On July 24, global music superstar Taylor Swift released her eighth album, « folklore, » as a surprise, and it was the musical treat that everybody needed in 2020.
This 16-track collection was produced by Aaron Dessner, Jack Antonoff and Taylor Swift; moreover, it includes a collaboration with Bon Iver. It is perhaps her most compelling studio album to date.
It opens with the nonchalant, piano-laden « the 1, » and it is followed by the soothing « cardigan, » which has a haunting vibe to it. Equally moving is « the last great american dynasty, » which showcases her storytelling ability like no other.
Bon Iver lends his harking vocals on « exile, » which is a soaring collaboration made in musical heaven.
