Taylor Swift | evermore | Album REACTION!! 

I love how he doesn’t talk about how Taylor just murdered Este’s husband AT ALL

When I first heard Tolerate it, it killed me. Finally someone appreciated this song. I found some people it went over their head.

The track five thing was first coincidental, fans noticed that in her first few albums, she put her saddest, most vulnerable songs on track five, so after that Taylor started to intentionally put her saddest song as track five!

This is the most genuine Evermore reaction I've ever watched

marjorie is her grandmother, and the vocals on the outro is a sample of her (she was a well known opera singer and one of Taylor’s musical heroes)

Taylor said Dorothea is the girl singing ‘Tis the Season. So those two songs tie together, she moved to LA to “make it” but they still think of each other.

In “Long Story Short” she isn’t bending the pronunciation of Nemesis. She’s using the plural form Nemeses :)

Did he just cut the entire champagne problems bridge???????!!!!! 😭😭

All her track 5s are most vulnerable and honest ones from the album.

Marjorie is Taylor’s grandmother

"Not her job to be a rapper" Me-=laughs in Reputation=-

She did credit the background vocalist on Cowboy like me! It’s Marcus Mumford from Mumford and Sons (:

Taylor loves Christmas. She actually grew up on a Christmas tree farm and she even has a song called like that.

I love that he’s a reactor that pays attention so closely to the lyrics. You HAVE to in her work and the appreciation is so refreshing. I’d subscribe a hundred times if I could.

I'm a huge Swiftie and I can say it's totally fine to say you don't like some songs!! No one should be attacked for it! I don't like Closure tbh. It's one of my least favorite Taylor Swift songs.

Track 13 are always special to her and in her last few albums were about family members. Lover track 13 was about her mom. Folklore track 13 was about her grandpa. This one is about her grandmother.

folklore cameout exactly 139 days before evermore which is 1+3+9 = 13 ✨

HAIM is a band made up of 3 sisters, the Este who gets murdered in No Body No Crime is Este Haim from the band. They’re some of Taylor’s best friends and so great in their own right you should check them out! Their album is actually up against folklore for Album of the Year at the Grammys this year.

I’m pretty sure “Closure” is about Kanye. A couple of months ago Kanye went wild with tweets and tweeted that he wanted to help taylor get her record back and I’m pretty sure this song is taylor basically saying I don’t need to make amends with you... I’m doing better now. That is why this song has that Kanye vibe

"Were you standing in the hallway With a big cake, happy birthday Did I paint your bluest skies the darkest gray? A universe away And when I got into the accident The sight that flashed before me was your face But when I walked up to the podium I think that I forgot to say your name" Coney Island... once you listen to her other albums and you go back to this you will understand. She makes many connections to other songs and it always makes me smile when she does it.

In "tolerate it" she ends the song with "i sit and watch you" because at the end she never really did what she said on the bridge, she only considered to but never did because of fear/sadness, as a result she re-starts the song That's the concept Never telling it... so sad tbh :(

Damn you haven't even heard RED and REPUTATION yet and you already love Taylor this much . ❤️❤️

"Closure' is about Big Machine Records, her old record label, and the instrumentals is literally a machine sound

time stamps: 3:03 willow 7:19 champagne problems 11:20 gold rush 14:09 'tis the damn season 17:05 tolerate it 24:22 no body, no crime 28:47 happiness 32:17 dorothea 33:42 coney island 38:32 ivy 40:45 cowboy like me 42:51 long story short 46:25 marjorie 51:07 closure 57:43 evermore

My theory is that closure is about her old Record Label, Big Machines. She had a huge fall out with the owner of her record label because he refused to sell her music back to her even when she could afford to buy it.

love this reaction! also some fun facts: "the road not taken" is referencing "the road less travelled by" from folklore, you're right, but the actual reference is from a poem by robert frost where he said "two roads diverged in a wood and i took the one less travelled by, and that has made all the difference". she referenced this poem in both her songs. she wrote 'tis the damn season while being drunk in the middle of the night

For me the sister of gold rush is mirrorball... I mean they have the same vibes for me. 💙💛

You should check out her christmas song then.. Christmas Tree Farm! :) She grew up on one and that‘s what the song is about. Taylors the biggest christmas enthusiast I‘ve ever seen xD

you should definitely give HAIM’s album a try! their album “women in music pt.iii” is one of the bests of 2020 too. if folklore is an autumn album and evermore is a winter record, women in music part iii is summery. it kind of pays tribute of the sound of nostalgia - from 60s-70s soft rock to 90s alternative music, with very sunny sound palette. ps. the girl named “este” that taylor mentioned in no body, no crime is actually one of the members of the trio (the three are sisters) but yeah, the song is purely fiction

Champagne problems is definitely in the top 10 of my favorite Taylor Swift’s song. Makes me sobbed every time, also one of her best bridge. Fun facts: Joe, her boyfriend, play the piano on the track!!

