Can you watch some Taylor swift music videos... Some good ones are 'look what you made me do', 'the man' and 'me' there are loads of Easter eggs in them that may give you some ideas for some theories
FUN FACT - in back to December, when Taylor says “and how u held me in your arms that September night, the first time u ever saw me cry” it’s actually about how Taylor lautner was there when Kanye walked on stage... and how backstage he was there when she was crying
Fabrizio: “I’ve never listen to a Taylor Swift album” *3 weeks later Fabrizio: “Number 5 track is the most vulnerable song” Congratulations, you are a real swiftie now
And it was the first of her 4 records to sell over a million copies in their week of release!! SHE did that 👑 Mind you, she's also the First artist in History to have done that!!! 🏆🎉✨ Ok ok im done now 😊
There is a difference between one party changing the rules without consulting the other party in the relationship as Dear John implies - as opposed to WE make the rules, implicating we together decide what the rules are in our house.
In Back to december, when she says "how you held me in your arms that september night, the first time you ever saw me cry" she's talking about taylor lautner comforting her after the episode with kanye west on VMA
I know but for me it feels much longer I’m 22 now and I swear I was 9 or 10 when it came out but no I was twelve when it came out but still it feel so far away
Couple of things you need to react now: I don't wanna live forever Ronan Grammy Museum Perfomances Holy Ground and Can't Stop loving (BBC radio performance) Tiny Desk Concert September Cover Single Better Man Beautiful Ghosts Christmas Tree Farm Fearless album debut album 1989 and reputation music videos okay bye
One of my favorite lyrics is in Last Kiss where she says "I feel you forget me like I used to feel you breathe" just..ughh. right in the feels especially after a break up
You can still appreciate Taylor's writing and style without liking country. I don't get why people don't seem to understand that. We love her for her writing and she's always written her own songs. It's what made her stand out form other artists. If you don't aesthetically like country, that's okay if you prefer her newer songs.
I can pretty much enjoy any genre if the lyrics and singing is good. I mostly stick to pop but I like some country, rock, bluegrass, even rap. My husband played "gangsters paradise" and it just struck me, I learned some important things from that song (had no idea the struggles of those in that world) and if I had stuck to my genre I never would have heard it.
@@lilylescarbeau5019 I don't like all her country songs, however, there were so many songs from Speak Now that I live but I just didn't know how many until I look at the song list.
Sparks Fly was actually first written when she was 15 or 16 and she wasn’t planning on releasing it until a video of her playing it was leaked and everyone loved it. She rewrote it and released it, and she’s actually rewritten it more than 10 times, even after releasing it on Speak Now.
I knew it! So back in the days of Limewire, I had downloaded a bunch of Debut album songs, but there was a live version of Sparks Fly much before Speak Now came out.
Ashley Diamond it is about him she only said that because he said she humiliated him and someone asked her about it and she was like lmao how self centered there’s no proof it’s about him
@@maryrobinson9497 Dear John as the start of a break up letter is a meme that dates back to the second world war. So, while the song is about Mayer, anyone can use it for whatever person they want to.
Never Grow Up was written when she moved out of her parents house for the first time. She was living with her parents for the first few years of her career (age 16-19) and then bought a condo in downtown Nashville with some of the money she made from her first couple albums and spent a lot of time designing it into this cozy whimsical fairy-tale hide-away. If you look up pictures online, it's a really different vibe from her newer homes that have a more standard design.
The album was originally titled enchanted but her label didn’t like that. Back to December is about Taylor lautner Dear John is about John Mayer, he wrote a song replying titled paper doll. Enchanted is about tay meeting Adam young, he replied with a song titled enchanted Better than revenge is about joe Jonas. Innocent is about Kanye west.
Last Kiss is also about Joe Jonas. :) I honestly think Joe Jonas was the ex she wrote the most songs about. From Fearless, Speak Now, and even until Red (Holy Ground is also about Joe) there's always been a Joe Jonas song. It's evident that she really did love him deeply. :)
Well we figured her label was shit after all. Enchanted would have been better (and in line of single word album titles). It's also one of my fave songs of her :)
I’ve been a fan of Taylor since 2009 and let me tell you, this album is still one I listen to on a daily basis. People can hate on her however much they want but they can’t deny she’s a genius businesswoman and songwriter. She has produced banger after banger of albums and that’s just facts.
Taylor wrote a lot of Speak Now while she was on tour. After writing her songs to guitar/piano, and then she brought them to Nathan Chapman, who she co-produced the album with, and they mostly recorded it at his home in his basement studio. They generally designed/composed the instrumentals on Pro-Tools, but then recorded with real instruments to replace the Pro-Tools/computer generated instrumentals. A lot of the instruments were played by her touring band, many of whom have now been with her for over 12 years. So yeah, one of the things that's different about how Taylor makes music compared to a lot of other artists in pop and hip-hop is that she doesn't "write to track", ie come up with lyrics to a pre-made instrumental very often. She usually starts out by herself singing a song with her guitar/piano and only after that does she work out the production. So it's kind of like the production is built around the song instead of the song being made to fit the production. And she is involved in providing input for the production. She usually has a vision for what the production will sound like when she writes the sound and gives direction to her co-producers. Her co-producers might be more technically skilled and be more likely to have their hands on the controls, but she's still in the room when all the important production decisions are being made and providing input. You can see all this in her "making of a song" videos for reputation. (she does have a few songs that were "written to track" though and those are good too, for example Cruel Summer, Out of the Woods and I Wish You Would)
PLEASE Listen to the Adam Young Cover of Enchanted. This song is about him, they meet and liked each other but they didn’t confessed their sentiments until this album dropped, and by the time Adam finally realized it was about him and cover it, he heard that she was seeing someone else. He adds a verse in the end as a declaration. It’s so sad and so beautiful.
