The irony of someone trying to pick apart the lyric ‘I’m just too soft for all of it’ is that’s probably the best line in the whole song. It’s beautifully candid and it genuinely contributes to the Midnights narrative in helping unpack Taylor’s headspace, especially regarding her celebrity. While I love the song Sweet Nothing, I think without that line, it wouldn’t deserve a spot on the standard edition of Midnights.
If we are flexing though, my prized possession is a signed ticket from when she was still opening for other country artists. My parents also got a signed picture and she complimented my moms new cowgirl boots. She was sitting at a cute little table to the side with her country artist of the year award or something and my mom thought she was adorable ❤
This is my second time around rewatching this and I still can't get over the idea of singing along WITH TAYLOR'S MOTHERRRRR. My brain cannot comprehend it.
zach i've had a medical scare on friday and am meant to be on 90% bedrest for the next few days, so thank you for distracting me for an hour and a half, it took my mind off my body. like i actually enjoyed it which i havent enjoyed much in the past couple days. so thanks
Unfortunately missed watching this live, but it so much fun to watch back! You are so entertaining and interesting, it’s gonna take your channel a long way. As always, loved the video and so happy we got to see part of your ME! reaction after all this time. Sending positive vibes x
The Twitter commentary was fun. Good that you removed handles so no one goes and targets those people, but you were still able to be honest. Tbh I’d love a whole video of unpacking unhinged Swiftie takes.
yess I want to do this especially w TikTok but like you mentioned I don't wanna harass people so I'll have to think of a way to accomplish this without doing that
I literally died when I saw that reaction! It look like your brain was trying so hard to process that she sang something so childish. Also Meredith seriously pass the vibe check and didn’t failed in her service as a mod!
I’m dying over all the haters in the live comments who don’t get your (amazing) sense of humor and cannot take a joke 💀 hilarious - well done on your first live, I enjoyed it!
Zach I'm looking for the Taylor interview you said was one of your favorites, and now I'm going crazy trying to find it, thought it was on this video but I can't find it for the life of me!!!!!!!
Welp after seeing your reaction to the spelling is fun line like five times I think you deserve to know my toxic trait is that I think she should’ve kept that line in the song, it’s ok I’ll laugh up at you all from hell. With love xoxo ❤
@@jasminsimoneerhart9023 yes it is still in the music video! I feel like it’s missing from the song when I hear it on spotify though. Thank you for the validation, I’m glad we can be toxic together 😅💋
Low key girl at home is under rated. Also I wish I could’ve been there for the stream in real time it looked fun. But it would’ve been at 4am for me. I am a Swifty but I’m not that much of an insomniac.😅
Wish I could've seen this live but I was busy today 😔 But youre reaction to that line in me! Was so funny you could tell you were just so confused and wierded out 😂
The merch has been SO disappointing to me. I'm all worked up about it. And the fact that almost none of it initially sold out speaks volumes. (A bunch sold out this week but I'm 99.9999% sure it's because in a desperate bid for a pre-sale code a bunch of people went on the site and bought items to see if a code ended up in their email.) The merch is all so dark and grainy. The font choices?! The shirts with just 3 words of text and nothing else?! The photos?! The colors?! UGH. I hate. I was/am still expecting vibes more like the blue romper with stars on it that she wore. Where's THAT merch?! Also WHY is there a $40 candle?!? Are we suddenly all bougie rich chicks? I LOVE candles but I've never paid that much for a little column candle in my life. The only item I kinda want is the vinyl coasters. But I was waiting for an actual merch drop so I could combo the shipping. 😆
I have wanted merch from her since 1989. And there has not been ONE SINGLE THING I wanted to purchase throughout all these years. She has to know how many of us complain about how bad the merch is, how has she not hired a new creative team?? They even choose the weirdest lyrics sometimes to put on sweatshirts and things, and on top of that they place the words and phrases on the strangest parts of the body. I also don't understand the randomness of what she chooses to sell when it comes to things other than apparel. I would love to be a fly on the wall during these meetings. And Jesus... the pricing! I'm actually glad I hate the merch because I am poor. So even if I found something I wanted I wouldn't be able to afford it.
"I'm too old to listen to like, new teen pop." ‼️ I feel the saaaaaaame. I am 36 and idk these people or their music, nor do I want to. I've been rick rolled by me-he-hee vids 😂 Song sorter is impossible at times! This video was great, sorry I missed it live! 🐍❤
Same! I'm 37. That's also why I didn't listen to Taylor when she first came out. I was a senior in college. I couldn't relate to most of her early stuff, didn't start listening to her until 1989. Even after eventually giving those albums a chance there's only a handful of songs I've taken away from them.
@@0485dlp I was also a late in life Swiftie. I didn't start until technically the re-records. I heard Fearless TV was coming out and I had stumbled across some YT reactions to Taylor (not the big hits) and wanted to hear more so I bought Folklore, Evermore, and Lover as those were her only owned albums at the time. I downloaded the rest of her discography because I needed to hear everything and the rest is history! It's been a journey to listen to everything and truly fathom it all 💖 Midnights was my 1st real album release experience - what a crazy, sleepless ride!
So bummed I couldn't make the live stream! It was 6am my time and my ass couldn't get up... lol BUT I have been meaning to ask if you are a housewives fan, because I've heard you and Madeline make some random references on Evolution! I am also a huge housewives fan (and just Bravo in general). Went to Bravocon this year and it was.... something! Anyway, would love love love some housewives content/analysis from you. You're the best, Zack! (Btw, are you "Zack" or "Zach"?)
Molly I LOVE the housewives and I'm so jealous you went to Bravocon!!! I would love to talk about the housewives but it seems our audience is generally NOT interested in housewives lol from the polls we've taken
@@theswiftologist The people don't know what they are missing!! I'll just have to PM ya to chat about the HW's then haha Have you watched all of the franchises or a select handful? I've watched RHOBH (twice), RHONY (twice), RHONJ, RHOSLC, RHOD, and am on season 3 of RHOA... Next up is will Potomac as I've heard really good things! Also love Vanderpump Rules and Below Deck
i'm sorry but this entire stream had me cackling from start to finish, from your funny takes to the fans hating to the random person saying you look older than 48 LMAO
In my Taylor patrolling the grounds of her Rhode Island house with a water gun era (the house being the church of Swiftology and the water gun being the block button) 💅🏻
I don't understand Getaway Car. I might be dumb, but why did she need Tom to get away from Calvin? In her jet plane? In Brasil only poor woman need getaway cars. Help
@@theswiftologist yes. However, even metaphorically, I guess I don't understand how Tom was necessary. I suppose maybe Taylor found it hard to just break up with the dj, who knows
I love that you have blown out RED tour videos just like me. It makes me feel better about my terrible videos. I tried to bring my pro camera and they were like, that's not allowed. I didn't know! I know now. For Eras Tour, I brought the best quality point and shoot camera I could buy that met the Arrowhead requirements! I know Everything is Changed is not your favorite song but I love it so I recorded the whole video, lol. I was way back so B stage was my filming time, lol.
Our surprise song on the RED tour was Mean. I'm told Hey Stephen also happened. I literally can't remember, which is terrible. But I remember Taylor was basically like, this is the Midwest so we are doing a banjo song, lol. So it really stuck in my head.
I am also very glad that you don’t like closure. That song has never grown on me, and it hurts my ears to listen to it. I hate to sound like it. I don’t love her, but I can be critical and I just don’t like that song. Thank you :-)
That's so painful to watch. You really tried to like the song and tried to vibe with it but this part just killed every chance that you'd ever love it. I personally played Me a million times on repeat and love how cheesy it is but I guess I'm just lucky that I always like whatever songs she chooses as singles. It would definitely ruin my excitement a bit if I hated the singles.
Watching you roast my faves is giving me a degradation k!nk just maybe. I’d watch an entire video of you roasting popular/unpopular opinions is that smt you’ve done before I can’t remember. Edit: fact checked and it seems like not and I think the fandom deserves to get personally victimized so like, I’m putting my idea in the suggestion box.
Even if the ME reaction is short it was still worth it to see the pure look of terror in your eyes that this was the first taste of the album.
I want more too!!! I hate that song!
Time stamp?

