"I feel slightly emotional and I don't know why" absolutely sums up the experience of listening to Taylor Swift lolol she just tugs something deeeep down that feels so personal.

I wish she had made this into a music video because I can see it so clearly I can see a girl in the 1940s having this breakup happen, she runs outside, gets hit by a car, and then goes back into the restaurant not realizing she's dead. She's a ghost sitting in the corner for decades, still upset that he broke up with her, feeling like it just happened and the world keeps moving around her & she's totally unaware it's not the 1940's anymore & is just replaying the scene in her head over and over

I really love this song, I agree with you. Taylor can describe the feeling of trauma so so well. At times you’re mind goes back and you’re in a daze, frozen, remembering everything, sometimes down to the scents, sounds, and every detail. You could see, smell and hear everything. 😢

This song hits me like no other Taylor Swift song. My wife left me in 2013 after 41 years together, divorced me two years ago. Everyone tells me to move on but I can't. She is the most perfect human being I've ever met and has my heart. I'm stuck. To quote Taylor in Hoax, "Don't want no other shade of blue but you, no other sadness in the world would do." As much as it pains me to not see her, even if I'd have known this would happen, I would have married her anyway in 1972, she is that wonderful.

@@mendwithmere Chuck Lorre of The Big Bang Theory fame said it best in one of his Vanity Cards. He said that we don't give our heart away, somebody steals it. For me to get unstuck, it would have taken another woman to steal my heart away from Val. I've met many wonderful women since my separation (Taylor did say "There's a lot of cool chicks out there") but none even came close to being able to wrestle my heart away from the woman who's had it since 1971. I so love your reactions and analyses.

@@kosmikpixie I’m so sorry. You didn’t deserve it but if she left you, she wasn’t the right one. So it’s pointless and damaging to you to say that she was the best. Maybe she was, but now she isn’t, so it means there’s another one better for sure. We are the one that decide if we move on with our lives, and we can choose how to treat ourselves. So treat yourself with love and value, she can’t steal it if you say no.

I thought at first it was a break up song but listening to this again and again and again made me understand why I actually felt like this song descibed me. It's literally my feelings and the feelings of so many people written in verses, singed with music and I feel so safe knowing that there's actually someone who cares and understands how difficult it is to move on especially at a young age

The ticking sound that starts after the bridge reminds me of a big grandfather clock, hinting again about someone being stuck in time whilst her partners life is ticking on/continuing (wife, kids and Christmas). I have experienced a traumatic breakup at 23 too (he broke up the day after my dad’s funeral after he committed suicide) my ex is now married and expecting a child with his wife. I am happy for him, yet still mourning the relationship we had almost six years later, safe to say this is the most personal and my favorite Taylor Swift song. In The Great War she also sings “your finger on my hair pin triggers” which made me think of RWYLM. Perhaps the trauma of her earlier break up triggered her to react in the way she describes in TGW, almost loosing her current relationship.

This is my most favourite song from Taylor next to Wildest Dreams. I can relate to this song 100% every line in the lyrics hits home but I manage to move on but kept the happy and hurtful part of this in me because I feel comfortable living with it but never let it take control of me. 😍

Plus, the hair pin line, makes me think of how the trauma makes you consumed in your thoughts, thoughts that eat away at your senses and nerves. You suddenly regain your awareness of what’s happening around you, hyper focused, and the smallest sound startles you. Being startled takes you back to your fear of the trauma, fixated on the moment around you, but the past makes an emotional revolution in your existence as your mind spirals. You feel ridiculous to be scared by a small inanimate object falling, but you know its significance when such small noises meant the difference between life and death.

@maggieo1683 25 күн бұрын

Or, the opposite happens- when trauma occurs, you dissociate and you "leave your body" and become numb to the world around you. Sound becomes muffled, you can't see straight, and you think you feel something like upset, fear, or other overwhelm, or something physical like your body shaking, but you can't quite connect to whatever it is your feeling. (At least as someone who has been diagnosed with C-PTSD and depersonalization-derealization disorder, this has been my experience)

@cerseiuwu7031 Жыл бұрын

This songs hits so hard. I really feel nothing about my ex, I've moved on and I'm married and happy now, but Taylor captured SO WELL the trauma of being left and frozen in time(also my Maladaptive daydreaming disorder went WILD), that I just start crying about how hurt I was. Like, nothing related to the person I lost, but that terrifying feeling of seeing things changing, people growing, doing their lifes, and you are still caught in that moment forever. It took me 5 years, crying everyday because I new the time was passing and I was trapped.

For me, this song hits way too close to home, cause my ex had a restaurant where I used to spend all my days and nights, just standing there watching him being himself and enjoying his work and growing and just admiring him so much. And I, sometimes, still feel at his restaurant, still sitting in the corner (I haunt). When I was still the one he wanted. It is so painful to feel frozen in time like this. You see and know that everybody moves on, but you. So you're just right there, where they left you.

Thanks for all your content! I recently started listening to TS during the latter half of 2022 (primarily Folklore and Evermore) and your analysis has helped me process a lot of what I went through and move forward. Also didn’t realize until now just how incredible that bridge/pre-chorus is from a songwriting standpoint; you’d think it goes back to the chorus, but it rambles on saying she’s causing no harm, driving the point that she’s really stuck at that restaurant. Thanks again!

