NON Taylor fan FIRST TIME REACTING to Taylor Swift’s STORY | *The Rise and Fall (and Rise Again)*

[@moonchild.9766]

She is a fucking genius. Her lyricism on her music is just another level. You should react to All too well (10 minutes version), is breathtaking 🤧

[@luciaelizabeth9233]

i would recommend going in order of albums. It shows her growth and how she matured with time. And the music just gets better and better. And def check Miss Americana first

[@keepyourmindopen]

I second this suggestion.

[@martusky3278]

But miss Americans after listening to lover

[@veritas5287]

Yesss

[@daisymae3717]

Definitely agree, but listen to Taylor's version (if available) so you get the full version.

[@mavi_borela]

yes, Miss Americana yes definitely worth checking out, specifically if you do not know a lot about her

[@aleksandrakorza3764]

okay so as far as ive seen the video doesn’t mention it, but kanye also made a music video for the song, in which he featured ( i mean it was there the whole video) a wax figure of naked taylor. without her knowledge or permission. i don’t think i have to explain why that’s just so wrong.

[@clarascats1365]

Literally. People always talk about the lyrics of the song (which were of course so horrible and uncalled for), but nobody talks about the music video. Like how did anyone think that was ok?

[@DemonSmack]

And not to mention that naked Taylor was in a BED with Kanye! Absolutely violating and disgusting.

[@kae4749]

@@DemonSmack and there are people who still defend him for that..

[@thvf2381]

that's so misogynist but back then no one really batted an eye bcs he's seen more "cooler" "i'm so manly" to idolize than taylor's "cutesy girly songs"

[@sca_rlyt]

Exactly, and he claims he got permission for that but taylor didnt know about the lyric he was going to say about her. Kim edited the phone call and portrayed her as a liar. She had to live with that for YEARS till the actual phone call leaked and the world realized that she never lied. I despise kimye for that

[@dani010203stor]

what i hate the most is how she expressed the gratittude of him not calling her bitch and there he goes, changes the lyrics to call her bitch. and then edits the video (of a recording he NEVER TOLD HER ABOUT WHICH I THINK IS ILLEGAL) so people never get to see that particular part. seriously Kanye and Kim are nothing but evil

[@madelinewise8692]

The funny thing is, according to the Chinese Zodiac, Taylor was born in the year of The Snake so she made the most of being labelled one. I like your reactions Gabbsi. I thing you're smart, charming and funny.

[@Dr.SyedSaifAbbasNaqvi]

Yes me too 1989 🤣

[@silverkyre]

The hype around folklore is also what got me into Taylor Swift. I also only knew her most popular songs and I learned something listening to her albums: Those are her worst songs. I dont mean it in a bad way they're are great songs, its just that everything else is so much better. Taylor said about folklore that it was the first time she didnt write specifically like "this will be the single." And it shows. Lover is an amazing album and if you cut Me out it would be perfect. I feel like her singles hold it back, because what a masterful album. If Cruel Summer and others had been her single she would have walked away with all the awards. Same with Reputation I think. Her best work, her great moments are something you cant apppreciate if you only know her singles, which are still great, but if thats all you know youd be like me. Oh yeah i enjoy when they're on the radio but was never really a fan. Now its been a freaken revelation. Now i get why all her fans talk about her being amazing and a genius. The clues the layer within layers in the lyrics of her songs. Amazing.

[@Black_cat_27]

I feel like she now puts out her fav music as singles, based on her emotions and connect to a song rather than what she thinks “we” or the media or the academy will think.. she’s just surpassed all the awards at this point and just puts music out there as almost free therapy😂

[@gambinos27]

I agree 100%

[@sca_rlyt]

Agree even as a huge swiftie the singles aren't my favourite, its just that I prefer every other songs more cuz the lyrics are so much better and meaningful yk👀

[@stardolphin783]

I actually love folklore i felt they were all so strong but just not exactly what ppl expect from a popular song yk? Its very calm but i still think they are bops

[@jesse2833]

This is such a good reaction! I cannot wait for more Taylor Swift stuff from you!

[@mellinatre1149]

I am pretty sure Kanye knew well what he was doing and did it because it would help him.. him and Kim milked that till it's 🦴 so yeah on his part was never a case of miscommunication at all

[@Anna13Tonks]

It was because he was releasing an album at that time and was doing anything to gain relevance. We all know his music is not enough and I think he kinda knows it too lol

[@Starbuck-dr7yl]

We know it was a set up because at the end of the phone call, after she hung up, he asks his team in the room if they got it all and that there can’t be any part missing. It’s sickening to listen to.

