I really really need your reaction on No Body No Crime. You can see how good of a storyteller Taylor is with that song!
No Body No Crime, yessss
You were right on! The point of this song IS to make you sympathize with the other woman. Many artists would and have approached the topic of a love affair by writing an angry, bitter song calling out the other person for “stealing their partner”. It’s an overused trope, and Taylor realized this. I think she talked about it in the long pond sessions. She mentioned that we rarely consider how the other woman is feeling, and we tend to forget she’s still human. Taylor wanted to write a trio of songs that makes the listener consider how ALL of the parties in the love triangle are hurting.
The other woman was a teenage girl who was having her first relationship. She was deeply invested... she didn’t know he was thinking about someone else whilst in bed with her. She will have got badly hurt too.
They are talking about the month August. Hence the line “so much for SUMMER love” and you’ll see in Betty that James (the boyfriend) doesn’t think it was love…it was a “summer thing”.
This is true, but Taylor has also said I think that she thinks of this girl's name as August or Augustina as well. Which kind of changes the line 'August slips away' because it's more like she's losing herself in James, not just the summer.
@@amyjanef the affair was in August, the "summer love" line confirms it, but Taylor really had no name to the sidechick, so she named her Augustine referencing what happened to her that month
At 7:04 when mans said “all the sounds” - I felt that
😂😂😂 same
You should do all of folklore and evermore, including the bonus tracks.
Yesss
Yesssss
Yes!!!!!
Him: I feel bad for this girl
Taylor: mission accomplished!
You said it best. that's what Taylor tried to detail in this song. Taylor said in the long pond studio sessions explaining this song that society and people have this stereotype that "the other girl" whose the one sleeping with the boyfriend is this evil woman who all she wants is to sabotage and ruin someone else's life. but in reality that woman, what she wants is to be loved and wants to be happy herself.
I think illicit affairs does a good job of humanizing “the other woman” as well.
As someone who was once "the other woman" (nearly 10 years ago), I was lied to by my affair. He told me he loved me again and again until I believed him. He told me his real girlfriend was verbally abusive and mentally unstable and that he didn't know how to get away from her. Well, turns out that was all a lie. He just wanted to fuck several women. But it was easy to persuade myself that he actually loved me, easy to ignore the guilt I felt whenever I was with him, only to break down whenever he left. I always imagined us ending up married and with children. Completely ridiculous, but I was 19 and ready to believe him... I am still embarrassed and I still feel guilty to this day.
I love illicit affairs. It resonates so much with me. Taylor's songwriting is sooo impressive!
This song is my first love for Folklore. Such a good, sad song.
for me listening to August is like getting kicked in the chest like when you feeling losing something so close to you but you don't get to be upset cause it was never yours to begin with, i really felt that shit, Taylor done it again
Fr you don't have to be a mistress and to be in that situation first to feel relatable of this song, most of her stuff is relatable because it can be interpreted as anything
Love how you take reactions seriously and for the however few minutes the song lasts, you seem to actually care about the story and the meaning, you do a great job at them, regardless of how much I agree with you or not, your videos are always nice to watch :)
absolutely!
Yes, Taylor does a very good job capturing emotions.
Taylor said the name of "the other girl" is Augustine so you can see this in a different light. "August slip away" meaning both the memory of the month AND the girl named August will "slip away" from James' mind.
I feel like she retconned that but we love her anyway
honestly one of my favorite songs from her, ever
My man is working his ass off with these reaction vids lol. We appreciate ya
I cried when I first heard this song because it reminded me EXACTLY of a “relationship” I had in high school. We were together in secret because he wasn’t supposed to date but also I knew he liked another girl and I was just the filler because she didn’t like him. Also I was a couple months older so I drove him around a lot in the beginning and I was his first kiss (and a little more 👀). He ended up moving away at the end of the summer before the next school year and it just broke my heart so much even though I was just this secret he had. The song I related to for us back then was “Dirty Little Secret” by All American Rejects, funny but also sad lol
Also, I would love to get “living for the hope of it all” tattoo because that is exactly how I live life. Love this song and so glad you’re enjoying what you’re hearing so far!!! She’s impeccable at writing about the human experience and emotions.
