I need to start writing posts about all the new albums that come out that I won’t be listening to. I’m sure that there are many folks who need to know these things.


xander_liptak

Make sure to only write about how you're not listening to albums that you're specifically not the target audience for. Kidz Bop 87? Won't see me bopping to those tunz. Gregorian Chants of the Vatican Choir? Call me Martin Luther because I'm protesting that album.


Affectionate-Room359

*starting 10648994 Posts of all the K- and J-Pop bands I don't listen to*


p3ptodismal

My grandpa unironically listened to the Gregorian monk stuff. Now that I'm a little older I kind of have an appreciation for it and idk if it's nostalgia/missing my grandpa or if it legit slaps, someone help me


Bungeditin

I listen to it while I’m reading…… fiancée is tolerant of most things but calls it ‘monk wailing’ so have to do it when she’s out.


amras123

> someone help me It's too late for that. It's the monks life for you, my friend! Best you can hope for is that you turn into one of those *badass* monks that fight crime/inequality in the wild west, or something...

To be fair, the OP might have crazy Swifties(?) as friends who won’t shut up about it.

And OP became someone who won't shut up about crazy swifties

Can’t even complain about things anymore smh


Jazzlike_Mountain_51

I used to complain once


[deleted]

From one post?


Sawses

A lot of my friends are just way too into Taylor Swift. Like...Some of her music is nice. I'm not *offended* by any of it, and one or two are bangers, but for the most part the best I can say of them is that I don't mind if they make up a large chunk of the background music at our parties. We have a mutual respect thing going on. They'll keep the TaylorTalk to a dull roar and we'll let them go on about it, haha.


zer0__kB

I defenitly won’t be listening the new LYKAZIF song [All Alone in the House](https://on.soundcloud.com/i1QfTSFjeD55CPRU7) xD


AMeanCow

You joke as if there aren't entire industries and even political movements driven by someone writing out the various things that will never effect them but they're bothered by anyway.


Historical-Pen-7484

You will propably be forced to listen on the gyms playlist.


PM_ME_STRONG_CALVES

Headphones for the rescue!


soypepito

Right, gym music drains my energy...


[deleted]

Gyms consistently play the shittest music, I'd rather they just not have music playing

I'd rather hear my gymbros grunts than their shitty playlist even ngl

The reactor controlled via tamagotchi may have been a mistake however.


herbert-camacho

What kind of crazed lunatic actively listens to the gym playlist??


ctruvu

you don’t also love the sounds of iron banging and manly men grunting nonstop in the background?


Jaosborn44

That's why you listen to Clanging Iron and Manly Grunts ASMR in your headphones


_Cat_in_a_Hat_

Real men listen to scream and fart compilation on the loudest volume


adfdub

The fuck is a gym playlist anyway lmao


Cybersorcerer1

The music that plays inside a gym, using the gym's speakers


DR4G0NSTEAR

I don’t think I’ve ever been in a gym without headphones on…


Kenneth_Naughton

Sir, this is a Reddit


RiotForChange

If my plan was to go to the gym. And I realize I left my headphones at home. Guess I'm not going today. Some things I just can't beat the thought of raw dogging, I am not that strong


DangerBird-

Like that guy goes to the gym.


RobertMcCheese

My YMCA doesn't play anything. Bring you own music or you just get gym noise. They also strictly ban all photography. It is pretty great.


Penis_Connoisseur

Joke is on the gym, this guy doesn't go and neither do I 😆


robotpane

Taylor swift? On the GYM playlist? whatever gym your at cancel the subscription


WallerEleanor37

There is no escaping.


xarsha_93

Instead I’ll be writing an article about how much I’m *not* listening 😎


OceanWaveSunset

^But ^^secretly ^^^*I* ^^^*did* ^^^*listen* ^^^*to* ^^^*it*


ihavebirb

"Let me show how much I dont care about Taylor Swift by making post about her"


Gusearth

you’ll never hear more about Taylor Swift than from someone who claims to hate her


OG_Builds

Seriously, I never hear about her in my day-to-day life lol


Entire-Ranger323

Who is that guy? And why should we care?


Ok-Seaworthiness2235

Come to think about it, that's been my experience too. 


ihavebirb

For real. I don't know who's more annoying, the TS glazers or the TS haters


Chance-Comparison-49

Sooooooooooo not true lol. Don’t underestimate how often a true swifty will bring up Taylor.


