What the artist means
On ‘mad woman’, Taylor Swift sings over a nicely made beat. Aptly titled mad woman it sees Ms. Swift get into her horror bag as she broods over a hunting instrumental. She's doing her best undertaker impersonation as she goes after her detractors on this one. No one likes a mad woman but we can't try not to fall in love with this version of her even if it's quite rare. She compares herself to a dragon as she once again goes after her detractors. She's mocking critics in a subtle way and reminds them that she's here to stay no matter their hate and reservations. She sounds hurt yet amazing, pained yet free, unhinged yet unabated as she glides over this moody beat. She repeats time and time again that no one likes a mad woman and the fact that the man made her like that!
What the song means to me
The song feels so bad but sounds so good, it's beyond art as it sees one of my favorites glide over a hunting beat and remind the haters that only one person chooses to run the pop game and that's her. The song makes me feel powerful yet weak as it touches the very existence of my previously impenetrable grandeur. I'll love to have whatever spice Taylor had when she wrote this as it's pure artistry in it's darkest form. I will give this song a rating of 10/10.
