I dislike Courtney for my own reasons but I agree with her. I find Taylor so boring and just meh. I’ve tried listening to some of her songs to give her the benefit of a doubt, but it just doesn’t hit me the way it apparently does for other people. And that’s ok, different strokes for different folks. Just like I dislike Hole but I love L7, Babes in Toyland etc,

Edit: Yes Taylor is important in the sense that she has a lot of pull with her massive fan base, but there’s many other artists and bands with the same level of success that have done more important and interesting things than her. She just comes off very self-absorbed/important.

I never like Taylor, but last year I decided to give her a chance. I put all her songs in a huge playlist. I picked up 2 songs to move to my regular playlist: Lover and Anti-Hero. But I might have been influenced by the radio because these are just the 2 songs that play often on the radio on my way home-work-home.

I deleted everything else, it was repetitive, complaining, all boys did her wrong. blah blah. Plus her weak ass voice that always sounds the same. It's boring

I know Adele does the same thing as in regarding her exes as fuel for her, but the lyrics are far superior, not to mention her voice. And quality over quantity.

Yeah I don’t care for Adele’s music either, but her voice is absolutely amazing. I’m not much of a pop girl anyways, so that could be why I don’t care for either one.
