Hey! We just posted a reaction to Taylor Swift "Look What You Made Me Do" bit.ly/todpatroen
Oh shit, will this come up on the channel?
Champagne Problems is probably one of her best songs ever…it’s from her album Evermore which is the sister album to Folklore, which is where Cardigan is from. You guys should totally check it out when you get a chance. Love your videos by the way!
YES!
YESSS!!
YES PLS.
Yesss
Yes, please
Taylor always had these deep and meaningful songs. it's just that she always picked the poppy songs to be the singles that everyone hears everywhere because that creates the most talk. but her deep cuts are always great. you should really check out her albums folklore and evermore. they are great.
State of Grace, beautiful eyes, on the outside, invisible, ours, I almost do, back to December to name a few
Oh Good 😅

Here's the thing with Taylor. She is very versatile and she is an album artist. She tends to pick the more pop / radio friendly songs as single. 20% is straight fun pop and everything else is more lyrics driven
🌟btw "cardigan" "augest" "betty" These three songs from her album folklore explore a love triangle from all three people’s perspectives at different times in their lives.her talent just blows my mind 🔥
This song is from her album Folklore. She released it last year and she wrote all the songs herself during quarantine. Some songs from that album, including Cardigan, are made up stories. She was inspired by movies, books and some other things that made her create stories that later became songs. Some of them are actually about personal stuff she went through, like My Tears Ricochet (a personal favorite)
she is one of the best songwriters of this generation you guys should def check out more of her songs like "exile" "no body no crime" "champagne problems" i love these songs.btw "willow" music video is the continuation of this mv from the sister album of folklore called evermore(which she directed both of them).she released these albums 6 months apart.really great and well written albums.what a piece of art💫
This song has many layers. It’s about both her music career/dedicated to her fans. But it’s also part of a trilogy off this album Cardigan, August, Betty and Cardigan is Betty’s POV
You got it right in the beginning her opening line is a call back to her previous records. Giving me your weekends is fans choosing to go to her shows. Playing hide and seek is the constant “easter egg hunt” fans play - figuring out her secret messages.
Honestly, Taylor's always been this deep, on every one of her albums there are songs this deep, but as she matures she's definitely honing her talent. She's amazingly talented.
Talented..? More like a savant...I mean she wrote All too well at what 19 yrs old....Not much else needs to be said....
The lyrics in this song are just stunning I love it all but
" leaving like a father running like water"
Has to be my favourite, it's just such beautiful lyricism
My favorite is “you drew stars around my scars, and now I’m bleeding”
In 6:05 they mention the chair where you keep music sheets, and I just realized, what if Taylor used that as a representation for her old masters? 🤔 it makes sense?
yyyes
This is from last years album folklore (there's a sister album called Evermore she released few months after folklore) most of the songs aren't really about her it's about others. On this album she has 3 songs that are about different point of views from 3 people in a love triangle. Cardigan, August & Betty are the songs
On November 12 she's releasing her album Red (Taylor's Version) you should react to All Too Well 10 minute version. A lot of fans say All Too Well is her best written song because of the story it tells. She hasn't released the 10 minute version before only the 5 & half minute version.
Also as a side night, Rolling Stones recently put out an article listing All Too Well as her best song in her discography.
Taylor knows no limits. He is constantly growing and amazes us. That is her unique weapon and her greatest strength. Composing and writing lyrics, especially, I think Taylor has a natural ability to write. It's amazing. 'How did you come up with such a word?' 'Do you even use such a word?!' It's so beautiful. But now to the supervisory area, wow, she keeps making me look forward to it.👏👏
You should NOT be surprised. As a musician myself (rock guitarist in my mid 40s) I can tell you thatTaylor Swift is a fantastic musician and one of the best songwriters of all time. NOT because of her lyricism (as many say here) but because of her sense of melody and harmony. You should listen to her music BEFORE the 1989 album (which contained Shake It Off). Also, Shake It Off is atypical of the 1989 album, which is a Masterpiece. I implore you to listen to Story Of Us, Enchanted, State Of Grace, Red, Trouble, Wildest Dreams, How You Get The Girl, Getaway Car, Me, Lover, Christmas Tree Farm and Cardigan to get an impression of her melodic genius and versatility. Also listen to the City of Lover live show in Paris (on CZcams) and watch the three Acoustic numbers she plays (on guitar and piano). She is a class act.
