They’re definitely not my favourite of her songs! Although Life of a Showgirl has never really been my cup of tea. They’re okay to listen to (and have been regular earworms since I heard them) but much like the rest of the album, I can’t see myself going out of the way to listen to it!

I really quite like Taylor Swift and don’t get the hate she gets but this new stuff is not really for me. But I do think she’s very good in general.

I know I’m not exactly her target audience - but I’ve always found Taylor Swift’s music a little underwhelming

I have tremendous respect for what Taylor Swift has achieved, but I think she is at a bit of a crossroads. Diehard fans will clearly love this new stuff, but critical response is mixed to negative - the bonus material is of little consequence, and a lot of the themes overall are just covering old ground. Probably needs to regroup and rethink.

Still annoyed at them for installing that album in everyone’s phone a few years ago 😂

Clearly a good band to have such longevity but I just cannot stand them or the music they make, for some reason. Just not my cup of tea at all.

No code for us once again 👎🏻

Nothing so far… not looking promising

donaghcorby19979d ago

Didn’t bother. Not worth the hassle

Ahhhh there have been some good ones. Green Day and The Smashing Pumpkins in Philadelphia 2023 was a worldie and John Mayer in Dublin 2024. I also went to The 1975’s famous 2022 gig at MSG that was recorded. A few crackers

One that stands out for me is seeing Macklemore at Deaf Institute in Manchester. It was just before he released Thrift Shop, so it was a tiny venue. I don’t think anyone there expected he’d explode just after, but he was brilliant. He did a signing afterwards and randomly all I had was a dollar in my pocket, so he signed that

Not my story, but my brother remarkably got tickets to a last minute secret last minute Prince concert in 2014. Love the idea of just getting last minute tickets in a small venue for a superstar.

Westlife are so good. But maybe best when Brian was around?

I’m throwing The Corrs into the mix. We went to see them last year and they were sooo good! Also they shouldn’t be on the top list but we can’t forget B*Witched and their classic C’est La Vie 💃💃💃

In terms of newer artists, Kojaque and Kean Kavanagh are doing great things as per, and keep an eye out for Joshua Burnside, brought out a fantastic album this year

dale.odonnell11d ago

Aretha Franklin 🙌🏼 If you want some modern northern soul, from another queen albeit one originating from Scotland, check out the fantastic Brooke Combe. She’s going to be a star.

Wildcard pick - some flashy new 80s tv show - or possibly Rivals season 3 - catapults Donna Summer into the charts 😂

sherlock_b12d ago

Yes … she was one of the greats… I think I can just remember her 👀🤔😉

This latest announcement is not feeling like Reputation or Debut TV 🥴

callum_boyle18d ago

She knows the marketing game, she’ll keep people on strings as long as possible and fans will be there no matter what. She does like dropping news out of nowhere too so fully expect that

brook01018d ago

Surely we’ve got to get a Debut TV at some point? SURELY?! I aren’t even that bothered about Reputation 🐍 in comparison, just skip to debut please 😂
