Also remember that the “boy” was a 30 year old man who was treating his daughter pretty terribly. That’s why that line hits so hard. It’s like her dad is gently reminding her that she’s still young and life should be fun.
I mean... He was 29, not 30. It was a big age gap, but he didn't keep it going when he realised she loved him significantly more.
@@emmavink he turned 30 like 6 days after she turned 21 so close enough.
Dang! I’m Chilean ❤ I never knew. Definitely subscribing. I love that your wife is teaching you Taylor
@@emmavinkBut not before standing her up on her 21st birthday
Yeah what a guy 😂
Right an older man gaslighting a young girl.
"Oh they're just kids" SHE was! He was not haha
Ope Ali pointed it out at the end!
She was not a kid. She was just young lol.
Ran to the comments to say this
she was an adult, just a young adult lol
She’s directed every music video since “The Man”.
For real? Geez she doesn’t miss
except for “i bet you think about me”
@@mxh098yep Blake Lively directed that, right?
@@robbyten100yes
And she was co-director for You Need To Calm Down and then even before that she was always very involved in the creative process of her music videos
"I wanna punch him." Every girl dad ever. That was my first thought, too! lol!
Also, she's directed several of her videos. You should check them out. For a lighter side of her music (and something you'll love as a girl dad) is The Man. She both stars in and directs it. There's several behind-the-scene clips from filming out on the interwebs that are particularly entertaining. You might get mad that she's also epically hilarious! lol!!
Fun fact: Taylor said when she used to perform this song she could barely get through it without crying,
but hearing her fans yelling back the words to her made it a joyful experience... ❤
It also made it to be one of Taylor’s favourite songs to perform!
Cue 7 million Swifties gathering to annihilate Gyllenhaal for making mother cry 😂. Hey, I'm 57 and want to him sorry!
At the Eras tour, I sat down and cried the entire 10 minutes
But John Mayer is still much worse. (Dear john)
shoutout to your wife for pointing out the lines about how the relationship was inappropriate age-wise/his pattern of dating young girls. a lot of people miss that :)
The son is 10 years old and Jake's current gf is 24 😂
@@kristadawson9859 “And I was never good at tellin' jokes, but the punch line goes”
I am so glad she got Dylan O'Brian to do this. He's one of my favorite actors and has never gotten the credit he deserves
He is amazing at his roles. He is also really nice and Taylor agreed he fit the role really well. I loved him in his other roles as well including Styles and his assassin role.
Someone else pointed out that her repeating the phrases “I was there” and “I remember it”, especially at the end as the song fades out also shines light on his extreme gaslighting. It’s as if she’s having to constantly remind herself it really happened the way she remembers it vs how he probably tries to convince her it happened
Thank you, I never thought of it that way.
Same 💕
Yes
It’s cool when someone thinks she’s not worth the hype and then take time to really listen and realize she’s a true talent and musical genius. Writes, plays many instruments, directs. That is why she is adored by fans of all ages.
The best part of this video is watching your wife get silently frustrated at you for talking over the lyrics lol
lol yes it's kinda adorable
Literally every single time it went into the new lyrics😩
Every single time lmao
The song was always originally 10 minutes. But she had to shorten it for the album it was on. And her fans always knew the ten minute version existed, so when she did her re recording of Red she included the ten minute version of the song and blew everyone’s mind.
Also, she wrote and directed this video. As she’s done with like almost all of her recent videos
It was 30 minutes, then 24, then 10, then 5:)
The reason her very personal and specific lyrics are relatable to so many other people, I believe, is because they’re relatable enough to be able to apply your OWN specific pieces that can equate to the same _feeling_ her lyrics are giving. The situations are specific, but the emotions behind them are what people relate to. Like people say, Taylor Swift has written a song for you. Whether you like her or love her or hate her, doesn’t matter. You have experienced something in life that there is a Taylor swift song you can feel like was specifically written about you personally. It exists. You just have to find it.
I love this comment❤ very well said.
Dylan Obrien played Stiles Stilinski in Teen Wolf and he was the main character in the Maze Runner movie franchise, Love And Monsters and American Assassin, as well as costarring in multiple other feature films.
Classic gaslighting... Shes telling him how a situation made her feel and hes telling her shes acting crazy, being selfish, until she starts to feel like maybe it was her fault then he sarcastically says "I'm sorry" a dozen times!!
