Betty: “I’m only 17, I don’t know anything” Cardigan: “Tried to change the ending, Peter losing Wendy” James doesn’t admin fault, he blames his actions on being young and stupid but never fully apologizes. He refuses to grow up.
@@TopNotchWatcher87 Betty danced with the boy because James wouldn’t dance with her he was hurt so he wanted to hurt her X10 so he cheated, they are both young making poor choices not communicating, sadly a large portion of young relationships
@@Naramiss2396 she danced with someone, he slept with someone, that’s a big jump up if IMO…. But yes I know, only teenagers and stupid, just adding to what the comment said about his lack of accountability.
@@TopNotchWatcher87 I honestly totally agreed with hating on James but I never know why people is acting like 'Augustine' is this kind of saint that was the one that got hurt the most in this fiction story. The one that initiated the whole thing is her, she wanted James despite knowing he is with Betty but once knowing she can only have his body but not his heart, she started acting like the victim in the whole triangle. I feel like the one that is to blame in this drama is both Augustine and James. I know this is fiction, but man this happen in real life and just imagine people thinking your husband/boyfriend mistress/sidechick is the most pitiful, that is sad.
No fr they should have put them in there anyways bc it preps them for watching the recorded show/movie after the concert with Eric and then they aren’t confused when they play in the movie also the 1 is just an absolute favourite of mine and I really wanted to hear all their thought mostly Eric lollll
@@Naramiss2396 yuppp agreed. also it doesnt quite make sense for them to not do those songs bc they reacted to Long Live which isnt even on the setlist anymore... a bit inconsistent
Hold on. Betty and james were already dating guys😂 james cheated on her, the rumour that inez is spreading is not that james like betty its that, hey you know, he's sleeping around
I love that Eric referenced Qui Gon when talking about Illicit Affairs because I always think about Anakin and Padme when I hear this song, about how they hid their relationship and it ended up destroying both of them. Also I think of Anakin and Obi Wan when I hear My Tears Ricochet, especially the lines "You turned into your worst fear" , "You had to kill me but it killed you just the same", "Tossing out blame, drunk on this pain, crossing out the good years", "you'll be made of ashes too"
The eras thing started with the reputation album. Taylor/Swifties would coin a phrase 'I'm in my rep era,' which is synonymous to having a 'villain origin story' back then. Now it's like having a comeback or something.
@@Hey_Jamie Yes, but that is the most surface level definition of the ‘era’ in the fandom. I’m explaining how it started as a term in the TS/Swiftie lore which other fandoms also started to co-opt now.
@@nikkis7375 Yes, that word has been around long before Taylor. But it was only brought to the zeitgeist AFTER Taylor's reputation album dropped. You had to be there to know how it started lol
The “my tears ricochet” line likely means that her tears have ricocheted back to the person who made her sad (Scott) and he ended up crying too, because he lost so much when he lost her.
I am still so happy and almost in disbelief still that one of my favorite reaction channels started doing my favorite artist. Thank you, I’ve loved every one so far!!
RE the cardigan music video, I've seen a great interpretation of the song (I think by Neecee X?) that helped match up the lyrics and video. Her take was essentially that this relationship wasn't necessarily healthy, it made this person feel beaten down like she's an old piece of clothing that someone forgot about under their bed (like she's drowning). And just when she's decided she's had enough, this person swoops back in with apologies and making her feel special, doing just enough to keep her in the relationship (feeling like she's been saved from drowning and given a breath of fresh air). The "you drew stars around my scars" line for example isn't saying "you helped me heal" but instead is maybe saying "you tried to glorify or make my old wounds seems ok, but I'm still wounded". I really liked this interpretation and hadn't seen much of it before! (loved the video!)
The whole song "My tears ricochet" is about her stolen masters. Because the most trusted person in her early career was the boss of Big Machine Records, who ended up selling them to one of her worst enemies in the industry. He turned into his worst fears, because he always said, that he doesn't wanted to be like the major labels. You should give the guys a listen to the long pond version. I love that setting for these songs.
