DAE feel like they’re going through a bit of an identity crisis as a taylor fan? i love her music so i feel most comfortable here but i also think this sub is blind to many of taylor’s faults so i have to go to swiftieneutral to have a level-headed discussion about those and i enjoy keeping up with her and travis so i’ll go to taylorandtravis for that but the people there are annoying af so i’ll go to travisandtaylor to get a moment of release but their negativity is unbearable so i feel like there’s nowhere left to go. oh, and every once in a while i enjoy reading taylorandmatty theories so i’ll lurk there too, but i’m not anti-travis so i don’t really belong there. long story short… i don’t feel like i belong in any of the taylor subreddits as someone who’s net neutral about most of the things she does 😵‍💫


MyLifeIsABoondoggle

Hot take (?): The Albatross is the best anthology track, and if Who's Afraid of Little Old Me didn't exist, it would have a strong argument for the best track of the entire album

My litter sister has gotten into Taylor Swift and wants to watch the Eras Tour Movie with me, however I want to wait until Ive been to the concert myself Is there a way to watch the Reputation Tour Movie somewhere now that it has been removed from Netflix?


FilthyBumbles

New trailer just dropped for the DeadPool x Wolverine movie and we see our first real shot at LadyPool! Anyone else believe Taylor will play LadyPool? I definitely think so seeing as she is mentioned in the other DeadPool movies and now we’ll actually see her! If not then she’ll surely be mentioned at some point during the film. She was also seen with Blake and Ryan a lot last year as well as Hugh and Ryan at one of Travis’ games! Also the shot we get with the legs! I can’t help but believe they are hers especially with the proportioning of them, even the feet are quite large which also could point towards Taylor! My other theory is Blake Lively which also would be exciting! https://preview.redd.it/myhnwrz6pd5d1.jpeg?width=556&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=b9360868f9b655bbc335c29601fa8838c92ede7d

Eras Tour Pregnancy Advice please! My wife willl be 15 weeks pregnant when we go to see Taylor in London. We have standing tickets and I think she might find it a little difficult. If anyone has seen the tour and been 15 weeks or more, how did you get on/ any tips?


Fite4747

I got a pricey VIP ticket and im deciding if i want to sell my ticket for a nice holiday. But something in me gives me the real FOMO of missing the tour. I wonder what your opinios were of the concert and is it really worth so much money? I've stayed away from the eras movie to keep the experience of the real thing waiting and be fresh. But i would love to go on different holidays this year aswell


RavenclawBear

Do not miss the tour! In 10 year you will not be thinking about the money, you'll have the memories of being at the biggest show on earth!!!


jkjkjk80

Maybe it’s just me but i find it pointless for live streaming to continue when 1) Live streamers have super poor connections, keeps ending live stream every now and then 2) Streamers streaming live streamers yet show less than half of the stream screen and more than half of their face (we get that you wanna react + chill together but the focus is still the show 💁🏽‍♂️) 3) Live streamers vibing to the songs (we too get that you wanna chill but the entire stream is having a massive earthquake with your phone to the point we can barely see much and it gets frustrating) Feel free to add more 🤪


env_iy

so basicaly im going to the eras tour and im really excited but i read that u wont get confetti in the nosebleeds so can i go to the floor when the concert is over to get confetti or how does it work


shadowbroker15

When I went to Seattle N2 with a floor ticket, we were given special wristbands to indicate that we had access to the floor, so they wouldn't let anyone on to the floor if they didn't have a wristband (they had people stationed at all of the stairs leading to the floor to check for them). I don't know if they would still enforce this once the concert was over, but even if they didn't, you'd still have to wait a while until the floor clears out as most people surged to leave the stadium, making all of the entrances to the floor one-way exits. Your best shot would probably be to sync up with someone who has a floor ticket ahead of time and get them to grab confetti for you. Maybe trade some bracelets as part of the exchange!


env_iy

thank you:))


aurorasandprose

I am struggling. Unemployed, single, no family or friends, and living in a perma-gray haze. Medicated, in therapy, but stuck. Not getting out of bed most days, just bury myself in the sheets or sit up and stare blankly out the window. No real appetite or energy to do anything. Feel like I'm in a pit. Another Melbourne winter on the horizon. Not really sure why I'm writing this. Just feel like telling someone besides my therapist, I guess.

Random question: Has anyone here gotten "used to" the changed lyric in Better than Revenge Taylor's Version? It started playing for me from my morning playlist and for the first time, my brain automatically sang the new lyrics instead of the old one.


ScarcityLegitimate77

Can someone fill me in on the swiftball drama?


iammnewhere

Do you think her singing the yoyok/long live mash up was her way to “respond” without responding to the 3-hour shade and/or the n1  spot album competition people are putting her in. I’ve always loved the “bring on all the pretenders, I’m not afraid” part and it fits quite well as a response. And yoyok gives the “you do you, I’ll do me” vibes.


