2024-03-14 18:56:30 +0000 UTCDon't see anywhere for TTP to fit in the lover house... Definitely feels like it could be the start of a "new" house though

2024-02-27 03:26:53 +0000 UTCDamn watching this after the "and I wouldn't marry me either" lyric hurts 😭😭

2023-06-01 20:18:21 +0000 UTCI am new to Patreon so I am watching all these videos for the first time and your fathoming from minutes 23-27 is making me feel all the feels. #indenialera.

2023-04-11 00:05:54 +0000 UTCrewatching this cuz it's valentines day and on the topic of how we sometimes don't like singles as much because they're played a lot on the radio. That is how I unfortunately feel about Delicate. It was SO OVERPLAYED on the radio that is lower in rep ranking.

2023-02-14 22:29:07 +0000 UTCwhen ya'll said tree album I instantly thought of the interview where she said "I need to get out of the forest for this album" or something like that after doing Evermore and Folklore!

2023-01-31 14:12:04 +0000 UTCRiiight? It’s such an overlooked song where she pretty much says she got married
Cristina
2022-12-27 11:21:19 +0000 UTCIt’s nice to have a friend also gives “we’re married” vibes. Very under the radar song but very obvious about marriage
Cristina
2022-12-27 11:14:08 +0000 UTCThis is so random and late, but does everyone remember the capital one cardigan commercial and all the references to the folklore songs with the items on the shelves and she wears a necklace saying INEZ in the commercial! Absolutely iconic! Love the video as always ladies <3

2022-12-15 10:15:26 +0000 UTCI've just watched this for the first time. Thank you girls for opening my eyes to so many things in this music video. Also as a mum of 2 little kids, I know I'm being selfish saying this, but I wish Taylor has kids. I would LOVE to hear her songs that are from a mother's POV. There's just so much new emotion involved in mothering and I often struggle to process/understand/accept them cause not all of them are good. I feel like I really need Taylor's genius songwriting help to live through tough moments.

2022-11-16 21:23:58 +0000 UTCRight?! I always think about that interview during the bridge of "Karma". "Ask me what I've learned from all those years" When that was literally the question in the iterview and she answered "That Karma is real" !
Christin
2022-11-01 10:56:44 +0000 UTCLove the new background setup 🤩 one of the main things I appreciate about this channel is just feeling like I’m sitting in a living room with my besties analyzing everything Taylor Swift ❤️
Alyssa Kennedy
2022-10-29 23:40:25 +0000 UTCI think Taylor definitely wants to get married and have kids. I feel like she might start having kids after her re-records are done.
Alice
2022-10-19 13:10:30 +0000 UTCCan we discuss the Taylor Grammy submissions for 2023 posted by the swift society?
Alice
2022-10-18 17:22:52 +0000 UTCSo random, but y'all should so do a video watching the 73 questions interview with Vogue. Taylor says some things in there that are crazy to fathom now!!
Michelle Akin
2022-10-16 17:41:29 +0000 UTCThis is my fave background setup ❤️

2022-10-15 18:56:09 +0000 UTCActually so devastated I can't meet you in Paris 😭😭
Edith Rosell
2022-10-15 08:09:35 +0000 UTCOnce I read in the comments how Alwyn means friend, and "It's nice to have a friend" clicked for me in a whole new way. I never particularly liked it before or listened to it, but now it is one of my favorite TS songs.
tjohannam
2022-10-14 09:56:32 +0000 UTCshe really did seem to lean in to her understanding about how important diversity is in this era didn't she? Even ATW short film extras cast are super diverse.
Jaimie C
2022-10-14 02:29:44 +0000 UTCThe production pulls back on that line too so once it stuck with me I always sing it loud and I'm also like, okay I hear ya Taylor. 🤩
Jaimie C
2022-10-14 02:22:45 +0000 UTCTalking about her being engaged/married - i have always thought that It's Nice To Have A Friend was her way of telling us that they got married!
Bree
2022-10-14 01:43:17 +0000 UTCShe went to the attic to go into hiding because the whole world hated her. But then Joe joined her in hiding! 😮

