Billy Corgan is defending Taylor Swift over the length of her recent album, The Tortured Poets Department. The pop star’s latest offering was one of the more highly anticipated albums of the year.
But received plenty of backlash when it clocked in on at over two hours spanning 31 tracks. Speaking with The Irish Times, Corgan was talking about Sinead O’Connor’s musical legacy when he shifted his focus to Taylor Swift while making a point.
Corgan reasoned that he would love to have found that O’Connor had a lost tape of material and feeling that fans would embrace anywhere from 20 to 50 songs.
He then mentioned Swift, “Taylor Swift is one of the most gifted pop artists of all time. How is it a bad thing that she’s releasing more music? I can’t follow that … You can go on Spotify and just skip it.”
