Midnights[Moonstone Blue Edition LP]

I’m not going to say that I’ve been a TS fan since her debut…but I’ve never had anything against her either. Yeah she’s a pop star, but there is something about her that just screams integrity and here for more than entertainment to me. I know exactly when I became a fan…it was the weekend after 1989 was released. My gf at the time loved her and always bought her albums upon debut. That weekend we were on vacation and she needed music to fall asleep. She played that album on repeat every night over that holiday weekend and I’m a night owl that never fell asleep right away. It must have seeped into my unconscious because come the next day I knew all the words and melodies to each song! Ever since then I’ve been a fan without shame. I cannot say that I love her radio songs, not that they are bad but sometimes come off too pop-ish, formulaic, and cheesy in my humble opinion. I know I’m reviewing her more than the album but I rant…and one thing I can say regarding TS is that she is a true songwriter and musician. Not to mention performer. There are songs that are so deeply emotional that it’s hard to not feel or relate to her. That I will say is true with Midnights. I love this album start to finish, but often have a hard time not going down the rabbit hole after it builds to “You’re on your own kid” and then I just repeat that song. I feel like I can see my own life and events both big and small flash before my eyes during that 4 minute absolutely perfect song. It builds into something beyond life, love, feeling, memory, optimism, regret, hope, disappointment, and courage to keep going in my opinion. I often feel like I can relate to her lyrics (co-written or not) there is a sense of empathy for an utter stranger and complete opposite that I see of myself and taste in music. I do think that midnights is an amazing work of art, and another timeless album that will be here long after me or even TS herself. That’s where I think her music is different than other pop stars. It will remain relevant for decades to come. But I might just be insane so take with this what you want.

The media could not be loaded. I love this album so much, the vinyl played perfectly with no skips and it was very clear. This pressing is so pretty!

I was so excited to see Amazon had the blue moonstone vinyl! It was packaged great and is in perfect condition!

This was a gift. Arrived as advertised and quickly

The Midnights vinyl was a perfect birthday gift for my niece. She's a huge Taylor Swift fan and was over the moon when she opened it!

The media could not be loaded. This cd is an amazing item to add onto my cd collection and which this is one of the four cd/vinyls that create a clock but if your are looking for a gift for a Swiftie, this is a MUST HAVE!!!!!

I mean, this album is all hits so how could it be anything but 5 stars.

I've been liking Taylor Swift for a while now, and this was great!
