She is insane for starting speak now tv off with "you are the best thing that's ever been mine" and ending it with "you still would've been mine" in timeless
Honestly, I get Ashley's logic to brush-off deluxe tracks, but sometimes, I can get *so* determined to buy deluxe albums because GURL, some of the songs can be absolute gems! Prime example: Halsey's Badlands. It may be a deluxe track, but you can't tell me Gasoline *didn't* go on to become one of her most famous songs! And in the case of Taylor, You Are in Love off 1989 is a masterpiece and we all know it. Even Ashley does too, as she's placed *both* those songs at the top of her tier list ranking videos. 👏😉
It's insane when Taylor talked about how much stress she was under when she was creating Speak Now. She had follow up Fearless after winning album of the year and it became the most awarded country album of all time. She just went through a public humiliation after Kanye ran on stage at the VMAs. She's being slut shamed and questioned as a songwriter and singer. Yet she still delivered this songwriting masterpiece at only 20 years old. Speak Now is finally getting the recognition it deserved and I'm so happy for it!
@@itzcandy5896 Never understand why people who don't like her even bothered to click onto a video of her... y'all are just secretly obsessed with her :)
Now that you’ve mentioned Kanye, i’m having a second-hand embarrassment realizing that in Innocent "32 and still growing up now," is about his childish behavior he exuded during the VMA fiasco. Like? why are you as a middle aged man will come out of nowhere to ruin an awards night and bully a 19 y/o up and coming country artist?
and the way it’s mostly white girls who hate her for no reason… like Taylor Swift is the only good thing from your "culture" the least thing y’all could do is be thankful.
@@itzcandy5896poor rich girl? She earned every riches she has. And if all debuts are so every highly praised, why aren’t they having this longevity. You don’t like her music, fine but disrespecting the biggest global superstar of today just because you cannot digest this woman’s success which she works hard for every single day is peak insecure behaviour. Maybe get off of Internet once in a while and breathe.
HI BESTIES THATS MY FIRST TIME DOING THIS 3:48 Mine 7:10 Sparks fly 9:30 Back to december 12:10 Speak now 14:34 Dear John 16:40 Mean 19:05 The story of us 20:06 Never grow up 23:05 Enchanted 27:17 Better than revenge 30:54 Innocent 32:51 Haunted 35:52 Last kiss 36:39 Long live 40:22 Ours 40:36 Superman 40:59 Electric touch 42:56 When Emma falls in love 44:42 I can see you 46:12 Castles crumbling 49:01 Foolish one 50:16 Timeless
her saying "don't you think i was too young?" and yet still directing some of the blame at herself with "i should've known" as if she wasn't A LITERAL CHILD. MA'AM MISS TAYLOR LET ME HUG YOU
this album is the definition of whiplash tbh wdym we going from dear john to mean to the story of us to NEVER GROW UP TO ENCHANTED TO BETTER THAN REVENGE TO INNOCENT???? unhinged queen EDIT: PUT SOME RESPECT ON ELECTRIC TOUCH YOU COWARDS
you are SO LUCKY!!! when i found out "Haunted" was taken I was so bummed and literally nothing but "Back to December" could've made up for it... and that's exactly what we got for ours😭 we are The Lucky Ones lol
My 13 year old Swiftie and I were at the Nashville show night 1 when she announced Speak Now TV. I was SOOOO emotional b/c my daughter was born the year Speak Now SV came out, she was a colicky baby, and I would drive her around blasting the album. To come full circle, be at the show with my daughter, singing every song together, and Taylor announce the rerelease that night...just magical.
The way she was hitting notes in "Dear John," "The Story of Us," "Enchanted," & "Haunted." 🤩 This whole video is just Ashley letting out her inner Swiftie (in direct contrast to her once saying she'd let go of that life) and I'm here for it. 💜🌟
The Castles Crumbling parallels to Call it What You Want had me in tears. The fact that when she wrote CC she felt she was completely alone and it was all her fault, but in CIWYW she has someone, the fact that the metaphorical castle is gone is “alright” because she had Joe with her. Also, I love the When Emma Falls in Love parallel to Ivy, with the “palm of (your freezing/his) hand.
