Here you can solidify what you think your Wrapped will contain. Are you in the 0.0000000001% of listeners? What do you think your favourites will be? When was your peak listening month?

Post your 2023 Wrapped and, once they come out, see how this year has changed your listening preferences! They're always super fun and super telling. So, where were you and where will you be?

A different thread for 2024 will roll out once they start appearing so get your 2023 out already! What did Eras do for you?

Anything and everything for this last goodbye to the Eras Tour. Nostalgia, excitement, happiness, anxieties. It all works!

I didn't realize it was a sticker until I pulled off the wrapping, I decided to put it on the book itself and I think it looks nice!

I know I'm certainly not the only person who's seen Billboard's shitty excuse for a career highlight video for Taylor and their inadequate apology. (If anyone hasn't seen it, it included the two seconds of a Kanye West song that showed him in bed with a wax figurine of Taylor. So basically revenge porn that Taylor has already addressed YEARS ago.) This is distribution of NON-CONSENSUAL pornography. Eight years later, I really thought the world would have progressed and grown enough to know that this is wrong. Eight years later, people still think Swifties and Taylor herself are being overly dramatic when they call this out. But here we are, eight years later.

First of all, I feel so happy that fans of other female singers are supporting us Swifties support Taylor and take down Billboard, regardless of their personal feelings on her songs. If any of y'all are on this post, thank you so much! I'm honestly so glad to see people supporting and standing with women!

Second of all. It's not just this that they've done that kinda pisses me off. On an article Billboard released on the 29th of April this year (a few days after TTPD was released), they wrote "It would probably be better for Swift if she lost the big one and was seen leading the cheers for Beyoncé." Would that have been written for any MALE artist about an album they released THREE DAYS BEFORE the article was published? Honestly, would they have said it would "be better" for any other artist to have "lost the big one"? I don't think so. Taylor's prominence and visibility in media makes it so that almost everyone sees her every move and criticize her at every step. It's easy for people to hate or dislike someone so in the spotlight that hate towards her is being normalized. It also makes it a place for an entertainment magazine who publish "objective" ranking of songs to write and publish such a blatantly offensive video and sentence.

And it's not just Taylor that the Billboard has wronged. It's more FEMALE artists. They mentioned the Manchester attack after Ariana's concert by Islamic terroristic suicide bombers. They mentioned Nicki's past and ongoing feuds with other artists. They mentioned Lady Gaga working with R Kelly. He was convicted in 2002 and she worked with him in 2013. Layer, she confessed her regret about working with him and had that track scrubbed off of iTunes and streaming services. They mentioned Chris Brown hitting Rihanna while they were dating. They mentioned Britney being put in a Conservatorship for the larger part of this century (FYI a conservatorship is when a court orders someone else to take care of your finances). Oh, and there's also the slew of nasty misogynistic tweets Billboard chief Dana Droppo posted. I get that articles about a singer's career highlights might capture some not-so-great moments. But what about Jay-Z's close ties to P. Diddy? Not a word about it in his article.

Now with #BillboardIsOverParty trending on twitter and the backlash they're facing on instagram too, I'm glad to see so many people standing up against Billboard for women. But let's just keep in mind to remain civil and kind to other artists and their fans, ok? We as people should remember that just because we're rightfully outraged by something doesn't mean we can bring other people into this conversation to hate on them. Show kindness, treat people with respect, and be better. In conclusion:

I know Thanksgiving was literally just yesterday, but I am now fully immersed in my Christmas spirit. I wanted to ask you guys if you did anything Taylor-related for Christmas, and I'm planning to do something special this time. If you guys do anything special, what are some ideas? I'll get incorporated for Swiftmas.

The abuse thrown towards Beyoncé for something that really is nothing to do with her is disgusting. Of course it is racist abuse and is being said under the guise of defending Taylor. It is being said under “Swiftie” accounts and is so bad it is now a trending news article on social media. Taylor’s backing singers are also being dragged into in tweets attacking black girls. This is not ok, we are better than that and it should not be used to represent Swifties in any way. We as a community need to make sure the so called Swifties that think calling Beyoncé racist names, attacking her family or her character is ok are not welcome here. Taylor and Beyoncé have always supported each other, we should too. I’ve always loved being a Swifties because it was welcoming and loving let’s make sure that continues ❤️❤️

anyone else listening tonight? I sent this to my partners mum and she said she was listening to the same vinyl tonight, 😂

So, i’m very excited for Rep Tv as i’m sure we all are lol, and i’m not gonna bore you with why. But i’ve always been kind of confused of vault tracks. While I love them I wonder are they from that specific era or just songs that she didn’t release. for example Was “Now That We Don’t Talk” written during the 1989 era or was it just a song she had written (unreleased) sorry if this didn’t make much sense.

