How can you play this game and not use any lyrics from folklore or evermore?!? Like “I’d meet you where the spirit meets the bones”. There are so many poetic lines to choose from😭
I say they play it again!!
Ikr it's kind of a let down they didn't use folklore/evermore lyrics😭😭😭
exactly... '' is it romantic how all my elegies eulogize me?''
@@SamuelSampayo literally. “I bathe in cliffside pools with my calamitous love and insurmountable grief” l
That's what I'm thinking
You know you made it when your song writing is being compared to Shakespeare.
Ikr!
You know you made it when your lines are being compared to THE Artist of the Decade AKA Taylor Swift
I was thinking that the whole time I was watching this video!
by imbeciles lmfao
i know Im kinda randomly asking but do anyone know of a good website to watch newly released series online ?
As both a Swiftie and a Shakespeare nerd, this game was *chefs kiss* peak entertainment
"oh it's Taylor because like fReSh"
meanwhile Taylor: i bathe in cliffside pools with my calamitous love and insurmountable grief
thank you this was so fun 😂
the lakes supremacy. so true.
What song is that
@@heavenokah8954 the lakes :) it's from folklore
yeah!
that sounds very much like a generic sentence heavily thesaurused lmao
Taylor has BETTER lines than the ones you choose...
ikr. I was disappointed
Exactly...could’ve given any lines from the lakes or another, would’ve confused the contestants
Totally agree, but so does Shakespeare. I think the point was that they were tryna confuse them with fairly simple lines.
PERIODT
yeah!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Shakespeare only wished he’d written State of Grace.
Right? I just know he was spewing up in heaven when she wrote that
Also folklore evermore and speak now
YES!
shakespeare would die again if he heard “the lakes” by taylor swift
It's the way at one point Josh makes a swiftie level deduction and then the second time literally mixes up the same play he is a part of...I can't-
Also, this is peak entertainment I have been laughing for half an hour now. Love the whole cast to bits.
Oh my gosh. Shubham Saraf is hilarious! 😂 I saw him in As you like it at the Globe in 2018 so I’m not surprised he was very chuffed when he got that right. Good on him.
play again but this time use lyrics from foklore and evermore
God, you wasted the game. It was very lazily planned.
If you used lyrics from folklore and evermore, they would have never be able to guess which is Taylor’s and which is Shakespear’s.
I am not really satisfied on this, they are using Taylor's common lyrics, most is for William
Yea i hope they will play this again with evermore/folklore lyrics :(
Yeah I was surprised when the first three were all Shakespeare lines. Switch it up.
Just shows how outstanding Taylor as a writer ✨ even being compared to Shakespeare. ♡
Songs from evermore album would make them more confused
Petition to play again but with folklore and evermore lyrics
who tf chose those TS lyrics? she has so much better lines... 😑
i wish they added evermore or folklore lyrics to this game, would’ve been even more challenging
you guys saying they used lame TS quotes like Willy’s best line was “Friendship keeps us fresh.” lmao. they obviously wanted to go for a very simple yet still confusing vibe
Lol exactly! Like as both a hardcore Swiftie and also a Shakespeare nerd I can absolutely say this represented neither of their best work.
"Do you miss the rogue who coaxed you into paradise and left you there"
I mean that's some serious Shakespeare level poetry going on
Part II - Taylor Swift lyrics from Folklore and evermore
RIP Shakespeare you would’ve loved folklore
Being a swiftie is such a blessing 🤩
I’m honestly shocked that Josh doesn’t know the chorus of Love Story
Theres only two taylor swift answers? I want more!!
they really fucked this up. they had so many missed opportunities. "is it romantic how all my elegies eulogize me" "hows one to know id meet you where the spirit meets the bones" "take me to the lakes where all the poets went to die"
I looked up a bunch of shakespeare quotes the other day, because i wanted to play this with my friends. hopefully i can use some from this video!
Only Taylor Swift will be compared with Shakespeare lmao.. Love her!!
Please do a part two and add lyrics from folklore and evermore
Please!
I'm in love with Shubham 😭
These actors are so sweet I can't
You guys better do one with folklore and evermore lyrics!!!
Hey he's that guy who played Charles in the crown
And I say, play it again! I love this!
This is the content I needed today
Deym. Josh is theeeeeere! 😍
Well - If I was one of those participants, I could have a perfect score. I have neither read nor have seen the play, I certainly know the words to all Taylor Swift songs. 😇❤️💪
this is too short. MORE!!!
I NEED MORE CONTENT LIKE THIS🤣😭😭😭
I was waiting for folklore or evermore lyrics to come out on the screen
i got these all right 😂😂
I'm just wondering if Kentish town is holy ground 😂😂
can you do this again with folklore and evermore?
they are literally the best songwriting in the world, argue with the wall
Yeah taylor bc she's a queen periodt 💛
Ohh Josh you should listen love story by Taylor Swift❤️
every time I see this and josh is like holy ground is about joe
and I am like no it's not bout joe. it's about joe
and then I get confused ಠ_ಠ
when and how can I watch this and will it be able for download????!!?!?!?