While I love the song Sweet Nothing, I think without that line, it wouldn’t deserve a spot on the standard edition of Midnights.
I feel the same way! On my first listen, that line (and the delivery) was what really 'made' the song for me
Agree
yeah, after the twister tongue bridge, that simple, beautiful line is so perfect
“I dragged Taylor head first fearless” lol you’re so funny ily
If we are flexing though, my prized possession is a signed ticket from when she was still opening for other country artists. My parents also got a signed picture and she complimented my moms new cowgirl boots.

You should definitely do more lives roasting stupid tweets, i loved it but i wish there were moreeee
coming up sewn
this was hilarious and i truly can't wait for the merch roast bc i personally have THOUGHTS on the folklore cardigan hype. keep it up!!

This was fun, would love to see more lives and this time worked great for me 😊
Thanks for coming queen Elena
Me! was my surprise song and was so funny, truly amazing!! I have an emotional attachment to it now
Your reaction clip is everything! 😂

when people told you to stop dragging taylor i didnt know they meant it so literally
I’d love to see you interview your parents!!!
Loved the shoutout to Kim Foster! She is absolutely incredible. So much respect for her.
Wish I could've seen this live but I was busy today 😔
But youre reaction to that line in me! Was so funny you could tell you were just so confused and wierded out 😂
