Usually I would do a twitch stream but this time around I think I'm going to do a thread and that way we can all post our initial thoughts while we're listening together.

On that note, I'm going to watch the video first than listen to the album in whole!
ALSO Jack Antonoff posted some lyrics from what I presume is the song Gold Rush. His story said "what must it be like to grow up that beautiful? gggooollldddrrruuussshhh" so that is our first taste if the album I suppose

So apparently Dawsons Creek and The Office have been Taylor's quarantine shows!

Easter eggs: You’ve seen my co-star in this video somewhere before. One scene represents how I feel about fame. There’s a scene to represent each season throughout the journey of the video

one I did catch is that apparently happiness and champagne problems are both deceptive titles and happiness isn't happy and champagne problems isn't bubbly

Jack’s favorite is gold rush. Which takes place inside a single daydream where you get lost in thought for a minute and then snap out of it.

Stella is trustworthy & so creative. I told her I had a secret project & she designed clothes that were EXACTLY what I imagined. I drove to her office, picked them up & took them into the woods!!

The album has already dropped on Apple Music! I'm waiting for the video though! Here's the blurb on iTunes
Surprise-dropping a career-redefining album in the midst of a paralysing global pandemic is an admirable flex; doing it again barely five months later is a display of confidence and concentration so audacious that you’re within your rights to feel personally chastised. Like folklore, evermore is a team-up with Aaron Dessner, Jack Antonoff and Justin Vernon, making the most of cosy home-studio vibes for more bare-bones arrangements and bared-soul lyrics, casually intimate and narratively rich.
There is an expanded guest roster here—HAIM appear on “no body, no crime”, which seems to place Este Haim in the centre of a small-town murder mystery, while Dessner’s bandmates in The National are on “coney island”—but they fit themselves into the mood rather than distract from it. (The percussive “long story short” sounds like it could have been on any National album in the past decade.) Elsewhere, “'tis the damn season” is the elegaic home-for-the-holidays ballad this busted year didn’t realise it needed. But while so much of folklore’s appeal involved marvelling at how this setting seemed to have unlocked something in Swift, the only real shock here is the timing of the release itself. Beyond that, it’s an extension and confirmation of its predecessor’s promises and charms, less a novelty driven by unprecedented circumstances and instead simply a thing she happens to do and do well.

There’s a scene in the video that represents the song seven, one that represents mirrorball, one for exile, and one for mad woman.

I am as excited as Benjamin is when I shake a bag of treats from across the house.
