#TaylorSwift #august #folklore - Hudba
"canceled my plans just in case you'd call" THAT'S SO SAD and we have all done it.
Sadly relatable....
Geerrrrlll 😆💯!! Not sad, but hopeful ❤
me, guilty
been there, too. So sad, but trueeeeeee
😥😥😥
It's currently August here! Any swifties here with me listening to this song as the month starts? :)
Edit: It's August again! (2022) 🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳 Happy august, swifties!
happy august month!!!!
💕
ME. In Mexico arrived 30 min ago and i had to reproduce it lol 😭
Me!
omg me and my friend planned to listen on first on aug!!
To anybody reading this, I pray that whatever you constantly stressing about gets better. May the dark thoughts, the overthinking, and the doubt exit your mind may clarity replace peace and calmness fill your life.🌼
I need to hear this tysm
what a cute comment..
💖💖💖
😢❤💖
❤
This lyrics is chef's kiss. My favorite part is "Back when were changing for the better, waiting was enough". It's when you don't know much about love and life, so the passion is enough. The fact that you "want" is enough because you don't know better. You don't know that it needs partnership, reciprocity, trust etc.
It goes so hard, honestly one of the best songs she’s ever written
It's also my very fav part for the same reason.
Yeah you wanna change for the person and hope it works. Ooof you gonna make me cry again!!!
ugly crying at “you weren’t mine to lose”
Me too
:')
I’m crying rn fck
:'))
Happens to best of us
I still can't believe they named the month August after this song when it was released. Her impact.
😂love this
this is an underrated comment
took me a second to understand 😂😂😂
💀
I know right? Isn’t it so cool ?😂😆
Last August I was in love with an American boy who came to my country as an exchange student. It was love at first sight. I was too shy and it took 2 months to go out with him, only to know that he also liked me from the start. I fell so hard and so did he. Head over heals. We didn't officially date bc we knew he's leaving soon, but instead we agreed that we should make the most of time left we had. We saw each other almost every day, going to a fireworks festival, theater, a beautiful hill to see the sunset and so on... Nobody has never made me feel this happy. Really.
On one sunny day in August, he left to the US. We'd been talking and texting for quite a while since then, but 2 days ago he told me he couldn't keep on going any longer bc it's too tough to be separated and wanting each other this hard. ...yes I understand his feeling. We made a mutual decision to be back to friends and gonna check up on each other sometimes.
I've known this song since the day it came out, but it has never hit me this hard. We actually went to a beach by car and I said "get in the car" in that morning. Now I cannot hold tears when listening to this song. Sometimes life circumstances don't let us be together, but now I wish him nothing but the success for the future. And I'm greatful for the purest memory I have ever had and everything he did for me. One day I want to work in the US and he said he wanna come back to Japan for grad school, I still hope our love comes back.
I'm sorry but I am crying reading this. I understand how you feel. Sometimes we just gotta move forward. There's so much happiness in the world to experience, to be open for, and they're better than what we pine for. Trust me, staying in the past and hoping holds us back
This hits me so Hard when i was reading it. Wish you both all the best and that you can meet again 😢❤️🩹,know exactly how you feel
I can feel the pain of longing and wanting but distance made it impossible to happen. I hope your love will be rekindled in the future and there will be no more goodbyes.
I wish one day, you will come back in here and edit your comment saying: hey, we're back together and getting married soon, ❤❤❤. Distance made it impossible but time will make it possible. ❤❤❤
i read this like im singing some taylor songs
She’s not just a singer, she is a storyteller ❤

Lover: Releases in August, has a song titled “Cruel Summer”
folklore: Releases in a cruel summer, has a song titled “August”
Everything make sense
whoa man
wow
your pfp just makes this whole comment better
HER MIND
*Sparks Fly:* Meet me in the pouring rain
*Afterglow:* Meet me in the afterglow
*August:* Meet me behind the mall
This comment is SOOO underrated 😹👍
Delicate: You can meet me in the back😂
LOL
Yay hehehe
omg
EDIT: I have made peace with the past and closed that chapter of my life. I have cried all I needed to cry and accept that the answer is to enjoy the present. 2011 is not 2024, and what is now is now
I cry nonstop whenever I hear this song. Mine wasn't August, but March. Every lyric here hit my heart, happened in my August/March story. I tried to change for the better for him, cancelled plans for him, hoped we'd meet at school and hang out at home and be twisted in bedsheets. Wishing I could write my name on his back. Thought I had him but chose to be friends. I will forever be in lost in the memories of August/March even if he never will become mine. It has been 12 years since that love story. I've never gotten over it, just stacked it in my subconscious. Whenever I hear this song I remember it all vividly, and cry. So many questions left unanswered. It's still a memory I cherish, because I knew I LOVED truly.
