    1989 is the true definition of a cultural reset. I mean, Taylor was really everywhere with this one. None of the tracks felt like cheap pop, and the MUSIC VIDEOS. Lord, her team said fuck a budget.
    As for Reputation i still think people took it the wrong way. It was meant to be satirical and show Taylor embracing the medias criticism and what they viewed her as.

I think I meant the statement for the album as a whole. Obviously gangnam style and harlem shake were equaly iconic or rather more, but I think I rather meant how taylor and the album become a global phenomen. I am gonna add TMM LP 2 to my comment quick

    I think 1989 made taylor swift , the 'It' girl of our generation. A woman that a lot of young girls looked up to and also at the same time a woman that was ruthlessly criticised for anything she did. A pattern.
    My mother told me how much people hated marilyn when she was alive, how madonna was hated in her peak, janet after superbowl,how britney was crucified. Taylor is really the 'it' girl of our generation.

    I never cared about music until I heard the 1989 singles. When I heard blank space for the first time I was in total shock. I never knew it was possible to make a song that good. I thought she was some genius or something. I thought that was her only good song. I didn't even know she had about 4 albums before that full of great songs. That's just how big she is. Crazy thing about her is that she never falls off. She always manages to beat her previous self by making even greater projects.

      I don’t know... kim and Kanye did a lot of damage. The amount of hate she and even Swifties got was honestly kind of shocking. I remember back in 2016, I said that the phone call seemed edited because of the cuts in the middle of it and my goodness, the amount of death threats and insults to my intelligence was absolutely ridiculous. I can’t even begin to imagine what Taylor went through... she’s definitely stronger than a lot of us think.

    1989 was truly the best pop era of the 2010s. It had it all - great music, commercial success, chart domination, critical acclaim, awards and a huge tour. Pretty sure Slant’s decade end list called it ‘the Thriller of the 2010’s’... and you know what... it kinda was. Obviously not on the same level but in context of the music industry at the time - hit after hit, monster sales, and Taylor was absolutely everywhere. It was just huge.

    The problem with Reputation was that it came out after 1989 (the biggest of her career). People were naturally comparing the two to each other. The same way how people hate sequels that would have been good on their own because they liked the first movie more

    I used to be a huge fan of Taylor, I listened to 1989 practically every single day. Her newer music seems to cater to her fanbase rather than general public appeal. Which can explain why it seems that her popularity has taken a dip, but I can't deny that she is still very popular.

    I also feel like Taylor released this album at the right window. By late 2014 through early 2015 there weren’t many major pop acts releasing music.
    Katy Perry was wrapping up the prism era, Miley was wrapping up the Bangerz era, Rihanna was on hiatus, 1Direction hype was dying etc. Ariana & Meghan Trainor we’re still fairly new.
    And then by the end of 2015 was when Adele dropped her 25 album so Taylor definitely filled the mid 2010’s gap in popular music

    taylor swift. she never misses. she's a rare one. her discography and career is fascinating. she's so intelligent, genuine and skilled. she deserves her fame and success. her impact can't be denied. she will be celebrated for many years to come. she's done everything right.
    1989 may not be her best album. but it is her best era and the most successful of the 2010s. no one, no one could've done what she did. she was everywhere for a reason. and while she'll continue to find new and more success, that era will always stand out.
    i do believe that she gets better with each release. folklore has to be her best album to date. but all of her albums are so her, they all hold so much meaning and importance.
    what a woman. she makes me proud.

      @mirror ball Taylor has had several peaks. This idea that stars are only allowed to have "a peak" is ridiculous. Taylor peaked with Fearless, had a resurgence with Red, peak with 1989 and started ascending back with reputation and Folklore.
      Ariana recently started becoming a main popstar so she definitely has a lot of years of success before the GP throws her to the elephant graveyard with other female celebs they grow tired of. It's sad but true

    Oh the 1989 era, a once in a lifetime era. The last good AND massive pop era we witnessed. But it was not only successful, but also the album tracks were quality songs and the album was overall acclaimed. I have SO many good memories from the time 1989 was murdering every single chart and radios all around the world were blasting Shake If Off, Blank Space (my fav 1989 single), Style, etc.
    This era is the definition of a cultural reset (a real one, not those basic pop eras that only make noise in stan twitter) in the modern days along with Lemonade and maybe 25. In fact, it's still charting in the BB 200 with over +300 weeks on the chart. Insane. The hate Taylor got after it was so unnecessary, but I guess people were tired of seeing Taylor constantly winning so they hated her for the dumbest reasons.
    Btw, Blank Space is one of the BEST and BIGGEST pop classics from the last decade. That song is just flawless.

      I feel like Ariana Grande's lowercase era (Sweetener/thank u, next) has become the last massive pop era though. Literally, all of her singles were inescapable. No Tears Left To Cry, God Is A Woman, Breathin, TUN, 7 rings, and Break Up With Your Girlfriend I'm Bored. You couldn't go a day without hearing one of them in public. She also has a massive fanbase.
