This is one of her best openers. Truly encapsulates the mood of the entire album.
Great song! Amazing opener. Thanks for watching.
@olbeenoric_xing in my opinion it's THE best taylor opener. I wish i could listen for the first time again.
Folklore is an elite album that truly deserved its AOTY grammy
I just saw today it's never left the top 100 of the billboard charts the entire 4 yrs it's been out. It was my favorite before TTPD. Finally got the vinyl added to my collection last week. (Don't even have a player😅)
😂 the seventh song on this album is called "seven" and the eight "august" - the eight month of the year 😁
Cool! Thanks for letting me know about that! 😃
@SaeedReacts you will love Seven for the same reasons as Robin probably.
That album is perfect from start to finish. Folklore carried me through the pandemic
Folklore and Evermore still carry me even now, I listen to them in full fairly regularly. Man what fantastic albums.
@@Desolate-Utopiasame!
If you're moving on to folklore, you should really do some long pond studio sessions with the interviews. I feel like you will appreciate what she has to say about the meaning behind some songs and her writing process.
Also, if you're gonna do Would've, Could've, Should've, you should listen to Dear John first. ;-)
Yep, everything said here! Take this advice! lol
Thanks for the recommendations and advice. I might jump albums from time to time, but will definitely keep your comment in mind.
I absolutely LOVE Folklore. She made both Folklore and Evermore during Covid. She was bored after 2 days of quarantine so she decided she was going to be productive. She made a studio in her home because everything was closed. She solved that problem. I’m excited for you to hear more of Folklore.
If you listen to “Would’ve Could’ve Should’ve”, but listen to “Dear John” first as it’s a 2 part series; done many years apart about the same person who was 9 years her senior, John Mayer. She wrote the 2nd part when she was 29, John’s age when they were together. Genius.
Thank you!! This is definitely a bop! My favorites from Folklore are “Epiphany”, “Exile with Bon Iver”, “My Tears Ricochet” (about the person who sold her masters; you’ll see the anger in her eyes), “This is Me Trying” & “Hoax”. I know it’s a lot, but this album is a masterpiece in my opinion.
Chefs kiss 😘
Watch the Long Pond Studio Sessions for this album. It makes such a HUGE difference. Jack Antonoff, Aaron Dessner and Taylor Swift have conversations about the song, (how it came about and what they want people to think it’s about) before they play it. Obviously Taylor says this is all folk songs, but we now know better.
There’s a love triangle 🔺: “Betty”, “August” and “Cardigan”. 2 females in love with the same guy, each song told in one of their different perspectives. Cardigan is the main girlfriend, told from her future. August is the summer fling girl still in high school and Betty is from the guy, also still in high school. It’s soo good if you can listen to the trio together. She ties them together so beautifully but also not overly obvious. I hope you see this post!! 🥰🤗🎤
Thanks so much for taking the time to share some info! Definitely want to check out more and will keep this comment in mind 🙏🏽
What timing for this reaction video - she just played this as one of her surprise songs on the eras tour today!
It was meant to be 😃.
And this video was recorded a week ago before i left on holiday.
Thanks so much for watching.
@@SaeedReacts. Totally meant to be! (Which gives me an idea for a song suggestion - "Invisible String", also on the Folklore album)
Long pond sessions for this album is great
Also Aaron Dessner, member and founder of the band The National. This is the first album he worked with taylor. And has ever since. They are a perfect match honestly. Taylor said that his musical composions inspire her writing.
Also if you ever do Would’ve Could’ve Should’ve you NEED to do Dear John first. Directly after one another. Because it’s about the same relationship. Dear john right after and WCS after 12 years
I agree, “Dear John” first and then right after “Would’ve Could’ve Should’ve”. If you could do both songs in one reaction that would be great! Taylor wrote “Dear John” at age 20 right after her relationship with singer John Mayer. Taylor wrote “Would’ve” later at the same age John was (age 32) when he dated Taylor. Taylor was only 19 years old when they dated just to give you some context.
Every album that Aaron has produced by every artist has been amazing.
Love you exploring more Taylor. She dropped Folklore a few months in the pandemic lockdown by SURPRISE, we had NO idea, no promo or Easter eggs or warning and it perfectly captured the vibe, let’s go into our imaginary woods and escape this crappy reality. I highly recommend you do the Folklore Long Pond sessions with the commentary, it’s beautiful 🫶
Oh wow! That must have been amazing. Especially in that time. Thanks for watching.
