Jeffery...Once I figure what's going on there I am sure I will love it.
Sometimes the video that I play in my mind for a song is better than the original.
Though she has broke away from the norm...that I do like!
What about your take guys?
No bro. Unfortunately I can't say I am a fan. You know, I love T with all my heart as a person and I think she's a musical genius and angel in this world. But for me, it just misses the mark completely musically. I loved watching the video itself. I think its beautiful visually, completely original, and just unique overall * even though, I had a hard time understanding the concept because it didn't make sense to me. As for the remix itself? I think it's not.. good. I love the regular version of BB and I thought it told a story, just as T always does so masterfully, but the remix takes that away in my opinion. She doesn't even get to sing it.. it keeps getting cut off by the rapper. I just don't get it and that makes me sad. I really miss just seeing Tay and her guitar sometimes..
^^^That is the bro I know^^^
Not afraid to tell the truth...no matter how much you like em.
That in itself proves what kind of friend you would be.
Jeff...if someone does not tell you that you have something hanging out of your nose...
they are not a good friend...that's what I tell em anyway...
when I have something hanging out my nose.
Taylor's video was like being thrown into the action moment from stillness.
Even though I have no idea what is going on here...I guess I'll just jump in the deep end...
and say I like it...not that I do... mind you Jeffery...
I say this only to be contrary
Have you ever put up your dukes...only to hit yourself in the nose?

Others on this forum also have their opinions...
Jo thinks it's great...probably because it is more country than the country put out today.
Kora is probably camping out in downtown washing her clothes in the Platte river...
waiting for her 2 shows at the Pepsi Center.
Mike Nez has way more sense to imbibe in a whiff of Taylor...it's addictive.
Kim still hasn't watched the video...think the power up there is still intermittent.
All the George Strait fans here are way too busy listening to great country music to care.
Then there is Holly ...who probably knows whats happening in the video right now.
For anyone else here...maybe you know whats going on here...

Now if I study the lyrics...I become as lost as ever.
Bad Blood...
(feat. Kendrick Lamar)
[Chorus - Taylor Swift:] Cause baby, now we got bad blood You know it used to be mad love So take a look what you've done Cause baby, now we got bad blood, hey!
[Verse 1 - Kendrick Lamar:] I can't take it back, look where I'm at We was on D like DOC, remember that? My TLC was quite OD, ID my facts Now POV of you and me, similar Iraq I don't hate you but I hate to critique, overrate you These beats of a dark heart, use basslines to replace you Take time and erase you, love don't hear no more No I don't fear no more, better yet respect ain't quite sincere no more
[Pre-Chorus - Taylor Swift:] Oh, it's so sad to Think about the good times You and I
[Chorus - Taylor Swift:] Cause baby, now we got bad blood You know it used to be mad love So take a look what you've done Cause baby, now we've got bad blood, hey! Now we got problems And I don't think we can solve 'em You made a really deep cut And baby, now we got bad blood, hey!
[Verse 2 - Kendrick Lamar:] Remember when you tried to write me off? Remember when you thought I'd take a loss? Don't you remember? You thought that I would need yah Follow procedure, remember? Oh wait you got amnesia It was my season for battle wounds, battle scars Body bumped, bruised Stabbed in the back; brimstone, fire jumping through Still, all my life, I got money and power And you gotta live with the bad blood now
[Pre-Chorus - Taylor Swift:] Oh, it's so sad to Think about the good times You and I
[Chorus - Taylor Swift:] Cause baby, now we got bad blood You know it used to be mad love So take a look what you've done Cause baby, now we got bad blood, hey! Now we got problems And I don't think we can solve 'em You made a really deep cut And baby, now we got bad blood, hey!
[Bridge - Taylor Swift (Kendrick Lamar):] Band-aids don't fix bullet holes You say sorry just for show If you live like that, you live with ghosts (You forgive, you forget but you never let it go) Band-aids don't fix bullet holes You say sorry just for show If you live like that you live with ghosts If you love like that blood runs cold
[Chorus - Taylor Swift:] Cause baby, now we got bad blood You know it used to be mad love So take a look what you've done Cause baby, now we got bad blood, hey! Now we got problems And I don't think we can solve 'em You made a really deep cut And baby, now we got bad blood, hey!
[Chorus - Taylor Swift:] Cause baby, now we got bad blood You know it used to be mad love So take a look what you've done Cause baby, now we got bad blood, hey! Now we've got problems And I don't think we can solve 'em You made a really deep cut And baby, now we got bad blood, hey!

