It’s about her younger brother. She’s realizing that growing up is hard and she’s telling him to stay young. It’s such a mature song from a young girl.
I love seeing men giving Taylor a chance. She usually gets brushed off as the childish 34 year old who is still writing songs about her exes, has no songwriting skills, her music sucks, she's so basic, etc. I love that you were also able to enjoy some of her less-known songs. Very underrated and well done! edit: yes i am a swiftie just to clarify, i just get excited seeing other people (specifically men) giving taylor's music a chance
and what should we listen to ? Beyonce ? who write an entire album about her cheating husband? . or Rihanna a mother with 2 kids singing about her Ass? or Ariana Grande ? about being a homewrecker .or adele ? about divorce? .
I am a man and I appreciate Taylor's artistic excellence. Been a regular listener since 2007. She is indeed a top tier songwriter. It's a common misconception that men hate her. It's more like many of them don't really care about her....
A lot of ppl who dont listen to her still just see her as a young girl singing about boys and cant stand shake it off. As a swiftie, i cant stand it either lol the radio ruined it so badly. Shes an amazing writer and performer. I highly recommend watching the reputation tour at least. Thank you for actually taking the time to listen to her music! Thats all we want, just try it. Theres an album for pretty much everyone bc she has a variety of genres.
EXACTLY. She's sung about her relationship with her mom, struggles with misogyny, betrayal of friends, the loss of her grandmother, scrutiny of the media, depression, low self-esteem, death, heartbreak, and other subjects besides just a silly little romance. Also, if she does, what does that matter? If she's happy and in love, let her be. You don't see people go after Bruno or Harry for being in love and writing songs about their suitors. Let people be themselves.
Fun fact! She has written every single one of her songs (some have cowriters of course) and she writes for other major major artists (ex. this is what you came for by rihanna) I think her song writing is the most impressive thing about her along with her live performances!! great video 👍🏼
*she didn’t write Untouchable from Fearless. It is, in fact, a cover of Untouchable by Luna Halo. Although she did tweak the lyrics a little bit and the arrangement is completely different.
As a swiftie, I loved this video. I honestly couldn’t care less if you don’t like Taylor’s music, but the fact that you gave it a chance and didn’t judge her for absolutely no reason makes me so happy. Everyone’s music taste is different, but you shouldn’t be judging people when you know nothing about them. ❤
@@rosanaconta3416except Aretha didn’t write most of the songs she sang. Sure she’s an amazing vocalist, but her songs were written for her, or covers, yet Taylor continues to write for herself and others, on top of being the biggest performer of this decade.
I lost 30 pounds listening to Taylor's discography while running through the woods. She helped me become a runner and it changed my life. She doesn't know it.....but she did. 😂 Love love love TS.❤
A lot of people that hate on her will cite her "toxic fanbase" as a reason to hate her, but really all we want is for people to give her an actual chance before forming an opinion on her, and I really appreciate you giving her a chance despite not really being her target audience!
@@Thepeanutcollectorextremely real !!! like,,, have yall watched football? or been near a football fan ever ??? 😭 they don't take that shit lightly either
People point to her fanbase sm because the crazy swifties are the ones that are noticed the most, it’s unfortunate that they don’t realize that most swifties are just people who enjoy her music.
Seriously! A beautiful song that I always skip (she has a few like that). Poor guy, being a new dad and hearing it for the 1st time while falling asleep. 🥺
@@heartz4tswiftright. and those same men complaining about swifties don't blame their fav football team when the fanbase acts up. i honestly think it's because she's a successful woman, and a lot of the people that enjoy her music are women.
She’s hyper-feminine and pop which I think people discount, her radio hits don’t reflect her artistry (like Shake it Off is her biggest hit, but is it the best written?). I don’t think the Kimye situation helped
Doesn't matter what I think. I haven't heard all her music. You have, and so you get to say anything you want about her music, because you can defend that opinion. Well done! This was fun to watch. Thanks for sharing.
I love when people end up turning around and becoming fans, but I also 100% respect someone who has looked into it themselves has respect themselves and can say they don't mind its just not for them. That's perfectly fine.
I became a full fledged fan after seeing the Eras movie,on a whim after a hard day at work. I ended up watching it 4 X and am a total fan. There were so many wonderful songs I'd never heard. But watching the joy on the screen and the little and big girls dancing and singing at the cinema. It was the most beautiful,joyful thing I've ever seen.
I recommend giving the Eras tour movie a chance too! It’s what hooked me. INCREDIBLE production values and so impressive what she does physically over 3+ hours
I never actively listened to Taylor until my FATHER-In-law and myself took my daughters and nieces to the Eras movie. The moment she started singing Cruel Summer, I burst into tears. No idea why. Watching the girls singing, dancing and being themselves without a care in the world made my heart soar! Four out the five girls are teenagers, and you know how self-conscious they can be. My father-in-law was impressed by her as well! He was having so much fun. This will be one of my favorite life-long memories. I have spent a lot of time listening to her since, and I think I can call myself a Swiftie at this point.
