Taylor Swift is brilliant. Say what you want about Taylor, but she is a genius. She's a genius songwriter, she's a genius artist and she's a genius businesswoman.
So, do you think she was the one who made the thematic of this video? No girl, artists have people who are in charge of that. And if she was the one who do it, making a music video mocking people and saying you´re going to take revenge is not about brilliant people.
the first zombie taylor is supposed to represent the taylor from the out of the woods music video. they are wearing the same dress basically saying taylor never made it out of the woods
In 2016 hate trend, Haters made a giant mural near her hometown "TS IS DEAD, CANCELLED" these hastags were tredning everywhere in twitter so she did tried to represent that.
I think it was the other taylor who was buried the 1989 one. Because at the end of the out of the woods mv there was two taylor's and i believe the one standing in the beach is the reputation taylor.
So here we are almost two years later with more perspective. Yes, some shade was thrown on Kimye, but little did we know then how much shade was directed at Scott Borchetta. TS is damn genius.
i read somewhere that Taylor said the meaning behind LWYMMD can't be uncovered at the moment and it will take a long period of time before the easter eggs can be crack, hence the part where she was caged..now we all know that it's her struggle to fight for her masters, she wants to own her song but her label want her to record a certain no. of albums to own one album, like she was slaved or caged, the keys once they belonged to me, u ask a place to sleep, locked me up and throw a feast, THIS WOMAN IS A GENIUS!
I'm about to break it down so be ready -the first scene represents how the 1989 era is dead because of you look closely you can see that she is wearing the Out of the Woods dress and that was essentially the end of the 1989 era. She's also burying Taylor in her Met Gala dress which was the beginning of the 1989 era -the second scene references how the media as well as haters believes Taylor is rich and makes too much money -the third scene references how Red deserved a Grammy. If you know your cars, she's driving a Maserati and that references her song Red "loving him was like driving a new Maserati down a dead end street" -caged Taylor represents how media and haters always give Taylor shit for not going out of her house and doing things to advocate for anything ex. Her not going to the woman's march -queen of snakes is obvious -Taylor robbing a bank is how media and haters believe she is money hungry and how she's robbing Spotify : notice it says streaming co. -the scene with all the Barbie-like girls references how everyone believes you have to be looking a certain way to get into Taylors squad -her in the mansion with the formation of men references that she uses men to write her own music -each taylor fighting each other references how the media believes she goes through personal identity crisis and would do whatever to be on top -then Taylor destroying the plane is the medias perception of her. The girl who ruins everything So yeah that's pretty much it. I had some help from @scammerswift on twitter. This music video was incredible. Loved the reaction ❤️
Katie J. Isn't the crash scene also shade towards Katy? Like she literally looks like Katy and she doesn't have Grammys, hence why she looked at the Grammy before changing scenes 😂
Luk As Nils Sjöberb is the alias name she used to write This Is What You Came For. She killed that name because she's always going to take credit for her work now.
Also from what I saw and heard. The second scene and lyrics are about Kayne when he had his platform in the air which was the tilted stage and her in the bathtub represents all of Kim K. Jewelry being stolen and the gun basically representing when she was held hostage and tied up in the bathtub. Then the last scene was about the snaps of what kim posted of taylor and kayne conversation. Then the grammy scene was about katy ofc
When she crashed in he Maserati, it symbolizes that red should have earned a Grammy since in the song Red she said that loving him was like "driving a Maserati down a dead end street"
@Wonderstruck 13 it was not about katy, it was a shade literally to Justin bieber in which justin wore the same outift's design and justin just have 1 grammy
I think the Grammy was a shot at Katy who doesn't have one. This may be a reach but in one of Katy's music video's she does a similar car crash sequence (I don't remember which video right now, could someone plz comment; maybe unconditionally) but Taylor is revamping that idea and instead of the flowers that surround Katy after the crash Taylor has jewels and so much more. Also, the cheetah next to her could be referencing Katy's song Roar as cheetahs are the only big cat that can't actually roar. Also, the metaphorical idea of the crash which is Taylor has been hurt and instead of helping her the reporters just continue to take pictures instead of helping her.
No, she's holding a Grammy and the paparazzi only cares about her car crash. It symbolizes that no matter how successful and rich she gets they only care about her failure.