I'm here after TTPD release,yet I still find "Folklore"to be the most amazing album she has ever produced.Hands down.
same
for james it was just a "summer thing" but for the august girl it was a "summer love" that hurts so much:(
and also "i never needed anything more" i feel horrible for the poor august girl :(
But also James loved Betty ,Betty loved James ,august girl ruind everything
@@Saadeddien that's true. august girl isn't innocent here, but she also got her heart broken in this mess, maybe even more than betty, considering she was completely forgotten and left behind. james isn't innocent either, since he cheated on betty for a whole month and knew exactly what he was doing.
@@user-yl5ow9lw1i I think August always had feelings for James even since then. And when she thought she finally had the chance (“Back when I was living for the hope of it all”) she didn’t want to let it go. She fought for her love even though she probably knew that James was dating Betty. Despite that, she was hoping that James would be hers finally because she’s been aching and loving him for a long time already. So maybe it’s an unrequited love for her in the beginning but when James finally came to her (cheating), she couldn’t really do anything except let herself fall, and take the chance.
@@lyfsolev6714 yeah, that makes sense.
taylor swift and jack antonoff wrote a better teenage drama than netflix in three songs.
i agree with you actually
Underrated
Absolutely
what 3 songs was it? betty, August and???
@@arbabqamar9941 Cardigan
It is already September, thank you very much Taylor for creating this masterpiece.
August slipped away into a moment in time fr
Why tears in my eyes.... During listing this song
August really just slipped away now
Nah bro😂
It's already December 😊
I don’t care if this song is about about dealing with a break up. To be it feels like a relaxing summer time song to listen to August.
like taking a ride along the coast looking at the ocean with a breeze going thru your hair.
@@richardw3347OMG YES THATS EXACTLY EHAT THIS FEELS LIKE
@@taylorswiftfan566 appreciate the comment. I feel the same. Bring on the breeze. Lol
@@richardw3347YES YES YES
People don't realize how heartbreaking this song is.😭
it’s 3am and i’m crying
It's heartbreaking :'(
@Incognito Potato periodt
So true😭
This song reminds me of my first breakup. I used to listen to it a lot when it happened. It was extremely tough for me. This song helped me feel my feelings instead of suppress them. It's an amazing song.
“you weren’t mine to lose” hits me so hard ouch!
I thought back the lyric to Cornelia Street that says "I don't want to lose you"
Reminds me of Les Miserables. 'He was never mine to lose'
@selma ayache but the song could also be interpreted as unrequited love. but yeah its about the 'other' girl
same
Guys i made a slowed version of cardigan,if u could watch it it would mean so much to me.🥺👉👈
The part where she says: "Whispers of are you sure?" IS JUST TOO RELATEBLE
So many times I heard this song crying thinking "Oh gosh how fool i was", now I sing this with such a peace on my heart. TIME HEALS EVERYTHING TRUST ME.
The feeling of nostalgia this song gives you is unexplainable
AND ITS NOT EVEN OLD YET 🥺😭✨
THIS. THIS IS THE COMMENT I WAS LOOKING FOR.
so aesthetic
Seven always makes me nostalgic..
This.
Today is Iconic,
Little Mix: Holiday
One Direction: 10 Years
Taylor Swift: folklore (a whole surprise album)
Me tooo😍😍😍
Ya what a surprise..I luv all of them n prolly the happy day fr me
oh yeah!!! i was waiting until someone noticed it! i woke up in the morning and i was like "Holiday... or Folklore... Maybe Folklore first... or not, Holiday is shorter than the entire album"
and...sushant's last movie 'dil bechara'!😍😭💓
MixerSwiftie!!!!! Yaasssss. Holiday and folklore both have so different vibes.
