the line about telling your kids her name literally makes me sob every time i hear it without fail
Yeah that's a heartbreaking line
@@nickforell1 yeah and the fact that she wrote that when she was nineteen makes it even sadder
I never really put attention to the lyrics of this song 😅 but that line and the whole performance made cried during this reaction hehe
I've been a Swiftie since I saw her on a talk show performing "Love Story" (Fearless). My daughter was born in 2013. When she was a baby, the song that would snap her from total complete meltdown to happy baby was "Shake It Off". She was 11 months old when it came out. I have a video of her somewhere dancing to the video. Anyway, FF and my now 9 year old daughter and I saw The Eras Tour in Arlington April 2nd. It was her first concert experience. And it was AMAZING.
My 4 and 5 year olds are hard core swifties and I'm not sorry.
I wish baby Taylor could see that fate didn't step in and force us into a goodbye, that she's still going strong and breaking records 13 years later

I’m so happy 😁 and glad 😀 to hear 👂🏻 it from a person 🧍♂️ that knows the history behind this song 🎶 it’s just the best way I have found in a lot ✈️ so thank please 🙏🏼 you and the team and I will keep on keeping up 🆙 to this song 🎵 to make this year a better and happier month to celebrate 🎊 cheers 🍻 for this album 💿 I can’t thank the world 🌍 enough to support you guys in all aspects in
I’m so happy 😁 and glad 😀 to hear 👂🏻 it
I’m so happy 😁 and glad
Long Live being written so early in her career yet it being SO evident that should her career end the next day, she already saw her fans and her experience as the biggest thing in her life.
Yeah its quite poetic actually. Awesome song!
"It must be exhausting always rooting for the anti-hero." We have fought for her and with her our whole lives. I'm just 2 years younger than Taylor and found her out during her Debut. I've been defending her, and in love with her artistry for 15 years.
Such a powerful line.
Me too!!!!!I love her since teardrops on my guitar!!!!!But im older than her!Im still a very happy swiftie!
Same!!! I'm 4 years younger than her, knew every word to Tim McGraw before her debut album even released (I was addicted to the GAC TV channel when I was 11-13 or so) and I've been right here the entire time. ❤
Oh my God.. Same here.. im 2 yrs younger than her and known her since debut era and even argue with haters hu tried to bring her down..
Same!! I’m a year younger. I played the debut album on repeat in my first car. I’m still made at myself for being an irresponsible teenager and scratching the debit CD.
She said 'promise me u'll stand by me forever' and that's what most swifties like me did & despite all of her never ending haters, look at the Kingdom we have right now.
I've watched her playing in a bar when she was 14 or 15 with maybe around 70 ppl watching..& manage to talk to her..& I told her I truly love her performance & how amazing she was & promised I would buy every album she gonna put out there & she didn't even have an album back then.
And to see her filling up some of the biggest stadiums in the world & playing to crowds of 90,000 ppl right now is truly an amazing journey for me.
💟💟
I’m so happy 😁 and glad 😀 to hear 👂🏻 it from a person 🧍♀️ that knows the history behind this project so far I can’t say the least of the lot ✈️ but 🥿 thank goodness 😅 it’s not the only
Long Live is undoubtedly one of the most meaningful songs for Swifties and I genuinely get emotional whenever I listen to it or watch it being performed! Taylor is such a kind and authentic human and always reminds her fans of how much we mean to her and how much she loves and appreciates us. It truly makes you feel like you're a part of something special. Also if you haven't heard it yet, you should totally react to this is me trying from folklore...it makes me tear up every time :,)
This is Me Trying was one of the surprise songs the night I went to tour 3/18. My daughter and I were lucky enough to have floor seats maybe 20 or 30 feet from where she sang it and it was one of the songs that made me cry 😢❤
Taylor’s low register is so flawless and so underrated among critics. It’s as if, people only need to hit high notes to be deserving of the “great vocalist” title.
