Midnights has the confessional, diaristic elements of Debut, Fearless, and Speak Now; it has the storytelling prowess of Folklore and Evermore; it has the sonic multiplicity of Red; it has the synth-laden bops of 1989 and Lover...
Perhaps one of the most heartbreaking verses on is not a breakup song, but a song about Taylor's own self-reflection and trauma. In the crushing"You're On Your Own, Kid" bridge, Taylor sings,"From sprinkler splashes to fireplace ashes / I gave my blood, sweat, and tears for this / I hosted parties and starved my body / Like I'd be saved by a perfect kiss."
In"Maroon," she sang,"And I wake with your memory over me / That's a real fuckin' legacy to leave." And in"Karma," the 11-time Grammy winner sings,"Ask me why so many fade but I'm still here." There's an impressive level of freshness to the album.doesn't sound stale. It blends Taylor's strengths without giving you the 2.0 version of a previous album.
You'd think by now, Taylor would have more than two-fold covered the spectrum of emotions in her releases. But she's tapped into other parts of her psyche, and that seems to be the point of as a whole. In songs like,"Anti-Hero," Taylor tackles self-loathing."I'll stare directly in the sun, but never in the mirror," she sings in an almost amicable tone — almost making the listener forget this is a pretty deep self-discovery.
Taylor doesn't need to pander to TikTok or YouTube Shorts or any of the emerging media forms of 2022. But this album does — and it's truly impressive. With clever earworm songs like"Bejeweled" and"Question...?" you know the Gen Zers are gonna eat this shit up. It's too good, too catchy, and too smart not to. As simple as it sounds, the music is just good. The songs are well written, quintessential Taylor Swift pure genius.