She moved to New York in 2014, which is right before she released 1989. Never grow up was about her Nashville apartment which she moved into in July 2009. I don't know if anyone has told you about the secret messages, but from her first album to 1989 she used to capitalize certain letters that when you put them together would say something, so never grow up's secret message was I moved out in July
HIDDEN MESSAGES OF SPEAK NOW 1. Mine Hidden message: Toby 2. Sparks Fly Hidden message: Portland, Oregon 3. Back to December Hidden message: Tay 4. Speak Now Hidden message: You always regret what you don't say 5. Dear John Hidden message: Loved you from the very first day 6. Mean Hidden message: I thought you got me 7. The Story of Us Hidden message: CMT Awards 8. Never Grow Up Hidden message: I moved out in July 9. Enchanted Hidden message: Adam 10. Better Than Revenge Hidden message: You thought I would forget 11. Innocent Hidden message: Life is full of little interruptions 12. Haunted Hidden message: Still to this day 13. Last Kiss Hidden message: Forever and always 14. Long Live Hidden message: For you
Vanessa Almeida these are all such beautiful little phrases to me. I’m curious what the significance behind Portland Oregon is? I live in Oregon so that’s really exciting for me!
Degan Graboyes what I found on internet: “Taylor wrote it when she was sixteen years old, which was even before the release of her debut album. She penned it after playing with her crush Jake Owen, in a bar in Portland, Oregon. Due to the demand from fans after a performance of the song was uploaded to RUclips, Taylor decided to rework it and put it on Speak Now.”
Alex Tonelli well, in the booklets of the lyrics, Taylor used to underline, highlight or capitalize some letters and all together they formed the “hidden message” of that song
Frabrizio: Becoming a Swiftie (A Quarantine Love Story) Let’s see if I can remember these 😂: Mine was first single off the album. Sparks Fly was one she wrote at 15 or 16 I think. Back to December was about Taylor Lautner (night in September was the Kanye night that started it all). Speak Now, hypothetical about a friend of hers I think whose ex married someone awful. Dear John is about John Mayer, who was awful to her. Mean is about her critics. Story of Us is about Joe Jonas, Never Grow Up of course about her parents. Enchanted was about a guy in the industry who she had a crush on I believe. In some band. I can’t fully remember. Better than Revenge was about Camilla Belle, who Joe Jonas dumped her for. Innocent was the first Kanye song. Not sure about Haunted. Last Kiss is about Joe Jonas I believe. Long Live is dedicated to her band and fans. Not sure about the bonus tracks. Man, I remember sitting there deciphering the CD insert and all the clues where she would capitalize different letters to hide messages throughout. Those were the times!!
leaninglights in regards to Enchanted, she had a crush on Adam Young from his one man band Owl City! (If you remember the song Fireflies that was big in the mid 2000s, that was his song!) and also apparently he had written a letter to Taylor saying that he was also enchanted by her and even did his own take of Enchanted in which he sings “You were all of my dreams come true and I just wish you knew that Taylor I was so in love with you” it was the sweetest thing 😭😭😭
the fact that she made this album with no co-writers, just solely her because people accused her of not being able to write a good album on her own never fails to amaze me
Mean was actually one of her first songs (at least that got popular) to specifically address her haters. It isn't about a personal relationship but people who don't like her and make fun of her fans for enjoying her
It’s about Bob Lefsetz a music critic who criticized Taylor after her 2010 Grammys perfomance with Stevie Nicks saying that Taylor was pitchy and could not sing
@@ItsKourtneylove Bob tried to come out of the seat she gave him when Reputation dropped and all of the nay sayers were claiming the album wasn't good and that the tour tickets wouldn't sell. I think Rep turning into the highest grossing tour put his slimy a$$ right back in that seat without ever having to address his irrelevant self again.
My cousin tried the whole "every song is a break up song" argument and when I mentioned that mean was not a break up song she tried telling me it was. I let it go because it wasn't a huge deal at the time but I never understand those criticisms because if you listen to the lyrics, it seems pretty clear that it's not a break up song even though it may fit someone's life better with that interpretation.
When he said throwing rocks at my window I died because he hasn't listened to Hey Stephen yet (song on fearless) and to me that is crazy he came up with those words that taylor uses in the album before!!!
I feel like he appreciates her music and though none of these songs are going to become a favorite he still understands that theses songs are great songs and dose a good job at least getting close to some of the thought process and happenings that caused her to write the songs, or pointing out her story telling. I really appreciate that he is honest about the songs and his opinions and even though it is not his genre he still listened and gave a great reaction.
What you should react to next: 1.fearless (platinum edition) 2.taylor Swift (debut album) 3.artist of the decade performance 4. I did something bad amas 2018 5.all of the music videos 6. Grammy museum performance !!! They are all sooo good!
i went to see speak now on tour when i was really little, and during the song speak now a girl came out in a big wedding dress and it was like a whole scene. her concerts are so theatrical.
Long Live is within my very favorite songs ever from Taylor. Its about her fans. Its about us sticking with her, and in a sense, like a thank-you note. It always has me emotional and when I heard it at Rep I cried (as well as when I was 14 and saw it at the Speak Now concert live). As a fan, I've spent more years with Taylor's music than literally anyone except my sister and mom. She's been there through everything. So this song means so much. As far as Taylor's older albums, I tend not to listen to them as much (other than a few tracks from each) because they are very dreamy albums that fantasize about real love. (Not to say I have a Playlist on my spotify of everything and have days when I listen to the older albums.) But they just remind me of when I was younger. As an adult, I love listening to renditions she does of them now (rep tour she sang most of her songs if not all? On her guitar as a surprise song. Invisible live was a gift I never knew I needed) and I'm super excited to hear her re-record. Her vocals have gotten even better as an adult and I'm super excited. But I mainly listen to Red-Lover. When I was in high school, I took ASL for 4 years and became fluent, at the end of each year, we had a song to perform. I always did a TS song. I did Superman, Mine, 22, and then Both of Us with BoB ft TS. Good times.