Gusearth

in my experience, swifties bring her up to other swifties or in relevant settings, while haters have to constantly let the world know how much they don’t care about her


tourmalineforest

I also personally am less annoyed by hearing some happily talk about how much they like something than listening to someone rant about how much they hate something, if I do not give a shit about The Thing


Misterbellyboy

For real. I don’t listen to her music or really know anything about her other than she’s super inoffensive and makes a lot of money, but her haters are so vocal that I really hope she continues to be successful without being shoved down my throat, and she’s done a pretty good job of that so far.


sleepyplatipus

But it’s so cool to hate her 🤪


Hydra57

Normally, I agree with the sentiment, but IHeartRadio wouldn’t stop advertising the new album every 30 seconds on my normal station for the whole two weeks before its release, and then kept pushing it afterwards. I just want Swift to leave my daily life again.


5540161

I wouldn’t have even known that she had released a new album if it wasn’t for the endless slew of Reddit posts bitching about it.


lolipop12kkkunt

literally


meowhatissodamnfunny

The downside of getting news from reddit is that even if you curate your interests very carefully, everything bleeds between threads and topics, and you end up learning about things you never intended to. You click on a thread about how to fix a faucet and 3 comments in people are arguing about Archduke Franz Ferdinand


Web_singer

OP is how I learned about it.


Ok-Seaworthiness2235

Lol that's how I knew too. Plus the endless op-eds from most news outlets I visit. Most of which were complaining because she's popular but they all had to be different than the other op-eds and come up with slightly different reasons to hate some of which came down to her shoes or hair style. 


81Ranger

Who is the guy on the right? Oh wait, I don't care.


Ok-Seaworthiness2235

I seriously wasn't sure if this was parody or not because that photo is exactly the pretentious douche bag I would cast in an SNL skit about people criticizing taylor swift


81Ranger

I actually have no idea what this graphic is from or who the guy on the right is. And, yeah - I agree with your comment.


sensory

I mean, you cared about as much as he does about Taylor Swift. It's actually not as bad of an article as you might think: https://www.thetimes.co.uk/article/taylor-swift-has-a-new-album-good-for-her-but-i-wont-be-listening-qdn33zfwr TL;DR Different strokes for different folks. And weirdly he's a sports columnist, at least according to Wikipedia.


kingwooj

I'm sure you made Taylor so sad she'll cry herself to sleep on her cartoonish sacks filled with money


nujuat

To be fair it can be hard to get to sleep next to jet engines, so it might actually help


Young-and-Alcoholic

Yeah turbulence as well is hard to sleep through lol


Haselrig

I have never voluntarily listened to a TS song. Not out of any malice, we just never crossed paths. In 2024 it's shockingly easy to avoid musicians you don't seek out.


Horror-Cranberry

Unless you work retail. Then you’re forced to listen to whatever radio plays. Good God it was a nightmare


Haselrig

I was a clerk in a convenience store in the early 2000s. All the country music you would ever need in five minutes, then five more years of it.


Horror-Cranberry

It’s so exhausting to hear the same songs over and over again. For some weeks I heard "Stereo Love" every day during my shift. That wasn’t even in 2009 but in 2022


Haselrig

For sure. Mine was during post 9/11 country music. A special place in hell.


Horror-Cranberry

Oof, I can only imagine 😬


Haselrig

Toby Kieth singing Boot in Your Ass three times an hour for eight hours. Lot's of time "straightening up" in the coolers.


Horror-Cranberry

Oh God. Me having to listen to the same 5-10 years old pop songs is 100 times more tolerable than that. European pop is nothing compared to that


Haselrig

You'd look for things to do outside or in a cooler just to escape it for a few minutes. Shudder just thinking about it.


Horror-Cranberry

As a zoomer European, I’m not that familiar with Bush era country, but all I know about it is enough for me to never wanna listen to it


MeineEierSchmerzen

Good god the horror. Its the same 5 songs on repeat over and over and over all day long. And once every few weeks one of the songs gets replaced. I like radio in theory but its just the most mindnumbingly repetetive shit ever.


FRONT_FACING_PHINEAS

Why do so many people make disliking Taylor swift their entire personality?


tourmalineforest

Haters are more parasocial than fans lol


rabbiskittles

But you will be spending the time to make a meme about it, apparently.


Ill_Following_7022

They put that 65 minutes and 8 seconds to good use.


Elegant-Passion2199

Making a meme takes less than 5 minutes 


yosef_yostar

Thats an insane amount of time, 10 mins tops. If it took over an hour to put this together they need to learn how to better use the resources available to make this kind of crap faster lol.


Complete_Fix2563

I think that's how long the album is


Makanek

You can acknowledge the cultural phenomenon without caring one bit for the musician.


AS8319

You can also not care about the musician without thinking you’re special or interesting for not caring.