I am not a Swiftie. I heard this on IG. This song makes me cry and it brings me a comforting feeling. It's like nostalgia of something I never experienced 🥰🥰🥰🥰
I’m a swiftie and I can relate to you a lot!
@@LemonIceTeaBobagirl i was crying for an hour because of this song! 😂
It really is a vibe, isn't it? IG is the first place I heard it too.
@@johnmininger7472it is such a vibe 🙂
Have you listened to anything other than this? Lol
"salt air" gives summer beach vibes, when swimming and you smell the air
It's haunting how in some lines the vocals sound so faint and blurred, like she is just a distant memory and nothing else, like she's still trapped in that summer, in her August love
that makes it even more sad :((
not me literally crying over this comment 😓
this comment is gorgeous and underrated
@@yasmine3212 thank you 😭
@@clayen19 oh wow I didn't realize that! that's such a cool thing!!
the "cancel plans just in case you'd call" hit the hardest
Ikr😭😭😭😭been in that situation.
😅😅😅 so true
No one's worth simping for
YASSSSSSSSS
So many cancelled plans.. Hahahahahaha
Does anyone else get teary eyed when the lyric "So much for summer love, for saying 'us', cause you weren't mineeee to lose" comes on? Like not even bc of the lyric but the way Taylor emphasizes those two words just gets me like all up in my emotions. I've just gotten into Taylor Swift this year due to my gf so sorry if this was something I'm way late on 😭🤣
I feel it for her. I literally lived the same story she's telling. The worst thing is I can't still hate this guy. Love taylor and how she can wrote songs that make me feel seen.
can’t believe they named a month after Taylors song, she’s that iconic
😂😂😂😂AS THEY SHOULD
taylor supremacy indeed
The impact 🛐
I was gonna comment this hahah, yes true😌💖
Let's not exaggerate. Nothing was named after her bubble gum pop
this isn’t new taylor or old taylor. this IS taylor.
Yeessssss
😁😁😁
Bro yes
Periodt
Accuracy
YALL AUGUST REACHED 1 BILLION STREAMS ON SPOTIFY!!!! I remember pouring my heart out screaming these lyrics all last summer!! One of the many songs that made me a swiftie 🩶🩶🩶
AUGUST NEEDS A MUSIC VIDEO!!
august was written for people who have an ex that technically isn’t an ex because they never really dated
Exactly!
And I’m sooooo Augustine
Olivia then
Otherwise called "Unlabled relationships"
SHE IS MY EX SHES JUST NOT AT THE SAME TIME 😤
I see a lot of comments wishing august girl finds someone that loves her, and that’s nice, but what I truly wish, is for August to learn how to love herself so she doesn’t cancel her plans for a dude who just sees her as a summer thing ever again
FINALLY SOMEONE SAYS IT!!!!
I CAN'T EVEN UGH-
yooooooooooo
so sweet I'll cry
her name is Augustine, Taylor confirmed in the long pond sessions 😁
August is my favourite song of the teenage love triangle trilogy, I don't care that it got popular on TikTok, I knew the song before that.
The bridge of this song just screams Taylor. That breathless, rapid stream of sentences that evokes this sense of... desperation and hopeless yet passionate longing. She’s an unparalleled master of her art
But still there is a serious dearth of bridges on this album 😭
you're articulate... ! (heart emoji)
Angad Singh I noticed that too! While this is my favorite of her most recent albums, one of the things I loved most about her earlier albums were how amazing the bridges were
@@sophias9686 definitely! Such as You Belong With Me, Enchanted, Back to December, Out of the Woods, Red and many to mention. Her bridges are just so amazing!
She's the QUEEN of bridges 👑
TAYLOR SWIFT wrote this song so we can listen to it for the entire month.

Back when we were still changin for the better wanting was enough - "Falling in love with my best friend was like finding a missing piece of my heart that I never knew was lost." 💜
She not just a singer and a song writer she’s also a storyteller
"We didn't realize we were making memories, we were just having fun." - Winnie the Pooh
I love that thank u!
She makes so many literary references, Jane Austen- Invisible String, Alice in Wonderland- exile, mad woman, cardigan (visuals) and Peter Pan
Enough with your comments
Oh, thank you for mentioning my quote. :)
@@winnipooh1890 lol made my day :D
That "salt air" line is iconic already
Yep!!!