Her albums are the sound tracks to my life. Which one I love most depends on how I'm feeling that day. Long live from the speak now live album makes me cry every time.
When this album came out i was in middle school and getting bullied a lot and I was suicidal. Long Live always made me feel like i wasn’t alone and even if i didn’t have friends i still had Taylor. LA Rep Tour was my first Taylor concert and I balled like a baby when she sang it
@@meghanrene8906 it came out when I was in high school. Her music also helped me through a suicidal time in my life when I was 20 and had to be hospitalized. I totally get that, she was there for us. When I was 21, I was in an abusive relationship and I ended up having to get a restraining order from him. I was so terrified to stand in court against him, but LWYMMD had just come out. I listened to it over and over before and after standing in the court room against him. And it meant everything that I saw Rep on the one year anniversary of her court case. I cried so hard that night at the concert. It was one of the best nights of my life.
After reacting to the taylor swift albums you should react to taylor accepting the billboard award for woman of the decade. Also what’s your take on the whole scooter Braun thing
22:53 Never Grow Up was written about her moving out of her parent’s house and how scary growing up is. She wasn’t in New York yet but she was in Nashville.
The bridge of Long Live is the best part- I get so emotional every time "but if God forbid, fate should step in and force us into a goodbye, if you have children some day, when they point to the pictures, please tell them my name" 😭
My favourite album by her! 100% written by only her! Better than Revenge worst song Taylor has, it is very slut-shamey, she has even said herself she doesn't really like it anymore. My all time favourite Taylor song is Dear John.
i don't think it's slut-shamey, i think it's more about the anger she has for the girl who stole her bf. i personally love that song and i think we can all agree it is nowhere NEAR her worst song.
@@hanasouljaboy5949 i adore the song even if i disagree with the message, but come on. you can't deny the slut shaming in that song. "She's better known for the things that she does on the mattress"? if you like the song thats fine but don't deny that its problematic
Speak Now is my fav album from her, for sure, and "Enchanted" might be the most beautiful thing I have ever heard in my life. I usually say that it is my favorite song ever. It just touches my soul in a way no other song does.
ENCHANTED: This song is very special to me because it's what got me into Taylor. I'm a HUGE Owl City (Adam Young) fan. I heard his "reply" cover of Enchanted before hearing her original. Here's the story: he had been emailing her about the possibility of a collab. She ended up meeting him backstage after one of his shows. Much later, as she was performing this song during the 1989 tour, she described the moment meeting Adam as "when you meet someone so beautiful that you're taken aback by it." It's such a beautiful sentiment because both Taylor and Adam have such beautiful minds, I can only imagine what those minds meeting would be like. Adam emailed her the next day after meeting her and apologized for not talking much, because he was "wonderstruck at meeting [her]." She replied that she had never heard someone use the word wonderstruck in a sentence before. They soon lost touch, but he knew Enchanted was about him as soon as he heard it, then he noticed that A-D-A-M is spelled out in caps in the song lyrics in the album sleeve. He recorded this cover as a reply: ruclips.net/video/4JGHd0NWmGM/видео.html
Dear John is about John Mayer, who dated her when she was 19 and he was 32. He has since admitted to be such a big egotist that he has to go to another state and hide so he doesn't become a monster, but he never got treatment/therapy for it until after they had dated. Also Never Grow Up is her moving into her first ever apartment in Nashville.
I love how Taylor is, got me, a whole music genre 😂 I adore i did something bad, just like I adore Speak Now, there is nothing in between 😂 I just love them allllllll Great reaction I looove your videos!
I’ve been waiting for this! Back to December is actually about taylor lautner and innocent is about kanye and the vma thing! You should also react to the Speak Now Tour! It’s a little different than the shows you’ve watched but its still so good and magical
100% you've absolutely got to react to the Speak Now World Tour Live!! It's amazing! (it is a CD, but there is also the DVD that you can watch it on, which I think you should watch it because people literally fall from the roof as part of the performance,) (: Ironically, after the first day of shooting the "Mine" music video, Taylor took all the kids to Toys'R'Us and let them go crazy.
Long live is my favourite song on this album! When the rep tour came around it was during an extended period where I had be extremely depressed for 6-7 months, I went to see Taylor in Manchester England, and although there were some tears before Long Live/ New Year’s Day, when it started playing my emotions just exploded, sat down in floods of tears for a good five minutes. The way she sung it was beautiful, ended up being the way I god rid off some of my negative emotions, and moved on to get myself better again.
Little me is singing and dancing trying to be in love, the memories, such a good album. i found your channel when you did the rep reaction and since then i been watching you everyday, keep the good energy, i been needing a chanel who wasn't full of negativity
a few thoughts: back to december is about taylor lautner, dear john is about John Mayer enchanted was written about when she first met adam young better known as Owl City (and he did a cover of Enchanted where he actually changes the lyrics to say "I was never in love with someone else, I never had somebody waiting on me. Cause you were all of my dreams come true, And I just wish you knew, Taylor I was so in love with you."), better than revenge is about how an actress named camilla i believed stole joe jonas from her, mean is about a music critic who just hated taylor and didnt actually criticize her music but rather attacked her as like a human being, never grow up is about her younger brother, innocent is actually about kanye west and she's basically saying we're all still learning, we all make mistakes, it's okay you're innocent (lol), long live was written for her crew as an anthem for all their adventures together,
i love Mean because taylor made it about a critic who wrote about a performance of hers on grammys saying that, after that, "everyone knew she couldnt sing", then she wrote it, won two grammys with it and performed it, changing the post bridge chorus to "someday i'll be singing this at the grammys and all you're ever gonna be is mean"
innocent is about the music video of the year, rep is about the phone call and twisted story. that's why the narratives are so different. fool me once shame on me, fool me twice now the blames on you.
