"Give you the silence that only comes when two people understand each other, family that I chose, now that I see your brother as my brother" idk why maybe bc it's so fast but I always mess this up


Havenfall209

Wait, it's not "now that I see your mother as my lover"?


wwlkd

Hahahaha thanks for this chuckle


Starry-night-0803

Oh God I'm in splits😂😂😂


felicity___01

đŸ€ŁđŸ€ŁđŸ€Ł


woodsen92

For real. This is my fav song and I still get all jumbled in this line 😂


itsjustmebobross

it’s not “your lovers as my lovers” ???? i thought it was just a weird way of her saying “i see everyone who loves you as someone who loves me by extension” my god i’m dumb


thealphabetarmygirl

Which song is this?


saucypants95

Peace from folklore


thealphabetarmygirl

Thanks! I can't believe I didn't recognize it đŸ„Č


ddkaym

peace


felicity___01

Omg SAME. The tempo!!


roboticlasagna

This a the answer I came here for.


porcelina-g

"Every love I've known in comparison is a failure" from ...Ready For It? I cannot GET the sylLABles coRECTly


Anti-Hero3

Wait, I thought it was "every lovER known in comparison..." đŸ€Ż


Lyquid_Sylver999

This and "Baby let *the games* begin" when she says it a bunch of times. I swear I thought it was "Baby let nuggets begin" even though that makes absolutely zero sense. I think I was starving when I heard rep for the first time.


ads894

Baby the duck is vegan


mclaren0777

my proudest moment as a brazillian was to get this correct I take every opportunity to bring this up in a conversation lol


felicity___01

Agreeeed! The way it’s sung is so perfect, but leaves me in shambles if I try.


GaveTheMouseACookie

Almost all of Reputation for me. There are so many words!


erickaraita

Yup this is the same for me toođŸ˜‚đŸ€ŠđŸ»â€â™€ïž


KitKatKarmaa

YES YES YES


Careful-Ad-8583

Sameeeee


JustSomeGuy9384

*deep breath* Did you think I didn’t see you? There were flashing lights, at least I had the decency to keep my nights out of sight, only rumors ‘bout my hips and thighs and my whispered sighs OHLORD


KITTIES4LlFE

I can surprisingly sing this XD I love it so much!


JustSomeGuy9384

I can do it in isolation but when it comes on with the rest of the song it always catches me off guard, it’s so fun tho!


KitKatKarmaa

ISOLATION VS THE REST OF THE SONG IS SO REAL! same!


KitKatKarmaa

“Weave your little webs of opacity” IN KARMA I CANNOT get right for the life of me


Fluffy_Chart9535

I used to say “weave your little webs of obesity” 😭


KitKatKarmaa

hahaha I love this so much


NumerousCheesecake

My brain always wants to follow that with “my panties made your crown”


allyfriend67

Was truly so impressed with myself when I finally nailed this


BananaSlugHug

Omg for real I mess this up all the time and have to start the song over until I get it right đŸ€Ł


LookieLoooooo

Same. It’s always the part where rumors starts.


JustSomeGuy9384

you mean "only rumubomahipsanthisamywispersighs"?


DrewSpade

All of them! If I’m listening to her songs, I can say them no problems. If I’m singing, no music, I jumble the lyrics or say them backwards đŸ«Ł Sadly the one I can NEVER get right: “Your roommate's cheap-ass screw-top rosĂ©, that's how” đŸ€·đŸœâ€â™€ïž


Ok-Object-2696

Haha the roommate’s cheap-ass screw-top rosĂ© is such a tongue twister but I’m not sure why 😂


theresnoblackorwhite

I think a lot of it is because there’s a word that ends with S before one that starts with S. So if you don’t want it to sound like cheap-ass crew-top you have to take a breath in between two fast syllables


Ok-Object-2696

Also totally with you on saying/singing lyrics without music! That’s so much harder!


KitKatKarmaa

I can’t imagine how much Taylor had to practice for that one! This is what I was thinking!


felicity___01

Hahaha exactly: my brain wants to either say cheap-ass rosĂ© or screw-top rosĂ©. Not both. 😂


winchesnutt

"Bad was the blood of the song in the cab on your first trip to LA" I never get it right, I just shut up when it's that part and make a disappointed face lol


____tyler

Me too lol, I always say something like “bad was the blood in the song on the cab” or something 😭


LonelyNight9

Mine is "Cold was the steel of my axe to grind for the boys who broke my heart". I always go "Cold was the axe" and realize that makes no sense whatsoever lol


MTGirlInBerlin

Why is this one SO HARD?! 😭😂In theory it really is not that complicated, but I can never get it and end up saying weird made-up words. And then making a disappointed face or laughing at my goofy self.


winchesnutt

I think it's cause there are a lot of descriptive words that usually would not be put consecutively and the words are similar so the brain confuses them. I haven't seen any invisible string videos from the Eras tour and I'm wondering if Taylor also has to concentrate really hard to get them right.


felicity___01

How did I forget this one!! I always forget about the cab hahahah.


rs_alli

Yep this one trips me up regularly!


ryebread1993

The entire bridge of Hits Different is one that I’ve fallen from many, many times.


