Taylor Swift's music video for Style was released today (or yesterday?)

She rly is killing it with this album - apparently its sales have far surpassed that of her previous album Red, and that's been out for a bit over two years now. Crazy stuff.

The director of this video really loving loves True Detective.

Style is no one in particular

It sounds kind of vaguely like Drake's "Hold On, We're Going Home"

Also I don't know if she counts as pop (especially with this album)

Mods please rename this The Vagina Music Thread since we all know men who aren't Tom Petty can't into catchy hooks

I saw a (not-so) stupid Buzzfeed article titled "Proof that Taylor Swift's Style video was actually meant for Clean" on my Facebook newsfeed and I think I actually agree with that. It's a nice video, but it isn't with the right song - definitely would suit Clean more. Kinda bummed about it now

I like it a lot on first listen. It's very pretty, in the best way possible.

This song has been my loving jam.

Verses are good and kinda moody/needy, chorus totally changes the feeling of it, breaks up any momentum the song had gained, and makes the song a big snooze.

Tay Tay rules, though the Style video is obviously awful.

Prepare yourselves, Call Me Maybe 2.0 is nearly upon us.

I heard Kelly Clarkson's new song on the radio and it sounded like a modern pop version of Jimmy Eat World's The Middle.

That's what it reminded me of! I couldn't place it.

It's a surprisingly good song, I'm glad she's trying something different. It seemed like for a while every Kelly Clarkson song followed the exact same pattern (loud chorus, vaguely inspirational lyrics, Max Martin-by-numbers production) but this one seems much more original.

Here's a pretty good Florrie song. Warning - contains crimped hair and she pronounces Mario as mare-io.

Here's a pretty good Grimes song. Warning - is basically a demo and contains footage shot on an iPhone.

I still haven't listened to the whole album but all the Froot of the Month tracks were great! Already got it on iTunes but I always double dip for a physical copy of Marina in April.

This song is really great as well.

She is playing in Vegas on April 13, I really wish I could attend that. The drive from AZ would not be long at all for me. I am seeing Lana Del Rey in Phoenix in May though, so i'll just be happy with that.

For me, it's all about Solitaire.

And Blue, Forget, I'm a Ruin, Can't Pin Me Down, Savages...most of the album, really. I love it.

Hopefully she announces her North American tour dates soon. She's playing at the Field Trip festival in Toronto but none of the other acts do anything for me, and attending JUST for her seems like a waste.

They sure know how to put on a show, considering it's just the two of them. So good

Going to see Charli XCX on Friday with a couple of friends, but having watched her latest video (Famous) and seen the angel wings, crop tops and lip balm on sale in her merch store... I've realised we may have horribly over-estimated the age of her fanbase and this will be the most awkward gig ever as we prop up the bar feeling uncomfortable while everyone else at the gig has been dropped off there by their parents.

I saw her in October last year and she owned bones. I was afraid of the age group too, but it was not nearly as young as I thought it might be. Some older teens, but it felt like mostly 21+. It was in spooky Detroit, though, so it may have scared off younger fans/over protecting parents.

This happened when I saw Nicki Minaj in Oslo a few days ago. It was me, my friends above 20+ but everyone else there were 13-14 year olds.
