My initial reaction to I Bet You Think About Me was similar to yours, but honestly… seeing the music video now… I think it’s Taylor being cheeky and playing the role that she was cast in by either how people (JG) saw her or how the country industry wanted her to be. Kind of like she did with Blank Space.
Exactly! He thought he was so much better because she was "country" and so that meant she wasn't as rich, wasn't as cultured, wasn't as smart. It's a joke, her playing up the stereotypes ppl forced her into
Forever Winter is NOT about Jake. She had a VERY close friend commit suicide the week Speak Now dropped, Forever Winter was posthumously begging him not to.
The thing is, you need to know a lot about Jake Gyllenhaal to understand I Bet You Think About Me and that no, it was no satire she really was feeling that way when they were dating. Yes, you are right that Taylor didn't grow up poor by any stretch of the imagination, but Jake was quite literally Hollywood royalty. She was upper middle class growing up but he was rich RICH growing up, he grew up in Beverly Hills and his mother was an actress that had been nominated to an Oscar and then was a successful movie producer, she was besties with Jamie Lee Curtis who called herself "Jake's Hollywood godmother" because she was the one who introduced him and his older sister to the movie scene (yep nepotism at its finest) and he even mentioned in an interview that the PAUL NEWMAN taught him how to drive. And on his father's part well, his family was literally swedish aristocracy (LITERALLY related to the current royal family). Meanwhile, when Taylor dated him was during the autumn that she was releasing Speak Now, and while yes she was the new hot thing that had just won several Grammys, she only had two albums out and was a young country singer that had never experienced that level of VIP access to the upper class circles, as she puts it. So yeah while she has never been poor I do believe the daughter of a banker and a stay at home mum would have felt intimidated visiting California with him (where they went together before she did her Ellen interview) and seeing the level of opulence he grew up with, and if his family's inner circle of friendships growing up included people like Paul Newman and Jamie Lee Curtis I very much doubt they would have felt super impressed with a young Taylor with only two albums out at the moment she visited (which was right before Speak Now)
Plus Jake was the one who had the keychain that said "fuck the patriarchy" I'm so annoyed by people still to this day using that as a way to prove Taylor didn't write this song back then
omg i love how real you are with your opinion and not just 100 p supporting everything taylor does no matter what - it's a way more fun and unique watch xx
@@jimbob2427 There's a video of her accepting a songwriting award where she said that it was an extremely emotional week for her because she had just released an album (Speak Now) and also because she had a very close friend that she used to send every single song she wrote to first, and she had sung at his funeral the day before. Forever Winter is about suicide.
FINALLY Some respect is put on Run's name 😭😭😭 I feel like everyone brushed past it but it's sooo good ??? Like the imagery of it all, the tempo, the vocals, the way they respond to each other whattt this is what Taylor Swift's collabs with male singers is all about !!
thank you for being so honest with your reviews of her re-recorded songs because honesty is why I’m here watching you right now so please don’t ever stop. Love you!
i’m terrified of the reputation recording. that’s probably her most complex album production wise. Like they contain so many tiny tiny details like if she fucks up king of my heart i’m gonna fight
@@GabrielFerreira-ue8hs idk listen to the backing of so it goes, there’s so many tiny tiny details, like the chain switches every time, and there’s a little bubble effect idk i’m just worried
Coming straight from the 1989 TV reaction video just to see your reaction to the Max Martin tragedies 🤣🤣🤣 “As anticipated, a giant snooze fest” got me WHEEZING
I definitely agree, I don't think this 10 minute version of all too well was written in 2011, I think she had a VERY rough 15 minute work tape that she revisited while recording folklore/evermore, and pieced some unused lyrics together with new lyrics to form this new version. I mean the last 3 minutes are a dead giveaway of that - the lyrics and melodies are NOT something she was writing 10 years ago. But it's such a masterful piece of art. Like how cool would it be if another artist like katy perry or lady gaga or beyonce went back to a song they wrote 10 years ago and rewrote it to fit their current era 🥲💞
What I think is: she had a “10 minute” song that did NOT sound like that at all in the past and now she’s even more talented than she was she decided to make this masterpiece that we just heard… especially the end of the song really reminds me of the “Folklore” style, so I do believe the inicial song was longer, but I pretty sure she changed some of the lyrics. The “I was never good at telling jokes but the punch line goes: I’ll get older but your lovers stay my age” she couldn’t have written this verse back in the day… only nowdays. But whatever: the song is just * PERFECTION *
More to the point, Jake Gyllenhal has dated women younger and OLDER than him. It's only his current girlfriend that's much younger than him, so no, this was definitely not always written. Although everyone at first listen always misunderstood the "fuck the patriarchy" line. It's totally possible Jake Gyllenhal had a fuck the patriarchy keychain in 20-whatever
i think what happened is that all too well used to be around 8 minutes which, to be fair, is closer to 10 than it is to 3, or even 5 which is how long it ended up being. she mentioned how it used to be “like 10 minutes long” and everyone kinda ran with the “ten minute version” thing so she felt pressured to make it at least 10 minutes. i think the 10 min version we did get was the original “10 minute version”, ending at the part before “and i was never good at telling jokes”. that part is retrospective and obviously couldn’t have written that part AT 21/22. in the short film we see sadie as taylor for the entire time EXCEPT when that part of the song comes on, now cutting to older, wiser, ginger taylor, where she’s telling her all too well story in the form of a book/memoir and not a song. this to me feels very intentional, like ‘hey this is my point of view on it now’. the runtime obviously still wasn’t 10 minutes so she created a long outro which just so happens to fit the vibe and intensity of the song. anyway sorry for that novel
THANK YOU it’s so irritating to me when ppl say the F the Patriarchy keychain wasn’t real. Feels like a real lack of historical context. Just bc something wasn’t a part of the mainstream convo doesn’t mean no one knew abt it.
When you said ‘her vocal is louder than the track’ that is my biggest note of this album: she sounds sooo close to the mic in every song, it didn’t need to be that way, and i hope she dials back literally going forward
To me on the original red her vocals were too low, especially in all too well during the bridge it feels like her voice is just in the same volume of the instruments and it kinda drowns out her voice. It basically flipped
idk if someone said this already but Forever Winter is about Jeff Lang, Taylor's friend who killed himself around the time of Speak Now's release. She sang at his funeral and if you watch her accepting the 2010 BMI songwriting award, she talks about it and you can really see how much that shook her.
Stan blondie but you can’t deny that yes 100% correct, she didn’t take her time with some of the songs. I know for a fact she didn’t considering some of the vocals were recorded in Belfast, and it was only 3 months before the album came out that she was there. It’s funny because folklore was an album where all the creators were apart but you’d never think it, but I’ve a gut feeling she probably did vocals and sent them off to someone who was producing.