One of my favorites! It’s like she’s sad but she also knows she gonna be ok?
Can’t wait for Betty! It connects it all
Yeaaaa!!! August!!! One of my most favorite song from 'folklore' ♥️♥️♥️
The way you said "oooo all the sounds..." when the music swelled was simply wonderful :D
To me, this is the fitting centerpiece of the greatest album ever recorded. It was the start of the most rewarding musical year of my life, rediscovering an artist I mainly (and unintentionally) ignored for 15 or so years. Yes, she is the best at capturing emotion and expressing that emotion so eloquently. One of the greatest songwriters of the past 100 years. Once you’re done reacting, you should listen to folklore (and evermore) straight through (including the bonus tracks) 1000 times. You won’t ever stop.
It is gorgeous.. that bridge, the melody, the lyrics, the storytelling...the way it plays out.., an absolute masterpiece
Favorite song from Folklore 💙
Please do all too well by her. We're getting the full 10 minute version in November and I'm so excited
also, when it says “meet me behind the mall” its not just about hiding and going behind places so they’re not seen, but it also means like “meet me behind them all” which is mind blowing to me
“never have i ever before” makes me think they're playing a game called never have i ever, maybe to get to know each other better, or just for fun
I saw it as more of never have I ever had sex before or the very least had a summer fling before
Taylor songs are like diamonds 😍 masterpieces
This song is so freaking good
It’s twice in one album that Taylor makes you feel bad for the “other woman” (you should listen to the other one-the bridge in illicit affairs breaks me). Betty (next song) is about Betty from James’s perspective. We see the narrator from august in that song - she “pulls up in her car” and it’s interesting to see the way she sees that moment here in august, vs the way James describes it (and her) in Betty. You should go listen to cardigan again after! Cardigan takes place YEARS after Betty and August.
a bit of a change from Better than Revenge, when she was all about blaming the other girl. Age brings a change of perspective
@@robertthompson7242 Better than Revenge is a song Taylor has said she regrets. She hasn't performed it live since she toured that album. I will be interested to see what, if anything, she changes about it when she rerecords.
Fun Fact: James, Inez and Betty were named after Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively's 3 girls. Apparently they are all very good friends irl.
they filmed all too well (the short film) at their house
What I really love about TSwift is with this story, it would be SOOO easy to vilify this girl, the "other woman," cuz the trope often exists that the other woman is a stone cold bitch lol, but it's a very tender bittersweet aspect of the triangle. I really appreciate the lack of villianizing ❤
I can't wait for your betty reaction
This s beautiful and she seems to take us with her to live those moments - I feel like I was there with her. Thank you for such a nice and thoughtful reaction, it was lovely
That bridge is so gorgeous
We need some iconic 2010s taylor song songs in the mix. React to black space, love story, you belong with me and shake it off. These are her 4 biggest songs
Best song on folklore, second is mirrorball. And that's on what? Periodt
As someone who has regrettably been in Augustine's position, this one really hurts
This was the other girl's POV. Taylor did say she pictured the girl's name to be Augusta or Augustine but she is un-named in the triangle (it kind of shows that she isn't important enough and no one knows her name).
Didn't she name her Augustine on her folklore's one year anniversary post ?
Taylor said her name was Augustine in Folklore Long Pond Studio Sessions
Loved ur reaction buddy. Love how u focus on her lyrics bc that's what we love about her her lyrics.
Pls react to more of this album n especially "this is me trying " it's so good n about mental health n stuff.
❤❤❤
Yeah
Indian Swifte 🔥❤️
@@rahulmathur8405 yes 😎
We r superior bestie.
@@rahulmathur8405 Yes Indian Swiftie!
