- HAPPY TORTURED POETS RELEASE WEEK🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍
we are so close to hearing the new album and i wanted to post one last video before all is revealed!! today i wanted to do a deep dive into the Grief (Taylor’s Version) playlists that were posted on Apple Music and go through all the songs and lyrics that Taylor associated with each stage of grief. i think by putting these existing songs into different categories, Taylor really made us gain a new perspective on lyrics that we already know and love.
i also wanted to talk about the track lengths to see what else we can predict about the album before it comes out and also just throw in a few last predictions of what The Tortured Poets Department might have in store👀
i am SO excited and i can’t wait to share my reaction!!
I post new videos every week, so turn your notifications on so you don’t miss a single upload! thank you guys so much for your support! thank you for being here💜
xoxo

the line "when you lose things you gain things too" really made me think of "cause there were pages turned with the bridges burned, everything you lose is a step you take."
Ah one of my favorite lyrics ever :)
YES YES YES
Ur profile pic got me laughin rolling on the floor😂😂
@@NenaShelby omg i'm so happy you replied! i'm a new swiftie and you and ally have taught me so much and been so helpful
I think Taylor saw the 5 stages of grief fan theory and was like "okay that looks fun". In the description of the playlists it says that she inspired by the theory.
We give ourselves way too much credit.
I initially misheard you’re losing me as ‘my heart won’t skip anymore’, and then as ‘my heart won’t stop anymore’ and now I know it’s ‘my heart won’t start anymore’ and that was just a rollercoaster of emotions for me 😭
Being a swiftie means that our life moto is “Delulu is the solulu” 😂 oh I can’t wait for a video of you analyzing these new lyrics! 🤍✌️
I love that TTPD is white because it’s the album of her falling out of love with him ie. the opposite of rep which is black
The reason why 'Betty' is in denial playlist!!!!!
I just figured that we know Joe used to run away from Taylor when they were having issues "Running throught the hallway", etc.
So in one of his running away, he might have seen someone and then came back to Taylor saying that it was not serious(blah blah blah) which is what she might be saying through the folklore triangle and the reason why 'Betty' is in denial playlist!
This would also mean that the holes in there relationship where deep even before lockdown.
these playlists GAGGED ME so bad I'm scared and excited for this album
am i the only one immediately thinking of her pointing at the crowd and then screaming moment in the eras tour movie when reading the „the crowd goes wild at her fingertips, half moonlight, full eclipse“ lyrics??? 🤯
YES
"Half moonshine, full eclipse" She is the sun, he is the moon, he kept her from shining. She's bejeweled, and she's ready to be in the spotlight again.
Also, this seems incredibly obvious to me but nobody is talking about it: "And when I meet the band, they ask, 'do you have a man?' I could still say, 'I don't remember'" It was an on again-off again relationship, she doesn't remember because towards the end everything was muddy.
Lately i feels like i’m in a literature lesson when i hear your analysis of songs❤️it feels very professional and hearing you talking about real literature subjects during the video connecting to Taylor💪🏽keep going girl!
It also gives inspiration of what can you do with your degree and in what different directions you can take your profession through(i mean also in interesting whys like youtube)
aw thank you for saying that 🥹💖
If we think Cornelia Street in the “bargaining” list is hard to digest, imagine if Reputation songs were added to these playlists. We would die dead/rip us. 😂🖤
Crazy they weren’t. I’m still wondering. If she’ll do it.
@@coconutsciencegirl9232 maybe when they’re hers again. I hope she updates these playlists when Rep TV arrives.
I'm so obsessed with the sweatshirt 🤍
Same!!!
i'm so, so excited for the tortured poets department!!!!!! cant wait any longer!!!!!!!!!
I just got back from my first time working out at a gym, and I was listening to rep, and now I get to watch a Nena video!
So I know that everybody knows this, but I just wanted to write it down here. There's this poem, "L'albatros" by Charles Baudelaire. This is the last stanza of the poem,
"The Poet is like this prince of the clouds
Who haunts the tempest and laughs at the archer;
Exiled on the ground, in the midst of jeers,
His giant wings keep him from walking."
