the fact that augustine called her relationship with james “summer love” and james called it “a summer thing” still haunts me to this day
yeah it’s very sad when you love someone more than they love you
YOU'RE RIGHT
poor august:(
i didn't even realize this... until now.... raise ur hand if you've ever been Augustine
heartbreaking.
she's a genius writer, imagine if she wrote a novel
Listen, I would love if she writes one in the future
I would love that
*coughs in all the young dudes*
@@jayda9823 I love this conspiracy hahah
she wrote all the young dudes
if you do every single album of hers, I would more than gladly watch them.
pleeeesse do
ahh thanks! you can watch lover here: ruclips.net/video/21uH1_y9LO8/видео.html
Sameeee pls do it
YESSSSSSSSSSSS
l
seven is underrated
YES it's honestly one of my Taylor's favourite
Yeah! Seven and mirror ball are my favourites from folklore
Agree
YES IT’S MY FAVORITE
Not in my house it isn't
This is really stupid so don’t judge me, but I just noticed that August The eighth month is the eighth track on the album and now I’m really freaking out lol
Wow!!
Track 1 - the 1, Track 7 - seven, Track 8 - august. There are a few number plays in this album, and it makes me wonder if there's more.
Seven it the 7th track
@Rebecca Walsh omg!! mind blown
August; the 8th month is track number 8th, on the 8th album of Taylor
Taylor sings "I've come too far to watch some name dropping sleaze tell me what are my words worth" in "the lakes", that can be a reference to Scooter Braun too.
yes!
it could also be a reference to William Wordsworth, an english poet who wrote hundreds of poems while living in the lake district
For sure
*🛴
we dont say that word
This album is so complex I love it. This really is the album of the year.
true. if it doesn't win any grammys......it's a scam
It won album of the year at the grammys
YOURE VOICE IS SO SOOTHING, ITS SOUNDS SO PROFFESIONAL.
awww thank you!
mad woman is also a reference to Jane eyre (the mad woman in the basement and Edward's first wife) Edward kept his wife hidden in a basement since he was ashamed of her she also mentioned in the making of the man calling out the music industry " a man is allowed to react but a woman is only allowed to overreact "
I forgot to say this but Taylor mentions Jane eyre a second time with invisible strings as in the book it says " I have a strange feeling regard to you as if I had a string somewhere in my left ribs tightly knotted to a similar string in you " i think Edward said that
No Jane says that I think
i also think that hoax can reference a bit of her life as well? the line “you know it still hurts underneath my scars from when they pulled me apart”; and how “they” could be about the media and how “they” constantly demonize taylor
yes definitely!
Also “you know I left a part of me back in New York” !!!
@@MadisonGraceN I actually always thought this song was about Selena and Justin. That line, the scars, in reference to Selena’s surgery. Taylor has mentioned using other people’s break ups as story lines now that she is in a solid relationship. For some reason, that is how I’ve always imagined this song.
0:33 the 1
0:50 cardigan
1:13 the last great american dynasty
1:44 exile
2:15 my tears ricochet
2:40 mirrorball
3:03 seven
3:35 august
3:56 this is me trying
4:18 illicit affairs
4:32 invisible string
5:02 mad woman
5:33 epiphany
5:58 betty
6:33 peace
7:03 hoax
7:30 the lakes
Doing the Lord's work
Genuinely curious, what does this mean? Is there a hidden message at the time stamps you mentioned?
Reputation next? ♡
yes!
@@MadisonGraceN evermore too!
Joe also co-wrote exile
yes!!!
Not them writing a heartbreak song while being in a relationship 💀✋🏻
and betty
@@flamingaish this didn’t age well
@@antoniaalvarez8453 uh oh 😭
am i the only one who thinks that peace is connected with willow music video SOO MUCHH
and also invisible stringgg
this is the beauty of folklore lthough there might be a certain interpretation that taylor thought of while writing these songs they are all up for interpretation. like i always associated "this is me trying" with academic stress and validation especially with lines like "i had the shiniest wheels now they're rusting" hinting that it was easy to be a top student as a kid but as the years went on i wore out. mirrorball is a song i associated with being a people pleaser, always adjusting into peoples expectations and liking so they would like you.
just my opinion tho have a nice days folks :)
I also remember her grandfather who came back from war.. the date was August Seven, 1943. August. Seven!! See that?
