This Taylor journey is just starting and is already SO satisfying!! Full album reactions, live performances, & much much more: / beveraggi Beveraggi Beveraggi
@@MichaelBeveraggi "They whisper in the hallways, 'She's a bad, bad girl"-Think treatment Hillary Clinton got during 2016 election. "So sad, we paint the town blue"-voting democrat after a loss. Also, the cheerleaders shouting "Go! Fight! Win!" "Boys will be boys then"-Is that so far from what was discussed with that "locker room talk"?
The fact that this mans got so into his feelings after listening to Daylight and he doesn't even know the backstory or the RED connection and hasn't even heard rep, like damn that was everything!!!
@@MichaelBeveraggi haha rep is a roller coaster and Daylight is basically her coming out of the darkness. The context will make so much more sense after!
When you get to the album Red, in her prologue she writes, "...there's something to be proud of about moving on and realizing that real love shines golden like starlight, and doesn't fade or spontaneously combust. Maybe I'll write a whole album about that kind of love if I ever find it." Several lyrics in the song "Daylight" references lyrics from that album...especially the song "Red".
Taylor's boyfriend is British actor Joe Alwyn. They've been together for four years, and every love song on both reputation and Lover are about him (as well as invisible string and peace from folklore). He stuck by her through all the crap the world and the media dragged her through. We Swifties adore him. Also, Soon You'll Get Better is about Taylor's mother, Andrea Swift, and her battle with cancer. The Dixie Chicks are Andrea's favorite band.
One of her favorite bands. Another is Def Leopard--if you didn't see the Crossroads video, Taylor did a session mixing her songs and their songs on stage live. There is a behind the scenes blog post somewhere on Swift's channel.
There’s a reason why soooo many people have failed to bring her down, the Woman can not FLOP! She does don’t Fail ! All her albums are hard to rank bcs there’s NO bad album. My fav is Folklore and idk how she’s going to top it, yet she’ll do just that SOMEHOW!
As a swiftie since RED, i like folklore alot more. I really love RED but I think people hype it up too much considering how her songwriting is still incredible and folklore has more depth and maturity.
The Chicks used to be The Dixie Chicks. Soon You’ll Get Better was written about her mom who was diagnosed for a 2nd time with breast cancer and then they found a brain tumor. I honestly don’t know the status of her mom, but we all love both her parents (her dad had cancer and it’s in remission) and are all saying our prayers that her mom gets better.
Never fails to make me cry. Blessed to never have been in that situation but I can empathize with her feelings and the pain of watching a loved one go through that. We’re all hoping and praying Andrea is doing well.
This is a forever song for me. It's about her Mom, but my mom was a breast cancer survivor of 25 years. We celebrated listening to Lover the Album together (my mom and me). She was diagnosed with glioblastoma in December 2019 and died April 11, 2020. Interestingly, on Folklore, I break down about my mom when Taylor sings Epiphany. These two songs along with Best Day bond me to the woman TS forever. I will her mother life every day.
@@JenniferDonahue702 my mom was a cancer survivor too but she passed this last Saturday. I haven’t listened to folklore since she passed, I suspect it will hit me differently as well. 2020 really has been a horrible year.
@@sulathenewfie4277 My heart goes to you for your mother's departure from this form of existence. Music is healing for me as if it is an essential piece of my composition. I sand with my mom to the end because they say music lyrics stay with a person longer than regular language. So many sons we sang together in life and at the end now become sacred. Listening through my mom's ears, something you'll do, I suspect, will be what gets you. May music help heal and feel what should be felt. I hate that people rush grief and tell people, "it's okay. it will be okay." It's not. It won't though life goes on. Feel your experience and give it the time it deserves. Mine will take al lifetime with diminishing grief and waves of good and bad. Wishing you strength in your journey.

She did a beautiful LIVE performance of Lover on BBC’s Live Lounge. You will love it. The MV for this too! Lover was a single as was The Man, You Need to Calm Down, and ME. ME was meant for young kids who weren’t feeling very good about themselves when they sing it. So if it feels ‘childish’ it’s written for a specific audience in mind. You Need to Calm Down was aimed mostly at people’s lack of tolerance, especially online. It is an anthem for the LGBTQ+ community and the MV has a ton of gay cameos (plus a few other specials 😉) in it.
We will not get into how I’m still bitter she didn’t make Cruel Summer a single. Loved your reaction. Looking forward to more! There are live versions of Lover; Keith Urban did a cover of it which is pretty great. He wrote her a sweet message on Instagram with footage of the song and her response was also pretty sweet. This song is by far, one of her best.

That was also the first song she’s ever licensed to a political campaign and she gave it to Joe; the footage with it is so well done.
Dude, Just as you I discovered Taylor music on my 30s. Now I am a Die Hard Swifty since I had the chance to listening a front to back of her albums and now my life is different because I have all of her music in my life. She is just a blessing for our generation!!