Man, I can't believe this video only has 500 views, because holy shit is it aweseome. I am a huge swiftie - I've been listening to her music for over a decade and it has gotten me through so so much. When it comes to songs like Look What You Made Me Do, I know they can be super repetitive but I do highly recommend watching her live performance from the eras tour (where she sings and dances live to crowds of up to 96k for almost four hours straight) or the music video! I falso think you would love the live performance of I Did Something Bad from the reputation tour because it makes that song even better than it already is. As for why people love her so much - I truly believe that she connects with her fans on a different level than most celebrities do. She has *never* had fans pay to meet her, she either picks them personally or has her family/team pick them. She goes out of her way to know her fans' names and their stories so when she meets them it doesn't feel like they're talking to someone who isn't human. As you know, she's incredibly vulnerable in her music and so so many people connect to that. I think a big factor in people being so obsessed with her is that she has been writing music for almost two decades, and a lot of her fans have grown up with her. Yes, a lot of her fans are young girls, but a lot of them are also women her age, who had nothing to connect with before Taylor started releasing music, and have grown up with her. All that being said, this video was such a fun watch and you should keep it up!
The thumbnail says “ this was terrible “. I really thought about it before deciding to try it. Not wanting to listen to someone bash on her, too many of those already.
While editing this video one of my friends shared their exact experience of being chosen by Taylor’s mom at one of her concerts years ago (with photo proof) so I thought that was cool! I’ll check out those live videos one day!
Midnights, blend….makes perfect sense. This is a concept album consisting of things that have kept her up at/past Midnight 🕛 through the years. 👌🏼✨ I appreciate your dedication. 🫶🏻
Your work ethic seems unbreakable! Work, social media editing, running, and family 😮. Plus, you are creative enough to create these video ideas. Big ups, bro! 👊
my dad isn’t a big swiftie (he’s a fan of some of the hits off 1989 and anti hero) but he went with me and my mom and sister to the eras tour concert and that was almost a year ago and he still says it’s probably the greatest concert he’s ever been to! i 100% reccomend going if u get a chance to
there is actually a reason why reputation is so intense. it was her comeback album after all the drama. that was when the kanye stuff came up with famous and the edited phone call.
Cuz everybody is getting TAYLORED out. She's ho hum, boring, and sings bubblegum pop. Never really paid much attention either way. She's not "my kind". But thanks to all YOU Taylor /Travis PANDEMONIUM FRENZY RABIED FANS, IM TOTALLY SICK OF BOTH OF THEM. I PROMISE I will forever turn the 🎼🎵🎶 channel, never ever watch another chiefs game, (even if they play MY favorite team), and I PROMISE I will throw a 💿 as far as I can, if my grandkids even ACT like they're gonna listen to her shit in my car or house. I Swear I'll never watch another Grammy or any OTHER awards shit show. That's MY swifty protest claim. Enough is ENOUGH!!! Taylor is worse than covid running rampant in this country. I'm afraid to touch a door handle for God's sake afraid the Taylor germ will paralyze me. THIS is INSANE. I get she's gonna have a fan base of teenie boppers, but you OLD ASS PPL are going a little insane!😵😠 , as I'm sitting here watching a clip of Rod Stewart on CBS Sunday. Swift would be hard pressed to stand in THAT class when she's 79. Plus she's gonna run out of men to write about.🤷♀️ 😁
I love everything about the production of this video but especially your commitment to keeping an open mind. Most people don’t realize that Taylor was the first artist to start her music career as a teenager who wrote her own songs from her own perspective. Then we watched and listened to her grow up in real time. Even songs that are about a character are still pulled from her experiences. I love what you said about Midnights being a combo of all her albums. She took her storytelling, sense of melody and pop, and the maturity of her 30’s and rolled it into one album. And yet with all this fame, she still manages to write lyrics that tap into the most relatable parts of the human experience.
This a real treat. You took a chance on Taylor's music and handled the assignment very well. You didn't just make assumptions and join the hate train. You actually listened to the songs and listed your favorites from each album. I call myself a surprise Swiftie. I didn't realize I knew so much of her music until I watched some the ERAs tour videos on YT. Sure, she's written songs about her exes, but this woman is a lyrical genius. IMO Folklore is some of her best work. Good job!
