So I just listened 8 00:00:30,840 --> 00:00:33,519 Speaker 1: to the brand new album and I'm gonna share with 9 00:00:33,560 --> 00:00:36,839 Speaker 1: you my thoughts, play you some snippits, give you the 10 00:00:36,840 --> 00:00:40,080 Speaker 1: full New Music Friday breakdown as quickly and easy as possible. 11 00:00:40,479 --> 00:00:42,479 Speaker 1: I know everybody out there is not as swifty and 12 00:00:42,479 --> 00:00:44,720 Speaker 1: you're tired of hearing Taylor Swift content. It's fair, I 13 00:00:44,760 --> 00:00:49,199 Speaker 1: totally understand. So I'm gonna make this a version of 14 00:00:49,240 --> 00:00:52,519 Speaker 1: New Music Friday that everybody can love. Diehard fan or 15 00:00:52,560 --> 00:00:55,120 Speaker 1: simple fan, or not a fan at all. Okay, check 16 00:00:55,160 --> 00:00:56,960 Speaker 1: on your wives, check on your girlfriends, check on your 17 00:00:56,960 --> 00:01:00,160 Speaker 1: best friends, because us Swifties that you guys have to 18 00:01:00,160 --> 00:01:02,400 Speaker 1: take care of. We're going through it. This is our 19 00:01:02,400 --> 00:01:05,759 Speaker 1: weekend and this album is insane. So without further ado, 20 00:01:05,760 --> 00:01:09,360 Speaker 1: I'll start right now, starting off strong with the fate 21 00:01:09,400 --> 00:01:13,240 Speaker 1: of Ophelia. She says, took my heart out of the 22 00:01:13,319 --> 00:01:17,880 Speaker 1: grave and saved me from the fate of Ophelia. I'm 23 00:01:17,920 --> 00:01:21,319 Speaker 1: a big fan of Hamlet. I read Hamlet twice, once 24 00:01:21,360 --> 00:01:25,119 Speaker 1: in high school and once in college. I think that 25 00:01:25,400 --> 00:01:29,600 Speaker 1: play alone is what Shakespeare is all about for those 26 00:01:29,640 --> 00:01:35,560 Speaker 1: Shakespearean people out there. The album's been out maybe an 27 00:01:35,600 --> 00:01:39,000 Speaker 1: hour at the time of this recording, and that song's 28 00:01:39,000 --> 00:01:41,480 Speaker 1: already trending on TikTok, so expect to hear it on 29 00:01:41,520 --> 00:01:45,440 Speaker 1: the radio, expect to see it online. The Fate of 30 00:01:45,480 --> 00:01:49,120 Speaker 1: Ophelia is the it Girl. Some other notable lines from 31 00:01:49,160 --> 00:01:52,840 Speaker 1: the album that got my attention. Next up, Elizabeth Taylor, 32 00:01:53,240 --> 00:01:56,440 Speaker 1: the girl who has everything but also nothing all at once, 33 00:01:57,320 --> 00:02:02,440 Speaker 1: go off, Queen skipping down. I have to mention wish list. 34 00:02:03,080 --> 00:02:08,720 Speaker 1: Wish list is about the industry. She complains, she grieves, 35 00:02:09,400 --> 00:02:12,520 Speaker 1: she loves, she says, she wants kids. 36 00:02:12,800 --> 00:02:27,040 Speaker 2: Hello. 37 00:02:22,560 --> 00:02:30,800 Speaker 1: Wish list is about thinking of settling down. This is 38 00:02:31,000 --> 00:02:34,840 Speaker 1: my song because it's not only catchy, but it's something 39 00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:38,440 Speaker 1: I can relate to. Getting lost in a person or 40 00:02:38,520 --> 00:02:43,080 Speaker 1: people or friend groups even and nothing else matters because 41 00:02:43,080 --> 00:02:45,440 Speaker 1: you're in love or because you're You're in that moment, 42 00:02:46,160 --> 00:02:50,079 Speaker 1: Your your