"I once believed love would be burning red, but it's golden" just highlighting this lyric. you might find it familiar one day when you've gone further deeper into your taylor swift journey :)
the ending of Daylight made me bawl my eyes out, she's finally letting go of all the bad things and hatred in her Reputation era and she's willing to move on because she's finally happy now Taylor is such a huge inspiration, such a queen
Your album reviews are the best man . I just wanna put it out there . Also since you didn't know Taylor previously, the way you cared for each song just gives me serotonin doses
Daylight is incredibly moving! It embodies the sense of calm that she has reached in how she feels and experiences love at this point in her life, and reflects the feeling of that in her song. It's a wonderful song and I choked up at the end, too.
Yesss I am so happy someone else loves Afterglow too! It has such a different perspective of self reflection from most other songs I feel like. This is also my favorite reaction to this album by far, relate so much to what talked about with each song which was cool to watch.
She hasn’t performed all tracks because the tour was supposed to happen this year. But the ones she has performed are: Lover The man The archer Cornelia street DBATC Soon you’ll get better False god London boy YNTCD ME! Daylight (I hope I’m not forgetting anything! and sorry for my English)
Can I just say - in light of recent reactions to this album, your video is such a breath of fresh air. I love how much you trust Taylor lyrically and how many little things you notice. Thank you for being my comfort creator. ❤
Taylor Swift is the soundtrack of my life. I’ve been listening since she put out her first album. Her lyrics and bridges are incredible. Can wait to see your reaction to Reputation because it’s 🔥
Soon you'll get better is a song dedicated to her mom and her cancer journey, and is so emotional that Taylor hasn't been able to perform that song live, and has done it only a couple of times, including once at the beginning of lockdown for the special that artists did for charity, she performed that song. Me! I love just because I love Brendon and panic at the disco so much. Their performance at the billboard music awards last year is so good. Also you should check her duet with zayn for the 2nd fifty shades of grey movie soundtrack, has a mv too.
Can I just say, you are such a genuine and smart person. I was here in your channel because of your Little Mix reaction for Confetti album and then I found out you are also reacting to the artist of my life, TS. Now, I'm binge watching your TS reactions. I respect you so much! Hope you're staying healthy. ❤️
her tiny desk performance is a must watch!!! So stripped back and powerful plus it’s interesting to hear her talk about transitioning into writing happy love songs when she’s so well known for breakup songs!
I love when a man becomes a swiftie, I can’t wait until you get to rep and RED! Your mind will be blown with rep and your heart will break with RED! ♥️
THERE'S A LIVE VERSION OF LOVER, ACTUALLY MORE THAN ONE HAHA, BUT I SUGGEST THE BBC LIVE LOUNGE VERSION ITS SOO GOODDD ... SHE ALSO PERFORMED OTHER SONGS THERE
She has a number of different LL sessions. Her 1989 era cover of Riptide, and live Shake It Off; her live version of Phil Collin's Can't Stop Loving You is from the recent session. Comparing this to the Live Lounge sets from the Red album.. . . Or the concert at Harvey Mudd college. So many live sessions, so little time. Did she do her cover of Tom Petty's American Girl for the BBC? can't remember.
You can see a little of the creating process of the Lover album in the Miss America documentary, but it's just 2 or 3 songs. And there's a video for The NY Times about the creation of the title track. However, after you react to Reputation, there's a series of videos, here in youtube, showing writing/producing journey, that it's very complete!!
i loved the way you payed attention to the lyrics and commented on them, because her writing is really one of the most special things about her! you should definitively do her other albums, I'm looking foward to see it ♡
Just wanted to tell you TAYLOR WRITES ALL THE SONGS ALL BY HERSELF . The co written credits are all the producers of the songs if you see . So its like when they work together sometimes one or 2 lines can be added by them . You know WE JUST NEEDED TO APPRECIATE THAT .
Michael on Folklore's Exile: I don't think it'll get better My Tears Ricochet: kicks your teeth in. Michael on Cruel Summer: I don't think it'll get better. Lover: hold my beer.
Soon You'll Get Better kills me. I lost my Mum to cancer in 2014 so to hear someone put down my thoughts in such a beautiful way is heartbreaking but beautiful to listen to.
ACTUALLY most of her songs before folklore, were on her perspective, the lover album is dedicated to her bf of 4years, Joe Alwyn.. ALSO some info before you go to REPUTATION... This is her comback album after she was CANCELLED because of that 'kanye and Kim' drama, where they made her the 🐍, AND that she was the LIAR, so after that she didn't really explained herself, she went away from public eye for 1 year, then came back with REPUTATION, BEST COMEBACK :) then earlier this year i think, the full phone call was leaked, showing that TAYLOR WAS TELLING THE TRUTH, AND THAT kanye and kim were the REAL SNAKE 🐍
I am compelled to say that while some songs are dedicated to him, cruel summer and cornelia street are about her relationship with karlie kloss, however you interpret that relationship to have been (romantic/platonic). This was her first album after having her master's stolen from her by the same dude managing karlie, who didnt make a statement when swift was asking for support and trying to get them back. They used to be super close, then that and fans/media hounding them contributed to their relationship breaking down 😥
@@mikiwilliams4133what makes you say they’re about Karlie? ‘He looks up grinning like a devil’ seems to be abt a man… plus the context of it, sneaking around, that points to her and joe’s relationship early on when she was not fully done w TH. And Cornelia street definitely has romantic undertones, not just platonic, to which Taylor has asked everyone since the beginning not to ship her w her friends as it makes her uncomfortable, so to say that song is about Karlie would go against these wishes.