Sky Arts (free channel in the UK) on 4 Apr at 9pm or PBS (check local US listings) on 23 Apr. We're looking at ways to get Romeo & Juliet shown around the world :)
@@NationalTheatre thank You very much! But as I'm in middle of europe and we don't have an option to download app or even to watch online beacause it is unavailable to us except for UK citizens :(
imagine being a good writer that you're being compared to taylor swift
Name the Taylor Swift songs you've listened to.
@@mairazaidi13 wdym
I want a part two
Gosh i loved this hahaha
Nooo! NOt one lyric from folklore or evermore- the most poetic of her albums. That would have been much harder!
Hay amé 💞💞, desde Argentina saludos!!
the absence of folklore and evermore here doesn't feel right
Wait... Is that Mr. Ajayi?
Sure is
I hope Taylor will see this 😊
Where can I watch the show after it's out I'm an Indian
do one with evermore and folklore album
This video is so short love the idea of it tho
Taylor has brilliant lines to be chosen from. weird thing to do!
Loved this only got one wrong as I was playing a long
Me knowing very well Taylor doesn't use the word fresh like that
Will this be streamable?!
next time choose the lines from folklore and evermore
shakespeare: better a witty fool than a foolish wit
taylor: do you miss the rogue who coaxed you into paradise and left you there? will you forgive my soul when you're too wise to trust me and too old to care?
came here to laugh again skskdks jk btw
Iloveyou Taylor ❤️
Imagine being compared to Taylor Swift..
List the Taylor Swift songs you've actually listened to.
@@mairazaidi13 i dunno what and HOW you meant your response, but im a swiftie. And what i said was a compliment!
@@btchyep8830 OMG IM SOOOO SORRY i totally misinterpreted that
wow im dumb
there were only two taylor songs wtf
THE TWO GREATEST WRITERS OF ALL TIME
You need to do part 2 cuz this was really messed up , the person who picked her lyrics clearly doesnt know anything abt her lyrics those arr just random
For ANYONE who doubts that Taylor is a musical genius, show them this video. They can't tell the difference between one of the greatest writers OF ALL TIME and Taylor (one of the greatest writers of all time). Play this game with another pop star and I bet it will be a lot easier (not calling anyone out but I sure could).
She has better lines.
Those are not even her finest lyrics.
You really wasted the game
This was like the most disappointing video ever, there are like WAYY BETTER Taylor lyrics especially in folklore and evermore...
Please taylor is more poetic. Listen to Ivy
Evermore and folklore have more poetic lines
right i was expecting more
This had so so many missed opportunities with Taylor’s poetic songs
Loved the effort but it’s so apparent and obvious that the one that picked Taylor’s lyrics didn’t do enough research or wasn’t a Swiftie (i mean you don’t have to be a Swiftie in order to get a better result that this). Those lyrics that they picked aren’t even her best works/lyrics. Disappointed ngl i was very excited to watch this lol
Y’all why did you not include any lines from folklore or evermore? Those songs have lines that sound like Shakespearean lines. What a lost opportunity.
taylor's lyrics are compared with shakespeare omg this is amazing u know that-
Not yall choosing some of the weakest taylor swift lyrics. Do this again with lyrics from Evermore and Folklore
there should be a prize for us who got a perfect score
Here you go 🏆
Wow good for this dude Shakespeare! Not everyday that you're compared to Taylor Swift!!
the lakes watched this : 👁️👄👁️
This was so good! So excited to watch the actual show soon. Also love the cast!
We love the cast too! Thanks for watching
@@NationalTheatre Also as someone who wants to get into the industry of theatre in the future I would love more top tips videos in the future if it is possible but I love all your content :)
When you realise that Taylor Swift's lyrics r more poetic than Shakespeare's lines
bruh she has so many better lines for you to choose from
Do a part 2 but all of the lines are super intricate and could confuse people more. So this one is the basic video and then the next is a pro version.
As a MASSIVE Taylor fan. This was easy, and I enjoyed it.
What is this? You didn’t even asked lyrics from evermore and folklore. I suggest round two! 😆
Taylor has lines like:
- I'll meet you where the spirit meets the bones, in a fate forgotten land
- I had a feeling so peculiar, that this pain would be for evermore
- Look at this godforsaken mess that you made me
- And so the battleships will sink beneath the waves
- Like a figment of my worst intentions
- I get mystified about how this city screams your name
- What should be over burrowed under my skin in heart stopping waves of hurt
- I bathe in cliffside pools with my calamitous love and insurmountable grief
- It's you, the shape of your body is blue
So much material and you chose those petty ones.
loved this!
Thanks!!
Taylor can write Romeo and Juliet but Shakespeare will never be able to write the hit song ME!😞✋
ME!ga hit wbk
Haha
They should’ve used folklore/evermore lyrics, both have Shakespearean styles of writing
For some reason the line "And I snuck in through the garden gate, every night that summer just to seal my fate" sounds very Shakespearian to me. They should've used it as well hahahaa
HOW DID JOSH O'CONNER GET THE ROMEO ONE WRONG LMAOOO
There are so many songs you could have chosen that would have made this really difficult. Kind of disappointing 😔
How y’all not gonna use folklore and evermore lyrics???
Do this again but with lyrics from folklore and evermore
I have two questions:
HAS TAYLOR SWIFT SEEN THIS?
AND ARE THERE MORE OF THIS???
The lines they chose was so lame bye.. Folklore & evermore has so many mind blowing lines
This is so good