It's not just her music that I love about her. Midnights made me pay attention to her because I loved that album so much. Then I found out about the re-records and the drama behind it and I was like 😱 Then I heard about her Eras Tour and all the hard work, dedication, and insane bonuses she gave to her truck drivers (which I have a soft spot for). THEN I watched the Eras movie in a theater that was literally turned into a mini concert by the young Swifties and I brought my 5 year old daughter and they included her in the festivities which you can watch on my channel actually... THEN I found out that she was STILL re-recording her albums amidst the tour AND there were rumors that she was creating a new album (tortured poets) which blew my mind. The fact that she writes her own songs, produces her own videos, is heavily involved with her live performances, designs her albums/artwork and interacts with the fans in various ways leaving easter eggs in various ways is super fun to follow.
finally some recognition for exile!!!! this is my favorite!! thank you for the video and your respect to the audience. I don't usually watch lifestyle videos, but this one is great!
This video is so good. Very well produced, engaging, edited and paced very well, and I love your speaking voice. Great to see people gift Swift an honest and fair shot.
As a swift fan and a runner, thank you for this video!!! You're so real! Haha. Sometimes you just don't look forward to that run 😬 Reputation is one of my favourite albums and also the one that will keep me pumped up while running so I really feel you, haha. Keep it up, I would recommend watching the tour maybe at home if you don't look forward to being surrounded by die hard fans but if you can believe the stories people have told, who were not fans but went to the Eras tour for example, you'll be welcomed with open arms and the atmosphere will be great.
This is a really great video! I want to thank you for being respectful and open minded. This day and age on the internet people are so quick to hate things because they are mainstream and popular. I fell in love with Taylor swift and her music at a young age and have been a swiftie as long as I can remember. It always makes me made when people don’t give her a chance or say she’s bad when they’ve only hear shake it off or we are never ever getting back together. She’s successful so obviously she’s doing something right. This video was awesome!! You deserve more views and subs
You’re absolutely correct that Red is really the transition album cause that’s where she started working with mega hit producers, Max Martin and Shellback. They co-wrote many of her big pop hits with her on Red, 1989 and Reputation.
This is so underrated, this video is greatly edited, well spoken, and also funny and entertaining!! As a swiftie im glad you enjoyed her songs! And im glad you took the time to listen before you judged !! :)
Dude I always appreciate your videos man, these are fun to watch. I've been a fan of Taylor since her country days, she did a great song with Tim McGraw called Highway Don't Care which has a great video to go along with it.
thank you for putting long story short as your honorable mentions! the song is honestly my comfort song (and it's my fav TS song) and i feel like it's always thrown out to the side when talking about the evermore album.
Art and creation is a lonely place sometimes. Eventually, you either create a niche space or you kinda blow up or you stop creating. DO NOT stop creating. The care is obvious.
Finally So It Goes… gets the recognition it deserves. Loved the video so far. It’s always fun to see other people’s listening experience to her music,especially because I’ve been a casual/top hits listener of hers until the Midnights album :)
My wife was afraid of going with me to the eras tour because of all the crazy swifties but it was great. The vibes are positive and contagious. The crowd definitely just adds to the experience being more epic (77,000 people singing along to every single lyric!) If you can see her live, it’s definitely a worth it experience.
This is awesome. At first, I thought it was going to go bad, thanks to your thumbnail, then I read the comments and gave it a chance. Great production, sir.
I loved the format of this and your editing is on point! Can only imagine how long this took to put together. As someone who watches a lot of Taylor Swift reactions this was a refreshingly different way of going about it, well done! 👏🏼
16:46 - “Her and her writers”-so that would be her 😂 She sometimes has cowriters, but several have gone on the record saying they’re not sure they earned their cowriter credit while working with her). She wrote every song on her albums except “Untouchable”-she got a cowriter credit for her arrangement changes, but she didn’t do the lyrics there. I don’t blame you for not knowing that, though-it’s kind of an unbelievable amount of songs to write or cowrite as one person, I feel like. I think that watching her live performances would give you a better idea of her appeal, since she actually sounds better live for some reason? But I dunno. I hope you enjoyed your week of T Swizzle. :) (…did you listen to her non-album songs, like “Thug Story”? That was a parody she made with T-Pain when she was a teenager, iirc…)
Exile being one of your faves shows you have great taste! Such a well written song! If you want to watch more live performances (other than rep tour and eras) I would recommend 1989 tour version of WANEGBT and IKYWT which she does in a more rock way. Also IDSB at rep and/or AMAs it also great! I would also recommend giving a listen to renegade, a Collab she did kinda in the same style as folklore and evermore. Oh, and the Long Pond Studio session which is a live album of the folklore songs.
