    So Taylor finally released a pop album. She knew what she was doing. It is an album full of amazing tracks. Although she is now a pop artist, her lyrics are still as amazing as it used to be. This is the individuality of Taylor. The most awarded pop album of all time

    THIS IS NOT HER BEST ALBUM PLS I am a hundred percent sure that people love this record cause it contains Taylor's biggest hits like Blank Space, Shake It Off. Of course she went totally pop with that, then most people loved this switch. I have no thoughts about this changing. I just think that people always praise this record and it makes 1989 little bit overrated.

    1989 is one of those pop albums that isn’t just “pop perfection”, which pretty much any Rihanna and/or Lady Gaga -esque album that doesn’t possess the originality gets called these days, but it’s one of the greatest albums of all time. It’s amazing.

    It is a great pop record and definitely has a weight in pop culture. It really predicted a lot of trends like the '80s come back and the minimalism. But it really turns monotonous by the 5th listen. Overall a great album.

    Swift officially enters Pop with a very interesting album. From the way she plays the choruses and bridges to the new sounds produced by the greats Max Martin & Shellback.

    1989年是惊人的纪录。 我绝对喜欢这张专辑。 我已经期望过好了,但是还没达到这个水平。 这是一个流行的杰作。 她不仅带来了流行音乐的原创作品,而且与那里的主流流行音乐无关,而且带来了作品的残酷性。 这张专辑的歌词很好,当您意识到这是一个流行唱片并且没有很多不好的歌词时,它甚至会变得更好。 而且它的制作也很完美。 尽管它可能是流行专辑,但与其他专辑相比还是有很大不同,这使其不具有通用性和创造性。1989年是惊人的纪录。 我绝对喜欢这张专辑。 我已经期望过好了,但是还没达到这个水平。 这是一个流行的杰作。 她不仅带来了流行音乐的原创作品,而且与那里的主流流行音乐无关,而且带来了作品的残酷性。 这张专辑的歌词很好,当您意识到这是一个流行唱片并且没有很多不好的歌词时,它甚至会变得更好。 而且它的制作也很完美。 尽管它可能是流行专辑,但与其他专辑相比还是有很大不同,这使其不具有通用性和创造性。

    Taylor Swift deja de lado la delicadeza del country y por su parte nos trae ahora un lado más frío, bohemio y cohesivo. 1989 es el pop por si mismo. Es agradable. Bueno. No obstante. Sigue careciendo de una escencia o factor mágico. Sigue careciendo de letras que te lleguen realmente. Sin embargo, sencillos como Clean nos muestran que Miss Swift sigue teniendo la el toque lírico de antes.

    2nd: Speak Now & reputation (I can’t decide between them as well)
    3rd: RED
    4th: Fearless
    5th: Self-Titled Album (“Taylor Swift”)