I love this album, thanks for giving it the credit it deserves! I got to see Daylight live last year as my surprise song in Minneapolis, it was magical!! I love so many songs though, Cornelia St and DBATC live in Paris are such good performances!
I've been a taylor fan since her debut album, I was 9 when it came out and I'm now 22, seeing her grow and growing with her is just amazing and I'm super proud of her, it is so incredibly hard for me to choose my favourite album and songs because they're all different and great lyrically, can't wait for you to get to reputation and red
I have to say, I've loved Taylor since she first started making music but I love seeing new people react to her that have not really heard her before..it really is crazy how talented she is. Thank you for your reactions! I love watching.
I also love the line: "I ask the traffic lights if it will be all right, they say...I...don't...know." The three beats of those last three words are like the traffic light changing color, green, yellow, red. It's just so clever!
Keep an open mind when diving into her discography. You'll find tons of timeless gems in each album. Everything she does has a purpose. Be it repetitive chorus, the production or her vocal delivery. Great video. I'm subbing if you're doing more Taylor.
When I first heard the spoken part at the end of Daylight...😭she broke me!! It's the PERFECT closer for the album, especially off the back of Reputation!
So glad you are getting to know Taylor. Every album has a different vibe, different sound. She doesn’t stay in the same box. She has played Lover live several times, but my absolute favorite live version is the Live from SNL performance. I absolutely love it. It’s the most intimate and raw version and it’s great. Her boyfriend is in the stands and she looks over at him and smiles. Miss Americana is the documentary, it is very very good. It is worth watching. It shows a lot of her writing Lover and Reputation tour. The documentary also chronicles at length why and what inspired her to write Only The Young, the song she allowed Biden-Harris to use for their campaign. Genius. You see in real time the moment she came up with the hook. Behind the scenes of Reputation is Behind the Song with maybe 6 or 7 songs. There is a Making of a Song: Lover. This is a short video discussing how she wrote the song. Of course she is known for live performances and her music videos which are iconic. Cornelia St live from Paris is spectacular as is Death by a Thousand Cuts, and she plays some of these songs also live BBC live lounge. Yes, Cornelia St is a true story. Most of these songs are about her boyfriend Joe.
I can't wait to hear your cover of Lover! Lover is often listed by other artists as one of the songs they wish they would have written themselves and you can obviously see why :D Also, can I just say, that I vibe with YOU so much as a person. I can tell you are a real empath and I love that. Thanks for the content and the smiles. Can't wait for your next Taylor reaction video!
LOVER REDEEMED TAYLOR FOR ME. I was kinda iffy with her during 1989 and Rep. But this album proves that she has grown so much and have matured. Especially with songs like YNTCD and Afterglow. YES- live version of Lover exists even on Spotify and actually listen to it more than the album version. Also prefer the First Dance Remix because if makes me feel so inlove even without a boyfriend. 🤣 Lover has a remix too with Shawn Mendes, but I don’t care much for it. Also fun fact about Soon You’ll Get Better, it’s about her mom battling cancer. She didn’t like to talk about the song in an interview because of how personal it is. But she decided to perform this song during an online lockdown concert for Global Citizen. Another is that It’s Nice to Have A Friend is actually sampled from a school music for kids in Toronto, so she supports them by doing this 🤍🤍🤍 I love Lover. So much. I could cry. My faves are Afterglow, Lover, ME!, It’s Nice to Have A Friend, and Daylight!! The rest are all tied as second faves 🤍 Pls do a video on Katy Perry’s Smile too! Personally think it’s this year’s most snubbed album and definitely deserved waaaaaay more ALSO- re artists who write their own songs and do it greatly, I recommend Carly Rae Jepsen and Mariah Carey
It’s ok, I was sleeping on her till 1989. And now I’m obsessed with her writing and how fresh her lyrics are. She uses basic words, phrased like a genius would. And her sound changes so much threw each album. Reputation has my heart though!
Watched your folklore react last night and woke up and watched this! Seen a lot of Taylor reactions but hands down your videos are the MOST the articulate , detailed and impassioned dissections of her music and songwriting!!! Dig it bro!!!! U a new swiftie 😍
PLEASE DO WATCH : taylor swift AMA performance ( she perform lover live and her other hits ) Also, CITY OF LOVER CONCERT MV: Lover, The Man, Me! and you need to calm down . Live performance: BBC live lounge
I didn't know him RUclips just recommend me this video and I came out of kinda curiosity, wasn't sure I would watch the full but then I had a journey with him. Now I'm glad that I clicked. I got my new favorite reacter here ❤️ the way he got emotional in daylight is precious and honest just like I get listening to it. Love u. ThAnks
If you have not already seen it: you would love to see Taylor's NPR Tiny Desk performance. She does 4 songs (two of which where from the Lover album because it had just come out around that time). All 4 songs are acoustic (her playing either a piano or guitar) in a very intimate setting. Also, her personality shines through in her commentaries between songs.
