Taylor Swift was so bummed that all her big summer plans didn't pan out that she went into the studio to work out her emotions. And, as it turns out, she recorded a whole new album, Folklore, which will drop at midnight tonight (July 23).

"Most of the things I had planned this summer didn’t end up happening, but there is something I hadn’t planned on that DID happen," she wrote on Instagram, announcing the surprise release with a series of images of a fog-enshrouded forest. "And that thing is my 8th studio album, folklore. Surprise Tonight at midnight I’ll be releasing my entire brand new album of songs I’ve poured all of my whims, dreams, fears, and musings into. I wrote and recorded this music in isolation but got to collaborate with some musical heroes of mine."

She could have used the down time to complete her ‘education’

I just don’t get the appeal. She just epitomizes the cynical, manufactured corporate music industry to me. I have no interest in pablum.

What she produces is not 'music'.

It is a manufactured product.

Sorta beat me to it. I’ve always hated that term ‘music industry’.

Two things I noticed about her:

I think the arrangements are absolutely amazing.
Whenever one of her songs comes on, I can tell it’s her because the singer sounds pedestrian. i.e. nothing special in her voice. No “hooks” that I hear. She’s just a girl with a fairly good singing voice, enhanced by autotune, but has some good business sense and, however she does it, comes up with some really good song arrangements.

But when she went political I was done. I deleted my TS channel on Pandora and every time one of her songs comes up on any streaming source I hit the dislike button.

I can live without TS.

Summer plans == lucrative summer tour worth hundreds of millions of dollars.

If she was smart she’d be using this “down time” to motion capture and record her dance act for use in either computer animation or holographic technology (which also technically is computer animation for the most part).

She ain’t gettin’ any younger and her digital self could go out there (or work at a theme park theater) and pull in that money when she turns old and gray.

Summer plans == opportunity to trash Trump and conservatives at large events.

Just now, the cut in back to the news was playing a bit of one of these new songs. Sounded like ‘Macarena’.
