As a guy let me say to you it’s ok. 😂You can like Taylor and keep your man card

[@joanieovals]

yeah lol literally just relax. it's not that deep

[@MizukiLovesDraco]

Taylor makes it SO difficult to actually dislike her once you start truly approaching her with an open mind. Musically? Phenomenal. Personality? Wonderful. Humor? Unmatched. Work ethic? Extraordinary. Clevereness? Undeniable. It's like every time you try to actually find something to keep you from liking her, it just makes you like her all the more. Trust me, that is the EXACT process I went through for MONTHS before I could admit to myself and others that she is just great all around.

[@kerrisouth]

How do I copy this? May I? Beautifully written. I want to send it to my sister who just makes fun of Taylor. BTW, we are both in our 50s.

[@MizukiLovesDraco]

@@kerrisouth i don't think yt lets people copy comments anymore but you could screenshot?

[@ffreshfields5211]

@@kerrisouth That's kind of funny. I am surprised to hear about a 50 something woman making fun of a younger female. That there arguably lacks some grace. Aren't older women supposed to support and lead the way for younger women and be forgiving? Maybe she secretly wanted in her life what Taylor did or some of the qualities she has, whether it is looks or courage or success or creative outlets or whatever else. Sometimes we mock in others what we seek in ourselves. But as women we learn pretty early on that we are connected and need and deserve each others' support and not to be jealous at all

[@crystaldickson5405]

I am really struggling with people that work so hard to find a reason to not embrace her. Geee

[@Maru8927]

You can see that Allie really likes that song and the meaning that it has to her, she was smiling the whole time that she was explaining to Sebs what it means to her. Really glad that you like it, Folklore for me doesn't have a skip.

[@Violet316]

Taylor told people to sing and dance at the tour film.

[@leilanilopez7832]

And the CEO of AMC said it treat it as if it was a concert lol

[@IvyCowboy]

I appreciated all the people who didn't do that in my theater lol. It was fun to actually get to watch it.

[@Lauren.Wagstaff]

Exactly. Like, so many of us weren’t able to go to the concert. This is this the closest we got to going. She encouraged it. Dance. Sing. Make friendship bracelets. It’s not a narrative film where you need to pay attention to plot.

[@IvyCowboy]

@@Lauren.Wagstaff I think it worked out fine - it really depended on when you went. Opening night and weekends were crazy, weekdays were normal. Best of both worlds.

I am at 64 being a lifelong musician (Trumpet/Vocals) finding she has proved over and over again that she is a true story teller and has the chops to go along with it. She makes you feel something with every song she does and that in itself is a true art.

[@missymariebee]

Taylor Swift herself posted on her social media that singing and dancing is encouraged at the eras tour film. The opening weekend of the movie was truly meant to be just like the concert experience. There were many weeks after you could go were it would have been much quieter in the theater. All throughout the eras tour the crowd would open their flashlight apps during the song Marjorie in honor of Taylors grandmother. And we did it during opening weekend of the movie as well.

[@roxettenicolepcd]

Taylor encouraged everyone to sing and dance on the theaters. She even watched it in a theater and she was jamming to her own concert so nothing wrong with singing and dancing while watching it in a movie theater :)

[@bruzerbites1318]

No offense I get what your saying about the movie concert but thats the closest some will get to see it. You guys can afford to go to the real thing, good for you, most of us cant so please be patient and let them live.

[@lucia-fj6nc]

bro why are you trying so hard to find something you could hate about her 💀 there are very good reasons she is one of the most succesful musicians ever

[@shelleyquitter3484]

She’s a gifted storyteller✨

[@sylviaalford517]

Sorry but she said to sing and dance 🤷‍♀️ judging “40 year old women” who are just having fun is gross. Hate is also a strong word, use it wisely.

[@Cucumberstopickles]

I LOVE Aaron D. He is so creative and so nice. I love their collabs. Every song they do together is amazing. I became a fan of Aaron through his artistry and he rocks a suit with slicked back hair. When you went after his voice & hair, I was like, “OH NO!” Also keep in mind Aaron has terrible stage fright and is incredibly shy.

[@Anthology_of_Holly]

Don’t feel bad about not catching all the lyrics the first time. I always listen to a Taylor song twice in a row on a first listen! Once to take it all in and then again with the lyrics in front of me. All her songs require multiple listens to fully appreciate

[@michelle61949]

Taylor released it and encouraged her fans to sing and dance and have fun since they couldn’t make it to the shows so faulting her for wanting to include ALL her fans is a little narrow minded. Just my opinion but maybe you were the problem in this situation.

