It might seem out of place but Taylor Swift's Lover album would not be complete without The Man. Lover is an album packed with love in every form. Whether it be romantic love, love for a friend, love for the parent or even love for yourself, almost every track is oozing with the feeling of love. And then there's The Man which is decidedly not. Sitting proudly in between two of the most emotional tracks on the album, 'Lover' and 'The Archer', 'The Man' takes a break from the album's theme to ask an important question. It's a thought experiment on what the world would say about Taylor Swift if she had 'made all the same choices, all the same mistakes, all the same accomplishments', but has done so as a man.

No men were harmed in the making of this video,” reads a disclaimer at the end of Taylor Swift’s new music video for “The Man.” This comment is particularly ironic considering that the video centers around Taylor Swift’s male alter ego, Tyler Swift, played by Swift herself — with the help of impressive makeup and hair styling. The forthright lyrics of Swift’s feminist pop song, the fourth single from her most recent album “Lover” in which she imagines how people would perceive her if she were a man, speak for themselves. “If I was a man, then I’d be the man,” she sings in the chorus. The witty and intelligent video emphasizes Swift’s power to help foster a culture of equality as she rejects the sexist double standards that have been imposed upon her for her entire career.

This song is one of my favorite songs right now. I love when it comes on the radio and I even asked Alexa to play it. Love the melody in the chorus. Taylor Swift is an incredible artist and her songwriting team are on the top of the list of talented people in the world. I like her pop stuff a lot, as well as her country songs. I didn’t like 1989 that much but I like everything she has done after that.

the theme of Taylor Swift’s Lover is right there in the title. These 18 songs are odes to the things she loves most and knows best: her boyfriend and her mom, the West Village and the West End, and, always and forever on a Taylor Swift album, being in love. It’s an exuberant celebration of the challenges of maintaining a relationship through seasons and across continents, of telling the truth and saying sorry. Swift has always mined her personal life for opaque fables of love and retribution; she memorializes a romance’s fleeting details, wraps them in bows, and ferries them to an audience eager to receive her gifts. She writes about a life that’s strengthened, not broken, by heartbreak. Lover is the suggestion that the right person, the right song, might lift heartbreak from your life, too. The concept is, as she claims early on, both “overdramatic and true.”

I'm not basically a Taylor Swift's biggest fan but I gotta say that this song pretty much made me one, this song is a wonderful melody to listen to and the message behind it is just lovely, the way the society treats women nowadays and put the man on a pedestal, I know I'm a man myself but I do have eyes and I can see everything clearly without blindly supporting my gender. This song is gonna be an overall definite chartbuster of the YEAR!

Wow one of the best albums from Taylor Swift ! Her voice is just amazing and the lyrics perfectly suits the visuals Melody was okay compared to her previous works but instruments and vocals did the magic. Will rule the Billboard charts for sure. I liked this one completely but expected little more thats it!