For me in Closure she sings to kanye west and the sound st the beggining is a way to say its about him without name him, because its a very kanye sound

The way people thought she has made the best albums in past ... But she comes back and she proves Everyone wrong ...she can improve in 6 months ..she is damn goddess now

Closures not supposed to sound fully complete. It’s a song about her fulfilling the “mad women” role and stripping herself from her usual song composing. Yet she makes the song, with the odd drums in mind to give the idea it’s being ripped from her mouth, to show all the words she wanted to say in response to people assuming things about her/ might apologize for assuming things later

Closure - am I the only person who adores this song? It’s so industrial NIN feel - so much love for this one ❤️

My thoughts on these two albums. Folklore was a midnight confession. While Evermore was waking up to a breaking dawn. Folklore crushed me and left me with a cliffhanger. It was dark and powerful. But Evermore somehow gave me some sort of closure in the end. It's hard to explain this feeling. In Folklore, it was almost like she was looking back at her past and present and trying to find clarity out of all the chaos. But she wasn't still out of the woods yet. There were glimpses of evermore in Folklore too. On the other hand, Evermore lifted my spirit. I genuinely needed it. Look at how Willow picked up from Cardigan in the MV. She was missing a person in Cardigan. It took her on a journey with the help of her music but she came out with empty hands alone in her room. Again, it leaving us with a cliffhanger. But in the next moment she looked down and it wasn't empty anymore. The gold thread pulled her back into another journey but this time, the person followed her as she followed him. And just when she thought nothing has changed, she found her man who was waiting for her all this time. With Folklore, she arrived at the station for a new adventure. And Evermore is the journey on the train. The pain and regrets will still follow her but that's life. You can't avoid it no matter what. And my gut feeling tells me that she needed this when her next project comes out. I maybe wrong but I'm just saying. Now, some may like folklore better than evermore and vice versa. But personally for me i love them both equally because what kind of parent picks a fav child? Maybe some do, but not me. Some of the songs kind of threw me off in Evermore on my 1st listen. But when I listened to both albums back to back again, it made more sense better than I can explain. You just need to be on the right frame of mind devoid of the initial release expectations/rush

Joe Alwyn with Taylor from Reputation, Lover, Folklore & Evermore four albums!!! and i hope he gonna be her forever i love see her happy 💜

Not me checking your channel every few hours since this album dropped 👀 Thank you!

Well now Taylor remains off socials but SHE IS THE BIGGEST STAN OF CHRISTMAS. During 1989 era , she literally handpicked and handpacked gifts for her fans and sent them all over the country . THERE IS LOTS OF FOOTAGE OF PEOPLE RECIEVING VERY SPECIFIC GIFTS AND A LETTER FROM TAYLOR or some of the times Taylor herself reached their houses .

I think this might be my favourite reaction video ever. Not only because of your spot on comments (tolerate it was an immediate favourite of mine too) but because of how genuine and heartfelt all you comments were. An hour watching this absolutely flew by for me and honestly I could listen to you for hours. Thank you so much for the time spent making this, I hope you know how appreciated it is

Dorothea is the girl singing in ‘Tis The Damn Season, she’s a girl who left her little hometown for fame and stardom in Hollywood, and made fake friends there. She knows the only person left who actually cares about her and knows her is the boy back in her hometown (the one singing Dorothea) so when she comes home for a visit so she stays with him just for that weekend, because she has to leave again for LA “I won’t ask you to wait if you don’t ask me to stay”

i just love your reaction man ! your attention to details especially when it comes to lyrics, the way she handles lyrics is what made me a big taylor fan and seeing you appreciate it too, makes me super happy

I love your TS reactions! ❤ i like listening to you about the lyrics. Keep up the great work!