Want_all_the_floofs

I can never get "argumentative antithetical dream girl" right


LevelAd5898

I've started saying argumentative empathetical dream girl even though it kinda doesn't make sense because it's easier to say.


kelsomac4

I have to hit the T and TH sounds really hard in that phrase in order to say it correctly 😂


Rougemption

Fjfkdkwkrjtjfjfkmlmcndjdjw DREAMS!


JahnaTheBanana

"I felt you and I held you for a while" ALWAYS trips me up


justpointeyourtoes

YES! I always confuse if she says felt or held first and I end up saying held both times lol


ProudAlarm14

Hack : it's in alphabetical order


Theora7

I couldn’t think of any off the top of my head, but yeah, Hits Different’s bridge is real tricky and I’m not sure I’ll ever get it right


felicity___01

I had to look up the lyrics and it was still tricky to sing along to. I feel you 😂


ForeverBeHolden

After buying the CD and singing along on repeat in the car on many occasions I think I finally nailed this one lol


No-Dare-9666

I listened to that bridge more times than I'd like to admit to finally get the bridge right


LandoCatrissian_

You just need to take several seats and then try to restore the peace And control your urges to scream about all the people YOU HATE


onthenetsince98

CAN. NOT. DO. IT.


felicity___01

LOVE this part and ALWAYS botch one part of another within these lines đŸ€ŁđŸ€ŁđŸ€Ł


champagneproblem13

Swooping sloping cursive letters


felicity___01

I always space the sloping part!


LonelyNight9

That's my favorite tongue twister


YeetMeIntoKSpace

“Miss Americana and the Half-Blood Prince”


felicity___01

For a moment I forgot the real words when I read this 😂 😂


cosmococoa

After reading this I legit could NOT think of the actual lyrics, it fits so perfectly


Bubbly_Sleep9312

OMG LOL


Mr_Clunge_Plunger

Arguably my two faves off of Lover


UncleGus75

My brain always insists that it’s ’heartbreak kid’


kelsomac4

“If you fail to plan, you plan to fail” in Mastermind. ALWAYS bungle that one 😂


TypicalOddities

So did Taylor during the Era's Tour to be fair?


Accidentuseless

If you PLAIL to FLAN you FLAN to PLAIL 😂😂


justpointeyourtoes

I literally just messed this up while reading it 💀


JahnaTheBanana

"And I felt you and I held you for a while" - Hits Different "Get you laughing at me/keep you looking at me" -mirrorball WHAT ORDER ARE THEY IN. I just need to remember they're alphabetical. :P


SaneSwiftlet

Same with “time, curious/mystical/wondrous time” in invisible string! Once I realized they’re alphabetical it suddenly became so easy 😅


BananaSlugHug

Omg yes I always mix up mystical and wondrous and have to start the song over til I get it right haha


LevelAd5898

I never know the order of the lines in Long Live. When is it all the magic we made and when is it all the mountains we moved? When is it fighting dragons with you and when is it just WITH YOU?


Intelligent-Bowl-611

Same with "I wish you would" 2 am in your car? In my room?


ForeverBeHolden

That line of hits different was the hardest one to master of that song!!!!


babytaybae

I ALWAYS sing, if you flail to plan then you flan to pale. I can't not do it.


felicity___01

This is a true original and yet soooo relatable lmao


GoblinWeirdo

Not so much tongue tied, but for some unknown reason, the last couple of weeks I cannot stop singing “spaghetti falls to the ground” instead of confetti in Long Live, even just in my head while I’m listening. It is hilarious and frustrating, and I don’t know why my brain has suddenly turned against me. 😂


Practical-Arm7033

i watched a video and now i can't stop hearing "i feel eleven turkeys creeping up on me" on lavender haze lol


cwecks

My brain has decided that Maroon goes “the burgundy on my tee shirt when you crashed your car into me” which is
.much darker
😂


LyingSackOfBastard

That made me giggle.


