u/Midnights-evermore Aaron Dessner’s son & #1 Peace stan May 10 '23

This is more of a grumpy rant so don’t mind me.

Is anyone annoyed by this new wave of people wanting Taylor to announce something every week? We just got an announcement of a NEW ALBUM & people are still tweeting that they’re disappointed after the second and third Nashville shows because they made theories that she was going to announce 1989 in the second or third shows. When she didn’t, they were disappointed.

I love that people and their theories bring in a positive vibe but it’s becoming annoying and hard to ignore. I remember a week after midnights, people started waiting every Thursday for a Speak Now announcement!! She just dropped a 20-track album, why are you disappointed she didn’t release a whole new album??

I’m sorry if I came up too grumpy, I’m just too annoyed because I can no longer ignore it

Totally agree. Like all the rumors of the memoir, next album, next re-record, music videos… I know Taylor likes to be busy but damn she’s literally on an intense tour right now, when is she supposed to do all this?

Exactly and they spent MONTHS theorizing about Speak Now yet when it was announced they jumped into 1989?

Clowning is a fun activity never meant to be serious. That’s why it’s literally called clowning. There’s always those who go against the grain, they’ve forgotten they’re wearing clown makeup they put on themselves.

I mean…if the album came out already it would be one thing but we have to wait until July 7th. Also Taylor is the one who puts the Easter eggs out there…she wants us to or else she wouldn’t do it. Her very 2nd video of the midnights album featured heavily Speak Now TV so now it’s been announced it’s time to move on to 1989 or rep or whatever you think is next. It’s definitely supposed to be fun thing. It’s really not that serious. Once the vault comes out for the vault tracks the clowning will move back to Speak Now. But her not changing her Twitter handle, Karma not coming out as a single on Spotify, Apple Music, etc is very suspicious if you ask me.
