Taylor Swift - ...Ready For It? (Audio) 

This album aged like fine wine.

Remember when everyone got crazy when she released this?

Taylor is a legend. People don't realise that to create each album with such a different theme and to make sure that all the albums released has a complete different mood so that it does not feel monotone , and to keep the audience engaged with the same level of interest in all the albums over the years is really really tough. And she has done that so well.

I will NEVER get tired of her *"IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NAAAAAAAAAAGHT!~"* last chorus! It goes so hard!

I mean reputation broke all records I won't say that this album deserved the Grammys I'd say that Grammys deserved this album

Taylor swift: Are you Ready for it? ME: No im not. Im dead!

ANYONE HERE IN APRIL OF 2024?🎉❤

it's really impressive how she builds tension with this song.. it's really mostly one "chord" for much of the time, particularly in the verses. even the pre-chorus is the same note. it makes the chorus progression so rewarding when it hits.

*Guys , can you imagine how many songs have Taylor written in Quarantine ?*

reputation is probably one of the best album in the history

This song has such an atmospheric feel to it, I feel like I'm walking through an entire world when I listen to this. It's such a perfect way to start the album

reputation to this day still feels like a fever dream, it still feels like the album was just released every time i listen to it

In the middle of night, in my dreams, I will go to Taylor's concert

LYRICS [Verse 1] Knew he was a killer First time that I saw him Wonder how many girls he had loved and left haunted But if he's a ghost then I can be a phantom Holdin' him for ransom Some, some boys are tryin' too hard He don't try at all though Younger than my exes but he act like such a man, so I see nothing better, I keep him forever Like a vendetta-ta [Pre-Chorus] I-I-I see how this is gonna go Touch me, and you'll never be alone I-Island breeze and lights down low No one has to know [Chorus] In the middle of the night, in my dreams You should see the things we do, baby In the middle of the night, in my dreams I know I'm gonna be with you So I take my time (Are you ready for it?) [Verse 2] Me, I was a robber First time that he saw me Stealing hearts and running off and never saying sorry But if I'm a thief then He can join the heist And we'll move to an island-and He can be my jailer Burton to this Taylor Every lover known in comparison is a failure I forget their names now I'm so very tame now Never be the same now, now [Pre-Chorus] I-I-I see how this is gonna go Touch me and you'll never be alone I-Island breeze and lights down low No one has to know (No one has to know) [Chorus] In the middle of the night, in my dreams You should see the things we do, baby In the middle of the night, in my dreams I know I'm gonna be with you So I take my time (Are you ready for it?) [Post-Chorus] Baby, let the games begin Let the games begin Let the games begin Baby, let the games begin Let the games begin Let the games begin [Bridge] I-I-I see how this is gonna go Touch me and you'll never be alone I-Island breeze and lights down low No one has to know [Chorus] In the middle of the night, in my dreams You should see the things we do, baby In the middle of the night, in my dreams I know I'm gonna be with you So I take my time In the middle of the night [Post-Chorus] Baby, let the games begin Let the games begin Let the games begin Baby, let the games begin Let the games begin Let the games begin (Are you ready for it?)

Who is still listening to this song in 2024 😅

Who’s here in 2024?

If you're listening to this still after the folklore then you're a true swiftie

She disappeared for two years and came back with the best comeback album of all time

This song is so addictive. I can't believe it's been 4 years already. I was going crazy for the new album back then and still today. Keep em coming please.

I can’t believe this is the same person who wrote evermore and folklore. What a legend

LYRICS_________ Knew he was a killer First time that I saw him Wonder how many girls he had loved and left haunted But if he's a ghost then I can be a phantom Holdin' him for ransom Some, some boys are tryin' too hard He don't try at all though Younger than my exes but he act like such a man, so I see nothing better, I keep him forever Like a vendetta-ta I-I-I see how this is gonna go Touch me, and you'll never be alone I-Island breeze and lights down low No one has to know In the middle of the night, in my dreams You should see the things we do, baby In the middle of the night, in my dreams I know I'm gonna be with you So I take my time (Are you ready for it?)

Baby, let the games begin Let the games begin Let the games begin (Are you ready for it?)

Y’all don’t understand I just discovered being a Taylor Swift fan and I’m getting to enjoy all of this masterpieces at once

I’m here after Olivia’s story. It brought back memories 😭

Directer: "How savage do you want this song to be?" Taylor: "Yes"

Anyone here in 2024? I’m ready for ttpd lol

Reputation is actually the first CD by Taylor Swift. This is still to this day my favorite album of Taylors. I also remember being in the car hearing her song Look What You Made Me Do for the first time on the radio and I instantly fell in love with this album.

taylor swift is like that one artist we universally pretend to hate in public but bop to for hours on repeat in private

6 years ago and still hits hard? rep is my FAVORITE.

