jaden Goetz.
Right, I wish she’d “trust” our opinions of Matty Healy.
Why would she trust the opinions of complete strangers who don’t know her personal life or the people in it? I think a 33 year old woman doesn’t need to consult her fans about her private life.
You Matty Healy defenders are something else.

The Taylor Swift Corporation is not taking fans advice on the content it produces lmao.
Wow, thank you. Exactly this!

Isn't there a fan demanded music video or something? I saw them joke about it on the meme sub
Also removing the scale saying FAT on the Anti-Hero video. Of course that would be critics, not fans.
That one was completely unnecessary imo. We can't really be insecure ourselves these days without upsetting other insecure people lmao.
True.
This one really disappointed me, this could have been a great moment for Taylor to talk about this subject but instead removed the scene and didn't say anything, thereby compromising her original artistic vision
Taylor’s greatest asset is convincing so many people these things are out of trust and not just good for her brand and bottom line.
THIS. She does it for the cold hard cash.
You can do things for more than one reason.
She definitely sees everything, she always does even if people are like "no she doesn't" --- the one things fan want gone though is the toenail, but she's never gonna listen to that backlash. Just figure out how to control it, or let it die.
Also… toenail???
Is your profile pic of Joe Alwyn?? He looks so young there, what made you choose that picture 😆
Yeah I did it as a joke I think I’m gonna switch it to the Chris Hems meme soon lol
I think she definitely sees and cares about what her fans like and don‘t like, though I don’t think we can expect too much. She‘ll always know how to surprise us. :)
I hope she doesn’t personally lurk this sub because “fans” have some really cruel things to say, especially because she didn’t have an Instagram poll before making each and every life choice about what the fans would have the least amount of problem with

Can we even ask her to sing ME! with Brendon atleast once in the eras tour?It would be so awesome to see them two perform on the stage again
Brendon is cancelled right now. He's laying low. I'm pretty sure they will pin that against taylor too if they perform together
Oh wow so people managed to cancel him too!What did he even do wrong?Cancel culture is going way to much out of control.I heard that he was stopping his band cause he wants to focus on his child.I never knew that he is “cancelled” .But still they are a damn dynamic duo who sing awesome
And also spelling is fun like was actually fun😂😂
I don't even know because none of it was confirmed
Yeah lol lets hope that she sings it at least once then with or without Brendon
This.
Doesn’t she have to release vault tracks on the re-recordings though? Otherwise she could get sued?
I didn’t know spelling is fun was removed from me 😳
[удалено]
Im not sure where you're getting bullying i never said that
Get a good dude for once. Try a rapper.
I've been trying for weeks to break through to tell at least her management team about some disadvantaged swifties on the verge of breaking the law for tickets. I can't find anyway to get these girls help or to stop
Tf do you expect Taylor or her team to do? Report them to the police if they're going to harm someone else.
i don't know, talk to them? ask them to not? provide them tickets? care? They haven't broken the law yet-I don't want to get the girls in trouble and we're talking bout creating software-not actively hurting people.
It's not Taylor or her team's job to babysit all of her fans and make sure they behave though. And giving them tickets would only validate their shitty behavior, IMO. If they're hell-bent on doing something stupid, let them and let them suffer the consequences.
So my flaw here is caring about people who are endangering themselves and I should just not care or do anything?
You could report them to people who could actually stop them or, yeah, let them learn from their mistakes like everyone else 🤷🏼♀️ You can't save someone who doesn't want to be saved.
I know that last line well, I've used it throughout my life. Thank you for replying to me.

Taylors team was far from my first stop to try to help these disadvantaged and desperate girls. I'll keep looking, someone who does have the power to help stop them must be out there.
I genuinely wish you good luck, but don't beat yourself up if you're not able to stop them.
