Maybe one of these artists has built a deliberately distant and alienating public image and released an album where that disconnect finally snaps in some really resonant ways while the other has built her career upon being #relatable despite being increasingly not and also her latest just being a bloated mess. Maybe they're not the same! Maybe.

Sis, I genuinely wouldn't know what side is supposed to apply to what album until I reach "bloated mess" in these descriptions.

Sis after your ballad argument last week I don't trust you to make any quantitative judgments on what constitutes a bop!

It's not my fault other people can't tell the difference between a ballad, a midtempo and a slow jam

Though seriously, what other songs on TTPD would you describe as bops? Even if I Can Do It isn't the only one, at least it's very clearly the boppiest thing on the album.

I adore Taylor's vocals on I Can Fix Him (No Really I Can). I don't think Taylor gets enough credit for how willing she is to explore new vocal stylings and modulations. For all the criticism she's gotten for her vocals over the years, she's become a masterful storyteller with the instrument she has. Her lower register in particular is so evocative and fitting for the imagery of I Can Fix Him - it's so easy to picture it as a sultry sequel of sorts to cowboy like me, the lonely gun-woman sitting in the corner of a smoke-filled bar, locating her latest mark.

And I could see it from a mile away
A perfect case for my certain skill-set
He had a halo of the highest grade
He just hadn't met me yet

I'm a bit surprised at I Can Fix Him leaving already teebs, out of all the snoozers it was one of the more interesting ones.

I echo the sentiment of please let's kick out the musical and Picture You/Kaleidoscope.

I also feel like some of these girls are probably benefiting from multiple people throwing 10s at even their most middling material, because there are definitely some albums that really should have lost more songs by this point.

I can see why you might think this, but this genuinely isn’t really the case. In fact, if there were any ‘anomalies’ in voting, it actually was with Taylor, who commonly received album averages in the 6.5-7 range and then BAM, a 9+ average would come through. Most of the other albums received a tighter range of averages, just shifted up a bit.

Unfortunately, the high Taylor averages were outliers, and not enough to drag up the graveyard of songs that were constantly just being bombarded with 5/6s.