Periodtt
I can taste the air through the lyrics
@@clearbluewater9784 ikr
@@clearbluewater9784 surprisingly me too
Honestly the story from August’s perspective is really more underrated she had it just as hard as Betty
Justice for august
Well she knows what she's getting into
she knew Betty very well and knowingly slept with her boyfriend. she was an accomplice to betrayal, which demonstrates very well the type of person she is. Betty is the only one who deserves justice here
August slipped away!!! 🌾
Who's here on the last day of August rejoicing every bit of it?
My birthday is on 31st August lol
I can't believe they named a month after a Taylor Swift song
you deserved a like
it might taken as a funny thing but deep inside the fact it was named *"august"* is because it was like naming the love of James and the third party girl that happened only in the month of August.. her name wasn't even revealed like James and Betty because we always see the stories of two lovers but we're not trying to know the story of the third person
Pls search for AUGUST MYSTERY GIRL
ikr
Haha😂
"Canceled my plans just in case you'd call" ... I'm crying 😭
Like cancel the lover era and the lover fest?
Same girl same
I have done that for my ex.But he left me a few months ago.
I did it sometimes. I ask who never did? But I’ve learned an important lesson about it. Never do it again. Love yourself first.
@@marciobio1000 truly agree 💯
How does she come up with these words?! It takes us to another space …incredible talent
I think I'm also an August girl, for the simple fact that I was the second choice of the person who, at that moment, I thought was mine. It happened in December, however, it lasted as long as summer love. He had just left his girlfriend, and became my boyfriend the same day they broke up. He never got over her, and I had to put up with being his second choice for almost a month. We broke up when he found out that he always loved the other girl, and not me. He was never mine.
"Cancel my plan just incase you call" we all know how painful this part is
Yea😔 totally feel that
Can we also talk about that part, "Cause you weren't mine to lose"? That hit me soooo badly.
@@satarupagingerkolay 😥
Yes!
When and for why
Augustine didint get the boy, but she got something better: one of the best taylor songs
Also the entire fandom remembering her every year while screaming her story. If that isn't memorializing at it's finest, I don't know what is.
Yeah my august really got a better one now
Salt air, and the rust on your door
I never needed anything more
Whispers of "Are you sure?"
"Never have I ever before"
But I can see us lost in the memory
August slipped away into a moment in time
'Cause it was never mine
And I can see us twisted in bedsheets
August sipped away like a bottle of wine
'Cause you were never mine
Your back beneath the sun
Wishin' I could write my name on it
Will you call when you're back at school?
I remember thinkin' I had you
But I can see us lost in the memory
August slipped away into a moment in time
'Cause it was never mine
And I can see us twisted in bedsheets
August sipped away like a bottle of wine
'Cause you were never mine
Back when we were still changin' for the better
Wanting was enough
For me, it was enough
To live for the hope of it all
Cancel plans just in case you'd call
And say, "Meet me behind the mall"
So much for summer love and saying "us"
'Cause you weren't mine to lose
You weren't mine to lose, no
But I can see us lost in the memory
August slipped away into a moment in time
'Cause it was never mine
And I can see us twisted in bedsheets
August sipped away like a bottle of wine
'Cause you were never mine
'Cause you were never mine, never mine
But do you remember?
Remember when I pulled up and said, "Get in the car"
And then canceled my plans just in case you'd call?
Back when I was livin' for the hope of it all, for the hope of it all
"Meet me behind the mall"
Remember when I pulled up and said, "Get in the car"
And then canceled my plans just in case you'd call?
Back when I was livin' for the hope of it all (for the hope of it all)
For the hope of it all
For the hope of it all
(For the hope of it all)
(For the hope of it all)
“you might have him, but i always get the last word…”
💖🥰😍
I'm an August girl, and this song fits my life so much ❤
"August" takes me "back to December all the time."
this gave me a whole different level of nostalgia that i can't even explain
yeah. i even want to cry. the album touched my heart.
Same.
SAME. in the last 10 seconds i just thought deeply about my adolescence
ME TOO! I’ve cried at two of her new songs (the one and tears ricochet). Exile gave me crazy chills. This is her best album to date. No contest.