It's difficult to explain all the symbolism in this video cause it is full of it and there's a lot of hidden ones that we probably haven't found yet. The first is, I guess, a continuation of her Out Of The Woods music video. There were two Taylor's and she probably died at the end since this version is a zombie. It was the final music video of the 1989 era. The zombie was burying Met Gala Taylor from 2014. That Taylor was the beginning of the 1989 era. So it signifies the death and end of that. The diamonds is a reference to people who say she cries in a bathtub full of diamonds. And in that bath tub you can see a dollar bill. That is what she won from the sexual assault case. Next to the bath tub, you'll find a heart necklace which probably signifies the end of Tayvin since that is a necklace from their relationship Then, there are snakes serving the tea. She is surrounded by 12 snakes. 13 is her lucky number. Taylor is the 13th snake. In the beginning there was the gravestone with her pseudonym from when she wrote This Is What You Came For meaning she is going to take credit for everything she writes now. The next is her crashing and burning but the media only cares about getting pictures of her instead of helping. It's also her crashing and burning and no one caring about her accomplishments like having 10 Grammy's. The birdcage is her locked up in a cage like a zoo animal only for the media to stare and her not being able to do anything about it since she is just their pawn. The next has a shirt that says Blind For love since people critique her and judge her for her love life. The next is her squad in the Bad Blood music video. When she is walking with the bat, it's her robbing a streaming company. Meant to mock those who criticized her for taking her music out of Spotify. After that, she is dressed as a dominatrix and it's meant to mock those who make fun of her squad. There, they all look the same. They're robots who follow her, the dominatrix. She is their overlord and leader. The next scene is her collecting men. When she enters, they follow her. She snaps, and they reveal their I heart TS shirts. Meant to mock those who judged Tom Hiddleston for wearing the TS shirt. They said she forced him to so here she snaps her fingers because all the men are brainwashed to do what she wants and says. We actually don't now what the plane signifies though. The next is Taylors from when she was 17-now. They're all fighting to come up, but current Taylor is the leader. And then she kills them all. The Taylor with the top hat and red outfit is Taylor from 2012-2014 Red Tour. The geeky Taylor is Taylor in 2009 from the You Belong with Me music video. The sparkly guitar and silver dress is from the Fearless era/tour. The ballerina is from Shake it Off music video. There is a Taylor with a white sparkly outfit, it's from an award show she went with Calvin Harris. There is one from Speak Now when she was in the Ours music video. There is the Taylor from when Kanye interrupted her on stage. Taylor from Bleachella. Taylor from Our Song when she was still in her freshman album era. The met gala. The Out of The Woods. We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together Taylor. Victoria Secret fashion show, 1989 World Tour Taylor. State of Grace Red Tour Taylor. Basically from every year she has been a singer. Then, she kills them all. The phone she is speaking on, is very similar to the phone she used in the Our Song music video back in 2006. The only difference is the color. Then it is 15 Taylors, like 15 songs in reputation. They attack YBWM Taylor for the surprised face, the "this bitch" is the Kanye thing, Y'all Taylor is the country Taylor with her guitar who just wants to sing and gets attacked, she got attacked and a Taylor goes with the "victimizing yourself" thing, the other Taylor gets "receipts" but they're going to be edited later, Met Gala Taylor is doing the damsel in distress victim act.The final Taylor is the Taylor who won the VMA and Kanye interrupted begging to be excluded from the narrative since 2009, but everyone tells her to shut up. Bringing us to now. No one would exclude her even when she went on break for a year and has been lowkey since January, so she has to come back and overtake and be in charge of her own narrative. And if people want to call her a snake, self victimizing, fake, conceited, selfish, greedy, then go ahead. She doesn't care anymore. Her reputation is dead. But no one makes fun of Taylor Swift better than Taylor Swift makes fun of Taylor Swift. And if you don't get the joke, you dont deserve to know the joke. EDIT: Okay, so also the Calvin necklace spells out No. Later on, when she is robbing the streaming company, there is an engagement ring box facing her. We don't know if they're linked or not, but some people think that if they are, that would explain the break up and why Calvin was so bitter and resentful afterwards.
DQuizzle K Okay, yeah. I can't believe I forgot that part. It is a phrase having to do with Julius Ceasers. He looked at his friend and said "Even you, Brute." This means that there were people she thought were her friends but ended up backstabbing her and betraying her. That's why at the end her You Belong With Me shirt has the names of her real friends. The ones who stuck with her even while the world was tearing her apart and even judging them for being her friend. I don't want to speculate, but in the 1989 era she invited Kendall Jenner on stage and Kendall Jenner also publically called her a snake on Twitter. And she had invited Zendaya to be on her Bad Blood video and all, but Zendaya also started liking posts on Twitter shading her and once people saw she was liking them, she started unliking. So it goes to those people. Maybe they weren't using her for fame, but when it came down to it they cared much more about themselves and their own reputation and fame that they just got up and left her instead of staying by the side of their friend.
all the names on the YBWM t shirt, selena, blake&ryan, este, martha, gigi, todrick, alain, lena... oh, and the bath tub, diamonds and gun maybe mean the kim´s assault on paris
the " Sorry the OLD taylor can go to the phone" I think make references to the moment that Kanye called her for famous song... He said " You still having your old tennesse number"...
