Taylor Swift - My Tears Ricochet Reaction (Long Pond Sessions) 

You haven’t even scratched the surface. If you dig deeper, you'll become a full blown Swiftie. 😂

“This is me trying” is a must from this session.

“Exile” from these Long Pond sessions is perfection. I’ll die on that hill.

"Man...If there's a lot more of this kind of stuff in her catalog, I'm lookin' forward to delving a lot more into it." INSTANT FOLLOW, because she totally does. I'm excited for you!

Oh, I love this one! It's about Scott Borchetta from her label, Big Machine Records. She was so close to him, and he betrayed her by selling her catalog without her knowledge. When she mentions jewels (you wear the same jewels that I gave you (gold, platinum records) as you bury me. And the stolen lullaby line is superb.

Taylor writes ALL of her lyrics/songs. The guy on the piano, a producer is Jack Antanoff, on guitar is also producer Aaron Dessner, both award winning. Taylor is the most Brilliant songwriter, without question. She has said herself, I’m a songwriter first, who sings her own songs.

I will never get tired of watching grown men discover her genius. ♥️

People have no idea what they're missing when it comes to Taylor and all the different genres and styles that she has across her discography. Most just still see her as a teen girl strumming her guitar that never grew up. She is an immense talent and has something for almost everyone if they just give her a chance. ❤

One of my favourites ❤ 1. This is Jack Antonoff - producer, they work together for years and are great friends,, he also work with Lana Del Rey 2. Track 5 in all her albums is the song that feels more personal to her, more vulnerable 3. This song can be taken as a betrayal by a friend, going through a divorce, literally taken you're dead and the person who killed you is at your wake, but Taylor's reasons for writing come from very deep betrayal by a father figure in her life Scott Borscheta - the owner of her previous label who was with her from the very first album when she was 15-16 years old. He owned her first 6 albums and was planning to sell the company and she knew and wanted to buy her masters but he wanted to sign another contract - for every new album she could buy one old one and she refused and sign with new label but the masters from now on will be hers. Then the biggest betrayal was when he sold the company to Scooter Braun - a man who hates her and through out the years they had feud, so now this enemy of hers "owned" her and if she wanted her music back she had to sign NDA to never speak badly about him ever again - of course she refused. The end of the story, how she won: she decided to re-record all of her past six albums again and now they even sold more then before and even films, radios etc. are using her new masters so basically the old ones are worthless. Until now she has re-recorded 4 albums (while releasing 2 new ones and touring) and we're waiting on the last two - Reputation and Debut. That's why you can see on some songs there is "Taylor's version" her re-records and also she puts as a treats for the fans some never heard before songs which didn't make the final cut on the albums One thing about Taylor - she's very protective of her song writing and melodies👍 Another suggestions: 1. Seven ( about childhood friend who at the time she hadn't realized that it's from an abusive home and just wnated to move together so she can stop crying) 2. Cardigan - there is very beautiful music video 3. The Lakes 4. All too well - (10 minute version) - it's very old song but for her age of 21 I think the writing is amazing 5.Ivy - secret relationship/ cheating 6. Cowboy like me - one of my all time favourites ❤ 7. Dancing with our hands tied - it's more upbeat, beautiful melody 8. Would've, could've, should've - it's from the perspective of 32 years old Taylor when she was 19 and dated a 32 year old and still regrets it to this day😢 9. Exile feat. Bon Iver - immaculate song, also there is version of it in the Long Pond Sessions

She will evoke some secret place in you that you had no idea anyone could know.

She's honestly one of the best writers to ever exist

It’s among the greatest she’s written. It’s among the greatest ever-in that pantheon.

The more you learn about Taylor, the deeper you will venture down the rabbit hole. Can't wait to see you react to other Taylor Swift songs. All of FOLKLORE is amazing. Then you can venture into watching ALL TOO WELL 10 minute movie.

The Folklore and Evermore albums are probably right up your alley. She dropped these albums just a few months apart early in the pandemic with zero notice. They’re spectacular. Shes an incredible lyricist.

You've described it exactly: there are a small number of songs, when I heard them for the first time it felt like I already knew them, like I'd heard them all my life because they're so perfect. This is one of those songs.

Taylor describes her songs as written with a glitter gel pen, fountain pen or quill. She has different styles of songs. I think that is a fabulously funny way to describe her songs.

Champagne problems, happiness, tolerate it are amazing examples of more songs like this one

Her live version of this on Eras Tour is one of my favorite performances.