your career doesn't matter, You're what people think 43 00:02:50,080 --> 00:02:52,760 Speaker 1: of you doesn't matter. You're just so lost in the 44 00:02:52,880 --> 00:02:56,560 Speaker 1: essence of it all. Nothing else matters when you're in love. 45 00:02:56,919 --> 00:02:59,560 Speaker 1: But it's especially hard right when the guy is Travis 46 00:02:59,639 --> 00:03:02,800 Speaker 1: Kelcey and this guy treats you well and you guys 47 00:03:02,800 --> 00:03:05,880 Speaker 1: really jibe together. And for Taylor, this could be endgame 48 00:03:05,960 --> 00:03:09,239 Speaker 1: this time for real, and it's it's crazy to think about. 49 00:03:09,320 --> 00:03:12,440 Speaker 1: It's a lot to process. And wish List is the 50 00:03:12,520 --> 00:03:16,080 Speaker 1: song about her processing it all. It's fun, it's catchy, 51 00:03:16,240 --> 00:03:18,600 Speaker 1: and it's a it's a look into her life, and 52 00:03:18,639 --> 00:03:20,400 Speaker 1: I feel like it's something we can all relate to 53 00:03:20,520 --> 00:03:23,200 Speaker 1: in our own different ways. Ten out of ten, Ten 54 00:03:23,360 --> 00:03:25,320 Speaker 1: out of ten. That is going to be repeat for me. 55 00:03:25,560 --> 00:03:30,000 Speaker 3: Forgive me it sounds cocky, tells me and open my eyes. 56 00:03:30,160 --> 00:03:32,679 Speaker 3: That would treat it ain't hard to see his love 57 00:03:32,880 --> 00:03:33,720 Speaker 3: was the key. 58 00:03:33,480 --> 00:03:37,600 Speaker 1: That opened allan wood. She says, love was the key 59 00:03:38,240 --> 00:03:42,520 Speaker 1: that opened my thighs, which I think is very Sabrina core. 60 00:03:43,360 --> 00:03:47,720 Speaker 1: What a scandalous lyric from Miss Taylor Swift, as if 61 00:03:47,760 --> 00:03:50,120 Speaker 1: she hasn't been cursing in her last what six seven 62 00:03:50,160 --> 00:03:54,920 Speaker 1: albums Now. But speaking of Sabrina, let's talk about life 63 00:03:54,960 --> 00:03:58,960 Speaker 1: of a showgirl. The title track featuring Sabrina Carpenter. Their 64 00:03:59,040 --> 00:04:01,920 Speaker 1: voice is really well together. I thought it would be 65 00:04:01,960 --> 00:04:05,200 Speaker 1: a Sabrina cutaway verse, but instead they balanced off each 66 00:04:05,200 --> 00:04:09,560 Speaker 1: other and it wrapped the album up at the end beautifully. 67 00:04:09,880 --> 00:04:14,880 Speaker 1: They're harmonizing their telling a story and finishing a story, 68 00:04:15,840 --> 00:04:18,760 Speaker 1: and I just think it was a perfect album closer. 69 00:04:19,920 --> 00:04:23,360 Speaker 1: I really enjoyed this album. Now, before I go and 70 00:04:23,680 --> 00:04:27,560 Speaker 1: send you back to the studio, here are some honorable mentions, 71 00:04:28,440 --> 00:04:30,880 Speaker 1: starting off with ruin the friendship. 72 00:04:31,680 --> 00:04:34,680 Speaker 3: I left school, I lost track of you, and I'm 73 00:04:34,720 --> 00:04:38,760 Speaker 3: a girl called you with the bad news goodbye. 74 00:04:39,320 --> 00:04:40,400 Speaker 1: And we'll never know. 75 00:04:42,680 --> 00:04:43,560 Speaker 2: It was not. 76 00:04:45,360 --> 00:04:54,640 Speaker 3: At home anyway, It was so much love to say it. 77 00:04:57,560 --> 00:05:01,360 Speaker 2: Co Whisper. 78 00:05:04,480 --> 00:05:09,080 Speaker 1: Anyway, Abigail is mentioned and ruined the friendship.