The album Midnights is a concept album about sleepless nights throughout her life. A lot of the songs reference or even sample earlier songs of hers musically, I assume to reference or hint that it is about the same situation/ time, etc. So the fact that you noticed that mix of her songs after just one listen is pretty cool!
my guy friend has been slowly introduced to taylor by someone (not me) and he has be basically become a swiftie, he used to really not like her but now he thinks she’s a really incredible artist which just proves to me I think everyone should give taylor a chance and if you have you don’t like her that’s completely fine and obviously you don’t have to commit yourself to an entire week of taylor but i’m sure she has made at least one song you like all of the people i know who don’t like her music have a taylor song they like so yea!
love this video, love your honesty. wouldn't say I'm a Swifty however, I like almost every album. really think you did a fantastic analysis, very respectful and appreciated.
respect for u bro. I did something similar when my girlfriend got us eras tour tickets. Let me just say I'm a firm swiftie when it comes to Speak Now, Folklore, Lover and Midnights. Her vault tracks are great on all her re-releases too
Hi! Swiftie here. I used to be a hater waaaay back. I couldn't understand the hype!! But then I listened to "ME!" (funny, many swifties dislike this one) And I was immediately hooked. I can honest to God say this woman has healed so many parts of myself I didn't even know needed healing. I'd say that's why people love her. But oh well, apart from your regular listener we die hard swifties just adore her and the community so much. Thanks for the video!! It was so cool to see you give her a chance.
I only listened to her because the entire universe sent her songs like synchronicity to my head. I’m on a spiritual awakening called the twinflame journey and the synchronicities are absolutely ridiculous. She found me in 2022 when I heard my first synchronicity walking through Vegas and I had satori to a song called “delicate” then again in 2023 “it’s me I’m the problem it’s me” during my dark night of the soul, then finally “all too well” was my SEPERATION phase. Taylor was orchestrated for my awakening. She soundtracked it.
The first time I heard “Ready for It” I was with the biggest love and betrayal of my life. First date. I was trying on new clothes he was buying me in the dressing room while he was picking out more in the store. It was on the stereo while I tried on a really cute outfit. That’s when I realized Taylor’s appeal.
Love this, love how sweet and willing you are when critiquing and listening. Folklore and evermore are lyrical masterpieces, the writing is so beautiful
The fact he gave wildest dreams as an honorable mention makes me happy, wildest dreams has been my fav song since 2015 when I first heard the album wildest dreams was automatically the best song I’ve ever heard and yes I’m a swiftie I quite enjoyed this knowing there’s barley no guy swifties which is sad bcus I feel like most guys would like folklore-evermore-1989-and rep
love this style of video, but i especially love it because this video is more about you than just taylor swift which I feel that a lot of other youtubers do. i feel like i learned about you and loved it!! thank you
I love this video so much. I watched this video 3 months ago and decided to listen to all the Taylor swift albums myself, and that’s how I became a swiftie. Thank you :)
I watched the whole video and I am a die-hard swiftie and I appreciate the chill rating to it instead of stopping because it was country or maybe a genre you didn't like and being too quick to judge a book by its cover. I love a lot of the songs you picked and I think you have good taste in music. (Yes, rep was a whole 'nother era)
As a swiftie who has been a fan since Our Song dropped on RUclips back in the day... I applaud you for this! What a challenge. I like to joke with my friends that she has Grow and Show there are the ones that stick out right away then there are the ones that take sometimes years to appreciate fully. Her discography is massive so there are a lot of songs that i really didn't like when I first heard them. Then depending on if there is a live performance or a specific moment where a song just suddenly clicked... 4 days later you are singing the bridge of a song you didn't like 😅.
Thank you for doing this! Big kudos to you. He songs are her life story. Lots of material and feelings on things that have been done to her and around her. Her styles change, right along with TTPD, too. Thanks for your time and your time with us alongside!
this entire time i was thinking don’t get to folklore and evermore for the runs don’t. its rlly good (there my fave albums) but they will NOT help with running😅
i have to give you a shout out for the amazing concept of the video, the structure and the editing! So good, I think it deserves a congratulations on that!
I love that So It Goes is in your top 3... it's one of my faves too and doesnt get enough love! And it was the only song she left out of the Rep tour, which was disappointing.
yess i love how you said in the end that it's important to give artists a chance, even if you may not like them at first. and then it's fine to dislike their work, as long as you made an effort to listen to them and come into it with an open mindset. i love your top 3 albums and songs!!! 1989 is my favorite album and style is my favorite song overall, so im glad someone else is also seeing how good 1989 and style are and putting them at #1 where they belong!!
What are your thoughts on Taylor Swift?
She's good but very overrated. She's got some catchy stuff.
In my opinion she is the best of the best
she's the queen of the industry
@@szymon2897 frr
i love her! in my opinion,she is the entire music industry.
never grow up isn’t about her daughter, it’s about her
She dosent have a daughter (unless your talking about her cats)
@@starlightswift_13thats cute tho even if she never had a cat in 2010 (probably andreas)
It is about her brother.