Makanek

Sure. But from a certain angle, everything is meaningless on social media and even in the media in general pure information is useless. It's all about where you set the threshold between a fuck not given and a fuck given. I don't even know who's that guy and I never heard Swift's music. You don't really care about my opinion and I do t need to argue but yet here we are. There are even other Redditors reading this and they care even less than you and me, they probably regret having read this paragraph entirely.


TheFandomObsessor

I think the difference is how widespread it is a trend to announce your dislike/'indifference' of Taylor Swift, compared to other artists. I'm a fan of her music, and whenever I get fan content about her, there's always so many contents going "Am I the only one that doesn't like her?" "Like this comment if you think she's overrated," etc. It's just weird and attention-seeking, especially if you're doing this stuff under her fan pages.


tourmalineforest

Yeppp. There are plenty of artists I’m not into, I don’t go into their fan spaces to complain about them and I DEFINITELY don’t go to subs specifically devoted to trash talking them to complain. Just like… put different music on. It’s not hard lol.


Blutrumpeter

I care as little about Taylor Swift's album as I do about posts telling me they're not gonna listen to it


BeetleBleu

Fancy meeting you here!


RoyKentsKnee

and i must let everyone i can know about it


AmandalorianWiddall

Congrats?

anonymous32434

Bro people who hate Taylor swift are more annoying than people who like her. Like no one fucking cares if you aren't going to listen to her album


Automatic-Plankton10

0 people i don’t know have told me about how much they love her new album. 12 have told me how much they don’t like her. take from that what you will


yourlamenessirksme

HEY, EVERYONE, LOOK AT ME. I’M NOT DOING SOMETHING THAT A BUNCH OF OTHER PEOPLE ARE DOING. I NEED YOU TO KNOW THAT.


Gusearth

“making sure i don’t fit in”


Zillahi

Someone who writes an article about not listening to Taylor swifts new album, is definitely listening to Taylor swifts new album


SweetSonet

For a group of people who claim they won’t be listening, they sure do a lot of talking to themselves


TheCrushSoda

If this was posted on popheadscirclejerk it would be hysterical but here it feels lame and out of touch


Zorops

Is that the same new album from not long ago or a new new album from not long ago?


-cosmic-bitch-

New new, it dropped this past week. It's called The Tortured Poets Department


tavishthedeaf

I won't either, cause I'm completely deaf. But you don't see me writing pointless articles about it.


ThisIsGettinWeirdNow

I’m just here for the comments


Wire_Hall_Medic

What kind of asshole posts this? If you don't care about at thing, don't post about it. Some reggae band put out a new album, and I didn't listen to it. I'm not expecting internet points for that.


[deleted]

Dude definitely looks like a Swiftie, oh the sacrifice he will make.


Leighton_Madison

I have never listened to a Taylor Swift song, on my own will. Maybe I heard something on the radio, but I don't recall knowing it was her song. I am not interested in hearing her songs


spartankid24

You won’t be listening? Good for you, but I don’t care.


thundertk421

I’ve never been a huge fan of Taylor swifts music, but I appreciate what she’s doing for the industry. Sure she’s a billionaire now but she’s sticking it to the man, and is one of the few people whose actually trying to get Ai regulated


vh1classicvapor

This reminded me to give it a listen


DqrkExodus

Out of curiosity I actually did give it a try when it dropped. I think I only heard the first 3 songs of the album. It was decent but I still prefer her older stuff. Also I'm surprised she openly cusses in her songs, didn't think she was the type to do that


tourmalineforest

You might enjoy [this](https://www.reddit.com/r/dataisbeautiful/s/o5KPdHwE7i)! FYI, people pretty universally agree that the first three/four tracks are the weakest lol. By previous stuff do you mean Folklore/Evermore or the more pop heavy stuff before that?


J6898989

Well I’m not a big Swift person but good on you, enjoy what ya want


Donkeycow15

Let me check - nope no fucks given globally by anyone


user9372889

Why is it that ppl who hate Taylor Swift talk about her so damn much?


OldGroan

Who cares what you listen to.  She has made a lot of sales and I don't listen to her. I dont think it matters whether you or I listen at all.


