Few years ago she said in an interview that this song is the Hardest for her to perform cause it's way too close her heart but after seeing how much this song means to her fans. she found a new meaning in the song she feels joy to sing it now.

[@PandoraStolen]

I read somewhere that she wrote this song just for herself and had no intention of putting it (the original) on the album because she thought it was way too personal and no one would like it. And it's probably her most iconic song and it wasn't even a single until just recently with the 10 minute version. I don't know what made her change her kind but I'm glad she did.

[@emmarose6590]

I can’t imagine the hurt it brings up, even after all these years. Jake did her bad, took her V card and then played games with her heart. Pretty hurtful.

[@reneesmith983]

I always wonder when she released this in 2012 were people talking about gaslighting mainstream? We do now but I don't think people were back then.

You've had the luxury of pausing it to talk, but I'm a new Swifty, and this version was the first one I ever heard and it was brutal. I was right there in the story right away for personal reasons, and each section just piled on top of the last until I couldn't breathe. I just kept going with no idea what the time was, like well, if she can bear to suffer it, I can bear to witness it. Even now, I don't feel 10 minutes when I listen to it. Someone said she writes with a knife and damn. For real tho.

[@angelas.g.9848]

Her grammy performance of this, fucking remarkable.

[@emileehammett7671]

To me, the title All too well and her repeating I was there, I was there in the outro takes on a whole new meaning after learning that during that relationship Taylor experienced gaslighting and emotional manipulation. Because she is saying that after the relationship was over, she realizes that all of those things that he tried to convince only happened in her head were real. She remembers them all too well looking back.

[@gracependley5912]

and now she sings the full 10 minute version at the eras tour every show

[@ESWrites]

I can't believe she wrote this when she was like 21. It's amazing.

[@GillDawe]

I'm not a big "Swifty" but this song just knocks me over. Some of the lyrics are just so visceral and descriptive, I feel like I was right there in the middle of it.

[@ksm...123]

Hear some more songs u ll soon become the biggest swiftie

[@chaicharlee]

Babe, so many of her songs are like this. Thats literally why swifties are swifties.

[@nmswjm]

She explained once that the plan was to record the short version of the song. The day she showed up to record everyone there could tell she was upset. She said she needed a minute before starting to get some things out. She just started singing, going on for ten minutes. At the end everyone sat speechless. Her mom leaned over to the producer who was there and whispered “I hope you recorded that…” Later, they recorded the short version for the album and this went into the vault until Red TV was released w the vault tracks.

[@cathybrookeburt2616]

Oh man, you need the 10 minute movie she made for this one. Sooooooo good.

[@sgreenbe74]

What I love about your reactions to Taylor Swift is that you show that listening to music is a conversation. I think Taylor writes that way--as if talking to a loved one or friend--and it seems your way of reacting--by sharing your own experiences--is a meaningful interaction. That is something worth returning to a reactor for.

[@DestructiveMediaYT]

Thank you for such a kind comment, it made my day!

[@rachel-dc4ti]

i really like how open you are to suggestions, even things that you know might not be your cup of tea! thanks for the reaction and you should totally do dear john

Please, youll love dear john, the lyricism is perfect, (its about john Mayer)

[@soonerborn7603]

Dear John is a top 5 Taylor song for sure!

[@courtneyschwarzbauer7245]

She ad libbed the majority of these lyrics after the breakup during rehearsals one day….it’s a whole ass journey and I’m here for it 😊🙃 it’s always been one of my favorites. Even though it’s so specific in some lyrics it’s also so relatable. The short film is even better…. Sadie Sink is 👌🏻perfection.

[@DestructiveMediaYT]

Thank you for watching!

[@sabinegunzl]

dylan and sadie did a great job!

[@Mravenrocks]

This song was so meaningful and heartbreaking for Taylor than during the RED Tour in 2012/2013 (when the original version came out, she also super sad and used to go backstage to cry during the promotion of the album both because of this breakup and because one of her closest friends had died off an overdose and she wrote about it in an amazing song called "Forever Winter") she cried during most of her live performances, I remember being in the audience when she stopped during the song to cry. People in the audience started to sing it for her and cheer her up, it was super emotional and we were all crying. She has publicly said that the fans have changed this song for her into a collage of happy memories and people screaming the song with her and it doesn't make her cry anymore. I also really liked your comparison with Tool, while I would love Taylor having Carey quality drums, she can still be very innovatie with her music like her album 1989 bringing back a new wave of 80s inspired pop or with the Folklore album being a mix of indie and americana type of sound.

