    Her best thus far, undoubtedly a no-skip album. Feels like folklore's more mature (but younger) sister. Amazing storytelling in her lyrics as well as references to folklore and past music, manages swiftly to create eventful narratives while making the songs enjoyable and catchy.

    Evermore is Folklore...but better. Taylor Swift has made arguably her best album ever (again) 14 years after her first studio release. Many have compared this album to her third studio album, Speak Now (2010) for its incredible songwriting and sleek flow. If you weren’t a Taylor Swift fan before, you will be now.

    Taylor Swift is a lyrical genius. Her follow up album to folklore does not disappoint. Coney Island is by far in my opinion the strongest song on the album. The song shows a lot of heart and her skills at writing inspiring lyrics.

    Helps to have in mind that this IS Swift’s second album this year, only a couple of months apart from her last project (folklore), it’s of course going to feel a bit similar to such. Nevertheless, this is still on the same level of quality both lyrically and sonically. If you like folklore, this is definitely a “must-listen-to” album.

    Just as magical as Folklore. Gonna be a big contender at the next Grammys again! But probably wont win because electors votes will split between "Evermore" and "Chemtrails Over The Country Club" causing both to loose sadly.

    "Folklore" I think many assumed would be a one-off in Taylor's sound. From her country roots, to the pop albums of 1989 and Reputation, it seemed like this alternative record would not fit in with any of her past, and it likely would not be in her future. Quarantine was a defining moment in everyone's lives, and in Swift's it would be the moment when she moved into a different era"Folklore" I think many assumed would be a one-off in Taylor's sound. From her country roots, to the pop albums of 1989 and Reputation, it seemed like this alternative record would not fit in with any of her past, and it likely would not be in her future. Quarantine was a defining moment in everyone's lives, and in Swift's it would be the moment when she moved into a different era temporarily.

    She proved that wrong by dropping evermore, an album with similar sounds, melodies, and fictional stories.

    Highlight tracks are "No Body No Crime," possibly Taylor's best song ever written, "Ivy," and "Champagne Problems" which has an epic bridge. The single "Willow" doesn't live up to the sister album's "Cardigan," but it does symbolize a closure of a story that Swift began in July of this year. "Cardigan" describes the pain of being mistreated by a lover, while "Willow" celebrates a new love.

    My only gripe with this album is Taylor's long tracklist. After a while, the songs begin to just sound alike, and you get tired while continuing to listen to similar melodies most of the time, only for the song "closure" to arrive with an almost Charli XCX-like experimental beat. The point is, the album after a while sounds all too similar. That's exactly why the standout tracks I listed are just that, because they are completely different sounds.

    Yet, Taylor's stunning songwriting makes up for these faults, and makes Evermore in my book have a 7.

    I love this album and my favorite songs on it includes willow, marjorie, ivy, gold rush, no body no crime, and more. The only reason why I'm not giving it a 10 is because the last track evermore wasn't amazing, it wasn't bad and the track coney island isn't my favorite but its fine. I still love this album and listen to it a ton, one of the best albums this year.