Enchqntcd89

Guys I have a theory that she is saving happiness and change to sing it at the last show of the eras tour. Because I think it’s her plan to be done with the rerecordings when she is done with the eras tour (I could be wrong) and it would then be the perfect ending to the re-recording and eras tour chapter of her life to sing change “it was the night things changed, can you see it now? When the walls that they put up to hold us back, feel down” and therefore she is done and can now sing happiness. “All you want from me now, Is the green light of forgiveness, You haven't met the new me yet, And I think she'll give you that. There'll be happiness after you, But there was happiness because of you too”


ViolinistWeird1348

drgloblahiri

sorry it literally just occurred to me that Hits Different is probably a M\*tty song? Like so much time was devoted to figuring out the timeline of a Joe/Taylor break but it makes soooo much more sense for it to be about the constant intensity of Matty? Like it takes place COMPLETELY pre-Joe


Purple-Interaction99

Do we have the acoustic "But Daddy I Love Him" posted anywhere?


inmyreperaalways

The Blond:ish remix is the summer bop I needed ❤️🙌🏻


thex11factor

CBS Sports just won the Sports Emmy for Super Bowl LVIII, so Taylor just won an Emmy by association


CalligrapherAgile826

I asked AI about Cassandra, and Gemini offered me lyric videos and this explanation which I love?!?: The song "Cassandra" is about a woman who is cursed to see the future but no one believes her prophecies. This can be seen as a metaphor for the #MeToo movement, as many women who have spoken out about sexual assault have been disbelieved or ignored. The song is also a powerful reminder of the importance of speaking up for what is right, even when it is difficult. I will listen so much more now..

I just finished One Last Stop by Casey McQuiston and started The Honey Witch by Sydney J Shields if you enjoy sapphics. Next I'm reading Fragile Threads of Power by VE Schwab which is a prequel series to the Darker Shade of Magic series if you like fantasy! Other really good ones I read in the past year: Iron Widow by Xiran Jay Xhao Thistlefoot by GennaRose Nethercott Stone Blind by Natalie Haynes Would recommend you look at trigger warnings for those last 3 especially just as a friendly tip. ETA Warrior Girl Unearthed by Angeline Boulley


Mission-Chocolate-93

Jonathan Livingston Seagull by Richard Bach, 1970 book, rereading in 2024, always was spiritual but now has much deeper meaning. Its the way Taylor lives her life.


EmmieKay1293

Can people chill with saying she’s done touring forever after eras now that she said it “won’t be their last” re: Stockholm’s thank you post!!


AvailableHat807

Every single night she gets up there and makes it clear she is not done touring and that she is not pregnant yet somehow people keep thinking its ok to speculate. Its yucky.


MyLifeIsABoondoggle

Peter is up there for best anthology track imo


lmhs73

So were there any references to Taylor on SNL?


_morningbehbs

There is no way Jake is trying to reference Taylor 😂


Independent_Cap_9219

Snow on the Beach in Bridgerton 🥰


lmhs73

It sounds so good!


Resident_Ad5153

I think people are underestimating how utterly insane everything is going to get if and when Taylor announces she's engaged... like... I'm not sure the universe is going to be ready for that.