Please do Dear John and Would've, Could've, Should've together
such a great song, sometimes I forget it is sad.
She literally sang this one as a surprise song today! Loved the reaction, this is my favorite song from Folklore!
Coincidence or fate? 😅
Great opener!
Great reaction!! I would love to see your reaction to My Tears Ricochet
me too🥰
Yeeeees, but long pond studio session, 'cause that one hits different.
@@saravandaele2758 oh 100%
Thanks for the recommendation ! So many options to choose from 😅. Looking forward to explore more
@@SaeedReacts. Well I am looking forward to all your reactions! And if you ever want any recommendations I will leave some in my comments on videos. 🩵
This is one of Taylor's best albums! So glad you're exploring it. You asked about the penny. It's one cent. We have the penny 1 cent, nickel 5 cents, dime 10 cents, quarter 25 cents, and we have the half dollar coin which is 50 cents. We also have a dollar coin but they aren't used very often.
Thanks for letting me know! Appreciate that!
She just played this song as a mashup with Wonderland (from 1989) on her Eras tour last night in Milan.
yasss we want you to deep dive into her whole discography 😅
Definitely exploring more! 😃
This is one of my favorite songs of hers.
I have every lesson and we listened to these tracks a million times through headphones without in my car on a walk with my daughter's and I always find something new. I really love your takes on everything. I never connected the pennies in the pool and then leaving well enough alone with the connection between wishing well.
I’m SO GLAD you did this song!! It’s one of my favorites of hers of everything she’s done. This song makes me feel nostalgic for a past love that didn’t work out. I suppose it wasn’t meant to but it’s still hurts to think back and wonder what could have been if it did. Tears you up at times to recall it and contemplate. Love your breakdown of it-spot on once again man👌🏽🫶🏽💕
Amazing song. Can definitely relate to thinking about how certain things or choices would have played out if the variables were slightly different. Thanks for watching.
oh the "what if" thoughts, they come and go but never really leave
Its hard to completely get rid of them. I did get better at catching myself quicker and not venture as deep down that rabbithole as i used to 😅
YAY! its folklore time
'Also ran' and esoteric are the only TTPD songs I've had to Google 😂 my weird flex in life.
😄😄😄
I love your sense of humor and your facial expressions. Really enjoying your TS reactions, you will adore the lyrics on Folklore and Evermore.
Thanks so much for watching and the kind words! Have a great day!
This is one of my favorite songs of hers and such a wonderful album opener.
A wonderful little easter egg about this song is in the Fortnight music video. The number 1 is missing on her typewriter, insinuating this song may have been written about Matty Healy.
Great catch!
im obsessed w ur taylor reactions!! i can't wait to see what ur favorite album by her is. in my opinion, she maintains legendary songwriting in every album. you'll notice how different every album is (even folklore & evermore which r sister albums) and yet they all have her 'signature' on it.
Thanks so much! I didnt know they were sister albums. Excited to check out more.
Thanks for this! I can't wait for you to listen to more of Folklore and it's sister album, Evermore. They've quickly become two of my top albums. Just breathtaking lyrics and melodies.
Looking forward to explore more. Thanks for watching.
Style is another great one, All you had to do was stay, and Clean are some favorites.
Probably laughed more than I should at you saying more no than yes, totally understand that 😂 loved the reaction! Excited to see more Folklore & Evermore reactions from you!
The power of No 😅😄
Thanks so much for watching. Will check out more of these albums!
Loving your reactions! Hope you do the whole album and in order, i think it would be awesome for your comprehension
Thanks so much!
Not sure if i will do the whole album, but am considering it.
I also recorded a reaction to her song Tim Mcgraw. Just to go back in time a little 😄
I love this song!!
There would be no TTPD without this, the birth of TS/AD collabs. Their mesmerizing songs are some of the best ever written and I hope they never stop. FL & EM were near perfect and saved us during the pandemic and still some of the best parts of ET.
I love your reactions. New follower. Thank you ❤
Thanks so much for subscribing!
Thanks for the reaction!
Thanks for watching.