I think you should react to some of her videoclips (do all of them is a little impossible, since she usually does 5-6 videos per album) and right now I can think of "Out Of The Woods", "Look What You Made Me Do", "I Knew You Were Trouble", "Bad Blood", (the infamous VMA winner) "You Belong With Me", "Mean", "Shake It Off", "The Man", "You Need To Calm Down" and "Delicate" come to my mind as the most cinematographic and different ones. Also live performances of "Innocence" at the VMAs , "All Too Well" at the Grammys, "Blank Space" at the AMAs and also last year's medley. You will love it!
There’s also a Speak Now tour video. I got the deluxe deluxe edition of this album that included a bonus cd of this concert. I don’t even know how many times I’ve watched that thing over the years lol
I am SO glad you liked innocent!! It's my favorite track on the album. Taylor said about it that "I felt that I needed to write a song TO Kanye, not ABOUT him
Enchanted is the first song ever that I heard from taylor and I was enchanted at once, and to this day it's one of my favorite taylor songs if not the favorite.
I've said it before, and I'll say it again... best album ever and enchanted is the best song ever!! Haunted intro has been my phone's ringtone since it was released back in 2010🤣😂
Last kiss is in my holy trinity of Taylor songs. 1. All too well 2. Last Kiss 3. Cornelia Street. up until last august Enchanted was in my top 3, but cornelia street bumped it by a hair.
Fun fact: This album was written completely by her not one cowriter because people kept saying she didnt write any of her songs and was lying about writing her own songs. She proved them wrong!!!
After this reaction I think you should look into some more “old school” country I guess you could call it when compared to newer country. I would personally recommend Martina McBride as her vocals are amazing and she does it so effortlessly. Her songs are also beautifully written and touch on so many important issues.
I love that in your reaction of the story of us you said something like “I’m ready to go to battle” cause she has an unreleased song called Battle and it’s rumored to have been left off this album and to me it makes perfect sense; the first time I heard that one actually reminded me of TSOU
As I uploaded the video, I refreshed the page and reached another milestone on the channel as I just hit 20k subs!!!

Congratulations, you are a real swiftie now
The real glow up
once they know about the track 5s, that's when you know they passed the initiation into the swiftie fandom

SHE WROTE IT ALL BY HERSELF AND SHE WAS ONLY 19

@@Leo-wb4hz right!!! I love sparks fly so much
And it was the first of her 4 records to sell over a million copies in their week of release!! SHE did that 👑 Mind you, she's also the First artist in History to have done that!!! 🏆🎉✨
Ok ok im done now 😊
Dear John: But you changed the rules every day
Lover: This is our place, we make the rules
Omg is that why John Mayer made fun of that song? (Dear John is speculated to be about John Mayer)
Thank u ❤
@@sanj_lh he was when? Video what???
There is a difference between one party changing the rules without consulting the other party in the relationship as Dear John implies - as opposed to WE make the rules, implicating we together decide what the rules are in our house.
woah I never connected that
Enchanted is a top 10 Taylor song of all time
It's a top 5 of all time
So in love with that song, it’s just so perfect 💕
it's the best of all time, u cant change my mind
Long Live is top 5
Enchanted is my all time favorite

Omg I didn't know it
he need to see this!! haha
Long Live is a song about her relationship with her fans
And also her band
it was originally written about her band/her team but she’s dedicated it to her fans on multiple occasions
It's my fav song along w All Too Well.
I wasn't mentally prepared to be reminded the fact that Speak Now turns 10 years old this year. How did all that time fly by?
I know but for me it feels much longer I’m 22 now and I swear I was 9 or 10 when it came out but no I was twelve when it came out but still it feel so far away
Oh I know! The past YEAR just flew by, the. You think WOW! Really? 10 years!?
"Don't pretend its such a mystery, how 2010 became 2020"...
"Cause I see time fly, whenever yoouuuu smile"
omg... wait... I didn't think about that. I'm not prepared.

One of my favorite lyric is from The Story of Us, "I've never heard silence quite this loud"
One of my favorite lyrics is in Last Kiss where she says "I feel you forget me like I used to feel you breathe" just..ughh. right in the feels especially after a break up
I agree! And also 'but you held your pride like you should have held me'
mine is : You made a rebel of a careless man`s carefull daughter
YEAHHHHH!!!! the story of us is such an underrated song, it has some amazing lyrics
The Story of Us is my JAM!
You can still appreciate Taylor's writing and style without liking country. I don't get why people don't seem to understand that. We love her for her writing and she's always written her own songs. It's what made her stand out form other artists. If you don't aesthetically like country, that's okay if you prefer her newer songs.
Yes! I agree is makes all of her music awesome and I don't like country but I love all of Taylor's country albums.
As a child I thought I didn’t like country but my 10 year old self loved speak now because her words hit hard .
I can pretty much enjoy any genre if the lyrics and singing is good. I mostly stick to pop but I like some country, rock, bluegrass, even rap. My husband played "gangsters paradise" and it just struck me, I learned some important things from that song (had no idea the struggles of those in that world) and if I had stuck to my genre I never would have heard it.
i absolutely hate country but love her
@@lilylescarbeau5019 I don't like all her country songs, however, there were so many songs from Speak Now that I live but I just didn't know how many until I look at the song list.
Sparks Fly was actually first written when she was 15 or 16 and she wasn’t planning on releasing it until a video of her playing it was leaked and everyone loved it. She rewrote it and released it, and she’s actually rewritten it more than 10 times, even after releasing it on Speak Now.

