So it seems to me that things like tortured poets department and midnight have been more mellow than her previous albums such as 1989 and reputation. Personally, I don't like them as well. They are still good. There's no question about that, but I prefer the more upbeat style she used in reputation, especially.

Edit: Pretty sure my favorite song from Tortured Poets Department is probably "Down Bad".

I agree with the sentiment of others where Midnights is easier to listen to than Tortured Poets. I appreciate TTPD for what it is - an extremely honest album, lyrically powerful, and raw and vulnerable. Definitely felt like Taylor Swift is a real person that I know after listening to it. There’s several standout songs that I enjoyed on that album, primarily because of the lyrics. While some of the songs I love are shared by others here, I’ll also call out “How Did It End?” as a moving song I enjoy.

With that said, I’m stoked for the inevitable Reputation Taylor’s Version. I’m sure I’ll listen to that far more than TTPD.
