Taylor Swift and her The Tortured Poets Department album often overexplain themselves, but that doesn’t mean they have no teeth.
In this review, senior culture editor P. Claire Dodson explores Taylor Swift’s The Tortured Poets Department album. A monstrous Taylor Swift lurches toward your favorite city — that tortured poet, that sly mastermind. She has “leapt from the gallows” just to “levitate down your street,” chin tilted down, eyes slitted, cold smirk. This is not the Swift wearing a patriotic red Chiefs jacket cheering on Travis Kelce, nor the smiling, golden-haired Eras Tour empress.
But who are we to judge? She’s an unreliable narrator and acknowledges as much, but who isn’t? Only… okay, she sees your point. By the time we get to “I Can Fix Him ” she’s admitting that his jokes are “revolting” and he tells them too loudly. And that’s when we get the truly tortured “loml,” one of her best ballads about lost love to date. The third act twist is that “love” turns to “loss,” and the love of your life becomes “mr. steal your girl and make her cry.