Gossip Girl Bathtub has a dollar bill meaning it's representing the fact that she won the sexual assault trial and got the symbolic $1 she countersued for. And the bathtub itself is mocking people who say "she's so clingy that when they leave, she goes and cries in her marble bathtub surrounded by pearls." Except instead she put $10 million + worth of diamonds to further mock them.
Honestly Taylor did a great music video, the song is ok, but in the end she wants to bring the point that she's being "reborn" as a new Taylor. Obviously there is shade at Kanye (lyric: tilted stage), Kim K (the receipts), and Katy Perry (Cheetah & Outfit) because some of those people got her in the predicament that she is in. Overall its a good bang to start her album because it tells you she isn't giving a shit about the opinions and critics she's been getting (and dodging) left and right.
the " Sorry the OLD taylor can go to the phone" I think make references to the moment that Kanye called her for famous song... He said " You still having your old tennesse number"...
why do you always comment like that, if you do not like Taylor Swift better you just shut up. It's up to Taylor Swift to make a video like what she wants..
Jorgen Gagaa Nel perro, es un remake ridiculo de muchos otros videos que sí son iconicos, salvo que este tiene el exito que los otros se merecían. Bien reducta la tabla copiandole a sus innumerables patrones.
GIRL LEMME BREAK IT DOWN FOR YOU: so its her basically her acknowledging her everything everyone says about her - Graveyard: Taylor burying her 1989 self (referencing #TaylorSwiftIsOverParty) - Diamond tub: her only caring about money and there is the single dollar from her sexual assault trial - Throne of snakes is her acknowledging that everyone thinks she's a snake - Car crash is a little reference to te RED album and the fact that it didn't win a Grammy (this is a little easter egg for fans) some people say she's referencing Katy but i dont see it. I only see her "driving a Maserati down a dead end street" - The bank scene is her "only caring about money" and robbing streaming services - The line of girls is referencing how the media says she has a "cult" or "squad" or friends who all are clones of her - The pile of her old selves is self explanatory IDK if im missing stuff
Because at award shows, she likes to dance and have a good time and people always made fun of her for dancing 'badly.' So she threw in some choreography for the haters too haha
@@octavioponspons4600 I think it's a coincidence because to of them were in a pretty good terms shortly after the LWYMMD mv was released, but im not sure.
@blvckvelvet I think it represents the whole Hollywood trying to crash and burn down the building of TS, her carer, that she built from the ground but instead they hit a pole. Then the story changes, she shows the paparazzi who are just intrested in the crash rather than the Grammy. Like how in real life the media cares more about the dramas around her than her successes. I personally know more about her drama with Kim and Kanye than the fact that she's the first woman to ever win two Grammys in row for the album of the year if not more.
The Grammy was a diss to Katy perry. She dressed up like Katy and since Katy has (for some weird reason) never won a Grammy, it was a diss. edit: im so glad they've made up
When Taylor is in the car and it crashes it is definitely 100% supposed to be Katy Perry . Look at the hair . Blonde and short fringe . I knew it loomed familiar when I first watched it . As soon as it came out .
Do you think Taylor did that video thinking about Katy Perry? LOL that is Kim Kardashian and the grammy represents the shade that taylor made to Kanye West. Lwymmd is about Kanye and Kim.
@@Agustina-yt2jq the video is about the critics she received in general like when she quited her music from Spotify or what everybody said about her girl squad, it's not only about Kim and Kanye so it can be about Katy Perry too
It's pretty much about Justin Bieber. Bc there was a pic of him wearing a feline pattern shirt holding a Grammy (and he only has one Grammy so far), and he got caught crashing car. That's why after reputation era ended, she said we havent found all the messages there. There are so many layers on this video, very complex, I'm really blown away with this genius video
The scene in the car is back when she was made a meme at the grammys when she thought she won album of the year for RED, and the car crash is from a line in the song. They hold up a streaming company because people bashed her for taking her music off streaming sites when she found out how unsigned/newer artist don't make as much. The scene where she looks like a leader with all those girls is when the media portrays her as this leader with only perfect model friends in her squad. She part with the guys, she's had eight boyfriends and they wear i heart ts shirts because everyone clowned her and called her last relationship a pr stunt because he was wearing a i heart ts shirt. She touches on alot of stuff the media portrays her as.