Exile? Archer? The Poet? Clouds like Lavender Haze? "Giant wings keep him from walking?" Anti-hero reference?...hello omg?
omg 🤯🫢🫣
Lover being on the playlist reflects HER being delusional. Lover is a love song, and if you relate to it, it doesn’t mean you’re delusional as well or that it ruins it if it was your wedding song. The delusion was in how perfect it painted her relationship to be, even though in reality, her relationship was far from healthy and there were already red flags
THE QUEEN HAS POSTED ❤️!!!
IT'S HERE😢😢😢😢
Hi Nena!!! I'm excited to see the last video before TTPD release!
How you said “I can do it with a broken heart” is like how she had to go through the breakup aftermath during the tour it might be long live 2.0 like a song for the fans thanking us for helping her through hard times. Idk lol.
For some reason this analysis and these playlists are giving me such insight into what actually happened that we didn't know about before so thanks for that!! Also about bonus tracks I'm guessing if someone uploads them as a spotify podcast or on youtube then we could probably listen to them
i am not joking when i say this but ttpd comes out on my 13th birthday!
SO LUCKY🤍🤍 happy early birthday!!🎉
Thanks Nena! You are so nice and you are so good at decoding anything Taylor related!
not me sobbing at the am I allowed to cry
So Long London written by Taylor and Aaron? May just beat tolerate it as saddest track 5. I’m terrified.
Please keep doing these lyric breakdowns!!! I am obsessed!! ❤❤
I will be claiming track 4, down bad
Omg im so excited to listen to that song!! I claim, I can fix him (no really I can)
My personal theory is that the acceptance stage will be REP TV! She is showing us the end of this story before taking us to the beginning.
Love you Nena from El Salvador happy release week hope we enjoy a new era together as happy community
I AN LITTERALLY FREAKING OUT CAUSE TTPD IS CONMING OUT TOMMOROWS TOMMOROWS TOMMORROW
No its not, right? Its april 16
😂😂😂😂 this is me. I’m actually getting so nervous about this!!!! It’s gonna be so unhinged. Im not ready!
@@Eva10395 So sorry I completely misunderstood! 😅
It’s fine
hi nena!! so excited to watch this video and for tortured poets to come out!!
I'm so excited to watch this! I love your sweater!!
the way I was just thinking “I hope Nena posts a new TTPD video soon” and I check my subscriptions and see that a new one is up 🤩 can’t wait to watch!!
🥰🫶
omg it's like a precious heart therapy. thank you Nena!
love you nena! my mom just became a swiftie and i love showing her your videos
2 dayyysss thx for the vid nena
I think 'So Long, London' might be a really intimate song and not just about Joe but more so the feeling of basically losing a home kind of
so true 🥺
@@NenaShelby We'll see ig, can't really trust blondie to go easy on us 🥲
I recently read the book Rebecca by Daphne du Maurier, the book that Taylor wrote tolerate it about, and the songwriting fits the storyline so well! I really enjoyed the book and it was so interesting to read a piece of Taylor’s inspiration!
Nena you’re are the absolute best ❤❤❤❤
Thank you for posting the chord charts of Taylor’s songs on your website! I’ve been trying to learn to sing and play at the same time and they are very helpful! Thank you again! Cheers!
Had to come back and watch this again now that the album is out. I see the playlists and her song choices with such a different perspective now! Love your videos Nena.
Happy Tortured Poets release week. This album is so much more than I ever imagined it would be. I can't wait to see your album reaction video.
Wow i never wouldd have figured out a lot of these hidden messages and meanings!! Thank you xx
I LUV YOU NENA ❤❤
Love your videos and so excited for TPD
Such cool predictions Nena ❤
When these released I was travelling and WAS SHOCKED. Super excited for Friday!!! 🤍🤍🤍📝🖇
Can’t wait for your guitar tutorials!!!!!!!
