Easily offended Lover stans be warned. Our disdain for this album is no secret. Now get ready to understand why Lover will always fall to the bottom of our rankings. From the dazzling highs of 'Cruel Summer' to the cringe-worthy lows of ‘You Need to Calm Down', we're sharing our unfiltered takes on every song, daring to ask: where did it all go wrong? Why does Lover lack that special sauce that is innate to every other Taylor album?

We hereby conduct this review of The Tortured Poets Department, an album that sees Taylor shedding her previous skins to reveal raw honesty with a theatrical narrative. Gone are the days of hiding behind fictional characters; Swift now bares her soul in such an extreme and candid manner that decoding each lyric becomes a journey in itself. Join us as we dissect the album's themes, from the intricacies of morality in art to the wild west of Taylor's fame.
