- Taylor Swift released a music video for her new song "Willow," the lead single off her surprise ninth studio album, "Evermore," which she's described as the "sister album" to her critically acclaimed eighth album, "Folklore." The magical music video is full of Easter eggs and references to "Folklore," including the songs "Exile," "Mirrorball," "Seven," and "Mad Woman." The video for "Willow" also references songs from other eras like "Reputation" and "Lover," and possibly hints at her relationship with longtime boyfriend Joe Alwyn.

@@irenekim9344 and we're grateful about it! It's her birthday today.. 😭

kanye doesn't understand that everytime Taylor releases an album, she just slaps him
this comment made me laugh so hard, thank you for that 😭
Agree lol
Never give him peace
or every time she releases an album kanye gets free promo: now thing about it
@@BlondynCh kanye gives himself plenty of free promo with his ridiculous views and actions
Taylor Swift is not just writing a song, she's creating a piece of art work that will embed in the entire history of music. She's one of few those artists who writes a song in most sophisticated and highest form of writing. Lastly, she's one of those few artists, who's not afraid take or try other genres. She really love exploring, discovering, and she's very devoted on her work, that's why "TAYLOR SWIFT IS THE MUSIC INDUSTRY".
Truee I hope pple will start giving her the recognition she deserved she is a living legend 👏
@Egon Pax oh please then tell me what your definition of a good artist and songwriter is. seriously. you think you’re some kind of smart critic? Name the traits of a good song, and watch taylor display all those traits. 🥰👍🏽
@@afrida842 nlggas in Paris by Kanye West is better than anything Taylor Swift has made and ever will make
@@jerainyparra2533 listen to Kanye if u want to hear some REAL art, poetry, professional music, metaphors, and masterpieces. Don't base your opinion on Kanye on empty reasons to hate him.
@@Nestrick_ At least bring a better comeback.
I will never understand how taylor and “yummy” are nominated for the same award at the Grammys.
yeah, that makes me upset. taylor is over here writing masterpieces, while justin needed 5 people to help him write "yummy"
@@alexawatchingyoutube Exactly, and half the lyrics are "yummy yummy yummy yummy"
yea you got that YummY,YuMmY,YummY,yUmmY,YumMy,Yummy..yEah You got That yuMmy YummEy yumMey YumMy YuMmy Yummy
mhh,great song (?)
seriously tho😭😭😭
Fr he can't write songs for shit all he can say is yummy yummy tummy bunny like boi what else cause I can't listen yuh you got that yummy, yuh you goT ThaT yummy, yuH YoU goT ThaT yummY🙂
She walks OUT OF THE WOODS into a private life where she is IN THE CLEAR from her fame.
Ahhhhhhhhhhhh
n words in paris
Yassss
Nice 👍
SHE STEPPED INTO THE DAYLIGHT AND LET IT GOOOOOOO
Insider is doing a great job with the dissection of the music video.
Thank you so much for watching!!!
Yesss
Agreed!
the dissection of the frog-
@@bloomingrat1634 I-
She didn't just create an album, she's created an entire story in which each of her songs/albums tie perfectly to each other despite the numerous genres she's explored. Truly the best writer alive I'd say
Yeah I’m exited to see western artist pick up this concept. I’ve only ever seen this done with most artists in the East.
In the future, when ppl are gonna study history of music, there's gonna be Taylor's name as best artist of 21st century..like we art students studied about great artists from 15th to 20th century..I believe she will make the history
she is already making history
*one of the best
The ending also references Daylight from lover.
YES!!!
YES omg ♥️
Yes WOOOWW
I was looking for this!
yes
This is why Taylor is a song writing genius
Agree
the tent scene is also in everything has changed mv!
omg YES
I think she learned with Ed S. that love after fame is possible and she could have it too just like he did. ➕ they all said they had a fling and became friends afterwards...so many options of what this could mean.
@@criso2817 yah...
@@criso2817 Amazing Fact:Taylor swift plan the date of ed shareen and his wife.
THATS WHAT I WAS THINKING OF!!! I knew I recognized it but I couldn’t quite put my finger on what it was...
Admit it Swifties....
We were waiting for Insider to release this video...