Illicit Affairs was inspired by the period in Sex And The City where Big has married someone else but has an affair with Carrie. He was the high she could never resist despite it always going wrong. He always called her 'kid' and she (at various points in the series) accuses him of ruining her and making a mess of them. I had just rewatched the series during lock down so the connection jumped out but Taylor aso mentioned it as an influence during one interview about the album.
For a long time I didn’t fully understand the lyric “my tears ricochet”, until her performance in the Long Pond Studio Sessions where she added the lyric “look at all of my tears… turning into you tears”. Her tears ricochet back to him. The things he did to her will ruin him. They had a close relationship, so she knows it hurt him to hurt her. Her tears become his, her pain will cause his pain, because what he did will haunt him forever. “You had to kill me, but it killed you just the same.” It could also reference retaliation. Speaking out against him, the re-recording project, was all built out of the hurt she felt in this situation and I’m sure part of her motivation is wanting to hit back. Her tears ricochet- her actions built out of grief to get back at him Similarly, the line “if i’m on fire, you’ll be made of ashes too”, I interpret as “if you destroy me, it will destroy you to”
Taylor explained the sentence "My tears ricochet" the best at her Long Pond Studio sessions when she changed the last words to "Look at all of my tears, turning into your tears". That is the perfect description of my tears ricochet.
I love that you guys covered all of these. But, did you know that the songs are connected in some incredible timing ways? With Taylor's favorite number? Betty @ 3:13: "I'm here on your doorstep" Cardigan @ 3:13: "And you'd be standing in my front porch light" And also August 2:47 "I pulled up and said get in the car" Betty 2:47 "She said, James get in" Also 2 +4+7 is 13 and 2:47 is 13 seconds from 3 minutes....trilogy
Is it next swiftie Saturday yet? Can't wait!!! P.S: I was waiting for the lightbulb moment, when Eric started searching for his Cardigan and Betty notes I was like "yeeeees!" You guys are so much fun to enjoy the Eras with. ❤
If you guys haven't seen the Long Pond Studio session of My Tears Ricochet, you need to see it. You can see the pain she carries from the betrayal of her songs being taken.
My Inez headcanon is that the song Illicit Affairs is from Inez s pov. That is Augustine(girl from August) talking to Inez about the affair she had with James over the Summer. In my mind Inez was in a relationship with a teacher or a much older guy and is trying to tell Augustine that an affair won't work it will ruin you. The "don't call me kid" stuff it feels very much like the secret is more than just an affair but something that has destroyed her. They say the rumours from Inez like she liked to gossip or make up stories and maybe one was that she was dating a college/much older guy and no one believed her because she likes to make stuff up. So when she told Betty that James had been hanging out with another girl all Summer people might have thought it was another falsehood but this time it wasn't. That's just how I like to think about it. I feel like Illicit Affairs has a very angry Broadway solo feel to it.
My Tears Ricochet is a song about a ghost woman seeing her ex lover at her funeral. This is folklore, a fiction storytelling but the message of the song is related to Taylor's old catalog. So many references such as stolen lullabies and etc. Tay made this song in different way, metaphor in other word. She didn't need to reveal that this is about her old catalog, big machine record label, and Scott Borchetta. It's kinda obvious. Tay wrote this song alone without the help from Jack and Aaron. Track #5 and included in the setlist of the Eras Tour.
This is my favorite album... I don't know if anything will ever be able to top it. I mean TTPD came close but this one just has a place in my heart, just love.
The eras definitely didn’t start with the tour. It’s always been an album = an era. Because they’re all so wildly different from each other (except folklore/evermore) so each album (era) corresponds to a different moment in time
Listening to you all speak about James, I think you should check out the long pond song introductions for the trilogy, where Taylor speaks about the story and the characters
Im not sure why my tears ricochet shouldnt be from the perspective of someone you would root for. I think the whole song is about the masters heist, and especially directed at Scott Borchetta, the man who used to be like a father figure to her until he betrayed her trust in her eyes.
6:41 I couldn’t get tickets to the Eras Tour, but I had no problem ordering the original Folklore cardigan when it originally came out, so I’m really surprised to hear you haven’t been able to purchase one. I hope you can one day!