SebasRDCD i do not care one bit about katy though. I just see the problematic award show that never ever gave beyoncé album of the year, even over fucking Beck... racist ass show
It's not referencing Katy. For me it can be interpreted in 2 different ways. First, the Grammy speech Taylor made about Kanye is really when her reputation went up in flames. The second is she is holding this Grammy when she gets into a car crash. The crash represents her personal life and the Grammy is her music. No one cares about the Grammy, just the crash. She also is posing for those pictures, playing into people saying she only does shit for publicity
I believe the car crash and the Grammy in her hand is symbolic to her album Red not receiving the Grammy that it deserved. The car in the vid is Maserati which crashed at a dead end, relating to Red’s lyrics which says “loving him is like driving a new Maserati down a dead end street”
0:27 I love how they put the mirror reflection exactly where her eyes are, to make sure people will see it, this music video is genius. But even then, some people don't notice it 😂
The grammy shows that she is an award winning artist and she deserves respect. The media should treat her with respect that she owned and everyone should see that she isn’ t the old taylor inocent and forgiving she once was. People liked when she was a nobody but now she is winning all these awards and people don’t find her so good anymore. Thank god for her fans.
"What is going on dude and Dudettes of the interweb thank you so much for clicking I am Ajay let's get right into this video" I believe that's what she says lol
Taylor really hit me with this song like it's amazing and the video makes it a 1000 times better. I just love how she deals with all the hate comments she uses them to her own benefit. I like this new taylor💗
The car is a reference to a lyric of RED " Loving him is like driving a new Maserati down a dead-end street" but also a nod to the fact that people seem to think that she only cares about winning Grammys.
i love how fcking shookt she is hahahaha usually she pause all the damn time to react and explain how she feels but she's just SHOOKETH JUST LIKE THE REST OF US.
I thought it was a creative video as well and I really like the lyrics she put in there as well. I understood the different eras of each Taylor that she used to be in her past videos and music. It was cool to see a more edgy and aggressive Taylor in a way she wasn't holding back and wasn't sorry for it.
The Grammy (imo) is because everything things Red deserved a Grammy. It's in the car crash scene because the first line of her song Red is "Loving him is like driving a new Maserati down a dead end street"
I hope y'all know what happened to Taylor: She litterally been cyber-bullied by Kanye West, Kim Kardashian and a lot of the celebrities in US and by a hundred thousands people on twitter for 1 and a half year, that's why she drop reputation!
The grammy and the crashed car symbolizes that her album (red) deserved a grammy because in red their is a song (red), a lyric that says "loving him is like driving a new Mazaratti down a dead end street"
The Grammy symbolizes the song. It's suppose to mean "look what you made me do, you made me win a Grammy, you made me release a song that went number 1"
This song and music video are one of her best! I guess you have to be a Swiftie to really get how great this is. Love this song! So unexpected and different but amazing. Genius!
i believe the reference to the grammy is to tell certain persons that she is an award winning artist and she deserves some respect . when she was a nobody everyone liked her and told she was very talented but when she starts winning all those awards and taking them some artists don´t like her so much....
When she used and included all the Taylor characters in one music video that's brilliant. This is a darker side of her and she always likes to tell her life in her songs, the video's well thought. The part where she's like in the bank, there was a scrolling banner "Stream CO" that was about when she was criticized for removing her music on streaming services worldwide, but it was really because she wanted to help other artists to make money there.
Nicolas Vandenbussche why is this ignorant? It has a lot of hints and shades in the video and I'm here for it but your interpretation of the mentioned scene is incorrect.
Was she has a car accident she's trying to represent Katy Perry and one of her music videos and the Grammy means something that it's something that Katy Perry never got
I like the music video the more I watch it. It makes it easier to understand the meaning behind each scene too. I just love how she basically takes charge of her own media portrayal... and just the fact that she is so aware of what's going on around her and how unfair the media is to her.
Taylor Swift is brilliant. Say what you want about Taylor, but she is a genius. She's a genius songwriter, she's a genius artist and she's a genius businesswoman.
🙌🏻
So, do you think she was the one who made the thematic of this video? No girl, artists have people who are in charge of that. And if she was the one who do it, making a music video mocking people and saying you´re going to take revenge is not about brilliant people.