There was this one week where I couldn’t listen to anything besides Cornelia street live from Paris. Hope it’s everything you hoped for bc I know it was BETTER than I could’ve imagined. Thanks for deep diving into our girl. Subscribed 💘
Honestly, the live performance of Cornelia Street from Paris is one of the BEST performances she has EVER done. it is one of my absolute favorites of her live performances it's just so damn good
Dude, I'm so poor. I'm a writer and come from a family of musicians. I am so adoring your reactions, and I want to share your joy in music because I experience that same delight. I want to be one of your patrons, but I am so stinking poor. I may have to do it, though. It's the genuine quality of your knowledge, lack of pretension to how you share, and playfulness all while bringing intelligence to analysis. Thank you for sharing your response. Wait until you get to Taylor's Red. And, well, yes. Enjoy Red. I was going to add a few other of her albums, but they are all great. She keeps getting better, but she's always been great. Enjoy your ride on the T-Swift Journey.
I have been a fan of reaction videos for awhile but have frequently gotten annoyed with “music coach” reactions because they get so bogged down the whole time in the perfection of the voice. I’ve heard people criticize when a singer feels emotion during an emotional song *insert eye roll here* I recently stumbled on you and you’re by far my favorite. As a trained singer and a human with ears, obviously talent is important when listening to an artist but as you’ve said- lyricism, emotion, authenticity are what make an artist enjoyable for me and what connects me to a performance. It’s not always about perfection, I think some of that emotion and authenticity get lost when all you care about is purity of vocal sounds. Thank you for appreciating artists for their artistry and not just perfection.
I LOVE your reaction !!!!!! Swifties would like to tell you that her track 5s are usually the most vulnerable ones. But as for me, the last track is also emotional, cause when you went through a whole incredible album, you don't want this music journey to end! I feel you!! Can't wait to see your Taylor reactions, they make me so happy!
I think nobody mentioned it, but soon you'll get better was written by Taylor to her mum, who has cancer and has been dealing with it for a while now, is a really emotional song for her and it's with her mum's favourite band the Dixie chicks
This album has yet to have a tour sadly because of COVID, it was scheduled for this summer but was canceled. So I guess she wrote the album Folklore instead for us. But she did do a concert in Paris to promote this album before COVID hit that was recorded and put online. It has Lover live acoustically ruclips.net/video/_yvMhg2pLf0/видео.html
Death by a thousand cuts she wrote about the netflix film 'Someone Great'. She said she wanted to write a sad song to prove she doesn't need to be sad to write a great break-up song, and this film inspired her
This was so wholesome to watch ❤️ And honestly, I always get teary eyed when the album closer comes, too. I can‘t wait for you to check out a live performance of Lover (song), I can really recommend you the latest BBC Radio One session by her, it features some songs off Lover and a beautiful cover! Sending you love, I’m already looking forward to the next Taylor content here!☺️
She hasn't toured lover cause of covid. BUT you can check out her BBC live lounge performances. There's lover, london boy, her cover of Phil Collin's cant stop loving you and a couple other song. other LOVER era performances you need to check out : Cornelia Street live from Paris AMAs woman of the decade performance Tiny desk performances MTV VMAs (you need to calm down & Lover) SNL performances (False God & Lover)
26:57 "LONDON BOY", the voices at the main of the audio are the voices of Idris Elba and James Corden, both voices were taken of an interview of James Corden's channel.
Oh my gosh! So happy I fell upon your channel!!! Just saw your Evermore reaction, now watching your Lover reaction! There goes my Sunday! Will have to watch all your Taylor reactions 😂 You are great!!!! Can’t wait for you to listen to Rep and Red and 1989!

This is why Taylor is loved so much by her millions of fans. How it makes you feel at the end of the album.
Such a great artist since 2006.
She did a beautiful LIVE performance of Lover on BBC’s Live Lounge. You will love it. The MV for this too! Lover was a single as was The Man, You Need to Calm Down, and ME. ME was meant for young kids who weren’t feeling very good about themselves when they sing it. So if it feels ‘childish’ it’s written for a specific audience in mind. You Need to Calm Down was aimed mostly at people’s lack of tolerance, especially online. It is an anthem for the LGBTQ+ community and the MV has a ton of gay cameos (plus a few other specials 😉) in it.
Don't forget her performance at VMAs 2019 too. She literally turned the entire award show into a concert!
She also released The Archer as a promotional single before the album release, but I don't think it charted as a single.
We will not get into how I’m still bitter she didn’t make Cruel Summer a single.
Loved your reaction. Looking forward to more!
There are live versions of Lover; Keith Urban did a cover of it which is pretty great. He wrote her a sweet message on Instagram with footage of the song and her response was also pretty sweet. This song is by far, one of her best.