Omg yes I can't understand the video this better😭
omg we're so honored♥️
So true... Can't trust any other channel for Easter eggs!!
yes
I’m so grateful I always wanted to know if she had finally found someone and you just spelled it out for me hope things go well with them forevermore 😂🥰
also, the scene where she's trapped in the box is a reference to another lyric: 'and I fell from the pedestal/ right down the rabbit hole' - from long story short. Also, the 'rabbit hole' lyric is another reference to Wonderland from 1989.
The narrator is a big SWIFTIE :D
hehe you know it😘
@@irenekim9344 I love all of your works.
I knew you were Asian by the voice of yours. ❤️😍
@@naungthaw Is she possibly also a Vietnamese fellow?
Plot twist: Taylor is just teasing her re-recording of Red with evermore, and evermore is just another Easter egg
Yeah also true
Skip to 6 months later, Red(Taylor's version) has been announced 😏
didn't know we would meet here, but here we are
Now tell me the lottery numbers
@@andrearamon1729 lol
Other artists just put out random music videos of them partying at a club or half-naked while Taylor chooses to make a music video with subliminal meaningful references and announcements
Finnaly someone who admits it
Thats why she is the best.Her songs have meaning and depth.Not just another artist singing a bunch of immature lyrics.
That description of 'other artist' is a direct shade to Calvin Harris even though you didn't intend it and I kinda like that
That's the reason she was artist of the decade
She said it herself. She can't make songs like "I go to a club and dance dance dance" storytelling runs in her blood.
Taylor Swift is the artist of the century.
No other comes close!
dont ya mean artist of the eternity? lol
don't you mean artist of the frickin UNIVERSE????
I couldn't agree more.
Lol
Based on this storyline and breakdown I would say the ending line “I could never give you peace” is more like her admitting life with her will never be entirely peaceful because of her passion for music. She could never truly give that up, not even for a lover. She can go into hiding but the music never stops. She will have to come to the light to share it with the world from time to time.
She shocked us.. People do publicity stunt and stuff before the release of anything but she just announced to drop it just before a day
At this point I don't even know what kind of excellent mind Taylor has. She's just mind-blowng!
Anyone else getting "Mean" music video vibes from her dress / instrument / general aesthetic, in the scene where she's boxed in?
I believe that 6:07 is also an exile reference, the lyric video for exile looks like the bird's eye view of this shot.
It looks like the forest in exile lyric video
“You are not like the regulars
The masquerade revelers” from mirrorball?
Doesn’t that sound like the bonfire scene in willow?
Ahh, good call, totally agree!
Agreed
Agreed
"I can feel you sneaking in" can also be a reference to the lyric "back and forth from New York sneaking in your bed" from Daylight. Also "And I snuck in through the garden gate" in Cruel Summer.
& only hardcore fan can figure out all this...
we're definitely BIG fans ♥️
&...
Yet they literally said the title of a song without realizing it “here she walks out of the woods”
@@ashjustsneezed lol we can only fit so many references in!
She DOES come back stronger that a 90’s trend each time, slay queen 👑
The scene at 3:09 when she’s performing in the glass box, and then falls down a RABBIT HOLE coincides with her lyrics from “long story short” where she says “I fell from the pedestal right through the rabbit hole”
She then enters the ‘exile’ which for her was reputation (symbolised by he witches and the hoods) - she was in exile because she was prosecuted by the media
The fire orbs were actually Mirrorballs !
omg...her mind
OMGG!!
Exactly!
Haters can deny how talented she's
But they can't deny how genius she's
The glass box scene is the scene that represents how she feels about fame. Shut off from the world but always being watched.
this isn't just a song or an album. everything about her music is pure art. since the beginning. her lyrics, melodies, everything was so well put together. she is one of the women I will continue to admire and be inspired by.
Taylor always has easter eggs in her MV's. Every Swifty knows that. If it doesn't have any, it's very sus....
This is why I love insider
we love you 💗
she does nothing without a ton of thought behind it. I love her so much
The only artist's mv everyone will go crazy for is TAYLOR SWIFT!!!!🎉
Hey stranger reading comments.... May your day go well
Yours too
Thank you, wish you the same. 😊
My day just ended but thanks may yours then!!