O patamar onde Swift se encontra é claramente superior à todas as cantoras da nossa nova geração, tendo em vista que Taylor produz exatamente o que quer, quando quer. Diferente da maioria, ela não se encontra presa à estigmas da geração pop farofento é produz faixas tão únicas e singulares como fez com o Folklore. Sendo assim, as músicas "Tolerate It", "Happiness", "No body no crime" mostram um misto de tristeza e felicidade em cerca de 4 minutos e meio., se tornando minhas favoritas do álbum (no momento). Taylor Swift não precisa de aprovação de mais ninguém, ela faz parte e apenas isso. Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Evermore, the second album Taylor released in 2020 is just as good as the first (or maybe even better if that is possible lol) It is more of an alternative rock album but it still has the minimalist, acoustic and folk elements of Folklore. Its an excellent album with so many beautiful stories and highlights. The openor, Willow is a sweet love song which kind of reminded me of Invisible Strings from her previous album. Champagne Problems and tolerate it are these really sad songs about being misunderstood and unappreciated, i love them! Gold Rush is also a lovely song about being jealous of your good looking partner who you think everyone wants, a fairly relatable song. No body , no crime is my favorite song from this album which revolves around a murder mystery , its just so moody and irresistible. This song and Cowboy like me remind me of her older country songs. Happiness is a bittersweet song about moving on after a breakup and its also another highlight for me. Ivy is a song about a forbidden love and kinds of reminds me of illicit affairs from her previous album though it sounds very different. Coney Island is very nostalgic and Matt Berningers vocals here are just so good!!!! Long story short is one of the more fun songs where she is in a new relationship and she recounts her former lover and the bad situation she was it. its a story about hope, picking yourself up and starting over. Its brilliant. Marjorie is also another highlight with many quotable one-liners, i just cant explain how gorgeous this song is. Its about someone who passed away and the regret of not having appreciated them more and also the memories they leave. The production on Closure is very unique and catchy and the song addresses an ex who tries to reach out after a break up- its good trust me! The title track is brilliant. Just like their duet on Folklore it also has a call and response part in the middle and Bon Ivers vocals are amazing!. Its a beautiful ballad. I also really loved the message from Its Time to go, a song about knowing when to let go and taking no **** I love the sentiment of the song, the idea that giving up is not always a sign of weakness. Its amazing. All in all, the album is excellent, her song writing gets better and better. I cant wait for whats next. Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Once again, TS manages to showcase both the depth AND breadth of her unparalleled aptitude for songwriting. If it had taken her two years to create this album, I would have understood why; the album is just that good. The fact that she released two universally acclaimed albums in the course of a few months still blows me away.
    It is my belief that both Folklore and Evermore should AT LEAST have a 90% critic rating. I challenge any other artist to attempt to create what TS managed to do...........in under a year........during a PANDEMIC. As usual, I believe that critics also judge her character in addition to the music she puts out, and they judge it more harshly than they do other artists (why Ariana Grande's Thank U, Next received an 87% is beyond me).
    But the bottom line is that this is a very impressive body of work. Just like Folklore, the production is thoughtful, cohesive, and not over - produced, just as the lyricism is eloquent and the storytelling vivid, immersive, and, at times, gut - wrenching. The marriage of these qualities really exemplifies itself in songs such as 'Champagne Problems,' 'Happiness,' 'Cowboy Like Me,' 'Willow,' 'Coney Island,' 'No Body, No Crime,' and 'Tolerate It.' These are easily some of the best songs on the album.
    There were a few songs I immediately didn't care for - 'Long Story Short, 'Gold Rush,' and 'Closure,' to name a few - but even those grew on me after listening to them a few more times.
    It doesn't matter if you're completely unfamiliar with Swift's work, or if you've never liked it in the past. There's a song on this album (and Folklore) for everyone. And I believe that most listeners will fall in love with it. .

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. O Evermore é mais um passo profundo na floresta de onde o Folklore floresceu. Repleto de uma inovação artística certeira para a carreira de Taylor, o álbum vagueia por diversos estilos e gêneros musicais, advindos tanto das colaborações que a artista fez durante a produção do álbum quanto da grande reinvenção pela qual a cantora tem passado. As canções do Evermore transitam por diferentes aspectos da melancolia. A perspectiva feminina sobre casamentos em crise é um tema recorrente no álbum. A canção “Ivy” retrata um amor proibido onde o eu lírico, uma mulher casada, se vê envolvendo-se irremediavelmente em um romance do qual não consegue escapar. A arrasadora “Tolerate It” narra o dilema de uma mulher em um relacionamento em ruínas onde seu parceiro a trata mal apesar de todos os seus esforços. Já “No body, no crime” é, segundo a própria Taylor, fruto de seu interesse em histórias sobre crimes. Na música, uma mulher vinga a morte de sua amiga, assassinada pelo marido infiel. Sendo uma das poucas canções do álbum cujo tema não é centrado na melancolia e sim, na vingança, o feat com o grupo HAIM é uma narrativa envolvente e misteriosa que contribui para a montanha-russa emocional do Evermore. Montanha-russa esta que passa pelo amor puro e sublime de “Gold Rush”, uma música delicada sobre estar apaixonado e inseguro. A admiração tímida da canção, uma das primeiras do álbum, contrasta com o término cheio de ressentimento e superação de “Closure”, uma das últimas faixas.

