In No Body, No Crime, Este gets murdered by her husband after she confronts him about cheating. Because Taylor and her were friends, Taylor puts the pieces together of how the husband has new shiny tires and he moved on real quick, like too quick, and the mistress is now sleeping in her bed. Taylor then talks about how she knows how to clean a scene and get a boating license (which she would use to leave the scene), and how Este's sister is her alibi. So basically she kills him, and the mistress is framed because she took out a large life insurance before he died. So the gist of it is, Este is killed by her husband, and then Taylor kills her husband.
Yesss, I think the new tires mean Este slashed them when she caught him cheating, OR his tires had evidence of where he dumped the body. But Taylor's boating license helped her hide the husband's body, she dropped it in a lake somewhere probs
@@siobhanmcshanehill895 so just like Tay I watch a lot of true crime stories and what I know is that they can identify car just from the tires traces, it's kinda like a finger print for cars
Exactly!! The husband killed Este and then Taylor(the friend) killed the husband and Este's sister is her alibi swearing she was with her that night. Luv this song!!
Hey Anthony, I know it's a bit frustrating when people are mostly interested in your reactions but know there are a lot of us who are here for your talent and your deep musical opinions.
Btw Taylor said last night that there is no direct continuation of the Betty/JAMES storyline but she imagines Dorothea goes to the same school as them!!
I think the fast beat on tolerate it is kind of representing the anxiousness of knowing you lose someone and also like her heartbeat when she's saying the chorus.
Love this!! I could see her wanting this in the studio. The beat is kinda chaotic and unpredictable which is the feelings you have when anxious. Great point P.S. instagram/Twitter @ anthony96jr 🤍
This album was just.. wow, I don't know why but Evermore touched me in a way that an album hasn't done in so long (even more than Folklore, and that should tell you something hahaha), I usually never cry listening to music, but yes... Marjorie made me BAWL
If someone doesn't get emotional when listening to that song then somethings wrong.My younger brother died a few months ago and he inspired me during his life.Tears came flowing last night when I was listening to it.A great tribute to the one who influenced her in music.Cant you imagine how her grandmother would feel to see her become one of if not the biggest greatest artist of all time.Selling out stadiums around the worrld and winning every award there is. Thanks Taylor's grandmother for inspiring her so we could experience such great music.
I NEVER cry to songs. I only have like 20 songs I’ve cried to which isn’t bad. Majorie is added to the list. I still love folklore but this has a chance to grow past that. Hope you enjoyed my reaction. P.S. Subscribe if you haven’t! Instagram/Twitter @ anthony96jr 🤍
@@becka2737 thank you so much for the kind words. 2020 has been a cruel yr. But I never thought it would bring this kind of sorry..That song had me tore up.Such a beautifull tribute to a loved one who had such an impact on youre life .Can't you imagine if her grandmother could see what her little granddaughter has become with her influence on her to love music and to see her become one of the biggest superstars that there is.Selling out stadiums,winning award after a award and see her achieve her dream as a child to now have such fame that few could ever reach.And not become a person who has lost their connection with everyday people and to to be humble and appreciative of what she has acheived.That speaks a lot on how someone's influence can affect you're decisions so much.Thank you Marjorie for being that person who so many now get to receive that gift of you're influence.
The most haunting thing about Tolerate It is that she spends the song saying she’s strong enough to leave… but the last line is how she sits and watches him because she never did 😞
Folklore broke me, Evermore picked me up Folklore left me wondering, evermore gave me closure. It came full circle for me. Marjorie is a song that I'd listen to only when I'm emotionally steady again. I had no parents and my grandma brought me up all by herself. If I wrote a song for her, this would be perfect. It's been 8 years since she passed away but because of the memories that song evoked in me when I listened to it the first time, I actually saw my grandma in my dream last night. So, I'll be skipping that song for some time for obvious reasons. About the album, on my first listen, a lot of songs from Evermore kind of threw me off and left me confused. But then I listened to both albums back to back over and over again. And it all fall right into place. Believe me when I say it will all come together the more you listen. Great video as usual. My homeboy came through and delivered. Cheers!!
