WHEN YOU SAID “the greatest album of all time.” I GASPED BECAUSE IVE NEVER MET SOMEOEN WHO LOVES SPEAK NOW AS MUCH AS I DO AND IT MADE ME FEEL SO VALIDATED 😭
AGREED i feel like speak now is one of the most underrated albums (almost even with evermore) i mean, when a friend of mine told me (a long time ago) her fav album was sn i was like what does it have of special bcs i just didn't know but once you start listening it's just GOLDDDD i swear it's my fav album ever and i'm not even that into country music for real, every time i play any song i feel like flying
Speak Now has NO weak songs, all bangers, all brilliant lyrically and musically, can’t believe how long we have gone having that not acknowledged. SO stoked for TV!
I only became a Swiftie during the Folklore era, but Speak Now has always been one of my favourite albums ever… I can not contain my excitement for this release😭😭
I am also Swiftie since Folklore, and you have no idea how exciting it is to have new albums so quickly (I never wanted to give any money to... Those people)
New baby swiftie here! I'm almost 30 and was fully in the "I hate Taylor for no reason other than internalized misogyny" camp for YEARS. The ONLY song I LOVED of hers throughout the years was Mean. I would literally say I hate tswift but mean is a banger lol. I really started opening up to her music after watching Miss Americana on Netflix and it made me CRY. The next year, midnights came out and my love of her solidified! I'm currently learning her backlog of music (i've been through my rep era, my folklore era, and now dipping my toes into evermore) but I'm a person that LOVES hearing backstory and connections to songs, since I dont really know where to start in an album. THANK YOU for being so welcoming and excited and sharing all your elder swiftie knowledge, i'm obsessed with your energy!
The Story of Us is gold! I never ever ever get sick of it, it’s such a well rounded presentation of anger, frustration, affection, confusion, disappointment and shows just how complicated relationships are. I know she wrote it about a romance but the song helped me a ton to get through a breakup that I had with my best friend because Taylor’s emotions are so so raw. I love Taylor and Ally!!!!
"Long Live" is my absolute fav Taylor song. It's magical, inspiring and uplifting, it makes me feel like I'm invincible. "New Romantics" is a close second. Both anthemic songs for swifties
Dear John is one of my favorite Taylor songs ever. I was 7 when Speak Now came out and listened to it for years. Now I’m 20 and actually understand the lyrics. Listening to the album at the same age Taylor was when she wrote it is a whole different experience. The change from “I should’ve known” to “YOU should’ve known” always gets me!
I became a Swiftie during her Lover era, but had always know a few of her earlier songs. And instead of going back and listing to the stolen albums, I’ve been waiting for the re-recordings to hear them for the first time and your video is making me SUPER EXCITED to hear Speak Now Taylor’s Version💜💜💜
No song has ever made me feel the same way I felt when I heard seven from the folklore album. Being the oldest daughter in a Mexican family and being the the first Mexican American in the family comes with its down sides. That not a lot of people can understand Having to grow up and mature before others , before I was ready. Being so scared to disappoint my parents, knowing everything that they gave up to give me the opportunities that I have today. When she sings the bridge it feels like she’s talking to me. The lyrics hold such a deep meaning for me. Seven is my all time favorite song from Taylor, it holds a every special place in my heart.
It's crazy to think the first Taylor song I loved was "Our Song" all the way back in Debut era, and yet I didn't become a true Swiftie until 1989. It is too hard to pick a favorite song but, I will say that I'm about to walk down the aisle to an instrumental version of "Lover" at my wedding in 22 days so I think that is going to forever have a special place in my heart 🥰
It played at my wedding too! In my country the groom walks down the aisle as well, and my husband chose an instrumental version of Lover, I was so proud😂 Wish you all the happiness in the world.
My favorite Taylor Swift song has always been enchanted. I had never been in love before when Speak Now originally came out but there were a few people that had left me wonderstruck and hopeful that it would turn into something more. It just describes that feeling so beautifully. I played the song so much in my car that all my friends who were not swifties would belt out the lyrics with me. Memories ❤
It is crazy to me that Speak Now actually sold less than her debut, to me that is THE TS album. I started listening to her in debut era because my parents listened to country pop radio; “Our Song” was the first song of hers I ever heard. I had the Fearless CD, but when my sibling got the Speak Now CD it was all I ever wanted to listen to! I was obsessed with it, and I loved finding the hidden messages in the album booklet! Unfortunately when “Red” came out I kind of fell out of listening to her because I was still a country music girlie and I felt betrayed 🥲 so then I didn’t really pay attention to 1989 or Rep, and I’m angry at my past self for that because the first time I listened to Rep (years after its release) I was FLOORED by how good it was. Anyway, I started listening to her again in Lover era casually and then folklore saved my life in 2020 and now I’m in deep 😂
Haunted is currently my favorite song! I’ve loved it since I was nine years old. Just the urgency in the song and her gasping for air between lyrics really encapsulates the emotions she’s trying to portray. Also her live performance with the bell is iconic 🔔
Ikr! I only just saw the bell performance as I’ve been looking at more Speak Now era stuff and it’s so iconic! A while ago I listened to it while running and I felt so powerful! I’m not much of a runner but I could probably start if I felt like I was running through a castle during a fantasy battle or something listening to Haunted
My favourite song literally changes every 2 days but since i’ve started listening to taytay i’ve absolutely LOVED dancing with our hands tied! I think it’s the perfect love song and i expecially love the acoustic version of it she played as a surprise song in the rep tour Forever a rep girlie
hiii, i don’t mean to be rude but just fyi taylor dosent like being called “taytay” due to they used that nickname to make fun of her, just so u know 🤍
I have always found that song dialogue between Taylor and Adam Young sooooo sweet and wholesome. I can't understand how underrated that was, it's just GOALS
my older sister downloaded all of taylor’s music on to her ipod and would let me listen to it and speak now has always been my favorite album. i preordered the cd and pre-saved the album on spotify :)
Speak Now was the first Taylor album I owned as a gift from my big sister and being roughly the same age she was when she gave it to me is something I can’t even put into words feels like a full circle moment and I’m so excited for SNTV 💜
I have always loved Speak Now, specifically Long Live. As i've gotten older, the song has made me more and more emotional. The feeling of being apart of something bigger than yourself, surrounded by others who feel the same, and so strongly. It's such an unbelievable feeling.
I grew up listening to Taylor Swift on the radio. Being a 23 year old woman I haven't known life without her music, but for me, Reputation was the first album that really made me fall in love with her. It was very different from anything she had put out before and it really spoke to my rage filled, longing, romantic, angsty 17 year old self. I remember waiting for each music video to come out and watching them over and over on TH-cam.
Mine was speak now I remember seeing the cd for it and instantly falling in love. I am a casual swiftie and now I am listening to her newest albums after reputation.
My tears ricochet is seriously my all-time favorite song ever!! It's honestly impossible for me to skip it when it. And when minute 2:20 comes up I get these crazy chills down my spine. Right from the first chords to the mind-blowing climax, this song just reaches deep into my soul. It's seriously a masterpiece, and I know it's gonna be one of those timeless songs that we'll still be talking about years from now, I mean you even quoted it on this video!! And don't get me started on "I CAN GO ANYWHERE I WANT, JUST NOT HOME"!!!! just iconic.
Haunted is one of my favourite songs of all time! I heard it for the first time when I was 7 listening to Speak Now for the first time (the first album I ever owned and the best album ever made in my opinion) and it STILL gives me chills every single time. Her vocals are absolutely INSANE and the fact that it has strings, electric guitar and those drums at the beginning just overwhelms me in the best possible way! I will never get sick of this song 💜💜💜
This album will always rise to the top for me. Enchanted’s bridge is a reminder of my friend (another Taylor fan) who passed away a few months before the album’s release. Clean is such a stunning track. Blank Space is a stroke of creative genius. Our Song is a BOP. Mirrorball hits way too close to home. You’re On Your Own Kid is perfection. You can’t make me pick one. You can’t.
when taylor sang the best day at her show on MOTHERS DAY i was in an ocean of tears. that is my all time fav song of mine just cus i relate to every word she says about her mother. the love and appreciation just spills out and all a grateful daughter who has an amazing mother could do is repay her, and i sing this song to my mom with all my heart. kisses to all the moms who are here now, before, and after us
this album is such a masterpiece that my favorite song changes every day 😅. mean was definitely the song i listened to constantly through middle school when it came out. i’ve been a swiftie since debut and have been here through it all 😂 as a girl who was a storyteller and dreamer in a small town i immediately gravitated towards her and debut was the first album i ever owned!! i’m so glad i got to grow up alongside her and have gotten to cheer her on as she’s finally reached the level of notoriety she deserves 😊💓
When I was a kid and I knew about Taylor's music but not the pop culture or meaning behind the songs, I associated Innocent with my dad. He made a lot of unsavory choices in his own life when I was young and I always wanted to say "it's okay, all you have to do is change, you can still be innocent." That song kept me hopeful for a long time. And he did eventually turn his life around, and we're closer than ever now 💜
Seeing all of these rerecordings are so precious to me because I've been here since debut days. I remember the first time I listened to her music, shouldve said no came on after listening to Avril. Listened to picture to burn and became obsessed. It's so nice to be able to see newer fans be able to experince these eras and albums that I love and hold so dear.
Peace will always be my favourite Taylor song! It captures so much of my anxiety and how my brain works. I think it shows that despite the surface presentation of any person, they could be completely different once you get to know them, which is something that everyone needs to remember more

Such a cool giveaway I so wanted to buy it when it first came out but I just didn't get a chance to. And for real I thought her perfume was called enchanted and I had to look it up she did have an enchanted one too so I am not crazy 🤪.
