Swiftie & Singer/Songwriter analyze Anti-Hero Lyrics - Taylor Swift Midnights Lyric Breakdown
th-cam.com/video/9u1C8sLeXEc/w-d-xo.html
every time i listen to would've could've should've i don't want it to stop, i need a 10 minute version (and it's already the longest song on the album)
The lyric "give me back my girlhood it was mine first" killed me
It's the real track 5 of this album 😭
I wholeheartedly agree
th-cam.com/video/KH2AUsXH8L4/w-d-xo.html
@@IreneOrtega24That’s the most memorable lyric on the album for me.
I think the restraint of Bigger than the Whole Sky makes it so much more ethereal. It's a song to cry over bc of a personal loss. It doesn't need to be a bop. It doesn't need to be catchy.
I agree. I personally feel like the lyrics are about a miscarriage or the loss of a child, but I think they are probably vague enough that we project our own personal tragedies onto it. Wonderfully, wistfully, sad song.
@@tristanneal9552 At first, I thought about my mom who passed away. Then it sounded like a miscarriage but the second time I heard it, it made me think of Ronan. I think it's possible this song was a sleepless night she had when she learned of his passing.
@@bammmitsrachel but she says "Did some force take you because I didnt pray"
@@bammmitsrachel its about her friend who had a miscarriage
@@darshinika That can still be applied to the loss of someone. Not just a baby but the loss of anyone who wasn’t here long enough, or even the loss of love from someone who wasn’t in your life long enough. At first listen, I thought it was about one of her short but intense relationships (Jake or Harry)
I agree that BIGGER THAN THE WHOLE SKY is perfect as is 😭😂
THANK. YOU.
Yes defend that song!! HAHA😂 THAT SONG IS PERFECT
The song would be over produced if there was anything else added to this. This song is perfect!!
Yes!! The beauty of the melody does leave you yearning for a bit more, but that fits the heartbreak & grief
its PERFECT!!
Timestapms❤❤
The Great War - 2:57
Bigger Than The Whole Sky - 15:49
Paris - 28:07
High Infidelity - 39:47
Glitch - 49:28
Would’ve, Could’ve, Should’ve - 57:31
Dear Reader - 1:05:20
Loved both reactions to the Midnights album!!❤
Thank u 💗
🫶🏽
💖
thank you!
Just here for Would’ve Could’ve Should’ve so thanks !!
The Great War is about how she was used to being in dramatic (and sometimes toxic) relationships, and then she met Joe and he was actually treating her the way she deserves. But she didn't know how to accept it, she was creating big fights and trying to self-destruct. (she references throwing him in jail for something he didn't do in in the song Afterglow). so she is calling this turbulent time when she was "blowing up" her relationship "the Great War" ..and how he refused to let her do it.
As someone who also hears all the lyrics on the first listen, I understand Alex’s frustration with Blake about not having any idea what she’s singing about. 😂 I also think you two are a great pair for videos like this because we can get both aspects of someone who dives deep into the production and someone who dives deep into the lyrics. We get a more cohesive understanding of where the artist could be coming from.
100% agree. I definitely prefer Alex reactions to Blakes.
Also Dear Reader is so underrated, I love it, it's a different take of the idea of her being the anti-hero; telling her fans to find another guiding light cause she thinks she's not good enough. 😭💔
It really is one of my favorite songs and it snuck up to my top favorites
It’s my favourite too ❤
I am LIVING for the look of realization on your face after she sings "at nineteen, and the God's honest truth is that the pain was heaven" in Would've Could've Should've! The lyrics in this song hit different for sure
That Shit HURT
If you haven't yet seen it, it's been pointed out that she never says "Should've" in the lyrics of Would've, Could've, Should've, because she says it in Dear John so it's a continuation.