She is well known as a POP ARTIST, And her singles , But actually if you dive deep in her discography you will know that she has always been an excellent songwriter. She started as a cluntry artist then ventured into pop which catapulted her into success. But now she's changed genres once again.
She is definitely an Album artist hopefully you will listen to her albums :)
Folklore and Evermore are good way to start
Loved the fact this video was released the same day Carole King was introduced into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, which, ironically was inducted by Taylor herself and you both mentioned the impact Carole had while listening to his lovely track.
So interesting to see you two react to her song!! "Champagne Problems", "Marjorie", "It's time to go", and "My tears ricochet" are also great, great songs with such deep meaning but various possible interpretations!
Ever since Taylor’s Reputation album, she has chosen some of the weaker songs to promote as singles which is unfortunate bc people then think the whole album sounds like that. Which is why I feel like ppl underestimate her talent even tho she has always been an amazing writer. Even when looking back at her first album which she wrote in her early teens, you can see her skills. I’m glad people have started to appreciate her as a singer and lyricist more. Truly best songwriter of this generation.
You should listen the Folklore album. It’s amazing. This is one song that’s part of a trilogy. It’s Betty, August and Cardigan. All the songs are on the Folklore album. Maybe you should listen to those next? Also, Taylor does concept albums so it’s best to listen to one album at a time.
Nice you guys! I’m new to Taylor’s music, I’m in my 50’s and I kinda missed the Taylor craze. But during pandemic, with this album, I set out to learn about her music, why she was so popular. I found she really is a 5-star songwriter. I just never knew. The critics seemed to know but I had never listened to an album of hers before. The past 1 year I have now listened to her entire catalog and have been blown away. Folklore and evermore are just outstanding. If you guys would h be enough for something a bit longer, the Long Pond Studio Sessions is the album folklore but she discusses each song and her songwriting, and because pandemic the album was put together without anyone ever being in the same room, and on some cases having never met before. This documentary on Disney plus, which she directed, is the first time the 3 main collaborators were ever in the same room and they play the album acoustic. It’s very nice. I think you’d like it and see Taylor in a new way other than Shake it Off.
If you are not ready for that, Champagne Problems and My Tears Ricochet, and I think you’d like the lyric video to Marjorie, about her grandmother and the lyric video has gone movies with her grandmother and Taylor, it’s a very touching song especially with the video.
Taylor Swift is one of the best storytellers ever. Her lyrics are mind-blowing,
Folklore was written during quarantine and she had just wanted to make up stories and write music and thats exactly what she did.
Great reaction! The music video for song 'Willow' picks straight up from this video so you should definitely check that out next! They are connected!
If you liked this video, definitely check out the video for “Willow” off the next album, Evermore. It literally starts with the last shot from this one and picks up where it left off to finish the story.
I love this song and I loved your reaction! You should consider listening to "Betty" or "August" which all follow the same storyline of this song!
This song is about her listeners and fans always coming back to her and being the reason why she keeps making music. "I felt like I was an old cardigan under someone's bed" being that the music industry and celebrity drama causing the public to discard her and defame her (the kim/kanye drama) then when she released new music "you put me on and said I was your favorite" being the listeners. Another good example of this metaphor is seen in Mirrorball where its about how she is still trying her best to give a show to her fans during the pandemmie.
YOU NEED TO REACT TO “tolerate it” BY TAYLOR ITS AMAZING
I love that you guys reacted to this with an open mind. I hope you listen to more of Folklore and Evermore for yourselves, and if you feel like it react to them and share them.
React to the folklore album, is a masterpiece
Wow I loved that you pointed out the piano bench thing cause I had no idea! This whole album has this vibe to it you guys would love it.
It’s like the forest scene highlights the beautiful shiny parts of her career and then the ocean scene has been the horrible, media slamming her, haters downfall. But music has always saved her. She needs it.