The thing that drives me crazy is that Sadie was wearing a promise ring before that one scene (“That’s how babies are made, hope they’re married!” was hilarious), and then not after. And THEN he drops the, “If we were closer in age…” bomb. Like…dude. Are you for real right now? You knew her age when you got together! You knew it when you took that from her.
And with the pen and newspaper, it looked to me like they were finding a home together. Like he’d led her to believe it really was forever, which is the only reason I can think that she would give up that promise ring for him.
And then he didn’t even have the courtesy to go to her 21st birthday party… (“The Moment I Knew” describes that in more depth.)
Seriously, he was almost 50% older than her (21 vs 30)… It was his responsibility to be sure before doing that with her, you know?
Anyway. Sorry for the rant, haha. Loved the reaction. Your wife is a gem.
I haven’t even watched this reaction yet and i love Sebs journey. I was an ‘anti’ swift, not a hater, just not a fan. But folklore and evermore turned me. Now I love watching others who were once like me actually start to get it. Start to understand her popularity, something I never understood. People don’t have to love her, or become a swiftie, but an understanding and appreciation I believe, i dont’ want to be presumptuous, I think Sebs may be coming around.
The song came out in 2012. I was 18 and just went through my first horrible heartbreak and would listen and cry to this in the car everyday. Now I’m 29 and I still can’t sing it without crying. I love that the 10 minute version is the real version she originally wrote. She didn’t add to it, she had literally sat down at her piano back when she was writing the Red album and her mom recorded her singing for 10 mins straight and this is what came out of her mouth lol. Genius. Will always be my fav Taylor song ❤
during the argument - i hope ali told you that a lot of it was improv! it was supposed to cut sooner that it did but taylor loved the actors chemistry so she kept the camera rolling. i think it’s also super important to acknowledge there was a huge age difference with taylor and jake just like with her and john mayer that made the whole fight scene (the entire relationship really) even harder to watch because of the obvious power imbalance :( also love the lil bit of relationship advice thrown in there for free thanks ya’ll haha
she didn't even watch this before she wouldn't know
@@everysongends i missed that part, my bad
That is Dylan O’brien and he was in the Maze Runner movies among others as well as The MTV version of Teen Wolf. He also guest starred in some good TV shows.
Always fun to see new Swifties coming to appreciate her work. The 10 minute version of ATW came out on her re-record of Red in 2021. While she’s directed and co-directed several of her MVs now, this was considered a short film because of the extended dialogue scene. Note that there’s literally a gas stove with a big light over it in-between them in that scene. Swift also makes really effective use of set design and lighting to explore the characters. In the scene where they’re dancing in the kitchen, the bf is shown in cool light while Sadie’s cast in warm light.
And they seem to be doing The NY Times crossword puzzle in the scene with the newspaper - a time-honored couples activity. Seems very Gyllenhaal-coded because some people might consider it slightly pretentious, and very Taylor-coded because she’s such the wordsmith. There’s also a making of video if you want to see Taylor in action as a director. Interested to see what she does with the feature film she’s slated to write and direct.
Fun Fact about All Too Well
1. It was originally written as a 10 minute song but she had to cut it down to fit with regular album length
2. She didnt think much about the song hence not making it a single but turned out fans love it so much. She used to not be able to sing/perform it cause it made her cry. But she said fans loved the song so much and gave the song new meaning for her.
3. The song is allegedly about the relationship she had with an older guy and the line "turning 21" was because the older guy skipped her birthday party and she waited for him. The other perspective of this moment could be seen in her other song titled "The Moment I Knew (Taylor's Version)".
4. Fans keep asking for her to release the extended version (10 minute vers) so when she re-recorded Red (Taylor's Version) in 2021 and she had more creative freedom in producing her album, she decided to record the 10 minute version, made it a single, and made a short film/music video about it.
5. One of the amazing thing about this song is that there is no repeated line/verse except for the lyric title 'All Too Well'.
6. The only time she performed the 10 minute version on television is for SNL in 2021. You should check that live performance too!
7. Since this is arguably one of her best songs and also a major fan favourite, it becomes the fixed regular setlist on every of her tours along with her other hits like Love Story (Taylor's Version).
THIS
So, here's the deal. I'm a massive Tool fan, and have been since their conception (I'm 49), and I'm also a massive Swifty, and wise enough to know I can be both.