WHOAH
I’m so glad someone else is talking about thissssss
taylor knows swifties speculate about the meaning of her lyrics and has even said she leaves easter eggs for people who read and really try to understand them. so i don’t get why people get so annoyed about it . i love hearing other peoples interpretations of them it shows how her lyrics can relate to so many different people and different situations
so a full lyric breakdown would be great
thank you!!! That’s how I feel about it since she’s said her songs are like her diary entries to us
She’s also stated multiple times that the speculation and the rumors about her personal life make her uncomfortable. Anti hero is literally about how she doesn’t feel like a person because of how her life is treated like a fantasy novel
You are allowed to relate to a song however you like but don't speculate it about Taylor's Swift's personal life
Relate with your own experience not hers
@@mariama8995 anti hero is about her confession. She's telling us she's not saint , she hate people talking about her body, the person Taylor Swift and the brand Taylor Swift aren't same. Taylor Swift the brand is trying to destroy taylor swift.
When she sings "goodbye goodbye goodbye", I don't think I ever heard something so beautiful and so painful at the same time. As a sensitive woman, as I imagine Taylor to be, it's a really hard thing to put out to the world
I love you guys reacting together! I always find Blake’s reactions as a producer fascinating but I also get frustrated when people don’t listen to Taylor’s lyrics 😅 so I feel like you make the perfect duo.
Would’ve, Could’ve, Should’ve is my favorite song on the entire album…it destroys me every time and I love that her voice when she sings the girlhood line actually sounds purposefully youthful like it did at 19 (and that she made it track 19 & released it at same age he was at the time…much like Demi did with 29). She’s brilliant.
Dude that line destroyed me, and how she played with her vocals throughout this album was next level. Thank you for watching 💕💕💕
Not everyone pays attention to lyrics the first time around. I love lyrics but usually for the first listen I don't pay much attention to them. Everyone listens to music differently.
Agreed! Would've, Could've, Should've is my favourite on the album. That long note really gives you chills and the whole song is just a big emotional punch in the face LOL
It’s my favorite song too!!! I purchased the Target CD that includes a different version of it and it’s even more beautiful! ❤
i think the same thing !!! best duo
Bigger than the whole sky had me in tears, it’s so beautiful. Having gone through a miscarriage it totally summed up all the grief I had at never meeting the person that pregnancy could have turned into. Wouldn’t change a bit of that song
As soon as I heard the song I felt like it was about a miscarriage 😭
Me too 😢
BIGGER THAN THE WHOLE SKY IS PERFECT. We don't need those high notes we have Would've Could've Should've for that 😭 pls 🙏🏼
AGREED (*ahem* Blake)
@@alexray_ Keep doing these i love it 🙌🏼
yess bttws is a solemn goodbye, but wcs is a song to scream the last chorus to
Love it! 3 am tracks are basically Daddy Aaron coming back, looking at the Synth and be like - alright you kids, you had your fun! Step aside 😂 Thanks Alex for defending Bigger than the whole sky! It's Perfect 💖
we love Daddy Aaron in this house
That lyric you like in Bigger Than The Whole Sky is amazing "Salt streams out my eyes and into my ears". It also makes me think that when you're sad or upset, your brain tends to filter everything you hear to make it seem like an insult or directed at you to make you feel worse.
Ooo that’s a cool interpretation of it!
Not you ready to fight to the death for Bigger than the Whole Sky on the first listen lol love it
you compliment Blake so much! i love how you pay attention so much to the lyrics 'cause a lot of us who are swifties, that's what we love about her - songwriting. pls continue to make reaction videos for ts i/we really enjoy ur content!!! sending love and warm hugs from the Philippines! 💙🇵🇭
Thank youuuu!! Please hit me with all the TS content you’d like to see reactions to!
Yes, yes, YES, lyrics breakdowns, PLEASE!!
I really love Blake’s production breakdowns, because there’s really not anyone else doing that, but I would LOVE hearing a lyric breakdown from a song writer who has that background and history and knowledge of other songwriters like I’ve heard from you, Alex!