Forever Winter is my all time favorite song. It's just so well-written and performed. The lyrics are so deep and- ugh it's just too good! The way the lyrics deal with mental health just hits so close to home and even if it makes me sad, I love the song.
Enchanted has to be my speak now favorite. The entire album is legendary but enchanted was a song that to this day takes me to another spectrum of magical existence when I listen to it. It’s definitely my most played from the album since it released back in 2010.
As someone who was not a fan around Speak Now (in fact didn’t even know the album existed until last year), I’m so excited to be reliving the experience of its release! Some of my new favorite songs are on this album ❤️❤️
My favorite song right now is Hits Different. I love the way its addition to Midnights was more or less a dramatic declaration that it's Joe-ver, and thus completely changed the entire context of the album. I feel like it's addition to the lineup made the other songs completely new to me again, and I just love how symbolic and dynamic this album has become. Beyond that, I also feel like Taylor does SUCH a good job on Hits Difference in balancing an upbeat sound with lyrics that are funny and heartbreaking. I just feel like Taylor's "mastermind" side really comes through in this track's release.
i’m kinda most excited to hear haunted bc of her matured vocals and with how aggressive the vocals are in that song i just think it’s gonna be really cool to hear it with her voice now. i also love fall out boy so to hear them together will be really cool. the song i’m most nervous for is probably better than revenge or never grow up because with better than revenge, is she gonna change the lyrics?? and with never grow up it might destroy me
I’ve always been a Swiftie but the Midnights Era re-sparked something primal in me and I have been die hard obsessed lately. Your videos have been so helpful for educating me!! My favorite song is Mine because of how it used to make me feel about love and I was so lucky to hear it night 3 in Nashville 🥹💜
I'm 7ish months younger then Taylor and so I feel like I grew up with her, meeting our milestones at the same time and it is just insane to see her go from the teenage country star my radio station only had 1 single of to play (literally called to request a song and they said they didn't have it!! 2007ish) to this global phenomenon that just exudes confidence!
This is the MOST magical time to be a Swiftie!!! The Era’s tour and the re-recording era. We are so blessed. I became a fan in 2008 after hearing Love Story for the first time ✨🫶🏻✨ It’s almost illegal to pick a favourite TS song or even a favourite album but I’m picking Willow - because in 2020 during the lockdown my cat and bestie of 22 years died and I was heartbroken! Then later that year I ended up getting a new little kittens that I named Willow. A few weeks later Taylor dropped evermore as a surprise album and that the opening track and lead single was called Willow! That was Willow’s first ever Taylor album to experience with me and it is the most special thing. “Life was a Willow” 🥹 it felt like a sign from Taylor. - That is my, very unhinged, answer! 😂😻
Haunted had me in a chokehold but Speak Now has to be one of my top two albums ever not just from TS. She has such a presence in Speak Now, from her vocals to speaking her truth. Gosh i love being a swiftie;)
I have to say recently my favorite song that’s been on REPEAT is mine. I relate to it so much. Especially how I grew up and the relationship I’m in right now. Being around the same age she wrote and experienced everything she did that inspired this album. I can say I experienced some of these things felt these things and understand the feelings she is showing.
I’m a newer swiftie but the song that I love so much, because it got me into listening to Taylor is enchanted. I listened to it on repeat for weeks before I finally started listening to the rest of her albums. It’s so hard to pick a favourite, I love all of them :)
I could NEVER choose a favorite song from Taylor's, it's practically impossible. I've been a fan of hers through most of her eras and I'm going to choose two Speak Now songs that are SO meaningful to me. Enchanted was exactly how I felt when I met my current boyfriend and the love of my life. Mine describes how I feel about us and our story. During the pandemic I'd go to his place and I didn't have a drawer but I couldn't tell you which clothes of mine were at his place and which at my home. Now we live together and we are planning to get married and it makes me emotional every time I listen to it. I can't believe how long I've been a swiftie for and videos like these where we look back at Taylor's career it also makes us see how long we have come as well
My TH-cam algorithm suggested your video and I don't regret watching it, I became a swiftie in the SPEAK NOW era, but got detached to taylor for a long time after that, but again I came back in the 1989 era, and here I am crying over SPEAK NOW, man the charm SPEAK NOW has that can't be replicated in any of the albums. Every one of the songs make me cry and open up the wounds.
Better Man is my favorite because of just how raw and honest it is. As someone who went through a similar situation of just wanting someone to be better, and knowing that it was better to leave than stay, it brings me to tears every time. It’s just one of those songs that is never a skip and just show how immensely talented Taylor is at capturing situations like this. 💜💜
Speak now has always been my favorite album. It was the first concert I had ever been to and I remember being on my dads shoulders singing “Never Grow Up” and it was just such a special moment. This album will always have such a special place in my heart🩷
I became a Swiftie 6 years ago. My favorite albums are 💖Lover💖and🌲evermore🌲I'm truly in ✧"Wonderland"✧ whenever I listen to ANY songs of Taylor. I'm so excited to listen to 💜Speak now.💜
My favorite song is Illicit Affairs. I love every second of it. During one of the darkest, loneliest time of my life, this was one of the few songs that my heart could hear. I used to replay the first 15 seconds over and over because of how lovely it sounds. The gentle string plucking and whimsical whispery vocals always soothed my racing anxiety. The lyrics would wrap gauze over my wounds. I could relate to every aspect of the song from making yourself hidden (“hood over your head, keep your eyes down”) to frustration building and the feeling of everything falling apart (“look at this godforsaken mess that you made me, you showed me colors you know I can’t see with anyone else”). Illicit Affairs actually feels like a “secret language I can’t speak with anyone else” to me. It pulls me out of the whirlpool of overthinking and into a place where I can see more clearly. Illicit Affairs is truthful, nurturing, painful, and accepting. From the guitar plucking and whispers to the cathartic strumming and holding back from screaming the words, Illicit Affairs guides me through the midnight forest and into the light of the spring.

My favorite Taylor song is constantly changing for many reasons, the power that this woman has to create so many songs that are catchy, emotional and absolute bops, but at the current moment my fave is Snow on the Beach ft more Lana del Rey, it just sounds so melodic, something that could play in my wildest dreams, and Lana, God, that women, she litteraly made me ascend to heaven, and it actually is a very good metaphor to love to snow, because it's true, love is weird yet it's beautiful!
I’m a MOM of a young woman who’s the same age as Taylor. She made me a fan. I’m a former English teacher, and I always say Taylor is a born poet of our time. She is amazing.
My favorite Taylor song, since the day it was released, is august. It’s literally the sound of late summer, the production is some of Jack’s best, and the writing is so pretty.
My favorite Taylor Swift song is actually Dear John . After literally all of these years it still hits just as hard every single time , and I am going to lose my ever loving mind when TV comes out ❤
As a new Swiftie this is so amazing and helpful to watch! I love learning all the backstories to her songs. It’s insane how much there is to learn! Also I just found out yesterday she’s is coming to my home country for the first time 🇵🇱❤️
I’m so lucky to be a lifelong swiftie right now 😭😭 my all time fav taylor song is back to december, i remember listening to this song as a little kid and loving it and being so confused why someone would leave someone they love so much, but a couple years ago i was in the same situation. this song is so meaningful because it shows how you can grow up with taylor, and how she can really be your big sister.
haunted(acoustic version) is my favorite song! anything acoustic that blondie does is incredible!! when she pleads “i know” over and over i get chills, its a song i can scream cry to. speak now will forever and always be my favorite era! thank you ally for always giving us a space💜💜
My favorite taylor swift song is EASILY Enchanted. When I was 10, both me and one of my childhood best friends moved (across the country to completely opposite sides) at the same time. I was, of course, sad, but because we were mainly friends when we were little, I kinda forgot about him. But one day, THREE years later, my mom told me he was going to have a major surgery and that his mom had a blog documenting it all. And that blog helped me rediscovered this boy who I used to know so well. Every day, I checked the blog looking for an update on his situation. I learned a lot about him, and saw some pictures of what he looked like now. I fell in love (obviously not REAL love, but I was definitely intensely infatuated). It made me realize how much I missed him and wanted to see him again. I discovered the song Enchanted around this time (before it blew up on tiktok and now everyone loves it), but that song really reeeeally spoke to me. Because it was about the overwhelming desire to see someone again, and since you don’t actually know anything about them, you hope they aren’t in love. It’s about the whimsical and almost irrational feeling of falling in love in a split second, and making it a central theme/important moment in your life. And that was EXACTLY how I felt. I wanted, more than ANYTHING in the ENTIRE WORLD to see him again. I wanted to love him again. But over the course of the next few years, neither him or I traveled close to where the other person lived, and so I never got to see him. It’s been 6 years since I discovered Enchanted, and it isn’t any less special to me now than it was then. I get so emotional and almost cry every time I listen to it. And guess what! FINALLY, after nearly 8 years of not even speaking to this boy, I get to see him again NEXT WEEK!!! I’m finally visiting him and his family and I could not be more excited. I’m so grateful for the song Enchanted because It’s carried me through this fantasy for so long. Thank you taylor swift 🫶 insta: abby_carolina6
@@AllySheehanupdate: okay so ive been here at his house for the past couple of days and it’s been SOOOO incredibly amazing!!! he’s the sweetest guy in the whole world and really accomplished with everything he does. can’t wait to get to know him better, i’ll hopefully know him for a long time!!