I'm a Switie who joined between Reputation and Lover. And as someone who dislikes country music, I stayed away from Debut, Fearless, and Speak Now. When Speak Now TV came out, I finally sat down and listened. This album genuinely broke me. Back to December, Never Grow up, Speak Now, Timeless...they murdered me. Don't think I've cried so hard since Would've, Could've, Should've.
same! I became a Swiftie during 1989 era, and ever since the masters fiasco broke out, i never listened to her pre-Lover albums (even illegally), except when I hear some of it involuntarily (TikTok)… so this is definitely my first time listening to Speak Now in a very long time.
i’ve been a fan of taylor properly since between Red and 1989 and declared a swiftie between the TVs and Midnights. So before all that, i knew a few songs from the first 4 albums but i was like, 7 years old and i liked all of them but i had no idea who Taylor was lol i just really liked those 10 songs i heard on the radio. So i fully listened to speak now for the first time with the TV release and….oh my god i had the time of my life. i cried a lot and damced around and felt so much joy. I’m currently 20yo so it’s insane to think she wrote this at my current age and it also makes so much sense. I love it, absolutely adore this album in my 20s 🥺🥺🥺 i kinda wish i knew it before but it also makes it so special to have heard it for the first time rn, especially now that she owns it !!!
the thing with Taylor’s music is whatever genre she does she still puts her mark into it. So it doesn’t matter what genre she does because they’re all so good. So if you skipped her other albums just because of the genre then you are missing out. Personally, I’m not a country fan but Taylor’s country music is just top tier. It’s the only country music that I like and that’s because they have the Taylor Swift mark.
I feel like you are the first Swiftie I’ve heard talk about how HYPE Haunted gets them. It never fails to flip a switch in my brain and ALL THE SEROTONIN HITS.
Now Demi Lovato re-recording her songs in her preferred genre rock, as she was always told by studios to do r&B and pop. Now she out here saying imma do what I wanna do. We love liberation and reclaiming power. I think Taylor’s re-recordings are like the ultimate girl power moment taking back her power. I love being a swiftie and reexperiencing my youth as an adult. This album slammed me back into high school.
@@TrueStellarFlower As much as I love Demi's newer music and respect how much more mellow they seem, I still will never understand her take on this. I hate when people don't understand that just because YOU haven't had a bad experience with someone doesn't mean they can't be horrible to anyone else :/
okay when I listened to long live TV I actually SOBBED... like I haven't cried like that in a while. I'm literally just so so so proud of Taylor and how far she's come and how she conquered everything. She's achieved legendary status and I just love her so much
It SO speaks to Taylor’s fanbase that videos of people reacting to decade old songs get 100k views because people want to see other people enjoying their fav. So heartwarming.
Honestly being at the show where she announced this rerecording is something I will NEVER forget. It was absolutely insane. One big highlight of my swiftie life for sure.