Hey!! Just wanted to thank you for always showing me support. I’m sorry for your loss. I’m sure she is guiding as an Angel. I lost a lot of people in this last couple of years and i do believe in energy and auras still being around. Also, Glad everyone came in full circle. ❤️
@@AnthonyAikenJr thanks man. Appreciate your kind words. God bless you and your family. And hey, you always give us something to look forward to each time. So you deserve all the support you're getting from this community. Respect 😇
I think that Champagne Problems has some of her relationship with Calvin in it. There was a reference to turning down a proposal in the LWYMMD video (a ring box in the robbery scene) as well as in IDWLF ("Wondering if I dodged a bullet or just lost the love of my life").
I need Anthony to be invited to a secret session. If there was one person other than me I would want to see be invited it would be him haha. TAYLOR PLEASE NOTICE THIS GEM!
That makes it 10x sad!! Do you think there is a link between this song & New Year’s Day P.S. Subscribe if you haven’t & my Twitter/Instagram is anthony96jr 🤍
im pretty sure “‘tis the damn season” and “dorothea” are conected. dorothea is this girl who moves to la so she can get big and all that but she leaves someone who she had a relationship with on her home town. on christmas she comes back and reconnects with that person and thats what “‘tis the damn season” talks about. “dorothea” is the other person’s version.
There’s a show on Netflix called “Easy” with this EXACT story line. It’s the episode with jake Johnson in it. I wonder if she was inspired by it to create the song the way that “something great” inspired death by a thousand cuts 👀👀👀
That’s because poems are up to personal interpretation. We all have our own life experiences and we all experience everything differently. For someone to spell out word for word what something means would be to break individuality.
I want to say how much I appreciate finding another black man who's able to appreciate Taylor's creativity & music. So thank you... But Yoooo, you did "cowboy like me" dirty.😆 Yeah it took me at least 3 listens to get it - 2 cynical con artists finding each other, opening their hearts, changing their ways & locking it down (I wanna believe they stayed together). And the guitar solo, what?! Beautiful. Now, I love it!
love your analyses of her lyrics. Marjorie gets me. Its so personal and I can't listen to it without crying. Her grandmother passed when Taylor was 13 yr old and was an Opera singer. If you go back and listen to it, the final chorus when she sings that she can hear her singing to her, there is a track of her grandmother actually singing opera in the background. And, Taylor lists her in the credits as singing background. Its a lovely song. Especially using the phrases that her grandmother taught her.
Thank you!! Majorie is the one too. Especially know that info. I can tell this is personal for her. It’s one of those songs you love but it’s hard to listen to without crying P.S. Subscribe if you haven’t & my Twitter/Instagram is anthony96jr ❤️
@@AnthonyAikenJr Oh I'm subscribed. I've been following your TS journey, I've been doing my own by following yours. I never thought it, but the past 5 mos I've become a TS stan. Who knew?
lmaoooooooo she is NOT saying 'let's be friends' in closure. she's saying sure, it would be convenient for you to have us be friends again so that you can ride off into the sunset guilt free, but she's saying... i don't need that from you, you're not getting that from me, and to ask is fake and pathetic.
😂😂 yeah, I messed that up bad haha. A lot of us dudes use the “hey, let’s be friends” so we can eventually date again. Great point P.S. Subscribe if you haven’t & my Twitter/Instagram is anthony96jr ❤️
Marjorie - this song is a tribute to her maternal grandmother, Marjorie Finlay, who was an opera singer. After she sings “now you’re singing to me”, the background has her grandmother’s operas recordings in there.
Here is a theory that Jules Gnu commented on another reaction video "Poet Reacts to Taylor Swift's Evermore" which works: "Ivy is probably about Emily Dickinson and her long-time lover Sue. They fell in love when they were young women and then Sue married Emily's brother (some believe she did this so that she could remain close to Emily and others wouldn't be suspicious of their love), and the two had a life long relationship documented by Emily's poems and letters to Sue. Taylor released Evermore on Emily Dickinson's birthday, and in two of Emily's letters to Sue, she ends them by writing "for evermore!" Sue has often been described as the “muse” for Emily’s poetry (“can’t stop you putting roots in my dreamland” could reference how her love for Sue was the inspiration for her poetry/creative outlet), the cottagecore imagery in the song resembles the setting in which their love flourished (poems and letters described the time they spent together in the woods and in nature). And one of Dickinson’s letters to Sue also reads “I guess I’m made with nothing but a hard heart of stone, for it don’t break any, and dear Susie, if mine is stony, yours is stone, upon stone, for you never yield, any, where I seem quite beflown.” So like in Ivy, the “house of stone” is Emily Dickinson’s “hard heart of stone” and the ivy that grows all over it is Sue’s love. AHHH! Oh and one more theory - the lyric "my pain fits in the palm of your freezing hand” could be referring to how Emily Dickinson left all of her poetry to Sue after she died (the “pain” being her poems) and how Sue was the only person/collaborator she trusted to share her first drafts of her poems with."