I was trying to Mastermind a comment cause you made so many valid points, hurt my feelings, and had me cry laughing multiple times. So glad I found you to binge (another Midnights' blessing)!!! You are Gorgeous and elegant. You are a vibe, the moment, and an aesthetic mood ✨
I'm actually a new swiftie, it was after evermore when I got into Taylor Swift. I listened to Red for the first time when Taylor's Version was released and I always thought "Girl At Home" should've had a country song production rather than electropop. It was only after your video that I realised there actually IS one existing since long before😭 Thanks Zach.
Oh my goodness the fact that Message In A Bottle is my new favorite bop and that I actually love the Girl At Home Remake (although it sounds more like the Willow Remix...)- I guess these songs are really dividing the fandom and I love seeing it
In "I Bet You Think About Me" ...When she talks about the farm, and that he on the other hand was this rich man, etc... and you think it's "delusional writing" I don't think she's writing what she actually thinks, but about what he made her feel, like she was this little country girl, and that he was better than her, from the music he likes to the city he's from, etc. He (Jake) was always condescending towards her and her music, her age, her jokes, her lyrics, everything.
For Girl at Home I had the same reaction and I even said I wouldn’t listen to Taylor’s Version of it however the song is come around for me. I still do think the original is 100% better however I think she tried to do a 1989 Version of Girl at Home like she did with Love Story and maybe she originally wanted it like this (I don’t see her wanting it that way) and Scott wouldn’t let her as it was to synth pop which led it to being a country song.
Love someone, especially the biggest swiftie I know, loving "The last time". Is my second favorite song of Taylor EVER (first is ATWTM, i'm basic, sue me). I absolutely adore this song, the lyrics, the duet. You're so right, is better than Exile, even if I love this song too. As always, love your honesty, is so refreshing. Keep doing the awesome work!
Unpopular opinion: I love the new Girl at Home (as well as the original). It's so fun and brings a unique life to a song that kinda blends in with other (better) stuff on Red (I Almost Do, ATW, SBT, etc), which was the issue with the original. And being the closing song on the deluxe edition (not including SoG acoustic, which I think is fair considering it's just another arrangement of a song already on the album), it seemingly marks a direct line between Red and 1989 in sound.
I didn't listen to the original of that song (didn't have the deluxe). I went back and...yeah the original is boring compared. I don't like EDM usually and yet it brings so much to that song. Like they're speaking to each other in a club in the new version. Gives the song a proper setting.
Maybe it's really unpopular but the original makes me sleep while the new one can make me dance to it. This is also the one that was supposed to be pop but maybe a specific man told her to make it more country, that's why the old one sound kinda lame to me
Yours and Madelines opinions are the only swifty opinions I care about cause y’all are ALWAYS right!!! Thank you for your service in critiquing I Bet You Think About Me cause no one else is talking about it!!!!!! Taylor is so ugh sometimes 😅
I loved every song, no real complaints. The “we-EE” doesn’t bother me, if anything I like it more! As a fellow Holy Ground fan, this rerecording wasn’t too upsetting for me, but I prefer the original a tiny bit, although I can settle for it. HOWEVER. Holy Ground TV’s final “part” of the song has subtle high pitched minor piano sounds and while I don’t really mind too much, it is kinda distracting. Girl At Home is forever improved, period. Going from the worst song on Red to being middle tier just because of epic production change? Yes PLEASE!!! Kinda unfortunate that you didn’t like Girl At Home TV, I think she allowed herself to change it up because she knew nobody really liked it before.
@@JackToTheA1 I thought the original Girl at Home was charming/cute, anti-feminist lyrics aside. The re recorded version is really really different. It would take me a long time to get used to the new production, and I really don’t think I can be bothered.
@@theswiftologist yeah i also prefer the new girl at home bc it embraces how bad it is lol. I really do not like that song. I think it should’ve gone just back in the vault for Red TV. Like give us the new vault tracks, but also put some of the original tracks back in vault and throw away the key.
Better Man was the one I was most excited for. When I found out she wrote it I was like, “Um Taylor, where’s your version girl?” I like her version better than the LBT one.
I listened same order as you, so I thought by the time we got to Girl At Home we were in the homestretch and safe territory. I thought my headphones had broke at first.
thanks, finally a person who understands exactly how i felt after listening IKYWT, it sounds sooo different from the original. i like the original way better. However, i loved the other ones.
I find it so funny that even though I know you're being emotional with her but you also heard the birthday shenanigans in atwtmv and went "Womp Womp." crazy editing cuz i got to the IKYWT part. garage band was quite the flashback thank you
I like your reaction because its critical and not just praising the hell out of it unlike the other reaction youtubers. Also, I do think that ATW 10 Minute Version is written later/now because I don't think Taylor has achieved that kind of layered songwriting yet in 2012.
My initial reaction when i heard We Are Never... was "She needs to redo this, unacceptable... just, no". That high-pitched "WeeEE" makes me cringe and I try to laugh it off.😅 But loved most of the other rerecords on the album!
THANK YOU FOR THE GIRL AT HOME REACTION! i'm literally in tears from laughing so much. I came in expecting you hating ALL the songs and seeing you liked some of them made me a happy, cause it's sucks that you're favorite album gets ruined. so I hoped you at least will enjoy some and this won't ruin EVERYTHING for you on Red. but yeah, there are some atrocities on this re-recording. i'm worried for my baby Speak Now (album) and reputation re-recording. cause she ruined a lot on Fearless TV as well. My biggest issue is why the fuck they don't use real instruments??? Jack and Aaron how to play guitar. like why are they using these synths on songs that used guitars?? WHY?!?! Your reaction to Message In A Bottle!!! wow. so funny. this song is so bad. it's literally a Disney song. "she's serving singing...... but nothing else" LOL I actually like I Bet You Think About Me cause Taylor said in a radio interview that they wrote it as supposed to be a joke and not that seriously. but your reaction is priceless to the lyrics of gated communited and such. so funny. Yes! so happy you liked 'The Very First Night' it is generic but it's more fun than Message In A Bottle. oohhh you're right, this one could easily replace Stay Stay Stay. you're so right!! Holy Ground doesn't sound the same. it sounds slower! All in all I agree with you. the re-recordings of the old songs sound unfinished. like something missing with the production AND layered vocals. there aren't any layered vocals! it happened in Fearless TV as well with You Belong With Me. her vocals sound so upfront. like she recorded them so close to the mic. so it seems she ruins her biggest hits. I wonder if the changes in the beginning of the songs are so that Big Machine wouldn't be able to claim they did a copycat of the master recordings...