Folklore has a bonus track called The Lakes, I think you would like it. I have always liked we never painted by the numbers, but we were making it count, you are like the first person who has mentioned it. Her first 6 she is re-recording to reclaim them, but she adds the vault tracks, they didn't make the original cut, new production, and sometimes with features. 1st album, titled Taylor Swift, does not own yet. TV (Taylor's Version) owns, Fearless, Speak Now (totally self-written), Red, 1989. Her 6th album is Reputation, which she does not own yet. That is the one I am waiting for, at 65 I hope to hear it before I die, can't wait to hear the vault tracts. Reputation is her edgier album. Great reaction.
Oh...the lakes is an AWESOME suggestion
I love this song so much!! I loved this reaction, I’ve discovered you yesterday and I’ve binged all your TS reactions until this one! It’s not that often that I encounter a Belgian creator on UA-cam, being from Belgium myself! Can’t wait for the next one!
Great song! Thanks so much for being here! Always great to meet some fellow Belgians. 😃
I've binge wat he'd your reactions all evening and really appreciate your reactions...! Genuine. 'ricochet' is insane and powerful. Would enjoy your take on it!
Thanks so much for watching!
Will add that one to my list!
You will love Folkmore and Evermore! You should watch the long-pond studio sessions!! There are short interviews about every song in which Taylor, Jack and Aron talks about the song, some backstory, what it means and so on.. it’s amazing music but also an insight to Taylor’s thoughts and meanings of the lyrics.. it’s music and Taylor gold!!
I'm English and reckon at least 80% of us know what Also ran means. It's an old-fashioned expression, so it is dying out.
Love that you’re doing folklore. It would be awesome if in one video you did Betty, August, and Cardigan since the 3 songs are connected as what Taylor calls the teenage love triangle!!
Thanks for letting me know about that. Will keep that in mind for when i find the time 😄
Great reaction ❤ please do Dear John LIVE before would've could've should've
Thanks for watching and the recommendation!
And yes, you are correct at the first thing you said, A penny is one cent😉👍🏽
Thanks for letting me know!
This album was my floatation device during pandemic. U should also watch the long pond studio session where every track is recorded xplained
That sounds interesting. Definitely want to check it out, if i can find the time.
No one seems to know that term. I had to look it up half expecting it to not even be a real word. Leave it to Taylor 😊
@@dogloversmith7139 I am from the U.S. and I swear that word was just invented.😂
First Time i ever heard it in my life and not 2 days later i hear it again 😅
Tx Saeed. As I state before I don't really know her music. Your channel is a beautiful tapestry of colour.
Greetings from South Africa
Thanks so much! Another great discovery for me as well.
3:47 that's the smallest man who ever lived ❤
You just reacted to So Long London... Remember right there at the end of the song she says "so long, London, had a good run, a moment, of warm sun, but I'm not THE ONE" 😭😭😭😭😭 It's a reference to this song 😭😭😭😭
Ooh! Hope i can start to catch some of these references as i get to know her music better. Thanks for pointing that out!
@@SaeedReacts. It's because you reacted to these songs so close together that I pointed it out so that you have a more recent frame of reference 😊
I loved your reaction and your tangent on not colouring in the lines 😊 I always feel like Swift does this really... neatly and craftily....are the words I think of first 😬 she takes well known sayings, sometimes even clichés and just tweaks them a bit or turns them on their head... Just that liiiiiittle bit of a different perspective that makes you consider time-worn tropes in a completely new way.
It's just ups the relatability for me so much 😊
Ha! So crazy about the podcast and also-ran!
That was crazy! I immediately got the biggest smile on my face in that moment.
I know what it means now 😄
Thanks to Taylor.
More TS reactions!!!! Please please please. I love your reactions to her songs so much. Peace and love!
Later today i have a reaction to her song Tim Mcgraw coming. I wanted to go back a little. Music is a time machine 😃.
Thanks so much for watching!
who has been waiting for the folklore time? let's go. can't wait for "seven" and "epiphany" reaction. nice first reaction tho
Thanks so much for watching! And the recommendations. I might jump all over the place 😅
"If you never bleed you're never gonna grow" is a very Dylanesque moment. It could have fit into "It's Alright Ma, I'm Only Bleeding" nicely.
Great observation!
Can't wait for you to hear more of Folklore and Evermore. But please do listen to Guilty as Sin and So High School ♥️
Looking forward to them!
After listening to your reaction, and actually breaking this song apart holy canoli!
Hear me out - this is a matty song...
Roaring 20's (they were in their 20s when then met and she talks about it in TTPD often)
You meet some woman on the internet and take her home - reminds me of the song "if you're too shy"
He opens the song with "I see her online all the time"
Although i know the song gets a little strange if youve never heard their music tho lol.
