niamh: “taylor can you write a song about me being loud and my neighbors hating me?” taylor: “there goes the loudest woman this town has ever seen! she had a marvelous time ruining everything.” ✌️😽✌️
I posted the cover of the 10 minute version of all too well would mean a lot if you guys check it out on my channel 🍂✨🍂✨ or you can check the link here : ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-zIuZ2wyVaqI.html
I just want to say Taylor once said her favourite line from lover was " all's well that ends well to end with you" and to know she wrote "all's well that ends well but I am in a new hell" I mean you can see the growth,the reason why this line was her favourite.
I don’t see it as “oversharing” but if it is, I LOVE when you over share lol. Your feelings are more relatable than you think😭♥️ this is my comfort channel
I just feel like there is something so sacred about all of us deeply connecting with Taylor lyrics in a way that is so personal but simultaneously so universal? I don’t know it makes me feel like there is an invisible thread that connects us all (hehe). Thank you for your reaction, it’s so gratifying and validating to see someone who is swept away by Taylor’s art as much as I am. Love your articulation of her music, it makes me appreciate it even more if that’s even possible. Love you, thank you for being vulnerable with us 💕
Nothing New is definitely my favorite and I’ve noticed a lot of women really gravitate towards the song because it’s about a fear I think most women have. It’s about loosing your shiny newness of being young because the world is cruel to aging women and it’s seen as a bad thing and the song just perfectly captures that fear :(
That was 1:39:15 and I was totally into every second of it..Not one second did I ever think skip..Your enthusiasm for Taylor herself and her songwriter ability... I don't have words to say what I want...Your heart is wow...I'm a 71yo grandad who has only been listening to Taylor since the start of the pandemic ( shame on me ) I have never gone through so many emotions in my whole life as I have in these past 19 months...NO other music has come close to doing this to me...I adore every single song...my brain finds it hard to memorise all the words ( that sucks ).. I listened to Nothing New a couple of days ago and my heart literally broke...I had to leave the computer for an hour as I couldn't stop crying...thinking about anyone who may have felt the way Taylor sang about...It really is heartbreaking...anyway enough from me...Once again thanks for the best reaction to RED TV on the internet and I look forward to your reaction to just All Too Well 10 min version and then maybe the short film and then maybe the live version on SNL... Your the best :):)
"Taylor knows how to make the song sound like a feeling" EXACTLY! I was wondering what is it in taylors song that it makes us so attached to it.... All too well is a perfect example.
THANK YOU FOR THIS NIAMH 😭 I look forward to your reaction because I don't have any Swiftie friends to celebrate this album with!!! RED IS SUCH A MASTERPIECE ❤❤❤❤
I relate to this so much. Im the only one in my fam and friends who's as fucking dramatic as Taylor. No one understand why I vibe so hard with her songs 😭🖐️
I completely relate to tearing up at the more upbeat songs and I think it’s a mix of nostalgia and the knowledge that I’ll never be the person I was when I first heard these songs again, and being so painfully proud of Taylor. Thank you so much for sharing your life and thoughts with us Niamh, you feel like a dear friend to me and you make me feel so understood 🥺♥️
Honestly, this is probably one of the only Red (Taylor's Version) reaction videos that I'll watch. Taylor albums are just so sacred to me, so I only trust other Swifties' opinions about it since they know the ins and the outs of everything. So, thank you for this video, Niamh. 🥰 Thanks for having a safe space for Swifties to exist in your social media spaces! PS: We might not be able to celebrate our 22nd birthday to 22 (Taylor's Version) but YOU JUST KNOW that we are gonna blast the shit out of that song on New Year 2022!!!!!!!!
What fucks me over is that there are so many normal length songs that after a while (sometimes not even a long time after) just... bore me halfway through and I change it. I just don't see that happening with the 10min version. Every single lyric and melody is interesting and emotional. I've listened to it so many times now and I almost teared up. I cannot comprehend at times how good it is, when for the past 9 years I thought "there is no way there is a better version of All Too Well out there". Boi, was I wrong.
Ok but what’s so great about Nothing New is although she talks about people losing interest in her when she’s no longer a novelty she wrote that at 21 here she is TEN YEARS LATER and she’s making new fans and breaking Spotify records
this is just my opinion, but out of everything from the vault, nothing new blew me away the most. "how did i go from growing up to breaking down?" literally killed me. i'm also the biggest fan of phoebe and both their vocals together got me.
Its weird. I've had all of Taylor's albums, I know Taylor's Version is pretty much identically recorded as the originals but it's like a new album. I can't believe how many songs I didn't really listen to. Sacrilegious I know.
I had that with Fearless tv and now couple of the songs I almost never listened to on the original one are my favorites on Taylors version haha with Red I always listened to the whole thing cause there was a slight obsession there ;p
I didnt really listen to her until last year, right around when the first rerecorded album was released. So I'm kind of introducing myself to her through Taylor's Version.
