#JacobRestituto - Zábava
This song is written about The Eras tour and how she’s able to go out and put on a show while being heartbroken. The background commotion is what she’s hearing in her in-ears while on stage 😊
“I’m so depressed I act like it’s my birthday everyday”
oh wow
@@JacobRestitutoAnd I'm not sure you caught the counting either. The 1, 2, 3, 4....the metronome. People were making Tik Toks about it last year to her on stage early on in the Eras Tour. I think that was, the counting, a nod to all those Tik Toks.
@@JacobRestituto Yes - "lights, camera, bitch smile" is what she's saying to herself when she goes on, because she's broken hearted and crying all the time up until then.
I took it as the internal dialogue of getting out to perform every night.
This song…I love that you don’t need to read into the lyrics, the meaning is crystal clear. I love that this song is a bop but if you listen/read the lyrics it’s so sad. Her heart was shattered and she still had to go out night after night and perform. Putting on a mask and getting the job done.
The lyric video to this song is perfect.
Agreed. To get the full picture, the lyric video is where’s it’s at.
I think the depressed birthday line has a couple of layers.
1. Hiding a depressive state by being outwardly over the top happy and excitable (think Robin Williams)
2. She mentions alcohol, drinking too much many many times throughout the album so possibly covering up her depression by acting like its her birthday drinking, partying every night
I wonder if her reference to glitter is reference to Britney Spears she’s so lucky when she sprinkles glitter in music video!!!
It's a perfect transition- she went straight from the break-up into the Era's tour. The lyric you were asking about- "I'm so depressed I act like it's my birthday....." I think refers to her trying to act cheerful despite being so depressed, so no one knows the extent to which she was hurting. All the ambient noise you were hearing was rehearsal for Era's, and the voice you heard speaking was what she hears in her in-ears during the live show. I love this album. I find this song to be quite sad, even though it is structured as very upbeat.--SDK
I took the line about her birthday as a reference to “All Too Well” and how she was so depressed on her 21st birthday because her boyfriend never bothered to show up. That’s why “22!” was such an upbeat song because she was redoing her birthday memories from the awful time of the prior year. It was a huge and happy party/video/vibe.
She acts even happier because a birthday is a special day. Also she was going through a break up of a 6 year relationship when ERAS tour started in Florida.
She’s always a singer songwriter no matter what type of music it is
I’ve been really enjoying your reactions and I like that you focus on the production more. I feel so many people focus too much on Taylor the person and miss out on the actual art she makes. Because she’s so good at her craft. That’s why it frustrates me when people criticize her music then admit they have never listened to it because they read too much into what the media says about her.
I agree - yes
i like that you focus on production. you’re right, there are many channels that get deep into the lyrics and the lore, and i love watching those too, but i know very little about music production so it’s fun to learn something different
During her song 22 at the eras tour she literally acts like it's her birthday.
The upbeat synth works perfectly for this song. It's cheerful and makes you smile until you hear the lyrics. Exactly the symbolism of the story.
To me this song is not only how she feels she has to perform at top level for her fans regardless and also how her fans expect more and more all the time!
I think of Miss Americana when she said when she was younger that she lived and felt identity and success based on the reaction of the crowd.
It must be exhausting to always be on point in every way.
I love your focus on music! I feel like we need this side of the discussion. There is a lot focus on lyrics but the production of these songs are 100% worthy of analysis.
I saw the Eras tour in my hometown Stockholm on 18th May, and THIS VERSION LIVE IS INSANE! Especially when she teases the beginning by having a jazz-instrumental of it. You have to see the LIVE version, it is so much better!
You gotta be into the Taylor swift “lore” to fully appreciate this song I think. I think it’s one of the best on the album because it captures such a specific feeling of attending the eras tour but giving us her perspective of faking it through because of the heartbreak she was experiencing over the summer. The song is perfection.
Hi Jacob - "I'm so depressed so I act as if it's my birthday everyday" showcases her light sarcasm. I love that side of her.❤
The music goes with the lyrics for example you didnt know why it changed up after loml. I think it shows a beautiful sad lyrical and musical vibe then changes to happy 80's vibe because that is how her life was at the time. Inside feeling so many feelings hitting her brain and heart along with extreme saddness/depression loss of her soul but then has to go on stage and entertain and bury her emotions and the song represents. So happy type beat and her voice but the lyrics were sad and desperate. This album is so much deeper than any others I have listened to. The more you listen the more you love it and appreciate the brillance. The lyrics/poems are the star on this album on purpose I think. ♡♡
I really like your detailed explanations. It has helped me hear the layers you always talk about. ❤
This is clips from her concert movie on Disney+.
I wrote my comment while you were talking in the beginning before you started the song. I thought you were going to watch the video.
I didnt realiez there was a video my bad!
@@JacobRestituto Probably a good thing that you reacted to this first, given your interest in production. The lyrics video makes her words hit harder - she’s basically describing everything she’s feeling as you’re watching it happen. It’s quite an insight.