You NEED to break down that "Olivia Rodrigo has the blueprint and Taylor Swift doesn't like it" comment because I think I agree with you but I can't explain why I feel like that is the case.
I agree with you in that i don't think she necessarily had the entirety of the atw 10 minute version made in 2010/11 but I do think a lot of it was written in the way she says. I think that Taylor was much more image-conscious then and while she might've written a lot of this at the time, maybe didn't feel that she could use all of it. I mean she was 21... we saw her as a saint and for the most part I'm sure she was. But that's how she wanted to be seen. She definitely could've still written 'fuck the patriarchy' for example.
I do think the last verse was written now. It seems like it's more of a reflection on the relationship from years later. She's saying that even after all this time she remembers the way he made her feel
I was honestly surprised by your take on. I bet you think about me. For me, honestly. It's one of my favorite songs. So kind of like, how in blank space she wrote about the media character. I think I bet you still think about me is her writing from the character debut Taylor Swift, not the real Taylor Swift.
combing through old videos while i'm at work and can i just say. 1. the red flannel works for you 2. drop the candle info pleaseeee 3. the interior decor is so pinterest fall vibes especially with the red cd, the flowers and the candles etc, i love it!!!
how can you doubt she wrote those lyrics during that time when songs like red, treacherous, state of grace, og all too well were released during those times. the songwriting on them is literally on the same level if not superior.
The real tea I got from ATW10min was that Gyllenhaal was the first boyfriend Scott Swift actually approved of. And then he treated her like shit. I think Taylor throwing in ‘fuck the patriarchy’ is her way of unpacking her ongoing dad issues. It’s clear that, as much as she craves approval and adulation from everyone, she especially needs male approval - this is clear from looking at her male vs female friendships and collaborations. I think that this need goes back to wanting to impress her dad and needing more of his approval than she received. Can relate. 😢
@@theswiftologist I’m still working through this train of thought haha. I’m also thinking that what made this breakup especially difficult was that Taylor’s parents were going through their divorce around this time. Taylor would have been working through the reality that her parents’ relationship was not a fairytale she probably once believed it was, as well as competing loyalties to Scott and Andrea, and perhaps feeling some misplaced guilt that Andrea and Taylor touring without Scott contributed to her parents’ relationship breakdown. I also think there might have been some similarities between Scott and Jake, which Taylor would then have had to process. I might be reading too much into some of this. But I think if you connect the dots, we’re getting a much clearer picture as to why this particular relationship fucked her up so much.
I don't think that phrase is said by her, it's implied it's either Jake or the keychain in his car keys, but not her. I think she's describing an argument they had and her probably calling out his bs.
@@wickywicky3811 I think it is because men are controlling when it comes to driving. So when Jake throws her the car keys, it means he doesn’t care if a woman drives the car.
Dude, honestly same thoughts, especially the lyrics in “I Bet You Think About Me”. I don’t get some of the sound and production choices she made with some of the songs, but I really loved what she did with Run, The Very First Night and All Too Well. 💕
Where did people find this info? Has he ever talked about it?? Funny to hear this message from Jake lol )) he is the low key misogynistic dude pretending to be progressive and on trend… „ the cool dude“ 😂
it’s absolutely heartbreaking. it’s my cry song. i absolutely love almost every child i meet and to think of this type of heartbreak makes me want to absolutely crawl into a hole and die
@@theswiftologist it is the funniest fucking song on the record to me now. like yeah WANEGBT has the weeeEEEE's now but GIRL AT HOME??!?!?!? SHES DERANGED SHE SAID DO WHATEVER THE FUCK YOU WANT IDC 😭
Re: “F the Patriarchy,” I fully believe Jake Gyllenhaal was into that in 2012. I was a Gender Studies minor in college in upstate NY in 2006. Also Miss Blondie was writing “ But in your life you'll do things Greater than dating the boy on the football team” and “ Back then I swore I was gonna marry him someday But I realized some bigger dreams of mine” in 2008!!! Feminism was being DISCUSSED! By some!
Also the new version on Girl at home is so much better and makes me want to shake my ass in the air, although now it sound more like a 1989 track I prefer the new one over the og
Okay your reaction to I Bet You Think About Me tells me you don't understand the affluence of the Gyllenhaal family. Taylor isn't calling herself a poor country girl, but her childhood upbringing is leagues below Jake's and that's the contrast she was trying to paint a picture of. Her father had a stable job but they weren't an influential family before she became THE Taylor Swift.
Please don't presume that you know what I do or don't know. I've been doing this longer than you, guaranteed! I understand perfectly well the affluence of Jake's family, HOWEVER, their differences were largely cultural (and social cache) rather than fiscal. Taylor painting herself as a rural country girl is disingenuous, period. No matter who she is comparing herself to. But thanks for trying to school me unnecessarily x
Fuck the patriarchy, I guess. I wouldn’t have any issues with ATW10mins if Ms Swift were just a bit more honest about it’s origins. I feel like it would have been totally fine for her to present it as ATW(extended); a mixture of the original, some lines/verses that were cut, and some reflections on that relationship 10 years on. I’m not sure how she expected us to believe that story she told on Jimmy Fallon, with her essentially writing the whole thing impromptu, in a single 10-15 minute session, and the sound guy happened to record it on a mystery CD never seen or heard of again, until now. I mean really. I noticed her explanation of the 10min version was scaled back quite a bit when she appeared on Seth Myers.
I’m glad I’m not the only one who was suspicious of her describing the birth of the og ATW10 on Fallon. The lyrics in the song point to her writing it more recently.
I’m gonna get killed for this but I liked holy ground. Not as good as the original but I didn’t find it terrible. And the new girl at home is way better than the original in my opinion, it just took a few listens to get what she’s going for
no like deadass what she did to holy ground and girl at home broke the geneva conventions. straight up war crimes!!! loved your reactions though, and am very much looking forward to more of your insight on the podcast!
Ok I have to say I've been kind of bingeing your content lately. Found you like a few weeks ago. I don't even know about Taylor really but you've made me see the light! But I was a swiftie for her, not her music. I'm just gonna be totally honest. But this video turned me around. Especially when you listened to 22. I am now a swiftie through and through haha. I will always remember this day! lol I'm so happy I found your channel
Ok I'm low key getting emotional to her doing "never getting back together" cause I feel like it's her singing for her younger self. I honestly agree with you that it's not 100%, but it's so sweet that she's re-living and hopefully healing a little doing this. No matter how happy we were, we all need to heal our younger self a little
"Why are they so different in the beginning?" So, I think she purposefully put something in all of them so that we can't listen to old songs mixed with new ones lmao I TRIED making a playlist of the new versions but with a few old versions (wanegbt, for example), and they sound like they come from different studios. So I can't pick and choose the versions I like best without a scare jump, I have to commit either to OG or TV. We can't get the best of both worlds. She is so evil.
ok for I bet you think about me I think it was more of a comparison to her and Jake. he grew up as a billionaire in Beverley hills. Was Taylor privileged? absolutely. but I think what she is trying to say is HE was always acting like he was better than she was. not that she was underprivileged. but I do understand how the song comes off the wrong way.