This is me trying with the talk before hand! From long pond. Gets me every time. I always say people who only know “radio Taylor” are missing out. For whatever reason, her singles are never her best. Great reaction! 🥰

Nobody can write lyrics like Taylor. The girls pen is fire!

Okay, now I can't wait until we get to 'Exile' (Long Pond, of course)

Oh boy you found a portal to this dimension of the swift catalogue. I am absolutely positive you will blissfully suffer, deeply painfully indulge in joy, in communion with the rest of us! Although the music is slow and somber, buckle up, this gets very deep very fast! In behalf of us, welcome brother!!!

This song is one of the best/simplest presentations of how powerful her writing can be.

This song is in my top ten Taylor songs, which means nearly top songs of any songs. The passionate mourning in this performance makes me cry every time. It's about her breakup with her record label in which they tried to cheat her of her rights, but it could be about any breakup of a long-term relationship. There's a reason they teach Taylor's lyrics writing in universities now. Thanks for your reaction.

‘It feels like a soul exploration melodically’ Taylor’s talent in a nutshell

There's so much more!!! In my opinion, the 2nd half of her most recent record (TPD), the anthology, has some of her best writing EVER. The Prophecy, How did it End, Cassandra...magic. Then there's Evermore, Folklore...can't wait!!! Get going on those 🤗

Her rabbit hole is deep…so deep you won’t be able to crawl out even if you want to but I will bet my penny, you would not….❤❤❤❤this is just a warning 😂😂

Exile from long pond is excellent. All timme favourite is "All too well" (taylors version) (10 min version) . Watch lyric video before short film so you can fully enjoy the lyrics first!

Love a sad song? Check out "loml" (that's L-O-M-L) from the recent album "The Tortured Poets Department" I think it's the saddest song I've ever heard, and it's absolutely gorgeous. The gentleman in the leather jacket is Jack Antonoff. He has been producing and co-writing with Taylor for several albums now. He is also the founder of the band "Bleachers." The other gentleman with the longer hair is Aaron Dessner. This is the first album on which he and Taylor collaborated, but he has continued to produce and co-write with her since. He is also in the band "The National." Taylor does not mess around with her lyrics. We'll never truly know the full meaning, but she makes it so that you can really interpret it in a way that makes it relatable to just about everyone. Her pen game is STRONG. Amazing wordplay, unmatched use of simile and metaphor. She truly is a poet.

Taylor is a multi instrumentalists who writes all her own songs (either alone or with co-writers) and directs her own videos. She's worked so hard on her voice, it's unrecognisable from where she started and she's one of the few who sounds better live. As you hear more you'll realise she also a multi genre artist. Check out Intro/Ready for it and Don't Blame Me live from the Reputation Tour. For more folk/heartbreak listen to Exile. For her country storytelling I love No Body No Crime, but really if I list the TS songs I can't live without it would be way over 100 long! Enjoy the rabbit hole!

One of my top favorite songs from her, thank you for doing this reaction 🙏💗 Her tears ricochet is the consequences of her lifetime ex-record label friend Scott Borchetta, the pain he caused her by selling her work behind her back to someone she disliked for 300 millions... That's what led her to re-record all of her records !!! That's a MAJOR tears ricochet right there 💗💗💗 "Watch what I'll do with those tears" lol You should listen to the original track on the album, there's a beautiful building up beat to it

Great reaction - I love watching new Swifties come into being. Everything from Folklore and the stripped down Long Pond Studio Sessions performances is beautiful, but My Tears Ricochet is definitely my personal favorite. It was inspired by the debacle over Taylor’s masters being sold to Scooter Braun and the dissolution of her relationship with Big Machine Records, the label she basically grew up working with. The line “I can go anywhere I want - anywhere I want, just not home” is one of the song’s many evocative lyrics, because not only was Big Machine her home from the time she was a teenager, the masters debacle was essentially about her life’s work up until 2019 being stolen from her. She’d apparently been clear about how much she wanted to buy them from Scott Borchetta for years, but he chose to sell them to someone who had reportedly bullied Taylor ruthlessly. As an artist you’d probably love her interview with Zane Lowe about the follow-up to Folklore, Evermore - and their conversation about the masters debacle. She spoke in that interview about the emotional impact of separating an artist from their art. The Tortured Poets Department Anthology is my favorite album at this point, but Folklore and The Long Pond Sessions are just phenomenal works. You should definitely check out “Exile”, her first collaboration with Justin Vernon (Bon Iver). But I’m guessing you might really appreciate everything on Folklore, Evermore and TTPD (especially the Anthology) - just for a start. Red (TV), Reputation and Midnights should probably be high on your Swift syllabus as well.

