    Taylor is a genius songwriter....
    In August at 2:47 lyrics are "Remember when I pulled up and said get in the car."
    In Betty at 2:47 lyrics are "She said James get in let's drive."
    In Cardigan at 3:13 lyrics are "And you'd be standing on my front porch light."
    In Betty at 3:13 lyrics are "Betty I'm here on your doorstep."
    There are many more parallels, I'm just not able to mention it here.... But it's mind blowing how she has weaved the story and the lyrics ❤

      People on twitter legit just dont bother to check her out after seeing her success and say "she's so mediocre that white girls relate to it" like HOW does that make sense I'm not even a girl her fanbase has become massively diverse, or it would never reach the popularity levels she has now.

      1. I wish that he would have blown his nose off camera before this reaction.
      2. He bopped his head completely off beat making it very difficult to enjoy
      3. He kept speaking over the song and saying “this is awesome”. There are other words to use in the English language to refer to Taylor’s music.
      Idk. I found it all too much to truly enjoy their reactions due to the behaviors mentioned above. I watched another reaction and he was sniffing throughout that entire video, too. Actually he was doing everything he did in this reaction video. I just can’t continue to watch. For me, it’s too distracting and unprofessional to continue to sniffle on a video that he’s making for people to watch. We tell our children “go get a tissue and blow your nose”. This grown man doesn’t care or understand how it sounds to us? As he’s yelling over the music “this is awesome!” 🙄🙈🤨

  • @vishaloinam4098
    @vishaloinam4098 Před rokem +153

    Fun fact-
    In cardigan, the lyrics are filled with small little details about James in every verse and chorus. Signifying how Betty knew so much about James. But compared that to August, the chorus and lyrics are repetitive, like just meeting behind the mall, cancelling plans incase he calls. Just showing how litte they knew about each other cause it was just a 'summer thing'...

    Joe is her boyfriend and wrote with Taylor some songs in this album using the name of "William Bovery" for the credits, even though - as she mentioned in the talk about the writing of "Betty" - he participed in the writing and was singing the chorus of the song while playing the piano in their house, he didn't sing for the record itself. He's an actor and they seem to have an amazing relationship.
    Ps.: I love the reactions of Taylor's music, especially of this album, "Folklore" is probably my favorite album of hers, I hope you guys can continue!

  • @michelle6337
    @michelle6337 Před rokem +53

    I really love the growth Taylor shows with August. There is a song from Speak Now called Better than Revenge that is basically a diss track to the girl who "stole" Taylor's boyfriend. To be fair, Taylor was still a teenager when she wrote it and teenager's have very little life experience with handling that kind of situation. As she's grown older Taylor has expressed regret for that song, and made comments about how another girl can't steal your boyfriend unless he wants to be stolen. I just really love seeing how Taylor has grown as a person and reflected on that type of situation with more maturity.

    The names James, Inez (the name that spread gossip), and Betty are actually the names of Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively's 3 daughters, James is the firstborn, Inez 2nd, and then when Betty was born Ryan and Blake did not release her name to the public. Taylor is friends with Ryan and Blake. This song was how people found out that their daughter's name was Betty. Ryan and Blake just had their 4th baby earlier this month and they have yet to say if it is a girl or boy and have not given out the baby's name.