@@AllySheehan oh also-i gave him my number yesterday!!! i’m hoping to keep in contact with him and maybe over time, something will happen between us ☺️
my favorite taylor swift song at the moment is “i’m only me when i’m with you” because it reminds me of a few friendships that i have and how natural they’ve felt ‘cause we shouldn’t have to change when we have something real! i loooooove it💚💚💚
i became a swiftie during 1989 but my favorite song switches quite often, depending on my mood. it’s hard to pick one! i’d say currently “hits different” has me in a chokehold. i absolutely love the boppy melody juxtaposed with the depressing lyricism. and the little vocal run she does during the verse is so addicting to listen to. the bridge cuts into my very soul. i cannot get enough. so good! always love your videos, and this one was superb. absolutely cannot wait to listen to speak now (taylor’s version)!
I’m actually still a baby swiftie (2021!) so I’m so glad that you’ve made this video to explain everything that’s been happening in 2010! I’ve been surrounded by Taylor fans for a while and I never really got the hype, so one day I asked my best friend to make a playlist for me to introduce me to Taylor’s music and she was like „IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS FOR SO LONG!!” and an hour later I had a playlist made for me with an explanation for every song. (Also the fact that she named the playlist „blondiefication”… her mind). The songs that initially hooked me the most from her playlist were Death By A Thousand Cuts and Haunted, so I guess they’re the songs that made me a swiftie BUT after a while a song that wasn’t even included in the playlist became my favourite and it’s… Holy Ground. I don’t know what kind of drug did she put in this song, but whenever I hear it I get +100 to my mood. When I play this song I immediately want to jump around my bedroom and scream the lyrics and let the neighbours know how happy I am. And even though I’m dancing in my bedroom I think that „I don't wanna dance if I'm not dancing with you” (whoever my crush is at the moment). Also, one oddly specific thing - the way she sings the word „lose” in the stolen version? Chills down my spine!! ig: @alipowska
I had 2 best friends at different times of my childhood that introduced debut and fearless to me and I was in denial because she was such a woman and I sheltered the feminine parts of me. Eventually I gave in and she helps me embrace every side of me that I was afraid to show. She is mother now and I’ve seen her twice in concert and I will always go see her again.
‘Mine’ was my favourite Taylor Swift song as a child and even now after many years, it still is. I remember stumbling across the music video when I was about 10 and being mesmerized by the story she was telling. And when I re-listened to it last year, I cried because I now deeply related to the lyrics. ‘You learn my secrets and you figure out why I’m guarded’ ‘braced myself for the goodbye, cause that’s all I’ve ever known, but you took me by surprise, you said ‘I’ll never leave you alone’’ I didn’t really understand those words as a child but lord knows I do now. Even though the song hits hard for me, it’s become very healing and reassuring because in the end it works out. ‘Dear John’ is also a recent favourite of mine due to it applying almost perfectly to a pretty traumatic friendship break up I went through last July (not so funnily enough). I can’t wait for Taylor’s version’s of both the songs!
“August” is the song that sent me over the edge when it came out! I had just moved to a new place and it defined my life during that time. It really solidified me as a whole fan after being a casual fan for so long. Love your channel so much and it’s an honor to be in this fandom w u all!!
Omg Ally can u pls do the same for all her albums 🥹 like a swiftory behind each album?! You gave me so much info and tea in this and I wanted to find a similar vid for fearless and red re-records but… I couldn’t :( LOVE ur reac vids but yeah if we can get this kind of deep dive for what’s behind every song/swiftory for every album - it would be amazing , iconic and legendary!! Xxx
I’m literally crying. Speak Now is my favourite album and have always wanted to have the wonderstruck perfume. My favourite song is Enchanted and it has been since I first found Taylor. The first song I ever heard was Enchanted and it has stuck with me throughout the years. I always have a person or feeling I can relate to Enchanted and the song gives me 5 minutes of emotion. As a young swiftie I would love to start my collection of Taylor’s cd’s and share my love of Taylor with others.💜💜💜
Speak Now held my hand through some of the darkest years of my entire life. I honestly don't know where I'd be without Taylor. I first heard her singing Fifteen live on some XM-radio station before Debut came out. I loved her instantly! I told everyone I knew about this new girl I heard on the radio and I will never to be able to explain the excitement I felt when I heard Debut for the first time. I showed everyone while screaming "this is her! This is the girl I've been talking about!" My brother and I have been Swifties ever since. I'm 38 now and he's 33. We've been pointing at her picture telling everyone her name both before and after we had kids. Swifties for life 💖
Long live is my favorite song just because it is so sweet and its a letter to her fans. Also the part where it goes "tell me how the crowds went wild" I just love how its like seperated between each word. Its just an amazing song. Long live was also the first song i ever heard from speak now and speak now has become my favorite album. Unfortunatly i was just a small child when the album came out though so I never got to experience it so I am very excited for the rerelease. 💜💜💜
My favorite Taylor song of all time is The Lucky One. “Why?” You might ask, well here’s why: Number 1: the overall message. Overlooking the boy this song is about, this song is all about someone in the spotlight realizing how much the spotlight will effect their life. She realizes that her life will not ever be private because of her career. I also love how she grows throughout the song. She talks about how people who become famous often end up hiding to protect themselves, but then she realizes why they do this because of the constant spotlight. (This is also crazy to me because she ends up going into hiding eventually to protect herself so this whole song was like foreshadowing her later life) Number 2: the “hidden” message. The hidden message for this song was “Wouldn’t you like to know” and as a swifite, YES! I would like to know! But Taylor knows that she is trying her hardest to keep her life so private. But putting aside wanting her to feel safe in her relationships, I would LOVE to know every detail about her life (even though I value her privacy and would never want Tay to feel threatened) Aaannnndd number 3: just a fun little extra detail, but this song is the 13th track and we all know how amazing the number 13 is, and how special this number is to Miss Tay Tay.

Thank you for this video!!! Im a massive paramore fan, so seeing their support for Speak Now TV made me wanna listen to her music and WOW im definitely having such a crazy good time listening to her music!!! And i love finding more out about the “lore” of an artist and their art 🥰
My favorite song currently is Out of the Woods. The fact that Taylor was able to take such a stressful and painful time and put it into a song that is the definition of a masterpiece. The song as a whole invokes a memory that was a hidden and a time that was forgotten.
Hi! I just started watching your videos and I'm a fan! I've been a casual fan since Speak Now, but the album that cemented me as a hardcore Swiftie was Folklore which is still my top favorite album! Also the fact that "Mine" was used in sapphic context on Glee makes me SO VERY HAPPY.
my favorite song that tears me up every time i hear it is marjorie. it’s so significant for me because of my connection with my gramma, and having every scrap of her taken from me as a result of dementia. when evermore was released, i was living with my gramma to take care of her because she was so suddenly and severely affected by her memory loss that she couldn’t live alone anymore. when i heard the lyrics, "if i didn't know better, i'd think you were talking / listening / singing to me now," i thought about the painful reality that my gramma was physically present, yet mentally distant. this is different from taylor’s experience but also parallels both our desperate longing J̲ust to be able to talk with our grandmothers again, despite the circumstances that prevent it. and of course the bridge hits the hardest, with the “A̲utumn chill that wakes me up” reminding me of the cold wyoming air that would fill her house since she always slept with the windows open. and she truly did love the amber skies so much, eagerly waiting until suN̲set every day to pull back the curtains and look out her kitchen window; perpetually fascinated by how the scene in front of her was different from yesterdays. always commenting on the intricacies of the cloud wisps to the hues of pI̲nk and orange, she really knew how to appreciate the little things that made life beautiful for her. somehow taylor is able to evoke all of these memories and emotions from me in just S̲even words. there’s no way i could ever describe all the ways that this song and evermore as a whole mean so much to me, but in the end it’s a poignant reminder of the precious connection and love i share with my gramma, reminding me to cherish the memories we made when we still could. yet i will always grieve the loss of the vibrant, engaging person she used to be, especially while living with the complex and contradictory reality that i know better, but she’s still around. instagram: kenny.the.real edit: i forgot to mention that gramma would always save magazine and newspaper clippings with taylor swift for me any time she saw them because she knew how much of a fan i am, even back in 2008 :) love you gramma
As a new Swiftie I wanted to thank you. I've only recently fallen in love with taylor's incredible writing and storytelling and ever since I've been trying to understand more of her story and the context behind lots of songs and lyrics but it hasn't been that easy. Your videos have the exact amount of depth of analysis that i'm lookin for to appreciate taylor even more. (i loved how you analysed would've could've should've as it was a poem in english literature). That being said I'm in a process of discovering, so my favourite song changes constantly (it also depends on what i'm going through). At the moment it has to be Happiness, from evermore. I'm not very good at expressing myself or my feelings (another reason why I love taylor so much) so it's difficoult for me to explain how that song makes me feel. It's both a gut feeling created by the melody and Taylor's wonderful vocals and appreciation for the theme and the words used. Starting peaceful and calm and building up to convey grief, sadness, anger and at last aceptance. It's a journey charged with such strong emotions that touch me on such a deep level I don't even understand why. Lately i've found myself listening to it on repeat multiple times allowing me to exit my world and focus on these emotions. Other than that english is my second language and I especially admire how taylor uses words, she makes me fall in love with the english language more than I already am. This is my instagram to enter the giveaway @mstlsn
I loved a lot of her singles from Fearless, but Speak Now is what MADE ME A FAN. It was her first album I tore through start to finish, and loved every song. Comparing it to theater kid energy makes so much sense lmfao. I adore this album and I am so beyond ready for this re-release T_T
This album means so much to me, so i could never pick a favourite song. But still, I remember being 16 and listening to Last Kiss over and over again, not because i could relate to it, but because it captured feelings of loss, love, tranquility and just being in a moment. It helped me to overcome my anxiety at the time and inspired me to make art or write fanfictions (yeah). I'm beyond excitement about the re-recording of Speak Now and can't wait to listen to it as I've grown up, so has Taylor💜
I’ve been a swiftie since our song, fearless is so nostalgic to me as it reminds me of my teenage years as does red - I think my favourite song (I really can’t choose but if I had to) would have to be all too well - I saw it as the masterpiece it is from the second I heard it and it’s been a part of so many eras of my life from school to university and into adulthood. It’s so perfect and will always always be one of her best in every way! ♥️
all too well is just top tier. it’s my all time favorite, it has sadness, wisdom, maturity, anger, sarcasm, it acknowledges that you can understand and know so many things but you can’t fully internalize them because you can’t forget feelings. the lyrics are poetry, and genius. it’s a masterpiece. it is honest it is rare. something about it feels like home somehow.