2022-10-13 19:45:32 +0000 UTComg yes this set up is so cozy nd beautiful loveeeeee
Breanna Hernandez
2022-10-13 18:54:02 +0000 UTCJust fathomed that the backdrop in the lover room behind the bed is just like the backdrop of MMWM #help
Hannah Bessette
2022-10-13 17:16:32 +0000 UTCTook her a while but I'm glad she hasn't chosen a blonde white guy for the video... No one really talks about it, but for me the Lover era was so so important, because she finally spoke out about so many different issues. Knowing she wasn't that typical white racist republican "americas sweet heart" girl was really reassuring. Not that she necessarily gave off those vibes in the early years, she had just never really made clear which side she was on. Now I can look back at all her old content (with all those white guys to be honest) and be a bit relieved and just enjoy all that is Taylor Swift.
Maya
2022-10-13 16:41:19 +0000 UTCWhile I was watching this it suddenly occurred to me what if Taylor is one of y’alls patrons? We know she knows of your existence so it’s possible.
Mequet
2022-10-13 15:57:29 +0000 UTCIt is a deeply personal topic, but I think having kiddos would scare Taylor because right now all her energy is devoted to her art. We know from interviews from 10 years ago to this year that she gets a melody in her head, drops everything, and needs to record it. Can you do that if you’re looking after a child? And in her parents, she sees two people that dropped EVERYTHING for her. Moved to a new state for her. Can she do that? I hope she and other women realize that they don’t need to choose IF they have the right support system. Supportive partner, family, and friends who can be there when they can’t! Showing up IS important, but you can’t be there ALL the time!! I worry about that social media trend showing kids light up when they see their parents in the crowds at events. It IS absolutely wonderful. But just as important is making kiddos aware of how much you still support them even when they can’t make it to that soccer game or that recital.

2022-10-13 13:11:01 +0000 UTCDon’t know if anyone’s said this or if you get there eventually (I’m only like 5 mins in lol) but in the yellow room you were saying why are they upside down on the roof and why is there little ducks - the ducks possibly an Easter egg for the chicks being featured on the album, and ‘on the roof with a school girl crush’ ? Maybe I’m reaching
Josie Bicknelle
2022-10-13 11:39:01 +0000 UTCseriously you guys make me so so happy with your videos and also they are really comforting <333 just thank you for being who you are, because you two are really amazing 🥰
Nele
2022-10-13 11:13:06 +0000 UTCLOVE the new backdrop girls, and I also said the same thing to my sister a while back, like oh my god what if this song and album confirmed for us that they were engaged ALL THE WAY back then and we just didn't really pick up on it as being her directly telling us?.... I also agree with you guys that if they are married (which I kind of really think they are), she'll one day reveal it in a song or video etc and not say more. We know that ofc her and Joe will then get asked SO much about the day in interviews and all that but they've always managed to dodge questions about their relationship so I'm sure they could manage 😭❤️ Also from what we know from her songs (SPECIFICALLY peace !!!), it's kinda clear to me she does want a child but who knows when😭