Este thinks her husband is having an affair but she can't prove it, and when she decides to call him out on it, he kills her, but they can't prove it. So Taylor decides to kill him with Este's sister help who'll say she was with her the whole time as an alibi. And since the man's mistress just took out an insurance policy, she looks like she's the one who killed him and has been planning it for a while. I hope that makes sense, I'm not a native English speaker 😅
@@AnthonyAikenJr Glad it helped, I'm always nervous trying to explain complicated stuff in English but Taylor's lyrics are so good it would be a waste to not understand them fully 😊 And TH-cam is the only "social media" I have so I can only subscribe here but I wish you the best ♥️
Dorothea being the male counterpart to tis the season gets me every time 🥺 Hollywood starlet goes home for the holidays (tis the season) and notes that the rode not travelled (seeing things through with hometown love) seems enticing. She misses people who actually know her, not ppl who pretend to care (like in LA) 💔 like you said Dorothea is laced with so much genuine concern 😭
I didn’t know that!! Thanks for sharing and yes, Dorothea is sad when you think about it P.S. Happy Holidays!! Subscribe if you’re new My Twitter/Instagram: anthony96jr 🌲🤎
I know you mentioned in your folklore video you don't believe Taylor is only singing about romantic relationships in her two newest albums and I agree entirely. I appreciate that you noticed this too. I just want to add that Tolerate It is even more heartbreaking when you hear it from the perspective of a heartbroken neglected and/or abused daughter . That is how I hear it. No one can break your heart like the people who were supposed to love you unconditionally.
I know your folklore reaction and this reaction are 3 years old but i just discovered your folklore video and came here... the transition from the folklore cardigan video editing to the evermore video with you wearing the cardigan 😂 perfect!!!!
I came to your channel for a TS reaction and stayed for your talent and humor. Great soul! Very talented, i love watching your reviews because they are very diverse, you comment on the production, on the lyrics, the vocals, you make references, and best of all your super fun edits. Thanks for making an effort to stand out on this platform.
I feel like you can relate to “Tolerate It” in many situations. In a relationship, with your parents, siblings, friends, ...anyone. That’s what makes it so special and heartbreaking💔
No idea why but the part of willow that goes "The more that you say, the less I know Wherever you stray, I follow I'm begging for you to take my hand Wreck my plans, that's my man." reminds me of that line in Mad Woman "Every time you call me crazy I get more crazy What about that? And when you say I seem angry I get more angry" It doesn't make sense because they don't really sound the same, but just the rhythm and the way she sings it makes me go straight to Mad Woman.
My hug came perfect timing then!! This album really puts you through the motions. I agree P.S. Subscribe if you haven’t! Instagram/Twitter @ anthony96jr 🤍
Anthony, just discovered your channel. This video alone convinced me that you’re amazingly talented. Love your honest review and the way you’re so attentive about things. The way you connect lyrics to lyrics made me convinced that you’re a genius and very perceptive. Appreciate this video so much. Definitely gonna subscribe and binge watch your other videos. Hope you’re safe and healthy 🙏🏼🔥
You know , you’re one of the few people i genuinely enjoy they’re reaction . You very well engaged with your viewers ,and i can tell you put alot of work in your videos 🤍
You're such a joy to listen to!! I love your commentary and how open you are to try new things, I stumbled on this channel by accident and you're such a positive, lovely person!! I agree with almost all your opinions with the exception of Tolerate It, that it's one of my favorites in the album. It really is super sad and a lot of arrangements are different as hell from her usual music, both Tolerate It and Happiness are entirely new styles for Taylor and I'm so happy someone else noticed!
I'm pretty sure Dorothea and 'tis the damn season are connected because 'tis the damn season talks about going back to her home town and being with this person she used to know and then going back to LA. Dorothea seems like it would be the guy's perspective. They are both reflecting on knowing each other in the past.