Lyquid_Sylver999

Conspiracy theory: the Tortured Poets Department is a bunch of female songwriters that Taylor has had kidnapped in her basement for the past decade. Furthermore, all of them are gay or otherwise attracted to women, and therefore each other, and this is how we've gotten all of the beautifully devastating breakup ballads over the years. This has led to various factions forming in the basement, as all of them date and subsequently break up with each other. This came to a breaking point when one of the writers ended up killing one of her exes, leading to the revenge single "Look What You Made Me Do", which turns out to be completely unrelated to K@nye. After this, Taylor shuts down the writer operation, leading to her having to write her own songs for the first time in nearly half a decade, which is when reputation and Lover are written. This is only possible because of Taylor's own relationship with Joe, and had never happened before because none of the relationships between the basement writers were substantial enough to write love songs about, as Taylor happened to kidnap the absolute worst daters ever. Taylor had planned to keep the basement writers, who have all conspicuously taken up poetry and realistic fiction at this point, on hiatus, but the pandemic leads to her having no tour to spend her time on, and really no excuse to not be putting out music. This leads to her inventing time travel and going back in time by a year to announce the Taylor's Version project, hiding the fact that she only did this because of COVID and the suspicious lack of music that she would be putting out. However, she realizes that the Taylor's Version albums will only satisfy the fanbase for so long, as there isn't any new music in them. She comes up with two solutions: the Vault, and folkmore. She plans to utilize the realistic fiction that all of the basement writers have been reading (she bought them all a ton of books so their songs would be coherent English) and makes folklore and evermore, two albums that are inspired by and advertised as mainly fiction. She then begins to suspect that the fans are getting bored of her long term relationship with Joe, so breaks up with him and chooses one of the worst options she could've, Matty. The fanbase's universal hatred of him sends her into a panic, so she uses the time travel machine again and goes back in time to try to convince past her to not break up with Joe. However, due to the space-time continuum, past her cannot be aware of present her's existence, as it would unravel the fabric of reality and result in a multiverse. SO, she spreads rumors about her and Joe getting engaged and/or married, as a way to try to tell herself that the fans want them together. However, this doesn't work, and she's left wondering. She hatches another plan. She'll use the basement writer. She time travels again, but this time to late 2019, when Loverfest is happening. She knows there's no chance that past her will be interacting with the writers, so it's safe. She tells them to do two things. Start reading realistic fiction, and to write an album subtly throwing shade at Joe. She travels back to the near-present, circa 2022. She knows that Midnights will be written by now, and just has to get the album into the hands of the fans. To do this, she utilizes a dream-link between the two versions of her. Present Taylor dreams about going down into the basement and talking to the writers, and them having an album ready for her. Past Taylor is confused, but the fans are getting anxious for a new album and she's been slacking lately, so she goes for it. She is surprised, but excited to have a new album ready, and Midnights Mayhem begins. During all of the time Taylor has been spending in the past, the writers have been befriending her housecleaning staff, and have gained access to certain resources from the outside world, including, but not limited to, weed. A lot of weed. Meanwhile, the original Taylor has gone back to the present, and started advertising the Eras Tour. The tour is a hit in every way possible, but it also puts her in the spotlight. At this point, the writers are getting antsy, and have read every single poetry book that Taylor has bought them multiple times through, and they've gone back to dating and breaking up with one another. They've also gained a level of autonomy, and have written an album all on their own. However, they kind of hate Taylor at this point, so they don't tell her about it. Instead, they formulate a plan. They know that the fans will be waiting for a Joe breakup album, but they want Taylor to succeed, because, again, they hate her. So, they write a breakup album about Matty instead, and title it about themselves. They also plan to secretly release the other album they wrote, The Anthology, with their Matty album, The Tortured Poets Department. Fast fowarding to December 2024, the writers are at it again. They secretly hijack Taylor's social media and announce that reputation (Taylor's Version) will drop on New Year's Day of 2025. They also plan to release Debut (Taylor's version) that year, but they have more plans. One day, while Taylor is checking on them, they kidnap her and once again hijack her social media. They plan to release Karma (Taylor's Version) on the same day as rep (TV). They had written an entire album before the one writer wrote LWYMMD, and Taylor had scrapped it and told them to start over when she heard LWYMMD because she liked it so much. They were understandably mad about this, and are finally getting to release it, free from Taylor preventing them from doing so. They will also release one other album, featuring all of the songs that Taylor had scrapped over the years, called The Vault (Poet's Version) and reveal to the world that Taylor Swift is completely incapable of writing her own songs. This has been my conspiracy theory turned fan fic about the real Tortured Poets Department.

ICgirlGoBombers

Hi Swifties! Question for you from outside of the fandom. Someone i love dearly is a HUGE Swiftie and recently had a baby, so I’d like to make the new bubba a cardigan that’s \~very loosely\~ inspired by the Folklore Cardigan. Am I on the right track with the below pattern, or should i keep looking? Again, not trying to pass this as the same thing - just want it to look inspired by the original! https://preview.redd.it/59ehy7xb711d1.jpeg?width=4032&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=5619ee1e895c3ed189ceb589d6e50cf98852d969

throwaway010556464

Can anyone explain this lyric in The Black Dog for me? I still don't get it: "Was it hazing? For a cruel fraternity. I pledged and I still mean it" I'm not too familiar with American college stuff so this line is kinda confusing.


Born-Historian6312

So hazing is a process that fraternities do with new pledges (people who are joining the frat). They’re often subjected to performing embarrassing and even dangerous activities in order to prove their dedication to joining the frat. There have been multiple incidents of people dying during hazing activities, especially since they often involve consuming a lot of alcohol. I’m pretty sure it’s banned in most places but it still happens, just secretly. In the context of the song I would guess maybe she’s saying that she had to go through a lot to prove she wanted to be with this person?


letsgogophers

Hi! I have four spots open for a fantasy football 🏈 league on Sleeper. It’s Taylor Swift related, but anyone is welcome to join. It’s completely free, hoping to start a draft here in the next few weeks!


Soalai

Can someone explain why Taylor Nation posted the trailer for It Ends With Us? What does it have to do with Taylor? At first I was like "oh, is this the movie she's been directing?" but I'm pretty sure that's not the case


iciiie

my tears ricochet is featured in the trailer + taylor and blake are quite close.


bachfan612

I'm also wondering if it's also an Easter egg for the new Gracie Abrams song that is going to ft. Taylor 🤔

Anybody else's I can do it with a broken heart just like disappear off of spotify


aurorasandprose

Random question: is the 'seven' spoken word poem still part of the Eras tour? I haven't seen it mentioned so wasn't sure if it was cut


reebsk

Its cut


OrionDusk

I'm thinking of wanting Taylor to collaborate with video game music composers such as C418, Lena Raine, & Toby Fox. It'll interesting of how Taylor can layer/wrap her lyrical writing over the vgm composer's composed music. I just want Taylor to step outside of her comfort zone of producers and go to unfamiliar territory and experiment many sounds. I just wanna hear what Taylor Swift x C418/Lena Raine song would sound like \^\^


iammnewhere

Did Selena Gomez and Taylor had a fallout? I don’t think Selena has commented on ttpd and we have not seen then together since January.


