All the songs related to Joe.
When my boyfriend and I started dating, I instantly dedicated a lot of the love songs from reputation, Lover, and folkmore to him. I adored the blue and gold imagery, the quiet soft love, all of it.
And then TTPD came out and we learnt all her songs didn't even fucking matter cuz at least half of them are her cheating on Joe for Ratty Healy. I've managed to separate that association cuz I still want to retain that feeling of dedicating those songs to my wonderful darling boyfriend but...
Ugh. Taylor, what the fuck.
Exactly the same.
My husband is also called Joe, even the initial of his middle name is the same and we met around the same time TS allegedly first met Joe.
My husband also has a very similar vibe to Joe Alwyn, with piercing blue eyes, chill, no ego, not flashy, very empathetic and kind, etc. So I naturally got so attached to her music about and written with Joe. Couldn't get any more relatable and it was when she started dating Joe Alwyn that I started really liking her music.
It breaks my heart I can't listen to all those love songs the same way anymore...like a big chunk of our beautiful memory got ripped away. I hate her so much for what she did with the playlists, her treatment of Joe and his people, and ofc TTPD and all the performance that came with it.
I haven't even known my boyfriend for half as long as Taylor knew Joe - or you with your husband - but it is such a *visceral* feeling of aversion, I can't even š
But about your husband, my boyfriend is similar too! Wonderfully sweet and no nonsense plus no ego whatsoever. I'm glad you married your Joe, I'm really confident about mine.
I'm refusing to believe that **reputation** is anything tainted by the rat, so I'm safe there. I was mortified about *cardigan* and *Need* tho - I can barely look at them anymore.
I remember saying this about TTPTSD a long time ago: leave our Joes alone.
All Too Well (either version but especially the 10 minute one.)
To me, it's her best in her discography but I find it SO WEIRD that she wrote her most heart wrenching ballad about a guy she dated for 3 months. It's just so so cringe to me now that I'm not a fan. 3 months is pathetically short and barely worth mentioning.
āYou kept me like a secret but I kept you like an oathā goes so hard ā but for a 3 month fling? Miss girl, the other day I struggled to remember the *name* of a dude I casually dated for 3 months a couple years back. Like. Let it go.
I used to think 1989 was a near flawless album. But upon the release of TāsV, I realize that the album is entirely top-heavy with all of the bangers at the very beginning then the rest being nothing but filler.
The fact is that TTPD was so bad that I deleted every single song I had in Apple Music, even the ones I paid for 10 yrs ago. That album made me retroactively despised everything sheās ever created.
All Too Well. The ten minute version and that ridiculous short film completely ruined it. Not to mention her saying absolutely nada when her psycho brood went after Jake Gyllenhaal ten years after they dated.
I usually don't regret ever liking a song. A song might have been good at a time even if i don't like it anymore. Our tastes will change over time.
I do, however, cringe at TTPD. It came out at a weird timing for me, so when the album came out, there's some songs that were relatable that, now that I've got it out of my system, feel absolutely cringe. There are some songs that make me feel like I might as well just curl up in embarassment and die if I hear them one more time. I can't go anywhere this album now, except for a couple songs I still like.
I stopped listening to her right before Tortured Poets came out.
Heard almost only bad things about the album, almost making it seem guilty as sin to like it.
For me itās the Midnights album. I realized how boring it was after attending the eras tour. I thought I liked it. I guess I was just trying to be part of the herd cos my swiftier friend really loved it.
You belong with me is no longer enjoyable as well. I have positioned it as a song for the āpick-mesā.
It's Better Than Revenge and You Belong With Me for me. I'm a much, much better feminist these days.
I will say that I believe Taylor has changed the lyrics to the first one for when she performs which is definitely the right decision.
ETA: Sorry, I forgot Fifteen. I know the girl it's based on agreed to it being released but I feel like it's a step too far in over sharing someone else's heartbreak.
I Bet You Think About Me. I love country songs in general, and that song is kind of country, so I loved it. I knew it was kind of a petty song. She's singing about how she's a poor girl raised on a farm and got treated badly by her now ex-boyfriend, who is a rich guy, "grew up in a silver spoon, gated community, glamorous shiny bright Beverly Hills." I wasn't into her lore or whoever she's dating, so I love the song for the song and the music, but later I found out that it's (presumably) about Jake Gyllenhaal. I just thought it's a whole another lever of petty, and the pettiness in the song is basically just "you're rich and I'm not, and you hurt little old farm girl me." I really regretted it.
Mmm champagne problems, maroon, anything from reputationā¦ didnāt really like 1989 and midnights I didnāt really like.
I like I can fix him ironically.
Honestly a lot of her speak now, red and fearless albums for me are covered in nostalgia. So itās hard to judge. I still like the concept of Betty/ cardigan ect
I guess this isnāt the same thing but āBigger than the Whole Skyā really comforted me after my miscarriage. Now I listen to it and it just doesnāt bring the same feelings anymore after learning about all the Taylor Swift stuff
Renegade. I liked it, I felt like it was sympathising with a depressed person. English is not my first language so I felt like that song was much more sensitive to someoneās problems. It was only after I started seeing peoples reviews and opinions on it that I realised I had misunderstood it. Itās a shameful song.

Me too! I grew up with her music but I loved it the most during Lover Era because I was falling in love with my fiancƩ. I had gone through a few young love/teen drama feels like dying type of situationships and for the first time I felt like I had real stable and normal relation and felt like she was in that phase too. That she understood that love was real and sometimes difficult but it was beautiful and peaceful. We were at the time long distance (he was in Portugual studying and I was in Brazil) so we got tickest to Lover Fest as a sing that when he came home we would still be together and going to the show. We are still happy and getting married but I traded my tickets for Eras tour tickest after the pandemic and it just seems that the magic was gone. Between breaking up with Joe, bad albuns, all the pr, variants and literally a fan dying in the week of the consert it just felt to me that I had grown in these past 4 years and she had regressed and there was not a lot there for me anymore because she burned everything that was important. The crazy thing is I am 24 and I can not imagine treating my relationahip of 6 years the way she tretaed Joe and she is so much older than me.
I haven't even graduated uni and I feel 50 times more mature than her.

Sameeee it was like TTPD was so bad it made me hate all of it!

GUILTY AS SIN. I can't believe I used to sing it without knowing it's about jerking off to Matty

The references to jesus christ ruined that song for me. So on the nose.
I just read the lyrics lmaoooooo