2022-10-13 09:14:54 +0000 UTCThis was such a lovely video to watch with you, Lover is definitely one of my favourite videos of Taylor's ever. :)
Leilani Willcox
2022-10-13 08:46:30 +0000 UTCI love this for you!!! I can say It’s the best feeling to have just your rules ♥️
Daniela
2022-10-13 05:39:07 +0000 UTCEvery time I watch one of your videos I say it’s my favorite but this one is definitely in the top 5!!! You made me laugh so much 😂. I would die if Taylor has a kid, or if she is married, or if we could see a picture of her with her baby and joe in a wedding dress hahaha RIP me 👰🏼♀️🤵🏼♂️👶🏻👨👩👧. Like can you imagine their baby??? I can’t 🫠
Daniela
2022-10-13 05:34:12 +0000 UTCSuch an awesome video and discussion! These are my comfort videos when I’m stressed and this one just felt particularly comfy. Love the tangents, love the new backdrop and loved the breakdown! I truly did not fathom almost any of this about the music video before and didn’t love it yet because I didn’t understand it! Thank you for all this wise Lover info
Harley Goul
2022-10-13 04:31:30 +0000 UTCBonus tracks revealed! So excited for them!
Alice
2022-10-13 04:21:35 +0000 UTCThank you for another lovely video. I love your background. It looks better with being able to see the albums you have on display. It also still looks cozy. I don't know how I feel about the house because folklore and Evermore were recorded during and because of the pandemic. Thinking like that Taylor could not have known about those albums. I do love this video. I also think Taylor wantswrdd marriage and at least one child. I believe they are getting married soon. I believe this will be a very hush hush wedding. I do hope she lets us know after they are married. Once again thank you for such a lovely video. Hope you are having a wonderful time in Paris. Lots of love. See you in the midnights video!

2022-10-13 04:14:49 +0000 UTCNooo I did not consider thisss
Hannah Stiff
2022-10-13 04:11:20 +0000 UTCOFFENSIVE as always!! I do love this song. It's so dreamy. 😍 Also, if you are seeing these little links to marriage/commitment in her songs, have you fathomed Cowboy Like Me's last line in the bridge "But that was all before I LOCKED IT DOWN" 💀
Jaimie C
2022-10-13 01:37:30 +0000 UTCThe fearless room having a board game and rubber ducks and being playful very much gives “future nursery” to me. Not saying that’s what she was suggesting but that child like joy makes me feel like that.
Hannah Stiff
2022-10-13 01:16:27 +0000 UTCloveeeee this
kienan
2022-10-13 01:01:27 +0000 UTCAgreed on the house situation - I definitely feel an intentional coordination for the main rooms, but this MV was created in 2019, no chance she could have foreseen the pandemic and we know from the Long Pond Sessions etc. that folklore and evermore were unplanned projects. I think it's mostly happy coincidence there were extra rooms and vaguely similar colourschemes (but even this - in the closeups the staircase is actually a pinky purple white room, and the ladder room is white and yellow). She's a genius, but she couldn't have predicted the shitstorm that was coming 😂
Philippa
2022-10-13 01:01:05 +0000 UTCI have always felt it could also be symbolic of how Fearless was really her breakout album, begun her international career and really launched her to the world stage - so the metaphor of having her life "turned upside down" might reflect this :)
Philippa
2022-10-13 00:56:08 +0000 UTCSome random comments: 1. Love the background; I too think this is the one. It lets you have multiple vinyls, like Emily says. 2. I see that Emily is not a Lover stan, and I can accept that. But Lover is a classic song that will outlive all of us. It is like White Christmas or something; it will go on and on. Not many people can write a 100-year song, and Taylor did with this one. It is like it doesn't really matter if any of us like it or not; it is just classic. 3. Love the discussion of music as Taylor's home and Joe being comfortable in it. I am personally not a believer in the theory that the Lover house predicts the future; I just don't buy that one of the rooms represents folklore or evermore or Midnights. I love Taylor, but she can't see the future. But the past albums, yes. 4. I did not get the metaphor of the fishbowl as her life before, but it makes so much sense. She does live in a fishbowl! 5. I think Taylor is playing the drums. My family has professional musicians in it, and they can do anything. They are just around music so often, that they pick up how to do the basics of every instrument. I'm not saying Taylor could play the drums well enough to be in her own band, but I totally believe she could do the basics. Look how comfortable she looks plucking the violin, too. 6. I think Taylor both wants to get married and wants to have children. I don't think having children has to stop her from writing songs; she could easily hire multiple live-in nannies. She may not be ready, of course, and she may be very nervous about bringing a child into her complicated life. That is what I would be most worried about actually, in her position. It would not be easy growing up as the child of Taylor Swift. Anyway, thank you as always! Loved this and loved the metaphor songs Youtube video. Obviously looking forward to Midnights!!!!!