It's the Ashley Cat Lady Arc omg. EDIT: yeah, this has been my favorite album of hers EVER. Enchanted was my favorite song of hers. This was my whole personality when it came out. It is absolutely WILD listening to this in my late 20s. (Still can't listen to Never Grow Up w/o breaking down btw)
When you said Taylor writes lyrics like she’s reading our diary, I felt that. I constantly have to like justify my intense love for Taylor, people don’t get it. And I always say “It’s not my fault she writes the lyrics of my life, I have no other reason but to stan”. And Taylor has honestly broken me in so many ways with the accuracy of her lyrics. Putting into words what I was feeling. It’s insane. BUT she deserves jail for When Emma Falls In Love, because who gave you the right to be inside my head. My mom and dad had best friends and they had a daughter who was born 4 days after me, same hospital just 2 rooms over. We basically grew up as sisters. And as much as I love her, I’ve always had this huge inferiority complex with her. Like, it’s something so deep from my childhood that is still there 30 years later, I can’t help it. And then Taylor writes this song and uses that name?! What do you mean??? When she said “To tell you the truth sometimes I wish I was her” like how dare you? The entire song is like she knows my Emma and knows what’s in my head. Anyway. This is why I love Taylor, but goddamn she doesn’t need to hurt me like that 🥲
When I tell people why I love Taylor I always tell them it's because she writes my life down and songs and it's like therapy and she's always helped me through things with her albums it's the weirdest thing her albums there's always at least one song on her albums that just pinpoint exactly what it is I'm going through in life and I need right now every single time it's insane and I absolutely love it!!! Unfortunately the song on this album that speaks to me the most is Foolish One 💔
@@conmom1825 hi, thanks for taking the time to respond! I totally get what you’re saying about therapy and there being at least one song that you need at that time. It is insane, I don’t know how she does it. But I love it too!!! Even now with old songs, there’s always something to help me process something new and sometimes even old wounds. I’ve been saying for years that right where you left me was the song to listen to if you wanted to understand me. I haven’t heard foolish one yet because I like to keep a song or two as unheard so I can discover it later, but now I’m scared she’s gonna hurt me again 😅
personally i love electric touch. (and not only because im a massive fall out boy fan haha) hearing taylor talk about how fall out boys lyricism has inspired her it really felt like a full circle moment when their feature was announced
THANK YOU VALIDATING ME!!! The first time I listened to BTR T.V. I thought it was so different (in a good way ofc) and everyone was only taking about the lyric change and not how different the production/backing vocals were I felt like I was being gaslit by the whole swiftie community 😅
I felt the exact same way!!! I was loving TV so much more than the original and while the lyric change took some getting used to, I can now say it is better in every way
I skipped it after I heard the lyric change but I guess I hear the changes in the production they are pretty good, she probably added it to have something to make up for her lyric change 🤷🏻♀️
And OH MY GOD the way the instrumentation changed for the “No amount of vintage dresses gives you dignity” part! While this whole song (& the changes) are absolutely sending me this was one of my favorite parts!!!
And see, something that I feel people haven't been talking about is her vocals. The new version has grown on me, but I still can't help but feel she's purposely restraining herself? Like, she doesn't sound as passionate as she did in the stolen version? That's what threw me off 0_0
My favorite part about the re-releases is going to my Taylor swift playlist and change all old songs for Taylor’s version. I feel powerful giving my queen her power back. ❤❤
she grabbed hayley by the hand and took her for a walk in the folklore/evermore forest and they came out with one of the best songs in taylor's discography
you posting this in the minute i was going to wash the dishes... don't even need to look for something to watch while doing hahahahhahahaha thank you for one more amazing taylor video of you ❤
okay but her re recording last kiss and it being basically about a different Joe now??? like it was written about Joe Jonas but having gone through what she went through with Joe Alwyn I can’t imagine how difficult that song is to perform live
Castles Crumbling is my absolute love from the vault songs... Little worried what that says about me, im so glad these vault songs got freedom finally 😭😭😭
Innocent doesn't have to be about someone else still having innocence. It can be yours. What happened to you/what you've been through/other people's behavior is NOT a reflection of you. You're still an innocent.
I loved it Ash! My favorite from the vault is "I can see you" and I cried a lot with "Timeless". "Innocent" is difficult to me because of what happened, but her vocals are incredible. And I like the new lyrics in BTR, so smart! I really love this album.
I AM LITERALLY CASTLES CRUMBLING #1 FAN, AND IM SO HAPPY THAT YOU LIKE IT I WAS SO WORRIED YOU WOULDNT. BEST SONG, HER AND HAYLEY SOUND GORGEOUS TOGETHER I CANNOT GET ENOUGH OF THIS SONG.