6:38 oh man hope you got it when it was just re-released for folklore’s 4th birthday! I was so close but it was sold out in every size by the time I had the money in my account
Super excited for this one!! Y’all should do more artists albums!! My ideal choice would be Weezer because they are always switching up their sound and Rivers Cuomo is a melodic genius. They also have really fun music videos to react to such as the pork and beans one which celebrates the OG era of RUclips. They are also celebrating their 30th anniversary of the blue album this year! Additionally, he also recently said he would love to make a rock album with Taylor after he heard she called him one of her musical hero’s back in 2010.
People think ALL of My tears ricochet is about Scott Borcetta. And no, she hasn’t said that publicly. That would lead to a lawsuit… Taylor had a really close relationship with Scott and saw him as a father figure. His betrayal when selling her masters to Scooter Braun, who Taylor despised long before he bought her masters is what this song is about
Yes, they're preparing Calvin for when they go to the concert. Lucky you can binge the Eras they already posted before waiting every two weeks for the next segments. ✌🏼
now that they brought back the cardigans for the 4 year anniversary in july (assuming you guys filmed this a while ago), did you guys get some cardigans?? hope you were able to!
I have the Speak Now and TTPD Cardigans and I’ve washed them a few times now, and they do just fine on the delicate cycle, in case anyone wonders :) even in the dryer they held up. Don’t get me wrong, I was terrified the first time, but so far so good!
41:22 this song always sounds to me like it is directed at scooter braun, like the "stolen lullabies", the "jewels i gave you" idk some parts of the song might not really fit with that logic
I am SO excited to have found this Channel. I'm from Newnan. I'm 48 and I've always enjoyed Taylor's music. BUT since TTPD I have been converted to Swiftie!! I have sooo many theories. Especially since my ex husband is a recovering addict that i had to walk away from. I understand that toxic, chaotic, beautiful love and the new talk of Matty Healy. OMG! Did I mention I'm 48? So i have no one to discuss them with. 😂😂my family hates me because I've watched over 10 live streaming concerts and refuse to acknowledge them 😂 They have heard nothing but TS since she dropped the album. And now that I know more about " the smallest man who ever lived" and how it started in 2016, listening to everything in her albums between then and now BLOW MY MIND with 🤡 I absolutely love the way you break it down and I feel validated.❤ Thank you! 🙏
The chapters on these videos are so discombobulated. Just chapter song reactions and song discussions. You make it so needlessly difficult to hop around
I love Taylor swift, but I am begging for a Noah Kahan Stick Season (Forever) reaction. Genuinely the first time in a long time that I’ve listened to an album and felt like there’s not a single song I’d skip. His writing makes you think and feel things you didn’t even know you were thinking and feeling.
IMO, Cardigan video is about Taylor's life...like she came as a singer and started singing country music and everytime she went deep into the music it takes her to new place (Taylor Swift and fearless and speak now) and then she got famous...when really dived into the music industry she was criticised unreasonably like wave after wave crashing on her in a vast dark ocean (red ,1989 era) but then again music took her to a safe place from that ocean....this video continues in first song "Willow" of the Evermore era.
Illicit affair I think is about a man who we know from earlier songs called her kid… We know from be😊that this man ant Taylor had an of and on relationship (even when he had a girl at home) In this song I think she’s to this man, please don’t call me kid don’t call me baby. (Don’t lovebomb me) you know how I feel for you, you know I can’t say no. Look at this god-forsaken fool you made me (god-forsaken, you have made me forsake everything I believe in)
Betty: “I’m only 17, I don’t know anything”
Cardigan: “Tried to change the ending, Peter losing Wendy”
James doesn’t admin fault, he blames his actions on being young and stupid but never fully apologizes. He refuses to grow up.
He's Peter pan

Cardigan- Betty’s pov
Betty- James pov
August- Augustine’s pov
Love triangle- James cheated on Betty with Augustine, Inez snitched on James.

I know you can't do all the songs but I was really hoping for This is me trying, that song hits so deep for me and it's sooo good
They restocked the OG cardigans on folklore's 4 year anniversary.
