Hey everyone, it's Early Access Day! This will PROBABLY be my final Musical Autopsy of 2026, as I start getting ready for The Ten Worst Songs, but I think it's a pretty solid one to hold you over for the next... 8 weeks? Don't hold me to that, but this year's Worst Songs will PROBABLY be December 19th. In the meantime, enjoy!

Doc Buckley is summoned to the Musical Morgue to dissect the song that finally managed to knock Ella Langley's record-breaking "Choosin' Texas" (which has already been Autopsied!) off the top of the Hot 100. Taylor Swift is now in her mid 30s, married, and SURELY has more to talk about than "guys are mean to me" right? Oh, she sure does, now she's singing about how "guys that were mean to me are mean to someone else!" Also, I don't think she knows what "Patient Zero" means...

I'm pretty sure she doesn't need to jump on the country bandwagon because she's got enough money and enough of a cult following... Er, "fanbase" to keep her charting

At least Taylor Swift’s country stuff had *some* upbeat stuff… same as her first two pop albums… it was still shit but it was at least upbeat. The last ten years have been nothing but slow electronic music with the excitement of eating boiled chicken. Boring and bland.

Ugh, Taylor Swift. A victim of arrested development when she was what, 15? I mean the only thing I have heard her do that wasn't a high school weeper was that song she sang about Travis's errr... Member. Ridiculous. And wouldn't you know, my 87 year old husband is a fan? 🙄🙄

God we need music back

I'm not sure "enough money" exists in the vocabulary of any entertainer.

The Malcolm in the Middle reference was fekkin brilliant.

The slide at 6:23 should’ve been the thumbnail, summarizes things quite well 😂

Watched this sprawled out in the starfish position just like Tay-Tay

As much as I dislike her on a personal level and as an artist who is an equivalent of a cardboard cutout of an unsalted cracker- the production on her vocals during the hook is very good. If I tried to layer charmonic lines on vocals like that it would be a noise, her team can make it sound somewhat pleasant. If someone likes her tone- they're in for a treat in this one so I can partially understand the appeal. The talking part is gas though.

This is like a worse version of Taste by Sabrina Carpenter