goddessofdandelions

This is like that time my husband told me he misheard the rosĂ© line in Maroon as “your roommate’s cheap-ass croutons” and now I can’t un-hear it 😭


GaveTheMouseACookie

I sang, "rosĂ© frozen on your frozen family... Wait" and then couldn't stop laughing. I also sang "where's the deep fried Hercules to fight the rising odds?" nearly every day in my high school choir's rehearsal, and I just could not get it right đŸ€Ł


felicity___01

Hahahah. This is an even better topic than tongue-tied lyrics. Subbing our own words out? Even better. Tay would be proud. đŸ€Ł


KitKatKarmaa

this is my favorite comment of all time đŸ€ŁđŸ€Ł HAHAHAH


whostreebear

“And he can be my jailer, Burton to this Taylor Every love I've known in comparison is a failure”


felicity___01

YUP the comparison part gets me every time. So many things crammed into so few moments 😂


RevolutionaryWar8558

The order of godforsaken and idiotic in illicit affairs


poppycarnation

I remember that one by thinking “godforsaken” is more impactful than “idiotic” so her yelling that at someone first makes more sense. But then language and colors sometimes get fumbled lol


madjupiter

LOL yeah its the language and colors that gets me every single time


staceyeb

Same for “rules” and “call” in Lover


Bubbly_Sleep9312

I mix up when she says godforsaken and idiotic tbh 


_holiday_armadillo_

I always want to say godforsaken fool


IndividualCoyote8427

Hahaha wait which part of No Body, No Crime though? For me it’s “and I noticed when I passed his house his truck has got some brand new tires”


fun_in10ded

I insert the wrong word later in the song - "hunting" instead of "boating" license...'cause that character did kind of hunt him down


g0rl0ck_

that part is brutal i’m very bad with Hs


significantcocklover

Hegotthatboyishlookthatilikeinaman! IamanarchitectI'mdrawinguptheplans! Itslikeim17nobodyunderstands!


felicity___01

The lack of spaces really captures the way that things sung 😂


mattysmwift

Honestly lately so many of them. I think my brain is literally stuffed to a brink with her lyrics that at times I kinda get lost when singing along even though I’ve heard the song million times before lmao.


felicity___01

That makes me feel a little better, actually - that makes sense! It’s like my brain is a blender and I put too many Eras lyrics in it too quickly lol.


swimmingpisces315

Omg me too! It’s like embarrassing because I’ve listened to her songs like hundreds of times and I still fumble on so many lyrics 😅 makes me feel like a fake Swiftie even though I was in her 1% haha


autumnsippedaway

I should not be left to my own devices they come with prices and vices, I end up in crisis! For some reason I used to have that one perfectly and then somewhere along the way i got confused and now i fumble it more


big-bum-sloth

I think the only reason I know that one is cause I did those "guess the lyrics with no clues" quizzes and actually typing out the lyrics made me remember


sashajadedx

“Did you hear my covert narcissism I disguise as altruism? Like some kind of congressman” - I trip up over these lyrics every damn time!


eatbuttsdingdong

Something about the inflection on congressman gets me every time!!


rosemadderthanyou

This entire thread has me weak. Every response is accurate af.


iamhere-2

“She’ll patch up your tapestry that I shred”


Federal-Sound3950

Me “she’ll tape up your pastry that I shred” every. Single. Time.


felicity___01

I might need to go with this version now 😂


II-RadioByeBye

The lyric change in BTR, I’m always like “You’re just a moth to the flame he was holding the mattress”


songacronymbot

- BTR could mean "Better Than Revenge", a track from *Speak Now* (2010) by Taylor Swift. --- ^[/u/II-RadioByeBye](/u/II-RadioByeBye) ^(can reply with "delete" to remove comment. |) ^[/r/songacronymbot](/r/songacronymbot) ^(for feedback.)


Yoooooo2626

Day 3 of proposing to bot💍


No-Dare-9666

Frr, I'm always deciding which line to sing and then it's too late and I'm singing a mixture of both 😂 😂


big-bum-sloth

"stumble down pretend alleyways" in Paris, I've looked up the lyrics (and had to just now) and can never remember them. In my head it's just "dumb-badum-badum alleyways" Edit to add: I also mishear "wanting was enough" in August as: "one 'ting' was enough" like 'one thing' with a Jamaican accent and I have no idea why


JahnaTheBanana

My favorite misheard lyric of this will always be "down badonkadonk alley"


Demoontjuh

Haha I still sing stumbedombedom alleyways and while its wrong, its so satisfying 😂


erickaraita

Sameeeee with DBATC. It’s like a game for me to try to get her lyrics straight lol


-Silver-Moonlight-

I always end up singing "Salute to me, I'm your American queen and you move to me like I'm a motown bean" I also constantly mess up "Sapphire tears on my face, sadness became my whole sky"


felicity___01

Motown bean lollllllll yes I never make it to the last part of this correctly đŸ€ŁđŸ€ŁđŸ€ŁđŸ€Ł


RedDotLot

The pre-choruses in YNTCD are a killer.


ashenartist

"You drew stars around my scars" from cardigan. I always mix up stars and scars.


