Taylor Swift - Red (Taylor’s version) - out Nov 2021

[Jark]

are we ready to have the conversation about Cardigan being one of her very best songs ever? going into its second winter, it continues to light a fire every time I play it. what an utterly warm hug of a song.

leaving like a father, running like water
and when you are young they assume you know nothing...
but I knew you'd LINGER like a tattoo KISS
knew you'd haunt all of my what-ifs
the smell of smoke would hang around this long
'cos I knew EVERYTHING when I was young
i knew i'd curse you for the longest time
chasing shadows in the grocery line
I knew you'd miss me once the thrill EXPIRED
and you'd be standing in my front porch light
and I knew you'd come back to ME
You'd come back...

I mean aside from the sheer fucking brilliance of this lyric and the urgency of this middle 8/outro moment, this is her best songwriting since Red.

i think folklore is the most important record of her career, in that she was already legendary in popstar terms but it cemented her legend as an artiste.

All Too Well (Taylor's Version) (10 Minute Version) (Sad Girl Autumn Version) Recorded at Long Pond Studios just dropped.

 

[Cerro de Casa]

Shaking and crying.



And yes the video has nearly 40M views after 5 days. Your faves could never.

The "Sad Girl Autumn" thing is a bit too knowing but that is lovely...nae budget, which is appealing; they wrung a lot out of two photos of Aaron Dessner!

 

[Cerro de Casa]

It was rare
I was there
I remember it all too well

 

[Cerro de Casa]

Just between us
Did the love affair maim you too?


Honestly. God.

 

[GNL]

One thing I very much enjoy about this song is that there are some really touching, intimate lyrics, and then there are moments like "back before you lost the only real thing you've ever known" which snaps you straight back to the melodrama of being 21 and thinking you and the guy now ghosting you had a GREAT LOVE FOR THE AGES when really he just wanted a blowjob

May getting dick downed by Jake Gyllenhaal be the most traumatic thing to ever happen to her.

 

[Cerro de Casa]

Fell asleep to RED (TS's version) last night and started my Friday with folklore (lockdown masterpiece) and truly, she is the greatest songwriter of this generation.

 

[octophone]

Red TV is so long you could get a full 8 hours and wake up during Forever Winter...

 

[Jark]

and what a dreamy tune to awaken to

I played Fearless (TV) during a road trip and my friend had the nerve to ask me when it would ever end

I can't see @Iguana 's post. Clearly it's not rewatchable. Or is it from a blocked site?

Oh! Idk. It's a Facebook of a TikTok because I'm too old for pure TikTok

 

[Jark]

this is the best thing I've been subjected to today. (and I listened to 30. twice.)

 

[ZenGiraffe]

Thank you for this, I can use this knowledge to fake having listened to the full song.

"OHMIGODTHESCARF" etc

 

[Cerro de Casa]

And yes I've decided that Red (Taylor's Version) is her Boys For Pele. The parallels!

 

[Diddy]

How do you know it’s Jake Gyllenhall?

Because we’ve done the work, we know

A Swiffer is what Jake Gyllenhaal uses that red scarf for now.

I like my swiffer because its easy to use and cleans quickly and makes the room smell nice after and because I'm a Taylor stan these days and it reminds me of HER

[POP!]

It debuted with 605k in the US in the end.

The 605k includes 369k pure sales, which is phenomenal for any album let alone a re-recording of a 10 year old album.

She is also only the second woman ever to score ten (10) #1 albums. Barbara Streisand was first.

I hope she donates some of the money she's made from this to Moopy to pay for the upkeep of the Taylor Swift forum.