Bigger than the whole sky is my #1 song in this album. It has been my comfort song while remembering my best friend who passed away this year 😭 i love love this
I’m so sorry you are going through that 🥺 I’m so happy you liked the video
As someone whos lost their best friend- things actually do get better- but it takes time. May your heart heal.
@@MissteriousMisstress praying for it, thank you so much for the love! Take care of ur heart too, stay safe! xx 💛
I lost my pampa who loved Taylor Swift six weeks ago. It’s in the top three for me but I can’t listen to it without crying. He would have loved this album and song.
I am so sorry my love, I am so glad that this song has helped you feel a bit better ❤❤❤❤
The Great War is probably my favourite track on the entire album. ❤
I would love to hear your opinion on how Would've, Could've, Should've compares to All Too Well. After listening to WCS several times, I have been realizing we may have another all-time-great Taylor Swift song on our hands. Also, how the songs build to the lines "And you call me up again just to break me like a promise" and "Give me back my girlhood, it was mine first" and how Taylor sings those lines devastates me in a similar fashion
Totally agree with you on this. I think it is as heartbreaking as ATW in both lyrics and sound.
I have actually been thinking the same. Both songs give me that same feeling in that same part you mentioned, like devastatingly cathartic but in a super sad way.
I also put dear John in this category, those are the 3 that never fail to destroy me (other than the best day)
I love how both of you have different passion and different focus yet came together for Taylor Swift.
Absolutely need a full lyric breakdown for every song 👏🏼
Yes. I agree!!
100%
Noway!! Bigger than the whole sky is a chef's kiss the way it is. I get soooooo immersed in it and it's being replayed 1000 times in my Playlist. ❤️❤️😭 Taylor is a mastermind she knows what we want and I don't know of anyone who didn't like this song the way it is
Her frustration face after his answer to "what does the lyric say?" is so relatable hahaha I hate my friends for not paying attention to the lyrics
I just KNOW Blake was so excited to get all of his Jack jokes out. This whole reaction video is great
His literal dream come true 😅
Not sure if anyone's said it here, but The Great War kinda gives me vibes of Afterglow when she says "put you in jail for something you didn't do" and in The Great War she says "screaming from the crypt telling me to punish you for things you never did."
Big afterglow vibes, totally agree
The great war is afterglow 2.0 imo. Just saying
Yep. For me it is hard to hear both songs because I relate too much. To me Afterglow is every fight and The a Great War is THE fight that you have in a stable relationship. When you realise that you might be on a turning point and you need to hit the breaks or you’re going to end up hurt.
Bigger than the whole sky.. is my fav from the 3 am tracks and makes me cry everytime 😢reminds me of people that are not around anymore and situations.. it’s just perfect and beautiful.
I cry every time. God it hurts
Bigger than the whole sky is very personal and perfect as it is, it's sad and that's it
I needed a song that has the kind of melody i could cry listening to
18:52 Her face! 😂 She’s so ready to tackle Blake 😂😂😂
Bigger than the whole sky needs to be exactly the way it is! And also YASSSS to full lyric breakdown on TH-cam asap x
There are a lot of people speculating that Bigger Than the Whole Sky is about a miscarriage or the loss of a child, or at least a devastating loss of someone really special, and obviously not saying that's definitely the case, but for those fans that have experienced that, it's absolutely perfect the way that it is. That numb cyclical pain that just continues to echo, it fits it so so well.
Omg I love your rage at Blake for wanting to change bigger than the whole sky 😂
Btw I never thought about the “everything happens for a reason” point… I personally interpreted that as “I can’t believe this is happening, I can’t believe what I have to say, which is goodbye”
Lol thank you for getting it 😅 only that rage can happen when you’re this close of friends. And I agree, like it’s almost like gasping for air as you say goodbye.