Exactly she’s amazing ❤❤
Little cool fun fact, Taylor always takes a moment to acknowledge the entire crew, every dancer and musician who work on her shows, she never says “I” or “me” it’s lays “we” and “us”. No matter how far she’s come it’s never a show that’s just hers, it’s always the efforts of every single person on stage and every person whose helped build it.
Taylor Swift is the is well on her way to becoming the most prolific artist in music history.
This is a perfect graduation song.
No stopping her
I love the way that this song makes sense for every situation on Taylor's career. It makes me so emotional when I see on Tiktok fans having a children and tagging her on the videos with the line: If you have children someday, when they point to the pictures, please, tell 'em my name. She really wrote a timeless song and I get amazed every single time that I hear it.
Cool to think that a piece of music can stand the test of time
This is like my absolute favorite genre of TikToks. It's just so beautiful I love them
@@nickforell1 Crazy to think how many of her songs have. Fans still know every line at every show only now there's 60,000 of them 😂
This is why she has such dedicated fans because of how genuinely she cares for every single one of them. I went to the eras tour March 31st and it was a magical experience. I cried watching your reaction, keep them coming.
It's very evident how much she cares. Thank you so much Miguel
I was at that concert too. It was absolutely amazing!
@@keepyourmindopen It truly was. I left the stadium in tears lol im hoping I get tickets for the Houston one :)
At the same concert! It was absolutely magical. The best night of my life
@@TheNraveles It was an unforgettable night indeed. 💕
This was the first Taylor song that really captured me, that made me stop and go "Hold on, this girl can WRITE! She isn't just a singer, she's a freaking poet!" It has a very special place in my heart and it has been in my playlist for over a decade now. Your reaction was more than appropriate, haha! Thank you for sharing. Definitely watching your other Taylor videos.
Thank you Andy, I really appreciate that! She’s something else
The way you kind of smiled at the camera at times bc you felt like we all feel watching the performance, like she’s speaking to you personally. The way she connects with us is unmatched. Great review! Long live Taylor & the swifties❤
I can’t watch this performance without crying 😢🥺😢🥺
Such a passionate performance too
I've always found the line "please tell them my name" a key to understanding her. Great video, thanks for the Taylor content!
Glad you enjoyed Elin! Such a great line
Fun fact: the guitarist that sing with her in the end, his name is Paul. He’s been with Taylor since day one up until now
I have always said she HAS a wide range BUT she prefers to use her mid to lower range and I wholeheartedly believe this is because even though she could belt out the notes she wants the FANS to be able to sing (or scream) the words to her songs, regardless of if you are a great singer or not. and I can appreciate that, plus I think she feels more comfortable in that range thus making it a surprise whenever she adds the belting notes in her songs and live shows.
Ah yes, I heard that a lot of artists are forced to use a voice that isn't their natural voice sadly. Its good that she does what she wants
It's also because she's an alto.
I’m 12 years older than Taylor and my daughter is 12 years younger, and we found her when her second album Fearless came out and we’ve been singing every word together with her and bonding over Tay for 15 unforgettable years 💕💕💕 this song is in my top 3 for sure
So so cool. Glad she's been a part of your life for that long
I will always relate this song to her band and winning cma 2009 entertainer of the year and her up against legends and winning and bringing up her band. 🥰
2009 too! She's been so prominent for so long now :)
@@nickforell1 ya, you should react to her winning that award. It always brings a smile to my face
Didn’t the song hint or easter egg as we call it now from the album jacket actually tell us it’s about her band? Am I remembering it wrong? 🤔
I will definitely tell my kids about this legend someday if I have kids.
i feel like i am watching a mirror of myself fall in love with taylor swift. it is really refreshing to see someone move past the narrative around her and neat to witness it.
Thanks Maggie! She’s just super relatable
This song has so much effect that it makes me cry every time i hear it she is a genuine artist
Yay! Nick is back to Taylor! She often sings this slower with the piano, and it's beautiful. Looking forward to you finishing Folklore. Thanks for your positivity!