[@demonhoopa]

From what I hear, the movie is like a concert experience. Singing and dancing are encouraged I think you guys were the problem 😂 It would bug me too which is why I’m waiting to stream it 😊

[@Regina_Filanji]

Im a person that has always been into lyrics... So Taylor's lyrics from speak now on has intrigued me . Love folklore. I luckily bought the long ponds session vinyl that i will never okay i framed it. Lol

[@DocRock71]

I'm not a big fan of her music generally, but she has some undeniably great song, but I never knew until recently that she wrote Little Big Town's "Better Man" and her video performing that at a surprise show at Nashville's Bluebird Cafe, gave me a whole newfound appreciation of her talent.

[@nikkimemmott8872]

The contrast of the beaming smile on her face singing this song compared to My Tears Ricochet, lolololol

[@gabeojeda3766]

If you enjoy being unconventional and not so mainstream, I wonder if you’d have more luck by not being so pigeon-held by the same point of view a lot of your/our demographic holds 🤷‍♂️. You could always stand out and just say she’s cool without all the self-protecting caveats. no real shade tho-I’ve been there, but a little growth away from masculine fragility never hurt anyone 🫶🏽

[@elizabethjulia20]

I will say I appreciate his honesty about the difficulty in overcoming preconceived notions that society has put on Taylor and her fans for over a decade... but find it funny because as a contrarian I myself got into Taylor because even as a girl there was always a connotation of "embarrassing" around being a Taylor fan, she's always been portrayed by the media as obnoxious and self-victimising and around the 2016 kanye call when everyone hated her is when I finally fully committed to being her fan. Even now that she's so "popular" it feels unpopular to like Taylor and respect her musically and I hope Seb sees that pov at some point.

[@dinglesworld]

Personally, nothing screams secure and confident in one’s masculinity like having the comfort and courage to defy it and explore “feminine” perspectives. There isn’t really much to fear.

[@jaybo2023]

Thank you for this reaction... This is the first time I've listened to a Taylor song front to back...keep it up I guess I don't know what I've been missing..again thanks

[@tee272]

AMC made it clear Eras was a CONCERT movie, the most successful EVER. People were encouraged to sing and dance. You’re gonna hate the actual concert if you dislike joy this much. Also, why do you need to crap on someone bc of things they can’t change like their speaking voice? wow

[@strngenchantedgirl]

Invisible string is actually a line from a famous old novel called Jane Eyre.

[@ericajohnson8145]

Also, i have enjoyed you guys and your Swift journey, but not very impressed with the superficial comments you keep making about Aaron. You don't have to use your platform to share every "truth" you feel. Especially when it is denigrating and has nothing to do with analyzing T.S. Is sounding like a popular high school bully really what you mean to do?

[@Stringer13ell]

I'm a big National fan and also a vegan. Aaron has a soy voice. Deal with it.

[@Janesorensen84014]

I’m working on being a Swiftie but I love this song

[@ericajohnson8145]

So i am a forty-something woman who isn't lucky in the way that you guys are. I won't be going to the concert. Lots of people couldn't get tickets or couldn't afford tickets. The movie WAS the concert experience for me. I realize you guys mean well, but maybe don't judge so much? Taylor released the movie to be enjoyed, sung, and danced to. It was a magical gift to be able to experience it.

[@ashliekinsler1160]

Agreed! Forty something here and a new Swiftie. The concert movie was my first intro to her live and it was an incredible opportunity! I love that joy in her fandom spreads over every age group and we’re all welcome to celebrate and feel her music! ❤

[@nilufaryasmin8920]

I will not hear a single negative thing about the sweet Aaron Dessner..so

[@tommyrobitaille2475]

If being a man is keeping you from enjoying things... In my opinion, you're probably not that much of a man. It's good to see you're opening up yourself to more. But the fact that you have to reinforce that you're a man on every Taylor video is saying a lot.

[@tommyrobitaille2475]

Also with the type of comments you make towards Aaron... Well, let's just say the christian love is as loving as ever.

[@inesgourzi6947]

I have rarely seen a reactor being so dislikable, the intro to this video was pure toxic masculinity and it kind of gave me the ick... You were very judgy and condescending, as well as extremely unkind toward Aaron who's nothing if not immensely sweet, these remarks on his physic were totally uncalled for... As someone who didn't get to go to the Era's Tour, the movie was the closest thing i could afford and i had such a great time, maybe my best evening of all 2023, the Swifties there were absolute angels, we exchanged bracelets, sung, danced and had an absolute blast, moreover Taylor encouraged us to treat the movie as the concert and to dress up, make friendship bracelet, sing and dance, she also did at the premier. The Era's Tour Movie was made by Taylor for Swifties, if you didn't enjoy it maybe it simply wasn't for you. It was for us to enjoy in every way, not to prove something to those who still try to find reasons to dislike her

[@lucyheartfilia9077]

lol Aaron D is the most normal looking guy, how do you even find fault with that??!😅

i love this lady (Allie) im having a hard time not hating this guy you make it look like you are so amazing and have so rude opinions I try to like you so hard cz i love your wife but you make it so hard lately

[@npats550]