In no body no crime Este's husband and the mistress kill Este and then narrator(taylor) understands and kills the husband framing the mistress. By the way edits are amazing.
I actually love track 5 now. I just realized you have to count 1,2,3,4,5 instead of to 4. P.S. Subscribe if you haven’t! Instagram/Twitter @ anthony96jr 🤍
Dorothea and 'Tis the Damn Season are about the same two past lovers. 'Tis the Damn Season is from the woman's perspective going to her hometown for the holidays and hooking up with her old boyfriend. Dorothea is from the guy's perspective and presumed to be a few years after they hooked up in the other song. Dorothea has apparently become a star in LA by that point.
IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS REACTION THE MOST!!! I LOVE HOW YOURE SO WELL INFORMED OF HER GENIUS LYRICISM!!! COME THRU SWIFTIE!!! sending love all the way from Australia 🥰🥰
Another awesome and honest reaction. Thank you for all your hard work, Anthony! Every single time you bring a cool perspective. It's always interesting to hear your thoughts as an artist!!
@@AnthonyAikenJr sweetie that's the favorite song of producer jack antonff!! Her boyfriend of 5 years whom she rarely talks about is joe Alwyn! He also the co writer in 5 songs in both songs under a fake name willam Bowery
I could see that!! I hear Daisy and Gatsby and with some songs, Peter Pan and Wendy! also, there is a few track 5 within this album. Sad songs all over P.S. Happy Holidays! Pls subscribe if u haven’t Twitter/Instagram: anthony96jr 🌲🤎
I love that you got to the point that almost every sentence has a Taylor song reference. I do it too for years now but rarely somebody notices it and it kills me
mo body, no crime lyrics spells it out clear as day. How are some of these comments even getting this wrong lmaooo Taylor* (in this universe) meets up with her friend, Este, at Olive Garden every Tuesday night. Este has been having marital issues, she suspects that her husband is having an affair based on the way he’s been acting recently and things like strange purchases on her husband’s bank statements. Este confronts her husband about the cheating she goes missing (he kills her). When Taylor drove past his house, she noticed that his car had new tyres and that the mistress had moved in - they both moved on quickly and made no effort to find Este. Taylor plots to kill Este’s husband; note she’s had her boating license since she was 15 (either she dumped his body in the ocean, or she used it as a getaway vehicle / or both) and she knows how to clean up a murder scene. Her alibi is set that she was with Este’s sister the night of the husband’s disappearance (probably noted that she was grieving with her due to her being so close with Este). Luckily for Taylor, the mistress took out a life insurance policy shortly after the husband’s death (super duper sketchy in the eyes of the law, especially so soon after the death of the loved one). The mistress fully suspects and subconsciously knows it was Taylor but can’t prove it; whilst simultaneously, the law enforcement have the mistress as the number 1 suspect but can’t prove it. Taylor got away with murder and avenged her friend
Thanks 😭😭 It took me the second listen to understand. Don’t judge me, I could be slow sometimes lol. P.S. Subscribe if you haven’t! Instagram/Twitter @ anthony96jr 🤍
Also Tolerate It gets me everytime, i immediately picture like a stale marriage from back in the 50's where the wife is always taking care of the house, walking on eggshells and hoping her husband will appreciate her eventually, but he never does and it's so sad lol.
1. Selena's favorite movie is "Wizard of Oz' in which the heroin is called Dorothy. 2. "When we were younger, down in the park" there are instances and photos you can find Selena and Taylor back in 2013 in parks 3. "Honey, making a lark of misery" is referencing finding love in a miserable place. Back in 2013, Selena was dating her ex-boyfriend Justin Bieber, with who things didn't end well and both agreed that it was a toxic relationship. 4. "A tiny screen's the only place i see you now" Due to the pandemic and busy schedules, the pair hasn't been seen together in the same place since 2018. They recently reunited on Facetime on Selena's cooking show. 5. "And if you're ever tired of being known for who you know" Selena is often being cited next to Justin Bieber's name, which can be exhausting. 6. "You're a queen selling drean 8/10 makeup and magazines" Selena recently launched her beauty line 'Rare Beauty', and was acclaimed for the quality of it. She's also been on several magazine covers this year. 7. "Your mom and her pageant schemes" Selena's mom was a makeup artist when Selena was a kid, she says she's her inspiration for makeup. 8. Selena Gomez played the character named 'Dot' which is a short for Dorothy, in the movie 'The Fundamentals of Caring.' twitter.com/kbyerevival/status/1337339053532995587 Source (Twitter)

