Taylor Swift - Karma

[InFamous]

because some people in twitter had said that the remix wasn't released to chase an exact position in the charts LOL

It was said here on the previous page !!

In early predicitons it is set to debut at 3.

Sorry but why exactly would she release a remix if it wasn’t to improve the chart peaks? Not sure why you’re stating it as it it’s a revelation. Of course it’s for that reason. Every single artist does that for that exact purpose.

and I’m glad you added the “we’ll never know” statement. We know nothing about her personal life or about when this remix came about. So you’re right - we’ll never know.

Great visuals, but still don't like this remix at all. Such a pointless release, imo. At least, Bad Blood with Kendrick was something good and different from album version.

I finally listened to the remix. Ice Spice's part, if viewed isolately, is surprisingly good in a way that it exceeded my (honestly rather low) expectations. However, I agree that it feels a bit copy-and-paste. It's not really an upgrade, which it could've been if the whole song was reworked and not just the 2nd verse + bridge replaced by Ice Spice's rap part. I'm thinking of Beyoncé's Break My Soul Madonna remix, which was a good example of how a remix can improve a song.

I love the vid! However, I'm not a fan of the remix...

[cheapthrills]

Anyhow...

I've liked the few songs that Ice Spice is on prior to this, but here, the flow doesn't really fit for me. She feels just kind of stuck in there, like a bad photoshop.

In that case, better send the video to German-based Turks. The last election had regions with up to 77% Erdogan-approval rates.

Germany has to ban dual citizenship or at least shouldn't allow them to vote in Turkey's election.

[theMathematician]

I can't at people saying Erdogan will lose elections today because lightbulbs are exploding in the video and lightbulb represents governing party. Her impact!

I’m sorry to continue with this but we know how the remix/versions treatment works in 2023. A lot of people does from SZA to Rosalía, from Beyoncé to Nicki, etc… is not as it was 10 years ago.

And as for Taylor, we know she is capable to pull another #1, but it seems like Midnights was overshadowed by its lead single, like Endless Summer Vacation was when River was selected as the second single.

Of course will help the chart run but it’s obviously that the major goal is for a improvement at the chart peaks and that’s completely fine, if y’all so blind to see that, y’all better know and understand that that’s a practice that all the artists have done.

What is problematic is that she choose Ice Spice while the person she is dating treated her in derogatory terms and he laughed of her. That’s why it feels unauthentic from Taylor’s side, but she’s so good at managing this kinda stuff that we’ll never know… and I don’t understand why it is so hard for her stans to accept that some of us this is what we think… we’re not ten years old kids… I know we have to defend our favs, but sometimes we don’t have to agree with everything our favs think/done

Ignore him, he said the other day that he wished Ice Spice could disappear from the world

I don’t f*ck with Taylor stans, they’re as brave as the Britney and Gaga stans…

[westhammer]

I don’t see how those are related tbh!

[InFamous]

You have been like a broken record to be fair

Despite the trash remix, the video is stunning, very beautiful. I wonder what the ‘5 minutes to midnight signifies’ or what other Easter Eggs are in the video

I don’t think we need this explained tbh, and every opinion does not need a rebuff

[westhammer]

Oh congratulations on your likes from other pressed stans lol.

And yes, simmer down luv. Get outside, get some fresh air or sth.

The remix doesn't do much for me, but I love the original. If it's gonna get more attention on the song, then I guess it's a win.

[InFamous]

I only said that Matt is an a**hol3 and the remix is bad, I feel sorry for Ice because I like her a lot.

You could've written that in nicer words, basticasas !

[Cless]

The OG version is perfect as it is. This remix is so unnecessary tbh

[basticasas]

once again the stans cannot handle that some people didn't liked what her favourite white artist did... the remix is bad, doens't add anything to the song, also is a very damage control situation for what the a**hol3 she's dating said bout Ice Spice months ago... everything seems so unauthentic bout this... and we all have the right to like or dislike, get over youselfs please...

[InFamous]

Why are you so mad?

Lol at you starting something and now acting all shocked/ playing victim when I respond. Forget it.

OT - Song is utter trash, completely ruined the original which is awesome and one of the best on Midnights.

Ah, that explains the tag in the Top Answer Game lol

I don't care if people don't like her, it's not about that. And "simmer down please and get over yourself" ... what? My post having so many likes proves I'm not the only one who feels like you've been showing a certain behavior towards Taylor (or at least how she releases her stuff). It's called doing it in a passive aggressive way. You've been repeatedly downgrading her success by mentioning that she has released like hundreds of versions, only does well due to radio payola etc. - which is fine, I mean, as a fan I don't even disagree with all of that. But you don't have to repeat it every time and all the time. And that's what's annoying.

What are you ever talking about? Serving pressed stan. I was very positive about Midnights and really like it. There are plenty of people on this site who are extremely vocal about their dislike for Taylor so simmer down please and get over yourself.