[@luckettt.]

He was definitely bitter because she was making a lot bigger hits than him and he was jealous of the spotlight she was getting. The way she looked after he got off stage was just depressing. I couldn’t imagine being that low of a person and treat someone like that. He’ll always be garbage.

[@noriereckcxzs103]

Agree its like the marketting strategy for kanye which is a bad one cause he have to dragged taylor down good thing that album of kanye is not success. Correct me if am wrong haha

[@Dr.SyedSaifAbbasNaqvi]

@@Starbuck-dr7yl really i didn't know that. Oh what vile people.

[@ae_lyke]

20:20 The song is Out Of The Woods, one of the two underrated singles of 1989 (the other is New Romantics). That song portrays her relationship with HS (i think because, she has a tattoo "HS" in the mv) their relationship was haunted by media, and it made her very anxious about their relationship thats why the chorus is repetitive. Masterpiece.

[@kae4749]

she said in an interview that "all i felt throughout the relationship was anxiety", brilliant!!

[@sknight2810]

Taylor capitalizes off of twerking is such a stretch. In shake it off, there’s all type of dances. Twerking happens to be one of them. The MV was her implying that no, she doesnt do all these dances seriously (meaning the hip hop dances, twerking, ballet, cheerleading dances that she included in the mv) she just dances for the fun of it whixh ppl even criticized her for… dancing in silly manner bc she had fun.

[@Sassyglbeauty]

I think she is saying, there’s no way she can compete with the “pros” and that’s ok. She moves to her own beat.

[@Starbuck-dr7yl]

I’m much older than Taylor so I missed all her music. I began listening to her about 18 months ago during pandemic. I first watched her documentary Miss Americana which intrigued me to listen to some of her music. She then released folklore and that’s how I started.

[@Trina2813]

I just hate the world for being so quick to judge , my queen went through hell , her career nearly ended all because of an edited phone call . You know when this whole drama was going on I supported taylor and literally got bullied because everyone was against her . But I supported her , I just knew that she was telling the truth which was the case . I will be forever proud of my queen , she deserves the whole world but we don't deserve her . I bet those five year olds who trended taylor swift is over party must feel realllllyyyyyy stupid right now cause the truth is #KimyeIsOverParty , #TaylorWasTellingTheTruth

[@clarascats1365]

You should definitely watch her Netflix documentary “Miss Americana”! It goes even more in depth and sort of shows things from her point of view.

[@Vennela_Raj]

Really loved how you understood her for the first time introduction to her... Pls keep reacting to Taylor... You just gained a subscriber 🤗

[@douniak1518]

YESS I CANT WAIT FOR YOUR JOURNEY TO GET INTO TAYLOR!!!!!

[@RobertHeslop]

I giggled when you said "she rose from the dead" because in LWYMMD, she has a lyric "honey, I rose up from the dead, I do it all the time"

[@yezzN02]

Loved that you didn't just watched for the sake of watching, but actually paid attention and analyzed what was being said. All with an open mind. Sounds like you're up for a Taylor Swift discovery ride, and I'm in for it. Just subscribed ✌🏼😊

[@edpotter1170]

Taylor has 9 albums so far, excluding the re-recordings. All of them are very successful with lots of hits. But I'm pretty sure most fans would've agreed that you should do what are owned by one and truly Taylor's, and not the stolen version so this is the list of the albums owned by Taylor so far: - folklore (July, 2020) - evermore (December, 2020) - lover (2019) - fearless (Taylor's version) (April, 2021) - red (Taylor's version) (November, 2021)

[@anysuggestion670]

Reputation is not one of them? What?

[@dudaoliveira2601]

the blue dress is from her music video "out of the woods" (rumored to be about harry), one song i would love for you to react is "Back to December" it's an apology song from her third album, "Speak Now", and i know you said that you've heard blank space, but i think it would be nice if you listened the song knowing that its making fun of how the midia portrayed her, i know that, for me, knowing this completely changed the perspective of it.

[@loud_hailer6240]

What should you hear from Taylor??... ohhh man you have just booked the content for your channel for the next two years! HAHAH I personally like it when people watch her amazing music videos from early to new because its a great visual she creates and it shows the different eras.

