Statts1976uk Posted April 14 Share Posted April 14 She's one of these artists who seem to make pop songs to keep the money rolling in but do pet projects and collaborations that actually interest her, Lady Gaga is much the same. My 10 year old daughter is crazy about her, I suppose there are worse acts for her to be into. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I wasn't almost 50 I'd defo be going to Murrayfield to see her. 😁 I went to see her at the tender age of 51. I did have an 11 year old in tow though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Costanza Posted April 14 Share Posted April 14 My 5 year old has Shake It Off on her playlist but currently would rather listen to Everything Everything and a hocus pocus cover of Blondie so that's beneficial for my ears. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
been here before Posted April 14 Share Posted April 14 Never knew she was playing at Murrayfield and really couldnt name any of her songs though Id probably recognise a few if I heard them simply due to not really being able to eacape them. Decent legs though so fair play to her. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Madjambo21 Posted April 14 Share Posted April 14 I belive she is that popular when she does a tour I America it positively effects the GDP He's tour that she recorded and played in cinemas made over 100 million.

I did have an 11 year old in tow though I wasn't prepared to spend €1,500 on two "experience" tickets for the Aviva, but I did try hard to score regular seats at about 10-11 venues across Europe. That might have ended up costing as much or more with flights and hotels, but at least I could have made a holiday out of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although i wasn't impressed with the last time I saw them in Glasgow... As for Taylor, she has a few good tunes (Blank Space is a very well written song), but I wouldn't listen to a whole album of her music. If she's helping Hearts make money through the hotel's dynamic pricing then all the best to her. Better than when my favourite singer chose to play Easter Road back in 2005....

FWJ Posted April 14 Share Posted April 14 Hard to believe that people who use the internet have never heard of Taylor Swift. ‘Shake it Off’ is the only song I could name, but I’m sure I’d recognise plenty more if I heard them. The excitement around this reminds me of the Bowie concert at M’field in 1983. Can’t believe that’s over 40 years ago 🤦♂️ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Randy Marsh Posted April 15 Share Posted April 15 I often AIRBNB my spare room. I was amazed when some French girl booked it almost a year in advance last summer. She messaged me to say she was going to the Taylor Swift concert so it makes sense now looking at the cost of hotels etc. If I had known about this I could have bumped the prices up massively.

We could hear "a noise" while we played - couldnt make out what it was however the next day the Evening News headlines was about the noise levels of the Bowie gig. IIRC was that the first gig at Murrayfield? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No doubt one of the special editions will have a different image on the cover. It'll be interesting to actually hear the songs. Swift's legions of fans (and her legendary marketing machine) will deliver the sales figures, but the fans are gonna be disappointed if the songs don't live up to the hype.

As for her work ethic, she released a new album in 2019, two during the pandemic, another in 2022, and recorded her current album while on a world tour that doesn't end for another eight months. She also re-recorded four of her previous studio albums in the same time period - making them worth more than the originals and widening her fan base in the process. Nine worldwide number one albums in five years is a remarkable output by any standards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
