Taylor told the sell-out crowd that 'Folklore' will always be a record that is special to her because it helped her grow as an artist. She said: "'Folklore' is an album that I'm always going to be so proud of.
When I play favourites with albums it tends to be the ones where I change things up, because that's always the most exciting thing for me. Journalism for the curious Australian across politics, business, culture and opinion. "‘Folkore’ was really unlike anything I'd had made before that, not just in the way that it sounded but also in the stories that I was telling.
Before 'Folklore' a lot of my music was very like dear diary today I felt a feeling for, like, four seconds, here's an entire song about it. Which is very fun to do, it's very fun to write like that but it's also fun to write the way I started to write on ‘Folkore’ which is creating fictional characters, make them go through stuff and feel things and have drama unfold and they have that happen to them and I write as the narrator, that's a blast it turns out.” Taylor - who worked on her eighth studio album with The National's Aaron Dessner and Jack An.