Yay, thank you Mama! Much more Taylor to come =)
Props to Tal for putting together the video. Enjoyed the reaction. This song always makes me super emotional. You can see the joy it brings Taylor to sing this one for her fans :)
This will always be one of my favourite songs from her, and that´s saying something because I love every single one of her songs. Thank you for this wonderful reaction, I´ll definitely subscribe!
The more I see of her the more I realize the incredible positive influence she has on her fans
I think that's part of the magic of Taylor, is that it feels intimate for so many of us, even watching from home! She hits on a feeling, a turn of a phrase, and makes us feel seen.
I wish she’d do more than one song from Speak Now in the Eras tour including THIS ONE!!!! Like dangitttttt
She deserves everything she has, she has worked hard for it❤
Watching this performed on Eras Tour (On Disney... sadly not live for me) and I cry every time. It's amazing how far she has come and the pure look of amazement on her face looking out over those full stadium with crowds going wild at the very right moment
i've heard this twice during the eras tour in Singapore and completely bawled. i don't know how Taylor performs it without choking up
Beautiful breakdown, Nick. And u encapsulated her Live perfectly: Intimate. That was the best way to describe how that Live performance felt.
Glad you enjoyed it r$b! Great seeing you around
If you are interested in her songwriting process you should watch these:
1. The Apple interview, 2020 with Zane Lowe.
2. The long pond studio sessions
3. Making of a song: lover
4. Behind a song; 7 reputation songs like delicate
Hi Starbuck I have done a lot of the long pond studio sessions which i adore. The others I will have to check out
I recommend Haunted live it is an awesome performance.
Honestly, can't stop crying from this song
The curse of Taylor is all her big hits and singles end up being like the simplistic, catchy songs - i mean she's smart enough to recognize which ones the radios will play, and she's not gonna miss out on that. But as a result her 10 min All too Wells and her Would've could've shoud've's, like all the masterful storytelling songs she has, they're "from the vault", or bonus tracks, and they're outside the public view and only visible to those who go actively looking for them- those already within the fandom.
Outside perspective will always kinda stay the same cuz... her hits play off that narrative.
Rewatching this video for the millionth time and it never gets old. As I’ve seen scrolling through some of the comments, this really is a throwback to a more younger and “naive” Taylor.
Some context I’ve seen sprinkled throughout:
-this was a performance at her Speak Now World Tour. SN is 2010, so this would’ve been 2011ish (so pre-all the reputation stuff).
-She wrote it for her band and her fans, and it’s incredibly obvious after watching the “Journey to Fearless” documentary about her. Being so young, she went on her first big tour (Fearless), it was the story of her taking risk and being strong and young and putting herself out there, the tour blew up, and she had magical times.
-So many lyrics are DIRECT parallels to images shown in the documentary…”crowds in stands went wild” with the tour, reading off names and dancing the night, the end of a decade but start of an age of Taylor, the “for me and you” being so intimate that you FEEL it, “I passed the pictures” (they were on tour for over a year so at the end she made yearbooks for her band and dancers who were her family, and the pictures align with that), the whole “cynics were outraged” about critics not believing she wrote her songs…and her later writing SN as an entirely self-written album which this song is on, her and her band against all odds taking over the world, from baseball caps and ripped up jeans to crowns and ruling the world, confetti falling to the ground, then what really gets me is her and her band being like family (as mentioned in the documentary, even doing stuff like visiting zoos, going to the beach, goofing off, they were a legit family on and off the stage, they went to each others weddings, knew their families, etc…) so the whole “promise me this” with standing by her forever, or if fate steps in and they get separated, if they have kids someday and they point to the pictures (from the yearbooks), please tell them my name and the memories we did and how we overcame everything and ruled the world.