[@ExtreMe-uk4lm]

You are listening to Taylor and there's cat hair in your nose.. it's not coincidence.

[@MademoiselleRed1390]

I don't know if she recorded it in one take but in the Eras tour I can tell you she sings the 10 minutes of it. And it's amazing.

[@afiefswift5403]

This is the hardest song she ever created. She started making this song back in 2010/2011 when she was in her 2nd headline tour. It took 10-11 months for her to finish this song alone. The original version is like 20 minutes version, then she asked Liz Rose to help her cut the song to fit in her album with 10 minutes demo. But her label at that time push her to make it even short, so Taylor & Liz cut the song again to 5 minutes version and the song presented in her 4th album "RED" back in 2012. Since then, this song became her fans national anthem. So when her label screw her masters issue back in 2019, she decided to re-record her first 6 albums and while making RED Taylor's Version, she added this 10 minutes demo. In 2021, this song went #1 and become the longest song to ever peaked at the top of the charts.

[@nikkis7375]

This song came out when I was 18 and had just gotten my heart broken by my first love and I would listen to it in the car and cry every single time. 10 years ago and I still tear up on some parts. ❤️

[@DestructiveMediaYT]

Thank you for watching and sharing your connection to the song. Unfortunately it's sad but at least you can appreciate a wonderful song now?

[@elizabeth5985]

@@DestructiveMediaYT The thing about sad songs, and crying to them, is it gives you an opportunity to cry the sadness out. I'm the saddest when I can't cry.

I would highly suggest reacting to the all too well short film that taylor wrote and directed. I always love watching people discover the genius that is Taylor Swift.

[@chloeraeg654]

You should listen to her albums folklore and evermore they are both amazing

[@undeecidedhuhu]

Taylor Swift reactions are just so satisfying

[@Violet316]

Taylor Swift is one of the most creative singers I have ever heard in my 63 yo life, there are songs that are lesser known, that are underrated. Taylor featured on B.o. B's song "Both of Us," you should ask your wife if she knows it and if she doesn't, maybe you could react to it.

[@michelle10982]

you should react to dear john! she wrote it when she was like 19 after she dated john meyer who was like 31 or 32.

[@melissacrawford7855]

I discovered Taylor with RED in 2012, I was going through the hardest heartbreak at 30yrs old, listened to this song and her album (which is basically a heartbreak album) Crying on the bed, couldn’t believe these songs she wrote, basically explaining how I felt. Became a swifty ever since. This song still give me chills 10yrs later. Her best song ever written

[@cruzinbosco]

This was my favorite song when it was first released, and when she came out with the 10-minute version, I only loved it more. I honestly wish it was 20-minutes. It's just so powerful and puts you right there with her.

[@alyssavanhouten]

What a refreshing reaction! Authentic, honest, fair. Thanks for giving her music a listen!

[@DestructiveMediaYT]

Thank you for watching!

[@flyushkifly]

arghhhh! I don't want to like her this much! I don't have time for songs in English that rip my heart out every time I listen to them! Her wordplay is exquisite though. She's the kind of writer that makes you think a turn of phrase should already have existed - like something Shakespearian - because it is so eloquent.

[@Sharon-yn8xg]

She’s a poet!

[@aimeemarie5462]

I wouldnt call myself a hardcore taylor fan but I have a lot of respect for her. I saw her in concert (along with a few other more established artists) when she was club hopping as an up-and-coming country artist. When she jumped to Pop music, I was thrilled for her because I felt like it fit her better. Shes an amazing song writer and I dont think she gets enough credit for it. Shes even written songs for some other artists. So thrilled to see the sweet, awkward girl with the guitar I saw many years ago turn into such a successful artist.

[@starryjuns4322]

loved this reaction!! you really should react to dear john, her songwriting in that song is exceptional! one thing to know beforehand though: the song is about her relationship with john mayer. when they dated, she was 19 and he was 32...

[@calley7567]

Really enjoyed this reaction loved how you actually listened to the lyrics!! BTW taylor doesn't really have anything against jake rn the relationship ended 12 years ago lol. the reason she released the 10 mins version is mainly because she mentioned it 10 years ago and fans kept asking her to release the full version, so while she was already rereleasing her old stuff she released this one too :) jake also said recently that he also has nothing against her since she's only sharing her experience

[@15TaTyJoVeL]

my internal debate is between this one and dear john,i could suggest that one ,loving these reactions and thank you for your honesty :)

[@Srg.L.Harvey]

Would love to see your reaction to her live verse of this at the Grammys. Just seeing her emotions while performing it while playing the piano makes it so much more powerful. It's amazing.

