How has no one noticed this? During BDILH, the dancers do not dance. they simply walk around in patterns the entire song until Taylor sings, fukum, it's over. This is where the song turns to being about Travis and that's when the dancers finally start dancing along with Taylor. She conveys so much with the choreography.

[@Rachierooh]

I am struggling with this whole album at the moment as I am in the middle of a war, and I think I have lost - after 19 years. The pain is horrendous, and Taylor is literally singing my emotions!!

[@ithitsdiffpod]

sending you SO much love. sometimes taylor’s music makes the pain sting a little bit harder when it hits too close to home, but it’s also incredibly therapeutic and healing 🤍🤍🤍

[@ChristineKikiMac]

Hang in there. The thing that Taylor's music does is help us: 1) Remember - we are NOT ALONE (we KNOW the pain) 2) You will survive (use Taylor's music as your compass). You got this. And the lessons learned are invaluable. You will bring your strong, resilient heart to your next adventure. xo

[@Emma_kj3nj]

Oh gosh, I'm so sorry. Which war are you involved in?

[@TimC-ps3re]

The military drumline sounds even better than the album version. So powerful.

[@murphash29]

when it transitions from BDILH to So High School not only do the stadium lights go up on the screen but the stage turns to like a football field.

Most of TTPD is about Matty Healy of the 1975 and nearly ALL visuals from the Fortnite video come straight out of his videos or stage shows. A fact his fans recognized and are not pleased she copied. Name it. Healy did it first. Including marching & dying on stage. Swift loves her Easter Eggs but some are planned dead ends. Had to be hard to admit your romantic, hard headedness cost you so many years. She fell for Healy 10 yrs BEFORE Joe but never got over it. She left due to his heroin issues. How could Joe move on with her? She loved another. i think its in Goodbye London she writes she knows the one call she will make. To others her immediate hook up with Healy was shocking but to the ever romantic Swift, it was long overdue. She writes of Healy looking for pills from a friend of friends. He had lost her again over his drug addictions. Recall Swift said she had to write TTPD for her own existence? Lets be honest. Romantic, naive, YOUNG Swift liked bad boys. Older 33yr old Swift wasnt looking for love but got side swiped by Travis Kelce. I follow his career. Long known he had a crush on her. They BOTH know so many of the same people they'd eventually met. Invisible threads and all. Being a Tight End he just figured out a faster path. Kelce is a great guy & she is lucky to have him. Trustworthy, loving and accepts all she is plus he isn't boring. Despite tabloids or football stereotypes, Kelce is VERY intelligent and a great listener. Imo they are a terrific match. So no link up to the American Revolution. She USED Joe while she licked her Kardashian wounds and wrote some of her best work... so far. Kelce is what she always was looking for.

[@user-tf3je6vi4q]

I agree with most of what you wrote, but I dont think most song is about MH, I think most of the song has both Joe & MH mixed in them. She and MH would never worked & i think both of the new that - but they still wanted to be together for a little biit.

[@ChristineKikiMac]

PS: During "Little Old Me" -- The Tay Roomba with the non-stripper-pole (the white pole she works beautifully) is perfection. I would love to see a "making of eras" movie to meet who collaborated with her on making visions of this musical journey come to life. I'm old enough to remember Truth or Dare (Madonna, circa 1991 - I was 22) and this tour reminds me of how each song is a story threaded into a knock out performance! I can't stop watching. (PS: I'm an author, and a retired stripper (Waikiki: 1987-1996) so that's where "the stripper pole" comment is from (no shade). I've also been pulling out my old poetry from high school (1982-1986) and am a new Swiftie! GenX Swifties Unite! (Cannot WAIT for Scotland!)

[@tamarawyatt9360]

Loved, loved, loved the TTPD set!!!!! Can’t wait to see it this October in New Orleans!!!!!! Love your guys podcasts!!!!!

[@DeliciaChampagne]

Same! 10/27 show@

[@ithitsdiffpod]

new orleans is gonna be amazing!! thanks for watching 🫶🏻

[@joannedevine2473]

Thanks Ladies, I always enjoy getting informed on Swifty Lore from you both! You have an engaging banter.

[@dorimcdowell911]

Her TTPD performance mirrors several 1975/Matty identical imagery & performances... wild seeing side by side! She went for his jugular!

[@RitaBowen1]

I can't wait to see what you girls bring us. I hope you have a wonderful time. I am so so jealous

[@lisamichele4392]

You 2 are awesome thank you ❤️💯💄

[@krissypopp9257]

You girls are so awesome! Can I do anything for your upcoming trip ? I'm totally jealous, but you two deserve this trip!!❤❤

[@deborahlangis2848]

Good job girls.

[@payasofeo69]

Ryan looks like Michelle Monaghan 🥰

[@Ricky48888]

Also, Sandra Bullock, too.

[@AndrewKerr5]

Molly & Ryan. Can’t wait for you to be in Scotland. What show are you lovely people going to? The weather is looking like the Scottish shows may have a spot of rain at the moment, pack something warm and or waterproof as it may only be 17C/63F.

[@GrownupPhan]

That military jacket gives me Napoleon vibes for sure. But for me her energy leading her drummer troops also makes me think of Joan of Arc for some random reason.

[@carlap3933]

LFG!

[@carlap3933]

Great job ladies!

[@ChristineKikiMac]

Fornite's choreography *all of the show, really* is award-winning.

[@lindaglandt5417]

I think you both would look so good with the tall hat's that pick her up it would be classy .your so lucky I love the way you guys bring us so much . Tay love's here fans she shows it in all here hard work life is so hard in the world but with her and the two of you and the team of hers are a blessing Thank you be safe I can't wait for you both to get back and you hant left have the best time .once aging thank you if you get to see her give her a hug for me.or tell her 😘😅❤❤

[@WanitaVanZyl-je2gp]

Quick question- just downloaded swift alerts - can anyone tell me when the mastermind games open for the next show?

[@ithitsdiffpod]

It’s open now for Lisbon N1!

[@mirandabee2323]

Since Jan Ravnik is Slovenian, I always assumed the J is pronounced like a Y, making it more like Yahn than "Sure, Jan."

[@michellededwards]

🤍🖤

[@caraleesirois2426]

I think of the dancers representing the "band" or, the whole Eras crew, that all would have been brought down along with Taylor. They have the white flag and are on the defense. MH actions were the offence and it affected them all.

[@dboyette42]

No ring not gonna happen. People just don't want to have kids. She may not want to give half her stuff to a drunk football player with brain damage.

[@samsolace]

Do you realize how hateful you sound? Or are you always this mean on the daily? You have my pity.

[@lindaamodeo3061]

Yikes

[@PdBrown-ff3li]

Bitter loser.

[@erins2080]

Tell us your life sucks without saying your life sucks !

[@janetwoodford6497]

Don’t be so negative! It sounds like you’re the one with the problem. To bad.