This song really is about her fans, and most importantly her band, and the magic they all created. What makes it so special is that by this point she’d already been with her band for like 4-5 years (back in 2011), and you can recognize Paul (guitar) and Amos (bass) and so many players and even her backup singer quartet The Starlights in so many of her videos that you’ve reacted to for live performances, and seeing her at the Eras walking down during the song Fearless with Amos and Paul and her band that have been by her side for years through all the ups and downs, this song just HITS DIFFERENT (no pun intended).
Okay that’s my history novel, hope you’re ready for a pop quiz. Next chapter, we’ll be discussing…
Hi Nick, I'm so glad you found Taylor. This is an early clip and she looks so innocent which hasn't changed. I have always said she's a genius, and she's genuine. Couldn't ask for more. I'd love to meet her and her mom. Dynamic duo! Keep listening, lots more to come. Thanks for the reaction. 💜 lavender haze
Thank you Barb =) She just has it and apparently has since day 1
The face when she's standing there taking it all in is the same as when my daughter and I saw her in Arlington the beginning of April. :)
She is an incredible talent, and incredible singer and an incredible performer. All those breakup songs helped her along the way, but she is so much more than that young adult angst. She has an amazing voice that matches perfectly with her skills as a song writing artist. Top all that with the fact that the woman is beautiful. A really incredible talent...yes, I know, I already said that.
I think that as much as this song is for her fans , it is also for her bandmates who made it together to where they are now 🙂 .... Can you pls do "New Year's Day ( performance at tonight with Jimmy Fallon )" next ? 🙂
OMG yes! Have tissues at the ready...
I love seeing people that have grown up with her posting their kids reacting to her now. It’s so touching and absolutely beautiful because this song mentions it❤️
To all of you Swiftie’s here who are saying you’re 1 or 2 or 3 years younger than Taylor, especially if you had been a fan since you first heard Tim McGraw on the radio in 2006.
Do you feel an EXTRA special connection to this song because…(depending on whether you’re in the US, like I am, and if you were born in 1992…like I was)…. Long Live was literally written the same month that I graduated high school. I cannot even explain how much I appreciate having this song back then. (…even though Speak Now didn’t come out until I had already graduated and headed off to college), Long Live has always perfectly captured the heartwarming yet deeply painful sense of pride and gratitude I felt during my high school graduation. Class of 2010? It was the end of a decade, but the start of an age. 🫨🫠🤯🥺 and still feel it and tend to cry every single time I hear it. I haven’t ever been to a Taylor swift concert or show of any type, but these videos honestly make me cry like I’m in the crowd lol. 😂😅
Taylor’s live singing voice definitely changed for the better. She was kinda pitchy back in her Fearless Tour nearly 15 years ago, but she’s improved greatly. Her voice in this Eras Tour is pristine and well polished.
Oh God! I still remember 2016 when I fought with people telling them she is right and not in the wrong! Never bidding her goodbye! A fan of 13 years, and the love will long live! Thanks for an amazing reaction ❤
The most precious thing to Taylor is her fans and we have indeed stuck by her
I think its a two way street of being blessed
Hi, i love your reactions to Taylor, i first first from Taylor in 2008 with Love Story and i've been hooked on her music and her journey ever since. I'd love to see what you think of the short film of All Too Well. I know people have asked for it on your other vids but i'd love to see it. Have a great day and take care.
Hi Pheebs! Yes, it definitely gets suggested a lot so maybe it's something I would do on a livestream in the future!
I was a Swiftie way back when she started, but I quit listening as I got older. My 6 year old re-introduced me to her with Shake It Off, now we are both Swifties!
Cool that your old Taylor flame was reignited!
Can't make it through this song without crying
I never saw this live performance or the documentary before and it's so nice to get to watch it alongside a reactor. You're a new reactor to me, this is the 2nd I've watched, and I love your reaction here from slightly under a year ago. Thank you for this! I teared up at the bridge even though I know this song by heart and now this has nothing to do with your reaction but actually I think some of the captions they put for the lyrics were wrong... small things but like "Can you take a moment?" they wrote as "And you take a moment" which just annoys me, or the first line of the song at 8:15 I think it's "I said" not "I say"... if this is the official captions it just drives me bonkers. She actually has the most amazing official lyric videos ever now for her newer albums but even those got a few lyrics wrong but not as many as something like closed captions.
