So I rated this album a 7.5 and I have to change it. After listening to this album on repeat for over 24hrs I have to give it a 10/10 now. I fucking love it y’all ♥️ Also... I’m pissed af that Cruel Summer will never be a single 😭
This is the same case with me. After initial listen I was like "what just happened, I'm clueless". But after a few listens I finally understood it and now I love it
folklore is a masterpiece but you know what’s the best part about it... THAT SHE OWNS IT!!! and she released it on her own terms, just the way she wanted and when she wanted! I’m so proud of her and I love her so much 🥺
My favorite album by Taylor is Lover which she also owns. But Folklore is all right. It's not exactly my cup of tea but Folklore isn't bad. Neither is Evermore but they are both ok
Ajay - ✔️ Dante - ✔️ Ashley - ✔️ Maya - Edit: for everyone who doesn’t know who maya is her name on yt, insta, and twitter is kioshi warrior, but her real name is maya.
theory: track 5, my tears ricochet, is about her leaving big machine. she says "i didn't have it in me to go in grace" which might reference the huge internet drama between her and sc**ter br**n. "you had to kill me but it killed you just the same" could reference how many people refer to big machine not being as popular now that tay isnt there. and finally "stolen lullabies" i mean that one is pretty self explanitory
Hi, sr for bothering u but would u mind explaining whats the meaning of "i didnt have it in me to go with grace". Im really not good at English but i want to understand every line of this song.
Akashi Nguyễn it means she was too upset to leave in a kind/nice way, she wanted to tell the world what her old music producers did to her and make sure it didn’t happen to someone else again. so when she left the company, she didn’t go with grace, or with kindness. instead she made a big deal because of how hurt she was and everything they took from her (they own and control 6 out of her 8 albums)
Dante, I just wanted you to know that since folklore dropped, I have been WAITING and stalking your youtube channel waiting for your reaction. YOU are my all time favorite youtuber to watch react to Taylor. (Also love Lauren and the fact that you guys are friends, that makes me heart so so happy!) You make me LAUGH OUT LOUD so so so so so so many times! Thanks for bringing me so much joy!
I've been waiting for this since she announced it! Also, the love triangle between Cardigan (Betty's point of view), Betty (James' point of view), and August (the POV of the girl James cheated with) is incredible and leaves us no choice but to stan Ms. Taylor Swift.
Elizabeth Nah, it really feels like it’s “august.” Not only does “illicit affairs” sound like it’s between a more adult couple (perhaps with an age gap), but lyrics from “august” directly parallel what James says in “betty,” like “remember when I pulled up and said ‘get in the car’” and when she sings about how their romance will disappear when they go back to school after summer. Overall, “august” is a better match.
“One sip for Jesus “ .. you’re hilarious 😂 I’ve had this album on repeat since it came out , it makes me think of fall , and brings a sense of peace that I haven’t felt in a while .
Betty is James POV Cardigan is Bettys POV August is the 3rd party's POV Cobblestones Cardigan Kissing in cars Pulling up car Get in the car Front porch Those are some lyrics that ties them all together. ❤❤❤❤❤
when will reactors understand that everything is present in her LYRICS and not the PRODUCTION when you understand her lyrics and then listen to the music then you'll understand EVERY TAYLOR SWIFT song
The vocals on this album are some of her best I can't wait to hear all her old songs reimagined and sung with her incredible sound!!! Mad woman is literally the epitome of gasloghting and how every one pushed her to the edge and then wondered why she was so angry and upset. It makes me so sad to think that she'll never be able to heal from that situation. Imagine being right and screaming it at the top of ur lungs and ppl tell u shut up because they don't believes you??? Horrible. Invisible strings is beautifully written love song. everything about it just makes me so happy! Taylor is truly is loveeee and we loveee to see her happy. Betty feels like old school taylor vibes. This entire album was a vibe and a mood to be in. When ppl say this doesn't feel organic sis have u listened to lover, the Archer or safe and sound? This was definitely the right step
*TBH Dante, you are the first one I searched on YT to see if u have reaction vid of Taytay but I see that u haven't post yet so I just watched others reaction vid. And now u uploaded ur reaction, I SCREAMED AND QUICKLY CLICK UR VID. Ughh ur the one that I was waiting for to react. Thankyou, stay safe and LAVYAH BISH!
Honestly I was expecting a pop album but I have realized that artists need a change and experiment with music! And after listening to the album I’m in love with it. 2020 has been a rough year so far and it wouldn’t have been okay for an artist to just release a full on pop album even though some are. I’m happy she’s trying new music.
When you said "I'm listening daddy" as Bon Iver kept singing at 14:29 as you were also using everyone's favorite thing you do when you react to album songs your fan😂😂😄😄😆😆🤣🤣
I couldn't wait to watch your reaction. I kept checking youtube for it, and you did not let me down! I completely agree the album grows and grows on you with each listen.
When Reputation released , I wanted I did something bad music video but she released lover After she released lover , i wanted cruel summer to be singles but she released folklore
I loved it! At the first listening I confess that I was also waiting for the bop. It's a new Taylor era. This whole album is a masterpiece! I've been listening to it unstoppably. Love you Dante! 💖
dante there whole album is the journey and folklore story of taylor house in the rhode island. it's history from rebekah also known as betty and the love triangle that going on the house before rebekah dies 50 yrs ago. and the story continue until taylor buy the house into taylor journey loving joe. so basically the album is about a forgotten folklore of her house.
First listening: soothing, relaxing. After listening on repeat: favourite song - Exile! The one I cannot listen to anymore because it makes me cry like a baby. 10/10