It's that magical jack antonoff touch
this is one of her best songs
August 2023. I had a driving trip with my boss daughter from Florida, Georgia,south and North Carolina then back to Georgia, Alabama,Mississippi,New Orleans, Texas,New Mexico,Arizona and California our destination. Omg we listened Taylor swift all her entire albums. Only her music made the driving easy and relaxing specially driving on desert 🏜️😀since then I love Taylor’s music.
august girl and betty really need to ditch james periodt
august girl has now a name its augustine/augusta!! and yes they should ditch him
in the end betty and james got together taylor confirmed that on her disney+ documentary
@@arianamarie_ yeah and I hate it
They just need to ditch James and get together
@@sudharanichippada1841 i think ive seen this film b4 and i didnt like the ending😂
This song is for the second lead characters in the movies, as well as in the real life.
don't do me like that :---(
😢
accurate 😢💔
Hi there I’m doing some yt covers if u have time u can check them ty
...
It’s so cool to know that there’s a month named after a Taylor Swift song
This is indeed a masterpiece for those who have felt one sided love so deeply ❤❤❤
this song is written for people who read old text messages every night
so sad :( I think the same
Thats me 😢
Don’t call me out like that 😭
mood
You slapped on my face lmaooo
For a song without a music video, this one feels insanely visual.
Basically every Taylor's song lol.
The best comment i’ve read! Well done
Sameee!! She's simply brilliant
me with The Moment I Knew
Yes
simply perfect
' back when we are still changin' ' this part is just like a magic. The moods are changing as the notes are rising from low to high. And the song is ending with a hope, ' hope of it all '.we are living with a new hope everyday. this is life.
'you weren't mine to lose' wow that line hits everytime
Shreya were r u from
Cause they never dated so "you weren't mine to lose" hurts
Same. :')
True, It hurts :((
yeah! tell me about it.
anybody else noticed, on one hand she sings: "August slipped away into a moment in time" implies how fast the summer fling passed; but on the other hand: "August sipped away like a bottle of wine" implies how slowly time moved for them and how much they enjoyed it.. damn. that is deep.
Shasha Salve GENIUS. Aww man, that just makes it even sadder. Thanks, I hadn’t noticed
Lolllll I thought of it like how a bottle of wine is seriously like five glasses and everyone is always going “did we get through that bottle already?!”.... it’s like a common thing w alcohol and wine especially lol.... so I thought of it like she was just saying the same thing twice. Like it slipped away and went fast and was gone before they knew it or expected it... like a bottle of wine. But I like yours better lol.
Her mind- I swear
And bless your soul for sharing
makessss so much senseeee
How much SHE enjoyed it. James didn't enjoy it as much since in his song he was thinking about Betty the whole time he was laying next to this girl.
August is truly a soothing song it's not just a song it has so much emotions ❣️ Taylor is such a great artist. She has potential of giving aesthetic vibes❤
Who’s here before her new album cause it’s giving folklore vibes? 🤍
"cause you were never mine" hits home
😔
Ikrr
"You were never mine to lose" is perfect for screaming. 😔
Yeri when Ariana Grande got married:
@@mariunfabregas7533 LMAO
Taylor Swift's titles being all in lowercase letters is such a turn-on to me and Idk why
it's like when fanfiction titles are all lowercase and long AND have a phrase that's in parenthesis 👌
@@thevaultinghorse lol love how specific that is
and the vids are sooo minimalist.
It just makes me think of Ariana grande haha
Wow i didnt even realize that lol
I don't even need to date Taylor...and I still get a dis track. What a time to be alive.
Just like all the other Augusts
August 2023 slipped away like a bottle of wine
Fact : you listened to the whole Evermore album, and you still come back here for August
YES AUGUST IS BETTER THAN ALL OF EVERMORE
evermore was like folklore younger sister
Evermore is not as well made as heavenly folklore. or I dont know maybe ill grow on em someday
i honestly liked evermore better altogether but august is still my favorite song from either album. for now, anyway.
yes
Looking back, I'd say that this is the strongest song in all of folklore. Not the best metaphorically or lyrically, but the feeling of just being abandoned and regarded as a mere 'summer thing' punches the guts in every listen.
ikr. she felt like he is her world but she really was just a "phase" and a mere "summer thing". she's not even the second choice, it just so happened that she was there.
The fact that none of the teenage love triangle songs ever mention her name. I'm glad that everyone, including Taylor gave her a name. Also, a part me thinks that it would be better to left her unnamed just to make it sadder and that she was nothing to James.
