I haven't heard a Taylor Swift song since Look What You Made Me Do and am only aware of that scarf shit due to Dionne Warwick's Twitter. I haven't heard a full Adele song in years either.

All Too Well 10 min is a bad song tho, just thematically confused in a way that makes the whole thing worse. The video was lovely tho!

(Anonymous) 2021-11-25 04:54 am (UTC)(link)A fair few are about break-ups, but only a small number are about the men she broke up with.
I don't think her songs are more relationship-focused than the majority of mainstream artist's songs are. I think the main difference is that her songs are diaristic in nature, which tends to lead to people engaging with them slightly differently. Taylor Swift's writing process, most of the time, is not, "I want to write a love song. How shall it go?" Her process is, "I want to write about this particular feeling I have, or this particular aspect of a breakup that I've been musing on. I'm going to start unpacking that kernel, musical-diary style."
I do think her break-up songs can be a bit more blamey than some artists. She has a few songs where she takes responsibility for messing up in a relationship, but they're the minority. Her main weakness as a writer, IMO, is that she isn't good at writing both recrimination and self-blame in the same song. She tends to write either one or the other, which is almost inherently less complex. But in all fairness, pop is not a genre know for its subtlety. The more subtle and complex her songs get, the less pop they get, partially by design, but also somewhat by default.