I’ve had to admit, like you, that she’s an amazing lyricist. I actually think she might be a genius. I’ve become a fan in the last year or so, much to my surprise. 😂
This was a great reaction. Really all of them are on this channel
And omg her trying to keep her head from exploding every time he stepped on a great line was priceless. I was cracking up 😂
i just love Taylor's ability to write something about herself and it's so relatable. even if it's not right now or the entire song, there is always something that comes to mind in our own lives. it's so powerful the way her POV is singing it to us but then it shifts to talking to him directly. even before this short film, this song was like reading a book, you could visualize the story.
Remember that the red scarf is actually not literally a red scarf, but that is her symbolic way of wearing it. He took her virginity… that will always be on him. That is not something you can give back.
Omg I feel like I manifested this 😭😂 yay your wife is back && it’s the reaction I wanted to see 🥺
I’m not gonna say I dono’d for it lmao I give you permission to accept the credit 😁
What a beautiful, yet heartfelt song. Such an amazing song from Taylor Swift. She is incredible to have both directed & sang it, what a beautiful young woman she is. 💝💝
The "double cross my mind" lyric is one of my favourites also!
I can’t even express how magical this was live, it was everything I hoped for and more!
Y’all are my favorite couple. Period. Thank you. I’ve been hurt so many times. I’m 44 years old and never married. Engaged twice. You give me hope that real love and a healthy relationship are possible. I love you guys.
This is such an amazing early twenties break up song. I can relate so hard. I'm 42 now and this makes those memories feel so fresh. Chokes me up every time, even though I'm completely over it lol! My favorite lyric is you kept me like a secret and I kept you like an oath.
I love seeing guys get converted to being Swifties!
And the line "I might be ok but I'm not fine at all" hits me every time even though I've heard it God only knows how many times!
i cannot express how much taylor makes me feel with every single song.there is a reason her audience is so passionate about her and a reason she is the most famous singer in the world BUT her lyricism and talent is still somehow underrated
Great reaction! You're a switie now, Sebs. Love to see both of you reacting. Not surprising to see the Neruda quote. His poetry might well be one of Taylor Swift's inspirational sources. He's certainly one of mine.
And the fact that this is the longest song ever on hot100 in history....
15:39 No Seb lol. SHE was. She was 20. Jake… Jake was 32. Hence the line where she mentioned he said that maybe if they had been closer in age things would have been fine
Jake was 29 afaik, I think you're confusing the age 32 to John Mayer
This song is sooo amazing. The 10 minute version is actually the original song she wrote on her early twenties but she couldn't release the full track at the time. The lyrics are brilliant and so beautiful, it absolutely deserves its place on the Rolling Stones 100 best songs of all times list
She is a princess ❤
Really enjoying watching you discover the lyrical genius of TS. Ps. your beautiful wife looks a little bit like a very young Sheryl Crow. Big hugs to your beautiful family. xx
I'm in a very healthy relationship now, but that argument scene feels so very real to me that it definitely cuts through my heart with a bit of pangs from the past every time I watch it.
Taylor dated Jake Gyllenhaal when she was 20 and he was 29 or 30, apparently he didnt treat her very well and then when he dumped her he told her it was because she was too young!
"is Taylor Swift a princess?" is absolutely what I'd be thinking if I were a child right now! She's everywhere and foreign dignitaries are begging her to visit their countries. 😭
Sometimes, I think when people watch The Short Film, they forget that this song is told from a true-to-Taylor perspective and from her understanding of how that relationship played out. I like Sad Girl Autumn version, and it's easier to remember that she lived the story she's telling. Check it out, even if it's on your own time!
This was awesome y’all are the best much love beautiful souls this was rumored to be about idk if it true but about Taylor swift and Jake Gyllenhaal they were 10 years apart also to answer sebs question the dude is Dylan O’Brien he played stiles in the show teen wolf he was in movies like first time,maze runner 1-3, American assassin, and love and monsters and the girl playing younger Taylor is Sadie sink from stranger things as max she was in movies like fear street 2 & 3, dear Zoe, Eli, and the whale hopefully the info helps thanks for the reaction 🫶🏽🎶🙏
Taylor is a Queen! 😎
Really enjoyed this reaction to this short film made by T,S...I'm new to her music too, so I've been watching a lot of her interviews...learning what an incredible person she is. Want to suggest to watch " Taylor Swift/In Conversation/TIFF 2022!! There is a lot more to this movie than I would have caught before hearing this interview!! It's way too long for a reaction(55 min) but I promise it'll be worth your time!!!