when i say i FKN LAUGHED OUT LOUD - that deep voice + YASSSS! 14:05 - girl, SAME! "i'm listening Daddy..." 33:06 - loses his SHIT - omfg! has ONE sip for JESUS, then this happens - 36:00 - WOAH! 36:46 - when the alcohol starts to kick in! 38:55 - another SIP for JESUS! "My girl said FUCK!" 40:00 - plays the song on permanent REPEAT! 44:00 - "we drink when she cusses IN THIS HOUSE!" - when I tell ya I got SMASHED yesterday while listening to this album on REPEAT! 46:26 - all drinking rules have been suspended < depressed
"Exile" is another break-up song on the album after "The 1". This time it tells a story of former lovers which meet after the end of their relationship which they tried to make it work but it eventually crumbled despite all of their efforts.
Watched Lauren's reaction, then Positively Steven's, and now Dante's. Love all of you guys. Your takes are different and the way you express your excitement just makes me happy. I listened to the album for a few days before hitting the reactions.
The following came from a folklore discussion thread. Basically the writer of this thread interpreted this album as a folk story about the history behind the last owner of her rhode Island house (as told in three parts) ----------------- THE AFFAIR august: basically the beginning of the affair Lyrics to support this claim: "Whispers of "Are you sure?" "Never have I ever before" "you weren't mine to lose, oh" mirrorball: describing details of things they did Lyrics to support this claim: "I'll show you every version of yourself tonight" "hush, when no one is around, my dear? you'll find me on my tallest tip-toe" Betty: return to the school year (it's senior year for them) and James finds out Betty knows about the affair and tries to apologize. Lyrics to support this claim: "About why you switched your homeroom but/ I think it's cause of me" "The worst thing that I ever did/ Was what I did to you" "If I told you it was just a summer thing?/ I'm only seventeen, i don't know anything" cardigan: Betty's reaction to the affair, she doesn't take it well Lyrics to support this claim: "chase two girls, lose the one" "When you are young, they assume you know nothing" "Peter losing Wendy, I/ I knew you/ leavin' like a father" illicit affair: the mistress is recounting the affair from her point of view Lyrics to support this claim: "Make sure nobody sees you leave" "What started in beautiful rooms/ End with meetings in parking lots" "So you leave no trace behind" exile: Betty and James singing to one another as Betty officially ends their relationship Lyrics to support this claim: "I'm not your problem anymore" "We always walked a very thin line" "I think I've seen this film before/And I didn't like the ending" the 1: Betty has told herself she is over James and is trying to move on Lyrics to support this claim: "And if you ever bleed, you're never gonna grow/And it's alright now" "It would've been you/ But it would've been fun/if you would've been the one" "you know the greatest loves of all time are over know" --------------------- JAME'S ARCH this is me trying: James has been desperately trying to make things right with Betty but it's not working, at this point it seems that they've graduated high school Lyrics to support this claim: " I've been having a hard time adjusting" "I have a lot of regrets about that" "I just wanted you to know that this is me trying" peace: James realizes that the only way for both him and Betty to find peace is to leave town, so he joins the army (keep in mind if this story aligns with taylor's life, we can assume that the story of Betty & Jame took place early-mid 1900's) Lyrics to support this claim: "Our coming-of-age has come and gone/Suddenly this summer, it's clear' "But I would die for you in secret" "Sit with you in the trenches" epiphany: James dies in battle Lyrics to support this claim: "Keep your helmet, keep your life, son/ Just a flesh wound, here's your rifle" "With you i serve, with you I fall down" "Just one single glimpse of relief/ To make some sense of what you've seen" my tears ricochet: Jame's funeral Lyrics to support this claim: "I didn't have it in myself to go with grace" "And if I'm dead to you, why are you at my wake?" "You had to kill me, but it killed you just the same" hoax: Betty goes crazy after not being able to process Jame's death Lyrics to support this claim: "This has broken me down/My twisted knife" "Stood on the cliffside screaming, "Give me a reason" "My kingdom come undone" --------------------- AFTERMATH madwoman: Betty leaves town and moves to Rhode island Lyrics to support this claim: "What a shame she went mad/No one likes a mad woman/You made her like that" *Context of her moving to Rhode Island comes from the last great american dynasty seven: Taylor Swift is born in Pennsylvania and experiences her childhood lyrics to support this claim: "But I, I was high in the sky/ With pennsylvania under me" "Sweet tea in the summer" "Passed down like a folk songs (basically saying this whole album is a folk story about the history of her Rhode Island house) invisible string: Taylor is talking about her adult life and her relationship with Joe Alwyn. Also a reference to how she and Betty/James are all unknowingly connected Lyrics to support this claim: "I used to think I would meet somebody there" "All along there was some/Invisible string/Tying you to me" the last great american dynasty: Betty is now dead and Taylor buys the Rhode Island home that Betty lived in Lyrics to support this claim: "Rebekah (Betty) gave up on the Rhode Island set forever" "There goes the most shameless woman this town has ever seen/She had a marvelous time ruining everything" "Fifty years is a long time/Free of woman with madness, their men and bad habits/And then it was bought by me"
I just wanted you to know that as soon as I listened to the album I searched for your reaction! Thank you for not disappointing!!! Also your explanation about this album being meant to chill, relax, and listen! I feel the same way :)
And epiphany is about her grandfather going to war aka ‘ with you I serve with you I fall down’ and people also think it’s about the frontline workers in the coronavirus aka ‘hold your hand through plastic now’
The calm music is my fav type of music 💜 Taylor released the album of my dreams 😭💜! Love every song 💜! FOLKLORE IS A MASTERPIECE , I can't stop listening 😭💜💜💜
My favorite part of this video (even tho I haven’t watched the whole thing yet) is the dance you did in the middle of the last great American dynasty!!! 😂😂😂😂