Taylor was always a country artist, until 2014 when she change to pop. She made 4 country albums

I agree the instrumentals on Closure is distracting. But she did that for a reason, right? She never does anything without reason. I think maybe that’s the point. I don’t think this is about Kanye but I have heard someone else say that instrumental was similar to something he had done before. So maybe it is about Kanye. That’s the only reason I would think why she would have that instrumental on this track, it kinda ruins it. Whatever the reason, I think that’s the point. It’s supposed to ruin it just like whatever this person did ruined any hope of mending ways, and this instrumental never gets resolved.... it continues to be a distraction. Closure would mean eliminating that instrumental. But she doesn’t need the closure. It has to mean that.

BTW Taylor is a huge Christmas lover. She even grew up on a christmas tree farm (she has a christmas song called christmas tree farm too btw) and she even did a swiftmas where she sent gifts to fans on christmas a few years ago

Your reactions are so genuine and heartfelt...i just found your channel and it's great♥️

I will love to keep following you in your deep dive into Taylor Swift discography - you really get her clever writing.

I felt the same way about closure. Strong Kanye vibes.

This is my first time watching you and now I'm going go watch all your Taylor content. I am such a huge Taylor Swift fan and don't really have any other people in my life that understand my adoration for her. You said all things I was feeling about this new album. You understand how much of a stand out writer/singer/artist she is and I love that. I subscribed after the first song reaction.

You have a fantastic vibe and you have the most thorough reaction I’ve seen yet. Subscribed to you ✨

I watched this reaction back when it came out and I really enjoyed your honest comments and sincere emotions. I watch a decent amount of reaction videos, and yours really stand out to me ... so much so that 10 months later, I was looking for something to watch while grading homework and I came back to this. So I just wanted to comment and thank you for producing quality reactions. :)

Been waiting for this❤❤

Dude I was looking forward to your reaction so much. You, Cait, Stephen, Ash, and Ajay are my favorites and I think you have one of the most rounded apprisched to appreciating the different aspects of music. Its a crime that you dont have 100k subs

I’m watching your Taylor videos back to back. I see your books on your piano, come on over to the Booktube corner of RU-vid. 😆♥️❄️

The lyric video for Marjorie is absolutely worth a watch when you get the chance, or maybe you could even make a reaction vid to it? There's all this home footage in it that makes the song hit even harder lol

44:00 Nemeses is the plural of nemesis. She didn't have to bend the word, she's just saying there's more than one 🖤

Taylor's grandmother Majorie, was an accomplished opera singer! Love that she put both of her grandparents in songs, Epiphany (on Folklore) starts with her talking about her Grandfather serving in the war and this song "Marjorie" about how she influenced Taylor and how she still feels so close to her. On both albums they are track #13, Taylor's favorite number and her birthday is December 13th!

Would love to see a little tour of all the vinyls/CDs you have on your walls!

Ooh Yeah Closure is About Kanye... The instrumental was put there on purpose, and its also on purpose that it sounds annoying and that it doesn't belong there.. You know the message of the song.. Like I don't need your closure.. Like You don't belong in my life :) it makes so.much sense

dude I literally love you now. I adore the way you talk about her lyricism and just how you hear whatever music you’re listening to... YES. you’re what all reactors should be

Love the new setup!!

I’ve been waiting for your reaction!

Been waiting for ur Evermore reaction since watching ur Folklore reaction last night and it was so good🤍

WERE YOU LISTENING TO THE CLEAN VERSION? also, this album really is THE shit

Marjorie Finlay, the opera singer grandmother of Taylor that inspired her. She died on 2003 when Taylor was 13, the time she was finding a record deal on Nashville. the lyric video is more like an actual music video.

Not sure if someone's already mentioned this, so I have been a huge Bon Iver fan forever and how Justin Vernon (lead singer of Bon Iver) sounds on 'Evermore' is how he usually sounds. The deep voice in 'Exile' was different from how we're used to hearing him. Also so glad you're doing these reactions coz Folklore was definitely my favourite album last year and I freaked out when she released Evermore so soon after.

I’m enjoying seeing you become a swiftie. Can’t wait for you to get to rep and RED

Yes her first three albums were country. Self titled, Fearless and Speak now.

The first 3 records (Taylor Swift, Fearless and Speak Now) from Taylor are pure country, then she realesed RED which was country and pop. After she got 1989 entirely pop and then Reputation, Lover, Folklore and Evermore

Am I the only one who loves closure, please...

I wish I could hit the LIKE button more than once! Love from the Caribbean.

Watch Marjorie's lyric video, she shows videos and moments of her and her grandma Marjorie, her mom's mother who was an opera singer and inspired Tay to become a singer. I whipped watching those moments between her and her grandma.