I just love this so much. She does have the ability to capture emotions and pull them out of you even when you don’t want to feel, if that even makes sense?! Oh, you know what you need to add to the list if you haven’t already, “No Body No Crime.” I’d be very interested to see what your thoughts would be on that one if / when you get time. Thanks for another great video 💫
But look at the double sense in this lyric: meet me behind the mall also meet me behind them all... her mind 🤯
i’d be the happiest person if you reacted to every song on folklore and evermore 🥺
You have to check out reputation after these whole folklore and evermore thing
BEEN WAITING FOR THIS!
Love your reaction! 😍
She's good with words... (lyric ""never before,,,are you sure etc"" i think she was virgin.)
You could also do "the lakes (original version) " and "exile" both are just awesome
I can't see that you've reacted to Betty, which is James' POV. I think you should have heard that before Cardigan or August. You'll be amazed at the lyrics that connect them. She's a writing genius!
Swifties why aren't we recommending Exile to him? 🙁🙁🙁🙁
Cuz it's bad
@@BAHTATS it's so fking good
I think it slipping away, and that "it was never mine" for Augustine is actually a really sad lyric. We've all been teenagers and she's not some terrible person and I like to think Augustine gained some wisdom from it that gave her a leg up in college and just a better intellect to navigate such complicated social circumstances.
And so the story goes with Cardigan, Betty and August. Thank you for a great review.
hating on the side chick in an overused trope. these 3 triangle songs make u empathize with each of the 3 involved characters
Omg love this sm!!
You dont know how fast i am to see this when your video was in my timeline
Now I'm more pumped for your Betty reaction✨
Amazing.... Love the song, love you reaction 👌
Meet me behind the mall
Meet me behind them all
"evermore" is a lyrical masterpiece. please react to every song. you wont regret it
taylor is so talented that she can make us picture the people that she writes about perfectly you know like i can close my eyes right now and im gonna see james and augustine together behind the mall, or she waiting for him to call, or when he comes back to apologize to betty and i absolutely love this
the lyric "Meet me behind the mall" it´s funny cause it sound like "Meet me behind them all" cause it´s a secret
Seven!!! It's the best song on folklore
Can you please react to her song “Exile” with Bon Iver. (I think that’s how you spell his name) and her song “ illicit affairs”
I beg for you to complete the trilogy with betty next so much omg hahaha. Thanks for reacting!
More Taylor Swift reaction
Moree taylor swiftt!!!! Subscribed only for more taylors reaction!
Fun to hear you interpretation and perspective.
Again it's amazing what you notice in a first listen. :) I hope you'll do Exile and the song Evermore as well. Especially Evermore. She sounds so great and vulnerable. But you should react to Exile first because it's on Folklore and then Evermore will surprise you in more than one way. I'd love to see My tears ricochet, Tis the damn season and The Lakes as well. xD
hello, can you react to "my tears ricochet". has one of the most interesting lyrics on the album
Amo a Taylor Swift, Nuevo suscriptor. Saludos desde República Dominicana.
love the reaction! can't wait for more
Illicit affairs next pls❤️
more taylor
I love your videos so much :)
more taylor swift please!!!!
You really need to Betty now. Also you should watch the long pond sessions on Disney +. She explains a lot of the songs on Folklore.
Easily one of my favorites. Cause it’s how I felt in that time. It was a sad situation for me but for me it ended good haha we’re together now for two years. But at first it was like an unsure thing… and he never wanted to be serious and it all went down in August as well. It was easy to relate to this song that’s it…
ICONIC....YASSSSSSDDD
You should react to the entire San Siro concert for One Direction
I'm sure someone told you this but just in case Jack Antonoff tweeted something to the effect of I could play august for the rest of my life and be happy. Are the long pond studio sessions on your patreon bc I love how you do these Taylor swift reactions. Im binge watching them now. I hope you are still doing them. If you don't answer this I'll ask you in discord.
can'tttt wait for the champagne problems reaction :)))

Hello! I know this was posted or quite sometime now, but if you wanna understand August’s pov better. Try and listen to “Illicit Affairs.” It will blow your mind.