Dante D'Angelo She said "shit" from The 1, listen to it again.
This album with headphones is a whole experience
This is the same case with me. After initial listen I was like "what just happened, I'm clueless". But after a few listens I finally understood it and now I love it
Baby she actually said "Shit"

This album is the best. She really did her thing.
So true.
folklore is a masterpiece but you know what’s the best part about it... THAT SHE OWNS IT!!! and she released it on her own terms, just the way she wanted and when she wanted! I’m so proud of her and I love her so much 🥺
She not only owns it, she didn't even tell her label she was recording anything until she was about to drop the album 😆
My favorite album by Taylor is Lover which she also owns. But Folklore is all right. It's not exactly my cup of tea but Folklore isn't bad. Neither is Evermore but they are both ok
Lover, folklore and evermore are her 3 best albums and also the ones she owns
Originally I felt uncertain about this album, however, when I listened to it several times, I also give it 10/10. It is so bloody good.
@Dante D'Angelo Thanks for your hard work, I have been enjoying your Taylor Swift reactions over the years. I made sure to subscribe this time.
Cardigan
Tlgad
Mirrorball
Exile
August
Betty
Is the first songs caught my attention
Dante thinking she said I’m on some new ship instead of new shit killed me 😂☠️
Samme🤣😂
Taylor Swift's Genre:
Alternative - Folklore
Pop - 1989, reputation, Lover
Country - TS, Fearless, Speak Now, Red. ✨
Stan a true Queen of Explorer 😭
Add up evermore ❤️
Exile is the best collab she has ever done... change my mind
THE truth Facts, Statement!
Yeah I think it just beats out Everything has Changed
The last time though
Hoàng Nghĩa Hiếu the last time walked so exile could run
Exile is my number one collab, but The Last Time is my number two, both of those songs crush me
swifties...can someone PLEASE make a compilation video of everyone reacting to bon iver's part in exile
basically Taylor gave us this album for sleep & chill, and i'm here for it🍷
And cry
falling asleep to cardigan slaps