I'm so excited for this re-release and the vault tracks! I'm 30, and I've been a fan of Taylor since her first album, which came out when I was in middle school. It's really special because it feels like I've grown up with her, and every album correlates with things I was also going through at the time in my personal life
Speak Now was the album for me that really got me obsessed with Taylor. It’s so special to me and I literally cannot wait until July!! I remember getting Wonderstuck for Christmas way back when and I’m so sad I didn’t hold on to the empty bottle 😂 For me, Love Story was the first song I heard of Taylor’s and remains my all time favourite. It may be basic but I can’t help but still get emotional every time I hear it, it has such a hold over me 💜💛
Love Story is mine, too. The first time I heard of her was when she did that on Ellen. I'm severely empathetic and romantic and it took a very long time for me to be able to sing along without crying at the "spoke to your dad go pick out a white dress..." part.
love story isnt my favorite song but I wanted to compliment you by saying I’m happy people aren’t afraid to say such popular songs are their favorites because some people think that is being a “noob” but if you know many of her other songs I don’t think there is anything wrong with your favorite song being a hit
@@SlayPlus Thanks! It's not my all-time favorite, but it's the first time that I ever saw or heard of her back when she was promoting Fearless and I was immediately hooked :) It holds a special place for me. I'm old enough to not care what someone thinks of my favorite songs, anyway. #teamnochill I don't understand the hate that ME! gets. She wrote it for little kids and it's a happy song and she was so happy making it, so it makes me happy. I think that people who hate on her more fun simple lyric songs are bringing the same vibe as JG making her feel like her songs weren't cool enough. My only skip is Ronan because it's too emotionally hard to listen to. I've got two kids under the age of 10 and I can't let my mind go there. I've listened to it all the way through only once.
I am 51 & just became a huge fan a few months ago when my cousin (a Swiftie from forever) invited me to go to the Eras concert in March. I have signed on 100% & cannot stop -full stop - consuming EVERYTHING Taylor. She is pure & simple everything that is right in humanity. I’m OCD obsessed with her bc she’s THAT amazing! Ok maybe there’s something wrong with me
I am SOOOO HAPPY to finally find someone who appreciate this masterpiece as much as I do 💜 Mine was the first video of her I've watched so I truly am emotionally atached to that song. It was at Speak Now era that I became a swiftie so this album is really special to me. I hope she plays Long Live in Brasil's shows 💜
Eu tô amando encontrar hoje as Speak Now girlies que eu não tive qdo conheci a Taylor 😍 Tb conheci ela nessa época mas meu primeiro vídeo foi Mean hehe 💜 E simmmmm!!!! Torcendo demais pra ela cantar Long Live aqui 🙏🏻
Oh my gosh my eyes teared up when you showed the two times she announced Speak Now - she’s come so far and I know I don’t know her personally but I’m so proud of her and I’m so proud to be a fan 💜
I am a new swiftie but my sister is a long term fan!! I’m so exited to be part of this amazing community 💜💜 this era is an amazing time to join and I love Taylor so much!! I’m learning to play her songs on my guitar and I love your videos so much! They really helped me join this community and understand all the things that are Taylor! She is and amazing role model and so are you! Stay safe to whoever is reading this and please “just be yourself, there is no one better” -ts herself 💜💜💜💜💜
It's so hard to pick a favorite, but Our Song is the BOP of my childhood, and one of my all time favorites is Back to December!! So beautifully written, I'm always in awe of the way she's able to convey such specific feelings so poignantly.
I’ve been a Taylor fan my whole life but I never know the stories behind my favorite songs it’s so interesting and I’m so glad I know this before I go to the concert it kinda gives the songs a whole new meaning to me!!!thank you sm 💜
this is amazing and perfect for me and my brother to start getting into her! so thank you so fckin much! maybe if you think you can and want to, then maybeee you can do this for all her albums? start with the re-recordings that are already out. Me and my homie are now listing fearless and gonna watch the tourfilm next week. but from the og songs en video’s till the vault tracks, there is so much information we r missing. And if there was one able to make a video with the right information, it would be you my friend. but thanks again! greetings from the netherlands! :)
cardigan is most indefinitely my favorite Taylor song because it can be used in the term of being cheated on or a best friend or friend stabbing you in the back and then either way trying to come back to you and pretend everything is/will be ok. It is also a beautiful song that has a mixture of emotions behind it. Overall I love the song soooo much and could listen to it on repeat for hours.
i don't think i'd be able to pick a favorite song from her entire discography, but one that always hits hard is marjorie!! the chorus especially always resonates with me, as i find many small things around me that remind me of my own late grandmother, so it's always a nice reminder that "what died didn't stay dead". overall just to listen to tho, i LOVE ready for it. i wasn't the hugest fan of rep originally, but it's grown on me and now this is one of my go-to hype songs :^)
It is literally impossible to pick a favorite song but clean has got to be in at least one of my top three. This song, in some way, is just so reassuring to me to be able to say even after every thing you can still brush yourself off, stand up and be “clean”. Also, yelling “and the sky turned black like a perfect storm” never gets old.
I'm so happy that Ally has gotten over 70,000! Unfortunately, I don't have Instagram, but it's a personal choice... Anyway, I thought I should share my favorite Taylor Swift song is my tears ricochet because I was able to relate to it, quite personally. I no longer relate to it, but it's also one of her best-written songs, and the production always moves me to tears... I love how cinematic it feels. I could dissect every line and what it means to me, but... I won't bore anybody. Anyway... Congrats to Ally, lovely to see her get this kind of success, and how sweet to do a giveaway! 😊
love your videos!! favorite lyric is "if the story is over then why am i still writing pages". ive struggled a lot with time slipping away everyone moving on but im till stuck in the same place with a lot left to say.
i was singing along to picture to burn at age 3 and have loved taylor ever since!as an ‘04 baby whose favorite album is speak now i am so thankful for this video, ally! i’m a diehard swiftie but there’s obviously so much i missed being so young at the time of the speak now release! can’t wait for her version 🫶🏻🫶🏻
As a fellow melbourne girl, Long Live is THE surprise song I've been hoping, dreaming, dying to keep for our show! It's also the one I'm most nervous to hear on SN(TV) because I'm so attached to young Taylor's vocals singing those lyrics, I can't imagine the rerecorded version having the same effect on me. (Side note - 7/7 is my birthday, so this is like taylor's present to me!)
This is such an exciting time to be a Swiftie! I mean how many other fandoms can relish 7 albums in 4 years. Incredible 💜
taylor’s so amazing!!! i totally agree- 7 albums in 4 years is so incredible
My favorite song at the moment is “You’re Losing Me”.❤
I totally agree!!!😝💜
I can confirm this, best time 💜
@@Seana2276 mine is Enchanted 😌
WHEN YOU SAID “the greatest album of all time.” I GASPED BECAUSE IVE NEVER MET SOMEOEN WHO LOVES SPEAK NOW AS MUCH AS I DO AND IT MADE ME FEEL SO VALIDATED 😭
AGREED
i feel like speak now is one of the most underrated albums (almost even with evermore)
i mean, when a friend of mine told me (a long time ago) her fav album was sn i was like what does it have of special bcs i just didn't know
but once you start listening it's just GOLDDDD i swear it's my fav album ever and i'm not even that into country music
for real, every time i play any song i feel like flying
YESS I feel like everyone sleeps on speak now when it has such bangers
Part of the group too... I dont understand why people are not obsessed with speak now... every song is a masterpiece...
I have listened to her forever, and thought i was a Red and Rep girl…. but no…. EVERY song on this album slaps and is my fave… ugh!
Yes it's the masterpiece
Can you do this for every era? I seriously think everyone wants to get the backstory to Tay's amazing life and albums
Speak Now has NO weak songs, all bangers, all brilliant lyrically and musically, can’t believe how long we have gone having that not acknowledged. SO stoked for TV!
Exactly
frr
I only became a Swiftie during the Folklore era, but Speak Now has always been one of my favourite albums ever… I can not contain my excitement for this release😭😭
Same
i love folklore!
I am also Swiftie since Folklore, and you have no idea how exciting it is to have new albums so quickly (I never wanted to give any money to... Those people)
For me it was the 1989 era
New baby swiftie here! I'm almost 30 and was fully in the "I hate Taylor for no reason other than internalized misogyny" camp for YEARS. The ONLY song I LOVED of hers throughout the years was Mean. I would literally say I hate tswift but mean is a banger lol. I really started opening up to her music after watching Miss Americana on Netflix and it made me CRY. The next year, midnights came out and my love of her solidified! I'm currently learning her backlog of music (i've been through my rep era, my folklore era, and now dipping my toes into evermore) but I'm a person that LOVES hearing backstory and connections to songs, since I dont really know where to start in an album. THANK YOU for being so welcoming and excited and sharing all your elder swiftie knowledge, i'm obsessed with your energy!