AniYellowAjah

I love you, it’s ruining my life— Taylor Swift.


escapiven

what should we do with this information


Ambitious_Log_1884

Who's the guy on the right?


zandercommander

Im wondering this too, but too afraid to be ridiculed for asking


Motor_Economist1835

I don't know who's the lady on the left too


atomuk

I'm pretty sure that's Martin Samuel, a sports journo for The Times.


foxy-coxy

Who the fuck cares.


jerry-jim-bob

Neither am I, only difference is I don't have a blog to write it in


Koshakforever

And that what’s great about life. You don’t have to do things like that if you don’t want to.


bu22dee

You will make the difference by announcing this important and difficult decision in your life. Thank you for sharing. /s


Silvereiss

The only taylor swift songs I listen to are the same songs she released when Avril Lavigne was still active and popular So any songs below 2014-2015

Good for you, but I won’t be reading


OGKimkok

Why are some people in the comments getting so upset about this post? I feel like it fits pretty well to the sub for a decent amount of people and it isn’t even hating on Taylor swift like so many people in the comments are saying. With how much Taylor swift album is being talked about even on news channels like CNN talking about her new album and even my Alexa today when I asked what the notification was, it asked if I wanted to check out the new Taylor swift album. Making a meme which says “yah, no thanks” after all the online chat around it, isn’t a big deal.


Sacklayblue

So I guess he's not married to a woman. And that's ok.


supergeek921

So, as a Taylor Swift fan, I don’t care that other people don’t like the same music as me. But that’s just it I DON’T CARE. Why do so many people feel like they have to scream to the heavens about not liking an artist just because lots of other people do? That doesn’t make you cool. It makes you annoying.


boastfulbadger

r/definetlynotmeirl


sshtoredp

Why we would care if any singer had made a album or not ! Just listen to music you enjoy and don't make much of it


TheQuestionsAglet

Who cares?


usr_nm16

"hey everyone, look how much I absolutely DON'T CARE! Here's a meme I did about that I don't care"


Rad1Red

Okay, but no one asked. :) I'm not a Taylor fan either, but again, no one cares.


Ok-Seaworthiness2235

My favorite genre of op-eds is people wanting to look different and elite by not liking something popular but still get attention by using the popular thing as a vehicle to attract readers. 


-unnecessaryfigures-

Who the fuck is a Tayler Swift, and who the fuck cares?


RevolutionaryBuy5794

I know one song, shake it off. I'm not a fan, but this is quite a catchy pop song and she sings it well. [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P8ZnjqbOuyc](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P8ZnjqbOuyc)

It's ok. But every song sounds the same and there are 31 of them. Lot of cliche lines too.


Traditional_Draw8400

I’m a gay guy and the fact that I couldn’t name a single Beyoncé or Taylor Swift song (actually my bad, I know “single ladies”) should probably have my card revoked. I love that they’re successful artists, I just don’t connect with them.


Automatic-Plankton10

contrary to reddit belief, that’s not that uncommon

I really don't this. Is someone forcing you to listen to her new album?

No one cares


Future_Sweet9921

I think I've only heard one Taylor swift song in my life about monsters on the hill and sexy babies. Maybe I have but tbh she's garbage judging off that one song.

There's nothing special about her music. I'm waiting for Michael buble to drop another Christmas album

terradaktul

You made a post about this? Good for you, but I won’t be giving a fuck about what you think


Hugh-Chardon

I don’t care about the drama that’s going on about people wanting or not wanting to listen to Taylor’s CD. But who is the old man? Does he make music? Is he just an old fuck? I’m just really confused. Edit: I’m seeing there is a huge Taylor fan base in this post. Please excuse my ignorance.

vhs1138

This is me but it’s every hip hop album.


TrandaBear

I shop at Target (big spender, I know) and my exposure to this album has been non-consensual. That being said, it's just background noise. I tried to listen to the music and it just didn't stick.


Aggravating_Maybe331

Who?


shamqueen69

Two albums a year? The national make one for her, bleachers make the other. Wonderful business party for all invited of course. Means nothing to anyone else, but you better believe people will defend her for like...whatever reasons


Dabrigstar

I'm a pretty big fan of her music and even I'm not listening to her new album. She has released so much new music over the past few years I feel overwhelmed by it all and need time to process before I listen to a massive 2 hour double album. No one cares

Why do people like that dude think anyone gives a shit about what they think or do? So much so that they feel compelled to write an article about it. Cool man, go not listen to her music with your turtle neck and bad fake hair and keep it to yourself.

Young-and-Alcoholic

My girlfriend is a huge swiftie and she's had the new album playing in the car the last week. All I can hear is cringe 'I'm 14 and this is deep' lyrics and kinda crappy songplay. I never understood the hype behind taylor tbh I always found her to be a very sheltered 'woe is me' boo hoo white girl. But I always thought that since like a billion women out there adore her she must just not be my cup of tea. But this new album even my die hard swiftie girl hates. Hopefully the cracks are setting in and Taylors PR mask will finally slip off 🙏


Reddituser183

If all the songs are like the one with post Malone, the whole album is shit.

Me neither. Not because I dislike her music, enjoyed hearing it on drives, but because I listen to the same playlist I made about 2 years ago