We all need the Taylor's version of this

[Verse 1] Knew he was a killer First time that I saw him Wonder how many girls he had loved and left haunted But if he's a ghost then I can be a phantom Holding him for ransom Some, some boys are trying too hard He don't try at all though Younger than my exes but he act like such a man, so I see nothing better, I keep him forever Like a vendetta-ta [Pre-Chorus] I-I-I see how this is gonna go Touch me, and you'll never be alone I-Island breeze and lights down low No one has to know [Chorus] In the middle of the night, in my dreams You should see the things we do, baby In the middle of the night, in my dreams I know I'm gonna be with you So I take my time (Are you ready for it?) [Verse 2] Me, I was a robber First time that he saw me Stealing hearts and running off and never saying sorry But if I'm a thief then He can join the heist And we'll move to an island He can be my jailer "Why'd you do this, Taylor?" Every lover known in comparison is a failure I forget their names now I'm so very tame now Never be the same now [Pre-Chorus] I-I-I see how this is gonna go Touch me and you'll never be alone I-Island breeze and lights down low No one has to know [Chorus] In the middle of the night, in my dreams You should see the things we do, baby In the middle of the night in my dreams I know I'm gonna be with you So I take my time (Are you ready for it?) (Ooh, are you ready for it?) Post-Chorus] Baby, let the games begin Let the games begin Let the games begin Baby, let the games begin Let the games begin Let the games begin [Bridge] I-I-I see how this is gonna go Touch me and you'll never be alone I-Island breeze and lights down low No one has to know [Chorus] In the middle of the night, in my dreams You should see the things we do, baby In the middle of the night in my dreams I know I'm gonna be with you So I take my time In the middle of the night [Post-Chorus] Baby, let the games begin Let the games begin Let the games begin (Are you ready for it?) Baby, let the games begin Let the games begin Let the games begin (Are you ready for it?)

We didn’t deserve Reputation

The fact that she started the entire album with a throat clear. Blondie was ready to make a statement and a statement she made!

Are you ready for it? This song will and can NEVER get old 🎤

Let the games begin

when she clears her throat at the beginning ♥

In the middle of the night, in my dreams i meet Taylor. Those are my *wildest dreams* .

rep is one of the most iconic albums of all time

Why hasn't anybody mentioned those beautiful high notes?! 2:48 - 3:07 You go Taylor! Keep up the amazing work.

5yrs later and i still adore this song

Reputation will always be the best Era🔥‼️

(Lyrics) Knew he was a killer First time that I saw him Wonder how many girls he had loved and left haunted But if he's a ghost then I can be a phantom Holdin' him for ransom Some, some boys are tryin' too hard He don't try at all though Younger than my exes but he act like such a man, so I see nothing better, I keep him forever Like a vendetta-ta I-I-I see how this is gonna go Touch me, and you'll never be alone I-Island breeze and lights down low No one has to know In the middle of the night, in my dreams You should see the things we do, baby In the middle of the night, in my dreams I know I'm gonna be with you So I take my time (Are you ready for it?) Me, I was a robber First time that he saw me Stealing hearts and running off and never saying sorry But if I'm a thief then He can join the heist And we'll move to an island-and He can be my jailer Burton to this Taylor Every lover known in comparison is a failure I forget their names now I'm so very tame now Never be the same now, now I-I-I see how this is gonna go Touch me and you'll never be alone I-Island breeze and lights down low No one has to know (No one has to know) In the middle of the night, in my dreams You should see the things we do, baby In the middle of the night in my dreams I know I'm gonna be with you So I take my time (Are you ready for it?) (Ooh, are you ready for it?) Baby, let the games begin Let the games begin Let the games begin Baby, let the games begin Let the games begin Let the games begin I-I-I see how this is gonna go Touch me and you'll never be alone I-Island breeze and lights down low No one has to know In the middle of the night, in my dreams You should see the things we do, baby In the middle of the night, in my dreams I know I'm gonna be with you So I take my time In the middle of the night Baby, let the games begin Let the games begin Let the games begin (Are you ready for it?) Baby, let the games begin Let the games begin Let the games begin (Are you ready for it?)

i like the richard burton and elizabeth taylor reference ("burton to this taylor"), it relates to wildest dreams. she said the video for wildest dreams was based on richard and elizabeth's relationship in the 60's. she's still the old taylor, just with a bit of edge. she still finds inspiration in the same things.

This album is a gem

can’t wait for reputation tv!!😫😫

Beat droped harder than my grades

I was so shocked by this song when it was first released and now I'm just obsessed with it.

Don't worry, your not the only person listening to this masterpiece in April 2024

"...Ready For It?"

I was listening to this and then my cousin said this came out when she was my age and I was like wow!! Who’s here in 2024??

Lyrics 🎼🎧 [Verse 1] Knew he was a killer First time that I saw him Wonder how many girls he had loved and left haunted But if he's a ghost then I can be a phantom Holdin' him for ransom Some, some boys are tryin' too hard He don't try at all though Younger than my exes but he act like such a man, so I see nothing better, I keep him forever Like a vendetta-ta [Pre-Chorus] I-I-I see how this is gonna go Touch me, and you'll never be alone I-Island breeze and lights down low No one has to know [Chorus] In the middle of the night, in my dreams You should see the things we do, baby In the middle of the night, in my dreams I know I'm gonna be with you So I take my time (Are you ready for it?)