I think it's because it was getting dark and it looks like you only had the ring lights (or whatever lighting equipment you use) on :) but it doesn't matter! Still a FABULOUS reaction and video, I love hearing your thoughts and experiences with Taylor
Listening to these songs again was such an overwhelming experience for me too, I completely understand how you started tearing up in the more "upbeat" songs. I was exactly like you, I didn't realize that the first song would hit me so hard but it really did. This album was such a big part of my life and growing up (I was 12/13 when it came out) and so hearing the songs again puts me right back into that time and the whole kalidiscope of emotions that came with it, with now the added extra eight years of experiences I've lived through since. It was overwhelming in every possible way to get to hear these songs with new life breathed into them
I love to see everyone’s reaction when the “And you were tossing me the car keys” part come as every swiftie so confidently goes on with “And I know it’s long gone” and that reaction on their face after listening to the new version is *priceless* 😂❤️❤️
But where’s the whole footage from the event with Taylor?! Bestie, we need more! Haha. Btw if you see this, fangirling here, I love you and your content, and I live in Mexico, and I do social media for a skin clinic in NYC in the Upper East Side. I asked if I could invite you over for a free facial or treatment or massage and they said yes, so pleeeease tell me you wanna go! I would literally get on a plane so I can welcome you myself haha. Ok no I wouldn’t because my visa is expired, but you could go regularly 👀
The fact that I've never experienced everything she's written about because I've never been in a relationship, but I still have been relating, since I was 13-14, to all the stories that she tells like they're mine- The pictures are just way too vivid!! (p.s. I just had a crying session again right along with you on my second listen 🥺❤)
The fact that you didnt monetize de video talks alot about how much you wanted to share your feelings with us ❤️🧣❤️🧣 THANK YOU, sending you love from Veracruz, Mexico 🇲🇽❤️
"Maybe this thing was a masterpiece 'til you tore it all up" the fact that Taylor literally gestured to herself while performing this live at SNL as a way of saying that THIS SONG was a masterpiece ugh! And yess I love the idea that the people who told taylor the song can't be 10 mins long tore up the masterpiece that it is!!!
Nothing new hit me SOOO hard. I just entered my 20s and shit’s getting really tough. I feel like Nothing New is just the universal feeling of aging as a woman in this society, Taylor doesn’t miss.
So Forever winter is actually about depression and mental health, she wrote it about one of her friends who in their twenties died to a drug OD. She was talking about how she didn't notice the signs of him being depressed and how she would be his "summer sun forever" and it would be "forever winter if you go" meaning she would be heartbroken if he died. He also died when they were both in their twenties, so when she says in the song "too young to know it gets better" that's why. I know a lot of people tend to right off this song the first time they hear it, like I did, but it's really emotional and a really good song!
I was in a bad relationship with a man 10 years older than me, and he would always say things like I was getting older, or I was just young enough for him. Nothing New, The Moment I Knew and the 10 minute All Too Well really hits hard. The pain of being used and blamed by the user for the things he did, and the intensity of the love I had for him, despite all of that, Taylor made that into music and bless her for that
"I can exhale again" after ATW10 ends is SO relatable holy shit. Like you said, that song is so gripping (and your entire reaction vid is as well, btw!) One of my favorite lines in the extended ATW is actually a really simple one: "Just between us, I remember it all too well." Bc like. She's already said she remembers it, in front of the entire world, and then said it again and again, at concerts, at the Grammys, etc. She's always stated it like an obvious fact. But the original ATW was literally split in two, and edited to tell a cohesive story that wasn't *too* specific. Not *too* angry or vulnerable. It was made palatable. And at the end of the day, like Taylor's has said, songs are stories and you ultimately only show people what you want them to see. So hearing the "Just between us..." lines, after she's already confidently/publicly/repeatedly that same thing, almost verbatim for a whole ass decade, feels like this really intimate moment of confession (if that makes sense.) Anyway! I loved this song, and this album, and your reaction; thanks so much for taking us on this journey!
she really went “ah this bitch” whenever taylor went “i can feel time moving” and i’m 17 and i felt that on a whole level…watching everyone graduate around me and figure everything out and feel time moving at teenager
If there is one thing I could say it’s to enjoy every day of your youth 😭 I was in such a rush to turn 18, then turn 21, and they weren’t lying when they said time flies as an adult lol. I turned 28 this year and I feel like I was 18 just yesterday. I’m having a hard time with approaching 30 😂 I love Nothing New because although it’s about Taylor’s fears of aging out of the industry, I feel like it can be applied to aging in general and it’s so relatable!!!
Here’s the thing.. I’m a Swiftie for as long as I could remember. But my friends aren’t a fan. They’re not hating just not a fan. I was never in-charge of music on road trips cos they know it’s just going to be Taylor on repeat. But When she rereleased RED, a handful of people who know me including my closest friends sent me messages and videos of them listening to All Too Well and the rest of songs from Red. It’s a dream come true for me.