[@misslouie6742]

Before being a BTS fan. I was and still a Taylor Swift fan. I love all of her music and it was part of my childhood. This song is one of my favorite ofcourse

[@morganlblaney]

If you like heavier stuff listen to her Reputation album. It’s her rock…something tells me you would like it haha

[@Angie-ze8cn]

You should react to Dear John it's about John Mayer and such a powerful song.

[@gianni4096]

It's a great song, I'm a newer fan of Taylor too (Started during lockdown when she released Folklore, didnt realize how much of an amazing songwriter she is... one of the top) and its cool to see your reactions were similar to mine lol. You'll see in her catalog she has her radio hits, but its the songs that aren't radio hits that are some of the best. You should check out Folklore/Evermore if you want a highly lyrical storytelling alternative type sound, Red (Taylors Version) for a more upbeat pop rock album, or Fearless (Taylors version) for a country rock vibe. She is re-recording all of her past albums which is why they're labelled Taylors version, so Red and Fearless are what she's done so far. People suspect 1989 (her pure pop album) to be the next one coming. So its a good time to start!

[@belpop]

I think that’s a good prediction since she just released her version of “this love”

[@clansome]

@@belpop Err She has her new Album Midnights coming out on October 21. 1989 (TV) & Speak Now (TV) are undoubtedly already recorded and waiting for release but both are embroiled in the Courts. 1989 because of the Shake It Off trial which has now been put off till January (ludicrous) and Speak Now is caught up with Trademark litigation over the use of "Speak Now" which has been Trademarked by OnePlus. It could be that they cut a mutually beneficial deal but we'll have to see. Oh I should have said that each time someone approaches her "team" for the rights to use one of her songs, it is refused unless it is one that has been rerecorded or one she owns already. Apparently they get a couple of hundred requests a day. "This Love (TV)" was used for the trailer of The Summer I Turned Pretty back in May 2022 (don't know if it was in actual film).

Any question about Taylor’s point of view regarding her relationship with Jake will be made clear with it. BUT, I was watching you and I think that you are a sensitive and intelligent person!!! Also brave! Like all of my favorite reactors, it takes guts to put yourself out there. 👊🥇

[@richkyc]

She has some of the written lyrics in of her lover diary album releases and on of the original lyrics there that were taken out for the originally version of the song included “sacred prayer” And just shows how much more internet the feelings were than we thought

Exile from folklore please 🙂 great duet.

[@Starbuck-dr7yl]

Loving your journey. I started my journey in 7/2020. Taylor writes to help make sense of feelings, situations, memories, experiences. Often she writes about an event in different ways, different perspectives, different times, different reflections after time has passed and you see things differently. So often events pop up in other songs, songs become linked. It’s called the Taylor MCU, or the TCU. One song that goes with this is called the moment I knew, she references this song in All Too Well (10). Another song in this same style is called Dear John and I find it to be just as good if not better. She writes very directly a lot if the time as you pointed out, but she does use a lot of metaphors in her writing too. If you aren’t used to it, you miss it. One would be Coney Island (ft the National), it’s a metaphor, she’s not really at Coney Island, but a metaphor for a place/relationship that was once fun and exciting but now the sun is going down a d it’s getting cold and it’s not fun anymore.

[@RobGamesOn]

The TCU... I like that. Cardigan, August, Betty... all off Folklore and all three are connected... then add Willow from Evermore as it's the sequel to Cardigan. The entire Red album for the most part. All Too Well 10 minute version references so many songs off the album. The Moment I Knew: this verse is basically that whole song. ATW10: "Not weeping in the party bathroom, some actress asking me "what happened?" You! That's what happened. You! You who charmed my dad with self-effacing jokes. Sipping coffee like you were on a late night show. But then he watched me watch the front door all night, willing you to come. And he said "it's supposed to be fun turning 21." State of Grace: Speaking of the fact both Taylor and Jake are saggitarius. "Twin fire signs. Four blue eyes." ATW10: "And did the twin flame bruise paint you blue?" Sad, Beautiful, Tragic: "What a sad, beautiful, tragic love affair." ATW10: "Just between us, did the love affair maim you too?" I Bet You Think About Me: "But reality crept in, you said we're too different. You laughed at my dreams, rolled your eyes at my jokes." ATW10: "But I've never been good at telling joke but the punchline goes, "I'll get older but your lovers stay my age."" Then there's the link between "We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together" and "I Bet You Think About Me" from Taylor's Version. WANEGBT: "And you would hide away and find your peace of mind With some indie record that's much cooler than mine." I Bet You Think About Me: "I bet you think about me when you're out at your cool indie music concerts every week."

