>The vocal is drenched in reverb

>song just fades out

>melody stops
>just bass drum on the first beat and vocals come

The Suburbs

Hospice and Suburbs from the top of my head.

Nothing wrong with a solid Truck Driver's Key Change.

So many of Taylor Swift's songs follow this EXACT formula. Very boring. Many other popular pop songs follow this formula too. Roar by Katy Perry is one that immediately comes to mind.

Come to think of it, this exact song structure and composition, along with lots of repetition in the chorus, and a one-note/monotone verse melody are supreme calling cards that the song was written by Max Martin. I can't think of one major pop hit song written by Martin that doesn't follow this EXACT formula.

downbeat is fine, but cheery, breezy whistling is horrible