In her interview with Seth Meyers when she was talking about re-releasing her music she said that she lurks online and said “the fans tell me which songs should’ve gotten videos so I’m making the videos” - but we haven’t gotten any music videos to old songs yet, have we?! 😥
She’s talking about all too well there with the short film! I think it’s safe to assume when rep tv comes out there will also be something for getaway car.
@@baileymcbride18 I feel like it that was the case, cruel summer would’ve gotten a music video by now.. like ya I know it’s not a re-recording, but it was just released as a single. A music video would make perfect sense. We’ll see with 1989 but speak now only got a video for a vault track so I think she might’ve been referencing all too well and all too well only.
I actually don't mind when actual swifties criticize Taylor songs, this video was actually hilarious, but when its a non-swiftie talking shit ab a Taylor song I can't take it
You are the smartest person person I have ever seen. I quote, "Treacherous, which, to be honest, is kind of a snooze until the last 2 minutes when it becomes the greatest song ever written." THIS IS BLASPHEMOUS BUT SO SO SO TRUEEE
Red is my favorite album too! I will say the vault songs this time around were REALLY good, and a huge improvement over the kind of garbage songs we got with Fearless TV. (Except Mr. Perfectly fucking Fine)
I agree - the red vault tracks have made me way more excited about the vault tracks to come than I was after hearing the ones from Fearless. Aside from Better Man, I really like The Very First Night- it gave me Haylor vibes (some of the lyrics remind me of OOTW and AYHTDWS). What were your favourite vault tracks?
I became a swiftie the days before this release bc my friend was fangirling over it so I listened to all to well sv and then watchedall too well 10 minute version short film and became a swiftie right then and there, It was rare I was there I remember it all too well
Taylor writing about being a simple farm girl is kind of like Johnny Cash writing song after song about being in jail and on death row. Yes she lived on a Christmas tree farm - there's truth in that but the work she did was pulling the eggs of bugs out of the tree trunks. But she had a whole attic to herself and her house was the envy of every other kid that knew her. But I love her and her way of bending the narrative for artistic license. Taylor is very good at painting herself Relatable.
Sooo I searched for this video after hearing you mention her fucking up Holy Ground in one of your newest videos. I was like IKRRRRR. Holy Ground is in my top 10 and I was SO sad when I listened to the TV. I can't quite put my finger on it but it's different and not for the better. Please everyone go see minute 51:07, his face like 🙄 _nothing can make up for this anymore_ 🙄. It would be interesting to see a musician analysing both versions and explaining how they're different... Anyways, I feel ya sister 🤜🏻🤛🏻 P.S.: I love your videos, thank you for your hard work ❤
My initial reaction to I Bet You Think About Me was similar to yours, but honestly… seeing the music video now… I think it’s Taylor being cheeky and playing the role that she was cast in by either how people (JG) saw her or how the country industry wanted her to be. Kind of like she did with Blank Space.
Exactly, my initial reaction was like oh IBYTAM def walked so Blank Space could run
yeah, she was LARPing the yeehaw country girl that people thought/assumed/groomed her to be
For me it was so obvious she was playing an exaggerated character! Im surprised he took it so seriously. I thought it was hilarious lol
@@jennivee5621 Me too bestie, it was kind of obvious ahahaha he has even said it before, that this is truly her sense of humor
Exactly! He thought he was so much better because she was "country" and so that meant she wasn't as rich, wasn't as cultured, wasn't as smart. It's a joke, her playing up the stereotypes ppl forced her into
Forever Winter is NOT about Jake.
She had a VERY close friend commit suicide the week Speak Now dropped, Forever Winter was posthumously begging him not to.

@@juanluissanjose7535well in the title it does say “Swiftie Historian” soooo

Well we all miss some things.It's not the biggest mistake in the world.
The thing is, you need to know a lot about Jake Gyllenhaal to understand I Bet You Think About Me and that no, it was no satire she really was feeling that way when they were dating.
Yes, you are right that Taylor didn't grow up poor by any stretch of the imagination, but Jake was quite literally Hollywood royalty. She was upper middle class growing up but he was rich RICH growing up, he grew up in Beverly Hills and his mother was an actress that had been nominated to an Oscar and then was a successful movie producer, she was besties with Jamie Lee Curtis who called herself "Jake's Hollywood godmother" because she was the one who introduced him and his older sister to the movie scene (yep nepotism at its finest) and he even mentioned in an interview that the PAUL NEWMAN taught him how to drive. And on his father's part well, his family was literally swedish aristocracy (LITERALLY related to the current royal family).
Meanwhile, when Taylor dated him was during the autumn that she was releasing Speak Now, and while yes she was the new hot thing that had just won several Grammys, she only had two albums out and was a young country singer that had never experienced that level of VIP access to the upper class circles, as she puts it. So yeah while she has never been poor I do believe the daughter of a banker and a stay at home mum would have felt intimidated visiting California with him (where they went together before she did her Ellen interview) and seeing the level of opulence he grew up with, and if his family's inner circle of friendships growing up included people like Paul Newman and Jamie Lee Curtis I very much doubt they would have felt super impressed with a young Taylor with only two albums out at the moment she visited (which was right before Speak Now)
Plus Jake was the one who had the keychain that said "fuck the patriarchy"
I'm so annoyed by people still to this day using that as a way to prove Taylor didn't write this song back then
@@kaceeharrison3715 Same! Especially with the ATW short film showing him throwing HIS keys at her, and that's why the keychain was on the ground.

Not going to lie Nothin’ New might be one my new favorite sad songs. The production is so good. And Phoebe makes it even better.
I swear, it’s amazing. Absolutely loved the blend of Phoebe’s voice.
the devil works hard but the taylor swiftologist works harder
TEAAAAAAAAAAA
Forever Winter is pretty much agreed on by most people it’s about Jeff Lang, her best friend who died from an OD.
@@jimbob2427 There's a video of her accepting a songwriting award where she said that it was an extremely emotional week for her because she had just released an album (Speak Now) and also because she had a very close friend that she used to send every single song she wrote to first, and she had sung at his funeral the day before. Forever Winter is about suicide.