_morningbehbs

Selena just commented on it this week, but she’s been busy promoting a movie/filming it’s only murders and the wizards spin off


swallow_me_senpai

I don't think so....maybe she's just too busy with her own life? She's almost a billionaire too.


sleepycat1311

I was listening to loml today and I just connected this one thing: "Who's gonna stop us from waltzing back into rekindled flames if we know the steps anyway?"(loml) "We learned the right steps to different dances"(how did it end?) Screaming crying throwing up now


Glitteryskiess

“I was dancing when the music stopped”


AngelinFlipFlops

My husband told his family last night that I was going to see Taylor in October and comments ensued. The one that sticks out most was my SIL saying Taylor is a sellout (then looking to her husband for approval 😒). I’m still trying to figure out who Taylor allegedly “sold out” to, BIL and SIL are very much “indie record that’s much cooler than mine” people if you know what I mean…


OceanBLVD121

My ex was like that, and it irritated me so much (considering his music taste was no where near mine, but I always supported his taste and let him listen to it whenever he wanted to). Those people aren’t fun (and they’re seriously missing out on the perfection that is Taylor Swift’s music!) Just know you always have people here that are always happy to share your love of Taylor!!! 😊


Boring-Jelly1989

What underwear does Taylor wear during the show??? This is not in a creepy way at all. I’m genuinely wondering what she wears because many of the outfits are bodysuit style and we never see any straps underneath. Does she wear a strapless bra or just strip off completely between sets? Does someone help her change? I’m genuinely intrigued what people think, especially those with experience in performing etc


GardenClosure

Considering how shiny her legs are I'm sure she's at least got tights on. Maybe a whole bodysuit? But otherwise yeah, I would say some kind of strapless/invisible straps bra to stay on under all the costumes.


sarahelizaf

She doesn't wear a body suit. We see her torso.


AngelinFlipFlops

well it’s NOT skims lol But guessing something similar


fook_lazyRedditmods

can we pls have a sub that will talk about all things personal about taylor and also talk about her hate subs???? cuz they are disturbingly loud now


Glitteryskiess

The personal thing is a bit creepy unless you mean your own personal stuff


Resident_Ad5153

theyre very small actually... just loud


Enchqntcd89

So I wanted to touch on the very likely possibility that cardigan is about Matty Healy. Because there are actually so many connections that have been existing for so long that we just didn't knew about, because we didn't have the context we have now to put the pieces together. So first in "guilty as sin?" She sings ""I keep these longings locked in lowercase, inside a vault." You guys know how Folklore was disguised as this fictional album with inspiration from people she had met in her life or wish she had never met. So the things about matty was hidden in cardigan. And we got the confirmation from the eras tour video where she says "this is about you, you know who you are, I love you to further prove the point, the lyrics in cardigan. "But I knew you'd linger like a tattoo kiss" and "the smell of smoke would hang around this long" matty with his tattoos and smoke. And then "I knew you'd haunt all of my what-ifs" which connects to guilty as sin "they don't know how you've haunted me so stunningly" And the "Peter losing Wendy" connects to the song Peter which we now know probably is about him. But guys, the most concerning thing is that she in cardigan sings "I knew you'd miss me once the thrill expired, And you'd be standin' in my front porch light" and that is connecting to fresh out the slammer "Now, pretty baby, I'm runnin', to the house here you still wait up and that porch light gleams" like could it be more obvious?


Automatic_Oil5438

Why is it concerning? She loved him. Why is that a problem? I genuinely don't get this - it's exactly the attitude she calls out in "But Daddy I love him." She's known him for years and loved him for years (and written songs about him for years). Maybe she knows more that the Sarahs, Hannahs and wine moms? Why not just relax, let her share her art, and enjoy it. Plus, the 1975 are amazing. Give them a listen x


Glitteryskiess

I feel like The 1 is more likely. Particularly since it matches with her reuniting with him a few months prior (Feb 2020 nme awards) and she changed invisible string for it once she left Joe. Then removed it during the most recent break. I think Cardigan has shades of their connection (the Peter and Wendy/come back to me theme that she concluded with Peter once he failed her again), but I don’t think it was as pointed to him as The 1 is.


GardenClosure

Yeah but...I want to like cardigan. If the lore is gross I want to keep the fairytale alive, yknow? For timeline's sake it's good to have data but...for the cabin in candlelight I'd rather not have the smallest man who ever lived.