Literally started singing New Year's Day in my head when i heard the piano the first time in Champagne problems but never connected the champagne on New Year's because I'm apparently dense lol that or you're just the genius we know you are
Anthony on track 5: wow this really brought me down ME: lol good luck with the rest of the album! In all seriousness this is by far her album with the most dark/heavy/sad songs
Hey there, I just have to say your reviews on music and of course Taylor’s which is where I found you. You are so poetic, humorous, and in depth. Which in no offense to some Taylor fan reviews but they miss all the lyrics details and instead of feeling fulfilled like when I’m watching your reviews I feel empty in others. I love your videos and editing, it really looks like you are having fun doing it all, and even as a human to human I enjoy watching you. Thank you.

Taylor with folklore : let's crying together
Taylor with evermore : let's put our pain on the grain

I love you!!
You're so fabulous!
Love your channel ❤️
😂😂 This was karma for me not trying your Oreo hot chocolate suggestion yet. I had basic hot chocolate
@@kurtsworld6954 she is amazing
Folklore broke me, Evermore picked me up
Folklore left me wondering, evermore gave me closure.
It came full circle for me.
Marjorie is a song that I'd listen to only when I'm emotionally steady again. I had no parents and my grandma brought me up all by herself. If I wrote a song for her, this would be perfect. It's been 8 years since she passed away but because of the memories that song evoked in me when I listened to it the first time, I actually saw my grandma in my dream last night. So, I'll be skipping that song for some time for obvious reasons.
About the album, on my first listen, a lot of songs from Evermore kind of threw me off and left me confused. But then I listened to both albums back to back over and over again. And it all fall right into place. Believe me when I say it will all come together the more you listen.
Great video as usual. My homeboy came through and delivered. Cheers!!
Hey!! Just wanted to thank you for always showing me support. I’m sorry for your loss. I’m sure she is guiding as an Angel. I lost a lot of people in this last couple of years and i do believe in energy and auras still being around.
Also, Glad everyone came in full circle. ❤️