FINALLY Some respect is put on Run's name 😭😭😭 I feel like everyone brushed past it but it's sooo good ??? Like the imagery of it all, the tempo, the vocals, the way they respond to each other whattt this is what Taylor Swift's collabs with male singers is all about !!

Same here!!!
thank you for being so honest with your reviews of her re-recorded songs because honesty is why I’m here watching you right now so please don’t ever stop. Love you!
i’m terrified of the reputation recording. that’s probably her most complex album production wise. Like they contain so many tiny tiny details like if she fucks up king of my heart i’m gonna fight
at least she’ll be able to have jack as the og producer which means she should hopefully be able to do it almost note for note
Most songs on that album have the same chord progression, same synth piano played by Jack and vocoder.
same with 1989. In fact, especially 1989. I hope Max Martin will be producing those songs because if he won't i don't know how messy it could all get
@@myblood8622 I think the Elvira credit on girl at home is taylor signifying that she will take the lead on some tracks in Max's absence.

Omg you worked so hard to give this full album reaction to us in less than a day!
i'm literally cross eyed now but ENJOY!
after listening to the album I was waiting for you to upload it in a couple of days BUT YOU POSTED IT TODAY????? I stan
I have to give the swifties what they deserve
Apparently, Forever Winter is about a friend that committed suicide. Can't remember the name but she mentioned him in an award acceptance speech.
jeff lang, and i believe it was a speak now award she won
Coming straight from the 1989 TV reaction video just to see your reaction to the Max Martin tragedies 🤣🤣🤣
“As anticipated, a giant snooze fest” got me WHEEZING
I definitely agree, I don't think this 10 minute version of all too well was written in 2011, I think she had a VERY rough 15 minute work tape that she revisited while recording folklore/evermore, and pieced some unused lyrics together with new lyrics to form this new version. I mean the last 3 minutes are a dead giveaway of that - the lyrics and melodies are NOT something she was writing 10 years ago. But it's such a masterful piece of art. Like how cool would it be if another artist like katy perry or lady gaga or beyonce went back to a song they wrote 10 years ago and rewrote it to fit their current era 🥲💞
What I think is: she had a “10 minute” song that did NOT sound like that at all in the past and now she’s even more talented than she was she decided to make this masterpiece that we just heard… especially the end of the song really reminds me of the “Folklore” style, so I do believe the inicial song was longer, but I pretty sure she changed some of the lyrics. The “I was never good at telling jokes but the punch line goes: I’ll get older but your lovers stay my age” she couldn’t have written this verse back in the day… only nowdays. But whatever: the song is just * PERFECTION *
More to the point, Jake Gyllenhal has dated women younger and OLDER than him. It's only his current girlfriend that's much younger than him, so no, this was definitely not always written. Although everyone at first listen always misunderstood the "fuck the patriarchy" line. It's totally possible Jake Gyllenhal had a fuck the patriarchy keychain in 20-whatever
i think what happened is that all too well used to be around 8 minutes which, to be fair, is closer to 10 than it is to 3, or even 5 which is how long it ended up being. she mentioned how it used to be “like 10 minutes long” and everyone kinda ran with the “ten minute version” thing so she felt pressured to make it at least 10 minutes. i think the 10 min version we did get was the original “10 minute version”, ending at the part before “and i was never good at telling jokes”. that part is retrospective and obviously couldn’t have written that part AT 21/22. in the short film we see sadie as taylor for the entire time EXCEPT when that part of the song comes on, now cutting to older, wiser, ginger taylor, where she’s telling her all too well story in the form of a book/memoir and not a song. this to me feels very intentional, like ‘hey this is my point of view on it now’. the runtime obviously still wasn’t 10 minutes so she created a long outro which just so happens to fit the vibe and intensity of the song. anyway sorry for that novel
THANK YOU it’s so irritating to me when ppl say the F the Patriarchy keychain wasn’t real. Feels like a real lack of historical context. Just bc something wasn’t a part of the mainstream convo doesn’t mean no one knew abt it.
When you said ‘her vocal is louder than the track’ that is my biggest note of this album: she sounds sooo close to the mic in every song, it didn’t need to be that way, and i hope she dials back literally going forward
Yup it really isn’t mixed very well
To me on the original red her vocals were too low, especially in all too well during the bridge it feels like her voice is just in the same volume of the instruments and it kinda drowns out her voice.
It basically flipped
@@TheNraveles Fair point, even though you came for og all too well’s bridge like that 😂
idk if someone said this already but Forever Winter is about Jeff Lang, Taylor's friend who killed himself around the time of Speak Now's release. She sang at his funeral and if you watch her accepting the 2010 BMI songwriting award, she talks about it and you can really see how much that shook her.
@@jimbob2427 Why would there be??!!
the just between us, did the love affair maim you too? part makes me cry every time...the ending gets me so bad
Stan blondie but you can’t deny that yes 100% correct, she didn’t take her time with some of the songs. I know for a fact she didn’t considering some of the vocals were recorded in Belfast, and it was only 3 months before the album came out that she was there. It’s funny because folklore was an album where all the creators were apart but you’d never think it, but I’ve a gut feeling she probably did vocals and sent them off to someone who was producing.
I was trying to Mastermind a comment cause you made so many valid points, hurt my feelings, and had me cry laughing multiple times. So glad I found you to binge (another Midnights' blessing)!!! You are Gorgeous and elegant. You are a vibe, the moment, and an aesthetic mood ✨
29:30 there is absolutely no way she wrote that and then cut it from the track and didn't use it in another song. It's just too good
I'm actually a new swiftie, it was after evermore when I got into Taylor Swift. I listened to Red for the first time when Taylor's Version was released and I always thought "Girl At Home" should've had a country song production rather than electropop. It was only after your video that I realised there actually IS one existing since long before😭 Thanks Zach.
Oh my goodness the fact that Message In A Bottle is my new favorite bop and that I actually love the Girl At Home Remake (although it sounds more like the Willow Remix...)-
I guess these songs are really dividing the fandom and I love seeing it
messege in a bottle grows on you later that turns scary, Im obsessed with it.
In "I Bet You Think About Me" ...When she talks about the farm, and that he on the other hand was this rich man, etc... and you think it's "delusional writing" I don't think she's writing what she actually thinks, but about what he made her feel, like she was this little country girl, and that he was better than her, from the music he likes to the city he's from, etc. He (Jake) was always condescending towards her and her music, her age, her jokes, her lyrics, everything.
For Girl at Home I had the same reaction and I even said I wouldn’t listen to Taylor’s Version of it however the song is come around for me. I still do think the original is 100% better however I think she tried to do a 1989 Version of Girl at Home like she did with Love Story and maybe she originally wanted it like this (I don’t see her wanting it that way) and Scott wouldn’t let her as it was to synth pop which led it to being a country song.
