Time to hear number 400, which is the 2019 hit from Taylor Swift, "Cruel Summer". I can only imagine this is the first of a few by Ms. Swift. For your listening pleasure, here is Cruel Summer.
Best Attribute: Production value is quite good. The underlying beat, works. It's fun and directional for the song.
Worst Attribute: Too poppy.
Worst Attribute: Too poppy.
Best Line: "Devils roll the dice, angels roll their eyes." - I love the dichotomy.
Worst Line: "But ooh, woah - oh, it's a cruel summer with you. I am sure Taylor could come up with something better than this.
Would I listen again: Sure, if it's a mixed-company, all-ages event, and I need some new-ish pop - it works.
