I’m going to listen to the top 3 upvoted albums and give you my honest unfiltered thoughts.

Please explain what makes the album special to you. For context, lyrics are very important to me, so I gravitate to music with good storytelling.

    Red (Taylor’s Version) - Taylor Swift

    It’s hard for me to pick a favorite album because so many of hers have had an impact on me, but Red really is just that album!! It has a beautiful blend of genres (pop, rock, more electronic tracks, country) and it covers every aspect of love — the infatuation, the rose tinted glasses, the hurdles and triumphs and the eventual fallout. Not to mention All Too Well (10 Minute Version) just being an absolute masterpiece of emotional storytelling.

    I choose Taylor’s Version specifically because Red, in a way, is Taylor reclaiming herself from a troubled and not so great relationship (which she at the time perceived as normal) and so the parallel of her now also reclaiming her work just adds another layer to the mix.