Listening to "Nothing New" with the retrospect is so empowering as a listener, can't imagine what it's like for Taylor to sing this song now
Love someone, especially the biggest swiftie I know, loving "The last time". Is my second favorite song of Taylor EVER (first is ATWTM, i'm basic, sue me). I absolutely adore this song, the lyrics, the duet. You're so right, is better than Exile, even if I love this song too. As always, love your honesty, is so refreshing. Keep doing the awesome work!
Unpopular opinion: I love the new Girl at Home (as well as the original). It's so fun and brings a unique life to a song that kinda blends in with other (better) stuff on Red (I Almost Do, ATW, SBT, etc), which was the issue with the original. And being the closing song on the deluxe edition (not including SoG acoustic, which I think is fair considering it's just another arrangement of a song already on the album), it seemingly marks a direct line between Red and 1989 in sound.
I didn't listen to the original of that song (didn't have the deluxe). I went back and...yeah the original is boring compared. I don't like EDM usually and yet it brings so much to that song. Like they're speaking to each other in a club in the new version. Gives the song a proper setting.
Maybe it's really unpopular but the original makes me sleep while the new one can make me dance to it. This is also the one that was supposed to be pop but maybe a specific man told her to make it more country, that's why the old one sound kinda lame to me
i’m obsessed with girl at home tv i love it way more than the og, it’s weirdly the same with me for wtny
“If she fucks this one up, she’s going to jail…”😬 How I feel about Sparks Fly and I’m scared🙈
I love your enthusiasm!! It’s infection. I am not even a fan but definitely gonna listen to this after watching your video!
thank you!! enjoy the ride!!
Yours and Madelines opinions are the only swifty opinions I care about cause y’all are ALWAYS right!!! Thank you for your service in critiquing I Bet You Think About Me cause no one else is talking about it!!!!!! Taylor is so ugh sometimes 😅
how did he not burst out in tears during ronan
Cuz I did that when it first came out in 2012
@@theswiftologist ❤❤❤❤💅
I loved every song, no real complaints. The “we-EE” doesn’t bother me, if anything I like it more! As a fellow Holy Ground fan, this rerecording wasn’t too upsetting for me, but I prefer the original a tiny bit, although I can settle for it. HOWEVER. Holy Ground TV’s final “part” of the song has subtle high pitched minor piano sounds and while I don’t really mind too much, it is kinda distracting. Girl At Home is forever improved, period. Going from the worst song on Red to being middle tier just because of epic production change? Yes PLEASE!!! Kinda unfortunate that you didn’t like Girl At Home TV, I think she allowed herself to change it up because she knew nobody really liked it before.
No you're actually insane for your girl at home opinion
@@theswiftologist It’s become a BOP though!! Before it was a snooze fest for me.
@@JackToTheA1 I thought the original Girl at Home was charming/cute, anti-feminist lyrics aside. The re recorded version is really really different. It would take me a long time to get used to the new production, and I really don’t think I can be bothered.
@@theswiftologist The original production was so bad that I skipped girl at home every time and now I can actually listen to it
@@theswiftologist yeah i also prefer the new girl at home bc it embraces how bad it is lol. I really do not like that song. I think it should’ve gone just back in the vault for Red TV. Like give us the new vault tracks, but also put some of the original tracks back in vault and throw away the key.
Better Man was the one I was most excited for. When I found out she wrote it I was like, “Um Taylor, where’s your version girl?” I like her version better than the LBT one.
I listened same order as you, so I thought by the time we got to Girl At Home we were in the homestretch and safe territory. I thought my headphones had broke at first.
LMFAO I know its truly so bizarre
The way Taylor says “it was always on your terms” gives me chills every time
hanging on every careless word 😢
thanks, finally a person who understands exactly how i felt after listening IKYWT, it sounds sooo different from the original. i like the original way better. However, i loved the other ones.
This is how I feel about The Last Time. The difference is insane
yesss
I find it so funny that even though I know you're being emotional with her but you also heard the birthday shenanigans in atwtmv and went "Womp Womp." crazy
editing cuz i got to the IKYWT part. garage band was quite the flashback thank you
Seeing you get THE FUCCCCK down to 22 is giving me life!!
I like your reaction because its critical and not just praising the hell out of it unlike the other reaction youtubers. Also, I do think that ATW 10 Minute Version is written later/now because I don't think Taylor has achieved that kind of layered songwriting yet in 2012.
My initial reaction when i heard We Are Never... was "She needs to redo this, unacceptable... just, no". That high-pitched "WeeEE" makes me cringe and I try to laugh it off.😅 But loved most of the other rerecords on the album!
she killed her. she killed my favorite bitch
she said her goal for this song was for it to be as annoying as possible because jake hated annoying cringey pop songs 😂😂😂😂
God the swiftologist is my favorite goober
THANK YOU FOR THE GIRL AT HOME REACTION! i'm literally in tears from laughing so much.
I came in expecting you hating ALL the songs and seeing you liked some of them made me a happy, cause it's sucks that you're favorite album gets ruined. so I hoped you at least will enjoy some and this won't ruin EVERYTHING for you on Red. but yeah, there are some atrocities on this re-recording. i'm worried for my baby Speak Now (album) and reputation re-recording. cause she ruined a lot on Fearless TV as well.
My biggest issue is why the fuck they don't use real instruments??? Jack and Aaron how to play guitar. like why are they using these synths on songs that used guitars?? WHY?!?!
Your reaction to Message In A Bottle!!! wow. so funny. this song is so bad. it's literally a Disney song. "she's serving singing...... but nothing else" LOL
I actually like I Bet You Think About Me cause Taylor said in a radio interview that they wrote it as supposed to be a joke and not that seriously. but your reaction is priceless to the lyrics of gated communited and such. so funny.
Yes! so happy you liked 'The Very First Night' it is generic but it's more fun than Message In A Bottle. oohhh you're right, this one could easily replace Stay Stay Stay. you're so right!!
Holy Ground doesn't sound the same. it sounds slower!
All in all I agree with you. the re-recordings of the old songs sound unfinished. like something missing with the production AND layered vocals. there aren't any layered vocals! it happened in Fearless TV as well with You Belong With Me. her vocals sound so upfront. like she recorded them so close to the mic. so it seems she ruins her biggest hits.
I wonder if the changes in the beginning of the songs are so that Big Machine wouldn't be able to claim they did a copycat of the master recordings...