Your reaction to Bon Iver’s voice is cracking me up 🤣🤣🤣
*mirrorball plays for 1 second* dante: oh mawy gawd. im thinkinn of christmasth!
Lmfao stooooop 😫😂😂
Honestly, that was me tho. I instantly thought it would be perfect for Christmas time
Dante D'Angelo omg i cannot believe you just saw that comment 😂😂
I can see Mirrorball being played as a slow song at Prom. But in The 1, she did say "shit" not "ship" 😂
theory: track 5, my tears ricochet, is about her leaving big machine. she says "i didn't have it in me to go in grace" which might reference the huge internet drama between her and sc**ter br**n. "you had to kill me but it killed you just the same" could reference how many people refer to big machine not being as popular now that tay isnt there. and finally "stolen lullabies" i mean that one is pretty self explanitory
100%!!
I feel like the "break up" songs (mostly hoax) are about this and not Joe.
Hi, sr for bothering u but would u mind explaining whats the meaning of "i didnt have it in me to go with grace". Im really not good at English but i want to understand every line of this song.
Akashi Nguyễn it means she was too upset to leave in a kind/nice way, she wanted to tell the world what her old music producers did to her and make sure it didn’t happen to someone else again. so when she left the company, she didn’t go with grace, or with kindness. instead she made a big deal because of how hurt she was and everything they took from her (they own and control 6 out of her 8 albums)
@@jasminecontile6906 thank u sm. I really appreciate that
Dante there will be song called The Lakes on the deluxe album and vinyl avaliable on her website.
Dante, I just wanted you to know that since folklore dropped, I have been WAITING and stalking your youtube channel waiting for your reaction. YOU are my all time favorite youtuber to watch react to Taylor. (Also love Lauren and the fact that you guys are friends, that makes me heart so so happy!) You make me LAUGH OUT LOUD so so so so so so many times! Thanks for bringing me so much joy!
after listen to mad woman and betty the "I'm on some new shit" line seems so mild haha
I love your specification in “August”. “I feel like country, but not like it’s country music, but like I’m in the country”. EXACTLY!!
The whole album is a masterpiece but my favorites were Exile and Cardigan
True masterpiece 💯
Daddy fuck me up
From country to pop and now alternative. Next thing we know she’s conquering kpop lol
😂 😂 😂 😂 Kpop
alex ssali she better venture in r&b
We need alt rock Tay before, à la State of Grace
Nooo, we need a punk rock album! Lol
Fuck no
I've been waiting for this since she announced it!
Also, the love triangle between Cardigan (Betty's point of view), Betty (James' point of view), and August (the POV of the girl James cheated with) is incredible and leaves us no choice but to stan Ms. Taylor Swift.
I thought Illicit Affair was POV of the girl who cheats w James
@@mehlev yeah I thought it too
Elizabeth Nah, it really feels like it’s “august.” Not only does “illicit affairs” sound like it’s between a more adult couple (perhaps with an age gap), but lyrics from “august” directly parallel what James says in “betty,” like “remember when I pulled up and said ‘get in the car’” and when she sings about how their romance will disappear when they go back to school after summer.

IT’S GENIUS STORYTELLING YES!
“One sip for Jesus “ .. you’re hilarious 😂 I’ve had this album on repeat since it came out , it makes me think of fall , and brings a sense of peace that I haven’t felt in a while .
Betty is James POV
Cardigan is Bettys POV
August is the 3rd party's POV
Cobblestones
Cardigan
Kissing in cars
Pulling up car
Get in the car
Front porch
Those are some lyrics that ties them all together. ❤❤❤❤❤
WE MISSED YOU DANTE😭
Epiphany is about her grandfather's experience in the war and about the corona virus. I cry every time.
when will reactors understand that everything is present in her LYRICS and not the PRODUCTION when you understand her lyrics and then listen to the music then you'll understand EVERY TAYLOR SWIFT song
Seriously I’m always paying attention to her lyrics as my priority and just her storytelling, like I feel like that’s what makes her her!
This is the absolute truth.
Mariah Storie EXACTLY!!
This
The vocals on this album are some of her best I can't wait to hear all her old songs reimagined and sung with her incredible sound!!!
Mad woman is literally the epitome of gasloghting and how every one pushed her to the edge and then wondered why she was so angry and upset. It makes me so sad to think that she'll never be able to heal from that situation. Imagine being right and screaming it at the top of ur lungs and ppl tell u shut up because they don't believes you??? Horrible.
Invisible strings is beautifully written love song. everything about it just makes me so happy! Taylor is truly is loveeee and we loveee to see her happy.
Betty feels like old school taylor vibes.
This entire album was a vibe and a mood to be in. When ppl say this doesn't feel organic sis have u listened to lover, the Archer or safe and sound? This was definitely the right step
It’s my birthday! such a wonderful gift from you dante!
I’ve been playing folklore over and over since it’s release and I can’t get enough of it.