2022-10-13 00:20:56 +0000 UTCThis is so true, when I watch some of their breaking down videos I always go back to listen to the songs in a completely different way, it just gives you a new perspective that brings a lot more depth to the song 😍😍
Lissa
2022-10-13 00:15:03 +0000 UTCYour pre-viewing chat inspired me to share: lover has always meant the world to me because when I first heard it -- the lyrics "can I go where you go" made me sob -- my boyfriend and I had been in a long distance relationship for 3 years at the time and that simple feeling of just wanting to always be with him hit me hard. "this is our place we make the rules" really captured all I ever wanted for us -- now we've been living together for almost a year now <3 can't wait to leave the christmas lights up til January for the first time :)
Megan Waller
2022-10-13 00:05:29 +0000 UTCAbout the kids though, I feel like you grow up dreaming about love and less about having kids because you’re still one yourself, so I find it interesting that she does mention them occasionally which makes me think it’s something on her mind. “We’ll rock our babies on that very front porch,” never grow up, peace, and then in the lover and everything has changed MVs. WHICH then led me down a rabbit hole theory wondering if Everything Has Changed is literally about having a kid!!! All my days I’ll know your face, all I’ve seen since 18 hrs ago (when the baby was born) is green eyes…, all I know is a simple name and everything has changed (I.e. naming your child)! There are definitely some lines that don’t fit 😅 but there are a LOT that do so it’s really interesting that she then made herself a mother in the MV. I’m 💯 not saying she had a kid that long ago, in general the song is about meeting someone and your life changing for the better, so I think it’s sweet that she made it that type of relationship in the MV. Or she could have been imagining Andrea’s experience becoming a mom or something like that

2022-10-13 00:03:51 +0000 UTCThis was so fun!! I love you both always dissecting Taylor’s songs! It helps me so much! Love you both… from Houston Tx! I also love your outfit Bonnie! ♥️♥️♥️❌⭕️👏🏻👏🏻💯🎼👩🏻❤️👩🏼
Kim Levy
2022-10-12 23:45:21 +0000 UTCokay have to talk about the pre-video convo 😂😂 I actually 100% agree with you guys about how listening to other people’s thoughts/perceptions of a song can really make you feel differently! a few examples of songs I was meh about before your breakdown videos: death by a thousand cuts (sorry lol), dorothea, mirrorball (I liked this one a lot more after TAYLOR “broke it down” in the long pond studio session), cowboy like me (!!!!!!!!), getaway car. and now I love so many of these I think it’s just so interesting that after hearing you guys rave & talk about these songs, I find a new appreciation for them! and it makes me love the albums, Taylor, and you guys even more for shining some different lights on things 🤍

2022-10-12 23:34:39 +0000 UTCAlso nothing makes me happier than the long tangents when the songs/videos have only played for a few seconds lol you two are thee best <3 <3

2022-10-12 23:31:51 +0000 UTCthe fact that midnights might be the next video we get from yall is offensive and scary

2022-10-12 23:31:32 +0000 UTCFearless room being upside down with a similar color scheme as Harry's House.... very interesting...
kienan
2022-10-12 23:30:16 +0000 UTCI totally agree that this song has never been one that I really go back and listen to. And then oddly enough I chose to walk down the aisle to a strings-only acoustic version of this song at my wedding 😂 those violins just getcha
Erin
2022-10-12 23:21:01 +0000 UTCThese in depth convos about her music and the videos and her career it is all so comfy and i love the set up as well it feels like we are all just hanging out chatting about Taylor. God i LOVE this corner of the internet and the space you have both created. Forever grateful🥹🥹🥹💓🫶🏼🫶🏼
Yuli
2022-10-12 22:55:36 +0000 UTCWhat does it mean that evermore is represented in the house? I thought evermore was an unplanned surprise album, but if its in the house, was it actually planned this whole time?
