Mirroring the theme of unattainable love in “Dress” from artist Taylor Swift’s earlier “Reputation” album, “Maroon” features her color theory about love. Colors are basically a given when it comes to Taylor Swift songs. From passionate reds to golden glows, most of her albums include an entire song dedicated to a single shade. The “Midnights” song “Maroon” is her latest — and represents Taylor’s masterful storytelling.  Three seconds into “Bejeweled,” I questioned if Taylor was pranking us by including this song. There is no story, no passion and no voice. If this was a scrap of an early album, I’d be less confused. Taylor, what happened? This song is childish, materialistically obsesses on jewels and features generic lyrics like “What’s a girl gotta do? / A diamond’s gotta shine.”  If there’s a larger metaphor to such a bland song, I — along with the rest of the fandom — am not seeing it.