[@kait7404]

I love when they do with any artist it shows the growth in their music

[@rgalvshpbks]

I can't wait for more Taylor Swift from you. Her music changes so much from album to album. I suggest that you listen to her discography to fully appreciate what a great artist she is. The sexism that has surrounded her is so sad. During the 2016 canceled time even her fans were under attack. I remember people giving me looks or asking me if I was a stupid 13 year old girl when I would listen to her music and I was 30 at that time! Even now I still have acquaintances and co-workers who refuse to believe that she had been telling the truth the whole time. Therefore I am so grateful to creators like you who are willing to give her a chance.

[@ambergiffin2750]

I would start with the 10 minute version of All Too Well, personally. I'm obsessed with it. Great video, by the way. Thank you for giving her a chance and listening to her story. I know I'm biased. I'm a total Swiftie, but she is one of the best songwriters in the world.

[@hunniii2356]

By the way the video where she has the blue dress is her music video called "out of the woods" off of her album 1989

[@guadaluperocha914]

I love Taylor she is the best I have been a fan since 2017

[@piyajann]

I nearly bust out my tear when I saw your anger over kim's tweet. As a swiftie, that time was our worst nightmare

[@nabahfahim67]

Omg things I don't want to remember as a swiftie 😔

[@khazelming]

I've been a fan of of Taylor Swift's music since my teenage years. Now I'm at my early thirties and I still love her songs. I can say I'm one of those who went crazy when 'Folklore' (and its twin 'Evermore' afterwards) came out... One of the most special things about her masterpieces is that I get to feel the emotions deep in my heart and soul even though I don't have any relationships yet. Everything, from butterflies of joy to the depth of pain and heartbreak to fire ball of rage. I even cry (Oh please, it feels like my heart was getting stabbed when I listened to 'All To Well' 10 min ver). I didn't even know much of Taylor's actual lovelife and heartbreaks. I didn't know most of the guys he dated. Her songs are enough for me to know at least what she felt in the relationship and after that.

[@flora5642]

one of my fav quotes that i don't remember who said but it goes like this" privilege isnt the increase in opportunity but the decrease of obstacles " I cant with kanye I just cant. i m happy that the queen is back stronger than a 90s trend. she deserves all the good she has and more to come

[@angeljaceherondale]

14:40 You also have to remember that in the same call he asked HER to release that song HIS song in HER twitter and she said no. So he definitely had a billion ulterior motives.

[@moonlight.z6543]

"Women supporting women *claps sarcastically *" Funny you say that, Taylor has a lyrics in her song "Mad Woman" that goes: _Women like hunting witches too, doing your dirtiest work for you, it's obvious that wanting me dead has really brought you two together_

[@AndreValenzuelaMarin]

The blue dress is from “Out of the woods” video clip. And she was crazy because she released LOVER and 9 months later she came out with Folklore then out of nowhere the next year she came out with Evermore

I don't know why I feel like I have already watched this video from you haha but welcome to Taylor's Nation. You could watch her documentary to know more about her, it covers her personal growth and maturity until Lover (2019), so you'll just be missing her new level of maturity and creativity approach from folklore & evermore.

[@richiguerra7664]

I love this reaction! Taylor is so genuine, I don’t mean to offend but where are you from Taylor is all over social media everywhere it’s so crazy that you didn’t know all this information. I’m so glad you gave yourself an opportunity to learn a little more about her, but yes listen to the music, if your going to look for her older music ale sure to stream TAYLORS VERSION lol but yes her lyrics are so good and I love her and thankful to have grown up with her music! It truly is time less ❤️ great reaction.

There’s a last part of her history right now that you are missing! And that’s her current battle to regain control with her masters and the whole feud with Scooter Braun! It’s really important I think because it highlights a bigger conversation of how artists should own their work. (: Also, her whole reputation tour is on Netflix and her documentary! They are both master pieces you should definitely check out. (:

This video completely misses a apart in the Kanye drama where Taylor originally forgave him. He sent her flowers and they made up, they were on good terms for about a year and he then asked her to present him his vanguard award or something he was receiving at some award show, but he then complained on stage that the award show was forcing him to befriend her and embarrass him by receiving the award from her when HE asked. She said she knew at that moment she could never trust him, but she still TRIED to remain in good terms. Afterward the song famous drama happened.

[@hellformichelle]

Let's not forget that this 19 year old girl wrote a song forgiving a grown-ass 32 year old man and he continued his childish grudge. I'm kinda curious as to what she'll do about Innocent on the re-recorded Speak Now

I saw someone suggest concert films from 1989 and reputation, but I want to mention two you should watch prior to those!
