Man, I knew Eric was going to be a joy to see watch these. Everyone else is great, but I’ve noticed for years how much more music-focused Eric is overall in films and shows than anyone else. It’s interesting to see what he notices.
You know what I love how Blindwave can unapologetically stick to shows that don't get a lot of views because they like the content and simultaneously try things out of their comfort zone too.
I’ve never thought of the part where he almost runs the red light bc he was looking over at her, and a comparison to how he viewed their relationship, but man you’re spot on. That is 100% something Taylor would do. I’ve listened to this song so many times that I’ve memorized the entire thing too, and never thought about that lol well done.
Fun fact: the house at the beginning (the staircase she puts her red scarf on) is Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively’s house. Still listening to the discussion so I apologize if someone already said this.
If you look at the kitchen scene, it’s one shot. It’s continuous shot. There is also a short behind the scenes making the short film, it’s very nice to see her directing snd delegating. Taylor has written nearly 300 songs. Some she writes alone, some with 1-2 cowriters, she produces them all. Jealous you guys get your go. I’m trying to find affordable tix. Fun fact., she is the only artist to be named Time Person of the Year. I think she gets bigger because 1. People are interested and ask the question, why is she so popular. Then they listen. And then they know.
the lyrical analysis was super enjoyable to watch! i think this crowd would enjoy anything from folklore, which i feel like is a huge step up from her writing on red
I really hope you get to Miss Americana. That will give you a lot of insight on how she connects with audiences the way she does and what she's been trough. I believe Calvin and Eric will really like it.
if y’all want to react to more of her start i recommend Dear John and then following up with Would’ve Could’ve Should’ve in the same video! her writing is at peak in these two songs! the cardigan, betty, and august trio would be amazing as well!
It might've been intentionally avoided out of respect, but Taylor has said herself that the scarf is actually a metaphor. It is presumed that it is a metaphor for her virginity, which makes perfect sense in the context of the song. It was left with him permanently. Taylor truly knows how to tell a story.
Just fyi you can probably show more of the video. She really lets people show the whole thing a lot without copyright drama. She said in an interview once that she likes that she can watch reaction videos
This is why I love you guys...you cover everything! This made me so happy. Just came back from the Paris show and you guys are gonna love it. I sang this entire song at the top of my lungs....she sings the whole thing at the concert and its so amazing hearing everyone singing it too.
I BEEN WAITING FOR THIS ONE ! I’m so excited for you all to enjoy and experience her music. I can’t wait for folklore and evermore because they are my favorite albums from her. Also, it’s okay if you don’t like some songs when you go through all the eras.
When you were talking about trauma, and how it seems like time doesn’t move forward and nothing changes, I instantly thought of Korra, season 4. They describe trauma in a very similar way, and both very true to what trauma does to you.
There’s a few things that aren’t in the concert that I think could make fun reactions if you continue after the concert. The John Mayer double feature comes to mind, and maybe Eric could do the eras tour movie
Omg yes they have to! The Maze Runner was a huge part of my early adolescent years!! Dylan was everything in them (I knew him from Teen Wolf first but when I found out that he was going to be in the movies, I immediately read the James Dashner books and couldn’t wait for their release) and they’re still my favorite movie trilogy to this day! (Same goes for The Hunger Games, but that’s not the point right now lol)
if you all haven't seen it, i highly suggest her netflix documentary "miss americana". if you haven't it would make a GREAT reaction! as always thank you for your work and the entertainment!
@@macm27 This is Carmen that Calvin speaks so highly of in reaction videos, and rightfully so. She's a delight. She and Calvin are perfect for one another. Looking forward to her being in more videos and from her channel as well. She started reacting to Lost, so I'm excited about that.
Hilarious that you mentioned the Spiderman kiss because the guy this song is allegedly about dated Kristen Dunst, who played in the 2002 version of Spiderman. Eric talked about her at the party and how she was acting there. The party scene is a reference to one of her songs called The Moment I Knew. That song is about how he didn't show up to her 21st birthday party even though he promised her he would ('He watched me watch the door all night willing you to come', 'It's supposed to be fun, turning 21', 'Not weeping in a party bathroom', 'You call me up again just to break me like a promise').
I LOVE this journey!! I watch your reactions and I'm also a huge Swiftie so my worlds are COLLIDING! 😂 I think it'd be really fun if after you three see the concert, you watch the Disney+ concert movie with Eric since he'll know all the songs at that point too. Then he can experience the live show and visuals in a safe space. ❤🎉
Eric and Calvin, this song/video is based on Taylor relationship with actor Jake Gyllenhaal when she was 20 and he was in his 30's. Jake's latest girlfriend Jeanne Cadieu is 28 ( she was 22 when they became a couple in 2018 ). He was 37 then. Hes 43 now.