Aunque entienda poco el inglés, entiendo perfectamente las expresiones de tu rostro... tan emotivo,tanto sentimiento,lo q puede hacer la música de Taylor.. la amo.
I really love your reaction videos because of how heartbreakingly honest they are. As someone who feels a lot, it's a constant balancing act of acknowledging the emotions while also working hard to suppress them. Your videos have always felt like a safe space, thank you for providing this quiet corner of peace
Out of all reactions to this version of Red this is what I’ve been most anticipating I saw she came out with another Taylor’s version and immediately thought about you because your the biggest TSSF(Taylor Swift Super Fan) I know
it is really felt weird hearing the 10 minutes version after being so used to listening/jamming to the short version then after listening to 10 minutes version, it felt illegal to listen to the shorter version.
Forever winter is most likely about a friend with mental health issues and how you just want to tell them the right thing to make them stop thinking about ending it all. 💔 this song makes me BAWL every time I listen.
your reaction was the same as my reaction, and I just love how unifying and emotional it is to listen to and love Taylor Swift. your videos feel like talking to an old friend! Thanks Niamh
I love your Taylor reactions! They’re my comfort videos now so thank you for doing this. I love to see someone who is just as affected and meticulous about every lyric as I am.
I posted the cover of the 10 minute version of all too well would mean a lot if you guys check it out on my channel 🍂✨🍂✨ or you can check the link here : ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-zIuZ2wyVaqI.html
I loved seeing your reactions - especially to All Too Well 10mins. The lyrics from the 10 mins just hits so much harder. Every new addition added something to the story and just paints a better picture. I thought I loved the song before but the 10 mins version is all that and so much more.
This girl needs to get noticed by taylor herself and be claimed as one of her children like olivia and conan. She deserves SO FUCKING MUCH!! Keep doing what you're doing Niamh as long as it make you happy
Holy Ground and The Lucky One are some of my faves songs too. Your reaction on these made me smile so much. And I instantly loved Nothing New too. For me it's like the older, matured, more experienced version of The Lucky One. I hope you'll react to the All To Well short film?
Really grateful for this reaction... I genuinely don't find people being this Vulnerable and accepting/acknowledging their emotions combined with positive thoughts... You're truly a breath of fresh air girl....
*starts atw 10 minute version* niamh, clearly scared, happy, free, confused, anxious, lonely and excited at the same time: "i like that the sound's different"
Niamh I love your album reactions, I've been a fan of Taylor's music forever but your perspective and the way you talk about these songs helps me connect to them in new ways and just makes me love them even more. thank you for sharing all your thoughts on here :,)
My God!! I think all Swifities have same reaction when she says "you were tossing me the car keys" instead of "i know its long gone" -that bewildered 'what the fuck' face then screaming its a new verse😭😂😂😂😝
I love this so much, it felt like a listening party with a friend who loves Taylor as much as I do 😭 Just a note on Holy Ground (also one of my all time faves!!!), I think in the context of the song it means "hallowed ground", or "sacred ground". So it's the rare song where Taylor looks back at a relationship that was really really fun and ended amicably (in the usual way). She's saying, that time we had together, that was a special place in our history, a space that I will keep hallowed in my mind (right there where we stood, that's now holy ground). Holy Ground walked so that Style, Happiness can run!
"just between us, did the love affair maim you too" didn't think hearing this would tear me apart as much as did.... Cause like yea...been wanting to ask this to this one person for a long ass time... Now it's just making me realise that( even if it didn't) it doesn't change shit.
That’s so interesting because I thought forever winter was about her trying to prevent her friend from committing suicide. I never saw it from the perspective you mentioned.
i need to know what lipstick you have on!! also, i totally relate to the giddiness and teariness of Red just being ours again. it's felt like a guilty thing to listen to it in prep for Red TV this week- but i wanted to say goodbye to the old versions and these songs that meant so much. And then i get them back! :''''D
I have been waiting for your RED reaction...Now it has arrived everyone else's are back catalouge. Nobody but Nobody reacts to Taylor like you do...I've watched everyone of them...and been on the journey with you for them all..Your emotions and relatability to the songs..... priceless...This has now made my RED TV experience complete...Thank you so very much Niamh....please never stop being Niamh...Your a diamond in the sand 💖
This reaction was so beautiful and I definitely teared up because we are all so effected by how much she puts into her music. I adore her so much and she’s my favorite artist for a reason. #ayoutuber P.S: I’m trying not to listen to Taylor’s old albums as well until her versions come out. ☺️
when i was listening to the album, i was literally noticing the little details like the change in tone of the guitar, the way she sings like the "found" in ikywt differently, and even the tone of the drums 😭
"THIS IS GONNA BE DIFFERENT, RIGHT? NO *sighs* WE'RE STILL GOOD *sighs again*" literally me when I thought there's gonna be new second verse. HAHAHAHAHA