This is one of her best, and she has so many bests... Your attentiveness to the soul of her songs is beautiful.

Thank you for your reaction! I adore when someone takes the time to listen to the lyrics and also apreciate the music. You'll see that she is the queen of songwriting but also the mother f queen of melodies that stuck in your brain. Greetings from Argentina!

It's a beautiful song and she performs it so beautifully here.Glad you are doing the long pond sessions they are magical.Along with Jack A there's Aaron Dessner from the National.,who she works with a lot. Always think theses sessions show just how good a singer she is,and how much emotion she puts in .Oh boy are you in for a treat with Taylor,l think lyrically she's unsurpassed. The song is about her ex manager who sold her music from under her,hence the re recording of her old music. Her sigh at the end of the song breaks me, heartbreaking.

Im so happy to see people finally realizing how amazing she is

One more easter egg. Almost every line contains a reference to her lost albums. Some: We gather here, we line up Weepin' in a sunlit room, and If I'm on fire (I Did Something Bad - reputation), you'll be made of ashes too Even on my worst day, did I deserve, babe All the hell you gave me? 'Cause I loved you, I swear I loved you 'Til my dying day I didn't have it in myself to go with grace (State Of Grace - RED) And you're the hero flying around, saving face (Superman - Speak Now) And if I'm dead to you, why are you at the wake? (Look What You Made Me Do - reputation) Cursing my name (The Way I Love You - Fearless), wishing I stayed (All You Had To Do Was Stay - 1989) Look at how my tears ricochet (Teardrops On My Guitar - Taylor Swift) We gather stones, never knowing what they'll mean, Some to throw, (Ours - Speak Now) some to make a diamond ring (Love Story - Fearless) You know I didn't want to have to haunt you (Haunted - Speak Now) But what a ghostly scene You wear the same jewels that I gave you As you bury me (her lost gold and platinum albums) I didn't have it in myself to go with grace (State Of Grace - RED) 'Cause when I'd fight, you used to tell me I was brave (Change - Fearless) And if I'm dead to you, why are you at the wake? (Look What You Made Me Do - reputation) Cursing my name, wishing I stayed Look at how my tears ricochet And I can go anywhere I want Anywhere I want, just not home And you can aim for my heart (Perfectly Good Heart - Taylor Swift), go for blood (Bad Blood - 1989) But you would still miss me in your bones And I still talk to you when I'm screaming at the sky (Come In With The Rain - Fearless) And when you can't sleep at night (Message In A Bottle - RED) you hear my stolen lullabies I didn't have it in myself to go with grace (State Of Grace - RED) And so the battleships will sink beneath the waves (This Love - 1989) You had to kill me, but it killed you just the same (The story of us - Speak Now) Cursing my name, wishing I stayed You turned into your worst fears (Blank Space - 1989) And you're tossing out blame (Don't Blame Me - reputation), drunk on this pain Crossing out the good years And you're cursing my name, wishing I stayed Look at how my tears ricochet.

You are 100% the type of person that can see past all the haters opinions and recognise the artist that she is. Your comment of some songs being instantly familiar without having been heard before was wonderful. I can tell you're a writer just from the way that you speak. If you like sad songs, I'd recommend: LOML from The Tortured Poets Department, This Is Me Trying from Folklore, Marjorie from Evermore (preferably the lyric video featuring Super 8 film footage of her Grandmother) and Bigger Than The Whole Sky from Midnights. This reaction earned you a sub btw :)

"I understand already why she's a superstar." Heard this song a thousand times and I still cry. She does something to my soul.

Love finding new people reacting to Taylor Swift and realizing she's more than what people make her out to be. I hit subscribe so fast. Looking forward to more of your Taylor Swift future reactions.

Her lyrics are phenomenal. The twists. Most don’t appreciate her .

This song is very personal to her....She loved like a favorite uncle, Scott Borchetta of Big Machine Records...then he stabbed her in the back by selling her music to Scooter Braun without giving her a chance to buy her own music. As you delve into Taylor's music, I think you will discover she is a generational talent...one of the, if not THE, best songwriter/storyteller/singers in the business.

That's Jack Antinof, One of Taylor's best friend and producer,Or involved in her projects.