God there are so many songs I want to recommend I dont even know where to start! Cardigan, August, Betty trilogy is a good one I guess because its Taylor venturing out of her comfort zone and writing about fictional characters instead of autobiographical.
On the far right is Dababa who has been a member of the community since the very beginning and have been working for the crew for several years. Next to her with the pink hair is Carmen, Calvin's fiance, she also has her own reaction channel she runs.
So excited for this series! I’m going to the Eras Tour in Miami in October! Maybe you guys can vlog your experience (if you feel comfortable with that) 😊
I've been a fan of Taylor since her self-titled debut (I listen to a lot of country, and especially did back then) and while I enjoy a lot of her music, I don't consider myself a swiftie. Red is my favorite album to date, I think, and midnights lost me solely because of the electrical instruments. (She put out acoustic versions of a few of the songs and they are gorgeous, I wish she'd release an acoustic album). Just to say - the guys can be fans without being swifties! If that's more their vibe. I respect her music, but since my taste crosses rock and folk and indie and all sorts of ways, she's far from my favorite songwriter. She's talented! I don't want to undercut that. But it's fine to enjoy her and still have other music you appreciate more. I do get a tidge salty when people say there's no other good songwriters out there, or that she led the country pop movement. Shania was there first XD and there's a ton of underappreciated indie artists out there writing ridiculously amazing songs that never make it on the radio. (Also, if any fans spot this - please don't be one of those who belittles the country roots. Country music has a stereotype, and the radio isn't great these days, but it's where she got a lot of the writing patterns that she still uses today. The lyrical change-ups, the storytelling, the distinctive visuals - a lot of those are country hallmarks) Just a long-winded way of saying - I appreciate the swifties, and kudos to y'all for loving what you love unapologetically! But that's far from the only way to enjoy her music, and even if people don't end up being superfans, there's a lot to appreciate just from a music perspective.
Man, I knew Eric was going to be a joy to see watch these. Everyone else is great, but I’ve noticed for years how much more music-focused Eric is overall in films and shows than anyone else. It’s interesting to see what he notices.
I've wondered if he pays extra close attention to sound and music because he's deaf in one ear, like his brain is just more attuned to pick it up.
@@ladrac198 Yeah he's said that before
I genuinely think I've now seen everything, Blind Wave have reacted to All Too Well by Taylor swift 😂
Love that Eric is repping TTPD! 🫶
You know what I love how Blindwave can unapologetically stick to shows that don't get a lot of views because they like the content and simultaneously try things out of their comfort zone too.

I didn’t know that! Thank you for sharing. ❤️
If you look at the kitchen scene, it’s one shot. It’s continuous shot. There is also a short behind the scenes making the short film, it’s very nice to see her directing snd delegating. Taylor has written nearly 300 songs. Some she writes alone, some with 1-2 cowriters, she produces them all. Jealous you guys get your go. I’m trying to find affordable tix.
Fun fact., she is the only artist to be named Time Person of the Year. I think she gets bigger because 1. People are interested and ask the question, why is she so popular. Then they listen. And then they know.
I love this. Thank you for sharing ❤️
In the TTPD merch (and the rest in flannel)?? Incredible.
The way I emotionally squealed when I saw Eric wipe away a tear!!! MY HEART.
I am insanely excited for this series!!!!! LETS GOOOOOO
Yay! We are excited that you’re excited! 😆
I heard someone say that a grown up relationship fight should be “me and you against the problem, not me against you”
I can't put into words how much I love this and how excited I am for this journey
28:02 "on the outside looking in" HIM QUOTING HER WITHOUT KNOWING IT IS SO FUNNY
It's a common phrase.
the lyrical analysis was super enjoyable to watch! i think this crowd would enjoy anything from folklore, which i feel like is a huge step up from her writing on red
I really hope you get to Miss Americana. That will give you a lot of insight on how she connects with audiences the way she does and what she's been trough. I believe Calvin and Eric will really like it.
if y’all want to react to more of her start i recommend Dear John and then following up with Would’ve Could’ve Should’ve in the same video! her writing is at peak in these two songs! the cardigan, betty, and august trio would be amazing as well!
Afterwards the manuscript bc I still can’t completely be sure but I’m almost positive it’s also about John M
I’m not much of Taylor swift fan but I’m a HUGE Bon Iver fan so I hope they try Exile.
Exile is a favorite of mine!