The video itself shows how intense these concerts are, the sheer size of them and the spectacle she puts on. Full on performing for three hours or more, then does it again the next night. Amazing.
Love your reactions to ttpd! Sayville, NY here, pretty cool coming across your channel through TS of a fellow LI’er!
I don’t know if anyone has mentioned it but Taylor likes to follow up her most heart wrenching songs with bops. You can see this on some of her albums. For example on Midnights “Bigger than the whole sky” is followed up by “Paris.
I love this song!
Great review, been gone a bit but I’m back Thanks Jacob!
as a life long swiftie, this song hurts so much. like she was suffering so much when we were all so excited. it hurts me
Previous song. love of my life in the beginning changes to loss of my life in the end.
She never says love of my life tho. It's "You told me I was the love of *your life." But yes, it chg's to "your the loss of my life" at the end.
It’s weird people don’t get acting it’s her birthday is to keep from falling into a pit of despair by using a day that supposed to be happy and exciting to make you get up and function - the whole fake it til you make it vibe
This song is like her inner monologue when she's performing on tour while also dealing with emotional turmoil lol. She's performing through the pain!
I hate my birthday, it´s one of the most depressing days of the year. Not for the aging by it self, but because, it remembers me, that i didn´t have any friends to celebrate. For me it is this...
I love your reactions. You should check out her lyric video because it has footage of her Eras tour. As others have said, this is about her performing with a broken heart.
Thabks for another video. I like that you talk about the production as i focus on lyrics myself and its nice to hear insight onbthe production. It teaches me to appreciate the mysic in a different way.
I think the lyric "i act like its my birthday everyday" is her pretending shes happy just to put a brave face on and fake happeness day to day (at her eras tour).
I think this poppy production is neant to be over the top happy on purpose. Because thats what the song is about, pretending and faking happeness to cover up a broken heart. The ivertop oroduction is so happy it sounds fake happy, if that makes sence.
Thanks again fir the content. Suoer interesting and educational!
She is hiding her depression by acting as happy as if it was her birthday everyday.
If you take it literal .. she was so depressed but jumping and acting like it was her birthday when she was performing.
I don't know too many Swifties that are also Nine Inch Nails fans, but this song reminds me of "Everything" and "Less Than". Highly suggest everyone listen to those tracks.
Agree!
It's a track 13, which are usually personable to Taylor directly. The fact that it follows loml correlates to breaking up from a 6yr relationship and immediately going on tour and performing. I love how this song makes me want to cry and dance simultaneously. 💔📸😁
Sometimes when you’re so deep in depression, after many times, and working your ass off, you are faking it but also kinda delirious too 😅. Been there😂.
I think the birthday lyric is a reference to "Its my birthday and ill cry if i want to" by leslie gore.
The guy talking in the background is like the stage manager because she’s talking about being on stage in the Eras Tour
I honestly feel like this is the most heartbreaking song on the album lyrically
This song is such a masterpiece. I can't understand those who complain about the rhythm. That's the whole point! How she presented to the world and kept going 'business as usual' when feeling like dying on the inside. It's such a clever song.
The rotating melody goes with what she probably feels like; dizzy like she's spinning like a top in her own life.
Also catch the irony that it’s a catchy bop with the saddest lyrics . She’s so depressed but she can fake it
i love this album.
I'm so depressed I act like it's my birthday, everyday = Fake it till you Make it!
The production style on this had to grow on me. Initially I didn’t like the ultra upbeat tone but then I realized that was the point. She’s hiding her pain behind a smile so she’s hiding her sad lyrics behind a happy beat.
So many people were so confused about the lyrics! 😂 Youve never pretended you were fine when you were actually really sad or depressed?? I'm so depressed (maybe if there was a ' but' here it would help) I act like it's my birthday everyday. She's a huge musician who has to play shows for thousands of people every night no matter how shitty she feels. Lights camera bitch smile. Fake it till you make it. I can do it with a broken heart. She's miserable but still putting on her best performance.
this song is about performing at the eras tour after her and joe broke up
Pls react zayn's new song alienated live performance

“I’m so depressed I act like it’s my birthday every day” like a massive overcorrection to give the illusion she’s fine
I like the songs Cassandra and Peter off the TTPD anthology
3:00 I love that you’re commenting on production more because you’re pointing out stuff I would have never thought about before so I appreciate it because it lets me appreciate Taylor’s music even more 🤌🏻
This is about her being broken hearted during the Eras tour. Lots of little eggs in the song. Like she’s sad like it’s her bday is referencing her 21st birthday mentioned in All Too Well and other songs.
21st birthday depression when “he” was a no show
She had to ACT like it was her birthday, because she was on tour already when the breakup happened. She still had to make it good for the fans; the show had to go on. Stagecraft, right?
People always taking shit about her songs sounding the same .like how????.. the lakes and this do not sound the same worse yet so long london and this does not sound the same
As you age you dont want your birthday to come because its depressing lol
Shame you didn’t watch it with the video compilation from the tour
not sure what video comp you're talking about - do you have a link?