Great analysis of these playlists, Nena! I loved watching this video as prep for TTPD!! I’m so excited! 😆 I’m totally claiming track 13, “I Can Do It With A Broken Heart.” 🤍 I’m glad you are excited about that one two. I hope it exceeds our expectations! I’ll be meeting you and all our fellow Swifties at the department meeting, tonight at MIDNIGHT! 🕛
YOUR HAIR IS SOOO PRETTY!!!❤
SO EXCITED
When I heard about Joever for the first time, I thought about how Taylor was afraid of their relationship ending since the very beggining (or at least I interpreted that from her lyrics, since she expressed this fear as soon as the reputation album). And, back then I thought that this kind of paranoia about your relationship ending might take a toll on the relationship. Now, I'm thinking: she just had a very good intuition and knew that eventually Joe's private lifestyle would demand a division from her very famous lifestyle that she does love, but that she decided to go ahead with the relationship anyways because they were really passionate about each other and she wanted to see if somehow these very different priorities of the both of them would be sorted out.
And for the longest time, she denied that this issue wasn't being solved. She did try to make some sacrifices to appease him (i.e. all the work to go secretly to places, the bolting to escape paparazzi, the changes made to the way she writes, talks about and markets her songs, etc.). But, (and I don't know these people or how their relationship was, I'm talking as if they're characters from a fiction story), it seems he didn't really make a lot of concessions to the lifestyle Taylor loves so much.
To me, in the lyrics “You say you don't understand and I say I know you don't” from You're Losing Me is about her planning a tour and/or big marketing strategy, and being excited about going back into the spotlight and him being “but why would you want that? I don't understand” and being very anti-mainstream pretentious artsy boy, not realizing Taylor worked her whole life to get the notoriety she has in her career now and how important that is to her. Even years into their relationship, he still did not understand a very important side of who Taylor is. And, as she knew from the beggining, their differences led them to different paths.
YESSSSS
🤍 can’t wait for the new album. Always love your videos
when hoax played on shuffle on the day of the eclipse-“my eclipsed sun”
i love spotify
AHHHHHH
Thanks for this video 🤍
Even though we’re still in school, me and all my Swiftie besties made a whole schedule, A whole plan to stay up till midnight on Thursday

So excited for ur album release partyyy 🎊🫶☁️✨️
@T.ELEGRAMMRSNENASHELBY heyyyy I love your videosss... been here since 2021 and it makes me happy how much your channels have grown🫶
The 1.5 podcast speed : relatable ❤
I had the same question about the bonus songs, how are we going to hear that? I love your breakdowns I cannot wait to hear your take on it!
im claiming clara bow and the smallest man who ever lived! i CANT wait
I think so the bonus tracks can fit i think we should put midnights as denial
It sucks when you think you’re with your person and then they aren’t. It’s gonna be an amazing album. I can’t wait
Love this channel! Even statues crumble if they're made to wait... All's fair in love and poetry baby XD
omg love this video! i hadn’t realized the albatross could fly in the ocean for six years so that’s pretty neat. also i’m so sad the playlists are only apple music cause i can’t find them on spotify 😭
hi nena! i love this vid soo much your my favourite youtuber and i know theres a lot on for you right now with making vids for TTPD but can you PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE continue your series for guitar tutorials for taylor swifts speak now tour covers because i want to learn thise songs so badly but i can only understand your tutorials. pleaaaaase ❤❤❤❤❤❤
We want the: Reacting to The Torture Poets Departement Part 1📜!!!
Hey just heard the ttpd and im sure you did too gosh we need a lyric breakdown desperately like instantly cause i found so much "evidence" 😉which i wanna share and i wanna know what others found. 😭😭😭
Coming back to this video after the release is bringing me all the conflicting emotions. Now that we have a better insight to what she was hinting on those playlists. Did she dedicate her own songs to Ratty Healy? If yes, that’s insaaaaaane! Tay Tay was cray cray for a fortnight… 😂 Please Nena, whenever you are ready of course, we are here for your lyric analysis videos! 🤩
Nena Shelby and I swifties forever
Love your hair
Can't wait for TTPD walk-through.. Im checking everyday 😭😭
Amazing ❤
YOUR HAIR!!!!!! 😍😍😍
🥰🫶
I’m looking forward to The Tortured Poets Department this week. Happy Taylor Swift week Nena.