High Infidelity is about Calvin Harris. April 29th was days before Met Gala wherein Taylor met Joe. The dancing around can be interpreted by She's dancing with Tom Hiddleston literally in Met Gala or she's dancing around with her relationship with Calvin. (Getaway Car is parallel to this song). And the lyrics "Put on your records and regret me" is because Calvin is a DJ and Hi-Fi (Hi Fidelity) but Taylor used Infidelity instead just because she's a genius songwriter and storyteller. Long story short this song gives a glimpse of what she truly felt during her relationship with Calvin Harris and how he hurt and take Taylor for granted.
PS: love your reaction videos and how you are a Swiftie too!! Super cool 😍💖🙌
The song she wrote This Is What You Came For was also released on 4/29/16. We know her involvement was a secret for a while, and he denied working with her or wanting to work with her. Put on your headphones and regret me is def DJ imagery. I wonder how much is her PO’ed about the song and how much is her cheating. I feel like there was speculation he used her to try to get Grammy recognition.
Alex it feels so good to not be the only annoying Swiftie who is crazy about the lyrics. PLEASE DO THE LYRICAL BREAKDOWN, especially for the 3AM tracks and You're on your own, kid, maybe you'll find a connection too between them alike me.
I am your resident annoying Swiftie, my love 💕 I’m on it!
I love the moments when you are both just jamming to the song and then a production thing or lyric catches your attention and you reach for the pause at the same time!!!!
Been a follower of Blake for a long time, can't wait to see what your channel brings to the table
- The great War is produced by Aaron Dessner and I think it's about a fight she had with Joe
- Bigger than the whole sky production matched the subject matter: grief and death
- High Infidelity is about how unloved she felt with Calvin and she fell for Joe ( or tom). April 29th is release date of this is what you came for
April 29th is the day This is What You Came For was released, and Calvin Harris did an interview saying he couldn’t see them writing together. She felt disrespected.
She was at a club with friends on the 28th, left early in the morning of the 29th. We don’t know who she may have first met that night, or danced around with 😉
I think that Bigger than The Whole Sky was never meant to be "legendary". I feel like it was Taylor having a cathartic moment with her piano mourning a loss. Not all songs are written to win awards or be played on the radio. Some songs are written to voice something important in the person's life that they feel might make a listener who is going through the same thing a little less lonely.
YAY! i've been refreshing like a mad woman every few hours for this video. i absolutely loved the midnights reaction on blake's channel and the way you two vibe together! amped to watch this now : )
Omg I didn’t even realize it was up!!! Thank you!
i understood that reference
The Great War is 1) an Aaron Dessner co-write and co-produce (not Jack) so that is why it has the folklore/evermore feel; and 2) it is about her first huge fight with Joe. She has admitted she gets jealous (or she did at the beginning) and she was accusing him of possibly cheating or seeing someone else, but Joe wouldn’t play and stayed calm and reached out and held his stand. They survived it (but it’s sounds like it was close).
this is literally my favorite reaction of midnights i love your guys reaction together because you get both sides of prospective, you have the lyricism and the production and i find it so interesting and cool to see this i would love to see you two react to more songs together in the future!!!
High infidelity seems to be about herself, Calvin Harris and Tom Huddleston 🤭
And bigger than the whole sky doesn’t need a big production because it’s meant to be emotional, the lyrics just hits you! I myself will always look at the lyrics anyway before I think about the production, so I LOVE the Great War 🙏🏼
Yes, to me the Chorus has enough power to send chills.
I’ve been impatiently waiting for this! I absolutely loved your reaction to Midnights and the Bejeweled mv and this one was just as entertaining to watch! You are just gorgeous and I love your energy and the dynamic between you and Blake. Can’t wait for more content from you, reactions, covers and original songs too, you have a very beautiful voice.
Thank you 🥹 that’s so kind, I’m so glad you’re here!
That moment you realized she was singing about John Mayer...felt the same way
I’m already dying at this “Jack” embodiment lmao
Can’t wait to watch you react to these gem of a collection of tracks.. they are so damn good.
