"April Fools video that is actually totally sincere" is, I think, my favorite genre of video. I really like how more and more youtubers have been using the "excuse" of April Fools to make stuff that's kind of weird and outside their wheelhouse and maybe conceptually silly, but that is clearly an actual video they sincerely wanted to do.

@@luckas221a I find Taylormania to be interesting, but I'm even more fascinated by the TSwift-hater phenomenon. Are you really a TS hater, or are you being a bit overdramatic? Anyway, this seems like a safe space in which rational conversation could potentially happen, so I will go ahead and assume, for the moment that are you actually a hater and ask: What do you hate about her? Her personality? Her wealth (no such things as an ethical billionaire, etc.), Her music? Assuming, for a moment, that it's her music, then I'd be curious to know how much you've heard beyond her pop radio hits. I've been searching for a TS hater who has heard a lot of her discography but still insists that she is overrated, etc. So far I've had no luck finding a person of that sort. When I find a genuine hater, it always turns out that what they hate is her pop radio hits; they don't really know much of her music beyond that. Alternatively, if they do know a lot of her discography, then it turns out that they are not actually haters in the sense of the terms that interests me. To say "she's talented, but I'm not a fan of her music" is not to be a hater, in my book. I would never expect everyone to love her music. But to insist that she has no significant artistic talent - that is where I become interested and would like to know more about which songs the hater has or has not heard.

@luckas221a 4 ай бұрын

@@gaylenwoof nah i’m an actual hater. I despise everything she represents. Her mediocrity being sold as revolutionary, her fans putting her against other icons of the music industry to the point of using her image to undermine others, her carelessness and lack of compassion (she went to Brazil and failed to even acknowledge the fact that a fan of hers passed away during her concert due to her and the venue’s poor planning). NTM she’s a very online person (or, at least, was) and has always failed to comment on any of the terrible things her fans say and do on the internet. I’m unconvinced that there could be a way she doesn’t know that some of her fans spread hate to other artists on her behalf. I think she’s a shoddy songwriter and lyricist, her stage presence and performances don’t impress me, her personality is boring… Just all-around, I really do just dislike everything about the TS zeitgeist. I can’t speak on her as a person, but some things about her public life give hints that I probably wouldn’t like her much.

@luckas221a 4 ай бұрын

@@gaylenwoof Also, I do feel the need to admit that I keep listening to her music to see if I like something, and I almost never do lol… When 1989 came out, I actually really enjoyed a couple of songs, mainly Wildest Dreams. I also really like some unserious pop so the half-ironic Look What You Made Me Do and Bad Blood, Shake It Off, I can also admit I danced to a little. lol But even then and before then, I’ve always been distasteful of how she sold herself with this humble hometown girl image, when her father bought major stock of her record label so he could help her career, and reportedly purchased millions of copies of her first album to help her get an impressive debut. I think she’s manufactured, and even though I do like some “industry plants” and don’t think there’s anything particularly immoral about the phenomenon, TS just leaves a sour taste in my mouth.

@simplycookies 4 ай бұрын

I think that's one of Taylor Swift's biggest talents, is making a situation very niche to her, incredibly relatable. Digging to the core of the emotions, wants, and needs of a situation, while also making the situation specific enough that it's still hers, and yet vague enough that anybody could relate. I mean folklore and evermore as albums are at their core about her losing the rights to her masters, something that would be incredibly hard to sympathize with normally. And yet it has songs of betrayal and hurt and loss that so so many people can relate to. I mean you're here relating to a song about buying a mansion another millionaire once owned, because it's so much more than just that, and I think it's why her and her music are so beloved 🎸

Really love that different kind of content and exploration of music! (As a swift fan myself ofc its just a perfect video for me hehe) And I really enjoyed how one line in the bridge caught your attention so much and changed the way you look at the song. Thats such and awesome feeling and I totally get it! For me that was with "You are in love" (also from Taylor Swift). The whole song is about what its like to be in love and then in the bridge she says "and now you understand [...] why I've spent my whole life trying to put it into words". That made me go "oh, yeah I like that one!" As writer myself (wordbuilding and short story writing that is) that line somehow really resonated with me and made me view the song in a totally different light. Like yeah... I understand that feeling of "trying to tell something with my work over and over again because its to grand to be captured in one piece". It's nothing deep or some epic analysis, I know that :D but it stuck with me nontheless Great video, really awesome to see your interpretation of this song 🪇🥳

And i was entranced by your interpretation, but still felt like you were ignoring a very real and important fact. And then you explained why you did all that, and you acknowledged all the points I'd thought about. It's incredible how a simple reframing of the artist can change entire interpretations.

I came to a much more critical interpretation of the song/a question about it, over the course of the video (which you touch on at the end): If Swift engages in mythmaking about a rich woman getting richer, framing her as a humble middle-class women, what is the mythmaking she, a billionaire, engages in about herself? Painting Rebekkah and her wealth in a good light also means painting herself in a good light, which to me seems like the flipside of this creative arrogance, an attempt to cast herself in a more sympathetic light, even though she bought the fucking ESTATE. I appreciate and understand your analysis, but it kinda fell flat for me, because the "Eat the Rich" voice in me was to loud on that one. PS: You've got a great singing voice.

this is a very interesting reading of the song! i am a fan of taylor's and honestly many of my favorite songs of hers are ones which address or ponder on her place on the culture, her stardom and what comes with it, just because it's such a unique position to write about that only a person as big as her can access and describe, even though (of course) she can only do it as an unreliable narrator. "mirrorball" and "peace" are big standouts of her career for me because of that.

Love this. Class critique, history, gossip and rumor, and a Middle- class divorcée. Never had a desire to look up Swift's catalogue before now. Might do so. See what all that fuss is about. 🎸

I immediately knew which lyric you were talking about, it was truly an experience we all shared listening for the first time. I'm curious if there's any more songs from folklore and evermore you think about often like this? I feel like I could write an entire essay about cowboy like me