It’s about her younger brother. She’s realizing that growing up is hard and she’s telling him to stay young. It’s such a mature song from a young girl.
It's about whoever you want, art portrays emotions that can be tied to multiple things, aka symbolism or allegories
I love seeing men giving Taylor a chance. She usually gets brushed off as the childish 34 year old who is still writing songs about her exes, has no songwriting skills, her music sucks, she's so basic, etc. I love that you were also able to enjoy some of her less-known songs.

Man, I can't believe this video only has 500 views, because holy shit is it aweseome. I am a huge swiftie - I've been listening to her music for over a decade and it has gotten me through so so much. When it comes to songs like Look What You Made Me Do, I know they can be super repetitive but I do highly recommend watching her live performance from the eras tour (where she sings and dances live to crowds of up to 96k for almost four hours straight) or the music video! I falso think you would love the live performance of I Did Something Bad from the reputation tour because it makes that song even better than it already is.
As for why people love her so much - I truly believe that she connects with her fans on a different level than most celebrities do. She has *never* had fans pay to meet her, she either picks them personally or has her family/team pick them. She goes out of her way to know her fans' names and their stories so when she meets them it doesn't feel like they're talking to someone who isn't human. As you know, she's incredibly vulnerable in her music and so so many people connect to that. I think a big factor in people being so obsessed with her is that she has been writing music for almost two decades, and a lot of her fans have grown up with her. Yes, a lot of her fans are young girls, but a lot of them are also women her age, who had nothing to connect with before Taylor started releasing music, and have grown up with her.
All that being said, this video was such a fun watch and you should keep it up!
The thumbnail says “ this was terrible “. I really thought about it before deciding to try it. Not wanting to listen to someone bash on her, too many of those already.
@angiepeterson1282 this exactly tbh. I clicked to read the comments to see if the video would be worth watching all the way through
While editing this video one of my friends shared their exact experience of being chosen by Taylor’s mom at one of her concerts years ago (with photo proof) so I thought that was cool! I’ll check out those live videos one day!
Hey, I'm a teenage boy and I think she's awesome!!! don't count the males out of her fanbase lol
I also think she is a bad ass for going up against the most powerful people in the music industry and Alex Soros.
This video is great!
Midnights, blend….makes perfect sense. This is a concept album consisting of things that have kept her up at/past Midnight 🕛 through the years. 👌🏼✨ I appreciate your dedication. 🫶🏻
I didn't know that about midnights! Thanks for the info!
Your work ethic seems unbreakable! Work, social media editing, running, and family 😮. Plus, you are creative enough to create these video ideas. Big ups, bro! 👊
I'm constantly learning how to be better at time management!
He definitely has his executive functioning on the highest level…I am jealous,lol
@@RellyMoorerteach us too please İ suck at time management
youre such a chill guy this is so underrated
just what I was thinking. People tend to go to extremes in their opinion and attitude but this was just so comfortable to watch. Thanks
bro predicted the future, he's just a chill guy 😭🙏
@MarthaSWIFTIE13 crying i forgot about this
@abigailking3873 loll 😭😭
my dad isn’t a big swiftie (he’s a fan of some of the hits off 1989 and anti hero) but he went with me and my mom and sister to the eras tour concert and that was almost a year ago and he still says it’s probably the greatest concert he’s ever been to! i 100% reccomend going if u get a chance to
Maybe one day!
there is actually a reason why reputation is so intense. it was her comeback album after all the drama. that was when the kanye stuff came up with famous and the edited phone call.
vid popped up on my home page and i was shocked to see only 300 views?!??! u deserve sm more lol this was hella enjoyable
Cuz everybody is getting TAYLORED out. She's ho hum, boring, and sings bubblegum pop. Never really paid much attention either way. She's not "my kind". But thanks to all YOU Taylor /Travis PANDEMONIUM FRENZY RABIED FANS, IM TOTALLY SICK OF BOTH OF THEM. I PROMISE I will forever turn the 🎼🎵🎶 channel, never ever watch another chiefs game, (even if they play MY favorite team), and I PROMISE I will throw a 💿 as far as I can, if my grandkids even ACT like they're gonna listen to her shit in my car or house. I Swear I'll never watch another Grammy or any OTHER awards shit show. That's MY swifty protest claim. Enough is ENOUGH!!! Taylor is worse than covid running rampant in this country. I'm afraid to touch a door handle for God's sake afraid the Taylor germ will paralyze me. THIS is INSANE. I get she's gonna have a fan base of teenie boppers, but you OLD ASS PPL are going a little insane!😵😠 , as I'm sitting here watching a clip of Rod Stewart on CBS Sunday. Swift would be hard pressed to stand in THAT class when she's 79. Plus she's gonna run out of men to write about.🤷♀️ 😁
I love everything about the production of this video but especially your commitment to keeping an open mind. Most people don’t realize that Taylor was the first artist to start her music career as a teenager who wrote her own songs from her own perspective. Then we watched and listened to her grow up in real time. Even songs that are about a character are still pulled from her experiences. I love what you said about Midnights being a combo of all her albums. She took her storytelling, sense of melody and pop, and the maturity of her 30’s and rolled it into one album. And yet with all this fame, she still manages to write lyrics that tap into the most relatable parts of the human experience.