Back to reacting to your reaction, I love how genuine and sweet your reactions are, how supportive of Taylor you are, how happy for her, it's such a sweet, comforting thing to watch a reaction from someone who can appreciate the simple wonderfulness of this song. And her performance. And how happy she looks :)
I think everyone didn’t know her till I fell was now when we can see and talk about what she did really well. She is amazing and she does a show really well also. I think she was around for awhile now. But she’s my favorite person.
this bridge always makes me cry so hard ugh i love her sm
It’s such a beautiful song. She be dope
At the end there…the guitar player, Paul, is still her guitar player today. She even highlights him in a guitar solo on tour. 😊
That’s so cute. She’s cool
Love this performance. Love the Eras performance of this song too. So special!
I'm so glad you did this reaction to the live performance of this song. It just hits so much harder seeing her as she looks at and reacts to the crowd. Sometimes I feel strange that this song can make a 50-something year old guy cry, but even more I guess I feel bad for anyone who wouldn't have a strong emotional reaction to this performance.
Perfect graduation song
This our anthem!
Nick I really love seeing your reactions to the brilliance of Taylor's songs, watching them for the first time with us! 🥰
Also the additional background information about Taylor is really great. Thank you!😊👍
Long Live Taylor Swift 💜
🐉
I'm so glad you are enjoying them Debbie! More to come
So much love for this performance of her Long Live! The words evoke emotions and feelings.
got goosebumps
Subscribed because I seen Taylor swift; stayed because I love your reactions! I look forward to these now. Thank you :) hope you’re having a good day!
Awesome! Thank you!
I was at The Eras Tour here in Brazil, and listening to this song, and hearing the crowd was absolutely something magical
this was amazing! i'd love to see you react to anything from her album Reputation! Like the live performance of Ready for It or I Did Something Bad! I think you'd love the Reputation tour! Or even something from her on-going eras tour!! Love the reactions! Keep it up!
Thank you =) I'll check those out!
another meaning .. that the outcast kids in high school got to get the recognition say at homecoming that before had been bestowed on the 'in crowd' ... also there are only a few performers that can play solo acoustic in a stadium and own it .. dylan mccartney springsteen mitchell ... and swift ...
I actually first heard of Taylor years ago through Long Live, but the version where she collaborates with the brazilian singer and composer Paula Fernandes.
She allowed Paula to rewrite and sing a whole section of the song instead of having a litteral translation and their version eventually became part of the soundtrack of a br soap opera.
Their videoclip (m.ua-cam.com/video/1etzkcAo6WA/v-deo.html) was also made in a way where it seems they are both live performing together even being a sea away from each other. Which, from a 2013 perspective, was really dope to watch 😂
I was a Paula fan and later on became a Swiftie thanks to this song
HUGE thank you to Tal, who puts these videos together! You're so good at putting together a comprehensive story for a greater understanding of Taylor as an overall artist.
Nick, your reactions are fantastic. Watching smart, intuitive people fall in love with Taylor is my happy place. So thank you. 💜
Glad you like them! Tal is so amazing and supportive. He’s a real MVP for helping me find great Taylor content
This song always makes me think of when I was in high school marching band and we won a field season trophy lol. I've sadly never been to a TSwift concert but I've been a devoted fan since Speak Now. Speak Now and Evermore are my favorite albums, but I listen to them all continuously. Looks like I might not afford the Eras Tour even though I'm finally old enough to make my own money to go to a concert, but hopefully I'll get to hear this song live someday.
I wholeheartedly believe you will get to a concert one day!
She has making of some of her songs which is behind the scenes of her recording songs off reputation. I suggest those for sure!!
Okay thank you Kelsey!
