appreciation post for those high, delicate notes in last kiss, like when she sings “end like this” and “why did you go away, away?” because the pure emotion and fragility of taylor’s voice in that song contribute so much to its full effect
me explaining to my non swiftie friends that’s it’s significant how Last Kiss ends with the word last and not kiss because you never know which one will actually be your last kiss and it’s yet another genius lyrical choice by the greatest songwriter of our generation
hello i have questions about the 150 songs taylor wrote before she was 16, the 30 minute version of all too well, what scott meant when he said “taylor has so many unreleased songs that didnt make reputation” and what taylor means when she said “but even after i made the album, i kept writing and going in the studio”
This was…. a whole entire journey. An epic adventure. A thrilling saga. An exhilarating experience. A feat. A revelation. A layered and highly exciting performance. Thirteen stars.
wow…a homeowner…so responsible

Taylor Swift albums + last lines
James Corden Responds to Bill Maher’s Fat Shaming Take
Okay but I love that we end Lover with Taylor saying that love is golden.
Do you know what it takes to make gold? You have to mine ore, which contains small amounts of gold. The ore is crushed into sand and agitated in a tank. When they finally separate out the heavy metals, they have to smelt it at 1600 degrees to get rid of the impurities in the metals. Then you have gold.
Love is the same way. You have to go out and be in the world and find someone to love. Then you go through life with that person. Sometimes you feel crushed; sometimes you’re agitated with each other; you go through things that could destroy you. BUT if you stick it out and continue to love each other through it all, what you have together is golden.
How freaking poetic is that??
I haven’t seen anything about Afterglow yet which is an international travesty. That song is a gem about self-sabotage and forgiveness and knowing you have messed up, but being unable to stop. And knowing you hurt someone you love is the worst feeling. But you can move past it and get stronger and your relationship is that much better because of your mistakes.
This song is literally a deep dive into the line from “you understand now why they lost their minds and fought the wars”. There is a vulnerability in a relationship where you want someone to “tell me that we’ll be just fine even when I lose my mind”. And if you can get past your insecurities, all the “exes, fights, and flaws we wouldn’t be standing here so tall” and then you know why love was worth it.
This song is so underrated in it’s ability to perfectly capture the tough sides of a relationship
I wanna be defined by the things that I love, not the things I hate, not the things that I’m afraid of, I’m afraid of, not the things that haunt me in the middle of the night, I, I just think that you are what you love
scooter really paid 300 million dollars for taylor to turn around and re-record all of her music huh
What if she also releases B sides for each remastered album? What if we get Dark Blue Tennessee, Battle, and all those other unreleased songs? Imagine getting songs that didn't make the cut for 1989 or RED or Fearless.
Us: “Taylor should re-record her back catalog”
Media: “Lol, she can’t do that it’s too much work”
Taylor:
Wait she announced that she was re-recording her masters on a Wednesday. “On a Wednesday in a cafe I watched it begin again” anyone?!?!?