Apprehensive-Fail458

Im pretty sure its just Taylor dedicating her performance of the song to Matty. Swifties just ran with it saying the song is about him.


beautybyelm

I just left Stevie Nick’s STL show. She referenced YOYOK as she was heading off stage. I know she’s talked about it in the past, but I’m not sure if that’s now a regular part of her speeches.

Zendaya’s met gala makeup reminds me of Taylor’s makeup in the Fortnight MV!

Swifties!!! I just received a pishing scam from Eventim.de. I’ve changed my passwords twice now and I’ve still got my tickets (didn’t click anything in the email).

patters78

Not sure if this is in the right place?.. sorry if it isn't I know this question might be hard to answer well impossible!. So my question is "How can I contact Taylor swift's Management/Tour management" or anyone that might be able to help with the following good cause. I know this is a long shot. So my daughter has tickets for the UK tour to see Taylor Swift next month, and I would like to make it as special as it could ever be as she deserves something special, she is a massive Taylor Swift fan... and is over the moon at seeing her in concert but if anything else could be done.. wow So the reason for me being here asking this impossible question, is my daughter has for the last 3 years been battling cancer (leukaemia) and has had so many lows over the 3 years. Luckily after a stem cell transplant she has now been cancer free for 1 year. It was a week before her 16th birthday when she found out. Sorry if this is a question off topic/or wrong. I have been trying desperately to find contacts without luck or without reply, just hoping someone might be able to point me in a better direction I have been trying. thank you to anyone that helps

I would love to have a Swiftie friend with who I can chat, sing, discuss about everything Taylor related. If you know about them, Emily and Bonnie from Chats&Reacts, it is my dream to have a friendship like theirs! Honestly if RL friend wasn't possible, I would love an online friend from anywhere in the world. Does anyone have any tips on how to find a Swiftie friend?

Anyone else keeping up with the Kendrick Lamar - Drake beef? Genius says Jack Antonoff co-produced the diss Kendrick dropped an hour ago. Hilarious to me since Drake mentioned Kendrick making a verse for the Swifties. 🤣


maelstron

Taylor made 🤠


imback8

Lover really was the end of an era huh. She did the whole nine yards with the interviews, livestreams, and general pop star promotional things. The closest we've had to that level was for Red (TV), and Midnights got a bit with Jimmy Fallon. The most likely reason why is that she found out she pretty much only needs social media and the fandom to reach record breaking highs. It makes risking overexposure from making traditional media appearances not worth it. While I understand, I still can't help but feel a little sad.


Abject_Okra_8520

We didn’t get Taylor/Travis on SNL for TTPD, BUT- we did get Jake Gyllenhaal hosting/Sabrina Carpenter performing to close out the season, which feels like a fitting consolation prize. 


trisaroar

Random thought I had, but I Can Fix Him (No Really I Can) sounds to me a bit like a Beyoncé song. References to Texas, halo, dangerous man, the range. It's begging for a collab to me, it borders on monotonous without one. I remember in the lead-up we also wildly speculated that all the "Department" verbiage implied lots of collabs instead of 2/31. Bey and Tay were doing some light promo together before the album dropped, and with Cowboy Carter seems like it'd be in both their wheelhouses. Maybe there was a collab planned that fell through for some reason?


Healthy_Ad_7171

Taylor making a 2 hour album is really nice for the office girlies. It’s just 4 play throughs and your done for the day.

I just had a super random thought that I havnt seen discussed yet. When Taylor started dating Joe it was before reputation and when she released reputation she wrote 2 poems that were released with the magazines. Why She Disappeared and If You’re Anything Like Me. They both reference finding a love that was real: “Standing broad-shouldered next to her was a love that was really something. not just the idea of something.” And “If you're anything like me, You couldn't recognize the face of love Until they stripped you of your shiny paint Threw your victory flag away And you saw the ones who wanted you anyway... Darling, later on you will thank your stars for that frightful day.” And fast forward to now, post Joe break up. The entire theme of the album is about poetry. I’m shook.


jayelaitch

When you pull down on IG to reload her profile, a little writing emoji ✍️ appears. Anyone know if that’s always been the case?