Hearing the new version of this one is going to break me for sure 😭
That show was in Seattle because the thirteen on her hand is for the thirteenth man of the Seahawks. I was there.
Yeah, it was flawless.
I think it’s a combo of an acknowledgment to her fans and also those in her inner circle
i couldn't get one ticket to her show in Amsterdam next year...i am devestated 😢 there is really nothing i wanted more💔 i would give everything to sing long live with her and every one there❤❤❤ swifie from Belgium❤
Most people only hear the negative about Taylor, and they never really bothered to really listen to her, to learn anything real about her.
It's when you sit down, and learn about her, and see her, and you see her personally, that she's real, that's when they become a fan.
Taylor's music will grow on you. You may listen to a album, and not really like it, but then you learn the stories behind each song, the how, and why they were created, and suddenly, you find you like the songs, then you love the songs.
Long time ago, I heard about Taylor, and people always said she can't sing, and I agreed, that her voice really wasn't that good, that it didn't really have much range. I didn't dislike her, I just didn't care to listen to her music, because it didn't really stand out to me, because I wasn't really listening to it, wasn't listening to the words.
I somehow found myself watch Journey To Fearless, it's a Documentary Concert you can watch on youtube. This video does a great job of showing you who Taylor really is, and getting you to listen to her songs for the first time really, and after watching that video I was a Swiftie! That was around 2010. I went on to watch the Speak Now concert, and knew I made the right decision.
Taylor can sing, but she has more a character voice, not really the kind of voice you consider a singers voice. As she got older, her voice has gotten much better. I think that's the reason why you really need to be introduced to her in just the right way, and it just clicks, and you become a fan. You see her in a whole different way.
I hope she will sing this "Long Live" in hard rock version just like she did in her song "We Never Getting Back Together." She's truly the Total Entertainment ❤
You guys....if she plays it at the last show as a acoustic at the Eras....what are we gonna do? How are we gonna survive that? Like we need to make a plan, because otherwise we are all going to die.
I 100% think that’s what she’s gonna do. It makes the most sense to have that be at the last show
@@TheNraveles yeah I was thinking that from the start, when she announced how are the surprise songs going to work... but I'm still debating with myself, if it's gonna be the last show of the US leg or last show over all. Like of course it would make most sense if it was last show over all, but WHEN the hell is that going to be? Also being from the US it would maybe make sense if she sang it on the last show of US leg. I don't know,I'm quite torn.
I’m sure it will be at the last show which makes me so sad since I won’t be there. 😭😭😭
I feel it’s important that she tells you that she wants you to be with her. And that all the men who tried to make her look bad
Thank you Tal
Tal is amazing
When I was younger I didn't really think much of her. Sure, I've heard one or two songs of her on the radio, but I just always only thought "yeah it's catchy". I never just sat down and REALLY listened, you know? I think that's most haters problem. They just never really paid attention to what she was actually saying, they just shoved her into a box and were done with it. But the thing is - she just does not have a box. For the longest time I didn't know ANY artists like her.
One day I saw a video of a live performance... and down the rabbit hole I went!!! It was such a joy! It's suprising how I discovered her "other" music first and not her heartbreak songs, which she was known for. Something just clicked. It was just soo freacking easy to fall in love with her as an artist and then discover her to be a decent and genuine human being, too.
You should definetly check out her live performances (It's always a good time!) and her documentaries ("Miss Americana" and the Reputation Stadium Tour!) It will give you a look into her life and what she went throughout her career. I garantee that you will connect the dots in your head to certain lyrics and you will be amazed.
OHH and the behind the scenes videos and her "making of a song" videos! You will love it!
But frist and foremost - HAVE FUN and ENJOY!!!!!!!!!!
Thank you so much 😊 glad we’ve both discovered how insanely talented she is
For the heck of it watch her live performance of Long Live with Paula Fernandez in Rio, and you'll be astounded by how the crowd reacts and how gracious Taylor is towards Paula. That performance is my favourite Long Live live performance.