Y’all I want a book and a movie about this love triangle 😫
same
SAME
I’m thinking of writing one. Like a trilogy with each one of their povs.
You should totally explain the Red album🙏
i will!!
ok hold on, how did it take me 16 months to find out that the entire album isn’t exclusively about James, Betty, and Augustine lol? like, I obviously saw parallels with Taylor’s life, but I thought every song had something to do with the same love triangle
i still keep that in the back of my mind… it’s kinda nice to think abt
to me it's the other way around: the love triangles IS ACTUALLY about Taylor's real life, but in disguise. I think.
Lover and reputation
here's lover! ruclips.net/video/21uH1_y9LO8/видео.html
The fact that I had no idea August was a person😯
Same
I applaud you for being able to explain each song in detail in just 8 minutes!! :)
hearing the explanation of peace is so heartbreaking after their split
i have always listened to betty like james is a girl and i won’t stop lol, idk why but it just feels so much better
me too. taylor said gay rights ! kind of !
Folklore is actually all about the life of Rebecca Harkness. Rebecca and Betty are the same person (Rebecca also went by Betty), and it follows her life from when she was a teenager in a love triangle in St. Louis; to the success she found after she left. Taylor sometimes gives us her own perspective on things and how Rebecca influenced her and how Rebecca’s story changed her perspective on life (TLGAD, Seven, Invisible String).
this is a great concept, but taylor stated in the long pond studio sessions how she purely wanted to put her imagination into specific songs. im not disputing what you said, but she has never stated that. she talked about how she had the mindset of a small quaint town with so much occurring/happening in it. :)
her lyrics are truly art.
she also says in Betty when James talks about how Augustine said "get in the car" it's at the exact same time in August when Augustine says "get in the car"
I’m Betty it was “James get in” not “Get in the car” but it is interesting
This is also true for the 'front porch'! I didnt realize it happens twice 👀
it's amazing the stories she tells in every song that's why i love her so much♥️
Bless you! Thank you so much for your explanation to every detail. I really appreciate what you're doing ❤️
im new on the fandom, so thank you soooo much for all you videos, they help a lot!!!!
I haven't listened to these two albums yet, I've always loved and respected her but this overview just brought tears to my eyes. She writes and sings so good, performs so good, a true storyteller
I can't count the times I have listened to this album. It has saved my sanity during the lockdown. The songs are so good.
this is incredible!! i could listen to these for ages, your voice is also the most soothing thing ever ??? it all sounds so professional
ahh thank you so much i actually hate my voice so that means a lot!
Nooo it's nice
She’s just a freaking goddess
i actually had no idea that folklore had this much to it!!!
I love this breakdown!!
I love this breakdown. U should definitely do When We All Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go next
immediately when i heard your voice for the first time i could just tell that you are such a nice person and i just love your voice. i love you thank you for this❤
Very nice, Madison! It is really nice to hear from someone so obviously educated, and well-spoken. When I saw the title, I thought this might be almost click-bait, but you did a nice job. No contractions, no slang, no profanity, no lol's- do you have any idea how rare that is in this world? You are obviously quite young, and I have to give you high praise and tell you that no matter the temptation to give in to the pressure to seen like a Marjorie Green- please remain this educated version of yourself! I will absolutely be subscribing, and recommending you to others. The other thing that was so nice, is the lack of drama. Thank you.
Yay it's here! Don't have time to watch right now but I'm so happy you made this!
This album... I cant even express how amazing it is.
Thank you for this. It made my day :)
Ms. Swift’s lyrics mean more to me every single day. She’s truly incredible.
This was simply FANTASTIC 🤩!!!!! Just what I needed, Thank you soooo much ☺️
ahh thank you!
Love you for your addressing the non-specificity in breaking shit down. 🙌🏼
hi i love this video so much (and the evermore one)! i just wanted to add some other information i retained for "the lakes - bonus track" and share it with you guys :) the song talks about how poetry is a dead art, just like her type/genre of music. now it seems that everyone is into the very superficial stuff and not the old, true, sentimental things. i think she explains it really well with the lyrics "take me to the lakes where all the poets went to die". i think it displays our new generation so well because shes saying that true authentic love and art is dying and it is our job to keep it alive!
yes!!!
Your voice is so soothing!
