@cruelsummer3021 3 жыл бұрын

everybody's discussing the love triangle but i think the most haunting thing about this album is the symbolism in mirrorball. the way she is singing to her fans and the GP, disguised like a love song, "spinning in my highest heels love, shining just for you". and then "i'm still trying everything to get you laughing / looking at me" is so sad considering she has reinvented herself over and over again so she doesn't lose her stardom. it is such a sad song and i'm upset not everybody is talking about it.

While some of these songs are 'charcter based' they all 100% intertwine with taylor's life and her emotions. My tears ricohet is about losing her master and ex-label president scott, invisble strings, peace and hoax are straight up her and joe, mad woman is also about scott/scotter, the last great american dynasty is about the story behind her Rhode Island house, this is me trying, seven and mirrorball are about her, illict affairs, the 1 and exile are part her part character, betty, august and cardigan are the love triangle but definitely have aspects of her life in it e.g august is a very similar story to cruel summer. It's very interesting unpacking the songs and how they relate to her life and even if they're not all necessarily from her perspective, there is so much of her in there.

I'm gonna keep on saying it that mature Taylor is the best taylor. This album can't be compared to her previous work, because it's so different. This album seems, not only a new era, but the opening to a new age. It is the first chapter of a new book. This album showcases that Taylor Swift is more than just a pop singer/songwriter, she is one of the greatest songwriters of this generation. She doesn't need her personal life to write songs, she can create vivid character arcs and tell from their perspectives. This is a monumental shift in Taylor's career, one which is also her best, and one which will give folk music a new found appreciation. This is Taylor's best album, FIGHT ME. Speak Now and Red adopted Safe and Sound, sent it to college, there it perfected the craft of storytelling and came back as Folklore.

All true, but a the same time if/when she wants to revisit fun, fiery, big sounds then that's okay too. She's not obligated to make *everything* this deep, intimate, or emotional, it's just one of her many musical abilities that she's free to use or not use whenever the mood strikes her. And when she inevitably puts out something with "less" depth or "less" maturity, she shouldn't be dragged for it or labeled as a has been whose best stuff is behind her. (I say this because we saw people take this attitude after RED, and I'm thinking we'll see it ten fold now. The second she puts out something less intimate feeling everyone will flip the hell out about how she's """"turned shallow"""" and I'm already tired from All Too Well stans turning their noses up at 1989.)

Betty’s perspective: Cardigan The other woman’s perspective: August James’s perspective: Betty Some have argued illicit affairs belongs in the trio. It could be an overview of the event as a whole but the three songs listed above have connected lyrics and details. August mentions summer love and James said it was just a “summer thing” to Betty. In August the character says “remember when I pulled up and set get in the car” just like James said happened in his song. Cardigan mentions walking on cobblestone in high heels just like in Betty, James walks on “broken cobblestones.” Betty and Cardigan both reference “cardigans.” Cardigan alludes to cheating, “chase two girls, lose the one,” and James coming to Betty’s porch in both Cardigan and Betty. There are probably more details that I missed and there are probably other songs in the album that are from the same characters’ perspectives

Okay, okay, okay. Here's the thing with, "my tears richocet,"... Am I the only one who thought about the drama with her old label and Scooter? "I didn't have it in myself to go with grace," which she didn't, she spoke the hell out about it every single step of the way. "You know I didn't want to have to haunt you, but what a ghostly scene." She didn't wanna do anything she did but she was forced and look at the shit show that happened afterwards. "And when you can't sleep at night, you hear my stolen lullabies," self explanatory, about her songs that were given to him against her will, basically stolen. Almost every lyric can be traced back to that situation. Like, maybe I'm reaching but you can't convince me it's not about her old label and Scooter.

My tears ricochet is actually about her masters. She talks about her albums as jewels, which were taken from her by Scooter Braun and Scott Borchetta, which is why she says they bury her (her leaving the label, which she refers to as the home she can't go back to in the song.) She also talks about how hating her Brough Bruan and Borchetta together. The tears ricochet metaphor is that by screwing her over and hurting her they ended up hurting themselves too. Which is why she talks about Borchetta showing up to her wake cursing her name.

@MissNymwhen 3 жыл бұрын

I don't know why people saying its about scooter and scott BOTH. She said that it was a betrayal because she always hated Scooter. "I loved you, I swear I loved you", "crossing out the good years". It's not about Scooter at all. Its about Scott/the label. And about their relationship and how much she was hurt. I also felt like the line "I didnt have it in myself to go with grace" showed that she maybe also wished she handled it a bit differently herself. The song is a bit angry but mainly very sad. Part of her wished it went differently.