You gotta listen to every album :)))
The Story of Us is gold! I never ever ever get sick of it, it’s such a well rounded presentation of anger, frustration, affection, confusion, disappointment and shows just how complicated relationships are. I know she wrote it about a romance but the song helped me a ton to get through a breakup that I had with my best friend because Taylor’s emotions are so so raw. I love Taylor and Ally!!!!
💗
(We Are Never Ever Getting) sick of it
Omg story of us helped me get through a friend breakup too!
The Story Of Us is also my best friend breakup song!!
Who's Ally though?
"Long Live" is my absolute fav Taylor song. It's magical, inspiring and uplifting, it makes me feel like I'm invincible. "New Romantics" is a close second. Both anthemic songs for swifties
SAME!!!
Cause baby I could build a caaastleeee out of all the bricks the threw at meeeee
Dear John is one of my favorite Taylor songs ever. I was 7 when Speak Now came out and listened to it for years. Now I’m 20 and actually understand the lyrics. Listening to the album at the same age Taylor was when she wrote it is a whole different experience. The change from “I should’ve known” to “YOU should’ve known” always gets me!
Me exactly 🥹
The way how her voice has matured and gotten so UNREAL is mind-blowing! She is such an amazing artist in every way.
I became a Swiftie during her Lover era, but had always know a few of her earlier songs. And instead of going back and listing to the stolen albums, I’ve been waiting for the re-recordings to hear them for the first time and your video is making me SUPER EXCITED to hear Speak Now Taylor’s Version💜💜💜
That's so sweet ❤
No song has ever made me feel the same way I felt when I heard seven from the folklore album. Being the oldest daughter in a Mexican family and being the the first Mexican American in the family comes with its down sides. That not a lot of people can understand Having to grow up and mature before others , before I was ready. Being so scared to disappoint my parents, knowing everything that they gave up to give me the opportunities that I have today. When she sings the bridge it feels like she’s talking to me. The lyrics hold such a deep meaning for me. Seven is my all time favorite song from Taylor, it holds a every special place in my heart.
Yesss I’m also a Mexican girl (the only girl in my family) and this song resonates so much with me!
One of my fave songs as well. Beautifully said!
Not familiar, checking out now.. but love what's you said.
Seven is one of my favourites too. I sing it to my baby when he’s going to sleep ❤
It's crazy to think the first Taylor song I loved was "Our Song" all the way back in Debut era, and yet I didn't become a true Swiftie until 1989. It is too hard to pick a favorite song but, I will say that I'm about to walk down the aisle to an instrumental version of "Lover" at my wedding in 22 days so I think that is going to forever have a special place in my heart 🥰
It played at my wedding too! In my country the groom walks down the aisle as well, and my husband chose an instrumental version of Lover, I was so proud😂 Wish you all the happiness in the world.
@@marilima9986 you got a good one! 😂 that is amazing
Omg that's so sweet!!! Mine is Best Day because my mom is my best friend
My favorite Taylor Swift song has always been enchanted. I had never been in love before when Speak Now originally came out but there were a few people that had left me wonderstruck and hopeful that it would turn into something more. It just describes that feeling so beautifully. I played the song so much in my car that all my friends who were not swifties would belt out the lyrics with me. Memories ❤
It is crazy to me that Speak Now actually sold less than her debut, to me that is THE TS album. I started listening to her in debut era because my parents listened to country pop radio; “Our Song” was the first song of hers I ever heard. I had the Fearless CD, but when my sibling got the Speak Now CD it was all I ever wanted to listen to! I was obsessed with it, and I loved finding the hidden messages in the album booklet! Unfortunately when “Red” came out I kind of fell out of listening to her because I was still a country music girlie and I felt betrayed 🥲 so then I didn’t really pay attention to 1989 or Rep, and I’m angry at my past self for that because the first time I listened to Rep (years after its release) I was FLOORED by how good it was.
Anyway, I started listening to her again in Lover era casually and then folklore saved my life in 2020 and now I’m in deep 😂
Haunted is currently my favorite song! I’ve loved it since I was nine years old. Just the urgency in the song and her gasping for air between lyrics really encapsulates the emotions she’s trying to portray. Also her live performance with the bell is iconic 🔔
Ikr! I only just saw the bell performance as I’ve been looking at more Speak Now era stuff and it’s so iconic! A while ago I listened to it while running and I felt so powerful! I’m not much of a runner but I could probably start if I felt like I was running through a castle during a fantasy battle or something listening to Haunted
My favourite song literally changes every 2 days but since i’ve started listening to taytay i’ve absolutely LOVED dancing with our hands tied! I think it’s the perfect love song and i expecially love the acoustic version of it she played as a surprise song in the rep tour
Forever a rep girlie
hiii, i don’t mean to be rude but just fyi taylor dosent like being called “taytay” due to they used that nickname to make fun of her, just so u know 🤍
dancing with our hands is INCREDIBLE. also my favourite song, but SO underrated!!!
@@valll..i haven’t heard abt this before, where did she say that?
I have always found that song dialogue between Taylor and Adam Young sooooo sweet and wholesome. I can't understand how underrated that was, it's just GOALS
I'm totally not crying at only 14 minutes into the video....I've been following Taylor for 17 years now and I am just so incredibly proud of her!
my older sister downloaded all of taylor’s music on to her ipod and would let me listen to it and speak now has always been my favorite album. i preordered the cd and pre-saved the album on spotify :)
I think that’s how my sister feels…
Speak Now was the first Taylor album I owned as a gift from my big sister and being roughly the same age she was when she gave it to me is something I can’t even put into words feels like a full circle moment and I’m so excited for SNTV 💜
As a new swiftie, it is awesome to experience the release of Taylor's versions. 💗💗
I have always loved Speak Now, specifically Long Live. As i've gotten older, the song has made me more and more emotional. The feeling of being apart of something bigger than yourself, surrounded by others who feel the same, and so strongly. It's such an unbelievable feeling.
I literally started balling while listening to Long Live TV this morning. It's perfect.
I grew up listening to Taylor Swift on the radio. Being a 23 year old woman I haven't known life without her music, but for me, Reputation was the first album that really made me fall in love with her. It was very different from anything she had put out before and it really spoke to my rage filled, longing, romantic, angsty 17 year old self. I remember waiting for each music video to come out and watching them over and over on TH-cam.
Mine was speak now I remember seeing the cd for it and instantly falling in love. I am a casual swiftie and now I am listening to her newest albums after reputation.
My tears ricochet is seriously my all-time favorite song ever!! It's honestly impossible for me to skip it when it. And when minute 2:20 comes up I get these crazy chills down my spine. Right from the first chords to the mind-blowing climax, this song just reaches deep into my soul. It's seriously a masterpiece, and I know it's gonna be one of those timeless songs that we'll still be talking about years from now, I mean you even quoted it on this video!! And don't get me started on "I CAN GO ANYWHERE I WANT, JUST NOT HOME"!!!! just iconic.
i scream that line every time, its just that powerful
i think my favorite song is tied together with a smile. as someone who's recovering from an ED, it still gets me emotional.
@ abbyshaeg
Haunted is one of my favourite songs of all time! I heard it for the first time when I was 7 listening to Speak Now for the first time (the first album I ever owned and the best album ever made in my opinion) and it STILL gives me chills every single time. Her vocals are absolutely INSANE and the fact that it has strings, electric guitar and those drums at the beginning just overwhelms me in the best possible way! I will never get sick of this song 💜💜💜
Haunted was the first song I ever listened to from speak Now, and I loved it. Nowadays, I like Enchanted best, but I still like haunted
This album will always rise to the top for me. Enchanted’s bridge is a reminder of my friend (another Taylor fan) who passed away a few months before the album’s release. Clean is such a stunning track. Blank Space is a stroke of creative genius. Our Song is a BOP. Mirrorball hits way too close to home. You’re On Your Own Kid is perfection. You can’t make me pick one. You can’t.
So true❤😅
I know right! I picked along Live as my favorite because of the sentimental value but SHE HAS SO MANY BOPS
“The only thing you will regret more than the words left unsaid, are the words that intentionally hurt someone.” - Taylor Swift
Be kind :)
when taylor sang the best day at her show on MOTHERS DAY i was in an ocean of tears. that is my all time fav song of mine just cus i relate to every word she says about her mother. the love and appreciation just spills out and all a grateful daughter who has an amazing mother could do is repay her, and i sing this song to my mom with all my heart.
kisses to all the moms who are here now, before, and after us
this album is such a masterpiece that my favorite song changes every day 😅. mean was definitely the song i listened to constantly through middle school when it came out. i’ve been a swiftie since debut and have been here through it all 😂 as a girl who was a storyteller and dreamer in a small town i immediately gravitated towards her and debut was the first album i ever owned!! i’m so glad i got to grow up alongside her and have gotten to cheer her on as she’s finally reached the level of notoriety she deserves 😊💓
dear john has literally shaken me to my core in every single way good and bad. i know every lyric by heart, and i love the story the song told.
When I was a kid and I knew about Taylor's music but not the pop culture or meaning behind the songs, I associated Innocent with my dad. He made a lot of unsavory choices in his own life when I was young and I always wanted to say "it's okay, all you have to do is change, you can still be innocent." That song kept me hopeful for a long time. And he did eventually turn his life around, and we're closer than ever now 💜
Seeing all of these rerecordings are so precious to me because I've been here since debut days. I remember the first time I listened to her music, shouldve said no came on after listening to Avril. Listened to picture to burn and became obsessed. It's so nice to be able to see newer fans be able to experince these eras and albums that I love and hold so dear.