the story you told about listening to Never Grow Up and relating it to your sister is literally me but instead of a sister, i relate it to my niece and literally cannot listen to the song without having a mental breakdown
I SAW HER PERFORM DEAR JOHN IN MINNEAPOLIS! It was f*cking insane! I had floor seats and a clear view to the stage...i sobbed, the way you sobbed to enchanted. That song has always been my song, ever since this album came out and I'd just broken off my first adult relationship (at 19, mind you) with someone named John. Oof. To see it live... my brain 🤯🤯
I really adored listening to this album! It’s just such a magical and nostalgic album, and I loved the vault tracks too! Electric Touch and I Can See You were my favs from them for sure
i’m so glad someone else feels the same way i feel abt speak now (the song) BC I JUST COULD NEVER GET WITH IT??? AM I MISSING SOMETHING??? nothing has changed my mind abt that song
34:35 from the start of the tour i had only 5 songs that could break me into pieces if they were played and i wasn't there: 1. I Know Places 2. I Did Something Bad 3. New Romantics 4. Dancing With Our Hands Tied 5. no body, no crime THEY ARE STILL INTACT! all of them
Ok so electric touch grew on me after listening to it a bunch of times… And someone on TikTok pointed out that Castles Crumbling feels like the sister song to Paramore’s Brick by Boring Brick… ❤
Okay so I haven't been a TS fan for a while now (I think the last album of hers I really listened to was 1989) but this album was EVERYTHING to me when it came out (I think I was like 16 at the time). And I really did not expect it to hit so hard all these years later, but fuck!!! I had forgotten that 'Never Grow Up' sent me into instant tears as well lmao and apparently that is still true! What a trip.
Idk if y'all noticed (probably yes cuz y'all swifties...ya'll figure things out) but she changed the lyrics on Long Live from "ALL the kingdom lights shined just for me and you" to "HOW the kingdom lights shined just for me and you"
facts about how songs heal during a certain time in life and what lyrics and eras can mean for someone. shooot i was crying before one of my concerts ever started cause of how much that album healed me
I got Long Live as a surprise song on my show and it was the most magical moment singing to her, seeing that smile hearing us kinda dedicate it to her… best moment ever 💜
This album is so nostalgic to me....I am very emotional since she released this....I was in the 9th grade I think when this album came out...I adored this album then, I adore this album now😭❤
the fact I can say I was at the album release show for my favorite album, got to hear never grow up and long live, and saw taylor lautner do a backflip on stage is possibly my biggest flex ever
Speak Now (Taylor's Version) is the best re-record album so far. i'm so excited for the rest of them and i loved Fearless (TV) and Red (TV) but yeah Speak Now (TV) so far is the best
Taylors Version of Better Than Revenge is so fricking gooood....like i relate to it so much despite never being in a breakup but being in a ruined freindship
i completely understand why she changed the lyrics for better than revenge and i think that a lot of people forget how badly she was slut shamed later in her life, so it was different to shame a girl this time after she was on the receiving end
Ash: "Miko, what do you have to say about this album release" Miko: Ash: R I V E T I N G Side note: I adopted my kitty when he was about 13 or 14 weeks old, he is pure chaos, and I adore him Another side note: you will get many scratches from him, I convinced myself that mauling us is their love language
no, the crying to never grow up is real. like when the original came out and i think i was about fourteen, my thoughts were just "yeah, i never want to grow up". but when sntv came out all i could think about was my little sister. i've been right there for her her whole life (she's nine years younger than i am). "your little hands wrapped around my finger", i remember meeting her for the first time in the hospital and now she'll be leaving for college in a month. like, this is now one of the songs i have to skip to protect myself emotionally or i'll sob (currently crying just typing this)
When she said on her tour the other week about how her fans need to not attack those she wrote songs about back then, I took it as don’t say shitty things to Camilla Belle, because to nobody’s surprise, she’s had people in her comments giving her grief for Better Than Revenge ://
Speak Now has always been in my yearly top 5 most listened to albums. I loved the TV of almost all the songs. The new vault tracks just make the album even better then it already was. Last Kiss is the only song I don’t care for the new version and will still listen to the stolen version.
this has to be my favorite video of yours. the feel good vibes, the music, your (and our) genuine passion for this album, the swiftie cat Meeko! It just warms my heart ❤
She is insane for starting speak now tv off with "you are the best thing that's ever been mine" and ending it with "you still would've been mine" in timeless
omg i never even noticed that
oh my god?WQ?W!W?!w

The entire song is like she knows my Emma and knows what’s in my head.