Thank you. I hope your day goes well too.
thank you this made me smile for some reason😊may your day be beautiful too
The last scene also feels like "Step into the daylight and let it go" from Lover. :D
Among all the other wonderful things she is, she's amazing story writer, not just as a song writer but as director of her music videos.
Yes! Thank you for pointing that out.
The WHOLE ALBUM is so GOOD that I don't even have words to describe it's greatness 🥺♥️ It's a downright masterpiece and she was looking beyond beautiful and gorgeous in the Music Video😭🤭♥️ Her mind is out of this world 🤯🥺🥺♥️
THANK GOD We have Insider to Breakdown every Taylor Swift Music Videos!
Also she has the same expresion in delicate video, at the end, when she finds her special someone in that bar
with her being trapped in a circus, that could be tied back to getaway car "a circus ain't a love story" and how her relationship with joe is out of the public eye compared to other romances
She is a masterpiece and creates masterpieces
Yes, I agree with the song&season placements 100%!
I wanna add my own interpretation of the willow video that's touched upon at the end of this one. With cardigan, it largely reflected her career and relationship with music from her private times learning and growing a bond with music at home, to the success and adoration in the forest, to the darker times during reputation in the dark sea storm, and finally returning home to the comfort of her music once more away from the prying media.
I think willow tells a similar narrative, but more about her experiences in relationships and love rather than a huge focus on her career and relationship with music.
The reflection scene correlated with exile would be like her hearing about love and dreaming about finding it for herself as a young girl. She reaches out for it, wanting it for herself.
The scene in the tent correlated with seven would reflect first love and young love, back when they were sweet, innocent, and moving blindly in her relationships, before being scrutinized publicly.
Then the scene correlated with mirrorball is when she and her relationships are put on display. Her lover is on the other side of the glass bc she could never truly be with him the way she wanted, specifically with the public breathing down her back and judging her every move and every relationship decision. She couldn't be herself and she wasn't comfortable being on display, especially with something as delicate as love.
Then the "coven" scene that correlates to mad woman represents roughly around the time of the rep era like mentioned in the video, with the darker tones, sharper expressions, and hooded Taylor. This scene starts out with a combination of negative emotions, including anger, surrounding the media and external forces (e.g. Kim and Kanye). This is her move into isolation and anonymity, as she moves to blend in with the other anonymous figures. But as she begins to embrace the magic and recognizes the benefits of this isolation and move away from the public eye, she truly appreciates separating herself from the media. She's learned that she can hide her and her lover's relationship away to be more private, personal, and undercover, hence why her lover remains anonymous to us in this scene until the end when she continues following the string.
And at the end when she returns, she's finally found solace and happiness away from public scrutiny. It is only then that she can finally be truly united with her lover, bc this is how she loves best. She feels that she can finally be happy in his arms and have a normal, but an absolutely special relationship that consists of only the two of them, and no third-party viewers.
Anyway, that's my lengthy interpretation. It may not be accurate, but I think it fits in so well to the story that I'll continue to view this video this way. Thank you if you read this the whole way through 🤎🤍❤️
The best I've read so far! 👏
The male lead in 'Lover' MV was also one of her dancers in 1989 and Reputation
I find it really nice how she gives them this opportunity, because both of them looked very happy on social media that people are recognizing them
The ending secne when she walk through the door made me realize the daylight track she finally got to get out with her lover in daylight
Taylor's mind omg! Don't forget that the video is directed by her...
The joy of learning every simple references us EXACTLY why we love Taylor ❤️
You missed the end as a reference to Daylight. "I once thought love would be burning red but it's golden like daylight"
As she and her partner walk out into the golden daylight forest
God I cried watching this. So happy for her to be finally in peace with her lover
Also, at the ending, Taylor with her Lover finally see Daylight.
Maybe that’s the actual summer?
I love that insider does a video on Taylors Easter eggs everytime. ❤️
"One single thread of gold tied me to you" ... hummm 💍 am I the only one who thinks TS is now a happily married woman 👰?
she is engaged
@@BlondynCh WHAT?????
