Boswell:
I got the same kind of nonsense in my brief time I was over there recently about Billie Eilish. You're not allowed to enjoy a female artist. You must be horny for them.

You'd think cowriting most of an album with The National would give her some cred over there. Oops... they recorded music after 1974.
How hard is it to ignore music you aren't interested in?

[/b] If you are a SHite, it’s impossible. The world is licking its lips waiting for your opinion on pop music that isn’t for you and that you’re predisposed to dislike anyway. And it’s impossible for them to accept people like music different from what they like. It’s those others who must be wrong and must be told they are wrong.

Parachute Woman needs a fucking gold medal for wading through that cesspool of sexist old farts.
The only fucking reason Swift songs have like 8 writers is so nobody adding a chord or drum part can sue her. It ain't like 1964 anymore. She's covering her ass so nobody comes back to bite off some cash down the line.

I've never paid much attention to her music before but this album has some really great stuff on it.

A vast chunk of tracks do have more than one writer credited though. Maybe not 8 writers though lol. My point stands with the reason though, if Max Martin or whoever adds something, they are getting a song-writing credit. People cannot deny she doesn't write those songs though - it's obvious she writes them, and nobody has ever denied her talent aside from random people shitting on her.

Oh, and I just want to point out that Boswell is a Motley Crue worshiper. As a lifelong KISS fan myself it's hardly my place to be judging anyone's terrible taste, but for this guy to be talking about awful singers and and mediocrity and getting off high horses...come on. You love the Crue! Shut the fuck up.

Despite not being a fan I am listening to it now during lunch. Always have to educate yourself when it comes to music. It's pleasant enough. Thankfully so far there's no vapid "never ever ever ever ever ever" nonsense.
I'm not a fan of The National so that might not help me. A lot of the songs are just a little monotonous. But it's certainly better than Egypt fucking Station!

I actually thought about listening to it until I discovered the National connection. God damn I hate their pretentious grad student horseshit music.

Shitetown being what it is some people on the right side in a particular thread are still assholes elsewhere. Spencer R for example. He's on the right side in the Taylor thread but oh my god is that guy an annoying prick.
