"Ruin The Friendship" by Taylor Swift: A Return to Form & The Life of a Showgirl Album Highlight
"Ruin The Friendship" is a new song from Taylor Swift's twelfth studio album, The Life of a Showgirl. This song is a standout track from the album–sonically, conceptually, and lyrically beautiful and revealing. This song contains some of the best storytelling on the album. This song combines sonically whimsical, pop, and light country elements, which makes sense as it relives an experience that has carried over from high school. Taylor Swift started her career in high school, making country music, which transitioned to country-pop, which transitioned to full-blown pop, which transitioned to indie/folk, which transitioned back to pop. You can say a lot about Taylor Swift, but you can't say that she's not one of the most prolific artists of today…or of all time, honestly.