-the second scene references how the media as well as haters believes Taylor is rich and makes too much money
-the third scene references how Red deserved a Grammy. If you know your cars, she's driving a Maserati and that references her song Red "loving him was like driving a new Maserati down a dead end street"
-caged Taylor represents how media and haters always give Taylor shit for not going out of her house and doing things to advocate for anything ex. Her not going to the woman's march
-queen of snakes is obvious
-Taylor robbing a bank is how media and haters believe she is money hungry and how she's robbing Spotify : notice it says streaming co.
-the scene with all the Barbie-like girls references how everyone believes you have to be looking a certain way to get into Taylors squad
-her in the mansion with the formation of men references that she uses men to write her own music

EDIT: Okay, so also the Calvin necklace spells out No. Later on, when she is robbing the streaming company, there is an engagement ring box facing her. We don't know if they're linked or not, but some people think that if they are, that would explain the break up and why Calvin was so bitter and resentful afterwards.
Can you explain the "Et Tu Brute" written on the pillars pls, I think it has something to do with backstabbing.
DQuizzle K Okay, yeah. I can't believe I forgot that part. It is a phrase having to do with Julius Ceasers. He looked at his friend and said "Even you, Brute." This means that there were people she thought were her friends but ended up backstabbing her and betraying her. That's why at the end her You Belong With Me shirt has the names of her real friends. The ones who stuck with her even while the world was tearing her apart and even judging them for being her friend. I don't want to speculate, but in the 1989 era she invited Kendall Jenner on stage and Kendall Jenner also publically called her a snake on Twitter. And she had invited Zendaya to be on her Bad Blood video and all, but Zendaya also started liking posts on Twitter shading her and once people saw she was liking them, she started unliking. So it goes to those people. Maybe they weren't using her for fame, but when it came down to it they cared much more about themselves and their own reputation and fame that they just got up and left her instead of staying by the side of their friend.
all the names on the YBWM t shirt, selena, blake&ryan, este, martha, gigi, todrick, alain, lena...
oh, and the bath tub, diamonds and gun maybe mean the kim´s assault on paris
the " Sorry the OLD taylor can go to the phone" I think make references to the moment that Kanye called her for famous song... He said " You still having your old tennesse number"...
Gossip Girl Bathtub has a dollar bill meaning it's representing the fact that she won the sexual assault trial and got the symbolic $1 she countersued for. And the bathtub itself is mocking people who say "she's so clingy that when they leave, she goes and cries in her marble bathtub surrounded by pearls." Except instead she put $10 million + worth of diamonds to further mock them.
This MV got me speechless!
It’s a masterpiece
It's been four years since this massive comeback that shook everyone to the core. It's surreal, it aged like a fine wine.
2:17 SHE WAS LIFTING ''THE BIG MACHINES'' , her fuckin record lable
Wtf
Dang!! I never noticed it!
aw shit I didn't know this
YESSSSS
There's a meaning for everything in this vid, it's brilliant
Everyone's talking about the snake scene about how they call her a snake but is no one gonna talk about she looks gorgeous in her throne of snakes😌
Honestly Taylor did a great music video, the song is ok, but in the end she wants to bring the point that she's being "reborn" as a new Taylor. Obviously there is shade at Kanye (lyric: tilted stage), Kim K (the receipts), and Katy Perry (Cheetah & Outfit) because some of those people got her in the predicament that she is in. Overall its a good bang to start her album because it tells you she isn't giving a shit about the opinions and critics she's been getting (and dodging) left and right.
nope
I completely and totally agree with you
the " Sorry the OLD taylor can go to the phone" I think make references to the moment that Kanye called her for famous song... He said " You still having your old tennesse number"...
my grandma just reacted to it too omg
Kevin and Lill oml KEVIN AND LIL you guys are the best youtubers ever its really you keep up the great work
why do you always comment like that, if you do not like Taylor Swift better you just shut up. It's up to Taylor Swift to make a video like what she wants..
By the way I am also impressed with your work....good work and great work
THIS VIDEO IS ICONIC OKEY
Jorgen Gagaa truee
Don't use the word iconic when something isn't iconic, the video it will be iconic. It takes time for something to become iconic
Filipe Marques people can use it how they want, the word legend is thrown around a lot to. maybe it doesn't mean as much to some people
Jorgen Gagaa eh
Jorgen Gagaa Nel perro, es un remake ridiculo de muchos otros videos que sí son iconicos, salvo que este tiene el exito que los otros se merecían.
Bien reducta la tabla copiandole a sus innumerables patrones.