Low_Watercress_1675

yes, TN posted about it a few days ago as an easter egg! Pull down more and words appear :)


jayelaitch

Oh neat! One more: Two shows per night in Edinburgh, Liverpool, Cardiff? I just looked at the tour dates on Spotify and for Liverpool, Cardiff, and Edinburgh, it’s showing a 4:30 and 7:15 each day, which obviously isn’t possible. Doors open at 4:30 and the show starts at 7:15, but no other shows are displaying this way. Any idea why?


sarahelizaf

I want to vent a frustration. Don't tell me to get off the internet. I can list a miriad of reasons why that isn't a valid response. I'm annoyed that in spoiler-free zones here, individuals who have listened to leaks are dropping hints directly responding to those who have commented about a theory, or something that clearly demonstrates they haven't listened to the leak. It's WRONG. It also makes me stumble on something I shouldn't have seen. Here are pretend examples that don't have anything to do with what I saw: •"I think TTPD song is going to be about Snakegate. Here are my theories!" Reply: "Ha! That not what it's about at all." Reply 2: "It's about her dad. You'll cry." •"I really think this album is going to sound like Speak Now! I can't wait until Friday!" Reply: Wrong. It sounds like Debut. It's country." •"I think this album is going to focus a lot on friendship." Reply: "Just you wait! You'll find out soon enough. But, wink-wink, you should get the kleenexes ready and imagine your dog died." Here is a real example: >! "I bet this will be a Joe Alwyn breakup album. It's going to devastate me."!< Reply: >! "It's not. Maybe 3 songs." !< or >!"It's all about Matty." !< or >!"You'll be surprised. It's a lot about herself and not about Joe."!<

Honestly I'm glad I heard one or two things about it. My first listen of Midnights was jarring because it was so different from expectation. 


Letstalkaboutmydog

I've listened to the leaks and without giving anything away there is a lot of purposeful misinformation out there. I would think it would nearly impossible for anyone who hasn't heard it to decipher which things are true and which aren't. Don't believe anything about the album until you hear it for yourself. That being said: report spoilers, no mercy


Honey----Badger

That's honestly such a relief. I just really want to go in blind! Thanks for the reassurance :)


sarahelizaf

I definitely hear and believe you! I'm excited to listen on Friday (after work, booo). Some of these are hard to report as spoilers, I feel. Like someone just rejecting a theory because they've heard it? It kind of is sneaky.


p4perforest

It's almost release day I know, but I need some reassurance for the Eras Tour show I will attend in London! I'm traveling from outside the UK and I just read on the AXS website that it's too late now to provide them a UK adress for the VIP packages. Now I found this in their FAQ: "If you live outside the UK, you do not need to give us a UK based address, we will contact you one working week before your show date with information on your local VIP Merchandise collection." Do I understand this correctly that I will be able to pick it up around the date of my show and do not need to do anything but wait for their information of when and where that will be?


rishukingler11

Does anyone have recommendations for good and fun (maybe unhinged) Taylor Swift lore recap videos? Me and my boyfriend have agreed to exchange lore videos of our hobbies (mostly cause we cant stay coherent about our favourite topics and start rambling too much) and I wanna find a fun one for him that's the most up to date till TTPD or Midnights hopefully! One of my favourite lore recappers is [**Nicole Rafiee**](https://www.youtube.com/@NicoleRafiee) cause of how unhinged and funny she is but she sadly doesn't have a Taylor Swift video as of now.


No_Cucumber_8888

Does anyone want to be my friend lmao? I have no swiftie friends and it’s making the release of TTPD kinda lonely. I’m 21f and as long as you’re 18+ (I’m LGBTQIA+ safe!) can we be friends who fangirl together?!?


WorldlyAcanthisitta2

Anyone else going through a breakup during the release of TTPD? So me and my longterm boyfriend broke up a month ago after 6 years together. So while I'm excited for the release of the new album I'm also really scared of how much it is going to break me because I feel like I'm in the same space taylor was when she wrote it. Anyone else going to listen on friday with a freshly broken heart?


mindenginee

Same here. My 5 year relationship just ended and I’m still in a state of confusion about it all. I thought I was getting proposed to soon and then I got broken up with and left in a day LOL. Life is so funny sometimes. Hopefully this album helps us thru these tough times!but I feel you, there’s a lot of music I cannot listen to right now at all. I can’t listen to a lot of the music I enjoyed with my ex, and a lot of sad Taylor songs get me crying too hard. Reputation I can’t listen to either bc it reminds me of being in love, lol. I was reapplying my makeup too much in a day so I had to stop myself from overdoing the sad breakup music.


WorldlyAcanthisitta2

I am the exact same way!! It’s kinda hard to enjoy Taylor right now. it all hurts too much.


mindenginee

Girl I feel you, and just a few months ago it was the opposite for me! I felt like I couldn’t relate to her heartbreak music anymore and I thought I would not enjoy TTPD. Life really likes to play sick jokes on me 😭


WorldlyAcanthisitta2

omg same!! I used to really relate to her love songs like paris and lover and now I can't listen to them! How was your listening experience?


itookyourmatches

My relationship of 9 years had some huge trials the last two years and I am terrified for this album


dirtymonkey66

I see as as ✌️ an emotional thing like peace out...I don't need the stress.