I'm seeing Tay Swift in Edinburgh Scotland next year, so so excited!!!
You'll most likely know Dylan O'Brien from Teen Wolf or the Maze Runner movies
I'm 68 and only became interested in Taylor being a lifelong Chiefs fan. Aware of her career in the country genre , hearing an occasional pop song never listening to a complete song. When feeling down or needing to check out, I would slap on the phones to Pink Floyd. I am in obsessed with Taylor Swift!! Lyrics in her songs are amazing! Melodies set up the chorus lines in many cases an added bridge is catchy. I stopped trying to reject her music last year, now except it as true art. This girl is a generational phenom. The "Era's" tour is nothing short of what a top athletes would produce. 44 songs nightly for 3+ hours to sell out stadiums. Like Led Zeppelin in the 70"s The Era's movie is amazing.
We drove to see her in Houston, amazing show. Now we found out she’s coming to New Orleans next year….so we going again.
I was at the Houston one too and have tickets for the Florida one next year!!!
I'm so glad I found you guys..
❤
A princess singer! That's so cute!
Im a little surprised neither of you mentioned how young Sadie is/looks compared to Dylan, also with that line about "If we had been closer in age maybe it wouldve be fine" I dont know if you picked up on it but thats a pretty huge point in terms of what went down.
Taylor had been 20 and turning 21, Jake was 29/30 years old
One of my favorite lines from this is "You kept me like a promise, I kept you like an oath..." And she calls back to it later with "You call me up just to break me like a promise." later on. It's so good.
Same plus "so casually cruel in the name of being honest" genius. And the "crumbled up piece of paper" metaphor 🥹 this whole song is a literary masterpiece
She sings the10 minute version on Saturday Night Live, while the film runs in the background. It was such a great performance. I really loved the end.
not sure this was comments on already but... the 10-minute version is the original version of the song when she wrote it but had to cut it down to "standard" song length of 3-4 minutes to be in there Red album. And the guy is Dylan O' Brien who's in Teen Wolf and the the lead in The Maze Runner :D
that was a good reaction ! you guys are so cool , i hope you get tickets for next years us leg
"Is Taylor Swift a princess?" *cries*
Your channel showed up in my Google news feed. Congratulations! 🎉
Taylor said she originally wrote the 10-minute version and had to cut it down. And she did it on the spur of the moment when she was just hanging with her band. And fortunately someone recorded it while it was happening. It was not written on paper or anything like that. It was just something she 's had to get out and was singing...
We had tickets for London, but ended up reselling because we didn’t get the rest of the logistics in order.
Ever since seeing videos of Queen’s performance at Wembley, I’ve always wanted to see an epic show there. We were in London a couple years ago and our hotel was in the shadows of Wembley. Harry Styles (my youngest’s other favorite) was playing the night we were leaving for Paris. She got to hit up the merch stand at least.
She’s most likely gonna get tix for Miami. As much as I’d like to see her, not sure if I’m gonna go on that one. Might just let it be girl’s trip.
Cheers!
This is a fantastic video/movie. There’s so much rawness in it.
After seeing Sadie Sink’s performance, I can’t picture anyone else doing that part.
I love watching your interactions together ❤
She was working on the NYT crossword puzzle in the paper with him. She’s an excellent lyricist; why didn’t you want to admit that?
His inattention to the lyrics is hard to watch 😂
always waiting for tylors reaction from you guys keep going
You finally did it!!
I really like you guys’ reaction. I think Sebs would find it doesn’t go over his head ; but her writing in this case is very dense, and if one talks a lot during her music it’s easy to miss something. For myself I have to listen to her songs several times to get it all.
Do parts of the Reputation tour!!!!! Those are some of her best live performances! And 1989 world tour!!
I dont know if you know the backstory of this song, she was dating Jake Gyllenhaal at 19 years old and they broke up before her 21st birthday, its was like a toxic relationship she had, but the worse person she ever dated was John Mayer, i dont know if you reacted to dear john but that song was about him. I know other people know more about the jake situation then i do.
Oh I told him alright lol
She was 19 when she dated John mayor not Jake g.
I hope she’s able to, or both of you are able to, make it to the next leg of the tour 🥺
He doesn't even hear these deep and poignant lyrics. He's too worried about the actors.