I thought maybe she goes into her bench that has the music and then she’s drowning because it was sold. Scooby Doo
I loved this interpretation as well because I had no idea that bench could mean music
Loved the reaction. Taylor's music is definitely worth diving into. I would recommend August or Exile as the next songs.
You must do the whole Folklore and Evermore album! Cowboy like me, Champagne Problems, Ivy, Happiness, or Peace would be a great start!
I never thought about it being about her music but now I'm convinced especially because it's the 1st song of her venture into this folky style. to me, it reflects her journey away from the country but ultimately kinda coming back to it with folk. this whole idea of this old cardigan being her roots in music. the playing hide and seek and giving me your weekends being her going back to her country in only small portions throughout her career like doing one of her older songs on her tours. then the part with the leaving like a father running like water being her trying to leave her older music behind. then all those lyrics about lingering like a tattoo kiss
, haunting all of my what-ifs, smoke would hang around this long being about this possible desire to go back to her roots pulling at her for a long time. then finally coming back to her musical roots with her two sister albums. I think it makes the perfect opener for this era.
Her pop singles are more chart based or radio friendly but her albums (even the pop ones) are actually amazing!!
Thank you for doing a Taylor song and having such a open mind! Great reaction video!
Glad you enjoyed it Sarah! Thanks for watching!
Taylor is such a versatile artist. She came from country and then switch to Pop and now she tried alrernative, folk music.
There are 3 songs - August, Betty and Cardigan from her 8th studio album "Folklore"....Taylor has written these songs from the perspective of people who were in a love triangle.
Cardigan is from the perspective of Betty.
Betty is from the perspective of James.
August is from the perspective of the other girl who James had a summer fling with.
Also the video of the single "Willow" from her 9th Studio album "Evermore" is the continuation of this video. It isn't part of the love triangle but the storyline of the video is continued in that.
I came for Taylor and stayed for two old dudes. More Taylor!!!
You interpreted this song very well and this was from the "Forest" album that you mentioned , Folklore . She also directed this video which shows how artistic and talented she is. Champagne Problem from the sister album Evermore is highly recommended, please.
I enjoying your reaction so much! Your opinion for the scenes and those metaphors is everything! Please do more Taylor reaction (especially red, folklore, evermore album) it’s incredible! Can’t wait! 🤩
This was a great reaction - loved your perspective!
Thanks Chelsea! Glad you enjoyed!
Wow you mentioned carole King and tonight she performed one of her songs !!
and that song was "will you still love me tomorrow" from that same album you put a picture of
I love how you guys intetpret every scene, very insightful
Thanks Chloe! Appreciate you watching and commenting!
My tears ricochet is the one about her „stolen“ records. 😊 very powerful 💪🏼
I just got recommended this channel, this was a great video, you guys got a new sub.
Taylor Swift a very hardcore fandon is big part because her music is mostly lyric driven, and her melodies/bridges are some of the best of all time, so we really connect with her.
She has had some amazing deep lyrics even before 1989 (the album with Shake It Off) but her last 2 albums Folklore and Evermore were a turn to a more indie genre.
If I had to suggest some of her best songs to people that don't know much of her music I would probably even recommend some live stuff simply because she tends to be better live than in her albums, so:
-Blank Space (from 1989) live in the Grammy Museum
-Tolerate It (from Evermore)
-Don't Blame Me (from Reputation) live in the Reputation Tour.
-Death By a Thousand Cuts live from Paris
-Illicit Affairs (from Folklore).
Go for the All Too Well 10 min version that just came out. Arguably her best song ever. Try it with the short film too!
definitely listen to more of her stuff!! most of the time the singles she releases and the songs that get popular aren’t even the best in the album. she’s got so many layers to her music❤️
hell yeah i love Taylor i'm so happy you guys reacted to this
You two just made me so happy. The girl has indeed grown up. Young Taylor was always undoubtedly great but being 15 years older than her, it took her latest two albums to win me over completely. You posting up Joni and Carole truly warmed my heart because Taylor is also a serious force to be reckoned with and her stuff will 100% pass the test of time. She's a lyrical genius.