This a real treat. You took a chance on Taylor's music and handled the assignment very well. You didn't just make assumptions and join the hate train. You actually listened to the songs and listed your favorites from each album. I call myself a surprise Swiftie. I didn't realize I knew so much of her music until I watched some the ERAs tour videos on YT. Sure, she's written songs about her exes, but this woman is a lyrical genius. IMO Folklore is some of her best work. Good job!
your folklore taste is incredible!!! also love seeing so it goes get some love!!!
It's not just her music that I love about her. Midnights made me pay attention to her because I loved that album so much. Then I found out about the re-records and the drama behind it and I was like 😱
Then I heard about her Eras Tour and all the hard work, dedication, and insane bonuses she gave to her truck drivers (which I have a soft spot for). THEN I watched the Eras movie in a theater that was literally turned into a mini concert by the young Swifties and I brought my 5 year old daughter and they included her in the festivities which you can watch on my channel actually... THEN I found out that she was STILL re-recording her albums amidst the tour AND there were rumors that she was creating a new album (tortured poets) which blew my mind.
The fact that she writes her own songs, produces her own videos, is heavily involved with her live performances, designs her albums/artwork and interacts with the fans in various ways leaving easter eggs in various ways is super fun to follow.
As a swiftie, you have great taste in her music! Also, I love that you’re staying judgement free and giving all of her songs a chance.
finally some recognition for exile!!!! this is my favorite!! thank you for the video and your respect to the audience. I don't usually watch lifestyle videos, but this one is great!
Dude you totally hooked me with this format! Would love to see you do this with other artists! Keep on keeping on! Recs: The Beatles, Ghost, ABBA. :)
Thanks! Maybe I’ll do another music specific one!
This video is so good. Very well produced, engaging, edited and paced very well, and I love your speaking voice. Great to see people gift Swift an honest and fair shot.
As a swift fan and a runner, thank you for this video!!! You're so real! Haha. Sometimes you just don't look forward to that run 😬 Reputation is one of my favourite albums and also the one that will keep me pumped up while running so I really feel you, haha. Keep it up, I would recommend watching the tour maybe at home if you don't look forward to being surrounded by die hard fans but if you can believe the stories people have told, who were not fans but went to the Eras tour for example, you'll be welcomed with open arms and the atmosphere will be great.
my fav part about this video is the accidental extra day, you have a really chill vibe man, keep doin this
This is a really great video! I want to thank you for being respectful and open minded. This day and age on the internet people are so quick to hate things because they are mainstream and popular. I fell in love with Taylor swift and her music at a young age and have been a swiftie as long as I can remember. It always makes me made when people don’t give her a chance or say she’s bad when they’ve only hear shake it off or we are never ever getting back together. She’s successful so obviously she’s doing something right. This video was awesome!! You deserve more views and subs
You’re absolutely correct that Red is really the transition album cause that’s where she started working with mega hit producers, Max Martin and Shellback. They co-wrote many of her big pop hits with her on Red, 1989 and Reputation.
11:26 i like to call it “swiftie senses”, its when a swiftie spots something that’s Taylor swift related
That's crazy 🤣
Glad you gave her chance! I’m a proud swiftie and can’t wait for the next album 💿
ttpd is so good
This is so underrated, this video is greatly edited, well spoken, and also funny and entertaining!! As a swiftie im glad you enjoyed her songs! And im glad you took the time to listen before you judged !! :)
ikrr!!I love her sm, I cover tay's songs, do check out 😁!
Wow such an underrated channel! Keep up the great work
Dude I always appreciate your videos man, these are fun to watch. I've been a fan of Taylor since her country days, she did a great song with Tim McGraw called Highway Don't Care which has a great video to go along with it.
oooo I'll check that song out!
thank you for putting long story short as your honorable mentions! the song is honestly my comfort song (and it's my fav TS song) and i feel like it's always thrown out to the side when talking about the evermore album.
FR LONG STORY SHORT IS SO GOOD
And Happiness ofc
@@cookiegirl1097yes. 😭😭 and happiness is beautifully written.