Dear John is about John Meyer she named names and didn’t hold back!
Baylee Baxter yea but she played it smart cause dear john is also a common used phrase
Ashley Diamond it is about him she only said that because he said she humiliated him and someone asked her about it and she was like lmao how self centered there’s no proof it’s about him
@@maryrobinson9497 Dear John as the start of a break up letter is a meme that dates back to the second world war. So, while the song is about Mayer, anyone can use it for whatever person they want to.
Robert Thompson I know where the phrase comes from i was just talking about where she said in an interview that she never said it was about him
Yeah, but he already had the rep of being just what she said. It screams him
Never Grow Up was written when she moved out of her parents house for the first time. She was living with her parents for the first few years of her career (age 16-19) and then bought a condo in downtown Nashville with some of the money she made from her first couple albums and spent a lot of time designing it into this cozy whimsical fairy-tale hide-away. If you look up pictures online, it's a really different vibe from her newer homes that have a more standard design.
I love the uniqueness of taylors Nashville home!
Admit it, now you're a Swiftie. Next step, going to a Taylor Swift concert (in 2021)
If we not in quarantine... 😂
hey 2021 now... might have to be 2022:(
@@Juliak0410 sighs and crosses fingers
i love how he keeps unintentionally making taylor references like benjamin button is actually who her third cat is named after.
The album was originally titled enchanted but her label didn’t like that.
Back to December is about Taylor lautner
Dear John is about John Mayer, he wrote a song replying titled paper doll.
Enchanted is about tay meeting Adam young, he replied with a song titled enchanted
Better than revenge is about joe Jonas.
Innocent is about Kanye west.
Better Than Revenge is about Camilla Belle
Also Long Live is about her fans and her band
Last Kiss is also about Joe Jonas. :) I honestly think Joe Jonas was the ex she wrote the most songs about. From Fearless, Speak Now, and even until Red (Holy Ground is also about Joe) there's always been a Joe Jonas song. It's evident that she really did love him deeply. :)
Well we figured her label was shit after all. Enchanted would have been better (and in line of single word album titles). It's also one of my fave songs of her :)
I'll be happier if the album title was Enchanted. 😭😭
I’ve been a fan of Taylor since 2009 and let me tell you, this album is still one I listen to on a daily basis. People can hate on her however much they want but they can’t deny she’s a genius businesswoman and songwriter. She has produced banger after banger of albums and that’s just facts.
Daily basis. I thought, me listening to speak now on a weekly basis is the ultimate. But you beat me there.
Taylor wrote a lot of Speak Now while she was on tour. After writing her songs to guitar/piano, and then she brought them to Nathan Chapman, who she co-produced the album with, and they mostly recorded it at his home in his basement studio. They generally designed/composed the instrumentals on Pro-Tools, but then recorded with real instruments to replace the Pro-Tools/computer generated instrumentals. A lot of the instruments were played by her touring band, many of whom have now been with her for over 12 years.
So yeah, one of the things that's different about how Taylor makes music compared to a lot of other artists in pop and hip-hop is that she doesn't "write to track", ie come up with lyrics to a pre-made instrumental very often. She usually starts out by herself singing a song with her guitar/piano and only after that does she work out the production. So it's kind of like the production is built around the song instead of the song being made to fit the production. And she is involved in providing input for the production. She usually has a vision for what the production will sound like when she writes the sound and gives direction to her co-producers. Her co-producers might be more technically skilled and be more likely to have their hands on the controls, but she's still in the room when all the important production decisions are being made and providing input. You can see all this in her "making of a song" videos for reputation.
(she does have a few songs that were "written to track" though and those are good too, for example Cruel Summer, Out of the Woods and I Wish You Would)
For 1989 she did ‘how I write the songs’, and said it changes every time. She writes to track, too!
And you're in love. She said somewhere she heard the back track that jack made and then wrote about his love story with it
Cruel Summer was written to track? How do you know?
She sometimes writes to melodies stuck in her head too. Sad Beautiful tragic was written around the melody.
I really appreciate that you took the time to write this comment, Nicolas
PLEASE Listen to the Adam Young Cover of Enchanted.
This song is about him, they meet and liked each other but they didn’t confessed their sentiments until this album dropped, and by the time Adam finally realized it was about him and cover it, he heard that she was seeing someone else.
He adds a verse in the end as a declaration. It’s so sad and so beautiful.
I think about this so much . So sad
Adam admitted to emailing her back and fourth for like 4 months but nothing progressed. He wanted to collaborate with her and she was too busy.
Kirstin Wolter I didn’t knew that!
Sad, beautiful, tragic you could say.
YES HE SHOULD LISTEN TO IT
She moved to New York in 2014, which is right before she released 1989. Never grow up was about her Nashville apartment which she moved into in July 2009. I don't know if anyone has told you about the secret messages, but from her first album to 1989 she used to capitalize certain letters that when you put them together would say something, so never grow up's secret message was I moved out in July
Where is the secret message
@@livsayegh6576 They are in the booklet lyrics
When describing the "movie scene" from 'Mine', pretty sure you probably saw the MV haha.

Vanessa Almeida these are all such beautiful little phrases to me. I’m curious what the significance behind Portland Oregon is? I live in Oregon so that’s really exciting for me!
Degan Graboyes what I found on internet: “Taylor wrote it when she was sixteen years old, which was even before the release of her debut album. She penned it after playing with her crush Jake Owen, in a bar in Portland, Oregon. Due to the demand from fans after a performance of the song was uploaded to RUclips, Taylor decided to rework it and put it on Speak Now.”
Wdym hidden messages ? Its just words ?..