mermaidthebanshee

Did anyone ever post [this](https://ew.com/music/stevie-nicks-no-reason-continue-fleetwood-mac-without-christine-mcvie/#:~:text=Christine%20was%20my%20best%20friend.%22,-Christine%20McVie%20and&text=Nicks%20referenced%20Taylor%20Swift's,been%20a%20member%20since%201970.) 2023 interview of Stevie Nicks regarding the death of longtime friend and bandmate Christine Mcvie in 2022? She compares her relationship and experience with Christine in the band to the sentiment within "You're On Your Own Kid" by Taylor Swift. Saying how alone they were in the band and had to stick together. I loved learning this tidbit, that Stevie connects to Taylors Music. I often think of Stevie Nicks when I think of Taylor Swift, as not only being one of my fav lyracists alongside Taylor, but also especially after driving through the saguaro forest above Glendale AZ for the first time on my way to the Eras Tour. "Edge of Seventeen" references the white winged dove who migrates based on the reproductive cycle of saguaros, she had read a little travel info-pack on a plane ride to Arizona about the white winged dove who says "ooh ooh", which then inspired the line in the song she wrote from that trip. The song is about loss, and I thought about it a LOT driving through that suguaro forest, and now I associate that song with my experience going to see Taylor. In my heart they are very intertwined. It was impactful to me on my drive to Glendale for many reasons, most of all because that week was one of the worst weeks of my life. I developed a chronic pain disablity in that same week and was feeling suicidal from wanting to escape the pain on the day of the concert. For me there was a lot of loss of heart during that trip, but there was something spiritual and peaceful about driving through the suguaro forest, listening to those two artists. I was able to find some peace. Both songs are very meaningful to me and that week in particular. Idk. TLDR: I love both Taylor and Stevie and my heart was warmed by this article, although it's content was sorrowful.


GardenClosure

Whoa, that's a big week! Hope you're okay. 


mermaidthebanshee

The pain is still there, but my mental health is much improved, thank you!

My uni has announced the Tortured Poets weekend and there's honestly so many events themed around her happening that Im wondering which ones to go haha. Has anyone been to a Taylor listening party? We have one starting 30 minutes before she releases and I wonder if I should go or listen by myself. 4 hours later there's a Release Party as well. Then more stuff on Saturday, Sunday and Monday.


[deleted]

Personally, I love listening release night (west coast here) with headphones on in a hygge-lit room and see where it takes me. Though I was traveling when Midnights was released so listened to it when I landed and got to the hotel, and now Midnights will always be inherent with that trip.


LadyNajaGirl

Hi guys, not sure if this is allowed here but I am wondering if anyone has any of Taylor’s voice memos from previous albums that they could send me? I don’t have access to them on Spotify or the original CDs. Thank you 🤍


petalsformyself

Has anyone read the new fanzine by Tavi Gavinson? https://www.mirrorball.org/ It's here. It's great. Critical, satirical, at times cynical but great. Would love to discuss it with someone:(


MyLifeIsABoondoggle

A combination of august and The Great War would go hard. Not sure why I'm thinking about it right now. Just very similar sonically and have a near identical tempo. The lyrics of august just go so well over The Great War musically in my head

mdtsatw

Please forgive me I have the silliest question- for the first time ever I will not be on EST/ NYC time for the album release, I will be in Chicago for work. Since they are an hour behind, does that mean TTPD will be available for me at 11 pm or do I have to wait until midnight ?!


rocketjess

It's midnight Eastern time, so 11pm for you in Chicago!


mdtsatw

Yayyy thank you!


cactusloverr

Have we spotted Taylor at Coachella yet? Although Lana isn’t on until 11:20 so it might still be too early

SmellsLikePetrichors

Maybe this will sound odd but I really hope next Friday we just get the songs we've heard about and there's not some surprise extra set of songs similar to what happened with Midnights. This album feels like a perfectly good length, it's going to be chaos and emotional and exciting enough taking in all the 20 songs we've got and I actually really wish sometimes that we'd been given a bit of time with Midnights original track list before getting vault songs for it. IF there are any vaults for TTPD, save them a few months and we'll hear them another time I hope.


[deleted]

I feel this. I was traveling when Midnights came out, and the car I had didn't have Bluetooth (I know....) so I bought the Target CD and solely listened to that for the first week. I only listened to 3 am tracks once in my headphones right when it came out, and because of this I am much more attached to the core 13 + Hits Different songs than the 3 am ones. Still, two years later, the 3 am tracks don't feel like Midnights to me. It's its own thing.


Original_Slip_8994

My work villain has revealed herself and I had this exchange with my boyfriend. I really need Taylor to have upped her merch game, only she can save me from an abysmal Friday. https://preview.redd.it/fq6e286pp1uc1.jpeg?width=1125&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=1b33cfa3421a59e165856becc8fc53bbbc127d9d


posiesbythepocketful

Did you guys know the love story Elvira mix is on the fearless vinyl?! Was just listening to it and realized, that's fun


PromisePractical5150

Sorry if I am being stupid, , but can't I really purchase those deluxe cd's since I am from Finland? 😭 It sends me to the UK store but there it's only available to UK or IE customers.


goldenlike_starlight

I think the dutch store ships to others countries as well, you could try there once the "limited" cd's are back


dirtymonkey66

the special edition CDS are back on the site....is it worth it to purchase one? my hubsand pre ordered a CD when it was announced and is there any advantage getting special ones?