Will do Ray, thank you!
When I hear this I think of a sports anthem where the underdogs win the championship. Like the Eagles 1st Superbowl. Thats how I feel this song.
I would love to take you to the eras tour with me just to see the artistry, the stamina, the fans, and just all the beauty of it in real time.
Aw thanks Jessica, that would be quite an experience
My daughter and I are both swifties. I'm 50 and she's 15. :)
This was the song that was playing at the end of the Bejeweled MV.
Also make sure you put your headphones in and jam out to the studio recording too bc it’s an Experience
Thank. You. So. Much. You. Got. It. Baby. Love. You. 😂😂
She actually wrote the song for her band.
That's wonderful, what a kind gesture
You should do a reaction to your on your own kid it’s so sweet I love it aswell
The secret message in the original album for this song is “for you” because this is for the fans
I see, a nice shout out to her fans
You should also check out the songs she has written and given to other people to sing cause they are great too. Like Little Big Town - better man or Sugarland - Babe or Kelley Pickler - Best Days Of Your Life or a collab with The Civil Wars - Safe & Sound etc!!!!!!!!
Yes Valarie many people have suggested that so it will happen!
Imagine sitting there, writing a song for your band and your fans thinking your career may just end after this album.
Speak Now was a huge risk and the media was honestly getting onto her about a lot, especially it being after the VMA situation and such. All spotlights were on here and it was her 3rd album which as many know there is a trend between artists where either their 3rd/4th album are considered massive flops and usually bring their career down.
Going from fearless to speak now was a huge dynamic shift as sonically they were very different and she took many risks.
It paid off though with a Grammy win and nomination and she came out on top above all the naysayers
The Long Live/New Year's Day mash up she did at the Reputaion tour was also amazing. ua-cam.com/video/63wFD9NCOXc/v-deo.html
Please do wildest dream/enchanted mash up from the 1989 tour
I say this on just about every video about Long Live. We won't have to tell them her name. They'll know... they'll know...
from this grandma listening with my grandkids - I agree
I'm gonna pass out when i hear the re-recorded version
Taylor KNOWS words: in terms of dynasty and noble family, the French legal term for a legitimate claim to a title or throne is "pretendre" (tender, offer legal proof). Taylor is largely self-taught (she had to home school after her first album released, because, touring). She read a lot of history during the long Fearless tour (about a year and a half of touring).
A "pretender' is someone with a legitimate claim: so, in English History you have James Stewart (The Old Pretender) and his son, Charles (The Young Pretender). The Stuart dynasty was set aside because it was Catholic, replaced by William of Orange (William III). It does NOT mean fake in that sense. So, in talking about "pretenders" I am pretty sure Taylor is just talking about RIVALS (other artists), and isn't calling them fakes.
There’s been some discussion that she wrote this for her long-time former co-writer and collaborator Nathan Chapman. They co-wrote and co-produced her Grammy Album of the Year and Diamond-selling album Fearless together. This song is seen by some to be about what Taylor and Nathan achieved together, some of the backlash her Grammy win received from music industry and critical snobs, and their legacy together as the creators of that album. I agree with this analysis, as the lyrics are way too specific to just be only about “the fans.”
Wow thank you for the background on that S R
Watch miss americana!!!
Okiee
Crying in 2024.

You want to cry over a tswift song? The Best Day makes me weep everytime. Highly suggest the music video as this adds to the story
Thank you Candice!
Please react to long live taylor version live in eras tour.
I would like to see your reaction to Ten Lee's music video "Birthday". He has no training as a dancer. Every choreographer knows his name. He has been abused by the system. I love BTS but he is better.
I remember seeing a TV news show from when Taylor was 17. They interviewed her with her mother there. I thought she was the total package. She had tremendous drive. Then I forgot about her. She kept popping up. I kept thinking "you go girl"! When BTS didn't win a Grammy guess who was first to talk to them?