    Da melodia angelical de “Gold Rush” até as batidas quase violentas de “Closure”, que transparecem a raiva cantada, o Evermore consegue ser conciso e experimental ao mesmo tempo, transitando pelas muitas identidades que Taylor assume para entregar um resultado final cuja própria identidade é muito bem demarcada. A capacidade de Taylor de assumir diferentes perspectivas para contar as mais variadas histórias resulta em um álbum diverso e repleto de temas abrangentes. Os romances juvenis que marcaram o Folklore continuam a aparecer no Evermore, dessa vez com as canções “Dorothea” e “’tis the damn season“, o romance de Natal que os fãs não sabiam que queriam até ouvirem. Em ‘’’tis the damn season’’ o ouvinte é introduzido à perspectiva de uma jovem celebridade que volta à sua cidade, Tupelo, para passar o natal na casa dos pais. Lá, ela encontra um amor dos tempos de escola, que a faz repensar suas escolhas. Quando canta “And the road not taken looks real good now” (“e a estrada não escolhida parece muito boa agora”, em tradução livre), Taylor representa um rememorar conhecido de formas diferentes por todos os ouvintes.

    Na perspectiva de uma jovem imaginando uma outra vida para si mesma, tomando em sua mente escolhas que não tem coragem de concretizar na vida real, ela pergunta ao público “que decisões fazem você mais feliz?”. A melancolia natalina de “‘tis the damn season” ressalta; talvez essa seja a estação certa para seguir seu coração.

    Através do mesmo recurso utilizado no álbum anterior, Taylor só finaliza a narrativa em ‘’Dorothea’’, onde o outro lado do romance é contado. Na canção, o outro elo da história tenta convencer sua amada a ficar em Tupelo, onde é mais feliz. O final do romance fica a cargo da interpretação do ouvinte, deixando no ar qual estrada será seguida pelos protagonistas da história. O Evermore também conta com canções de partir o coração. Uma delas é “Happiness”, uma narrativa repleta de angústia e saudosismo sobre um término de um relacionamento de sete anos. Na música, Taylor discute a maturidade de perdoar e ser perdoada, e de reconhecer que a felicidade causada por algo que acabou não é invalidada pela necessidade de seguir em frente. É muito difícil ouvir as canções dos trabalhos mais recentes de Taylor e não pensar sobre as músicas autobiográficas do começo de sua carreira. A comparação é quase inevitável entre as experiências pessoais narradas de forma quase explícita em seus álbuns mais antigos e as músicas enigmáticas, repletas de diferentes interpretações e simbologias escondidas que permeiam o Evermore. É quase como se os trabalhos do começo da carreira de Taylor fossem diários cantados por ela, enquanto a nova fase artística da cantora parece entoar histórias vividas em sua mente e coração, tão distantes e ao mesmo tempo tão próximas daquilo que os fãs conhecem.

    One of her best work that she’s ever done, the way this album makes you feel is something else. You feel like you’re actually in that person’s POV and it takes a lot of work to make someone feel that way.

    One of her best body of work. Her lyrics got me speechless. As much as folklore made a its way to the top of pop culture in 2020, evermore comes as a proof that Taylor's creativity is the biggest in the mainstream industry.

    O que eu posso dizer do nosso querido irmão do Folklore! Extremamente coerente do início ao fim trazendo uma proposta um pouco semelhante ao do seu irmão mas! com alguns arranjo mais fortes e letras mais pop, não diria que o Evermore e uma parte 2 do Folklore é sim uma extensão de algo que ja era incrível e ficou melhor

    It is without question a wintering record, but out of this muted musical landscape songs of great and complex beauty emerge. [Mar 2021, p.34]

    Even though we get a catchy moment of goofy, snarling country midway through, the album is a result of the emotional clarity that a year in quarantine provided. Swift has written about curdling relationships splendidly in the past, but there's a new dimension to her writing that wasn’t there before. Onward.

    The pandemic seems to have freed her, given her the space to breathe, and has allowed her to produce her most elegant and sophisticated work to date.