Alex Tonelli well, in the booklets of the lyrics, Taylor used to underline, highlight or capitalize some letters and all together they formed the “hidden message” of that song
Oh my goodness. The hidden message for Track 11 is still true to this day, 10 years later.
Frabrizio: Becoming a Swiftie (A Quarantine Love Story)
Let’s see if I can remember these 😂: Mine was first single off the album. Sparks Fly was one she wrote at 15 or 16 I think. Back to December was about Taylor Lautner (night in September was the Kanye night that started it all). Speak Now, hypothetical about a friend of hers I think whose ex married someone awful. Dear John is about John Mayer, who was awful to her. Mean is about her critics. Story of Us is about Joe Jonas, Never Grow Up of course about her parents. Enchanted was about a guy in the industry who she had a crush on I believe. In some band. I can’t fully remember. Better than Revenge was about Camilla Belle, who Joe Jonas dumped her for. Innocent was the first Kanye song. Not sure about Haunted. Last Kiss is about Joe Jonas I believe. Long Live is dedicated to her band and fans. Not sure about the bonus tracks. Man, I remember sitting there deciphering the CD insert and all the clues where she would capitalize different letters to hide messages throughout. Those were the times!!
leaninglights in regards to Enchanted, she had a crush on Adam Young from his one man band Owl City! (If you remember the song Fireflies that was big in the mid 2000s, that was his song!) and also apparently he had written a letter to Taylor saying that he was also enchanted by her and even did his own take of Enchanted in which he sings “You were all of my dreams come true and I just wish you knew that Taylor I was so in love with you” it was the sweetest thing 😭😭😭
the story of us is actually about john! it was written after cma i think
najaspears makes sense!! Lol I haven’t thought about these in a long time! 😂❤️
KimSaysItAin’tSooo yes!! I remember that now!!
actually some of her songs is allegedly about john mayer, like THE STORY OF US, OURS, HAUNTED, OURS, and SUPERMAN
the fact that she made this album with no co-writers, just solely her because people accused her of not being able to write a good album on her own never fails to amaze me
Mean was actually one of her first songs (at least that got popular) to specifically address her haters. It isn't about a personal relationship but people who don't like her and make fun of her fans for enjoying her
It’s about Bob Lefsetz a music critic who criticized Taylor after her 2010 Grammys perfomance with Stevie Nicks saying that Taylor was pitchy and could not sing
@@ItsKourtneylove Bob tried to come out of the seat she gave him when Reputation dropped and all of the nay sayers were claiming the album wasn't good and that the tour tickets wouldn't sell. I think Rep turning into the highest grossing tour put his slimy a$$ right back in that seat without ever having to address his irrelevant self again.
My cousin tried the whole "every song is a break up song" argument and when I mentioned that mean was not a break up song she tried telling me it was. I let it go because it wasn't a huge deal at the time but I never understand those criticisms because if you listen to the lyrics, it seems pretty clear that it's not a break up song even though it may fit someone's life better with that interpretation.
When he said throwing rocks at my window I died because he hasn't listened to Hey Stephen yet (song on fearless) and to me that is crazy he came up with those words that taylor uses in the album before!!!
omg i thought the same thing!
Taylor Swift made me like country, I’m pretty sure you’ll love Fearless and her first self titled album! :)
They don't call her "lyricist swift" for nothing
Who else was brought back to 2010 with this album reaction? This album makes me feel like I am a freshman in high school, again.
I feel like he appreciates her music and though none of these songs are going to become a favorite he still understands that theses songs are great songs and dose a good job at least getting close to some of the thought process and happenings that caused her to write the songs, or pointing out her story telling. I really appreciate that he is honest about the songs and his opinions and even though it is not his genre he still listened and gave a great reaction.
You should watch her Mean performance at the Grammys. It’s a personal fave.
The fact she won a Grammy for that song *chef's kiss*
when you've finished all the albums or smt, go watch Taylor's monologue song on SNL its hilarious
Lol😂
Yes please!!
Enchanted is the Wildest Dreams of Speak Now and Treacherous of Red fight me
Haunted is one of my favorite songs ever
Sameeeeee
Sameeee
Same!
What you should react to next: 1.fearless (platinum edition) 2.taylor Swift (debut album) 3.artist of the decade performance 4. I did something bad amas 2018 5.all of the music videos 6. Grammy museum performance !!! They are all sooo good!
This is the reaction I was waiting for!
Best Taylor Swift album..I said what I said...period!
PERIOD!!
YOUR TASTE 👌🏽
i went to see speak now on tour when i was really little, and during the song speak now a girl came out in a big wedding dress and it was like a whole scene. her concerts are so theatrical.
Fabrizio voice: “AAAAAAAAAAAA” omg I’m so excited for thisss
Spill the truth: Last Kiss is the best of the album
Facts
113%
Enchanted is perfect... long live give me chills
He was speechless with Enchanted, he literally had no adjectives to describe it!! Fabrizio the word you were looking for is "heavenly" ;)
Long Live is within my very favorite songs ever from Taylor. Its about her fans. Its about us sticking with her, and in a sense, like a thank-you note. It always has me emotional and when I heard it at Rep I cried (as well as when I was 14 and saw it at the Speak Now concert live). As a fan, I've spent more years with Taylor's music than literally anyone except my sister and mom. She's been there through everything. So this song means so much.
As far as Taylor's older albums, I tend not to listen to them as much (other than a few tracks from each) because they are very dreamy albums that fantasize about real love. (Not to say I have a Playlist on my spotify of everything and have days when I listen to the older albums.) But they just remind me of when I was younger. As an adult, I love listening to renditions she does of them now (rep tour she sang most of her songs if not all? On her guitar as a surprise song. Invisible live was a gift I never knew I needed) and I'm super excited to hear her re-record. Her vocals have gotten even better as an adult and I'm super excited. But I mainly listen to Red-Lover.