Champagne Problems is about a woman turning down her man’s marriage propose because she realized she is not ready
One of my favorite songs!! Great concept
P.S. Subscribe if you haven’t! Instagram/Twitter @ anthony96jr 🤍
one who was turning down a ring and one who was supposed to end it
I think that Champagne Problems has some of her relationship with Calvin in it. There was a reference to turning down a proposal in the LWYMMD video (a ring box in the robbery scene) as well as in IDWLF ("Wondering if I dodged a bullet or just lost the love of my life").
Also she thinks she's not good enough for him and she's not ready so she sit and watch him leave
I need Anthony to be invited to a secret session. If there was one person other than me I would want to see be invited it would be him haha. TAYLOR PLEASE NOTICE THIS GEM!
If we could both go though that would be awesome haha. I appreciate you always commenting. I remember your face now!! I hope she notices me one day
Champagne problems is about rejecting a proposal-that chorus and bridge absolutely breaks my heart.
That makes it 10x sad!! Do you think there is a link between this song & New Year’s Day

im pretty sure “‘tis the damn season” and “dorothea” are conected.
dorothea is this girl who moves to la so she can get big and all that but she leaves someone who she had a relationship with on her home town. on christmas she comes back and reconnects with that person and thats what “‘tis the damn season” talks about. “dorothea” is the other person’s version.
I think that’s right because she discussed that in an Instagram post😳
@SARA Dorothea is Selena Gomez.
Love this analysis!! I’m going to listen to both again with that in mind.

There’s a show on Netflix called “Easy” with this EXACT story line. It’s the episode with jake Johnson in it. I wonder if she was inspired by it to create the song the way that “something great” inspired death by a thousand cuts 👀👀👀
It’s Easy episode (season 3, episode 9) “She’s back”
the actor in the willow music video was a dancer on her Red tour, there's a really cute Polaroid of them floating around
That’s amazing that she uses her dancers. I remember she used one in Lover too
"Again, I'm single, so I can't relate" 😅 LOL, same. Single Swiftie problems.
Hahaha right 😭😭
The worst part is, I’ll be expecting these feelings in my next relationship because of the exquisite tapestries of emotion Ms. T. Swift weaves.
Single Swifties!! ❤️ we need love too
sometimes i feel like we'll never fully understand taylor's lyrics cause of how poetic they are, she's never saying only what she's saying
That’s because poems are up to personal interpretation. We all have our own life experiences and we all experience everything differently. For someone to spell out word for word what something means would be to break individuality.
I love that!! Great works of literature always leave room for questions and debates.
Not Anthony losing his goddamn mind over the murder story. 😆 Este was a victim. So then “Taylor” killed him in revenge.
I’m convinced this is her wanting to murder Justin Bieber.
@@jfalls1879 hahahahahahah very dark but also possible lol
@@jfalls1879 bahaha I support this theory. ♥️🎄
@@jfalls1879 I think it's very similar to the Watts murder case
What’s your favorite song? I’m curious
I want to say how much I appreciate finding another black man who's able to appreciate Taylor's creativity & music. So thank you... But Yoooo, you did "cowboy like me" dirty.😆 Yeah it took me at least 3 listens to get it - 2 cynical con artists finding each other, opening their hearts, changing their ways & locking it down (I wanna believe they stayed together). And the guitar solo, what?! Beautiful. Now, I love it!
Yesss, I was alson waiting for the reaction on the "now you hang from my lips like the gardens of babylon" and nothing, he just cut it 😭
love your analyses of her lyrics. Marjorie gets me. Its so personal and I can't listen to it without crying. Her grandmother passed when Taylor was 13 yr old and was an Opera singer. If you go back and listen to it, the final chorus when she sings that she can hear her singing to her, there is a track of her grandmother actually singing opera in the background. And, Taylor lists her in the credits as singing background. Its a lovely song. Especially using the phrases that her grandmother taught her.
Thank you!! Majorie is the one too. Especially know that info. I can tell this is personal for her.
It’s one of those songs you love but it’s hard to listen to without crying

The start of no body, no crime reminds me of the beginning of her song " you should’ve said no " ( first few seconds )
Same!!! Glad someone else noticed it haha
It reminds me of the O.j car chase
I need a video to this!!!
lmaoooooooo she is NOT saying 'let's be friends' in closure. she's saying sure, it would be convenient for you to have us be friends again so that you can ride off into the sunset guilt free, but she's saying... i don't need that from you, you're not getting that from me, and to ask is fake and pathetic.