Finally, you're back.
Exile is one of her best songs ever.
I agree with you
Omg ur from my 102 English class!!
When Mine started playing I lost my shit ahahahahah

13:36 mine jumped out from nowhere claiming the recognition she deserves
The following came from a folklore discussion thread. Basically the writer of this thread interpreted this album as a folk story about the history behind the last owner of her rhode Island house (as told in three parts)
-----------------

"hush, when no one is around, my dear? you'll find me on my tallest tip-toe"
Betty: return to the school year (it's senior year for them) and James finds out Betty knows about the affair and tries to apologize.
Lyrics to support this claim:
"About why you switched your homeroom but/ I think it's cause of me"
"The worst thing that I ever did/ Was what I did to you"
"If I told you it was just a summer thing?/ I'm only seventeen, i don't know anything"

"When you are young, they assume you know nothing"

Lyrics to support this claim:
"I'm not your problem anymore"
"We always walked a very thin line"
"I think I've seen this film before/And I didn't like the ending"
the 1: Betty has told herself she is over James and is trying to move on
Lyrics to support this claim:
"And if you ever bleed, you're never gonna grow/And it's alright now"

JAME'S ARCH
this is me trying: James has been desperately trying to make things right with Betty but it's not working, at this point it seems that they've graduated high school
Lyrics to support this claim:
" I've been having a hard time adjusting"
"I have a lot of regrets about that"
"I just wanted you to know that this is me trying"
peace: James realizes that the only way for both him and Betty to find peace is to leave town, so he joins the army (keep in mind if this story aligns with taylor's life, we can assume that the story of Betty & Jame took place early-mid 1900's)
Lyrics to support this claim:
"Our coming-of-age has come and gone/Suddenly this summer, it's clear'
"But I would die for you in secret"
"Sit with you in the trenches"
epiphany: James dies in battle
Lyrics to support this claim:
"Keep your helmet, keep your life, son/ Just a flesh wound, here's your rifle"
"With you i serve, with you I fall down"
"Just one single glimpse of relief/ To make some sense of what you've seen"
my tears ricochet: Jame's funeral
Lyrics to support this claim:
"I didn't have it in myself to go with grace"
"And if I'm dead to you, why are you at my wake?"
"You had to kill me, but it killed you just the same"
hoax: Betty goes crazy after not being able to process Jame's death
Lyrics to support this claim:
"This has broken me down/My twisted knife"
"Stood on the cliffside screaming, "Give me a reason"
"My kingdom come undone"
---------------------
AFTERMATH
madwoman: Betty leaves town and moves to Rhode island
Lyrics to support this claim:
"What a shame she went mad/No one likes a mad woman/You made her like that"
*Context of her moving to Rhode Island comes from the last great american dynasty
seven: Taylor Swift is born in Pennsylvania and experiences her childhood
lyrics to support this claim:
"But I, I was high in the sky/ With pennsylvania under me"
"Sweet tea in the summer"
"Passed down like a folk songs (basically saying this whole album is a folk story about the history of her Rhode Island house)
invisible string: Taylor is talking about her adult life and her relationship with Joe Alwyn. Also a reference to how she and Betty/James are all unknowingly connected
Lyrics to support this claim:
"I used to think I would meet somebody there"
"All along there was some/Invisible string/Tying you to me"
the last great american dynasty: Betty is now dead and Taylor buys the Rhode Island home that Betty lived in
Lyrics to support this claim:
"Rebekah (Betty) gave up on the Rhode Island set forever"
"There goes the most shameless woman this town has ever seen/She had a marvelous time ruining everything"
"Fifty years is a long time/Free of woman with madness, their men and bad habits/And then it was bought by me"

Ok so billie is putting out a new song next Thursday and it’s called “ my future “ reaction maybe?
And epiphany is about her grandfather going to war aka ‘ with you I serve with you I fall down’ and people also think it’s about the frontline workers in the coronavirus aka ‘hold your hand through plastic now’
He's like the male version of AJayll
There’s also one more track coming out on the deluxes when they release on August 7th called ‘the lakes’ :)