When I was in high school, I took ASL for 4 years and became fluent, at the end of each year, we had a song to perform. I always did a TS song. I did Superman, Mine, 22, and then Both of Us with BoB ft
TS. Good times.
Her albums are the sound tracks to my life. Which one I love most depends on how I'm feeling that day. Long live from the speak now live album makes me cry every time.
@@lbheflin1458 same!!! I listen to different songs depending on my mood 😊💕🙌🙌🙌 literally grew up and went through everything with her music
When this album came out i was in middle school and getting bullied a lot and I was suicidal. Long Live always made me feel like i wasn’t alone and even if i didn’t have friends i still had Taylor. LA Rep Tour was my first Taylor concert and I balled like a baby when she sang it
@@meghanrene8906 it came out when I was in high school. Her music also helped me through a suicidal time in my life when I was 20 and had to be hospitalized. I totally get that, she was there for us.
When I was 21, I was in an abusive relationship and I ended up having to get a restraining order from him. I was so terrified to stand in court against him, but LWYMMD had just come out. I listened to it over and over before and after standing in the court room against him. And it meant everything that I saw Rep on the one year anniversary of her court case. I cried so hard that night at the concert. It was one of the best nights of my life.
I love when you scream in the middle of the songs 😂 kills me every time lmao such a mood
After reacting to the taylor swift albums you should react to taylor accepting the billboard award for woman of the decade. Also what’s your take on the whole scooter Braun thing
SushiLover1990 yesss!!
22:53 Never Grow Up was written about her moving out of her parent’s house and how scary growing up is. She wasn’t in New York yet but she was in Nashville.
"Innocet" sounds really different now 😟 Imagine that she was his fan and how it is to get all this from your idol...
yup he's always been an assh0le and he just kept getting worse as he got older. 43 and still growing up...
The bridge of Long Live is the best part- I get so emotional every time "but if God forbid, fate should step in and force us into a goodbye, if you have children some day, when they point to the pictures, please tell them my name" 😭
Me: sees the thumbnail.
Again me: happy screaming noises from inside.
My favourite album by her! 100% written by only her! Better than Revenge worst song Taylor has, it is very slut-shamey, she has even said herself she doesn't really like it anymore. My all time favourite Taylor song is Dear John.
i don't think it's slut-shamey, i think it's more about the anger she has for the girl who stole her bf. i personally love that song and i think we can all agree it is nowhere NEAR her worst song.
@@hanasouljaboy5949 i adore the song even if i disagree with the message, but come on. you can't deny the slut shaming in that song. "She's better known for the things that she does on the mattress"? if you like the song thats fine but don't deny that its problematic
lol it is very 'I wrote this when I was 19 and you can tell' though and I appreciate that about it. We see growth in real time!
Tbh what other artist especially men say about women it wasn’t that and she grew from it and hasn’t had a song like it before
Everyone acts as if artists don’t sing songs like this. BTR for me is top 5 on SN
Speak Now is my fav album from her, for sure, and "Enchanted" might be the most beautiful thing I have ever heard in my life. I usually say that it is my favorite song ever. It just touches my soul in a way no other song does.
Enchanted is my favorite song by her. And your description of it is wonderful.
On Never Grow Up she's talking about moving to Nashville.
Not about her moving to Nashville but moving out of her Parents home in Nashville and in to her own apartment there
@@brightspark19 oh sorry I expressed myself bad. Thanks ;)
Your squeals are like music to my ears
YESSS I WAS WAITING FOR THIS ONE!! this and reputation are two of my all time favorite albums
Mine too.
OMG YOUR TAAAAAAAASTEEEEEEEE. I FEEL IT.
TASTE. Those are my two favorites too
ENCHANTED:
This song is very special to me because it's what got me into Taylor.
I'm a HUGE Owl City (Adam Young) fan. I heard his "reply" cover of Enchanted before hearing her original.
Here's the story: he had been emailing her about the possibility of a collab. She ended up meeting him backstage after one of his shows. Much later, as she was performing this song during the 1989 tour, she described the moment meeting Adam as "when you meet someone so beautiful that you're taken aback by it." It's such a beautiful sentiment because both Taylor and Adam have such beautiful minds, I can only imagine what those minds meeting would be like.
Adam emailed her the next day after meeting her and apologized for not talking much, because he was "wonderstruck at meeting [her]." She replied that she had never heard someone use the word wonderstruck in a sentence before. They soon lost touch, but he knew Enchanted was about him as soon as he heard it, then he noticed that A-D-A-M is spelled out in caps in the song lyrics in the album sleeve.
He recorded this cover as a reply:
ruclips.net/video/4JGHd0NWmGM/видео.html
Dear John is about John Mayer, who dated her when she was 19 and he was 32. He has since admitted to be such a big egotist that he has to go to another state and hide so he doesn't become a monster, but he never got treatment/therapy for it until after they had dated. Also Never Grow Up is her moving into her first ever apartment in Nashville.
As you like rap you should listen bad blood feat Kendrick Lamar and you should react to all of her music videos.
And thug story:') that's a classic
I love how Taylor is, got me, a whole music genre 😂 I adore i did something bad, just like I adore Speak Now, there is nothing in between 😂 I just love them allllllll
Great reaction I looove your videos!
I clicked way too fast on this.
I’ve been waiting for this! Back to December is actually about taylor lautner and innocent is about kanye and the vma thing!
You should also react to the Speak Now Tour! It’s a little different than the shows you’ve watched but its still so good and magical
It was soooo magicallll!! (♥ω♥ ) ~♪
100% you've absolutely got to react to the Speak Now World Tour Live!! It's amazing! (it is a CD, but there is also the DVD that you can watch it on, which I think you should watch it because people literally fall from the roof as part of the performance,) (:
Ironically, after the first day of shooting the "Mine" music video, Taylor took all the kids to Toys'R'Us and let them go crazy.