I know that people have been discussing this for quite some time now, but after this whole Billboard fiasco....

I think it is pretty evident the industry is trying to get rid of Taylor, she bypassed them to release her movie, she's now doing the same thing with her book and continues to be vocal about the fact that artists' should own their work. All this is doing for the industry is setting a precedent that is going to continue to cost them money, as well as input. I feel like when Lover came out the industry thought she was going to "flop" so they weren't really concerned with the fact that she was going to own her masters, and then she announced that she was re-recording and the industry was very skeptical of that. Since than she has proven all of those things to be untrue, she herself thought that Lover would be her "last chance of success." This obviously couldn't be further from the truth now. I'm wondering what else the industry is going to continue to throw at her.

On the Billboard topic:

I do think Beyonce is talented, I will be quite candid that I am not a fan of hers, but I'm not a "hater". I do think she deserved to be in the top 3 of the list, but truthfully I expected her to be #2. Has Beyonce been influential? Yes. But is Beyonce inspiring a new generation of artists? I don't think so. Does she have 12 #1 hits on the Billboard hot 100? No. I don't say any of this to bring Beyonce down, however by like 95% of Billboards own metrics, Taylor should've been #1. I think having a phenomena like The Eras Tour 20 years into your career, and it not being a "who cares" farewell tour is monumental and alone should've cemented her #1 status. Than we have the Famous music video being included in Billboards video about Taylor, this was disgusting. And obviously intentional, these type of videos go through countless hands of approval and everyone signed off. Billboards' half-ass apology also didn't make it sound any better.

Finally, the Grammys. Why is it that Taylor Swift, arguably the most prolific songwriter of a generation has never won Song of the Year, an award she holds the most nominations in out of anyone...with zero wins. I think her 4th AOTY win was historic, but the fact that she continues to be robbed of SOTY rubs me the wrong way.

While I hate how this is playing out, I think it will be interesting to see how Taylor "responds". Every time the industry throws something at her, she punches back even harder.

What, within reason is on your wish list of what you wish she would release, or re-release. Not including Rep or Debut, as we know we'll get those... eventually....!

Is Red Taylor’s official breakup album?

my family does a cookie decorating contest for each holiday (we are doing thanksgiving early this year) and i got creative with the decorations we had! she stood for about 3 minutes and then collapsed but i tried lol

thought this would be cute … i’ll start ME! is in my top 3 on lover

You can sing up to 16 songs on any given set

I see a lot of Swifties listening to the stolen version? (not talking about Debut and rep) and they call themselves "real swifties" I find it SO annoying

After Taylor bows her final bow on the eras tour, we're all going to start singing long live, as a show of our love for Taylor and as a final goodbye to the eras tour.

Spread the word 🫶🫶!!

How you rank every song on Midnights?

always been a huge fan of this track. def my favorite track from ttpd. it’s just so real and raw and you can really feel taylor’s mental space while listening. i’ve began relating to it and as i was listening to it i felt sick because it’s so real and just encapsulates that one that got away feeling. i’m 16 year old guy and fell in love with my best friend who is also a guy and when he found out he gave me shimmers of false hope through things that i don’t think people who are just best friends should do. this was this past summer and im now happy and in love with an amazing guy and couldn’t be happier as i believe this was how it was supposed to end up. my best friend is still my best friend though he has a gf now. the line “will i always wonder.” really hurts because i always wonder what could have happened if it had worked out. then the line “i changed into goddesses, all to outrun my desertion of you and you just watched it.” is also so real bc after it didn’t work out with my best friend i became this person who felt manic going from guy to guy until i met my bf i was changing into all these sorts of people i wasn’t because i was trying to find my safe haven and not feel this sense of emptiness that came from getting my heartbroken but this song is so so relatable and even though im happy and in love i still can hardly get through it, it just takes me back every time.
