Co-writing means nothing at the mega-pop industry level, and starts having little meaning far before that. But, if you are genuinely under the impression that it has meaning, I have a bridge to sell you.
The source for my claims of brilliant songwriters writing her entire early career is visible in Genius for everything pre-Lover.
No, she really only started to write with “Lover”. Prior to that, it was Antonoff, and prior to that it was a lot of different writers/ghost writers.
I also don’t think she’s just a figure head. I appreciate everything she’s done to get artists paid more, I think she’s a good role model for girls/women, etc. But, I do not think she’s a talented song writer. She’s not a multi-instrumentalist. And, she is a billionaire, hoarding wealth like all the others.
She’s just lately a decent songwriter. For most of her career, her songs were written for her by the heavy hitters behind virtually every top 100 hit. Her producer/mixer/writer Jack Antonoff still does most of the heavy lifting.
I am tired of seeing the sentiment that she’s some brilliant songwriter–she really only kind of plays the guitar. The reality is that if anyone is made to be a billionaire, and work with one of the best musical minds of our time (Antonoff), and collaborate with the other top song writers/ghost writers, of course, a decade later, they’ll be able to write songs. It was never some innate talent of hers, or else the songs she truly did write early in her career would have been the hits, instead of the mutually agreed upon worst on the album.
I can’t stand cats that meow a lot. My heart goes out to you, OP.
Have you tried putting them on probiotics? My dad’s boxer used to eat poop and putting him on probiotics stopped the behavior.
Bad at managing their finances
Either you’re being purposefully deceitful, or you have a horrible understanding of macroeconomics. But please, let’s just continue to ignore the elephants named record-inflation, rent records and housing crisis in the room.
Don’t forget destroying the budget of mental health facilities, causing people to be sent out on the streets in droves, without resources. That is the biggest reason for our homeless crisis to this day.
That reminds me that one year, my cousin’s boyfriend got her a $1500 coffee machine, a flight of syrup and like a $500 giftcard to a local coffee shop for beans. Turns out, she was cheating on him with a woman at the time, and she broke up with him like 1 week later to be with her. It took all of us chewing her out to give the poor guy his present back so at least he could recoup the ~$2200 he spent.
Ethan Chlebowski does phenomenal cooking videos and deep dives into the science of food, specifically if some expensive ingredients are objectively worth the cost.
Fascinating Horror does unique videos in that they are discussions on all man-made or natural disasters. Great audio and video as well.
H0ser does fantastic videos on countries and economics with some humor, and cute animals to represent countires.
Horses does brilliant essays on a variety of topics, all of which are interesting and researched very well.
Nick Crowley does creepy, scary, and true crime like a lot of others, but puts a lot of effort into his editing and aesthetic.
Nexpo is largely the same as Nick Crowley, but with deeper dives and longer videos.
Professor Leonard has the best calculus series on YouTube.
Oh, that’s great!
Yes. Especially the original in Santa Fe. Everyone I’ve met from outside of New Mexico thinks Denver started Meow Wolf, which is sad.