And The 1 is just giving me "cause i wonder.." from chole or sam or sophia or marcus, like shes wondering what it would have been like if he was the one.
Thanks for sharing some info! Not familiar with their music, so there is a lot of context i miss. Luckily most songs also work without it (for the most part). Testament to great writing!
Some have said this could be about Matt Healy ? They go back to 2014 and matty had always encouraged her to write a folk album. Some swifties might know more
I'm not sure if folklore and evermore can be attributed to Matty, but I think the 1 is about him. In the Fortnight music video, the 1 button is missing from her typewriter.
Some songs to react to ❤
This is me trying
Peace
Cardigan
Happiness
Champion problems
Tolaret it
Evermore
Ivy
Cowboy like me
I think you will really like Folklore. It’s an amazing album as well as the sister album evermore. Please listen to all the songs from those albums.
Definitely will explore more!
🫶how’s the weather, no. Why are bananas curved, no. 💀 🔥 that’s was hilarious. Love your TS reactions. 🫶
😄😄
Thanks so much!
Leaving well enough alone meansis implying she left him for something "more exciting" when she should have kept what she had which was more safe and comfortable. Now she regrets doing so
If you’re going to react to would’ve could’ve should’ve you should first react to Dear John. They are intertwined. And you first need some backstory. Both songs are about John Mayer who Taylor dated when she was 19 and he was 32. This relationship was toxic/abusive and it really affected Taylor in many ways. Dating someone older and the relationship being toxic/abusive. Especially when you are that young will impact you. John Mayer is known for being toxic/abusive in relationships and several women have spoken out about it. Dear John was written when Taylor was 19. Johns tried to sue her but lost and instead wrote a revenge song about her. Would’ve could’ve should’ve was written when Taylor her self was 32. (The same age as John was when they dated) and the song is track 19!
Thanks for sharing this! Will keep that in mind!
I know you mention Would've Could've Should've in the video, can you please do a reaction to that one?! It's so good and heartbreaking at the same time.
Definitely will check it out!
😊 Ahhh...you have moved to Folklore...great great album, try The Long Pond Sessions, same songs, but more stripped back and in the studio...GREAT reaction
I did! I might jump from time to time. Thanks for the recommendation!
Taylor has plenty great songs. I recommand you Maroon, The Great War, Dear reader and Midnight Rain from Midnights. It's more a pop album and she kind of experiments on it (especially with Midnight Rain). I also hope you will continue your ttpd journey. I can't wait for your next Taylor reaction, I've been enjoying a lot your TS reactions!
Thanks for the recommendations. She has an extensive catalogue!
when you decide to do Would've, Could've should've start with Dear John (both about the same situation, Dear John from when she was 20 and then would've at 33/33)
Thanks for that advice! Much appreciated.
Good one.
You should listen to Hoax by Taylor Swift. It's on the album as well.
That title already speaks to me!
Hope you listen to her song august! Its really² good im sure you will love it!
Its on my todo list!
My first time listening Taylor Swift. Not exactly my thing, but wasn’t all bad either. Ok man, If you are open to listening all kind of music, then I follow your lead 👍
Also new for me. At least most songs. I knew a few songs, but i have been enjoying the songs off her new album and now i am going back a little 😄
Thanks for taking a chance on this one!
Lol cute❤
❤
She's re-recording everything from Taylor Swift (2006) to reputation (2017) - and only these two are missing rerecords already. And everything from Lover (2019) onwards is already fully hers. When reacting please check for Taylor's Version so you react to HER stuff and not to the stuff that is under abduction and giving coin to a trash person
Didnt know she was rerecording all her music. This version is from her official youtube channel. Will keep it in mind for future songs as well.
@@SaeedReacts. Everything that was sold out of under her. It's a whole thing If you ever want to know more about Taylor and this re recording story, there's a documentary on Netflix, "Miss Americana" (1h25min). I really recommend it. You get to know the main points of her career path that started so young :)
When I heard throwing pennies in the pool, I thought it was panties in the pool. 😂
I hope i can still hear pennies now when i listen next time 😅🤣
FIRSTTTT
Hey! Thanks for being here ❤️
Love your reaction, again! Since you mentioned it, Would’ve Should’ve Could’ve is a stunner for several reasons…it’s fair to look up her and John Mayer first🫣
Thanks for watching and the advice 😃
❤
❤️