Sorry to keep adding but since you mentioned the politics, Ms. Americana and the Heartbreak Prince was her first true political song in reaction to the 2016 election. When you checkout the documentary, make sure to watch the whole song she wrote for the end credits, no doubt it’s a song directed at the gop. That was also the first song she’s ever licensed to a political campaign and she gave it to Joe; the footage with it is so well done.
Uf she picked better singles, this album could have has some 1989 quality chart toppers
Dude, Just as you I discovered Taylor music on my 30s. Now I am a Die Hard Swifty since I had the chance to listening a front to back of her albums and now my life is different because I have all of her music in my life. She is just a blessing for our generation!!

Exactly. I was so glad that he noticed it so much. Hopefully it'll stay in the back of his mind for a while :)
You are so smart.... We stan a smart swiftie!
the ending of Daylight made me bawl my eyes out, she's finally letting go of all the bad things and hatred in her Reputation era and she's willing to move on because she's finally happy now Taylor is such a huge inspiration, such a queen
Your album reviews are the best man . I just wanna put it out there . Also since you didn't know Taylor previously, the way you cared for each song just gives me serotonin doses
I appreciate your words endlessly ♥️
I swear this is so fricking true😭
I JUST FINISHED YOUR REACTION FOR FOLKLORE!! and i just refreshed and tadaaa here we go with LOVER reaction!!
Tadaaaaaa. Hii!
Can't wait till you get to the song All Too Well on the Red album. Swifties favorite song.
DBATC, Afterglow, and Daylight are probably my favorite songs on the album, but it’s so hard because Taylor’s discography is just so amazing.
Daylight is incredibly moving! It embodies the sense of calm that she has reached in how she feels and experiences love at this point in her life, and reflects the feeling of that in her song. It's a wonderful song and I choked up at the end, too.
Yesss I am so happy someone else loves Afterglow too! It has such a different perspective of self reflection from most other songs I feel like. This is also my favorite reaction to this album by far, relate so much to what talked about with each song which was cool to watch.
I love your reactions!! I just started listening to Taylor swift this year and I am sooo happy I did 🥰
She hasn’t performed all tracks because the tour was supposed to happen this year. But the ones she has performed are:
Lover
The man
The archer
Cornelia street
DBATC
Soon you’ll get better
False god
London boy
YNTCD
ME!
Daylight
(I hope I’m not forgetting anything! and sorry for my English)
If you’d have told me last year we’d get soon you’ll get better as a performance before cruel summer...
@@Evast23 she was keeping cs for the best time
She wanted to cs a special moment but COVID destroyed everything
I just absolutely love how Michael's become a Swiftie. Feel like a proud mama🥺❤
Can I just say - in light of recent reactions to this album, your video is such a breath of fresh air. I love how much you trust Taylor lyrically and how many little things you notice. Thank you for being my comfort creator. ❤
omg. someone who actually appreciates Afterglow... this is one of my favourite T.S song.. like top tier..
Every Taylor Album has a different sound, that's why she is always on top. She never does the same thing twice.
Taylor Swift is the soundtrack of my life. I’ve been listening since she put out her first album. Her lyrics and bridges are incredible. Can wait to see your reaction to Reputation because it’s 🔥
Soon you'll get better is a song dedicated to her mom and her cancer journey, and is so emotional that Taylor hasn't been able to perform that song live, and has done it only a couple of times, including once at the beginning of lockdown for the special that artists did for charity, she performed that song. Me! I love just because I love Brendon and panic at the disco so much. Their performance at the billboard music awards last year is so good. Also you should check her duet with zayn for the 2nd fifty shades of grey movie soundtrack, has a mv too.
Can I just say, you are such a genuine and smart person. I was here in your channel because of your Little Mix reaction for Confetti album and then I found out you are also reacting to the artist of my life, TS. Now, I'm binge watching your TS reactions. I respect you so much! Hope you're staying healthy. ❤️
her tiny desk performance is a must watch!!! So stripped back and powerful plus it’s interesting to hear her talk about transitioning into writing happy love songs when she’s so well known for breakup songs!
I LOVE THE AFTERGLOW APPRECIATION HERE IT REALLY IS A MASTERPIECE.
False God, Death by a Thousand Cuts and Afterglow are top 3.
this channel is just...all good vibes? it’s so enjoyable to see someone enjoying something 🥺❤️
“The Man” music video was one of those that made the song better for me. I feel it needed those visuals to really nail the point in a satisfying way
I love when a man becomes a swiftie, I can’t wait until you get to rep and RED! Your mind will be blown with rep and your heart will break with RED! ♥️
THERE'S A LIVE VERSION OF LOVER, ACTUALLY MORE THAN ONE HAHA, BUT I SUGGEST THE BBC LIVE LOUNGE VERSION ITS SOO GOODDD ... SHE ALSO PERFORMED OTHER SONGS THERE
OH YES THE BBC LIVE LOUNGE IS SO ICONIC! 🦋✨
She has a number of different LL sessions. Her 1989 era cover of Riptide, and live Shake It Off; her live version of Phil Collin's Can't Stop Loving You is from the recent session. Comparing this to the Live Lounge sets from the Red album.. . . Or the concert at Harvey Mudd college. So many live sessions, so little time. Did she do her cover of Tom Petty's American Girl for the BBC? can't remember.
