Source

Reputation CD extract

Article

Delicate (Taylor Swift song)

Portion used

It is a sample of no more than 10% of the original length from a much longer recording, and could not be used as a substitute for the original commercial recording or to recreate the original recording.

Low resolution?

It is of a lower quality than the original recording.

Purpose of use

It illustrates an educational article that specifically discusses the song from which this sample was taken. The section of music used is discussed in the article in relation to the song's lyrics, musical and vocal style, and may contain part of the song's chorus. In particular, the song's chorus where Swift sings the lyrics "Is it cool that I said all that? / Is it chill that you're in my head" over a muted pulse was a point of critical analysis. Later on, the dense synthesizers instrumentation, and the vocoder effects are also meant to illustrate the song's composition.

Replaceable?

It is not replaceable with an uncopyrighted or freely copyrighted sample of comparable educational value.

Other information

The audio sample is a copyrighted work. U.S. copyright laws apply to this work. Should a free or public domain sample be located, it should be used in place of this audio sample. The use of this excerpt is in good faith, and that its inclusion enhances the quality of the article without reducing the commercial value of the recording from which it was extracted.

Audio cut to 10% of 3:52 = 23.2 seconds, then reduced to mono at 32 kbps.