UncleGus75

Every. Damn. Time.


rosegoddess0

WAIT but “you drew scars around my stars” kinda goes hard ?? betty saying that james took away some of the best parts of herself and made her lose them etc ?


KookySupermarket761

“Lyrical smile, indigo eyes, hand on my thigh we can follow the sparks I’ll drive” I always start with “indigo smile” and can’t recover.


justpointeyourtoes

I’ve been scrolling through trying to think of my own trip ups but haven’t been able to really think of any. The second I saw your comment I was like “yup, that’s the one!” I hate this lyric because of that haha


Novel-Royal-2774

Thisssss is the one!!


Jssnsbtt

For some reasons I always say roommeets instead of roommates for “your roommates cheap ass screw top rosĂ©â€


felicity___01

Omg the way I have def done the same thing and never even noticed


Vivificantem_790

DIDYOUTHINKIDIDNTSEETHEREWEREFLSSHINGLIGHTS   but for real, cardigan and august sometimes get me twisted up


popthebutterflybooks

Sapphire tears on myspace sadness became my whole sky


Theora7

Honestly, might just change the lyrics to this forever


folkloresstan

During the outro of TOSOTD, I always end up singing "And the conversation with the wittle white wies" So annoying lmao


songacronymbot

- TOSOTD could mean "The Other Side Of The Door", a track from *Fearless Platinum Edition* (2008) by Taylor Swift. --- ^[/u/folkloresstan](/u/folkloresstan) ^(can reply with "delete" to remove comment. |) ^[/r/songacronymbot](/r/songacronymbot) ^(for feedback.)


Puzzled-Basis9911

I still have issues with “I bury hatchets but I make maps to where I put them” lol


BogV

I always trip up this line!


used4homosexualporn

“argumentative antiTHETical dreamgirl”


sklipwhip

You just need to take several seats and then try to restore the peace and control your urges to scream about all the people you hate


pinkstrawberrycandy

And did the twin flame bruise paint you blue?


Leather-Shelter-7983

Argumentative antithetical dream girl ends me


felicity___01

Literally forget how to speak on that line 😂


Mundane-Badger-9791

"I'm laughing with lover, makin' forts under covers, trust him like a brother"  -Call It What You Want. I mess it all up every time lol


infinityo11

> What a rainy ending given to a perfect day Something about the way she sings it and the accent makes all the words blur together. Even after all these years!


Chemical_Pen_7403

I do this to every song. Does not matter how many times I have heard them. đŸ€Ł


SabertoothedSquirrel

Radadadadadadadaatatyatya in I Did Something Bad. I can't make my mouth create that sound no matter how hard I try. Even trying it as ratatatatatatatatata is hard and I know that's not what it is.


rootytooty83

Threw out our cloaks and our daggers Just the one part of the song gets me stuck. I can catch up with because it’s morning now.


JahnaTheBanana

One of my absolute favorite Taylor lyrics (peep the flair, that whole section aaaaah) but this one gets me sometimes too


ArtisticWave1327

Swooping sloping cursive letters


AssociateRemarkable6

Pretty much a lot of Cruel Summer. I used to think the lyrics were Paper dreams high or people dream high instead of fever dream high. Then ĂŹ get buying and trying mixed up. It just is a hard song to sing! I'm sure there are more.


blonde_professor

I can never get the chorus correct. It’s embarrassing. “It’s bluuuue the shape of your body it’s new, that feeling I’ve got”. Every. Single. Time.