    SOOOOO
    To clear up the confusion, Joe Alwyn, her boyfriend, wrote the song with her, but he didn't sing on the song. She sang all 3 songs, but from different perspectives. Joe wrote the song under the pseudonym William Bowery. William is his grandfather's name, who was a composer, and Bowery is Joe's favorite street in New York. He wrote it under a pseudonym as both Taylor and Joe wanted us to listen to the song and like it for what it is, without paying attention to the fact that they wrote it together, cus then it would have become more than just music, and we would've started speculating and the song itself would lose meaning.
    The cross-references in the three songs are absolutely mind-blowing!
    In Cardigan, which is from Betty's perspective she sings - "High heels on cobblestones", and then in Betty, which is from James' perspective she sings- "I was walking home on broken cobblestones"
    which shows that Betty knew exactly what happened, and how it went down between James and Augustine.
    In Cardigan, she sings- "And you'd be standin' in my front porch light" while in Betty she sings-" Will you kiss me on the porch" showing that James did come back to Betty and they met on the porch. We get information about this incident in both Betty and Cardigan, finding out the full story of both sides, and how the thing went down.
    In Cardigan she sings "To kiss in cars" while again in Betty she sings, "Kissin' in my car again"
    In Cardigan she sings, "Drunk under a streetlight" while in Betty she sings, "Stopped at a streetlight"
    Also, she even name-drops Cardigan!
    In August, which is from Augustine's perspective, she sings, "Remember when I pulled up and said, "Get in the car"" while in Betty, which is from James's perspective she sings, "Just thinking of you when she pulled up" and "She said "James, get in, let's drive"" which shows the two different aspects of what happened when James and Augustine got together briefly.
    Also, in August she sings, "So much for summer love and saying "us"
    'Cause you weren't mine to lose" and in Betty James says, "Slept next to her, but
    I dreamt of you all summer long" proving Augustine right in the fact that he never loved herbut just with her for a Summer, in which he was always thinking about Betty. He was never Augustine's.
    Betty also confirms that she knew about this scandal when she sings, "Chase two girls, lose the one" because James finally comes back to her, and she knows that she was 'the one' for him, and he was hers.
    Also in Betty James says, "it was just a summer thing" and Betty confirmed that she knew that James would tire of Augustine and would start to want Betty by singing, "I knew you'd miss me once the thrill expired" (thrill of being with Augustine)
    This just shows how intricate Taylor is with her writings, and what an absolute genius she is!
    This was all that I could find, if anyone else finds anything new, pls do let me know!

    The two people with her are writers and producers Aaron Dessner and Jack Antonoff. When she refers to “Joe” singing the fully formed chorus of Betty, she’s talking about her long term boyfriend Joe Alwyn, who Taylor changed to the pseudonym of William Bowery in the song credits.

    Joe Alwyn (the one she talked about who was singing the chorus of Betty) is her boyfriend of 6 years now.... And this is the first song they wrote together... And to get an honest reaction from the audience about the song (and not just because Taylor had written it with Joe), Joe used the pseudonym "William Bowery" here.... Now they've written even more songs together... Joe co-wrote many other songs on Folklore including Exile...

Also in the film is Aaron Dessner (music producer, guitarist for The National, and songwriter/musician in Big Red Machine) She was talking about Joe Alwyn making up & singing the chorus in their home. He is a professional actor; British, lives in London, and her boyfriend of about 6 years. On folklore, he wrote parts of Exile, and Betty; on Evermore, he worked on Champagne Problems, Coney Island, and Evermore.

In the album version, that part which caught your attention is played with a violin. & if you look that up (ill come back with a link in a min...i will babble forever trying to exolain something that you can easily watch instead lol).
    Also, I always fahreaking cry while watching August, the Long Pond Version...because when Jack Antonoff goes off with the guitar at the second bridge...it's just so beautiful to see how much this song moves him. Always magical to see someone so good at their craft. Then put three of them together: it hurts so good.

    Idk. I found it all too distracting to truly enjoy their reactions due to the behaviors mentioned above. I watched another reaction to see if this video was a fluke however he was sniffing throughout that entire video, too. Actually, tbh, he was doing everything that he did in this reaction video. I just can’t continue to watch. For me, it’s too distracting and it’s unprofessional to continue to sniffle on a video that he’s making for people to enjoy watching. We tell our little children “go get a tissue and blow your nose”. This grown man doesn’t care or understand how it sounds to us? As he’s repeatedly yelling over the music “this is AWESOME!” So you’ve said, and said and said. Find another word to express yourself and please try to expand your vocabulary. 🙏🏻🙄🙈🤨