Careful, the other comment is a scam
Peace will always be my favourite Taylor song! It captures so much of my anxiety and how my brain works. I think it shows that despite the surface presentation of any person, they could be completely different once you get to know them, which is something that everyone needs to remember more
same omf i LOVE peace

UPDATE: Congrats to @popcornandpuddles for winning our first ever giveaway!
Love EVERY single video you make about Taylor. Your energy just sparks!!!
ally i will literally never not like (love) one of your videos 💜💜
Such a cool giveaway I so wanted to buy it when it first came out but I just didn't get a chance to. And for real I thought her perfume was called enchanted and I had to look it up she did have an enchanted one too so I am not crazy 🤪.
Video quality is always amazing, Ally! Feels like I’m at home watching your videos (especially since we share our top 3 ts albums)!
Hi, I updated mine!!!
Forever Winter is my all time favorite song. It's just so well-written and performed. The lyrics are so deep and- ugh it's just too good! The way the lyrics deal with mental health just hits so close to home and even if it makes me sad, I love the song.
Enchanted has to be my speak now favorite. The entire album is legendary but enchanted was a song that to this day takes me to another spectrum of magical existence when I listen to it. It’s definitely my most played from the album since it released back in 2010.
As someone who was not a fan around Speak Now (in fact didn’t even know the album existed until last year), I’m so excited to be reliving the experience of its release! Some of my new favorite songs are on this album ❤️❤️
ahhh welcome! i'm so excited for you :)
Sameee
My favorite song right now is Hits Different. I love the way its addition to Midnights was more or less a dramatic declaration that it's Joe-ver, and thus completely changed the entire context of the album. I feel like it's addition to the lineup made the other songs completely new to me again, and I just love how symbolic and dynamic this album has become. Beyond that, I also feel like Taylor does SUCH a good job on Hits Difference in balancing an upbeat sound with lyrics that are funny and heartbreaking. I just feel like Taylor's "mastermind" side really comes through in this track's release.
omg that's so true it's such a banger
JOEVER
i’m kinda most excited to hear haunted bc of her matured vocals and with how aggressive the vocals are in that song i just think it’s gonna be really cool to hear it with her voice now. i also love fall out boy so to hear them together will be really cool. the song i’m most nervous for is probably better than revenge or never grow up because with better than revenge, is she gonna change the lyrics?? and with never grow up it might destroy me
I’ve always been a Swiftie but the Midnights Era re-sparked something primal in me and I have been die hard obsessed lately. Your videos have been so helpful for educating me!! My favorite song is Mine because of how it used to make me feel about love and I was so lucky to hear it night 3 in Nashville 🥹💜
Literally, me too
I'm 7ish months younger then Taylor and so I feel like I grew up with her, meeting our milestones at the same time and it is just insane to see her go from the teenage country star my radio station only had 1 single of to play (literally called to request a song and they said they didn't have it!! 2007ish) to this global phenomenon that just exudes confidence!
This is the MOST magical time to be a Swiftie!!! The Era’s tour and the re-recording era. We are so blessed. I became a fan in 2008 after hearing Love Story for the first time ✨🫶🏻✨
It’s almost illegal to pick a favourite TS song or even a favourite album but I’m picking Willow - because in 2020 during the lockdown my cat and bestie of 22 years died and I was heartbroken! Then later that year I ended up getting a new little kittens that I named Willow. A few weeks later Taylor dropped evermore as a surprise album and that the opening track and lead single was called Willow! That was Willow’s first ever Taylor album to experience with me and it is the most special thing. “Life was a Willow” 🥹 it felt like a sign from Taylor. - That is my, very unhinged, answer! 😂😻
Haunted had me in a chokehold but Speak Now has to be one of my top two albums ever not just from TS. She has such a presence in Speak Now, from her vocals to speaking her truth. Gosh i love being a swiftie;)
I love Haunted so much and I was so sad that I missed having that as my surprise song by a day
I have to say recently my favorite song that’s been on REPEAT is mine. I relate to it so much. Especially how I grew up and the relationship I’m in right now. Being around the same age she wrote and experienced everything she did that inspired this album. I can say I experienced some of these things felt these things and understand the feelings she is showing.
I’m a newer swiftie but the song that I love so much, because it got me into listening to Taylor is enchanted. I listened to it on repeat for weeks before I finally started listening to the rest of her albums. It’s so hard to pick a favourite, I love all of them :)
SAME OMG!
I could NEVER choose a favorite song from Taylor's, it's practically impossible. I've been a fan of hers through most of her eras and I'm going to choose two Speak Now songs that are SO meaningful to me. Enchanted was exactly how I felt when I met my current boyfriend and the love of my life. Mine describes how I feel about us and our story. During the pandemic I'd go to his place and I didn't have a drawer but I couldn't tell you which clothes of mine were at his place and which at my home. Now we live together and we are planning to get married and it makes me emotional every time I listen to it. I can't believe how long I've been a swiftie for and videos like these where we look back at Taylor's career it also makes us see how long we have come as well
My TH-cam algorithm suggested your video and I don't regret watching it, I became a swiftie in the SPEAK NOW era, but got detached to taylor for a long time after that, but again I came back in the 1989 era, and here I am crying over SPEAK NOW, man the charm SPEAK NOW has that can't be replicated in any of the albums. Every one of the songs make me cry and open up the wounds.
Better Man is my favorite because of just how raw and honest it is. As someone who went through a similar situation of just wanting someone to be better, and knowing that it was better to leave than stay, it brings me to tears every time. It’s just one of those songs that is never a skip and just show how immensely talented Taylor is at capturing situations like this. 💜💜
omg yesss it’s so good and kinda underrateddd
SOMEETIMESS IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHTTT I CAN FEEL YOU AGAINNN
Speak now has always been my favorite album. It was the first concert I had ever been to and I remember being on my dads shoulders singing “Never Grow Up” and it was just such a special moment. This album will always have such a special place in my heart🩷
aww
I became a Swiftie 6 years ago. My favorite albums are 💖Lover💖and🌲evermore🌲I'm truly in ✧"Wonderland"✧ whenever I listen to ANY songs of Taylor. I'm so excited to listen to 💜Speak now.💜
My favorite song is Illicit Affairs. I love every second of it. During one of the darkest, loneliest time of my life, this was one of the few songs that my heart could hear. I used to replay the first 15 seconds over and over because of how lovely it sounds. The gentle string plucking and whimsical whispery vocals always soothed my racing anxiety. The lyrics would wrap gauze over my wounds. I could relate to every aspect of the song from making yourself hidden (“hood over your head, keep your eyes down”) to frustration building and the feeling of everything falling apart (“look at this godforsaken mess that you made me, you showed me colors you know I can’t see with anyone else”). Illicit Affairs actually feels like a “secret language I can’t speak with anyone else” to me. It pulls me out of the whirlpool of overthinking and into a place where I can see more clearly. Illicit Affairs is truthful, nurturing, painful, and accepting. From the guitar plucking and whispers to the cathartic strumming and holding back from screaming the words, Illicit Affairs guides me through the midnight forest and into the light of the spring.

My favorite Taylor song is constantly changing for many reasons, the power that this woman has to create so many songs that are catchy, emotional and absolute bops, but at the current moment my fave is Snow on the Beach ft more Lana del Rey, it just sounds so melodic, something that could play in my wildest dreams, and Lana, God, that women, she litteraly made me ascend to heaven, and it actually is a very good metaphor to love to snow, because it's true, love is weird yet it's beautiful!
I’m a MOM of a young woman who’s the same age as Taylor. She made me a fan. I’m a former English teacher, and I always say Taylor is a born poet of our time. She is amazing.
My favorite Taylor song, since the day it was released, is august. It’s literally the sound of late summer, the production is some of Jack’s best, and the writing is so pretty.
My favorite Taylor Swift song is actually Dear John . After literally all of these years it still hits just as hard every single time , and I am going to lose my ever loving mind when TV comes out ❤

As a new Swiftie this is so amazing and helpful to watch! I love learning all the backstories to her songs. It’s insane how much there is to learn! Also I just found out yesterday she’s is coming to my home country for the first time 🇵🇱❤️
I’m so lucky to be a lifelong swiftie right now 😭😭 my all time fav taylor song is back to december, i remember listening to this song as a little kid and loving it and being so confused why someone would leave someone they love so much, but a couple years ago i was in the same situation. this song is so meaningful because it shows how you can grow up with taylor, and how she can really be your big sister.
haunted(acoustic version) is my favorite song! anything acoustic that blondie does is incredible!! when she pleads “i know” over and over i get chills, its a song i can scream cry to. speak now will forever and always be my favorite era! thank you ally for always giving us a space💜💜
My favorite taylor swift song is EASILY Enchanted. When I was 10, both me and one of my childhood best friends moved (across the country to completely opposite sides) at the same time. I was, of course, sad, but because we were mainly friends when we were little, I kinda forgot about him. But one day, THREE years later, my mom told me he was going to have a major surgery and that his mom had a blog documenting it all. And that blog helped me rediscovered this boy who I used to know so well. Every day, I checked the blog looking for an update on his situation. I learned a lot about him, and saw some pictures of what he looked like now. I fell in love (obviously not REAL love, but I was definitely intensely infatuated). It made me realize how much I missed him and wanted to see him again. I discovered the song Enchanted around this time (before it blew up on tiktok and now everyone loves it), but that song really reeeeally spoke to me. Because it was about the overwhelming desire to see someone again, and since you don’t actually know anything about them, you hope they aren’t in love. It’s about the whimsical and almost irrational feeling of falling in love in a split second, and making it a central theme/important moment in your life. And that was EXACTLY how I felt. I wanted, more than ANYTHING in the ENTIRE WORLD to see him again. I wanted to love him again. But over the course of the next few years, neither him or I traveled close to where the other person lived, and so I never got to see him. It’s been 6 years since I discovered Enchanted, and it isn’t any less special to me now than it was then. I get so emotional and almost cry every time I listen to it. And guess what! FINALLY, after nearly 8 years of not even speaking to this boy, I get to see him again NEXT WEEK!!! I’m finally visiting him and his family and I could not be more excited. I’m so grateful for the song Enchanted because It’s carried me through this fantasy for so long. Thank you taylor swift 🫶

oh my goodness what a story!!! please update me with what happens next week
Ahh that was so sweet!! Yasss please let us know how it goes!!