The first time I heard bigger than the whole sky I broke down crying. Last year my wife and I lost our second little girl at 21 weeks and I always wonder who she would be! Forever our angel our baby Rowan Ellis!! 👼🏻
I’m so sorry for your loss ❤️ I hope this song helps with healing, so much love for you both
Sorry for your loss Logan ❤
I love the breakdown of the lyrics personally because i don't have as much of the swiftie knowledge about her life and I'm also bad with words so it makes me appreciate her songs even more 😸
There's one more song! Hits Different, exclusive to the Lavender Edition, it's SOOO good. Didn't want you to miss it 😊
Thank you! Blake and I are going to buy the album today and do another reaction to that!
This kind of love story in Midnights, from stangers to friends to bestfriends to room mates to romantic relationship back to being strangers again is so depressing but i love the beat.
Damn that really broke me when you out it like rhat
And thank you so much Alexandra for contributing to the breakdown of the lyrics here 💗 I really appreciated you here and would love to see you guys collaborate even more on future Taylor Swift albums! 💗 you're a really nice addition to Blake's producer mindset 😂💗
Also, I waited for like more than a week to get the 3am reaction from you guys! I really thought that you forgot to post it even. So thank you for doing that! 💗
Thank you for watching and hanging out! And yes sorry :( I had copyright issues but I’m so glad you like it!
fun fact: Would've Could've Should've is track #19. the song talks about Taylor being age 19.
That ad lib ‘uwu uwu uwu’ bit at the end of High Infidelity gets me every time! Loved this reaction including goofy parody Jack 😂
They met in New York at the Met Gala (which is held in NYC annually) - BUT, they spent a lot of time together early on in their relationship, in Paris (which is where Taylor was planning to kick off the Lover tour before the Pandemic hit, I believe).
I mean having listened to high infidelity, I’m wondering if the Met Gala really was the first time they met 😵
April 29th is the release date of "This Is What You Came For" and i'm sure you know what does it mean now :)
Actually, Aaron Dessner was the co-writer and co-producer on High Infidelity (which is why it has a similar tone to folklore). High Infidelity is believed to be about Calvin Harris (notice all the music/club/DJ references including the song name, a play off High Fidelity (HiFi). And the story is he didn’t give her a lot of time or attention, and didn’t even want to accompany her to award shows etc. And then his comment about never collaborating with her in a tone like she isn’t worthy of doing that with after he had dropped the song she co-wrote. Educated guess and makes a lot of sense.
also, April 29th is the release date of This is What You Came For
LOOVEE seeing you guys fight it's like golden retriever and a black cat vibes ❤❤❤❤
I’m going to print this comment out and frame it LOLOL thank youuuu 😘🐈⬛
The great war is about a big fight Taylor and Joe had (she also references this in afterglow & )´, like the dark night of their relationship, where all Taylors previous trauma from earlier relationships almost made her lose Joe, like she says in the lyrics "maybe it´s the past that´s talking screaming from the crypt. Telling me to punish you for things you never did." And in the end of the song she basically is saying that because they survived this "war" of their relationship, she now knows she can trust him and will always be his. If you pay closer attention to the lyrics its very clear that the song is about her and Joe(not S.B,S.B or K.W)
Glitch is such an underrated track and deserves so much recognition! Glitch gives me so much selena gomez vibes and a little bit of ariana grande! Because the song itself sounds like something selena gomez would sing and the vocals towards the end sounds like ariana grande! :D
it was great hearing all the discussions around the songs, especially on bigger than the whole sky🥺♥️
I'm literally working through these songs in like a poetry analysis manner, I'd love to hear your lyric breakdowns!! I really enjoy seeing what other people get out of the lyrics 🥰
Yes!! Please tell me all your thoughts, comments, feelings, etc. I want to include what you guys catch in our lyric breakdown videos!