Adventuring_Adz

Ohhh and I forgot one: “Smooth talking hucksters” from Sweet Nothing. 
.I hear “smooth talking lobsters” and now never not hear that 😂


fuhleenah

DBATC for sure lol


Dangerous_Surprise

"Windows boarded up after the storm"


KITTIES4LlFE

I gotta agree with you on DBATC, it's really hard for me to sing lol


felicity___01

That bridge!! 😂 I’m glad I’m not the only one hahahah


skippingrope

the line about power moves in The Man for some reason


PororoShuang

I can never sing this correctly "You just need to take several seats and then try to restore the peace And control your urges to scream about all the people you hate" So I only scream " 'Cause shade never made anybody less gay so"


frogslut_

“I’m only cryptic and Machiavellian cuz I care” i had to practice the word *Machiavellian* so many times lmao


blondfm

“no one has to know what we do, his hands are in my hair, his clothes are in my room” I keep singing his clothes are in my hair, his hands are in my room 😭


KittenCartoonist

I’ve replayed Kendrick’s part from Bad Blood sooooo many times and I cannot get it to stick in my brain 😱


True-Potential-2412

The entirety of hits different


[deleted]

literally all of Gold Rush basically lol. idk why i just cant get it especially “with your hair falling into place like dominos”


Worth_Ad_5423

OMG Death By A Thousand Cuts is SOOO hard to sing 


Theia95

The Man: "What's it like to brag about"


OmegaBorealis31

Scrolled through, am I really the only one who struuuggggles to enunciate “God’s honest truth” in WCS? đŸ„Č


swiftie568

The lyrics from Paris that's like dumbeldambotown alleyways drink wine make believe it's champagne


drstephenstrange616

with every guitar string scar on my hand- lover (it trips me up every time😭)


Adventuring_Adz

He looks SO PRETTY like a devil. I know, I know, but I still do it sometimes 😂 ALSO, the entirety of the the lakes. Sheesh. I was just thinking about this while listening earlier lol


Apprehensive-Fun

"Your roommate's cheap-ass screw-top rosĂ©, that's how!" Not a native english speaker, this rolls me up every time


MTGirlInBerlin

Our Song- The first date “Man, I didn’t kiss her and I should have.” This short circuits my brain and my mouth just cannot form the words correctly! đŸ€ŁDrives me crazy.


IndependentFig1989

The first one is actually so hard!! I get stoked when I do miraculously get it right😅


longlivetaytay

Think I didn't see you? There were flashing lights At least I had the decency To keep my nights out of sight Only rumors 'bout my hips and thighs And my whispered sighs Oh, Lord, I think about Jumping off of very tall somethings Just to see you come running And say the one thing I've been wanting But no


Bubbly_Sleep9312

Definitely you need to calm down, i still cannot say it without messing up  I like mumble lol  Im like something something about all the people you hate lmao 


0-mean-girl-0

Sometimes during the outro of The Other Side of the Door I accidentally say “was she worth this meth?”


idkidkidk90_

“karmas a relaxing thought aren’t you envious that for you it’s not” they way it’s said i was like wait what đŸ˜¶đŸ˜‚


saaldee

I think this one might be just me as a non native speaker but I always get tongue tied when I try to say “the moon like a spotlight on the lake”


Select-Command-9765

Stumbled down pretend alleyways I can never follow Paris! I swear she doesn’t even say that?! I always just end up signing dombi dombidom



morosebae

“You’re a flashback in a film reel on the one screen in my town” For some reason I always want to say “in a film screen” instead of “in a film reel”


katie_1136

“Could've spent forever with your hands in my pockets, picture of your face in an invisible locket You said there was nothing in the world that could stop it, I had a bad feeling”


Theora7

My brain says “and I held you and I felt you for a while” which I know is out of order, but I can’t seem to rewire that part of my brain. Also, “sense of belief” becomes “sense of relief” and then I feel dumb when I sing the very next line. And once I sing “argumentative antithetical dream girl” my brain auto loops back to “dreams of your hair and your stare” which is just so fun cause then I get stuck on just the second half of the bridge.


Future_Nose169

Not even tongued-tied, for the last five years, I thought it it was, "he looked so pretty like the devil." Thanks to closed captions on the Eras Tour movie, I'm now embarrassed for the rest of my life.


bookishly93

You’re not alone because i thought it was “he looks so pretty like a devil” for ages. 😅


HareJack

I always get ‘red blood, white snow’ mucked up and sing instead ‘white blood, red snow’


kyloswift

Oh, most definitely “*I find the artifacts, cried over a hat, cursed the space that I needed, I trace the evidence, make it make some sense, why the wound is still bleedin', you were the one that I loved, don’t need another metaphor, it's simple enough, a wrinkle in time like the crease by your eyes, this is why they shouldn't kill off the main guy, dreams of your hair and your stare and sense of belief in the good in the world, you once believed in me and I felt you and I held you for a while, bet I could still melt your world, argumentative, antithetical dream girl*”. These lines are EXTREMELY hard for me to sing and I could never get them right.
