The interesting fact is that Marjorie died just 6 weeks after her husband...Thats very soon...after... I wonder if her heart was broken...so sad.. This song is a wonderful tribute to her Grandma...Looking at the pictures.. Taylor sure does have the lower face features of Marjorie...very easy to see...Thanks for this
makes me so emotional how taylor wrote this song for her grandma (marjorie), an opera soprano singer, and taylor, a versatile impact-legacy mezzo soprano artist that shaped the industry forever, makes me so soooft, one of my favs on the record, cheers taylor n marjorie
Listening to the song Marjorie is getting me always emotional because it's like the only song that can manifest that Taylor and her Grandma sang with each other (especially at the very end you'll clearly hear the opera performance of Marjorie as the backing vocals)
I had no idea! I listened to TayTay’s song a million times and wondered about it and this is so heart warming that she sang about her grandmother 👵🏼 ❤️❤️❤️❤️👵🏼
I grew up in the same town as Lindenwood University and even considered going there (but didn’t). I can confirm they have an amazing music program-my dad and I went to one of their choir concerts years ago and he still talks about how much he enjoyed it. I love the thought of Marjorie Finlay living in my hometown, though I was surprised when I first found out! This is such a sweet song and it’s so beautiful that Taylor used Marjorie’s vocals in it.
i tried to look up the show but sadly it is now considered lost media, and i cant find any record of the LP Finlay released in Mexico, not even a name for it. I hope one day Taylor will release the audio of the ac song she used for the background but i doubt it maybe its just too personal for her? it was nice to see some history about the woman anyways lol
It's crazy to think that Taylor just performed for the very first time in Mexico last year during The Eras tour, and the fact that her grandmother's album release was in Mexico decades ago.
Video should be updated. At her Eras tour in Singapore Taylor revealed more about her grandmother’s time in Singapore as an opera singer. Local media ran pictures of her home and outings with her daughter, Taylor Swift’s mother who attended school here for 2 years.
@Sebastian K. Hello, I am the best friend. My name is Moehlenkamp. There is a rocksinger in the USA . He was very popular in the seventees, eightees and ninetees. His name is John Mellencamp or in former times John Cougar Mellencamp. His family changed the name Moehlenkamp in Mellencamp in the beginning of the 20th century. When I retire, I'll do some genealogical research to see how I am related to them. Thank you for your information! ;)
No she has another daughter (Taylor's aunt) called Alison (which is also Taylor's middle name). I'm not sure if she has any cousins on her mom's side, but interestingly, Taylor has a second cousin on her dad's side also coincidentally named Taylor Swift!
TS's maternsl grandmother Marjorie has a more refined natural beauty with delicate sharp features & NOT plastic surgery like Kris Jenner! Just bcos of their dark eyeliner, pls hv eyes to discern & differentiate real natural beauty from fake looks!!