Baby, let the games begin Let the games begin Let the games begin (Are you ready for it?)

I feel like the chorus is old Taylor's voice, but the whole song is a different style of music. I'm happy she found a way to accent her beautiful voice and switch to a different style of music that is still SUPER catchy

This is my fav album all because this album shows how she is strong and no one can get her down. GO TAYLOR

Dont worry, you’re not the only one listening to this masterpiece of an album in 2023

Lyrics Knew he was a killer first time that I saw him Wonder how many girls he had loved and left haunted But if he's a ghost, then I can be a phantom Holdin' him for ransom Some, some boys are tryin' too hard He don't try at all, though Younger than my exes but he act like such a man, so I see nothing better, I keep him forever Like a vendetta-ta I-I-I see how this is gon' go Touch me and you'll never be alone I-Island breeze and lights down low No one has to know In the middle of the night, in my dreams You should see the things we do, baby In the middle of the night, in my dreams I know I'm gonna be with you So I take my time Are you ready for it?

Baby, let the games begin Let the games begin Let the games begin Are you ready for it?

I love how she clears her throat in the beginning. I never noticed that.

never forget ur roots fr

Reputation isn’t probably one of the best albums in the history, Reputation IS the best album in the history!

I see the old Taylor in the chorus "In the middle of the night, in my dreams You should see the things we do, baby In the middle of the night in my dreams I know I'm gonna be with you So I take my time" That's so sweet lol But I love you Taylor, even old or new

"I Knew You Were Trouble" 2.0. Love it!

I'm currently in my reputation era 🐍🖤

1989 tv was announced, so the only thing missing is reputation, so she must be thinking about re-recording repp 🖤🖤

Not a taylor swift fan but damn if this doesn't have a sick instrumental.

I love how she clears her throat before she starts singing. 😍

Reputation TV is just around the corner, waiting for it to come home!!!

Are you here first time in 2024 if you then like this comment 😊😊❤🎉

Vevo PLEASE Clamp down on fake accounts! I want to read the comments without scrolling through 1000's of fake Taylor accounts sharing affiliate links.

Happy birthday Taylor, you will never know how much you've helped me❤

SHE SLAY WITH HER OWN REPUTATION 💅💅

At first, I really didn't know what to think about this but I listened to in the second time and I'll be honest, I fell in love.

"In the middle of the night, in my dreams...." *CHILLS*

The dark and edgy albums are always the best !

who’s here doing the new years countdown with this?

I love how she just casually clears her throat in the beginning without cutting it out

REPUTATION IS SO PROMISING

If you are listening to this as of 12-17-23 you are a true swiftie!

REP TV AT GRAMMYS TONIGHT???

if you are listening this after Evermore you are a freakin legend

(NOT 100% CORRECT, JUST BECAUSE I WANT TO SING ALONG.

Can not wait till Taylor’s version 👍

Don’t blame and ready for it are my fav from reputation

THEORY: this song is from the robber taylor (from look what you made me do music video) and the whole album is like behind the scenes of her life during different times of her life. each character shown at the end of the look what you made me do has there own song. EVIDENCE: there was 15 taylors i the final scene of the look what you made me do video and 15 tracks in the album. the one on the plane represents the look what you made me do and this song represents the robber taylor since one of the verses talked about her being a robber. SO: this album is like the irl taylor when all the drama was happening behind the scenes and it's showing her real reputation not the one that was shown in her music. AGAIN: this is just a theory so no hate please it was just an idea of that happened and so far this album is really good❤️❤️

This is like remix of the old and new Taylor. Cant wait for acoustic/live version.

AHHHHHHH SHES RERECORDING REPUTATION ALBUM 😻😻😻😻😻😻😻😻😻😻😻😻😻😻

WHO'S HERE??

when she released LWYMMD i thought she will turn into smth bad, after listening to Reputation on repeat I realised she would never betray her swifties

This is like wildest dreams pt.2 and I love it

To the person who is writing my life, feel free to let me meet Taylor Swift and become her bestie

Ok but who’s turning this on at 11:58:43 so the beat drops at midnight on New Years and then immediately checking if rep tv came out 🤡

Taylor swift dropping songs like no tomorrow

I feel like this is the perfect song because it sounds like her old sound with a nice twist to it.

If you are listening to this after midnights came out you are a legend

Kaz Brekker owns this song. I don’t make the rules

She needs to release a music video already 😩

I remember in 2017 when I hated her album but now I listen to it every day. Reputation was so underrated

The world is not ready for ready for it taylor's version 😭

I'm ready for Taylor's version

taylor rapping omg

My favorite part is *in* *the* *middle* *of* *the* *night* *in* *my* *dreams* *I* *know* *I'm* *gonna* *be* *with* *you* *So* *I* *take* *my* *time* Fabulous
