The video is really great. Don't miss it. :)
t4p ! :)
That is what she released on the deluxe.
Max shouts: "So annoying"
Nice, i'm listening to the other voice memos now on the album. Very insightful.
would you know of any other artists that have this feature on their album? like the kind of song writing process they have?
thanks
I don't know why, but since I saw her first live show on youtube (like 2009 maybe) I'm seeing her as the perfect movie actress which makes me think if she is really that talented in songwriting or act as she would be talented. The way she listens her own songs and enjoying it. The way she even talks about it. I didn't seen anyone else focusing so much about their songwriting so they add "voice memos" on the album. Of course that's my point of view only :)
Does she mention anything about "Bad Blood" "? was that one she had a demo of ? Or does she mention how it came to be between her and Max and Shellback?
We talked about this when the album first came out.
There's a thread about it.
Thanks so much for this it shed so much light on how to transform your ruffs into great cohesively sonic records.

Quote from: Trihard on January 06, 2016, 12:38:24 PMswift came up with most of the melody
She giving very tricky and sneaky description, not "I wrote it at home and they liked it".
In this Memo she can showing some lyrics
ideas with melody Max or Shellback gave her ten minutes ago (or whole instrumental track with topline) and record lyrics for "Voice Memo". But she made it looks like she accidentally wrote a half of a song.
But Max reacted "Awesome" to lyrics. Not melody.
QuoteWhat we like to do is we like to run a recording on our phones of everything we're doing when we're putting a song together, just in case one of us blurts out a cool melody and then we forget about it, we want to go back and replay the tape so that we can remind ourselves what exactly we were saying.
So I brought in this idea called "Blank Space," and this was me playing it for Max and Johan for the first time and they're shouting out these production ideas like, you know the "Oh!" at the beginning of the chorus, um, and that ended up in the song. So, this is the very beginning stages (not fist listen — me) of the song on the album called "Blank Space."
oh my bad, that explains it. thanks for letting me know, I thought swift was the female max martin for a second