@@horizon-gold IKE
Thank you for giving her a real chance! This Swiftie appreciates the honest try!
Ikr !!
I don't understand why you don't have wayyyyy more subscribers with the level of production and content. Well done!!!🎉
Wow, thank you!
Art and creation is a lonely place sometimes. Eventually, you either create a niche space or you kinda blow up or you stop creating.
DO NOT stop creating. The care is obvious.
Finally So It Goes… gets the recognition it deserves. Loved the video so far. It’s always fun to see other people’s listening experience to her music,especially because I’ve been a casual/top hits listener of hers until the Midnights album :)
My wife was afraid of going with me to the eras tour because of all the crazy swifties but it was great. The vibes are positive and contagious. The crowd definitely just adds to the experience being more epic (77,000 people singing along to every single lyric!) If you can see her live, it’s definitely a worth it experience.
This is awesome. At first, I thought it was going to go bad, thanks to your thumbnail, then I read the comments and gave it a chance. Great production, sir.
the editing on this video is A+. really enjoyed this. also made me miss running!
Just found this channel. Really enjoyed the editing and pace.
I loved the format of this and your editing is on point! Can only imagine how long this took to put together. As someone who watches a lot of Taylor Swift reactions this was a refreshingly different way of going about it, well done! 👏🏼
Thank you!
Lavender Haze is my favorite. It's on my workout playlist lol
I mean it's a good song!
16:46 - “Her and her writers”-so that would be her 😂 She sometimes has cowriters, but several have gone on the record saying they’re not sure they earned their cowriter credit while working with her). She wrote every song on her albums except “Untouchable”-she got a cowriter credit for her arrangement changes, but she didn’t do the lyrics there.
I don’t blame you for not knowing that, though-it’s kind of an unbelievable amount of songs to write or cowrite as one person, I feel like.
I think that watching her live performances would give you a better idea of her appeal, since she actually sounds better live for some reason? But I dunno. I hope you enjoyed your week of T Swizzle. :) (…did you listen to her non-album songs, like “Thug Story”? That was a parody she made with T-Pain when she was a teenager, iirc…)
dear john is so good!! im so glad its ur fav from speak now 💞
Sameeeee
1:52 Your playlist being 13 hours is iconic because 13 is her favourite number
Exile being one of your faves shows you have great taste! Such a well written song!
If you want to watch more live performances (other than rep tour and eras) I would recommend 1989 tour version of WANEGBT and IKYWT which she does in a more rock way. Also IDSB at rep and/or AMAs it also great!
I would also recommend giving a listen to renegade, a Collab she did kinda in the same style as folklore and evermore. Oh, and the Long Pond Studio session which is a live album of the folklore songs.
Running to reputation would have been a vibe
I"ve watched this video while resting from my eye surgery and couldn't see the images, still, great video. Amazing storytelling
This is amazingly edited! Props to you man
I love your open-mindedness and your message at the end really hit home. It’s a good reminder just to always give things a try. Appreciate you!
HOW DO YOU ONLY HAVE 3K SUBS?!?! This is really high quality content!
LMAO the rollercoaster of red “back up, back down, back up” is so real
The album Midnights is a concept album about sleepless nights throughout her life. A lot of the songs reference or even sample earlier songs of hers musically, I assume to reference or hint that it is about the same situation/ time, etc. So the fact that you noticed that mix of her songs after just one listen is pretty cool!
my guy friend has been slowly introduced to taylor by someone (not me) and he has be basically become a swiftie, he used to really not like her but now he thinks she’s a really incredible artist which just proves to me I think everyone should give taylor a chance and if you have you don’t like her that’s completely fine and obviously you don’t have to commit yourself to an entire week of taylor but i’m sure she has made at least one song you like all of the people i know who don’t like her music have a taylor song they like so yea!
love this video, love your honesty. wouldn't say I'm a Swifty however, I like almost every album. really think you did a fantastic analysis, very respectful and appreciated.
Wow. You put in the work! This was great!
exile being number #2 for ur fav songs makes me so happy
respect for u bro. I did something similar when my girlfriend got us eras tour tickets. Let me just say I'm a firm swiftie when it comes to Speak Now, Folklore, Lover and Midnights. Her vault tracks are great on all her re-releases too
this is so underrated!
I thoroughly enjoyed your journey and commentary, and the way you put the video together.
I like that you are being open minded and keeping it real too.
this is very off topic but pfp twins!!
Hi! Swiftie here. I used to be a hater waaaay back. I couldn't understand the hype!! But then I listened to "ME!" (funny, many swifties dislike this one) And I was immediately hooked. I can honest to God say this woman has healed so many parts of myself I didn't even know needed healing. I'd say that's why people love her. But oh well, apart from your regular listener we die hard swifties just adore her and the community so much. Thanks for the video!! It was so cool to see you give her a chance.