@@AllySheehan I absolutely will!!!!
@@AllySheehanupdate: okay so ive been here at his house for the past couple of days and it’s been SOOOO incredibly amazing!!! he’s the sweetest guy in the whole world and really accomplished with everything he does. can’t wait to get to know him better, i’ll hopefully know him for a long time!!
@@AllySheehan oh also-i gave him my number yesterday!!! i’m hoping to keep in contact with him and maybe over time, something will happen between us ☺️
my favorite taylor swift song at the moment is “i’m only me when i’m with you” because it reminds me of a few friendships that i have and how natural they’ve felt ‘cause we shouldn’t have to change when we have something real! i loooooove it💚💚💚
i became a swiftie during 1989 but my favorite song switches quite often, depending on my mood. it’s hard to pick one! i’d say currently “hits different” has me in a chokehold. i absolutely love the boppy melody juxtaposed with the depressing lyricism. and the little vocal run she does during the verse is so addicting to listen to. the bridge cuts into my very soul. i cannot get enough. so good! always love your videos, and this one was superb. absolutely cannot wait to listen to speak now (taylor’s version)!
I’m actually still a baby swiftie (2021!) so I’m so glad that you’ve made this video to explain everything that’s been happening in 2010! I’ve been surrounded by Taylor fans for a while and I never really got the hype, so one day I asked my best friend to make a playlist for me to introduce me to Taylor’s music and she was like „IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS FOR SO LONG!!” and an hour later I had a playlist made for me with an explanation for every song. (Also the fact that she named the playlist „blondiefication”… her mind). The songs that initially hooked me the most from her playlist were Death By A Thousand Cuts and Haunted, so I guess they’re the songs that made me a swiftie BUT after a while a song that wasn’t even included in the playlist became my favourite and it’s… Holy Ground. I don’t know what kind of drug did she put in this song, but whenever I hear it I get +100 to my mood. When I play this song I immediately want to jump around my bedroom and scream the lyrics and let the neighbours know how happy I am. And even though I’m dancing in my bedroom I think that „I don't wanna dance if I'm not dancing with you” (whoever my crush is at the moment). Also, one oddly specific thing - the way she sings the word „lose” in the stolen version? Chills down my spine!!

I had 2 best friends at different times of my childhood that introduced debut and fearless to me and I was in denial because she was such a woman and I sheltered the feminine parts of me. Eventually I gave in and she helps me embrace every side of me that I was afraid to show. She is mother now and I’ve seen her twice in concert and I will always go see her again.
‘Mine’ was my favourite Taylor Swift song as a child and even now after many years, it still is. I remember stumbling across the music video when I was about 10 and being mesmerized by the story she was telling. And when I re-listened to it last year, I cried because I now deeply related to the lyrics.
‘You learn my secrets and you figure out why I’m guarded’ ‘braced myself for the goodbye, cause that’s all I’ve ever known, but you took me by surprise, you said ‘I’ll never leave you alone’’
I didn’t really understand those words as a child but lord knows I do now. Even though the song hits hard for me, it’s become very healing and reassuring because in the end it works out. ‘Dear John’ is also a recent favourite of mine due to it applying almost perfectly to a pretty traumatic friendship break up I went through last July (not so funnily enough). I can’t wait for Taylor’s version’s of both the songs!
“August” is the song that sent me over the edge when it came out! I had just moved to a new place and it defined my life during that time. It really solidified me as a whole fan after being a casual fan for so long. Love your channel so much and it’s an honor to be in this fandom w u all!!
Omg Ally can u pls do the same for all her albums 🥹 like a swiftory behind each album?! You gave me so much info and tea in this and I wanted to find a similar vid for fearless and red re-records but… I couldn’t :( LOVE ur reac vids but yeah if we can get this kind of deep dive for what’s behind every song/swiftory for every album - it would be amazing , iconic and legendary!! Xxx
I’m literally crying. Speak Now is my favourite album and have always wanted to have the wonderstruck perfume. My favourite song is Enchanted and it has been since I first found Taylor. The first song I ever heard was Enchanted and it has stuck with me throughout the years. I always have a person or feeling I can relate to Enchanted and the song gives me 5 minutes of emotion. As a young swiftie I would love to start my collection of Taylor’s cd’s and share my love of Taylor with others.💜💜💜
1-hour video about speak now..best way to spend a friday evening 💜💜💜
Speak Now held my hand through some of the darkest years of my entire life. I honestly don't know where I'd be without Taylor. I first heard her singing Fifteen live on some XM-radio station before Debut came out. I loved her instantly! I told everyone I knew about this new girl I heard on the radio and I will never to be able to explain the excitement I felt when I heard Debut for the first time. I showed everyone while screaming "this is her! This is the girl I've been talking about!" My brother and I have been Swifties ever since. I'm 38 now and he's 33. We've been pointing at her picture telling everyone her name both before and after we had kids. Swifties for life 💖
Long live is my favorite song just because it is so sweet and its a letter to her fans. Also the part where it goes "tell me how the crowds went wild" I just love how its like seperated between each word. Its just an amazing song. Long live was also the first song i ever heard from speak now and speak now has become my favorite album. Unfortunatly i was just a small child when the album came out though so I never got to experience it so I am very excited for the rerelease. 💜💜💜
My favorite Taylor song of all time is The Lucky One. “Why?” You might ask, well here’s why:
Number 1: the overall message. Overlooking the boy this song is about, this song is all about someone in the spotlight realizing how much the spotlight will effect their life. She realizes that her life will not ever be private because of her career. I also love how she grows throughout the song. She talks about how people who become famous often end up hiding to protect themselves, but then she realizes why they do this because of the constant spotlight. (This is also crazy to me because she ends up going into hiding eventually to protect herself so this whole song was like foreshadowing her later life)
Number 2: the “hidden” message. The hidden message for this song was “Wouldn’t you like to know” and as a swifite, YES! I would like to know! But Taylor knows that she is trying her hardest to keep her life so private. But putting aside wanting her to feel safe in her relationships, I would LOVE to know every detail about her life (even though I value her privacy and would never want Tay to feel threatened)
Aaannnndd number 3: just a fun little extra detail, but this song is the 13th track and we all know how amazing the number 13 is, and how special this number is to Miss Tay Tay.

Thank you for this video!!! Im a massive paramore fan, so seeing their support for Speak Now TV made me wanna listen to her music and WOW im definitely having such a crazy good time listening to her music!!! And i love finding more out about the “lore” of an artist and their art 🥰
I can't get over the story of enchanted and who Taylor wrote it for ..makes me so giddy ❤
it's just the sweetest story isn't it!!
That's so cute!! 💖 like the reply song, c'mon freaking adorable 🥰😭✋️
My favorite song currently is Out of the Woods. The fact that Taylor was able to take such a stressful and painful time and put it into a song that is the definition of a masterpiece. The song as a whole invokes a memory that was a hidden and a time that was forgotten.
Hi! I just started watching your videos and I'm a fan! I've been a casual fan since Speak Now, but the album that cemented me as a hardcore Swiftie was Folklore which is still my top favorite album!
Also the fact that "Mine" was used in sapphic context on Glee makes me SO VERY HAPPY.
my favorite song that tears me up every time i hear it is marjorie. it’s so significant for me because of my connection with my gramma, and having every scrap of her taken from me as a result of dementia. when evermore was released, i was living with my gramma to take care of her because she was so suddenly and severely affected by her memory loss that she couldn’t live alone anymore. when i heard the lyrics, "if i didn't know better, i'd think you were talking / listening / singing to me now," i thought about the painful reality that my gramma was physically present, yet mentally distant. this is different from taylor’s experience but also parallels both our desperate longing J̲ust to be able to talk with our grandmothers again, despite the circumstances that prevent it.
and of course the bridge hits the hardest, with the “A̲utumn chill that wakes me up” reminding me of the cold wyoming air that would fill her house since she always slept with the windows open. and she truly did love the amber skies so much, eagerly waiting until suN̲set every day to pull back the curtains and look out her kitchen window; perpetually fascinated by how the scene in front of her was different from yesterdays. always commenting on the intricacies of the cloud wisps to the hues of pI̲nk and orange, she really knew how to appreciate the little things that made life beautiful for her. somehow taylor is able to evoke all of these memories and emotions from me in just S̲even words.
there’s no way i could ever describe all the ways that this song and evermore as a whole mean so much to me, but in the end it’s a poignant reminder of the precious connection and love i share with my gramma, reminding me to cherish the memories we made when we still could. yet i will always grieve the loss of the vibrant, engaging person she used to be, especially while living with the complex and contradictory reality that i know better, but she’s still around.