Here after Billboard announcement.....it just hits differently everytime she does something no one thought she would.
GIRL LEMME BREAK IT DOWN FOR YOU: so its her basically her acknowledging her everything everyone says about her
- Graveyard: Taylor burying her 1989 self (referencing #TaylorSwiftIsOverParty)
- Diamond tub: her only caring about money and there is the single dollar from her sexual assault trial
- Throne of snakes is her acknowledging that everyone thinks she's a snake
- Car crash is a little reference to te RED album and the fact that it didn't win a Grammy (this is a little easter egg for fans) some people say she's referencing Katy but i dont see it. I only see her "driving a Maserati down a dead end street"
- The bank scene is her "only caring about money" and robbing streaming services
- The line of girls is referencing how the media says she has a "cult" or "squad" or friends who all are clones of her
- The pile of her old selves is self explanatory
IDK if im missing stuff
S RS WELL DONEE
And the dance scene ?
Charles' Vlog Im not entirely sure. I saw some people say it how she always has men lined up for her to date and how she controls them and stuff
Because at award shows, she likes to dance and have a good time and people always made fun of her for dancing 'badly.' So she threw in some choreography for the haters too haha
Brittney Johnson Ahhhh that makes sense
6 years and still the comeback of the century
After almost 4 years, I’m back to rewatch ajay’s iconic reaction to the comeback of the century.
It's been 5 years! No one has ever beaten this iconic comeback of the century!👑
No one will
Let me explain:
When she has the grammy, she looks like Katy, with the grammy that she never had.
Actually, it was never about Katy, just search for "Justin Bieber grammy photoshoot" and everything will be clear
Stream Lover Hmm maybe she was shading Justin too but there’s a frame where she looks just like Katy.
@@octavioponspons4600 I think it's a coincidence because to of them were in a pretty good terms shortly after the LWYMMD mv was released, but im not sure.
💀
@blvckvelvet I think it represents the whole Hollywood trying to crash and burn down the building of TS, her carer, that she built from the ground but instead they hit a pole.
Then the story changes, she shows the paparazzi who are just intrested in the crash rather than the Grammy. Like how in real life the media cares more about the dramas around her than her successes.
I personally know more about her drama with Kim and Kanye than the fact that she's the first woman to ever win two Grammys in row for the album of the year if not more.
Taylor Swift is so brilliant she's soo talented, SHE'S A QUEEN!!
Bro 2 years later and she snapped in this music video. Gave me chills rewatching it.
The Grammy was a diss to Katy perry. She dressed up like Katy and since Katy has (for some weird reason) never won a Grammy, it was a diss.
edit: im so glad they've made up
Katy deserves a Grammy 😭Teenage dream and Prism are literal GOLD ❤️
It was Justin Bieber
Actually, it was never about Katy, just search for "Justin Bieber grammy photoshoot" and everything will be clear
I *STILL* burst out laughing at the "oh shut UP!" at the end 🤣 iconic and a half
"Diamonds are a girls bestfriend" 😂😂😂
When Taylor is in the car and it crashes it is definitely 100% supposed to be Katy Perry . Look at the hair . Blonde and short fringe . I knew it loomed familiar when I first watched it . As soon as it came out .
I think that's Katy Perry who stole the grammy and she's escaping in the car and then she has the accident XD
Do you think Taylor did that video thinking about Katy Perry? LOL that is Kim Kardashian and the grammy represents the shade that taylor made to Kanye West. Lwymmd is about Kanye and Kim.
@@Agustina-yt2jq the video is about the critics she received in general like when she quited her music from Spotify or what everybody said about her girl squad, it's not only about Kim and Kanye so it can be about Katy Perry too
It’s actually about Justin Bieber
It's pretty much about Justin Bieber. Bc there was a pic of him wearing a feline pattern shirt holding a Grammy (and he only has one Grammy so far), and he got caught crashing car. That's why after reputation era ended, she said we havent found all the messages there. There are so many layers on this video, very complex, I'm really blown away with this genius video
The scene in the car is back when she was made a meme at the grammys when she thought she won album of the year for RED, and the car crash is from a line in the song. They hold up a streaming company because people bashed her for taking her music off streaming sites when she found out how unsigned/newer artist don't make as much. The scene where she looks like a leader with all those girls is when the media portrays her as this leader with only perfect model friends in her squad. She part with the guys, she's had eight boyfriends and they wear i heart ts shirts because everyone clowned her and called her last relationship a pr stunt because he was wearing a i heart ts shirt. She touches on alot of stuff the media portrays her as.
