Instead, she’s trading them in for more mature, darker lyrics with a hint of funky, electropop that we haven’t heard before. Albums previ- ously laden with first kiss ballads have morphed into “1989,” which is Swift’s first exclusive pop album. With each lyric of the 13-song album, Swift embraces a “haters gonna hate,” reck- ask.fm/mandyadvice less abandon that was all but expected of her new album. With synthesizers and drum machines galore, the new tracks are multi-layered. “Out of the Woods” is particularly hard to sit through, as Swift repeats “Are we out of the woods yet?” a v whopping total of 29 times in a style that is reminiscent of Enya and some African war chant. Dear Mandy, Part of me wonders if she’s just conforming to the pop music that bogs down my radio, or if she’s actually twisting pop music into something different, something new. Unlike most, Swift uses her swing to pop music as her declaration of independence, when it’s usually the How do I get Justin Bieber to notice me? I’ve sent other way around. him e-mails and letters and commented on all his While a few songs on the album are difficult for me to listen to as a Swift fan, others fulfill Instagrams, no response. I’m anxious for the day I everything I ever thought I needed from her.

How do I remain patient until we meet and he realizes his mutual feelings for me? aCCordinG to 106 Give me advice, please! wsu students surveyed Suburban Suzy Dear Suburban Suzy, Let’s begin with the obvious question: Why on earth would you want to touch Justin Bieber’s butt—sor- ry—his glutes? How do you know his bottom is firm since it’s hidden so well behind that baggy denim? Maybe your imagination is playing tricks on you, and you somehow are seeing a butt oasis that isn’t there in real life. It’s really just a shimmering mirage, far in the distance. A butt mirage. It’s time to take a long, cold drink of reality and get back to civilization. Love, Mandy Everything and more Lindsey Roberts Contributing Writer [email protected] love “1989” because it makes me want to dance. The CD player in my car has truly nev- er been happier. The windows are down, the vol- ume is up, and all the drivers in the cars at every stoplight are staring because I am singing at the topI of my lungs and I’m dancing as much as I can behind the restraint of my seat belt. The catchy tunes run through my head all day and I seem Disclaimer: to annoy everyone around me by singing “Shake It Off” constantly.