I’ve never seen the ending before, so good. He’s out there somewhere kicking himself rn. Tell your daughter that Taylor is a self made princess, not like those ones in the books who were born princesses, she worked for it and that’s better.
We have all been waiting for this lol!
the video actually came out while I was going through a relationship that I would like to think is freakishly close to the one Taylor wrote this song about, and I did in fact sob for weeks when saw it.
He missed the "refrigerator light" line grrr. It's such an incredible line to be in a song.
This song is written from Speak Now World Tour in 2011.
That ticket thing is called “coverage”. All venue reserve a small number of tickets for last minute celebrity or other VIP tickets. Many times filled by concierge desks at luxury hotels, etc. same thing for sporting events. If you know what day/time the pull the plug on coverage and will sell tix to well informed / savvy buyers. I used to score 49ers tix at Candlestick Park in SF by going to the will call window at noon the day before games and ask. “Do you have any unused tickets from coverage”?
It would be fun of you or hopefully you and your wife react and post your reaction to her behind the scenes for the making of this short film. That will give you more sense of her personality and hands-on abilities as an artist.
The song actually started as a 10 min song and they cut it down to the shorter version for the album. Since the song became a fan favorite she decided for the re-recording of "Red" to put out the 10 min version.
I need a video of his wife explaining to him the jake gyllenhaal of this song, I love that I'm seeing the evolution of Sebs appreciation for tswift and her multifaceted ways.
Really like your reacting together.
I love that advice. “Assume positive intent.”
You're chilean? omg so am I!!🇨🇱❤️ just found your channel a few weeks ago and had no idea! this is really cool
You guys are awesome ❤❤
you kept me like a secret but I kept you like an oath is such a crazy line
The actor is Dylan O’Brien. He’s very talented and even played the drums for Taylor’s song, Snow on the Beach from Midnights.
omg we want more reactionnsss for ts ... i love you guys videos of herrr
My friend, I'm old now but I will share with you what my late father said about being wrong... " Sweetie, you weren't wrong, just uninformed". No haters here... We love your reactions because they're genuine.
Remember every relationship teaches you something about relationships and yourself. The good and the bad.
She actually wrote the ten minute version, alone crying I think in one take. Her mom recorded it. She shortened it for the album- then she released the full version when rerecording. ❤
Sabía que eras latino pero que genial que seas de acá!! Saludos desde Chile lindo!❤
hahhaa when Love Story first came out, I was like 11-12yo who didn't have any global knowledge. Couldn't tell apart between UK and US to know that one is governed by royalties and one by presidency (I'm SE Asian). I also thought Taylor was a princess-singer too 🤣
Dylan O'Brian has been in a lot of things. Teen Wolf and The Maze Runner movies are seemingly the biggest ones.
1 bit of info. She was 20, he was 30.
So many people misunderstand the dialogue where taylor freaks out over the whole "you dropped my hand" part. So many people seem to be thinking it was just an example of how Jake was insensitive and gaslit her and it certainly was. But it was moreso meant to demonstrate how the age gap really affected the relationship. Obviously, the whole hand thing was pretty minor and silly but Taylor being so young, it meant alot more to her than it would to a 30 year old. So it just goes to show how Jake was just too old for her but the fact he was with her, he should have been prepared to handle those sort of things because he's older and there is an obvious maturity difference. Its such a great example of why most age gap relationships never work out and aren't healthy. Especially if the older person is still somewhat immature for their age which Jake obviously was.
@jm531b2 oh I know, I was just saying what the scene represents. It was excellent acting, they are both fantastic actors and they DEFINITELY understood the assignment lol
Love your reactions. The dynamic between you two is so good. Would be even better if you wouldn't talk over the song. Please rewind to before your comments. Another great song to review is Taylor's live concert version of Dear John.
I mean I understand being sad not to be able to go and see Taylor, and I would never pay for the insane resale price (even more because I fear these tickets might get cancelled in Europe as they are name specific). That being said I have tickets for 3 dates in Europe next year, but not London which is where I live, and if I can get my hands on tickets at face value for one of the 6 dates in London, I'll go again!
2:49 at this point i dont really know about his thoughts on Taylor but i do know he is a great husband...I mean i am not marrying a man who does not take me to a Taylor Swift concert nope!!!
Dylan O'Brien from Maze runner and Teen Wolf I thought he looked familiar. I love this song and video ❤
