NicoleF Ranks 2020 Albums - #29

Jan 22, 2021 by NicoleF
Since I had so much time in quarantine, I listened to way more projects than usual, 40 to be exact. Most are albums, but there's 2 or 3 EPs in there so I thought it'd be fun to rank them!

#29 is.......evermore - Taylor Swift

Highlights - I've already talked about both of them in my 2020 song ranking, but no body, no crime and gold rush are definitely the highlights. no body, no crime literally has so much potential to just grow and grow as time goes on. It's very bad bitch country that I'd expect from, like, Carrie Underwood, but I love it coming from Taylor! It's so catchy and I still get chills when the plot twist is revealed that Taylor killed the woman! Queen shit! gold rush is the biggest grower so far for me, though. I always liked it, but I was hesitant on loving it cause I felt it kept growing to a huge climax that never came, which underwhelmed me. I still feel that way, but it's actually okay having that feel cause it shockingly works when I'm not listening deeply and it kinda gives me shades of old Taylor which is fun.

Lowlights - I have a hard time trusting men in Taylor's music. It's very rare that I love a male feature on a Taylor song. Taylor is good in coney island...nothing out of this world, but she gets the job done. That man though....I hate him whoever he is. I've never heard of him before but he completely ruins the song. marjorie is completely Taylor's fault, though. It just doesn't work for me whatsoever. The production just doesn't come together for me and the lyrics don't click for me. It's kind of boring to be completely honest. I know it's a tribute to her grandma, but the chorus is just...no. The worst song on this album, though, and honestly top 10 worst songs I've heard in 2020 (sorry, not sorry) is closure. Like why....WHY!? The production gives me a headache...and I'm not joking like it literally physically has given me a headache before. It's so chaotic and distracting and makes no sense and just completely ruins the song. Like honestly, I can barely even focus on the lyrics or the vocals because the production is THAT distracting. It's actually some of the worst production I've ever heard. The piano, which is probably the best non-vocal element of the song, is still horrible cause it just feels completely rushed and makes me anxious as fuck. The background production is just horrid though. Even looking at the lyrics, though, it's nothing special. I know a ton of my friends praise this album, but I said it on my initial listen and I'll say it again now: evermore is just a bunch of folklore rejects. folklore is 58743928 times better than evermore. Honestly...this is probably my least favorite Taylor album.