Bigger Than The Whole Sky is the best song. I feel it and it touches my heart!🙂🙂❤❤❤❤
Bigger than the whole sky is perfect….. you have to experience a profound emotional thing happen to you to feel this song as it ❤
1:02:16 Mean came out in 2010, Taylor dated John Mayer from 2009 to 2010 so her mentioning that she was 19 and the melodic similarity with Mean could be a pin point to the time in which what the song tells happened.
Bigger than the whole sky it’s perfect the way it is and we don’t mess with perfection 😄
I love how she managed to tie 29 April in High Infidelity (date of release of 'This is what you came for') and Calvin Harris (, the Met gala, how she was dancing (literally and metaphorically) around the bad relationship and with Tom Hiddleston in the MET Gala (in the Getaway Car), but also on that same night she met also for 1st time Joe "Do I really have to tell you how he brought me back to life?". Beautiful masterpiece. She is a genius.
My top 3 Midnights song:
1. Maroon 💗
2. Midnight Rain 🌦
3. Would've Could've Should've 🥀
I'm so excited its finally up. Thanks for working to try to get it up through copyright issues for us
So glad you’re here 💕💕
yes i live for lyrical breakdowns - especially when it’s with artists who write with layers like taylor
High Infidelity: April 29th is the day of the Met Gala in 2016. And where Taylor was seen dancing with Tom Hiddleston that night. Which made people suggest that her relationship with Calvin Harris was over. So this song is about Taylor leaving Calvin at the Met Gala and being in a new relationship with Tom. Also in the lyric when she says “Do I really have to tell you how he brought me back to life?” Is about Joe and how he saved her from herself and what the media wants her to be.
43:53 I love how in sync you both were in here, basically completing the lyrics for each other 😂
High infidelity is about Calvin Harris. He released “This is What You Came For” on April 29th, which Taylor was credited as a song writer on under a pseudonym (Nils Sjoberg). That same she was seen shopping in New York City to prepare for the Met Gala that she was co-hosting. At the Met Gala she was seen dancing with Tom Hiddleston and they started dating a couple months later.
LYRICS BREAKDOWN FOR SURE YES PLEASE LOVE IT
the way you realized would've could've should've was about john is priceless
Hit me like a fucking truck
A visual of the two sides of my brain fighting when listening to music ^
This is a great duo for reacting, I love it! I love that you both approach it differently, it makes it so fun! I love the bonus tracks, but I think I still love You're On Your Own Kid the best, followed very closely by Dear Reader, Vigilante Shit, Bigger than the Whole Sky, then Mastermind I think? Then High Infidelity and then Paris? Or Would've Been Could've Been Should've Been? Its so hard to pick my absolute favorites. I love them all, I could honestly just listen to the whole album all the time, and there aren't many albums I can say that about. As far as dissecting Taylor's lyrics, I'm here for it! Honestly any Taylor content you want to put out I'm here for!
I've been waiting for this video!! I loved your reaction to Midnights on Blake's channel (and at a cat café!!) and simply loved your dynamic together.
I would LOVE videos which you breakdown the lyrics, please do it! I am a fanatic for the lyrics so...
Also, release that song pleasee, I'm dying to hear it! It sounds GORGEOUS!
Can't wait to watch more videos.
(ps: Blake's imitation of Jack in the beggining was perfect)
You’re the cutest thank you 🥹
the great war slander is not it 😭😭😭 its top 5 on midnights for me
I’ve listened a couple more times and it’s grown on me big time!
I think it’s one of the top 3 on album as a song and my favorite
i think what makes the melody in bttws so powerful is exactly the fact that it's only there once a chorus
For Glitch, I just wanna know why something has to “happen” for it to be a good song?? The song FEELS good. Blake I am CONFUSION.
i believe in the gaylor and kaylor theory so i analyze everything through this lense and it opens a second dimension in the lyrics🤷🏻♀️
👀
I love your reacting and dissecting of lyrics! Please don’t let others convince you otherwise.