@@robertthompson7242 oh HARVEY.MUDD concert, I looove that too :) Esp EYES OPEN
You can see a little of the creating process of the Lover album in the Miss America documentary, but it's just 2 or 3 songs. And there's a video for The NY Times about the creation of the title track. However, after you react to Reputation, there's a series of videos, here in youtube, showing writing/producing journey, that it's very complete!!
i loved the way you payed attention to the lyrics and commented on them, because her writing is really one of the most special things about her!
you should definitively do her other albums, I'm looking foward to see it ♡
You should watch all her official MV. There is a reason she wins awards for them.
Just wanted to tell you TAYLOR WRITES ALL THE SONGS ALL BY HERSELF . The co written credits are all the producers of the songs if you see . So its like when they work together sometimes one or 2 lines can be added by them . You know
WE JUST NEEDED TO APPRECIATE THAT .
Michael on Folklore's Exile: I don't think it'll get better
My Tears Ricochet: kicks your teeth in.
Michael on Cruel Summer: I don't think it'll get better.
Lover: hold my beer.
Soon You'll Get Better kills me. I lost my Mum to cancer in 2014 so to hear someone put down my thoughts in such a beautiful way is heartbreaking but beautiful to listen to.
ACTUALLY most of her songs before folklore, were on her perspective, the lover album is dedicated to her bf of 4years, Joe Alwyn..
ALSO some info before you go to REPUTATION... This is her comback album after she was CANCELLED because of that 'kanye and Kim' drama, where they made her the 🐍, AND that she was the LIAR, so after that she didn't really explained herself, she went away from public eye for 1 year, then came back with REPUTATION, BEST COMEBACK :)
then earlier this year i think, the full phone call was leaked, showing that TAYLOR WAS TELLING THE TRUTH, AND THAT kanye and kim were the REAL SNAKE 🐍
I am compelled to say that while some songs are dedicated to him, cruel summer and cornelia street are about her relationship with karlie kloss, however you interpret that relationship to have been (romantic/platonic). This was her first album after having her master's stolen from her by the same dude managing karlie, who didnt make a statement when swift was asking for support and trying to get them back. They used to be super close, then that and fans/media hounding them contributed to their relationship breaking down 😥
@@mikiwilliams4133what makes you say they’re about Karlie? ‘He looks up grinning like a devil’ seems to be abt a man… plus the context of it, sneaking around, that points to her and joe’s relationship early on when she was not fully done w TH. And Cornelia street definitely has romantic undertones, not just platonic, to which Taylor has asked everyone since the beginning not to ship her w her friends as it makes her uncomfortable, so to say that song is about Karlie would go against these wishes.
WE NEED A REPUTATION ALBUM REACTION
I love this album, thanks for giving it the credit it deserves! I got to see Daylight live last year as my surprise song in Minneapolis, it was magical!! I love so many songs though, Cornelia St and DBATC live in Paris are such good performances!
I've been a taylor fan since her debut album, I was 9 when it came out and I'm now 22, seeing her grow and growing with her is just amazing and I'm super proud of her, it is so incredibly hard for me to choose my favourite album and songs because they're all different and great lyrically, can't wait for you to get to reputation and red
Thank you for this you made my day better...your videos are so wholesome
I have to say, I've loved Taylor since she first started making music but I love seeing new people react to her that have not really heard her before..it really is crazy how talented she is. Thank you for your reactions! I love watching.
I Think He Knows is so underrated. I’m glad you liked it!
I keep coming back to your reaction videos. ❤❤❤
Just finished this reaction and I can honestly say this is the best and most genuine reaction of lover I ever watched. Kudos!
All the love in the entire world to you!
I also love the line: "I ask the traffic lights if it will be all right, they say...I...don't...know." The three beats of those last three words are like the traffic light changing color, green, yellow, red. It's just so clever!
35:48 OH MY GOD THE WAY U SLOW-WIGGLED DURING AFTERGLOW IS A MOOOOOOOOOD LMAOOO
AND YES. AFTERGLOW DESERVED THAT ONE OF MY TOPS
Love it hahahaha 💕
LMAO SLOW-WIGGLE TEAM. Caught me fully vulnerable. I CANT BELIEVE HOW MUCH I LOVE THAT SONG
@@MichaelBeveraggi saaaaaaaaaaaame. 🔥✌🏼
Keep an open mind when diving into her discography. You'll find tons of timeless gems in each album. Everything she does has a purpose. Be it repetitive chorus, the production or her vocal delivery. Great video. I'm subbing if you're doing more Taylor.
When I first heard the spoken part at the end of Daylight...😭she broke me!! It's the PERFECT closer for the album, especially off the back of Reputation!
I found my people. Every time I hear it I still tear up. It’s beautiful and completes everything the album (and rep too) we’re talking about.