I highly recommend Taylor’s official lyric videos, especially the latest TTPD ones. Many of them are works of art in their own right - try “Who’s Afraid of Little Old Me” and “loml”. Oh and “thanK you aIMee”

The albums, folklore evermore and tortured poets department have a lot of lyrical things like this very beautiful

Uh oh! I think you’re going to become a Swifties. She is an excellent songwriter. She has always kept journals that help her with being in the moment of a particular moment in her life. Most of her songs are autobiographical, life’s lessons and experiences. Thats what makes her relatable to her audience , it touches their hearts and often describes something that they also have experienced at some point in their lives. Maybe best song till the next album. There are so many amazing songs. Thanks Izzy!

There is nothing I love more than watching someone fall down the Taylor rabbit hole for the first time. Subscribed! 🫶

Taylor Swift's lyrics will GUT you. Great reaction! Look forward to more of these from you ❤

I’d say half her catalogue is like this and half is more fun upbeat pop. She is a lyrical genius!!!

Wow, you've perfectly put into words how her music makes me feel. "instantly that line and that melody, its always been in my head. how have it not heard it before?" the words and melody just always feel so famiiar yet it's the first time you're hearing it. almost like a sense of feeling at home in a place you've been in before.

A comment from a Swiftie said that the Chorus has easter eggs of her 6 stolen albums: She's a Mastermind !!!! 1. …..I didn't have it in myself to go with grace ( Song - State of Grace ) Album: RED 2. …..And you're the hero flying around, saving face ( Song - Superman ) Album: Speak Now 3. …..And if I'm dead to you, why are you at the wake? ( Song - Look What You Made Me Do ) Album: REPUTATION 4. …..Cursing my name, ( Song - The Way I Loved You ) Album: FEARLESS 5. …..wishing I stayed ( Song - All You Had To Do Was Stay ) Album: 1989 6. …..Look at how my tears ricochet ( Song - Teardrops On My Guitar ) Album: Debut - Taylor Swift

I actually dont know how Taylor did it. As a mother I always feel her pain in all her songs.Love you Taylor knowing you are happy now ❤❤.

I’m so happy for your journey down her discography. Her lyricism is incredible. “Carolina” from the motion picture “Where the Crawdads Sing” The whole Folklore album is my favorite. She made Folklore and Evermore during Covid, in home studio. “Exile with Bon Iver” has to be my favorite, followed by “Peace” and “Epiphany”, “Hoax” and “This is Me Trying”. Welcome to the incredible new area of the music industry that we love. If you have any questions, please just ask. If you have any negativity, that’s not a true fan and I apologize in advance if that happens. 97% of us are just happy and proud of Taylor Swift’s accomplishments. Fantastic reaction. New subscriber! 🙋🏼‍♀️🥰

8:24 yes there is! This song is from folklore and the whole album is a masterpiece

I hope you continue to react to Taylor’s songs. I can see how her words struck YOUR heart! Really touching ❤

All of the Long Pond Sessions are great. Listen to So, Long London. It is off of her new album. It is a track 5. All of Taylor's track 5's are the most emotional/vulnerable/personnel songs. This one is about her and her longtime boyfriends breakup. He lived in London. Taylor loves the place London. She has a love song called London Boy about this person. So it is bye to the person and place. All Too Well (Taylor's Version 10 minutes) lyric video has some fantastic lyrics. I think you will love Carolina. It is from the book/movie Where the Crawdads Sing. Taylor read the book several years before talk of it being turned into a movie. She loved the book and when she found out it was going to be turned into a movie she wrote a song for it. The book is set in the 50's so she only used instruments that were made from then or before. She sent it to the producer and director with a note telling them how much she loved the book and got excited when she heard it was being made into a movie. It inspired her to write the song. She hoped they would like it and use it somewhere in the movie. The producer and director said they both burst into tears when they listened to the song. And that a more perfect one could not have been made. Of course it was used. Listen to the 4:29 minute video.

i would highly recommend watching the live performance of this song from the Eras tour. It's one of the emotional highlights of the show.