When you knew the lyrics to Mine lmao😂😂 I’ll never get tired of your TS reaction videos.💕
Ours is so underrated. That's it. And the music video was so beautiful 🥺
Long live is my favourite song on this album! When the rep tour came around it was during an extended period where I had be extremely depressed for 6-7 months, I went to see Taylor in Manchester England, and although there were some tears before Long Live/ New Year’s Day, when it started playing my emotions just exploded, sat down in floods of tears for a good five minutes. The way she sung it was beautiful, ended up being the way I god rid off some of my negative emotions, and moved on to get myself better again.
I love how you always pick up on the switch ups. We like to call this in swiftie land ‘Bridge City’ our queen loves a good bridge.
listening to speak now album makes me feel nostalgic 😭
I am here for all this Taylor Swift content
Back to December is one of my favourite songs and the acoustic version is even better.
Last Kiss is one of my all time favourite Taylor songs
Mean is about bullying ( specially for her about the media but it also fits any type of bullying) not really about a relationships.
Little me is singing and dancing trying to be in love, the memories, such a good album. i found your channel when you did the rep reaction and since then i been watching you everyday, keep the good energy, i been needing a chanel who wasn't full of negativity
The fact that Fabrizio admitted he watched The Notebook made me go a lil aww
a few thoughts:
back to december is about taylor lautner,
dear john is about John Mayer
enchanted was written about when she first met adam young better known as Owl City (and he did a cover of Enchanted where he actually changes the lyrics to say "I was never in love with someone else, I never had somebody waiting on me. Cause you were all of my dreams come true, And I just wish you knew, Taylor I was so in love with you."),
better than revenge is about how an actress named camilla i believed stole joe jonas from her,
mean is about a music critic who just hated taylor and didnt actually criticize her music but rather attacked her as like a human being,
never grow up is about her younger brother,
innocent is actually about kanye west and she's basically saying we're all still learning, we all make mistakes, it's okay you're innocent (lol),
long live was written for her crew as an anthem for all their adventures together,
i love Mean because taylor made it about a critic who wrote about a performance of hers on grammys saying that, after that, "everyone knew she couldnt sing", then she wrote it, won two grammys with it and performed it, changing the post bridge chorus to "someday i'll be singing this at the grammys and all you're ever gonna be is mean"
Yo the lyrics to Back to December are "I miss your tan skin", not "I miss your texting"
When you realized you knew the lyrics from Mine 😂😂 2:18
"yo this song is really good" when listening to last kiss is my exact reaction
IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS MOMENT SINCE THE FIRST TIME I STARTED TO WATCH YOUR VIDEOS
Me too!!! ❤️
innocent is about the music video of the year, rep is about the phone call and twisted story. that's why the narratives are so different. fool me once shame on me, fool me twice now the blames on you.
Chills... Feels like I was taken back to the time when I was 14 listening by to them again. It feels good ❤️
I think you should react to some of her videoclips (do all of them is a little impossible, since she usually does 5-6 videos per album) and right now I can think of "Out Of The Woods", "Look What You Made Me Do", "I Knew You Were Trouble", "Bad Blood", (the infamous VMA winner) "You Belong With Me", "Mean", "Shake It Off", "The Man", "You Need To Calm Down" and "Delicate" come to my mind as the most cinematographic and different ones. Also live performances of "Innocence" at the VMAs , "All Too Well" at the Grammys, "Blank Space" at the AMAs and also last year's medley. You will love it!
There’s also a Speak Now tour video. I got the deluxe deluxe edition of this album that included a bonus cd of this concert. I don’t even know how many times I’ve watched that thing over the years lol
you should listen to conan gray!!! he just released an album in march, it’s pop. he’s a swiftie too!!
I Am absalutly in love with Conan Gray.❤❤❤
I am SO glad you liked innocent!! It's my favorite track on the album. Taylor said about it that "I felt that I needed to write a song TO Kanye, not ABOUT him
Enchanted is the first song ever that I heard from taylor and I was enchanted at once, and to this day it's one of my favorite taylor songs if not the favorite.
When he sais throwing pebbles around 38.41, my mind went like Our Song (tapping on the window), the Other Side of the Door and Love Story 😂
I've said it before, and I'll say it again... best album ever and enchanted is the best song ever!!
Haunted intro has been my phone's ringtone since it was released back in 2010🤣😂
Last kiss is in my holy trinity of Taylor songs. 1. All too well 2. Last Kiss 3. Cornelia Street. up until last august Enchanted was in my top 3, but cornelia street bumped it by a hair.
Fun fact: This album was written completely by her not one cowriter because people kept saying she didnt write any of her songs and was lying about writing her own songs. She proved them wrong!!!
You should react to:
Beautiful Ghosts ❤
Safe and Sound 😢
I don't wanna live forever 😍
Ronan 😭
After this reaction I think you should look into some more “old school” country I guess you could call it when compared to newer country. I would personally recommend Martina McBride as her vocals are amazing and she does it so effortlessly. Her songs are also beautifully written and touch on so many important issues.
YASSSSSSSS!!!!! I AM SO HAPPY THAT YOU FINALLY POSTED THIS!
I love that in your reaction of the story of us you said something like “I’m ready to go to battle” cause she has an unreleased song called Battle and it’s rumored to have been left off this album and to me it makes perfect sense; the first time I heard that one actually reminded me of TSOU
this album is written by a 19 years old from Nashville, and i love it ❤️ her best work in my opinion lyrically 💕
I was so looking forward to you reviewing this album!! 🥰
Same!
I guess Fearless is next....