Wait why did your Taylor song fit perfectly with Midnights !????? you predicted the future
Taylor references records and headphones in high infidelity a few times and it’s giving Calvin Harris. Feel like this goes into bejeweled with him not appreciating her. Hence “ there are many ways to kill the one you love, the slowest is not loving them enough.” And she was dancing around at the met with Tom 😒 also April 29th 2016 was the day Calvin said he and Taylor would never collaborate despite them having written this is what we came for together. They broke up right after.
Would've Could've Should've is a masterpiece and it makes me sob.
"Give me back my girlhood it was mine first" oof 😭😭😭
I completely agree that Bigger Than The Whole Sky is perfect as is!
Bigger then the whole sky is perfect as is. One of her best songs
I can't believe you got Jack Antonoff to collab with you!!! Insane
He showed up at my door with a truck full of synths
@@alexray_ Classic Jack
Omggggg your songs gonna be one rep tv vault tracks 😂💜💜💜👏🏽
Through the TTPD-Matty lens and the Midnights-was-the-Joe-breakup-album lens, Paris is very reminiscent of Guilty as Sin? as if she was already emotionally detached from Joe and she was feeling cheerful and giddy about M and doesn’t even care about any gossip anymore because she’s floating up in the clouds with new love butterflies.
I agree. Midnights has a completely diff takeaway through a Matty lens-not necessarily in a gossipy way, just more a different interpretation than I had pre-TTPD
Im sure this has been said by multiple people already but "High Infidelity" is about Calvin and Tom. April 29th was 3 days before Coachella when she was seen dancing with Tom Hiddleston and so people assumed her relationship with Calvin Harris had ended.
All I can think is that writing Midnights managed to make a miracle happen. She actually wrote a song about Calvin lol
Yesss full lyric breakdown on TH-cam 👏🏼
You coming back to Bigger Than The Whole Sky holding a cat made me so happy for you because that song shatters me. Sometimes we just need a therapy pet to get through that ride. I totally see what Blake means with if we heard it with that bit doubled that we would think it’s perfection just as we do hearing this as it is, but I think that seeing as though soooo many people hear this song and want nothing more from it, makes it perfect as is. The change wouldn’t have affected it. It doesn’t need to be catchy or hit an octave, it’s just a feel your feelings song 💙 I think you were spot on with these 3 am tracks being her catharsis bit and less of those golden radio play tracks.
I needed my little buddy Ash to listen to that song again :( thank you so much for hanging out and such a thoughtful comment
Okay this is such a beautiful reaction... I have been INTENSELY following Blake for the past year and now having you is so great.
The Taylor song you guys made btw... IT'S AWESOME
THANK YOU!!
i love blake, but every time he opens his mouth in this video alex is just DONE with him and it's so funny, thanks guys
LOLOL I Really do love him
About Paris - it's amazing to me how Taylor manages to catch such a basic but absolutely core experience of any person in their 20s/30s visiting Paris: drinking champagne/any cheap French wine in an alley or just in front of the Tour Effeil. I don't know how she can do it while also being one of the most famous multi-millioners in the world.
To compare, when Beyonce sang about quitting a day job in Break My Soul, people couldn't relate. But Taylor does it so naturally and beautifully that you'd think that she's one of us trying to go to Paris for a weekend on a 10£ budget.
That’s so true. She manages to write songs that normal humans can relate to even though I’m sure she drinks wine that is worth more than I am 😅
This album is Soo Soo soo Phenomenal .. i can't handle 😭😭😭💙💙💙💙
Ooooh I’m here exactly a year later! Bigger than the whole sky is perfect. It feels very much about pregnancy loss, but that could just be me projecting. Now that we know she and Joe aren’t together, and weren’t when this album came out, it makes me wonder about many of the meanings. I can’t wait to hear the Travis Kelce songs! Imo it’s going to be very full circle “she’s the cheer captain and I’m on the bleachers” lol
YAS it’s so full circle and precious 😭