I was in a relationship for 8 years with a narcissist. It was an emotionally abusive relationship. I also experienced childhood trauma. This song has more vibes about abandonment and repeating old patterns. Fortunately, I've had therapy and reconnecting with a therapist soon. It takes time to work through that trauma and break away from the same patterns that you normalized growing up and even in adulthood. I feel more confident that I'm healing but that past trauma comes in waves. Thank you for this video. It puts things into perspective.

As you've discovered already by analyzing some of folklore, evermore, and Midnights, Taylor often writes metaphorically. I agree with your suspicion that this obvious break-up song is far more than just that. I think she's singing about her old label's owner and the trauma she felt with his betrayal.

I will forever love this song, because it’s literally how I’ve been feeling for the past two years. I’ve always struggled with self love, and I’m still struggling with it. I’m 17 and it feels like everyone in my life is moving on and thinking about what they’re gonna do after high school, and I’m just stuck there in time wishing I could be a child again. I also struggle with binging and a soda addiction. I keep telling myself that I’ll change, that I’ll workout but I never can stick to it. My grandma also passed away a year ago, and she was basically my mom bc my mom passed when I was 2. So yeah, I just feel like I’m just stuck and I’ll never move on.

This is always been one of my fav songs, but it's rlly hit close to home lately. My girlfriend recently broke up with me, and the experience has been just like these lyrics. My favorite one is "breakups happen everyday you don't have to lose it", bc frankly I Lowkey feel like a lunatic, and am still embarrassed Abt how much it's affected me. It was all just so surprising, and out of nowhere, and I was so convinced I was going to marry her - we had already made such in-depth life plans, and she made me so many promises. This video was very healing though. Ive never hear of Acute Stress Syndrome, and the little I knew about stress disorders was that they had to be caused by some objectively traumatizing event, like a severe car crash. Ig really tho, it makes sense that something so seemingly small can leave just as big of an impact, bc its just as surprising, unexpected, and life changing Thank you :-)

This song hurts me so much. My parents announced their divorce right before Christmas 2020. I was 20 years old, had just moved out a couple of months ago for the first time, and it was so sudden because they were getting along so well. It was my worst fear as a kid, and it came true. And to make matters worse, other bad things happened with my then-friends in the following months in 2021. I went through severe depression and had to go to an inpatient program. I’m doing much better now. However, I sometimes get stuck there still, and it really keeps me from moving on and being happy at times.

He got with the girl he cheated with and I was still hurt and coming to terms with the fact that I wouldn’t be with the person I thought I would have a life with back then. I was single for years and stuck on what could have been. This song really captured all of the feelings I had back then. Still hurts to hear now, even though I’ve moved on from the situation. It still hurts for the me who went through it.

Not to get too wildly down a controversial rabbit hole, but there are a lot of theories that this is about a breakup that left the protagonist in the closet because the other person didn’t want to be outed (in particular the like hairpin drop vs how the phrase is usually just pin drop). Regardless of the connection to real life, I find that a very emotional interpretation.

I would also LOVE to hear you react to “hits different” on the Walmart cd of midnights which follows a lot of the themes you cover in this video, the lack of moving on etc.

Hi! Yes, I totally missed that reference for hairpin drop and now it is changing everything for me with this song. I am going to be analyzing the cardigan/august/Betty saga and how this relates to being in the closet in high school. I’ll cover it most in Betty. I may redo this song bc that interpretation rips my heart out.

You said a hairpin dropping means that it was silent, but the actual phrase for that is “you could hear a PIN drop,” not a hairpin. The term “hairpin drop” is specifically tied to the Stonewall Riots, known as “the hairpin drop heard around the world.” “Hairpin drop” is a slang term for letting people know you are gay through a subtle hint. Knowing that hairpin drop is a queer flag, it’s interesting she chose to use the lyric “you could hear a hairpin drop” rather than “you could hear a pin drop”

Victoria!! Thank you for this. You are so right. Hate that I missed this. Did you watch Lavender Haze? I think there is a queer flag there. Lemme know your thoughts.

Ok sorry If this is out nowhere but Mere if you see this comment plase just do a couple things first go to the song no body no crime from Taylor Swift and after you listen to that one re listen to this song and Ask someone to explain the backstory behind these two songs there's a Theory about the first song no body no crime and this song right where you left me is kinda like part 2 (Although that is not confirmed by Taylor Swift) Side note:I really wanna know your opinion on this cause I was really confused about this first I don't wanna spoil stuff

As in most songs on Folklore, she tells a story that's not based on her life or anyways not so related to her. In this one particularly, it's the pov of Este, who's been murdered in No Body, No crime and is now stuck as a ghost in her corner at Olive Garden. Or at least, it's a theory that's basically canon ever since she made the "ladies lunching chapter" where she put every song of folklore that talked about a female protagonist, and nobody got why this was in until we noticed it was right after No Body, No crime

A therapist that delivers pseudo medical views on pop culture media NEEDS to have their medical license revoked. I'm disgusted by this person!! This is not how to provide therapy. You are hurting people, not helping them.

Hi! So Im not providing therapy to anyone on my channel nor do I believe that would be appropriate. Im a therapist and a human being that is allowed to react to music from my viewpoint. Im not providing medical advice, it’s my personal reaction.