Just wanted to let you know that your videos give me so much serotonin! This is the 4th time of me watching all your Taylor reactions ❤️
So glad you are getting to know Taylor. Every album has a different vibe, different sound. She doesn’t stay in the same box. She has played Lover live several times, but my absolute favorite live version is the Live from SNL performance. I absolutely love it. It’s the most intimate and raw version and it’s great. Her boyfriend is in the stands and she looks over at him and smiles.
Miss Americana is the documentary, it is very very good. It is worth watching. It shows a lot of her writing Lover and Reputation tour. The documentary also chronicles at length why and what inspired her to write Only The Young, the song she allowed Biden-Harris to use for their campaign. Genius. You see in real time the moment she came up with the hook.
Behind the scenes of Reputation is Behind the Song with maybe 6 or 7 songs. There is a Making of a Song: Lover. This is a short video discussing how she wrote the song. Of course she is known for live performances and her music videos which are iconic.
Cornelia St live from Paris is spectacular as is Death by a Thousand Cuts, and she plays some of these songs also live BBC live lounge. Yes, Cornelia St is a true story. Most of these songs are about her boyfriend Joe.
I can't wait to hear your cover of Lover! Lover is often listed by other artists as one of the songs they wish they would have written themselves and you can obviously see why :D
Also, can I just say, that I vibe with YOU so much as a person. I can tell you are a real empath and I love that. Thanks for the content and the smiles. Can't wait for your next Taylor reaction video!
Kristin thank you so much for your words you truly have no idea how much they and you are appreciated ♥️
I’m so glad you love the fun songs too! They get too much hate and they’re meant to just be fun
Watch out for tracks 5 on Taylor’s Albums !!! Thank you once again for paying attention to the lyrics!
Lover is an AMAZING song! That bridge!
It's 2AM now in my country and i can't stop binge watching your TS reaction videos. Please do more. :)
i would just like to let you know that these reactions are my comfort videos ily
Your crying at the end is so beautiful!! Love your reaction man!! Taylor loves you!! ❤️❤️❤️
LOVER REDEEMED TAYLOR FOR ME. I was kinda iffy with her during 1989 and Rep. But this album proves that she has grown so much and have matured. Especially with songs like YNTCD and Afterglow.
YES- live version of Lover exists even on Spotify and actually listen to it more than the album version. Also prefer the First Dance Remix because if makes me feel so inlove even without a boyfriend. 🤣 Lover has a remix too with Shawn Mendes, but I don’t care much for it.
Also fun fact about Soon You’ll Get Better, it’s about her mom battling cancer. She didn’t like to talk about the song in an interview because of how personal it is. But she decided to perform this song during an online lockdown concert for Global Citizen. Another is that It’s Nice to Have A Friend is actually sampled from a school music for kids in Toronto, so she supports them by doing this 🤍🤍🤍
I love Lover. So much. I could cry. My faves are Afterglow, Lover, ME!, It’s Nice to Have A Friend, and Daylight!! The rest are all tied as second faves 🤍
Pls do a video on Katy Perry’s Smile too! Personally think it’s this year’s most snubbed album and definitely deserved waaaaaay more
ALSO- re artists who write their own songs and do it greatly, I recommend Carly Rae Jepsen and Mariah Carey
It’s ok, I was sleeping on her till 1989. And now I’m obsessed with her writing and how fresh her lyrics are. She uses basic words, phrased like a genius would. And her sound changes so much threw each album. Reputation has my heart though!
Michael: *listens to next song*
Oh no. ~THIS~ is my favorite song
Lol loved the video! Can’t wait to keep watching the Taylor journey
LMAO! She gets me so wrapped up!
Watched your folklore react last night and woke up and watched this! Seen a lot of Taylor reactions but hands down your videos are the MOST the articulate , detailed and impassioned dissections of her music and songwriting!!! Dig it bro!!!! U a new swiftie 😍
PLEASE DO WATCH :
taylor swift AMA performance ( she perform lover live and her other hits )
Also, CITY OF LOVER CONCERT
MV: Lover, The Man, Me! and you need to calm down .
Live performance: BBC live lounge
I love that you love the traffic lights lyric!!! It’s also one of my favorite Taylor lyrics as well! In all of her discography!
I didn't know him RUclips just recommend me this video and I came out of kinda curiosity, wasn't sure I would watch the full but then I had a journey with him. Now I'm glad that I clicked. I got my new favorite reacter here ❤️ the way he got emotional in daylight is precious and honest just like I get listening to it. Love u. ThAnks
Editing out your DBATC bridge reaction is something I need to take some time to mourn
If you have not already seen it: you would love to see Taylor's NPR Tiny Desk performance. She does 4 songs (two of which where from the Lover album because it had just come out around that time). All 4 songs are acoustic (her playing either a piano or guitar) in a very intimate setting. Also, her personality shines through in her commentaries between songs.
