Taylor Swift's 1989 is her first official step away from her country music past. The album is pure pop bliss and floats effortlessly with such smash singles like "Shake It Off", "Blank Space", "Wildest Dreams" and "Out Of The Woods". She’s left country behind, sworn off dating and built a fortress around her heart
The album, named after the year she was born, treats heartbreak as if observing a painting on a wall, rather than a feeling she desperately needs to articulate. Grandiose memories of 2 a.m. fights and dancing in refrigerator light are replaced with glossy odes to big cities and weekend flings.
1989 is extremely cohesive: all the songs are clearly of a piece. It’s almost like she wrote a thesis statement on a whiteboard two years ago and derived all of the songs from there.