This album feels much sadder than folklore, but it's so beautiful. Dare I say, an improvement. I love all of the songs so much. Cowboy like me doesn't really grab me, but the lyrics, as always, are pure genius. I think Coney Island is slept on a little.

In long story short, "nemeses" is actually just plural for "nemesis". Shes not pronouncing it special like you thought.

I do notice folklore she is a lot breathier and evermore she's singing with much less breath and with a sweet brighter texture. She is a great vocalist.

You've GOT to react to her country albums! She's such a fantastic genre hopper

Loved this reaction so much ❤️

You seem like such a pure soul, so genuine and exactly my vibe. You wanna be Taylor's friend, i wanna be yours. Dude you're cool! (Btw, me being English and saying dude un-ironically feels bizarre but it was necessary😅) Sidenote: Coney Island is up there on the album for me, also it is full of references to earlier songs - Dear John, The moment i knew and Out of the woods. Miss Swift is insanely clever, she intertwines ANYTHING and EVERYTHING.

I like how the "sh*t" word in Tolerate It was bleeped, then few seconds later you said the same uncensored hahahhhaa

Marjorie is about her grandmother who was an opera singer and inspired Taylor. Her grandmothers vocals are also in the song after the lyrics”singing to me now” and at the end of the song

Don’t worry if you do not like all of the songs- not even all swifties like every song she releases. I love your honest reactions so keep them up!!

Marjorie brings me to tears every time i hear it. It's so beautiful!!!

Randomly woke up at 4am, perfect timing 😊

Thank you for reacting to evermore. Patiently waiting for your reputation and RED 😂

I will never stop commenting but when you sung that 'teardrop in my guitar' I SAY YOU MAKE A COVER OF IT HUHU

Loved it!! Please do Reputation next 😭❤️

tolerate it hits me so hard. I´ve felt this way about my father for so many years and jesus.. i never ever have made it to the point where I could put the feelings into words, then she did it for me.

Not sure if you plan on listening to her entire discography, but DEFINITELY listen to the songs "Dear John" on her Speak Now album, and "All Too Well" on her Red album. These two songs are considered her best during her Country era. The songwriting is absolutely insane. In "Dear John" she's singing about an ex (John Mayer) and she absolutely SLAYS him. The song starts slow and then builds and builds and builds. I also think it's one of her best vocals to date. And in "All Too Well" she takes you through an entire relationship and paints the picture so vividly -- just songwriting genius.

In marjorie, they also managed to include a snippet of her grandmother singing and she's credited as a background vocalist on the track! It's a really lovely song, and so incredible how they were able to make it that much more personal with the addition of that detail.

I love the reaction

Love this reaction as always. You should totally listen to more of HAIM!

I absolutely love watching the birth of a new swiftie 😍

coney island is my fav track of the album and i wanna cry everytime i listen to “and when i got into the accident, the sight that flashed before me was your face” “when the sun goes down, the sight that flash before me was your face” referencing out of the woods (one of my favs tracks from 1989). i love her mind 🥺🩹❤️

I've had this album on loop since it came out. Folklore is still my favorite, but this one grows on me every time I hear it. However, I didn't think about the fact that Taylor doesn't do anything by accident (regarding the beat on "Closure") until you reminded me. #ImtheworstSwiftie

She released a Christmas song last year . Listen to it . CHRISTMAS TREE FARM

your reaction on 'tolerate it' 🥺 i feel you 🥺🥺🥺

I think "Tolerate it" is about someone who gives everything to her/his lover but that love is tolerate ,its so sad,love tay!try to listen and watch all her albums and MV!she is a queen!

Marjorie hits soooo hard for me. I makes me think of my grandma who I spent most of my time with as a child & aunt who I never got to meet because she died when she was 24 but I’ve always felt connected to her somehow. Especially now that I’m 24. When she says “I should have asked you questions. I should have asked you how to be.” Kills me because when we’re young we’re so caught up in our own lives that we forget to ask the people who have already lived how they did it.

29:30 "seven years in heaven" okay so taylor told us in interview with AppleMusic that she wrote this song because her friend was going through a break up. There is a rumour that her bestfriend Abigail, is getting divorce with her husband. They dated since 2013/14 if i am not mistaken. So yeah.........

I love the reaction to closure!! I think we all went through that same process. Taylor never does anything on accident and I think the instrumental is representing the struggle with wanting to be ok with a situation but not actually having any closure with a situation. Kanye is a great shout at who this is addressed to. Another option is Scooter Braun. Thanks for posting this :)