There was this one week where I couldn’t listen to anything besides Cornelia street live from Paris. Hope it’s everything you hoped for bc I know it was BETTER than I could’ve imagined. Thanks for deep diving into our girl. Subscribed 💘
Glad I’m not the only who had the Cornelia street live from Paris phase
@@neensbal13 me too!
Honestly, the live performance of Cornelia Street from Paris is one of the BEST performances she has EVER done. it is one of my absolute favorites of her live performances it's just so damn good
Dude, I'm so poor. I'm a writer and come from a family of musicians. I am so adoring your reactions, and I want to share your joy in music because I experience that same delight. I want to be one of your patrons, but I am so stinking poor. I may have to do it, though. It's the genuine quality of your knowledge, lack of pretension to how you share, and playfulness all while bringing intelligence to analysis. Thank you for sharing your response. Wait until you get to Taylor's Red. And, well, yes. Enjoy Red. I was going to add a few other of her albums, but they are all great. She keeps getting better, but she's always been great. Enjoy your ride on the T-Swift Journey.
This lover era is very me, I frickingly love all those songs here and keeps playing it over and over
IM WATCHING THIS AND FEELING EXCITED FOR HIM TO HEAR REPUTATION🤣
WE GOT ROBBED LOVER ERA SHOULDVE HAD MORE MUSIC VIDEOS
Can't wait for you to react to Reputation and Speak Now! Those are top records, in my opinion.
I have been a fan of reaction videos for awhile but have frequently gotten annoyed with “music coach” reactions because they get so bogged down the whole time in the perfection of the voice. I’ve heard people criticize when a singer feels emotion during an emotional song *insert eye roll here*
I recently stumbled on you and you’re by far my favorite. As a trained singer and a human with ears, obviously talent is important when listening to an artist but as you’ve said- lyricism, emotion, authenticity are what make an artist enjoyable for me and what connects me to a performance. It’s not always about perfection, I think some of that emotion and authenticity get lost when all you care about is purity of vocal sounds.
Thank you for appreciating artists for their artistry and not just perfection.
I LOVE your reaction !!!!!!
Swifties would like to tell you that her track 5s are usually the most vulnerable ones. But as for me, the last track is also emotional, cause when you went through a whole incredible album, you don't want this music journey to end! I feel you!!
Can't wait to see your Taylor reactions, they make me so happy!
Great video! I can’t wait for your next Taylor Swift reaction video 💖
Michael Beverragi everytime listening to next Taylor's song : oh man, i love this song, This my most favourite song ever lyrically and vocally. 😂
Just stumbled across your reaction video ... it was a pleasure to watch. Your reactions were so genuine! Looking forward to watching more.
this whole reaction is sending me bc this was me august 2019 just blown away and straight vibing. i would freak out about every song 😌
I think nobody mentioned it, but soon you'll get better was written by Taylor to her mum, who has cancer and has been dealing with it for a while now, is a really emotional song for her and it's with her mum's favourite band the Dixie chicks
This album has yet to have a tour sadly because of COVID, it was scheduled for this summer but was canceled. So I guess she wrote the album Folklore instead for us. But she did do a concert in Paris to promote this album before COVID hit that was recorded and put online. It has Lover live acoustically
ruclips.net/video/_yvMhg2pLf0/видео.html
You've become my favourite reactor, ngl
Omggggg what 😱 HONORED
Death by a thousand cuts she wrote about the netflix film 'Someone Great'. She said she wanted to write a sad song to prove she doesn't need to be sad to write a great break-up song, and this film inspired her
This was so wholesome to watch ❤️ And honestly, I always get teary eyed when the album closer comes, too.
I can‘t wait for you to check out a live performance of Lover (song), I can really recommend you the latest BBC Radio One session by her, it features some songs off Lover and a beautiful cover!
Sending you love, I’m already looking forward to the next Taylor content here!☺️
It's 1:35AM in Jamaica right now & I'm absolutely watching this entire video. False God is such an underrated beauty!!
She hasn't toured lover cause of covid. BUT you can check out her BBC live lounge performances. There's lover, london boy, her cover of Phil Collin's cant stop loving you and a couple other song.
other LOVER era performances you need to check out :
Cornelia Street live from Paris
AMAs woman of the decade performance
Tiny desk performances
MTV VMAs (you need to calm down & Lover)
SNL performances (False God & Lover)
Afterglow is my all time favorite of hers because it relates to me so much. It always makes me so emotional.
26:57 "LONDON BOY", the voices at the main of the audio are the voices of Idris Elba and James Corden, both voices were taken of an interview of James Corden's channel.
OMG I THOUGHT I RECOGNIZED THE VOICE
you are a great man dude keep up the reactions
Reputation next pls it is her darkest album yet
31:05: “Taylor’s just a chameleon”
You are correct, no taylor swift albums sound the same.... wait until you hear reputation
Well there's one similarity between her albums...
They're all Gorgeous 😏
Oh my gosh! So happy I fell upon your channel!!! Just saw your Evermore reaction, now watching your Lover reaction! There goes my Sunday! Will have to watch all your Taylor reactions 😂 You are great!!!! Can’t wait for you to listen to Rep and Red and 1989!