I think you’d really appreciate This Is Me Trying from the long pond sessions…hearing Taylor’s discussion before the song is quite emotional. She was less open back then about how she relates to the perspectives in the song, but she’s discussed suicidal ideation & coping with alcohol even more since then. These are topics she explores in her art, but *understandably* doesn’t really want to be a public discussion (esp in the media) when it comes to her career

I haven’t heard thus version of this my favourite song, love your calm expression of listening to her. Very empowering emotions that we’ve pretty much all felt. You said it, she paints the picture so so well. Felt the heartache. TS is incredible! Thanks for sharing this.💯👍🏼😃🧡🙏🏼

Fun bit of info! Track 5’s to taylor are usually the most heart wrenching or just real songs that she has on the albums. It happened on accident for a few albums, but she leaned into it and now it’s a whole thing about every album’s 5th track

Great reaction. It is so fun to watch people discover and dive into Taylors music. ❤

The thing about Taylor is that she makes music for every taste whether you love fun, catchy pop songs; heartbreaking ballads; deep, introspective indie songs; or even youthful country songs. Her storytelling and lyricism has improved with maturity, but she's had those from the time she was a teenager. In my opinion, she has several songs in contention for the best written lyrics. I would check out All Too Well, the 10 minute version which is also a short film music video, Tolerate It from the Eras Tour, Illicit Affairs from the Eras Tour, and from her new album The Smallest Man Who Ever Lived, How did it End, loml, and I could just keep going with songs from each album. Love seeing you're journey here.

You wear the same jewels that I gave you, while you bury me Referring to her platinum albums that she wrote the songs for that he sold to her enemy

She has a voice of an angel. Soothing and so calm .

It is beautifully written and sung so beautifully.

It's so great to watch someone discover the genius and beauty of Taylor Swift...judging by this reaction I imagine you will really appreciate the albums Folklore and Evermore, they are extraordinary works of art. She is so talented in song writing and she is also a phenomenal performer...the Eras tour film shows her performing 'My Tears Ricochet' (or anything else really!) might be of interest to you. Thanks for your thoughtful reactions I'm really enjoying them.

I am so excited for you. Watching people listen to the way she weaves words with melody and really love it for the first time is one of my favorite things. Art that inspires you to make more art is a beautiful thing.

This is one of her best songs she's ever written

If yu like this….. get ready. Us Swifties got you

Exile from the Long Pond is also a must ❤

Oh seeing you catch all those little moments that are so delectable is fantastic! She has great melodies and superb lyrics that describe so much, and yet so common so popular that everyone can understand. To me the coolest singers are those who master their own instrument, it doesn't have to be the best voice, its how you use it, and she has worked on it every single step of the way, she just gets better. The tightrope she manages to pull this all of is unbelievable: write good music, interesting but that radio plays, be pretty but relatable, give us content but fight people invading your privacy, be generous but be business savvy... etc. You should listen to the album version of this song too, the instrumentation and production give the emotion even more body and ambiance. Honestly cant wait for more of these reactions!!

It's very authentic, This is about a true stuff that happened to Taylor. It hurt her as well, Taylor's label sold her catalog of music 🎵 With out given Taylor the option to buy it, She found out on social media, That is why she had to remake her own music 🎵. Such a very strong and special person.

The guy is Jack Antonoff he has a band called the Bleachers, and he works with Taylor and other stars, the other guy is Aaron Dessner he is in a band called The National, he doesn't sing, but he composes music, which Taylor has used for some of her songs, he also is involved in production. After a while, most Swifties can tell who worked on which song. The jewels she gave Scott Borchetta of Big Machine Records were the albums that went gold, platinum, and diamond, the stolen lullabies are of course her albums (6 of them). Scott refused to sell to her, but instead, he offered her that for every new album she would get one old one back, she walked when her contract was up, she didn't have it in her to go with grace. Taylor helped build his label, he was just starting out as was she. So, he sold to the one person he knew she hated. Great reaction, yes this is one of her best Quill pen songs. She refers to her songs in what kind of pens she would use for different types of songs, she also keeps a notebook of words she wants to use in her songs. And boy has she been using them, the inside joke is that you need a starter kit for folklore and evermore, it's a dictionary. But she has been upping her vocabulary for her last 2 albums, well the last one was a double album so 3 albums. Folklore has a bonus track called "the lakes" I think you would love it. Good luck with your song.

If you liked that, She has SO many songs you will love

Love your reactions! This song is about her music. When her first 6 studio albums were sold without her knowledge and to someone she did not want them sold to. Her music, her words, her art. The lyric, “when you can’t sleep at night, you hear my stolen lullabies” is powerful. She has fought for the right to regain the rights to her words by recording those same albums, and in doing so has also fought for the rights of other artists to do the same. Only one of the many reasons her fans respect her on a level I have never seen with another artist. The Long Pond Sessions are, as you said, magical. The lyrics she weaves together are a tapestry of truth, pain, and damn good storytelling. Happy listening!

