The lights are so bright, but they never blind me. Welcome to New York.

不管是音樂,電視劇,電影我們都能找到紐約的蹤影, 如 Sex and the city, The devil wears prada, 1979年Woody Allen的Manhathan全都是跟紐約有關的故事情節。而在2014末Taylor Swift也告訴我們原來除了世界各地的人外,身為美國人的她也擁有自己的紐約夢. 老實說,在她上一張專輯Red之前推出的專輯,我都覺得她的音樂有點兒"低B", “way too teenage”。而在這張以她自己出生年份為名的專輯1989,我確確實實看到她真的長大,蛻變了,所以我才決定為她這張紐約味濃烈,跟我同樣有紐約fantasy的專輯說說看hehe。音樂風格主要以懷舊大都會,帶點80s味道為主。本人最喜歡專輯裏的track 3 "Style"。 透過fashion為題來比喻她跟One Direction Harry Styles 的關係。另一首我非常愛的track是點題作 “Welcome to New York”,upbeat的melody和入腦的歌詞,非常到肺。雖然Taylor Swift近幾年的緋聞對象真的多到可能一張A3紙也數不完,但她總比那個時常處於“假瘋癲”狀態的Miley Cyrus好得多。

如果大家有留意的話,其實除了她的音樂風格改變了之外,她的打扮風格也變得成熟。 最近在一些live shows裏都看到她以同print,同色的cropped top &hot pants套裝出席,我非常buy! 既好看又貼近她1989專輯的80s風格,造型師應記一功。 大家可以看下面她為這次1989專輯所拍攝的polaroid作為參考 :)。

P.S 剛看到MTV channel的解說。原來在1989專輯裏的歌詞本藏有Taylor Swift想跟大家說的小秘密。在每首歌的歌詞裏都找到一些lowercase letters,大家只要從track 1到track 13順序把它們拼在一起就能解開Taylor Swift想跟大家說的小秘密。為了方便大家,我從MTV channel website copy & paste 出來了。 haha。

We begin our story in New York (“Welcome To New York”). There once was a girl known by everyone and no one (“Blank Space”). Her heart belonged to someone who couldn’t stay (“Stlye”). They loved each other recklessly (“Out of the Woods”). They paid the price (“All You Had To Do Was Stay”). She danced to forget him (“Shake It Off”). He drove past her street each night (“I Wish You Would”). She made friends and enemies (“Bad Blood”). He only saw her in his dreams (“Wildest Dreams”). Then one day he came back (“How You Get The Girl”). Timing is a funny thing (“This Love”). And everyone was watching (“I Know Places”). She lost him but she found herself and somehow that was everything (“Clean”).