Marjorie - this song is a tribute to her maternal grandmother, Marjorie Finlay, who was an opera singer. After she sings “now you’re singing to me”, the background has her grandmother’s operas recordings in there.
Song is so beautiful especially knowing that she is in the background
P.S. Happy Holidays!!

There is a video too with old shots of her grandmother, it’s beautiful
Here is a theory that Jules Gnu commented on another reaction video "Poet Reacts to Taylor Swift's Evermore" which works:
"Ivy is probably about Emily Dickinson and her long-time lover Sue. They fell in love when they were young women and then Sue married Emily's brother (some believe she did this so that she could remain close to Emily and others wouldn't be suspicious of their love), and the two had a life long relationship documented by Emily's poems and letters to Sue. Taylor released Evermore on Emily Dickinson's birthday, and in two of Emily's letters to Sue, she ends them by writing "for evermore!"
Sue has often been described as the “muse” for Emily’s poetry (“can’t stop you putting roots in my dreamland” could reference how her love for Sue was the inspiration for her poetry/creative outlet), the cottagecore imagery in the song resembles the setting in which their love flourished (poems and letters described the time they spent together in the woods and in nature). And one of Dickinson’s letters to Sue also reads “I guess I’m made with nothing but a hard heart of stone, for it don’t break any, and dear Susie, if mine is stony, yours is stone, upon stone, for you never yield, any, where I seem quite beflown.” So like in Ivy, the “house of stone” is Emily Dickinson’s “hard heart of stone” and the ivy that grows all over it is Sue’s love. AHHH!
Oh and one more theory - the lyric "my pain fits in the palm of your freezing hand” could be referring to how Emily Dickinson left all of her poetry to Sue after she died (the “pain” being her poems) and how Sue was the only person/collaborator she trusted to share her first drafts of her poems with."
Champagne problems is the all to well of this album and I won't be taking any questions.
so true🥺♥️

There’s a mash up video of CP and ATW floating around and ATW trended #1 on twitter today 🤣
Este thinks her husband is having an affair but she can't prove it, and when she decides to call him out on it, he kills her, but they can't prove it. So Taylor decides to kill him with Este's sister help who'll say she was with her the whole time as an alibi. And since the man's mistress just took out an insurance policy, she looks like she's the one who killed him and has been planning it for a while.
I hope that makes sense, I'm not a native English speaker 😅
It does make sense!

Dorothea being the male counterpart to tis the season gets me every time 🥺 Hollywood starlet goes home for the holidays (tis the season) and notes that the rode not travelled (seeing things through with hometown love) seems enticing.

I know you mentioned in your folklore video you don't believe Taylor is only singing about romantic relationships in her two newest albums and I agree entirely. I appreciate that you noticed this too. I just want to add that Tolerate It is even more heartbreaking when you hear it from the perspective of a heartbroken neglected and/or abused daughter . That is how I hear it. No one can break your heart like the people who were supposed to love you unconditionally.
Tolerate it and Closure are in 5/4 (the phrases in 5 beats), that's what make them kinda strange, but i love it! ♥
Hey Carmen ❤️ & yea that’s what threw me off but now that I know to count in 5/4, I like the song a lot more now
DUDE CARDIGANS ARE SO ICONIC, Harry's cardigan and Taylor's are two things that saved 2020, i need one

No idea why but the part of willow that goes "The more that you say, the less I know
Wherever you stray, I follow
I'm begging for you to take my hand
Wreck my plans, that's my man."
reminds me of that line in Mad Woman "Every time you call me crazy
I get more crazy
What about that?
And when you say I seem angry
I get more angry"
It doesn't make sense because they don't really sound the same, but just the rhythm and the way she sings it makes me go straight to Mad Woman.
Taylor actually said that she referenced mad woman in willow during the youtube premiere
@@mollycorkeyflatters8639 wait actually? I didn't see the premiere or whatever.
@@tobesoquiet yeah, she said that it referenced invisible string, seven and mad woman from what i can remember
@@mollycorkeyflatters8639 not invisible string it was mirrorball, seven, mad woman and exile
she said Willow MV represents seven, mirrorball, mad woman and exile. . during live chat . .