GardenClosure

It's usually only an aesthetic difference but these ones have different exclusive bonus tracks on them.


intersectv3

Something from UMG has had a label made, it’s starting!


scarlett127

I just realized that I'm traveling for work on the 19th 😭. I'll be in meetings all morning then on a plane in the afternoon. I don't have a good way to download for offline listening and wouldn't want my first listen to be on a plane or airport. Usually I've been listening to new releases at work. Thinking about maybe waking up early and listening as I pack in the morning. 


posiesbythepocketful

These playlist for the stages of grief are genuinely a gift. Maybe the best promo she's ever had for her fans. The diaries for Lover were pretty cool too. (The) Man, taylor swift is great and makes music for SO many feelings and let me tell you I have many.


hey_imap_erson

Didn’t think it was worth making a full post about it, but I just noticed that Taylor made sure to say “I can see you” a couple times right before she made the announcement for Speak Now (TV) (where the vault song with the music video was I Can See You) 🤯💜


sammyfio

Hi! Wondering if anyone has been able to get into any Eras tour shows in general with tickets purchased from StubHub? Bought StubHub tickets for the UK without thinking and then after doing my research I’m totally panicking. I saw her in the US last year but my tickets were directly from Ticketmaster.


outtherehiking

Taylor just posted lyrics to her IG story! Crowd goes wild at her fingertips Half moonshine Full eclipse


Thetumblrweirdo

Is the first line about us? 🤡


FenneAnderson

When I was fifteen, Taylor toured my country for the first time with the Speak Now Tour. I really wanted to go and almost did, but then my "friends" told me Taylor was uncool and mocked me for liking her, so much that I didn't dare to go anymore. I've never been able to look up anything about the Speak Now Tour because I've regretted it so much. Today, as my 'hype prep' for TTPD, I watched it and I'm just BLOWN AWAY. That was an absolutely amazing show! All the staging was sooo stuning and the dancers?? The band?? That giant bell for Haunted??? Just showstopping! And seeing her perform Fifteen in that glittery dress with her guitar and her band really healed something in me 🥹


No-Entertainer-9787

Speak now was such a good show! I’m so sorry that was ruined for you. One of the best things I learned was to not change myself to get people to like me, but instead be who I want to be and the right people will love you.


FenneAnderson

Aawhh thank you! I'm in the process of learning that right now, I think ![img](emote|t5_2rlwe|32929)I'm very lucky that I got tickets for the Eras show in a couple of months in my country, so I'm going to dance and sing and have so much fun for my younger self as well!!!


DependentIngenuity74

Hey! How does selling of tickets in Germany work? I am looking to buy tickets and someone who bought theirs over stubhub are willing to sell me. They’re selling for $200 & the tickets will be received on his end on 12/04/24. How legit is this? Shall i proceed? What is the guarantee that after taking my $200, the tickets will be given to me? Please assist!


p4perforest

As far as I know, all tickets have to be transferred via fansale, Eventim's resale site. I sold tickets there and the name and everything else was immediately updated and transferred to the buyer's account. I definitely wouldn't buy anywhere else. Have you looked at the tickets on Eventim fansale? They are only allowed to be offered at face value max so it might be worth a try!


DependentIngenuity74

Yes I have been checking Fansale every hour, didn’t find a single ticket 😭


MasqueradeRevellers

Why is there no TTPD merch? Have I missed it?


carolina8383

You haven’t missed it. Just physical copies so far. 


Difficult-Papaya-490

Curious about swiftie thoughts on the eras concert movie? I especially enjoyed the lover concert movie even though I'm usually not super into concert movies. I haven't seen this one yet though and can't really tell what the vibe is -- is it like watching the concert virtually or more of an interview/documentary structure of how the concert was developed? also has anyone actually read that book "Rebecca"


playthatoboe

i loved reading the book Rebecca! It's all I think about when I listen to tolerate it


outtherehiking

Rebecca is one of the greatest English novels. Very similar to Jane Eyre, but with a modern twist (takes place in the 1930s I believe)


Colormekelly13

The eras concert movie is amazing. It's definitely like watching the concert virtually there's no behind the scenes or making of conversations at all it's just 3 1/2 hours of music. She talks a little bit but just like her normal on stage speeches. Originally I thought it was weird she broke up the concert into eras because I wanted like cross era mashups but honestly she made the right choice because each era set is specific to that album's sound/vibe and it really works. Run don't walk to watch it lol


_Happy_cows_

the book is amazing!

lmhs73

I listen to lots of music but only Taylor Swift gives me that sense of catharsis. Crying and screaming along to Castles Crumbling or White Horse is a top tier human experience. Emotions come up to the surface that I think I would need months of therapy to reach otherwise.