Anyway. This is why I love Taylor, but goddamn she doesn’t need to hurt me like that 🥲
When I tell people why I love Taylor I always tell them it's because she writes my life down and songs and it's like therapy and she's always helped me through things with her albums it's the weirdest thing her albums there's always at least one song on her albums that just pinpoint exactly what it is I'm going through in life and I need right now every single time it's insane and I absolutely love it!!!
Unfortunately the song on this album that speaks to me the most is Foolish One 💔
@@conmom1825 hi, thanks for taking the time to respond!
I totally get what you’re saying about therapy and there being at least one song that you need at that time. It is insane, I don’t know how she does it. But I love it too!!! Even now with old songs, there’s always something to help me process something new and sometimes even old wounds. I’ve been saying for years that right where you left me was the song to listen to if you wanted to understand me.
I haven’t heard foolish one yet because I like to keep a song or two as unheard so I can discover it later, but now I’m scared she’s gonna hurt me again 😅
personally i love electric touch. (and not only because im a massive fall out boy fan haha) hearing taylor talk about how fall out boys lyricism has inspired her it really felt like a full circle moment when their feature was announced
i always love listening to mother with my internet mom
THANK YOU VALIDATING ME!!! The first time I listened to BTR T.V. I thought it was so different (in a good way ofc) and everyone was only taking about the lyric change and not how different the production/backing vocals were I felt like I was being gaslit by the whole swiftie community 😅
I felt the exact same way!!!
I was loving TV so much more than the original and while the lyric change took some getting used to, I can now say it is better in every way
I skipped it after I heard the lyric change but I guess I hear the changes in the production they are pretty good, she probably added it to have something to make up for her lyric change 🤷🏻♀️
And OH MY GOD the way the instrumentation changed for the “No amount of vintage dresses gives you dignity” part! While this whole song (& the changes) are absolutely sending me this was one of my favorite parts!!!
I feel the same way!! The re recorded version I think is much better
And see, something that I feel people haven't been talking about is her vocals.
The new version has grown on me, but I still can't help but feel she's purposely restraining herself? Like, she doesn't sound as passionate as she did in the stolen version? That's what threw me off 0_0
My favorite part about the re-releases is going to my Taylor swift playlist and change all old songs for Taylor’s version. I feel powerful giving my queen her power back. ❤❤

tyy
she grabbed hayley by the hand and took her for a walk in the folklore/evermore forest and they came out with one of the best songs in taylor's discography
I’m terrified knowing the possibility of rep tv now being a step closer with speak now returning to her mother ✨
Finally found someone who loves castles crumbling as much as me and appreciate it
you posting this in the minute i was going to wash the dishes... don't even need to look for something to watch while doing hahahahhahahaha thank you for one more amazing taylor video of you ❤
okay but her re recording last kiss and it being basically about a different Joe now??? like it was written about Joe Jonas but having gone through what she went through with Joe Alwyn I can’t imagine how difficult that song is to perform live
Castles Crumbling is my absolute love from the vault songs... Little worried what that says about me, im so glad these vault songs got freedom finally 😭😭😭
mine is foolish one😂😂
@@michaelasteele77 Foolish One is my 3rd, so I get that 💜
Innocent doesn't have to be about someone else still having innocence. It can be yours. What happened to you/what you've been through/other people's behavior is NOT a reflection of you. You're still an innocent.
I loved it Ash! My favorite from the vault is "I can see you" and I cried a lot with "Timeless". "Innocent" is difficult to me because of what happened, but her vocals are incredible. And I like the new lyrics in BTR, so smart! I really love this album.
This is her best re-record yet! Period.🙌🔥🔥💜
the vaults tracks is so superial
@@fellipe.s2real
Fearless >
@@a.a677Not for me. For me, Speak Now is far superior in every aspect. .