That's what makes me return to this song each time
I agree I agree
@@BorinSHort I mean Taylor did say she was only calling her "Augustine or Augusta" in her head. she didn't say it was her actual name 😊😊
Her brilliance..we all cry about this song
I’m actually crying right now listening to it
August is for those who had hoped and never got. They still feel hurt and angry but know that they cant do nothing about it now
Taylor is a genius, intentional or not. She didn't give the August girl a name for a long time, until the folklore documentary. Betty and James were all solid characters with names, but the August girl is just..the August girl. So whenever we talk about the love triangle, we'll only refer to her as 'James, Betty and...the August girl'. We call her 'August girl' just like James calls her 'that summer thing', we talk about her like the people at James and Betty's school will talk about her. She's faceless, nameless and will continue to be known that way, sadly. The stories get passed down by listeners of this song, like how folklore is passed down communities and people inherit names like 'the mad woman' 'the summer girl'.. the same thing happens within our fandom. We call her August girl. She doesn't have a name, she's forgotten, a distant memory that's slowly but surely fading. The song does exactly what folklore is intended to do.
It's definitely intentional. And the rest, I couldn't agree more.
And also how she's a nobody but just a disruption between james and Betty's love story......an object or pawn at the most....
wait you’re so right
This is .... really sad
Omg yes! I love how she performed August at the Grammys 🥺❤️
“meet me behind the mall” The innocence and heartbreak in that line. The lost hope.
This song hurts
@@CatCatCaat yes, I am suffering with this music
I somehow read "meet me in the hallway" I don't even know why
Indeed. This song describes my 2004 summer impeccably
August slipped away like a bottle of wine cause it was never mine
This song needs a music video! 83 millions views is a lot for an audio, especially nowadays on CZcams
this entire album feels like reading a book
it's like reading an old book full of stories passed onto generations, a literal definition of the word folklore indeed.
except these songs are actually entertaining
@@JackAttackA1 Books/stories can be entertaining as well
@@Sara-kq8qb yes but often they are not, especially old books (i enjoy them anyway but i can see why alot of people don’t).
I reminded reading Call me by your name while listening to this song LOL
august seems like a girl who just wants happiness and wants to be loved
i feel this comment so much that i earlier liked this comment few days back and now i am accidently unliking..cause i pressed like button twice..lol
im august
isnt it delicate that taylor now has a song named happiness on evermore
now that the long pond studio sessions is out, you're actually right-
it hurts
She always makes the best songs out there. No one can call her overrated and actually think that she is.
Salt air, and the rust on your door
I never needed anything more
Whispers of "Are you sure?"
"Never have I ever before"
But I can see us lost in the memory
August slipped away into a moment in time
'Cause it was never mine
And I can see us twisted in bedsheets
August sipped away like a bottle of wine
'Cause you were never mine
Your back beneath the sun
Wishin' I could write my name on it
Will you call when you're back at school?
I remember thinkin' I had you
But I can see us lost in the memory
August slipped away into a moment in time
'Cause it was never mine

August sipped away like a bottle of wine
'Cause you were never mine

Wanting was enough

But do you remember?
Remember when I pulled up and said, "Get in the car"
And then canceled my plans just in case you'd call?
Back when I was livin' for the hope of it all, for the hope of it all
"Meet me behind the mall"
Remember when I pulled up and said, "Get in the car"
And then canceled my plans just in case you'd call?
Back when I was livin' for the hope of it all (for the hope of it all)
For the hope of it all
For the hope of it all
(For the hope of it all)
(For the hope of it all)
This is literally me rn. I really liked this guy and it was the first time I actually talked to the person I liked and had their number. I thought he liked me back and that the feeling was mutual, but I’ve been mistaken. I found out today that he had been dating another girl and broke up with her a few days ago… Right away I knew I had to listen to Taylor to feel better as her lyrics are so relatable.
So august at 2:47 is "Get in the car"
And Betty at 2:47 is "She said James get in.."
And 2+4+7 = 13
And folklore was released on 24th of July ( 7th month of the year)
HER MIND!
And it kinda creeps me out sometimes.
Also, on April 27th she said 'not a lot going on at the moment' and April 27 is 4/27. She released the album on 7/24, the reverse of 4/27.