I went back to my "Liked videos" to rewatch your evermore video. Then I thought about checking your channel if you ever had a folklore video. Really appreciate your inputs about Taylor's songs. Maybe I'll go watch your covers next😁
thank you so much for your support!!
HOW IS SHE SO GENIOUS LIKE WHAT
Wow! You explained them so well. Would love to these kind of videos for her other albums. x
i love this !! short and to the point, new subscriber ❤️
I *knew* mirrorball was Taylor's message to every listener going through Covid-19! It kinda makes me think of a song you'd hear in a graduation night party, which all 2020 graduates had to miss out on.
Yes prom scene movie vibesssss
I LOVED THIS
I always interpretated peace as a song about a love that isn't meant to be because the personalities don't quite match, and the narrator desperately wanting it to work out and be willing to give anything. Like "I'm not perfect for you, I will never give you peace, but I'm hoping I'll be enough if I give you my all". Reminds me of a relationship I went through that turned a bit toxic by the end.
I’d always interpreted “this is me trying” as Taylor speaking to the listener. It’s her confessing how she feels like she hasn’t handled previous things in the best way and that she wants us to know right now as the world is falling to ash, she is trying
Your such a good content creator continue doing what your doing!!!
that means a lot thank you!!!
I feel so blessed that I found your channel. It's really underrated
that's so sweet thank you so much!
this is so good omfg
hi i’m gonna need one of these for every taylor album thank you ❤️
coming right up
I’m here for these
This was great!! Thanks for sharing
Madi, you're so good at what you do! Your voice is so beautiful, you could be a podcaster! Much love from Brazil
that means a ton, thank you so much!
I love it. Really appreciate your video. Thank you!
I always connect my tears ricochet with Karlie Kloss,mostly because of what she said in the long pond sessions abt it also being abt a betrayal from someone who you would never expect and then a reference to her songs “ you hear my stolen lullabies”
I love the song 'epiphany' but I can't listen without crying. 😭
This video gave me so much inspiration to draw
Thank you for this!! Concise and informative!!!
why did i watch this in class because now i am crying
Lovely explanation
Loved your voice 🙌
Betty - 2:46 "get in the car"
August - 2:46 "James get in"
Cardigan - 3:14 " standing in my front porch light"
Betty - 3:14 " I'm hear in your doorstep"
Genius!!!!🙀🙀🙀
WHAT
2 : 47 betty and august
2 + 4 + 7 = 13.
I love this! If you have time and want to, please do Fine Line! :)
When I listen to Folkore I always imagine "the 1", "august" and "ilicit affairs" is the perspective of augustine, "Betty" and "this is me trying" from James and "hoax" and "mad woman" from betty. But idk
she is such a genius omfg
i love this video so much
I love it so much thank you 💗
This album is beautiful, I feel like I have sinned by not listening to it fully yet. But I'm about to 🤙🏼
folklore is such a complex album
i thought that illicit affairs was also a song about the love triangle, and how it was told from augustines perspective of how sneaking around and having an affair was really like...
I have saved a live concert of hers at Harvey Mudd college in Claremont California. It was a Songwriters concert. It is on RUclips. They won a contest to have her there!
omg i would love it if you could do this with all taylor and harry albums
love this :)
GREAT VIDEO
thank youuu, for someone who is not a native english speaker this is so helpful
This is so helpful, thank you
so glad!
great video ! :D
she's such a genius.
Please do all her albums, idk how people figure things like this out lol
Well swifties are literal investigators
Thank you, loved this video
thank you so much!
thank you !!!
Woah this video taught that I’m a (me me me me) person because I tried to connect with the album in my personal life. Also that I know next to nothing about her life.
i think that's great! taylor has always said that she wants people to connect her songs to their own experiences. that has always been her purpose
I just realized the song august is her 8th song on the album, and august is the 8th month of the year!
This album makes me feel something different
brilliant!
THANK YOU SO MUCH QUEEN YOU DID GREAT I LOVE THIS EXPLANATION
Great explanation pls do full explained video❤️❤️
Betty has always been one of my favorites from this album lyrically, probably even more than Cardigan
Great video!
Thanks!
Thank You!
maddyyy you're so iconic this video was so good
thanks queen
Thanks I appreciate your effort🥰🥰🥰😭
I love your videos! Can you do Red and 1989? Thank you.
FOLKLORE IS MY FAVOURITE ALBUM!