You ate that note up in the story of us 💜
Also, love to see innocent get some love, she IS that song
I keep singing “He was a moth to the flame, she was holding the mattress” 😭 we support strong women
Wait! I thought the words were "He was a moth to the flames, she was holding the matches"
I AM LITERALLY CASTLES CRUMBLING #1 FAN, AND IM SO HAPPY THAT YOU LIKE IT I WAS SO WORRIED YOU WOULDNT. BEST SONG, HER AND HAYLEY SOUND GORGEOUS TOGETHER I CANNOT GET ENOUGH OF THIS SONG.
the story you told about listening to Never Grow Up and relating it to your sister is literally me but instead of a sister, i relate it to my niece and literally cannot listen to the song without having a mental breakdown
Her mature voice is so thirst-quenching
Speak Now (Taylor's Version) Timestamps
I SAW HER PERFORM DEAR JOHN IN MINNEAPOLIS! It was f*cking insane! I had floor seats and a clear view to the stage...i sobbed, the way you sobbed to enchanted. That song has always been my song, ever since this album came out and I'd just broken off my first adult relationship (at 19, mind you) with someone named John. Oof. To see it live... my brain 🤯🤯
I really adored listening to this album! It’s just such a magical and nostalgic album, and I loved the vault tracks too! Electric Touch and I Can See You were my favs from them for sure
ALMOST AN HOUR? ashley this made this awful week totally worth it you have no idea
sending so much love to you and the kitty
i’m so glad someone else feels the same way i feel abt speak now (the song) BC I JUST COULD NEVER GET WITH IT??? AM I MISSING SOMETHING??? nothing has changed my mind abt that song
"It's the same thing just in different fonts". Oh that was a lovely line Ash, really really enjoyed that.
34:35
from the start of the tour i had only 5 songs that could break me into pieces if they were played and i wasn't there:
1. I Know Places
2. I Did Something Bad
3. New Romantics
4. Dancing With Our Hands Tied
5. no body, no crime
THEY ARE STILL INTACT! all of them
am i going insane or is i did something bad on the setlist? anyway my top 5 has one left, she stole ciwyw away and it’s my fav song from her so 😢
@@Izzywildflowerr idsb is not on the setlist 😭
@@vladtzu oh i thought it was i’m going to the eras tour next year and was excited for it rip 😭😭
Ok so electric touch grew on me after listening to it a bunch of times…
And someone on TikTok pointed out that Castles Crumbling feels like the sister song to Paramore’s Brick by Boring Brick… ❤
Wow I hadn’t made the connection with brick by boring brick.
Castles crumbling is so underrated! People are not appreciating it enough!!!!
Your screaming and freaking out is just so good! And honestly, you are so right.
timeless has been my fav ever since i've heard it and i need more people to praise it!!
Praising✨
I managed to get my ticket to see Taylor next year and Enchanted will have me sobbing on the floor. There is just no other option at this point.
I was at the Denver show last night when she sang back to December, it absolutely broke me. I cried the entire time.
Ash, I can’t lie, I spent the whole time watching Miko😂💜
When “Last Kiss” started playing at my show I WAS ON THE FUCKING FLOOR
Finally!! The 1 one review I've wanted to see! I've had the album since release but Ashley's Taylor Swift videos are THE BEST!!
i also never thought she would play dear john on the eras tour
then she infact played dear john for the first time on eras at my show
Okay so I haven't been a TS fan for a while now (I think the last album of hers I really listened to was 1989) but this album was EVERYTHING to me when it came out (I think I was like 16 at the time). And I really did not expect it to hit so hard all these years later, but fuck!!! I had forgotten that 'Never Grow Up' sent me into instant tears as well lmao and apparently that is still true! What a trip.