Curious what your thoughts on speak now are now that it’s out lol
To be honest, I hated the original Girl at home. This new one is one my favorite tracks
I love your expression at 12:50 when you realise Message in a Bottle isn’t as good as you hoped it might be 😅
Agreed with some of the production… can’t imagine Taylor wouldn’t have heard that herself… 🤔
I did a deep dive into the production credits and I have a theory as to why it’s all fucked up now…will prob discuss it on the podcast!
You NEED to break down that "Olivia Rodrigo has the blueprint and Taylor Swift doesn't like it" comment because I think I agree with you but I can't explain why I feel like that is the case.
explain…? 😭
was about to settle in for a movie but this is way better
Yes legend
I agree with you in that i don't think she necessarily had the entirety of the atw 10 minute version made in 2010/11 but I do think a lot of it was written in the way she says. I think that Taylor was much more image-conscious then and while she might've written a lot of this at the time, maybe didn't feel that she could use all of it. I mean she was 21... we saw her as a saint and for the most part I'm sure she was. But that's how she wanted to be seen. She definitely could've still written 'fuck the patriarchy' for example.
I do think the last verse was written now. It seems like it's more of a reflection on the relationship from years later. She's saying that even after all this time she remembers the way he made her feel
when i first heard all too well 10 minute version, all the added parts just sounded like filler..but now analyzing the lyrics it's sooo good
I was honestly surprised by your take on. I bet you think about me. For me, honestly. It's one of my favorite songs. So kind of like, how in blank space she wrote about the media character. I think I bet you still think about me is her writing from the character debut Taylor Swift, not the real Taylor Swift.
combing through old videos while i'm at work and can i just say.
1. the red flannel works for you
2. drop the candle info pleaseeee
3. the interior decor is so pinterest fall vibes especially with the red cd, the flowers and the candles etc, i love it!!!
how can you doubt she wrote those lyrics during that time when songs like red, treacherous, state of grace, og all too well were released during those times. the songwriting on them is literally on the same level if not superior.
I don't know how he could doubt all to well lyrics
The real tea I got from ATW10min was that Gyllenhaal was the first boyfriend Scott Swift actually approved of. And then he treated her like shit.
I think Taylor throwing in ‘fuck the patriarchy’ is her way of unpacking her ongoing dad issues. It’s clear that, as much as she craves approval and adulation from everyone, she especially needs male approval - this is clear from looking at her male vs female friendships and collaborations. I think that this need goes back to wanting to impress her dad and needing more of his approval than she received. Can relate. 😢
YESSSS that’s so true I wrote that in my notes for the pod
@@theswiftologist yesss I can’t wait for the podcast reaction!! Swiftologist fans are getting FED 😘
@@theswiftologist I’m still working through this train of thought haha.
I’m also thinking that what made this breakup especially difficult was that Taylor’s parents were going through their divorce around this time. Taylor would have been working through the reality that her parents’ relationship was not a fairytale she probably once believed it was, as well as competing loyalties to Scott and Andrea, and perhaps feeling some misplaced guilt that Andrea and Taylor touring without Scott contributed to her parents’ relationship breakdown. I also think there might have been some similarities between Scott and Jake, which Taylor would then have had to process.
I might be reading too much into some of this. But I think if you connect the dots, we’re getting a much clearer picture as to why this particular relationship fucked her up so much.
I don't think that phrase is said by her, it's implied it's either Jake or the keychain in his car keys, but not her. I think she's describing an argument they had and her probably calling out his bs.
@@wickywicky3811 I think it is because men are controlling when it comes to driving. So when Jake throws her the car keys, it means he doesn’t care if a woman drives the car.
I am bingeing all of your videos and I can't find the all you need to know before Red TV, my OCD is gonna kill me 🤯
Dude, honestly same thoughts, especially the lyrics in “I Bet You Think About Me”. I don’t get some of the sound and production choices she made with some of the songs, but I really loved what she did with Run, The Very First Night and All Too Well. 💕
I’m watching this while doing history homework and I guess this counts as revisiting history so it’s on topic
no because jake had a keychain that said "fuck the patriarchy"
Where did people find this info? Has he ever talked about it??
Funny to hear this message from Jake lol )) he is the low key misogynistic dude pretending to be progressive and on trend… „ the cool dude“ 😂
I couldnt listen to Ronan even before i became a mom. After becoming a mom it's just traumatizing
it’s absolutely heartbreaking. it’s my cry song. i absolutely love almost every child i meet and to think of this type of heartbreak makes me want to absolutely crawl into a hole and die
Big agree. Cannot listen to it as a mum. Impossible
THE VERY FIRST NIGHT STANS RISE
Agree - best of the new vault tracks
My favorite
waiting for your reaction to girl at home ... omg i died ksjdhfjskdhf
it was bad. it was a bad moment for me
@@theswiftologist it is the funniest fucking song on the record to me now. like yeah WANEGBT has the weeeEEEE's now but GIRL AT HOME??!?!?!? SHES DERANGED SHE SAID DO WHATEVER THE FUCK YOU WANT IDC 😭
Re: “F the Patriarchy,” I fully believe Jake Gyllenhaal was into that in 2012. I was a Gender Studies minor in college in upstate NY in 2006. Also Miss Blondie was writing “ But in your life you'll do things
Greater than dating the boy on the football team” and “ Back then I swore I was gonna marry him someday
But I realized some bigger dreams of mine” in 2008!!! Feminism was being DISCUSSED! By some!
Just picture Jake Gyllenhaal picking up a F the Patriarchy keychain at a Brooklyn art market in 2010ish. This is so likely lol.
When you were talking about holy ground DOO Doo dOo I literally fell the down the stairs laughing 😭
i'm so happy that your honest and don't just praise her every day.
Also the new version on Girl at home is so much better and makes me want to shake my ass in the air, although now it sound more like a 1989 track I prefer the new one over the og
Elvira Anderfjärd and Jeff Bhasker must be held accountable for their war crimes to achieve justice for girl at home and holy ground
I'll be hunting them down
I tried not to while watching but sorry I can't help myself when Zachary had me burst out laughing whenever he says a prayer at the beginning. 🤣
"WHhhhhHHHHuuuUUUuuuttttt" in response to your Message in a Bottle reaction lol! It's soooooooooo gooooood!
I love the new version of Girl at Home!!!!! Much prefer it over the original, but I’m sure others were as disappointed as you lol
I am so glad you hold the opinion that she didn’t write some of these vault lyrics in 2010/11/12 saaame
Okay your reaction to I Bet You Think About Me tells me you don't understand the affluence of the Gyllenhaal family. Taylor isn't calling herself a poor country girl, but her childhood upbringing is leagues below Jake's and that's the contrast she was trying to paint a picture of. Her father had a stable job but they weren't an influential family before she became THE Taylor Swift.