Wow I can't believe it's already been 4 years
My Tears Ricochet is such a great song - definitely one of my favourites on this album
hmm, i took "you'll be made of ashes, too" as "you can try to burn me to the ground but i'm taking you with me"
Guys, when you do TTPD, please include 'How Did It End.' It's lyrically her best work, and she did sing it at one of the shows! Please!🥺

I love watching the boys becomimg Swifties. I really hope they conclude this series by watching the Eras Tour
Another fact not revealed is that Joe Alwyn under the name of William Bowery helped for sure to write the song Betty.
My favourite song off Folklore is The Last Great American Dynasty.

It’s not on the new set list and they are just doing the set list to prepare for the tour
I hate it was cut from the tour because it’s one of my favorites from the album and I loved the live performance!

I saw that 'just not home' reaction. Top tier Taylor verse.
it's also my fave album, i just hope they'd reacted to exile as well :((
I take the ashes line as - you burnt me but burnt yourself doing it
Did Carmen and Jen get the folklore cardigan that she just re-released?? I'd missed the boat on that one too but now I was able to look over at it 🥰
We did 😭❤️
ughhh I wish you did peace or invisible string too ❤ my favorites!
Peace means so much to me 😭
you guys I think we need a watch party for the long pond studio sessions. right?
wonder when yall filmed this and if the girls were able to snag the cardigans when they got rereleased last week
It was filmed before the cardigans rerelease and we did get them!! ❤️❤️

Loved you sharing this with us ❤️❤️
Is it ok if i think Augustine was also wrong because she knew James was already in a relationship and still be with him ?
I think that’s okay ❤
Yes, she was morally wrong. But, hey kids 😭
Finally someone with common sense (when people take for her I’m going to assume that they can relate to her now 😂😂)
My take was always that Augustine didn’t know. That James lied. But 👀👀 maybe that was me having copium
amazing video! evermore is the next? 😉
My sister got me the 1989 cardigan for Christmas. :)
That’s an amazing sister ❤️
30:26 feels always valid you have a right to feels actions that are a result of those feelings are invalid
i was worried for a bit glad its here
56 mins lets go!
The chapters on these videos are so discombobulated. Just chapter song reactions and song discussions. You make it so needlessly difficult to hop around
I love Taylor swift, but I am begging for a Noah Kahan Stick Season (Forever) reaction. Genuinely the first time in a long time that I’ve listened to an album and felt like there’s not a single song I’d skip. His writing makes you think and feel things you didn’t even know you were thinking and feeling.
Did you get the folklore cardigan?! She released it again for the folklore anniversary
We did!! ❤❤
I love your reactions.
No exile? 🥺
They're doing the Eras playlist.
they are doing the songs that are on the eras tour to prepare for the live show :)
I think we can convince them to react to the other gems
it's not on the setlist
@@Loud_Nimai i just remembered they are doing a "surprise songs" episode so hopefully its there
I saw a poll for their own “surprise song” set - exile was by far the top…fingers crossed they added that to their set.
IMO, Cardigan video is about Taylor's life...like she came as a singer and started singing country music and everytime she went deep into the music it takes her to new place (Taylor Swift and fearless and speak now) and then she got famous...when really dived into the music industry she was criticised unreasonably like wave after wave crashing on her in a vast dark ocean (red ,1989 era) but then again music took her to a safe place from that ocean....this video continues in first song "Willow" of the Evermore era.
I’m so stupid I just realised y’all have been uploading this series in the order of the setlist!
Evermore next 👀?
Yes 😈
i'm currently in southport on holiday
Ahhhhhhhhhhh!!!! 😢😢😢😢 no Last Great American Dynasty.
why are we not clarifying that james cheated on betty and inez was the one who told betty the truth
They did. They guys understood it from the lyrics.
MTR is superior!!
Illicit affair I think is about a man who we know from earlier songs called her kid…
We know from be😊that this man ant Taylor had an of and on relationship (even when he had a girl at home)
In this song I think she’s to this man, please don’t call me kid don’t call me baby. (Don’t lovebomb me) you know how I feel for you, you know I can’t say no. Look at this god-forsaken fool you made me (god-forsaken, you have made me forsake everything I believe in)