ashley you can buy the shelfs later but seeing taylor is a one in a lifetime opportunity PLEASE choose wisely
Got tickets to see her in Liverpool and I am praying for more songs from Speak Now
Needed this to end my evening on a positive note
Idk if y'all noticed (probably yes cuz y'all swifties...ya'll figure things out) but she changed the lyrics on Long Live from "ALL the kingdom lights shined just for me and you" to "HOW the kingdom lights shined just for me and you"
THE THUMBNAIL ATE 💯
facts about how songs heal during a certain time in life and what lyrics and eras can mean for someone. shooot i was crying before one of my concerts ever started cause of how much that album healed me
I got Long Live as a surprise song on my show and it was the most magical moment singing to her, seeing that smile hearing us kinda dedicate it to her… best moment ever 💜
This album is so nostalgic to me....I am very emotional since she released this....I was in the 9th grade I think when this album came out...I adored this album then, I adore this album now😭❤
the fact I can say I was at the album release show for my favorite album, got to hear never grow up and long live, and saw taylor lautner do a backflip on stage is possibly my biggest flex ever
honestly im so impressed by your vocals girl
Trust me NO one was ready for Dear John in that stadium… I really screamed and freaked out then blacked out.
i’m such a simple person, ash uploads, i grab a snack. watch it all. 💘
Literally sobbed at Long Live (TV) lyric video with the old music video.
Loveeeeeed it before and it hits different now
Speak Now (Taylor's Version) is the best re-record album so far. i'm so excited for the rest of them and i loved Fearless (TV) and Red (TV) but yeah Speak Now (TV) so far is the best
I literally cried to enchanted and long live… this re-recording hit home on so many levels
Taylors Version of Better Than Revenge is so fricking gooood....like i relate to it so much despite never being in a breakup but being in a ruined freindship
i completely understand why she changed the lyrics for better than revenge and i think that a lot of people forget how badly she was slut shamed later in her life, so it was different to shame a girl this time after she was on the receiving end
to think the sparks fly was written debut era (correct me if i’m wrong) is CRAZYYYY
Ash: "Miko, what do you have to say about this album release"
Miko:
Ash: R I V E T I N G
Side note: I adopted my kitty when he was about 13 or 14 weeks old, he is pure chaos, and I adore him
Another side note: you will get many scratches from him, I convinced myself that mauling us is their love language
Am I the only one who keeps track of Miko in the background while mom Ash is freaking out? He's so cute!
Why was noone talking about how good ashley sounded while dear john. ESCUSE ME MAAM!!
no, the crying to never grow up is real. like when the original came out and i think i was about fourteen, my thoughts were just "yeah, i never want to grow up". but when sntv came out all i could think about was my little sister. i've been right there for her her whole life (she's nine years younger than i am). "your little hands wrapped around my finger", i remember meeting her for the first time in the hospital and now she'll be leaving for college in a month. like, this is now one of the songs i have to skip to protect myself emotionally or i'll sob (currently crying just typing this)
Never grow up BROKE ME. Instant tears, and I also think about my little sisters when I listen to it :')
Truely my fav re record yet! I think her mature voice sounds AMAZING on all of these songs😭💜
When she said on her tour the other week about how her fans need to not attack those she wrote songs about back then, I took it as don’t say shitty things to Camilla Belle, because to nobody’s surprise, she’s had people in her comments giving her grief for Better Than Revenge ://
Speak Now has always been in my yearly top 5 most listened to albums. I loved the TV of almost all the songs. The new vault tracks just make the album even better then it already was. Last Kiss is the only song I don’t care for the new version and will still listen to the stolen version.
The editing in the was superb. One of my favorite videos so far, it was so funny to watch!
this has to be my favorite video of yours. the feel good vibes, the music, your (and our) genuine passion for this album, the swiftie cat Meeko! It just warms my heart ❤
hello from 2024! SN is what made me a Swiftie so that's my top fave TS album. SN TV just made me love it even more.
YESSSSS BEEN WAITING FOR THIS!!!! HER BEST ALBUM 💜💜💜
Truer words have never been spoken.
I disagree personally, folklore's her best imo
@@lanadelreyheyso valid!!!!! love all of her albums but speak now is def my fav:)
Somebody on TikTok said Castles Crumbling is for all the burnt out gifted kids and honestly how dare they attack us like that like ouch