She looks like katy perry and holds the grammy because Katy Perry never won grammy and Taylor has 10 and other singers have too
I Love Music its pathetic like a grammy determines quality of music. No offense, grammy's are shit
I Love Music Taylor got her Grammy for country music. Katy had to compete with Adele and Lady Gaga. That is cutthroat competition.
Paige Mangubat Taylor has been 10 Grammys and tht includes 1989 which is pop not country so no that's not an excuse
SebasRDCD i do not care one bit about katy though. I just see the problematic award show that never ever gave beyoncé album of the year, even over fucking Beck... racist ass show
It's not referencing Katy. For me it can be interpreted in 2 different ways. First, the Grammy speech Taylor made about Kanye is really when her reputation went up in flames. The second is she is holding this Grammy when she gets into a car crash. The crash represents her personal life and the Grammy is her music. No one cares about the Grammy, just the crash. She also is posing for those pictures, playing into people saying she only does shit for publicity
She throws shade at so many people in that and I love it so much
Look what you made me do deserved music video of the year. Period
It's been 5yrs since but this remains forever iconic
This has been three years and still iconic
the amount of symbolism in this video is INSANE! for swifties, it's like a huge trip on memory lane
*stunned confused silence throughout video*
I believe the car crash and the Grammy in her hand is symbolic to her album Red not receiving the Grammy that it deserved.
The car in the vid is Maserati which crashed at a dead end, relating to Red’s lyrics which says “loving him is like driving a new Maserati down a dead end street”
Taylor is a great actress. Specially on the man music video. She's just great. 💖
Love this video and your reaction!! I couldn't resist in subscribing and see more reactions! Well done!! :D
0:27 I love how they put the mirror reflection exactly where her eyes are, to make sure people will see it, this music video is genius. But even then, some people don't notice it 😂
The grammy shows that she is an award winning artist and she deserves respect. The media should treat her with respect that she owned and everyone should see that she isn’ t the old taylor inocent and forgiving she once was. People liked when she was a nobody but now she is winning all these awards and people don’t find her so good anymore. Thank god for her fans.
what the hell is she saying at the beginning of every video? "what is going dudfejfhdkwndmxoweb thank you so much for clicking" I NEED TO KNOW
SAME
Federico what is going on dudes and dudettes of the interweb
I love you. I adore you. Legendary queen I STAN.
"What is going on dude and Dudettes of the interweb thank you so much for clicking I am Ajay let's get right into this video" I believe that's what she says lol
Taylor really hit me with this song like it's amazing and the video makes it a 1000 times better. I just love how she deals with all the hate comments she uses them to her own benefit. I like this new taylor💗
it’s been 3 years and we still haven’t found and decoded all the easter eggs and hints in this music video 💀💀
This video is amazing anyway - it's it's so much better when you get the meanings behind everything - it's genius
Still laughing so much when she said “oh shit!A bunch of her “ :)
The car is a reference to a lyric of RED " Loving him is like driving a new Maserati down a dead-end street" but also a nod to the fact that people seem to think that she only cares about winning Grammys.
0:31 "she looks GORGEOUS"
and reputation has a song called gorgeous
her mind💀
The point of the grammy and the accident is that whether good or bad things happen to her, the press will be harassing her
The grammy is a critic to Katy Perry, because Katy Perry dont have any grammy
No
Plus she looks like Katy in that scene
now its shade to justin bieber cause he had a photoshoot wearing that same jacket and a grammy i think
Someone said it was because Red deserved a grammy...
the grammy is a critic to bieber who has a grammy and is wearing a animal printed jacket and he had a car accident
Her reaction was just like mine... i was like oh shit :0
i love how fcking shookt she is hahahaha usually she pause all the damn time to react and explain how she feels but she's just SHOOKETH JUST LIKE THE REST OF US.
I thought it was a creative video as well and I really like the lyrics she put in there as well. I understood the different eras of each Taylor that she used to be in her past videos and music. It was cool to see a more edgy and aggressive Taylor in a way she wasn't holding back and wasn't sorry for it.
There is so much shade in this video and so many Easter eggs it’s wildddd. Taylor’s brain is on another level.
The song was Amazing , The new Tay is incredible 😁❤️
The Grammy (imo) is because everything things Red deserved a Grammy. It's in the car crash scene because the first line of her song Red is "Loving him is like driving a new Maserati down a dead end street"
I hope y'all know what happened to Taylor: She litterally been cyber-bullied by Kanye West, Kim Kardashian and a lot of the celebrities in US and by a hundred thousands people on twitter for 1 and a half year, that's why she drop reputation!