I like both of them but Nevermore scratches the back of my neck in such a satisfying way 😂
Btw the guy in this song is rumoured if not confirmed to be Jake Gyllenhall
I did not have blind wave reacting to All Too Well on my bingo card and I ain’t mad about it 😂❤
It might've been intentionally avoided out of respect, but Taylor has said herself that the scarf is actually a metaphor. It is presumed that it is a metaphor for her virginity, which makes perfect sense in the context of the song. It was left with him permanently. Taylor truly knows how to tell a story.
I think it's a metaphor for innocence
Just fyi you can probably show more of the video. She really lets people show the whole thing a lot without copyright drama. She said in an interview once that she likes that she can watch reaction videos
Parts with little to no reaction won’t be shown
i remember when this came out, i was so shocked to see sadie sink and dylan o’brien, especially dylan lol
im so excited for future Taylor reactions from you guys , its gonna be great
Carmen being in these videos made my day!!! Super excited for the rest of Swiftie Saturdays! Do you plan on watching The Eras Tour Movie?
I hope Eric does because he can't go to the concert
@@nickole1065 I thought he already saw the concert, in the blank space reaction i swear they said they are going to the actual tour
@@ivanivanoffkrakowski9096none of them have been yet, Eric is not going to the concert.
@codenamewitchxx9486 this comment made my day 😊
blind wave is so great
This is why I love you guys...you cover everything! This made me so happy. Just came back from the Paris show and you guys are gonna love it. I sang this entire song at the top of my lungs....she sings the whole thing at the concert and its so amazing hearing everyone singing it too.
I’m so jealous!! What a city to watch her in!
I BEEN WAITING FOR THIS ONE ! I’m so excited for you all to enjoy and experience her music. I can’t wait for folklore and evermore because they are my favorite albums from her. Also, it’s okay if you don’t like some songs when you go through all the eras.
Thank you for your time, its very valuable to me
Calvin and Eric, you guys nailed it. this is awesome I love that you're doing this 🥹
When you were talking about trauma, and how it seems like time doesn’t move forward and nothing changes, I instantly thought of Korra, season 4. They describe trauma in a very similar way, and both very true to what trauma does to you.
I’ve never clicked on a video faster in my life
Speaking of Teen Wolf with Dylan… that would be awesome to see you guys react to that series!
There’s a few things that aren’t in the concert that I think could make fun reactions if you continue after the concert. The John Mayer double feature comes to mind, and maybe Eric could do the eras tour movie
I have watched movie and show reactions from you guys and i’m a huge taylor fan, so seeing this and it being the short film makes me super excited!!
I would LOVE for these guys to watch Teen Wolf--especially Eric, who's already met Derek and Peter from Superman!!
now yall gotta react to maze runner i cannot believe y’all never watched the trilogy or know dylan o’brien!! u have to now…
Omg yes they have to! The Maze Runner was a huge part of my early adolescent years!! Dylan was everything in them (I knew him from Teen Wolf first but when I found out that he was going to be in the movies, I immediately read the James Dashner books and couldn’t wait for their release) and they’re still my favorite movie trilogy to this day! (Same goes for The Hunger Games, but that’s not the point right now lol)
Put in on your list
Omg I’m so excited for Swiftie Saturdays!!! 😻💖👏🏼
I love hearing how the guys relate & think about the lyrics, great analysis!!
if you all haven't seen it, i highly suggest her netflix documentary "miss americana". if you haven't it would make a GREAT reaction! as always thank you for your work and the entertainment!
swiftie Saturday migght be the best thing thats ever happend to me lmao, please do many more!
Yay! I’ve been hoping you guys would come back around to Taylor!! Enjoy the journey! ❤❤❤
Great reaction! Super excited for more Swiftie Saturdays! I will only be satisfied once y'all have reacted to her entire discography!
y’all need to watch Maze Runner! y’all would love it!
Is that @CarmenYoung? Her Battlestar Galactica reactions are golden!! Welcome to Blind Wave!!
Yes, her and Calvin are engaged
@@macm27 This is Carmen that Calvin speaks so highly of in reaction videos, and rightfully so. She's a delight. She and Calvin are perfect for one another. Looking forward to her being in more videos and from her channel as well. She started reacting to Lost, so I'm excited about that.
The TTPD sweater 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Im glad you guys are doing some deep dives. Your opinions mean alot, you can connect the dots.
Loving Swiftie Saturday! ❤ great reaction keep it going
Loved this! The lyric analysis especially. Will there be TTPD reactions too?
We plan on doing her whole set at the Eras tour. ❤
I hope so, i mean TTPD is now on the set at the Eras Tour
TTPD analysis will be a 5 hour video 😭
I usually don't like reactions, where you jump through the songs. But in this case I really loved your discussion after. 👍👍
maze runner reactions on the wayyyy pleaseee!!