@@mudrashanbhag3829 not true lol
*People watching this like:*
-in bed
-not in a full screen
-reading comments
That is me!
how u so accurate
i’m doing a 500 piece puzzle though
bruh💀🤣
Im the opposite of it😁
She is so talented. I literally cry when i understand the meaning of the lyrics
Her album is so deep and meaningful! Hope she finds peace, love and joy!❤️
Also remember in the song "August" she said "and say meet me behind the mall" and in Willow she says "Wait for the signal and I'll meet you after dark". I don't know but they kind sound familiar! Anyways, I don't really know.
@@vutamokshitha5511 That makes sense too!
It's so amazing how all of her songs are connected❤
I was reading about her grandmother as a famous artist too. Taylor's lineage and having a partner that acts and write makes her so much more stronger. It shows that no one alone can make it this far. There is always a collective community.
The TAYLORVERSE is amazing to watch
The moment taylor and the co-actor got out of the room also represent “Daylight” right?
“I’ve been sleeping so long in my 20 year dark night.
And now I see daylight, I only see daylight”
You missed this: in the music video for Cardigan, you can see a picture of her grandfather to the left of the piano. Folklore's "epiphany" was written for him. For the same shot of the piano in willow, there's a picture of her grandmother instead. Evermore's "Marjorie" was written for her.
Also the teddy 🧸 is the tent is a reference to Seven
And it appears also in "everything has change" MV
Thank you so much for making this!!! ♡♡♡♡♡
I just wanna know: How the hell does she come up with all of this? Starting with "Fearless?" Is it all her, or does she have help? 😳
She writes most of her songs on her own, some of them are Co written.
The pond scene is Tim McGraw, Taylor Swift
The golden colours in the tent is fearless
The Ukulele scene is Speak now
His outfit is IKYW, Red
Down the rabbit hole, leaving behind country music, 1989
the dark witchy scenes OBVIOUSLY Reputation
Finding her lover, Lover
Stepping out together, Folklore
I was literally waiting for you guys to make an explanation video about this. Thank you so much.
And i think finding her lover in piano 🎹 room means that her lover is always their but she is finding him in different places 🤷🏼♀️😉
Taylor loves adding Easter eggs to her songs and music videos, there are no coincidences here
i also noticed that in the mad woman witches in the woods scene, she is hesitant at first to join in with them. i thought that was sort of a nod to her being hesitant to speak up for herself at first but ultimately finding she has power too when she lets it shine.
Your voice is so relaxing I could hear it all day
I find it comforting to know that these same three songs always struck me fiercely as songs that remind me of someone I care about... Delicate, Cruel Summer, - and this one... Willow - I didn't know they were linked or that all three were about the man she now loves and feels safe with and whom still has not wronged her or changed his mind, nor has she... these things give me hope. Not just that her journey has finally brought her to something real and lasting... but that such a thing as real, deeply intimate, lasting, and made of more, not less - does exist. That it is out there to be found and shared. It's so easy to lose hope.
You have the best explanations! Well done!
Thanks so much for breaking this down!
The python lady poster at the circus is reputation vibes (snake reference).
this is soooo good!!! thank you for making it!!
Ever since taylor start to sing a song of her, I really idolize her so so much speacially her ways of wroting a song.. She inspire many people across the globe and she's the most powerful woman I've ever know on the pass few years and because of that, jealousies and insecurities exist from her different co artist in music industry.. But she really want is to express her self to other and inspired them more in their lives like me and for that I'm always excite and energize to look forward for more inspired songs of her.. Long Live for a genuine heart like her I really love her so much.. She's "The Real Queen of All" Taylor Swift
A avid fan of yours since 2008

I love how you don't try to say it's EXACTLY that interpretation, though I think you hit the nail on the head!
This is good. They missed the last one though. They are walking into GOLDEN (like) DAYLIGHT.
Perfect Insider.👏👏👏
You jave decoded every easter egg in a best way.
Entire series in just 4min song...wow
This was a great decoding! Thanks!
OMG thank you Insider! I’m looking for this video the day Willow released! 🖤
Taylor is so advanced in writing music that her songs need to be decoded. What a wonderful experience to be alive in the same era as her and actually get to tell the grand kids someday about her.

This was a pleasantly well put together narrative exploration - so much applause.
Amazing video!