Real swiftie’s don’t really care if you like her music or not they just care if you respect her as a person🫶🏻🫶🏻 (great vid btw)
I only listened to her because the entire universe sent her songs like synchronicity to my head. I’m on a spiritual awakening called the twinflame journey and the synchronicities are absolutely ridiculous. She found me in 2022 when I heard my first synchronicity walking through Vegas and I had satori to a song called “delicate” then again in 2023 “it’s me I’m the problem it’s me” during my dark night of the soul, then finally “all too well” was my SEPERATION phase. Taylor was orchestrated for my awakening. She soundtracked it.
I love the fact that you give her a chance and don't judge her like sm other ppl
love this, especially the last message/lesson.
1989 is my favorite album
bro Taylor isn’t that bad yall just hate
The first time I heard “Ready for It” I was with the biggest love and betrayal of my life. First date. I was trying on new clothes he was buying me in the dressing room while he was picking out more in the store. It was on the stereo while I tried on a really cute outfit. That’s when I realized Taylor’s appeal.
YESSS FINALLY SOMEONE WITH EVERMORE IN THEIR TOP 3 OF EVERMORE IT'S ONE OF MY FAVORITE TAYLOR SONGS OF ALL TIME!!!!!
IKR!!! It’s the forgotten one😭
Love this, love how sweet and willing you are when critiquing and listening. Folklore and evermore are lyrical masterpieces, the writing is so beautiful
The fact he gave wildest dreams as an honorable mention makes me happy, wildest dreams has been my fav song since 2015 when I first heard the album wildest dreams was automatically the best song I’ve ever heard and yes I’m a swiftie I quite enjoyed this knowing there’s barley no guy swifties which is sad bcus I feel like most guys would like folklore-evermore-1989-and rep
I actually do that every week
I figured the average Swiftie would do this on the regular lol
I’ve been a swiftie for 4 years since folklore, and I’ve never seen a man have this much dedication towards Taylor Swift ever
so well edited
Thank you!
love this style of video, but i especially love it because this video is more about you than just taylor swift which I feel that a lot of other youtubers do. i feel like i learned about you and loved it!! thank you
as a swift I have all been doing this for a while 😭😂 ( I do listen to other artist but her mostly)
I love this video so much. I watched this video 3 months ago and decided to listen to all the Taylor swift albums myself, and that’s how I became a swiftie. Thank you :)
I watched the whole video and I am a die-hard swiftie and I appreciate the chill rating to it instead of stopping because it was country or maybe a genre you didn't like and being too quick to judge a book by its cover. I love a lot of the songs you picked and I think you have good taste in music. (Yes, rep was a whole 'nother era)
As a swiftie who has been a fan since Our Song dropped on RUclips back in the day... I applaud you for this! What a challenge.
I like to joke with my friends that she has Grow and Show there are the ones that stick out right away then there are the ones that take sometimes years to appreciate fully. Her discography is massive so there are a lot of songs that i really didn't like when I first heard them. Then depending on if there is a live performance or a specific moment where a song just suddenly clicked... 4 days later you are singing the bridge of a song you didn't like 😅.
Sniff sniff? What’s that? I smell an underrated RUclipsr! ❤
Thank you for doing this!
Big kudos to you.
He songs are her life story.
Lots of material and feelings on things that have been done to her and around her. Her styles change, right along with TTPD, too. Thanks for your time and your time with us alongside!
this entire time i was thinking don’t get to folklore and evermore for the runs don’t. its rlly good (there my fave albums) but they will NOT help with running😅
i have to give you a shout out for the amazing concept of the video, the structure and the editing! So good, I think it deserves a congratulations on that!
Ur so underrated!!
I didn’t like look what you made me do until the live version on the eras tour, now I LOVE it haha
people need to stop hating Taylor swift for no reason
I love that So It Goes is in your top 3... it's one of my faves too and doesnt get enough love! And it was the only song she left out of the Rep tour, which was disappointing.
She played it some nights in place of dwoht
@@ilovetaysabchapliv oh ok, I was referring to the Rep tour movie. I'm glad she played it at some of the shows on that tour.
1:48 ofc it's 13 hours
Finally!!!! So It Goes gets a mention!!! It’s so underrated!
SWIFTIES GATHER HERE
Here
Hereee
yess i love how you said in the end that it's important to give artists a chance, even if you may not like them at first. and then it's fine to dislike their work, as long as you made an effort to listen to them and come into it with an open mindset. i love your top 3 albums and songs!!! 1989 is my favorite album and style is my favorite song overall, so im glad someone else is also seeing how good 1989 and style are and putting them at #1 where they belong!!