HIIII ILYYY!!
You asked for my predictions for TTPD… they are that it will rock your world.
Today it’s 3 more days
i think my favorite is gonna be i can do it with a broken heart and but daddy i love him. it sounds like the perfect song for me. i’m sooo exited to hear these songs. and i kinda hope it’s gonna have the melodies of the red album, but in the end it’s probably gonna be something like midnights or 1989 even 😂. omg i can’t decide. we will see 👀
Omg guys there’s a music video coming out for ttpd AAHH
Am I Allowed to Cry? Is also my favorite of the playlists! They of course are all amazing but that one stands out. I actually, have a two different options of songs that showed the rocks of Joe and Taylor’s relationship. First being Dancing With Our Hands Tied, the uncertainty of the whole relationship seemed very telling to me. Second being Cruel Summer one of the first songs that talks about (what I consider) The Inciting Incident that she thought “working” through meant they’d be together forever, but they probably didn’t ever really work through she just gave in to whatever facade Joe was putting up.
Wait I just realized you dyed your hair 😭
I pressed on this video 🎶 faster than you could say sabotage!🎶
❤❤❤
I love the cabinets! Are they a reference to “soon you’ll get better”? When she says “Ill paint the kitchen neon”
2 more days yall!!!!
Who’s going to stay up till 3 am listening to Taylor swift??
👇
I think my fav songs will be Loml and Florida!!!
This is really interesting. I don't have apple music so haven't seen these. I noticed she didn't include any songs from Reputation or Debut, I guess because the re-records haven't been released yet. Also, just to note, I noticed the order of each playlist is by most recent album first with the songs as the appear on the album in that order.
Having to pause this video after Taylor posted the timeline for Tortured Poets 😭
AS U SHOULD
The Bolter is also a book by Frances Osborne about a woman named Idina Sackville the woman who scandalized the 1920s kinda the same aesthetic
🤯🤯
I would love to know what Reputation songs would have been on these playlists!!! Probably none because that's when she really loved him right???
I cant wait to wake up and be like siri play ttpd 😂😊
My prediction is that this album is going to be the most iconic thing we have ever heard and that it's going to have a new sound we haven't heard from her before- like Midnights 2.0 with like a darker sound. I also think the title track is going to be my fave. And lasty I think we are really not going to be ok after this lmao.
ok i have something to say: sign of the times by harry is 5:40 seconds. if you guys are larries you would know that harry wore a shirt that had but daddy i love him on it. so is she gonna release a song about larry or just harry in general? i know this relationship was a while ago and we already have like style and is it over now but i mean still...
Can u make a video tutorial on “Me!“, this town, and dusk till dawn i love u so much ur the reason i learned guitar and a swiftie luv u❤❤✨
FINALLY
As a poet, I kind of think saying "tortured poets" is a bit redundant. WE'RE ALL TORTURED, I say in my angstiest voice ever! 😫 . . . 😉 Actually, that's not true. The poets who write limericks are probably super happy all the time! 😊 Bottom line, I hope this album leads people to appreciate what I and my fellow poets do. And whilst I'm not the biggest Taylor Swift fan, I guess I can thank her for that.
I've been wanting to write poetry and songs but I don't know how to start or get inspiration from, any suggestions?
The Bargaining Playlist was my favoritest too! The Great War & Cornelia Street = cracks in the Lavender Haze. TTPD is gearing up to be Thee Breakup Album of All Breakup Albums. 🤍
THE QUEENS BACK❤
Its interesting u brought up that albatross can spend up to 6 yrs at sea without touching the land.. Means it can only be seen once awhile..& Taylor's been living in isolation with Joe for 6 yrs.. Its insane to think someone like her who entire life live for ppl to cheer/clap for her can live like that for THAT LONG..with love of her life or not.
Coincidence?? Definately NO. She gonna hang Joe dry on this. BTR kind of vibe. Or about a sense of loosing herself or living in delusional life for that whole period..which gonna tear us apart..👀👀👀
