Hearts & Numbers - Taylor Swift - Folklore

Folklore

by Taylor Swift

I was sitting in the garage during pandemic, listening to records and reviewing them for the Facebook group when this album dropped. 

What they hell have I been doing with my? Taylor Swift goes into a cabin and writes records. I hadn't picked up my guitar in years. 

So, it had me wondering what I actually thought of each of her records and, instead of reviewing the records I am just going to listen to them and rate the songs based on how they hit me. Do I like them? Do I want to add them to a playlist? Would I "love" the song enough to give it a heart on Apple Music?  And what number out of 100 would I ascribe them. 

So, that's what I'm going to do. Hearts & Numbers.

After listening to Folklore, and I mean really listening...this is a remarkable album. A pop folk confessional masterwork.