THIS is one of the songs that made me a fan.

this is just the tip of the iceberg, I can't wait for you to get into more of long pond! it's worth noting that the studio versions are quite as good if not better -- beautifully full yet understated production throughout

She always paints a picture in my mind w her lyrics and music. Especially how it reflects in my own pain and or love

You’ll love Folklore and Evermore albums then. I reco “exile” with Bon Iver for your next song, from Long Pond Sessions❤

Love me some Taylor reactions!!

The Long Pond Sessions were my introduction to Taylor's non radio music - I am all in now. Exile and This is Me Trying are two others that are excellent on this album, but most of the album, particularly the Long Pond Session version, is wonderful.

Yea! Yes... This is the one that sold me too. Now I'm a huge fan. SWIFTIE MAX! Love this whole sessions! Loved your analysis.

I watched your eyes as the song unfolded, and there was deep understanding and love of music. and then you explained the feelings. followed. As for the song you are working on: play it, sing it, but by god record it as you do (every time - make it a habit), as some drops of magic need to be captured when flowing. I can't wait to hear your song once complete. 🥰

This reaction has made me so giddy. I can’t WAIT for you to hear more from her folklore, evermore and TTPD. But also I. Excited for you to hear some of the songs she wrote when she was in her teens/early 20s as well. She’s been a gifted storyteller since youth. All too Well 10 minute- I’d check out the official lyric first, then the Short Film. (We Swifties will watch both! 😊) Dear John, Holy Ground (BBC1 live version), Love Story- live 1989 is a great version, but different than the original country version. Both are great. She was 17 when she wrote it. So excited for this Taylor journey.

Enjoying ur TS journey, there’s so many additional gems to discover. This woman is a phenomenal communicator: lyrics, melodies, visuals 🔥🫶

She paints the picture and you can see it all! She’s brilliant

Taylor has dipped into so many genres that it's incredible. Its frustrating that some only see her as this bubblegum pop princess but that is what happens when you start your career at 16 I guess. You can tell by the look on her face here that she really still feels this song. Im sure people have mentioned in comments what exactly this song is about... contrary to what some might believe, it's not about a lost lover. But "stolen lullabies" is a giveaway that it was about her stolen music. Folklore and Evermore would be the albums for you.

Thank you for this! It's my favourite of hers and the one I always pull up when people ignorantly criticize her talent. 💚

Taylor’s voice just got better and through the years. It’s so beautiful now.

From what you've mentioned already, it seems like you're at a time in your life that you need to hear Folklore, Evermore, Red TV (aka Taylor's Version) and The Tortured Poets Department. I'm happy to hear her music is inspiring you. She is one of two people I also find inspiring in the sense of who she is at the core and what she puts out into the world. She puts in all the work and effort into everything she does. She's such a visionary artist. Keep watching and delving into her work. You're barely scratching the surface my friend 😉👍🏻

This song is in my all time top 10 Taylor Swift songs. I think it would be impossible to judge anything the best song she has ever written though. There are too many songs in her catalog that provoke deep emotions just like this one.

Just wait until you get to The Great War and/or How Did It End? You sound like a very inspired person and artist, love to hear you dissecting these songs and sharing personal details from your own creative/musician process to the analysis. Such a calming voice and cool set-up as well! You deserve all the subs.

Such a genuine reaction ◡̈ immediate subscribe! Writing is what Taylor does best and there is no shortage of songs like this! I think you’ll love anything off folklore, evermore or tortured poets department

Buddy, If you loved this, you have to listen to “So Long, London”

Instant follow after this, because you get it!! And I can’t wait to watch you discover more. Taylor’s ability to paint pictures and scenes with her lyrics blows me away

long pond sessions are truly wonderful to appreciate the stripped back versions of these folklore songs, which are probably some of her greatest lyrics. This is me trying, Hoax, Exile, Invisible String and The one are my other favourites to suggest. Look forward to more reactions.

Folklore album is a masterpiece ❤

You seem like such an old soul who appreciates true genius. So happy to see like appreciate like. Kudos kind sir

The guy in the cool jacket is Jack Antanoff who has produced a lot of her recent music. He's won a Grammy for producer of the year several times, but he's also her very close friend. In addition, Jack is the lead singer of the band Bleachers. Lana Del Ray is also a close friend of hers. Not surprising that they have some similarities. Yes, there is a lot more stuff like this in her catalogue, particularly in the past few years when she's embraced a more Indie vibe, but the good stuff is always there, right from the beginning.

I would love to see more of your reactions to her long pond studios and TTPD