Omg this reaction was such a serotonin in a new level. But yes the whole forest music you guys were referring to is Indie Music. ❤️❤️❤️ Thank you for this reaction. She has two indie albums. Folklore that has the song Cardigan and Evermore ❤️✨
What I would do to watch you guys go through folklore and evermore track by track.
Thanks Sarah. We’ve discussed doing a whole album at some point so we’ll see what happens. Thanks for watching!
Stop these guys are so sweet 😭 I wanna hang out with them!!!
Would love to see y’all react to the other two songs that are part of the trilogy (august & betty).
Also love her music and I definitely agree with everyone about her choosing more pop/radio friendly songs as singles but having absolutely amazing songs on her album. I strongly recommend Don’t Blame Me from her Reputation album it is hands down one of my favorite Tswift songs ever!!!
Taylor recently performed at Carole King's inauguration ceremony into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame!
This was such a nice reaction, can't wait for another one so.. More Taylor Swift please!!! (My songs suggestions are champagne problems, seven and the last great American dynasty)
Wildest dreams! You should react to that song.. 🤍✨
Awesome video, if your wanting the continuation of that music video you just saw before reacting to her other music, please react to her music video "Willow". It starts off directly where the Cardigan video ends! Its also another really great song. Her 2 newest albums called "Folklore" and "Evermore" are very much like this, striped back, masterful lyrics and storytelling, and her voice is absolutely amazing. You guys will honestly enjoy it, and the Swifties will too! lol
Exile is one of my favorite songs from her, from the folklore album
I love this song so much its insane
Please do more Taylor reaction!! I promise you guys won't regret if you dive right into her deepest songs and leave the pop-y ones for later on... Highly recommend the folklore + evermore album experiences (though i love all of them). As some said, she usually picks tracks that are catchy and commercial and radio friendly to be her singles, and that's why ppl tend to underestimate her talent. She's truly a genius at storytelling and her lyricism is impactful on most of her not-so-popular/not bop-y tracks
Taylor swift is amazing! PLEASE react to more Ariana grande, some of my favourite songs of hers are-
-Pov
-thank you next
-breathin
-goodnight and go
-everytime
-stuck with you
-god is a women
Also it would be really cool if you would react to
-Ariana grande best swt live vocals
-Best live vocals
Taylor just dropped a (Taylor’s version) of her album Red. Should definitely give you a lot to react to. Should also listen to the rest of her Music.
Ya'll did pretty good on figuring some of it out. Cardigan, August, and Betty are a teenage love triangle on this album, Cardigan is Betty's point of view, August is the other girl and Betty is from James's point of view. The names James, Inez (in the song Betty), and Betty are the names of Ryan Renolds 3 daughters, Betty (Ryan is friends with Betty White) was born last fall but they kept her name a secret, Taylor is friends with Ryan and his wife Blake Lively (model) and this is the way to let the world know their 3rd daughter's name. Taylor also used James's voice saying gorgeous at the beginning of her song Gorgeous from her Reputation Album, Apparently, Ryan and Blake had been visiting Taylor and she played the song for them and their daughter kept repeating the word gorgeous, Taylor thought it was cute and asked them if she could use James's voice. Also, Ryan had a cameo in Taylor's MV You Need To Clam Down from her Lover Album. Taylor's last 2 albums were done during the pandemic and on top of that she is re-recording her first 6 albums, her music was sold out from under her, she had wanted to own the rights but Big Machine, Scott Brochetta said she would have to record one new album to get back one old one, she walked away. Then Scott sold them to Scooter Braun for $300 million dollars (he has since sold them to someone else), so Taylor is re-recording them and they are called Taylor's Version, and she has added the vault songs that didn't make it on those albums. She already has dropped Fearless, and come Nov 12th I believe, her album Red Taylor's Version is dropping. On her new albums "folklore" and "evermore" there are references in some of the songs about previous events in her life, but a lot of the songs are just stories. Notice I did not capitalize folklore and evermore, that is because Taylor did that intentionally. One more tidbit, she has been dating a British actor for a few years now, Joe Alwyn (all win), he is referenced in her songs, and in evermore, he had a part in creating some of the songs. If you decide to delve into these 2 masterpieces, start with folklore at the beginning, and then evermore (willow has a MV).
