I honestly hate most covers of pop songs that are slowed down for max soulfulness and played on acoustic instruments.

Ryan Adams' 1989 is bad. Lorde's Everybody Wants to Rule the World is bad

I am so mad at every reviewer who says these covers "strip down" these songs to "find" the pathos at their heart

why don't we "strip down" Hamlet's soliloquy so he just says "I'm sad and I want to kill myself but I'm too weak" and cries

the whole power of a song is the interplay of form and content, lyrics ironically or unexpectedly interacting with melody

everyone who "discovered" the regret and pain in Blank Space when Ryan Adams did it sad is fucking stupid

I don't think Blank Space contained any semblance of pain and regret. She's not phased by the subject at all.

If anything, what makes it an interesting song is the fact that she's seemingly unbothered by her actions.