Howdy folks...I was just thinking on this Memorial Day Weekend...
Maybe remembering a bit...seems that I can remember years ago...but minutes ago...forget it.
I would like to dedicate the memory of BB 62 to those of you who never even knew to forget!
Lots of things going on in the world today...but in my Navy days...it was essential for backup.
You know teamwork...where your job...no matter how menial...is essential.
The Big J ...just knowing she was there...made for a very good feeling!

1989 Tour Should Give Taylor Swift Her First $100 Million Year
Earlier this week in Bossier City, Louisiana, Taylor Swift played eighteen songs to a sold-out crowd at the CenturyLink Center, kicking off the North American leg of her 1989 tour. But her performance at the 14,000-seat arena is just the beginning of what promises to be the best financial year of her career so far.
Swift’s tour, which is set to include more than 75 dates across three continents through the end of 2015, should mark the first time she tops the $100 million mark in annual earnings. According to Pollstar, Swift has grossed nearly $2.5 million per stop on the road in recent years.
Both her ticket sales numbers and her unusually-strong merchandise sales figures should grow dramatically as Swift moves on from smaller venues in places like Bossier City to much larger ones in bigger cities.
Tonight, for example, Swift will perform at Baton Rouge’s LSU Tiger Stadium, a building with a capacity of roughly 100,000. Later in the summer, she’ll play back-to-back nights at NFL stadiums like Philadelphia’s Lincoln Financial Field and Chicago’s Soldier Field.
Those are venues Beyonce played with Jay Z last summer–for one night only, not back to back gigs–during a year in which she earned $115 million, second only to Dr. Dre’s record $620 million. In the past three years, Madonna is the only other solo act who has topped $100 million in a single year.
With her 1989 Tour routed through some of the largest stadiums in the world throughout the next six months, Swift seems to have nearly outgrown the arenas most often frequented by solo pop acts and has entered the rarefied financial air historically inhabited by the likes of U2 and the Rolling Stones.
Given that sort of trajectory, it seems quite likely that the aforementioned club of $100 million annual earners will soon have a new member.
Like Nashviller told y'all...told ya so!

Jeff,
I haven't seen the BB remix but I know what your saying about loving Taylor (musically) stripped down..a girl and her guitar.
I'm a big fan of acoustic versions of songs in general. I'll often watch the radio promo versions for that reason and like them better than the more produced versions of things.

Michael, I was thinking about you today and wanted to give you a big, big thank you for your service to our country and to us. Was the Big J one of your duty stations or part of your battle group? She's a fine looking ship. Jeff, If your not familiar with the Navy, they'll deploy ships in battle groups. In a carrier group, there will be roughly 7,500 personnel, an aircraft carrier, a cruiser or cruisers, a destroyer or destroyers and a carrier air wing of 65 to 70 aircraft. Sometimes some other side ships also. ...Here's hubby's old duty station, the USS Theodore Roosevelt. It was sent to the middle east mess again last month to intercept Iranian ships. www.youtube.com/watch?v=iH-mRKAAAI0It's the ship hubby served on during the first Gulf War.

I want to also remember the six US Marines killed in Nepal very recently. They were on a helicopter, helping deliver aid from the first terrible earthquake there when another earthquake hit. Link time.com/3881885/marines-nepal-helicopter-crash-identified/Our military members do so much and sacrifice so much. Capt. Dustin R. Lukasiewicz of Nebraska; Capt. Christopher L. Norgren of Kansas; Sgt. Ward M. Johnson IV of Florida; Sgt. Eric M. Seaman of California; Cpl. Sara A. Medina of Illinois and Lance Cpl. Jacob A. Hug of Arizona were all killed when their UH-1Y Huey helicopter went down near Charikot, Nepal, Tuesday, according to the U.S. military.

Jo I am praying for you and everyone in the way of this flooding. Floods are the worst disaster that can happen...well...all disasters are. Some reason people think that when the water recedes...all is well. It is far far from well...it is just forgotten...until next time. Hugs to y'all!