Please don't presume that you know what I do or don't know. I've been doing this longer than you, guaranteed! I understand perfectly well the affluence of Jake's family, HOWEVER, their differences were largely cultural (and social cache) rather than fiscal. Taylor painting herself as a rural country girl is disingenuous, period. No matter who she is comparing herself to. But thanks for trying to school me unnecessarily x
I’m in love with I Bet You Think About Me like it’s so stupid and catchy
Sooo…can we agree that “Message In a Bottle” is kind of a segue into 1989?
i had this thought when listening to it as well!
Fuck the patriarchy, I guess.
I wouldn’t have any issues with ATW10mins if Ms Swift were just a bit more honest about it’s origins. I feel like it would have been totally fine for her to present it as ATW(extended); a mixture of the original, some lines/verses that were cut, and some reflections on that relationship 10 years on.
I’m not sure how she expected us to believe that story she told on Jimmy Fallon, with her essentially writing the whole thing impromptu, in a single 10-15 minute session, and the sound guy happened to record it on a mystery CD never seen or heard of again, until now. I mean really. I noticed her explanation of the 10min version was scaled back quite a bit when she appeared on Seth Myers.
I’m glad I’m not the only one who was suspicious of her describing the birth of the og ATW10 on Fallon. The lyrics in the song point to her writing it more recently.
I’m gonna get killed for this but I liked holy ground. Not as good as the original but I didn’t find it terrible. And the new girl at home is way better than the original in my opinion, it just took a few listens to get what she’s going for
jail jail JAIL!!!
no like deadass what she did to holy ground and girl at home broke the geneva conventions. straight up war crimes!!! loved your reactions though, and am very much looking forward to more of your insight on the podcast!
"Did you use protection??? What is the vibe???" 🤣🤣🤣
I would’ve forgiven the Girl At Home remix if she included the original I loved her sm even if I couldn’t really get it as a young girl 😭
Me over here bopping out to the new girl at home as it is my new favorite! 😂😂
Ok I have to say I've been kind of bingeing your content lately. Found you like a few weeks ago. I don't even know about Taylor really but you've made me see the light! But I was a swiftie for her, not her music. I'm just gonna be totally honest. But this video turned me around. Especially when you listened to 22. I am now a swiftie through and through haha. I will always remember this day! lol
I'm so happy I found your channel
Ok I'm low key getting emotional to her doing "never getting back together" cause I feel like it's her singing for her younger self. I honestly agree with you that it's not 100%, but it's so sweet that she's re-living and hopefully healing a little doing this. No matter how happy we were, we all need to heal our younger self a little
Thank you for these elite opinions as per ushe bestie
anytime xoxo
"Why are they so different in the beginning?" So, I think she purposefully put something in all of them so that we can't listen to old songs mixed with new ones lmao
I TRIED making a playlist of the new versions but with a few old versions (wanegbt, for example), and they sound like they come from different studios. So I can't pick and choose the versions I like best without a scare jump, I have to commit either to OG or TV. We can't get the best of both worlds. She is so evil.
ok for I bet you think about me I think it was more of a comparison to her and Jake. he grew up as a billionaire in Beverley hills. Was Taylor privileged? absolutely. but I think what she is trying to say is HE was always acting like he was better than she was. not that she was underprivileged. but I do understand how the song comes off the wrong way.
The way you tried so hard to get into message in bottle and count is so funny 😂
The best way to do a music reaction video is with headphones, so you can judge the production properly.
Judged it pretty good without but thanks
In her interview with Seth Meyers when she was talking about re-releasing her music she said that she lurks online and said “the fans tell me which songs should’ve gotten videos so I’m making the videos” - but we haven’t gotten any music videos to old songs yet, have we?! 😥
She’s talking about all too well there with the short film! I think it’s safe to assume when rep tv comes out there will also be something for getaway car.
@@baileymcbride18 I feel like it that was the case, cruel summer would’ve gotten a music video by now.. like ya I know it’s not a re-recording, but it was just released as a single. A music video would make perfect sense. We’ll see with 1989 but speak now only got a video for a vault track so I think she might’ve been referencing all too well and all too well only.
i bet you think about me!
“Red is my fav Taylor swift album” ME TOO YOURE SO REAL FOR THATTT
I actually don't mind when actual swifties criticize Taylor songs, this video was actually hilarious, but when its a non-swiftie talking shit ab a Taylor song I can't take it
You are the smartest person person I have ever seen. I quote, "Treacherous, which, to be honest, is kind of a snooze until the last 2 minutes when it becomes the greatest song ever written." THIS IS BLASPHEMOUS BUT SO SO SO TRUEEE
Red is my favorite album too! I will say the vault songs this time around were REALLY good, and a huge improvement over the kind of garbage songs we got with Fearless TV. (Except Mr. Perfectly fucking Fine)
Yes the vault songs slapped into the next century
I agree - the red vault tracks have made me way more excited about the vault tracks to come than I was after hearing the ones from Fearless.
Aside from Better Man, I really like The Very First Night- it gave me Haylor vibes (some of the lyrics remind me of OOTW and AYHTDWS).
What were your favourite vault tracks?
@@elenagerhardy2636 Forever Winter, Nothing New, and The Very First Night. I love them all though
Don't you is right there bestie

Love how you sing all the backgrounds vocals!! ITS A VIBE 🎉❤
Holy Ground DOES deserve justice!!!!!!!
I became a swiftie the days before this release bc my friend was fangirling over it so I listened to all to well sv and then watchedall too well 10 minute version short film and became a swiftie right then and there,
It was rare
I was there
I remember it all too well
not the intro prayer pls HAUSHAJHSJAHS
i think forever winter was about her friend who overdosed, like she wanted him to not literally k word himself
Taylor writing about being a simple farm girl is kind of like Johnny Cash writing song after song about being in jail and on death row. Yes she lived on a Christmas tree farm - there's truth in that but the work she did was pulling the eggs of bugs out of the tree trunks. But she had a whole attic to herself and her house was the envy of every other kid that knew her. But I love her and her way of bending the narrative for artistic license. Taylor is very good at painting herself Relatable.
Sooo I searched for this video after hearing you mention her fucking up Holy Ground in one of your newest videos. I was like IKRRRRR. Holy Ground is in my top 10 and I was SO sad when I listened to the TV. I can't quite put my finger on it but it's different and not for the better. Please everyone go see minute 51:07, his face like 🙄 _nothing can make up for this anymore_ 🙄. It would be interesting to see a musician analysing both versions and explaining how they're different... Anyways, I feel ya sister 🤜🏻🤛🏻
P.S.: I love your videos, thank you for your hard work ❤