Need some Harry styles!! Falling, Adore You, sign of the times, & lights up are some of my favs❤️
taylor reminds me so much of joni! have never heard anyone else make the comparison
she put out like 30+ folk-alt songs in 2020 u should definitely check them out. the ones I would recommend the most are my tears ricochet (this is about her situation with her old record label manager who was like family but went and sold her music behind her back), cowboy like me, peace, and champagne problems
Listen to No Body No Crime, it's *chef's kiss *
You guys should check out willow. It starts with the last shot from this one and picks up where it left off to finish the story
Haha please more!!! “This is me trying” would be a nice try!!
More Taylor please!
Taylor recorded and released this album during the pandemic.
Folklore and Evermore.
Surprised you don’t have more TS reaction videos.
Please react to Champagne Problems by Taylor Swift! You guys would enjoy with it. Its a masterpiece
please react to RED (Taylor's Version) and the All too well 10 minutes version
I agree with everyone!! You should react to Betty and August after this!! Taylor is a STORYTELLING MASTER. The layers and personal details she puts into her music, production, background, arrangements, visuals, and marketing? She is a genius. A quiet genius.
I would love to see you two react to This is Me Trying from Taylor! :)
Please react to "All too well" by Taylor Swift! The 10- minute version, the film!
omg you guys react to folklore
The whole album is that greate!
All too well (Taylor's version) is the best break up song ever written. I said it.
You guys should listen to Illicit affairs, champagne problems, august, exile and her other indie songs, they are amazing!
all too well!!!!!!!
You guys called it! She actually loves Carole King and Joni Mitchell, You should listen to the whole Folklore album. This song is from that album she put out last year. You guys rock!
taylor does multiple genres. the poppy stuff is just one of them.
Also, now I can't unsee the Narnia parallel 😂
I'D LOVE TO SEE YOUR REACTION TO HER ALBUMS "FOLKLORE" 🍃AND "EVERMORE" 🍂
Taylor actually knows Joni, and sang at her induction to the rock and roll hall of fame!! She really is a classic artist and credits both of them as influences. Joni calls her a musical daughter! It's the best 👌
Even years ago she had great music but those songs are not the ones you hear on the radio. She is a lyrical genius and has been since she was 12 or 13. She has also written many songs for other artists that became hits. Check out this live performance (& playing piano) of "All Too Well" at the 2014 Grammys: czcams.com/video/XB7noMnaGO8/video.html I'm an "old lady" who's been loving you old dudes reactions, and I just subscribed!
NEED MORE TAYLOR REACTION PLS I BEG U 😭😭
LOVED THE REACTION PLEASE REACT TO EXILE BY TAYLOR SWIFT
React to Logic 1-800 please! Super powerful video!
Please react to more Taylor Swift! My personal favorites are Tis’ the Damn Season & Coney Island!
you guys should def check her album “folklore” I think you’ll like it
You guys pick any song from her latest 2 albums folklore and evermore. You'll love it.
React to Willow next please. Soon. Lol.
i would love for you guys to react to the singer aurora!!
now im waiting for evermore and folklore reaction
Cardigan is from her 8th album folklore. Just try to check it and also its sister album evermore.
Btw Carole king is one of taylor major influences in songwriting.
I don't know if you will react to whole album or not.. regardless I'm excited for it. All of the songs are similar to this song in this album..they are similar but not same..and lyricism is masterpiece.
song of the year.
Also. Good catch on music saving her. This song is actually rumored to be a love song to her fans.... if you think of the context of the media shit storm she went through and the amount of 1st album fans who turned on her due to it. She came back with Reputation and she was bigger than ever. "And when I felt like I was an old cardigan.." when she thought everyone abandoned her "you put me on and said I was your favorite" she sold out an all stadium tour with Rep... she also says, "I knew you'd come back to me" because even when people didn't "like" her, you still heard her music everywhere and like you said, how can you not enjoy a fun pop song like shake it off? Literally. A genius. She is thanking us as fans for always loving her. ❤️
Taylor swift is the music industry