Bridgerton yesterday and All Too Well today??? This is just the BEST!!!
I would LOVE to see a reaction to the music video Mean
I wish she would have added it to the set list at the Eras Tour 😭
OMG YES this is such a pleasant surprise!! Thank you for doing this :)
Hilarious that you mentioned the Spiderman kiss because the guy this song is allegedly about dated Kristen Dunst, who played in the 2002 version of Spiderman.

I'm so excited for this series. Long time fan of the channel and a middle aged male Swiftie.
hold on im so sat for this series LMFAOO
they need to watch the maze runner pleaseeee
Wow so jealous you guys are going on the eras tour. I really enjoyed this
I LOVE this journey!! I watch your reactions and I'm also a huge Swiftie so my worlds are COLLIDING! 😂
I think it'd be really fun if after you three see the concert, you watch the Disney+ concert movie with Eric since he'll know all the songs at that point too. Then he can experience the live show and visuals in a safe space. ❤🎉
I hope Eric wants to check it out after 😊
I NEVER THOUGHT YOU GUYS WOULD REACT TO TAYLOR SWIFT
Eric and Calvin, this song/video is based on Taylor relationship with actor Jake Gyllenhaal when she was 20 and he was in his 30's.
Jake's latest girlfriend Jeanne Cadieu is 28 ( she was 22 when they became a couple in 2018 ).
He was 37 then.
Hes 43 now.
Woah, UA-cam played me an ad for a Jake movie before this video played…
Taylor Swift coming to the Blind Wave Channel!? Oh hell yeah haha! Never thought I’d see the day but I’m not complaining!😁🤩
Surprised you haven't seen the Maze Runner films. Will put it in my Recommendations on your site lol
Love the analysis❤
Love that Carmen is here ( I watch her channel ) for this.
Question.
Who is Carmen to the guys ?
Calvin and Carmen are engaged.
@@JustJake91 Thanks.
The more you know.
I LOVE THIS
God there are so many songs I want to recommend I dont even know where to start! Cardigan, August, Betty trilogy is a good one I guess because its Taylor venturing out of her comfort zone and writing about fictional characters instead of autobiographical.
Love this!
This reaction is a surprise to be sure but a welcome one
omggg i love that Eric is wearing TTPD merch
Eric wearing the ttpd merch 😍 the man has taste
yayy, so happy for more taylor here
oh this is fun! love this channel
You know what fuck it I'm in
someone tell the boys to watch the maze runner series i think they’d enjoy the films
Yay! First TS Saturday reaction!! 😂😂 Love you guys!
So who are the two ladies? I am not a regular viewer of the channel so I don’t know. Loved their reaction!!!
On the far right is Dababa who has been a member of the community since the very beginning and have been working for the crew for several years. Next to her with the pink hair is Carmen, Calvin's fiance, she also has her own reaction channel she runs.
@@JustJake91 Alright thanks!!!
OMG!! 🎉
Any chance of full album reactions eventually?
Not full albums. Just not enough time for it. But the road map is doing her sets from the Eras tour.
@@dababa85 Well that sounds fun too 🙃
OK you guys NEED to react to Teen Wolf! I can't believe you haven't seen that, it's right up your alley!
Max from Stranger Things
I loved this reaction 💖💖💖 As a Swiftie myself, I'm so excited for all the future Swiftie Saturdays 🙌
❤❤
❤ 🤗
So excited for this series! I’m going to the Eras Tour in Miami in October! Maybe you guys can vlog your experience (if you feel comfortable with that) 😊
So excited that you’re going! ❤️❤️
OOH LOVE THIS! Would you ever consider reacting to the Eras tour film? Watching era by era perhaps?
Eric definitely should since he can't see it in person.
Get that boy excited muahaha

looking forward to this adventure! would love to see a reaction to the era’s tour movie, maybe after you go to the concert!
well now they have to watch the maze runner!! how have you guys never seen it omg
TTPD💛💛💛💛
Yay so excited for this series!
SWIFTIE SATURDAY????? Count me in!!
Great video, huge swiftie! Eric, maybe you’d be able to do a reaction to the Eras Tour film from last year!
Wow this was so in depth and so wholesome at the same time. Loved this reaction
I went last year, floor seats, AND IT WAS AMAZING!!! I get to see her in November too, and I’m sooo excited to get to see TTPD!!!
So here for this!!!
Woah u have to Watch maze Runner🥰
Incredible 😅
I enjoyed the reaction and inputs!
