    Just the same as all the albums that she had.
    I think that its always the same type of music, she can change that and do something different.

    The entire album can be characterized as someone attempting to reach the word count on a high school essay, and then patting their back once they've reached it, neglecting to actually reread the essay upon completion.

    Some tracks sound unfinished, and most sound boring. While others may have interesting motifs ('Midnight Rain'), they don't go anywhere sonically, ultimately resulting in an unsatisfied listen.

    The 3 am edition, although some better than the 13 original tracks (and this isn't really saying much!), are monotonous compared to the rest of her discography.

    Her worst album to date. There are no highs and only lows. Please, go back to the punchy and reflective pop of 1989.

We might find in Swift's artistry some semblance of the ideas set forth o long ago, forgotten by our modern critical sentiments, only to be reusrrected by a genius of such repute as to be beyond all impeachment, criticiazem, or reproach; Swift has procen herself once again to be a gods amonst montrals in the field of music making in the moder erna. Let this stand for lla time as a memorial of our generation - of our common hopes, dreams, aspirations, frustrations, ad yes, our very souls and spirits. The zeitgesit of the modern era wil be inexoribly and illimitably changed and shaped by this, Ms. Swift's greatest achievement to date.

    For all of that, the album still sux.

    It’s just so basic. It sounds like a mixture of folklore, lover, and reputation. Productions are not the best, and it makes it a bit boring. The lyrics and vocals are bot as good as folklore and evermore, but yet they’re still acceptable. Unfortunately, It just didn’t meet my high expectations for it…

    There is literary nothing new on the album. It sounds like discarded songs on her last albums. Lyrically it's not able to do a good job of painting the Midnights the way she promoted it.

    For me, Midnights is a very disappointing project, filled with juvenile lyrics and boring instrumentation. I’m debating whether or not i should listen to the deluxe but at the same time, this is supposed to be a concept album about 13 SLEEPLESS NIGHTS. THIS IS 20 SONGS.

Don’t even get me started on the Lana Del Rey collab, Snow On The Beach. What the biggest disappointment so far is the fact that Lana doesn’t get a verse or a bridge on this song, something that would help give a standout hit in the album. But if course it’s going to be commercially successful because it’s Taylor Swift. In general, this album is one of her weakest and just cannot compare to the maturity of folklore. If you like the album or if it’s grown on you, good for you i guess.

    I hope Jack Antanoff doesn’t touch a Lana album ever again after this project.

    “midnights” has nothing to do with all that.

    It allows Swift to do what she has always wanted: make an album for its own sake that is received primarily as a work of art instead of a commercial entity or tabloid fodder.