O RETORNO DO SÉCULO!!!
i feel bad for people who don’t understand this music video
The grammy and the crashed car symbolizes that her album (red) deserved a grammy because in red their is a song (red), a lyric that says "loving him is like driving a new Mazaratti down a dead end street"
CUPCAKKE
a b yessss!!
a b yes
a b No
YESSSSSS!!!1
a b NO
This video also broke the record for most views in a 24 hour period. It’s at 33 million and it hasn’t even hit 24 hours yet!
You should react to taylor swift wildest dreams
The Grammy symbolizes the song. It's suppose to mean "look what you made me do, you made me win a Grammy, you made me release a song that went number 1"
I still think the car crash with the grammy is saying red deserved a grammy cus the car crash line
i think it's about Justin Bieber.. he's wearing a leopard coat while holding a grammy in a photo shoot
and he crashed his car before
I absolutely loved it! This Taylor is here to kick some bottoms I mean this girl is on fire and reborn!
I love you so much and your reactions! This video is the best video ever dude.
Also please react to Jon Bellion - The Human Condition!
YES PLZ
You AJay are a queen and i LOVE watching your reaction videos!! Keep being you!
THE FAMILY JEWELS BY MARINA AND THE DIAMONDS

SIA - SOME PEOPLE HAVE REAL PROBLEMS!!!!!
Cristian Pagan yessss
Cristian Pagan yessss
Cristian Pagan YES
Cristian Pagan yes plz
YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEES AND COLOUR THE SMALL ONE
i believe the reference to the grammy is to tell certain persons that she is an award winning artist and she deserves some respect . when she was a nobody everyone liked her and told she was very talented but when she starts winning all those awards and taking them some artists don´t like her so much....
Fucking epic, well done, love it!
I think the grammy symbolises how no one focuses on her successes, just the drama.
Ellie Goulding - Halcyon
Please it's such a masterpiece
yes!!!
PeacePeach3 i
Jacob Martin Yess
Jacob Martin yesssssss
When she used and included all the Taylor characters in one music video that's brilliant. This is a darker side of her and she always likes to tell her life in her songs, the video's well thought.
The part where she's like in the bank, there was a scrolling banner "Stream CO" that was about when she was criticized for removing her music on streaming services worldwide, but it was really because she wanted to help other artists to make money there.
Im not sure but i think that the grammy is for Katy. She looked a little bit like Katy at that part and Katy also never won a grammy so...
"Oh shit, a bunch of hers" lmfao ! AJay was pure gold 😂❤️
The Grammy is a reference to Katy Perry never winning one.
MusicLOVERSUnite It's a Bugatti an not a Masarati. NEXT.
Ahmet S lmao some fans like to give more credit to some stuff than it actually deserves
MusicLOVERSUnite ignorant...
Nicolas Vandenbussche why is this ignorant? It has a lot of hints and shades in the video and I'm here for it but your interpretation of the mentioned scene is incorrect.
Mercedes Swiftie MERCEDES HI
I've been waiting for your reaction 😁❤
Was she has a car accident she's trying to represent Katy Perry and one of her music videos and the Grammy means something that it's something that Katy Perry never got
Nope it's about Justin Bieber
Actually, it was never about Katy, just search for "Justin Bieber grammy photoshoot" and everything will be clear
Taylor Swift Queen
Because shes dead
Me: Sees Ajayll's face
Omfl😂😂😂
I was WAITING for your reaction!
John wayne
Will be in Just dance 2018
I’m struck out on John Wayne
Taylor broke the record for number of views in a day at over 39M!!!
I believe the Grammy is to show she has them and Katy Perry does not.
search "Justin Bieber grammy photoshoot" and "Justin Bieber car crash" on Google Images
The world wasn't ready for that time
REACT TO KATY AND NICKI'S VMA PERFORMANCE
april hudson AND FIFTH HARMONY 😩❤️
no that's lame and a waste of time
Evan Leo fuck off, it was the best performance
april hudson THE BEST PERFORMANCE OF THE VMAs
Rsd 143- she didn’t say it wasn’t
I think the Grammy symbolizes that Katy perry hasn't won any Grammy awards but Taylor swift has won a lot
SIA- "The Geatest" music video!!!!
I like the music video the more I watch it. It makes it easier to understand the meaning behind each scene too. I just love how she basically takes charge of her own media portrayal... and just the fact that she is so aware of what's going on around her and how unfair the media is to her.
React to lorde vma performance
