Taylor Swift names ‘LUX’ by Rosalía and ‘The Art of Loving’ by Olivia Dean as two of her favorite albums from the past year — when asked about how technology could never replace the creative process of making music: “If I look back to the past year in music, there are two perfect albums that I love and return to over and over again: Olivia Dean [The Art of Loving] and Rosalía [LUX]. Olivia’s album feels like a warm hug. I listen to it constantly, in almost every situation. Rosalía has created an ambitious, conceptual and expansive album that could have only been born from her own life experience. These two records are amazing because they are human; that is why we as human beings connect to them. It seems to me that when humans create something so extraordinary, that should, in the first place, uplift the rest of us and inspire us, as well as make us feel that we indeed keep winning. We humans keep winning in this fight [against technology].”