Who is here after Folklore won Album Of The Year?🙋♂️🙋♂️🙋♂️🙋♂️🙋♂️🙋♂️🙋♂️🙋♂️🙋♂️🙋♂️🙋♂️🙋♂️🙋♂️
And the Grammy's performance!!!!
✨as it should✨
@@eyexha You got that right!
Me me
i've always been here, since it launched. Its the cherry on the top of the album
I don't know why, but this song gave me chills & made me tear up. Also the addition of it being on TSITP S2 teaser , makes it extra special for me.
I meet someone this afternoon. I know him from online apps and finally we meet. He was so nice and gentle. I feel bad after met him cause i know he doesnt have the same feeling. When I'm home, I listen to this song. I'm living for the hope of it all...
the way she sings "wanting was enough. for me it was enough" & " you weren't mine to lose" ...... miss swift ...... my heart HURTS
Pls search for August Mystery Girl
And also "cancel plans just in case you'd call" and "say you meet me behind the mall" literally from the bridge to outro is the best part of the song
I felt that too...
I thought it was "one thing was enough", I wasn't reading the lyrics lol
"To live for the hope of it all" gives me major feels.
She certainly has way with words. Rare talent
And her vocal delivery is just the cherry on top. The way she sings really makes you focus on the story she's telling. A rare talent indeed 🦋
@@nd_1989 exactly! It's like she's narrating but in melodies..her Talent is just over this world
Talent isn’t rare, people that know how to express and use their talent are
Of course♥♥♥
@@isaacmacarthur619 you need to calm down
i was born in August, that's why is my favourite
August is ending and putting this song on was just so serene...

Litterally I am like 👁👄👁
💀
Yessssss
“August sipped away like a bottle of wine.” What a line!
ThespiBunny what about it i don’t get it
@@vK9SA sipped away like a bottle of wine.... basically saying its gone by step by step or sip by sip without you ever really realising it yet.... thats it generically....
but full English teacher language mode ...you can infer that august hasn't been yet, and an alcoholic who sips wine a lot, their august will slip away from them without them ever knowing it.
this song feels like falling in love with someone you’ve only seen once in summer, but now the autumn came and you’re looking for the person you have a crush on. then you try to get him out of your mind but he’s still everything you think of.
This is literally one of my favourite songs of TS forever.
I feel like this is the most mature and real Taylor we've ever had
trolliar I agree. People are saying it sounds like “old Taylor” but I feel like this album has a more mature sound to it. And the production Sounds different than anything Taylor has done before as well
But old taylor is today's taylor. Only more mature. She can combine both. The difference are the lirycs. I love all taylors. I grewcup with her. Thank you TAYLOR for everything.
Hope it has something of red lyrics and 1989 sounds, but even better... And yeah, a mature Taylor
Its her choice. And I love all Tylor. Old, new etc 💁❤️
This is my favorite Taylor ❤️
I don't know but I think august, delicate, wildest dreams, cruel summer, getaway car, and style are all SISTERS.
Don't forget enchanted and the moment i knew,,
delete delicate
delete cruel summer and delicate though
It just feels like Betty is the next part of Styles u know with the whole....
I heard rumours abt other girl. He said , what u heard is true but I can't stop thinking about you.
And Heard the rumours from Inez and slept next to her but I dreamt of you all summer long...
It s more like August, getaway car, I know places. It s all about getting away and adventurous romance
The more you will hear the song, the more you will fall for it, this song deserves all the love and appreciation!
I just can’t get over the way she sings, and the beautiful poetry of, the lines “Back when we were still changing for the better, wanting was enough. For me it was enough to live for the hope of it all.” It’s just so beautiful and well thought out!
Also, thought I should mention that I was once an “august girl” who fell hard for a guy that had no intention of ever committing to me in a serious way. I let myself get led on for over a year (cringe) and it wrecked me. But eventually I learned to be okay with myself even without a boy in my life, and after several months of blissful singleness, I met a man who would one day become my husband - who had no hesitation in committing himself to me ❤️
Everyone knows how great this song is but listening to 'august' in August is a whole new level
Trueee 😂
WHOLE new level!🤩✨
..and It's August now!!!!^-^!!
I KNOW RIGHT
Bro I’m listening to it on August thirteenth, I win 💅🏼