edit: i forgot to mention that gramma would always save magazine and newspaper clippings with taylor swift for me any time she saw them because she knew how much of a fan i am, even back in 2008 :) love you gramma
My heart is throbbing, thank you for sharing this 🩷 I hope Janis knows how much she is loved, even if she forgets everything else.
As a new Swiftie I wanted to thank you. I've only recently fallen in love with taylor's incredible writing and storytelling and ever since I've been trying to understand more of her story and the context behind lots of songs and lyrics but it hasn't been that easy. Your videos have the exact amount of depth of analysis that i'm lookin for to appreciate taylor even more. (i loved how you analysed would've could've should've as it was a poem in english literature).
That being said I'm in a process of discovering, so my favourite song changes constantly (it also depends on what i'm going through). At the moment it has to be Happiness, from evermore. I'm not very good at expressing myself or my feelings (another reason why I love taylor so much) so it's difficoult for me to explain how that song makes me feel. It's both a gut feeling created by the melody and Taylor's wonderful vocals and appreciation for the theme and the words used. Starting peaceful and calm and building up to convey grief, sadness, anger and at last aceptance. It's a journey charged with such strong emotions that touch me on such a deep level I don't even understand why. Lately i've found myself listening to it on repeat multiple times allowing me to exit my world and focus on these emotions.
Other than that english is my second language and I especially admire how taylor uses words, she makes me fall in love with the english language more than I already am.
This is my instagram to enter the giveaway @mstlsn
I loved a lot of her singles from Fearless, but Speak Now is what MADE ME A FAN. It was her first album I tore through start to finish, and loved every song. Comparing it to theater kid energy makes so much sense lmfao. I adore this album and I am so beyond ready for this re-release T_T
This album means so much to me, so i could never pick a favourite song. But still, I remember being 16 and listening to Last Kiss over and over again, not because i could relate to it, but because it captured feelings of loss, love, tranquility and just being in a moment. It helped me to overcome my anxiety at the time and inspired me to make art or write fanfictions (yeah).
I'm beyond excitement about the re-recording of Speak Now and can't wait to listen to it as I've grown up, so has Taylor💜
I’ve been a swiftie since our song, fearless is so nostalgic to me as it reminds me of my teenage years as does red - I think my favourite song (I really can’t choose but if I had to) would have to be all too well - I saw it as the masterpiece it is from the second I heard it and it’s been a part of so many eras of my life from school to university and into adulthood. It’s so perfect and will always always be one of her best in every way! ♥️
all too well is just top tier. it’s my all time favorite, it has sadness, wisdom, maturity, anger, sarcasm, it acknowledges that you can understand and know so many things but you can’t fully internalize them because you can’t forget feelings. the lyrics are poetry, and genius. it’s a masterpiece. it is honest it is rare. something about it feels like home somehow.
I'm so excited for this re-release and the vault tracks! I'm 30, and I've been a fan of Taylor since her first album, which came out when I was in middle school. It's really special because it feels like I've grown up with her, and every album correlates with things I was also going through at the time in my personal life
Speak Now was the album for me that really got me obsessed with Taylor. It’s so special to me and I literally cannot wait until July!! I remember getting Wonderstuck for Christmas way back when and I’m so sad I didn’t hold on to the empty bottle 😂
For me, Love Story was the first song I heard of Taylor’s and remains my all time favourite. It may be basic but I can’t help but still get emotional every time I hear it, it has such a hold over me 💜💛
Love Story is mine, too. The first time I heard of her was when she did that on Ellen. I'm severely empathetic and romantic and it took a very long time for me to be able to sing along without crying at the "spoke to your dad go pick out a white dress..." part.
love story isnt my favorite song but I wanted to compliment you by saying I’m happy people aren’t afraid to say such popular songs are their favorites because some people think that is being a “noob” but if you know many of her other songs I don’t think there is anything wrong with your favorite song being a hit
@@SlayPlus Thanks! It's not my all-time favorite, but it's the first time that I ever saw or heard of her back when she was promoting Fearless and I was immediately hooked :) It holds a special place for me.
I'm old enough to not care what someone thinks of my favorite songs, anyway. #teamnochill I don't understand the hate that ME! gets. She wrote it for little kids and it's a happy song and she was so happy making it, so it makes me happy. I think that people who hate on her more fun simple lyric songs are bringing the same vibe as JG making her feel like her songs weren't cool enough.
My only skip is Ronan because it's too emotionally hard to listen to. I've got two kids under the age of 10 and I can't let my mind go there. I've listened to it all the way through only once.
@@F1Swiftie totally understand ronan! people need to just have fun and not take very thing so seriously with taylor songs
I am 51 & just became a huge fan a few months ago when my cousin (a Swiftie from forever) invited me to go to the Eras concert in March. I have signed on 100% & cannot stop -full stop - consuming EVERYTHING Taylor. She is pure & simple everything that is right in humanity. I’m OCD obsessed with her bc she’s THAT amazing! Ok maybe there’s something wrong with me
watching this in preparation for Speak Now TV tonight!!! 💜 even though i too am a swiftie, i'm always blown away by your taylor knowledge, ally 😭
I am SOOOO HAPPY to finally find someone who appreciate this masterpiece as much as I do 💜 Mine was the first video of her I've watched so I truly am emotionally atached to that song. It was at Speak Now era that I became a swiftie so this album is really special to me. I hope she plays Long Live in Brasil's shows 💜
Eu tô amando encontrar hoje as Speak Now girlies que eu não tive qdo conheci a Taylor 😍 Tb conheci ela nessa época mas meu primeiro vídeo foi Mean hehe 💜
E simmmmm!!!! Torcendo demais pra ela cantar Long Live aqui 🙏🏻
i cannot process that we're about to hear that "ah-ah-ah-ah-ah" intro of mine in just 20 days💜💜💜
Oh my gosh my eyes teared up when you showed the two times she announced Speak Now - she’s come so far and I know I don’t know her personally but I’m so proud of her and I’m so proud to be a fan 💜
I am a new swiftie but my sister is a long term fan!! I’m so exited to be part of this amazing community 💜💜 this era is an amazing time to join and I love Taylor so much!! I’m learning to play her songs on my guitar and I love your videos so much! They really helped me join this community and understand all the things that are Taylor! She is and amazing role model and so are you! Stay safe to whoever is reading this and please “just be yourself, there is no one better” -ts herself 💜💜💜💜💜
It's so hard to pick a favorite, but Our Song is the BOP of my childhood, and one of my all time favorites is Back to December!! So beautifully written, I'm always in awe of the way she's able to convey such specific feelings so poignantly.
I’ve been a Taylor fan my whole life but I never know the stories behind my favorite songs it’s so interesting and I’m so glad I know this before I go to the concert it kinda gives the songs a whole new meaning to me!!!thank you sm 💜
this is amazing and perfect for me and my brother to start getting into her! so thank you so fckin much!
maybe if you think you can and want to, then maybeee you can do this for all her albums? start with the re-recordings that are already out. Me and my homie are now listing fearless and gonna watch the tourfilm next week. but from the og songs en video’s till the vault tracks, there is so much information we r missing. And if there was one able to make a video with the right information, it would be you my friend.
but thanks again! greetings from the netherlands! :)
cardigan is most indefinitely my favorite Taylor song because it can be used in the term of being cheated on or a best friend or friend stabbing you in the back and then either way trying to come back to you and pretend everything is/will be ok. It is also a beautiful song that has a mixture of emotions behind it. Overall I love the song soooo much and could listen to it on repeat for hours.
i don't think i'd be able to pick a favorite song from her entire discography, but one that always hits hard is marjorie!! the chorus especially always resonates with me, as i find many small things around me that remind me of my own late grandmother, so it's always a nice reminder that "what died didn't stay dead". overall just to listen to tho, i LOVE ready for it. i wasn't the hugest fan of rep originally, but it's grown on me and now this is one of my go-to hype songs :^)
It is literally impossible to pick a favorite song but clean has got to be in at least one of my top three. This song, in some way, is just so reassuring to me to be able to say even after every thing you can still brush yourself off, stand up and be “clean”. Also, yelling “and the sky turned black like a perfect storm” never gets old.
I'm so happy that Ally has gotten over 70,000! Unfortunately, I don't have Instagram, but it's a personal choice... Anyway, I thought I should share my favorite Taylor Swift song is my tears ricochet because I was able to relate to it, quite personally. I no longer relate to it, but it's also one of her best-written songs, and the production always moves me to tears... I love how cinematic it feels. I could dissect every line and what it means to me, but... I won't bore anybody. Anyway... Congrats to Ally, lovely to see her get this kind of success, and how sweet to do a giveaway! 😊
love your videos!! favorite lyric is "if the story is over then why am i still writing pages". ive struggled a lot with time slipping away everyone moving on but im till stuck in the same place with a lot left to say.
i was singing along to picture to burn at age 3 and have loved taylor ever since!as an ‘04 baby whose favorite album is speak now i am so thankful for this video, ally! i’m a diehard swiftie but there’s obviously so much i missed being so young at the time of the speak now release! can’t wait for her version 🫶🏻🫶🏻
As a fellow melbourne girl, Long Live is THE surprise song I've been hoping, dreaming, dying to keep for our show! It's also the one I'm most nervous to hear on SN(TV) because I'm so attached to young Taylor's vocals singing those lyrics, I can't imagine the rerecorded version having the same effect on me. (Side note - 7/7 is my birthday, so this is like taylor's present to me!)
ty so much for the informations, i joined the fandom back in 2019 when lover came out, can't wait for listen again to this masterpiece!