I'm pretty sure Dorothea and 'tis the damn season are connected because 'tis the damn season talks about going back to her home town and being with this person she used to know and then going back to LA.

Dorothea and 'Tis the Damn Season are about the same two past lovers. 'Tis the Damn Season is from the woman's perspective going to her hometown for the holidays and hooking up with her old boyfriend. Dorothea is from the guy's perspective and presumed to be a few years after they hooked up in the other song. Dorothea has apparently become a star in LA by that point.

We are geniuses
I love that you got to the point that almost every sentence has a Taylor song reference. I do it too for years now but rarely somebody notices it and it kills me
I do these in hopes people comment about it lol
mo body, no crime lyrics spells it out clear as day.
How are some of these comments even getting this wrong lmaooo
Taylor* (in this universe) meets up with her friend, Este, at Olive Garden every Tuesday night. Este has been having marital issues, she suspects that her husband is having an affair based on the way he’s been acting recently and things like strange purchases on her husband’s bank statements.
Este confronts her husband about the cheating she goes missing (he kills her). When Taylor drove past his house, she noticed that his car had new tyres and that the mistress had moved in - they both moved on quickly and made no effort to find Este.
Taylor plots to kill Este’s husband; note she’s had her boating license since she was 15 (either she dumped his body in the ocean, or she used it as a getaway vehicle / or both) and she knows how to clean up a murder scene. Her alibi is set that she was with Este’s sister the night of the husband’s disappearance (probably noted that she was grieving with her due to her being so close with Este).
Luckily for Taylor, the mistress took out a life insurance policy shortly after the husband’s death (super duper sketchy in the eyes of the law, especially so soon after the death of the loved one).
The mistress fully suspects and subconsciously knows it was Taylor but can’t prove it; whilst simultaneously, the law enforcement have the mistress as the number 1 suspect but can’t prove it.
Taylor got away with murder and avenged her friend
Thanks 😭😭 It took me the second listen to understand. Don’t judge me, I could be slow sometimes lol.

1. Selena's favorite movie is "Wizard of Oz' in which the heroin is called Dorothy.
2. "When we were younger, down in the park" there are instances and photos you can find Selena and Taylor back in 2013 in parks
3. "Honey, making a lark of misery" is referencing finding love in a miserable place. Back in 2013, Selena was dating her ex-boyfriend Justin Bieber, with who things didn't end well and both agreed that it was a toxic relationship.
4. "A tiny screen's the only place i see you now" Due to the pandemic and busy schedules, the pair hasn't been seen together in the same place since 2018. They recently reunited on Facetime on Selena's cooking show.
5. "And if you're ever tired of being known for who you know" Selena is often being cited next to Justin Bieber's name, which can be exhausting.
6. "You're a queen selling drean 8/10 makeup and magazines" Selena recently launched her beauty line 'Rare Beauty', and was acclaimed for the quality of it. She's also been on several magazine covers this year.
7. "Your mom and her pageant schemes" Selena's mom was a makeup artist when Selena was a kid, she says she's her inspiration for makeup.
8. Selena Gomez played the character named 'Dot' which is a short for Dorothy, in the movie 'The Fundamentals of Caring.'

@@DanyaHethail I would say Champagne Problems is my #1... I think I need more time to listen though before doing a top 5. Thanks for sharing your list

Also about Champagne Problems it reminds me of This Is Why We Can't Have Nice Things, during the first verse where she talks about the parties and being in a Champagne Sea. But yk I could just be crazy.
You’re not crazy!! I could see that!