[@Musicforever712]

Another example of her using a metaphor to describe a thought or an emotion is her song Miss Americana and The Heartbreak Prince (which uses a highschool relationship and setting as a metaphor for how American Politics works.)

[@kosmikpixie]

I consider myself one of the luckiest Swiftie. My journey with her started in April 2007 when I heard her on the radio for the first time after moving to the city. She was singing Our Song and something in my head told me I was hearing the future of music. I saw her in concert with Brad Paisley that fall and again in the spring of 2008 with Rascal Flatts. Also bumped into her at the local Children's Hospital that day and told her she be as big as The Beatles one day. (I grew up with The Beatles.) She gave me a big hug. Been name dropping ever since lol. When you meet Taylor Swift, you gotta tell everybody. Saw her in Fargo on her 1989 tour. Sat and cried all the way through.

[@ivy5919]

A reaction video of the all too well short film with (or without if she doesn't feel comfortable in front of the camera) your wife would be so cool!

[@coomacp9194]

Never heard the short version but based on when you said the addition started I think I like the 10 minute version more. I wasnt too sure when the song first started, but I liked not only the lyrics in the second half but the way she changed up the music, it made it more interesting and dynamic. You could really feel the hurt and there were some really powerful lines, particularly in that second half. It's a good song, but not sure yet if I'll add it to my playlist. Will have to give it another proper listen outside your reaction video and see. Content wise Ive also connected with Tolerate It and This is Me Trying more.🙂

[@mountainrock7682]

You should listen to the 5minute version to see which parts are "added".

[@redwineandagingerale]

There's added parts throughout the song, the first one being the 'key chain on the ground' verse. The bridge that's really powerful beginning with 'well maybe we got lost in translation' is in the original short version as well. So basically what I'm trying to say is that the 10 minute version isn't the original plus 5 more minutes added at the end, it has added parts throughout the song and an elongated ending. Just something to note. The original version is beautiful but not as descriptive in the hurt she experienced caused by specific actions.

[@jerickson725]

You have a new subscriber! I saw your reaction to Tolerate It first, and I plan to go back to it to comment on what you shared and an artist suggestion. Anyway, you do a great job reacting from what I've seen so far 😊. I plan to check out all the reactions you've done. I'm a 58 year old woman who loves 70's and 80's rock and pop.

I love that you reacted to the lyrics video instead of the music video. “All Too Well” is a great song but that music video makes me cringe and when others react to it I feel like the focus is more on what’s playing out on the screen as opposed to the music. Anyway, I enjoyed hearing your thoughts on this and seeing how you appreciated the songwriting.

Nee Subscriber here! I just found your channel after watching your podcast. I was gonna go straight to BTS but saw that you did Taylor's "ALL TOO WELL!" Tysvm for being genuines & open minded. You should watch the short film, it was directed by Taylor herself!! Sooo good! You mentioned ur not a vocal line guy, but I think when you see stuff like BTS & Taylors lyrics & the deep message behind them, that you'll start appreciating the the slower poppy songs.

Hi, like your reactions!! It's difficult to me to say this,( cause I don't want to start an Issue but..) maybe there's some people that think the same as me : In my opinion, the terrible trauma She went through,makes Her not telling all in the song.....but left some hints. In my perception, He forced Her to things She doesn't want in that moment; She was raised in a Christian Family and with a golden innocent heart ❤️.So lyrics like "down the stairs I was there" ( hiding) " Sacred prayers" ( please for God's Sake, don't.... ) " When You make Me your Own " And the word "rare" in " that was rare , You were there " always seems to me like don't make much sense ,but for just One letter it can say " rape " Is just my opinion I hope I'm wrong!!!

The originally released version is a masterpiece, this one although a treat to swifties, it's quite boring and long-winded for a casual listen, I only listened to it once to get the tea and never again, lol.

[@sarahfrench6522]

When I first listened to it I thought the same thing..I was like this is good but it is long…and then the shorter version came on one day and when it supposed to get to the new lines I was like what the heck and turned on the 10 minute version lol never listened to the shorter version again😂