Love her talent, as a songwriter, her vocals especially her lower register, and some of- hey @ 4.48, don't give My man Aaron Dessner a hard time- he produced both of the sister albums! And is in another band. And forming a project with Justin Vernon from Bon Iver, (the male voice in Exile), and I find their voices work well together. It is a very pretty song @ 15.54, I agree about the soothing effects of the song. I think one other interpretation on other songs, about the golden string, is that it's featured on the both albums through other songs and especially the music videos, in "Cardigan ", and "Willow". As for the recent events this year- the Eras Tour, the TicketMaster debacle and the deaths due to the heat and lack of water...it must be awful for her. I do think there's more than meets the eye, as she's just dropped the song "Stop you're losing me", on streaming services. A song which sounds completely aimed at Joe, her Bf for 6years, I feel sad for him, as ppl are blaming him for the Break up, and sending death messages complaining that he is boring, and could not stand her fame...leave the guy alone.

[@Cucumberstopickles]

Right! I love Aaron! He is soo incredibly talented. And def knows how to rock a suit with slicked back hair! The Grammys with Taylor, he looked amazing. He is also painfully shy. I was like, “OH NO!” When he commented on Aaron 😅

[@SouthernArtist77]

A lot of artists look like “outcasts” because I believe we go into our own worlds as a coping mechanism or strategy even. This reminds me of when I had a baby at the same time in the same hospital as my ex. The adult thing to do was to visit them in their hospital room and congratulate them so that’s what I did. I have never regretted that decision as hard as it was back then.

[@terryblair966]

Theres always string holding you together. Have you ever heard of Joni Mitchell back in the 60s and 70s.,she was a great folk singer back then. Played with Stephen Still, David Crosby, Nash and Young.

[@alyssadanielle55]

Ali is iconic I love seeing her in your videos! This song will always be special to me she surprises us at the Nashville night 2 show with it! It’s always been one of my favorite songs by her 🤍

[@EskimoPablo907]

Don't feel bad about going. I'm a straight 30 year old male. I'm from Barrow Alaska, the most northern town in the US and I finally found time to make it to The Eras Tour because of long hitches at work. It was in Mexico City. Barrow to Mexico City is about 4,200miles and that's not including the travel home from work which is an extra 1,000+ miles. I worked for it, made it happen and it was well worth every penny. I hope you enjoy your time, too.

[@terryblair966]

I love this song. Aaron Dresser and Taylor Swift wrote/produced the song.

[@julieg1007]

Very good if you want to know how the songs came about and then watch/hear them. P.S. I am a Taylor Swift newbie. I knew and like her hit songs but that was it. I had no idea of her talent Glad she is taking back what she owns and letting many performers know what is going on.

Finally another Taylor! Maybe you’ll get around to the dono I sent months ago LMAO

[@marycaridad]

I am sorry Seb, but I have to disagree with you here, and I hope that after this message you can see the situation from a different perspective. I am a 35-year-old woman and I´ve been a Switie since 2006, so for almost 18 years. I am Venezuelan and attending the Eras Tour is not in the cards for me. Therefore as far as any concert-like experience, the movie is it for me. I will scream and sing all the songs that have been the soundtrack of my life for so many years. I will NOT make myself smaller, or quieter, for you or for anyone else. I will not make myself less to become "acceptable" to men. Society keeps asking women to become smaller, to occupy less space, to express less, to BE less. Have you ever seen a woman ask men to be quiet during the Superbowl, soccer game, or any concert? No, right? It doesn´t happen. Women can be big, bold, and assertive and that shouldn´t bother you, but unfortunately, society has taught men that being loud, big, or even noticed isn´t feminine. Have you ever thought about why so many men hate TS online? It`s exactly for this reason, for them, she is "too much", or maybe they aren´t enough. I´d suggest you pay attention to the lyrics of "The Man"; maybe that song expresses the issue far better than I ever could. Have a lovely day.

Taylor is ruling these days. I like her music. I’m 60 years old and she has made me like her for sure. BUT in my day, it was CHER. I’ve been a Cher fan since 1969. I saw that you reacted to Adam Lambert doing her song “Believe”. How about diving off into some Cher. She came on the scene in 1964 with husband Sonny Bono. As Sonny and Cher they did “I Got You Babe” and on it goes. Cher holds the record as the ONLY ARTIST, male or female to have a TOP TEN song on One or More billboard charts in the last 7 DECADES. 60’s 70’s 80’s 90’s 00’s 10’s 20’s She is a legend.

[@bbabii]

This is so heartbreaking to see. I cried during the intro of the concert cause I can never afford the actual one and the there has never been a schedule in our country so when it was allowed it really really gave me so much happiness. Cause I can enjoy it like it was a concert without people judging me. And I was so lucky to be in a cinema with people who think so too. So sad how people are think we are rude or crazy because we acted like we are in a real concert 🥹
