  • Today, we’re going to be talking about Taylor Swift’s fourth studio album, "RED", and how this record was the one to ultimately lay the groundwork for the record breaking 1989.
    Many rightfully so, assume "1989" is where Taylor’s country career spun a 180, however, without "RED", the transition into "1989" likely would have been much more difficult.
    "RED" is a record that interlaced a stronger influence of pop, began to shed Taylor Swift’s sweetheart image, and allowed her to showcase a version of herself that arguably, won’t be seen again.
    Let me know in the comments, why you think RED was such a pivotal record in Taylor Swift’s career!

      I read the opposite, where the idea to bring in Max Martin and Shellback was was Borchetta's suggestion. This is a quote from an article: “I said, ‘You know, this song isn’t working yet.’ They both looked at me (Swift and Nathan Chapman) with a blank stare. The chorus isn’t elevating like it needs to. Where you’re wanting to take the song, it’s not going there. It needs a Max Martin type of lift.”… At that point Borchetta called Martin. Both Borchetta and Swift agree that it was a turning point for “Red”.

    I think that Red is a masterpiece album because it encompasses the whole spectrum, quite possibly better than any of her other albums. It's the album where she still has her country roots but is maturing and yeah I agree that 1989 is the pivotal record but Red was kind of the lead in/transition to the pop era Taylor Swift that we've seen in recent years. It'll be interesting to see how the folklore era goes with so many similarities to Red, as I call it, Red 2.0 lol

    Gosh, Red, the memories of Red when it first came out, it came out right when I started my freshmen year in high school and my love for Taylor was growing. I actually brought the CD at my local target and played it until the CS broke (literally lol). What I love about the album is the aesthetic building the bridge of country music, indie rock and pop music, as well as the coming of age lyrics that features regrets, loneliness, celebrating our youth, loss and self reflection, especially considering I was starting high school, having deep regrets what I did and didn’t do in middle school and starting a journey of who I was becoming as a teenager. Also the album packaging and promo started my love for hipster fashion (even doe I hate hipsters for their association with gentrification)

    In my opinion RED isn't a Country record or a Pop record. RED stayed in grey area between those genres and other sub genres that she mixed it for. And why it's still remain of her great record? Cause the unique production & the masterpiece lyrics are the reason. We all know Taylor always do this experimental stuff since the beginning of her career. Yeah it's very risky move but she did a great job with every single experiments. In the terms of quality, I still think RED is her best album. Cause in this record we got all the things we need in an Album. folklore probably her 2nd best Album ever, cause this album have the masterpiece lyrics that can compete with RED alongside with the uniqueness itself such as melancholy production, the melody etc. But the problem is the tempo of folklore is too melow and not everyone likes that. Well these two records are enough to describe what Taylor is. She has known as a really great songwriter and a story teller since the beginning.

    When Red is released, I know it’s a preparation for Taylor’s next move. She explored different sounds on that album and slightly changed her image so the change to 1989 would not be so weird or drastic to alienate her fans. After all the albums she released, Red is still my fave one.

    • @popdissected4400
      @popdissected4400  3 года назад

      I totally agree! "RED" definitely prefaced and set a smoother transition to "1989", and it makes me wonder if this was the intention from the start.

  • @jj-reads
    @jj-reads 3 года назад +8

    Yes, I completely agree with everything you said. Red is super important to me bc it’s the first Taylor era I was a swiftie for, but I also think it was the first taste of what to come for Folklore. I think people who are listening to Taylor for the first time with Folklore would also love Red. I know it was criticized for lacking cohesion at the time, but I think it just has an incredible range tied together by strong, “red” emotions. It’ll always be my favorite album of Taylor’s.

    • @popdissected4400
      @popdissected4400  3 года назад

      I keep seeing the "folklore" comparisons popping up and it's not something I really thought about until now, but you're so right! "RED" very much, in a way, was a "folklore" 'lite" so to speak.

  • @jedwards5061
    @jedwards5061 3 года назад +2

    Red was definitely a genre in itself lol It encompassed not only country and pop. It had elements of dub, disco, rock, and indie. It literally could fit anywhere. It’s very much a gem to this date. She really shined as a performer during the tours of that era, as well. And that’s was the time she really started doing her features where she would bring guest artists and also the acoustic performances 🙂

    Love your content and analysis and I will never tire of saying that.
    I love you described the single vs album, which is a creative/business decision that boosts the interest in her as an artist (Which I know thanks to your analysis of reputation! :)))) )
    Red is one of my favourites by Taylor (up there with Rep and folklore), and what puts it there is that, despite including elements of pop, it feels timeless to me. The music itself isn't wrapped up in trends, the story-telling is dream-worthy (as always with Tay), and the situations described are pretty much universal.

    I love all the songs in this album except for the singles, “Begin again” and “all to well” are beautiful gems that deserve every once of love, “state of Grace” is an amazing intro, the tittle track is heartfelt and catchy, “everything has changed is a charming duet as Taylor swift and Ed switch vocals, “holy ground” and “stay stay stay” are underrated gems and “the lucky one is one of my personal favorites. I find the singles to be so annoying AF, like “I knew you were trouble” and “weEEEEE are never getting back together” I still hate them with every ounce of my being “22” is tolerable and cheeky. Overall this album is beautiful and amazing, I wished that all the tracks were mature tho.

    @Eric-gy6dw 3 года назад +5

    So true about the “false start” lead singles! I’ve always said that to friends who have been skeptical of listening to a full Taylor album based on some of her singles alone. Also to me Red is such a monumental album because it’s not only so transitional from a genre perspective but a personal/songwriting perspective which I think you touched on a bit. The songwriting on this album is some of the best and most confessional of her career and definitely showcased her maturity. As for the pop or country question, I don’t think this should be categorised as a country record and I do think it leans more towards pop (especially with WANEGBT, IKYWT, and 22) but I also think she really embraced an indie sound and aesthetic for this album which helped the whole indie/hipster look go mainstream (ironically, and for better or for worse) at the time. Pitchfork called Sad Beautiful Tragic “Taylor on the verge of signing to 4AD”. I could talk about this masterpiece for hours ❤️ thanks for the video!

  • @EternalDreamer1000
    @EternalDreamer1000 3 года назад +3

    RED was the first era i follow from the beginning to end, i discover her with "You belong with me" loved her and remain with "Speak Now", there was something magical about her realeasing promo single track, each songs were different to the previous one (at the time, if i remember correctly, she released "State of grace, RED and I Knew You Were Trouble" as promo track) and wow, the first time i heard IKYWT i was in shock i never expected from her to implement dubstep sound in her music! All Too Well was my jam, the part when she said "And it smells like me" always got me in some way, she sang it with such pain and melancholy in her voice, the imagery in her booklet are very good too! Honestly i feel that her voice it suits better with those kinda of instruments even if i still think that with 1989 e other albums after that she improve a lot lyrically, and Folklore is the proof of that. I get the correlation between Folklore and RED, the first is like winter and the second one is like autumn, they complement each other so well! I honestly can't wait to see what she has in mind with her next project cause it will certainly be different.
