I’m not sure what happened to the previous post, it wasn’t blocked but wouldn’t load for people. Hopefully this works! Thanks for stopping by 🖤

it wasn’t loading in the app for me but it was on the youtube website

[@AnnaS-cz1oc]

I absolutely love your reactions for your attention to nuances and your understanding of the musical structure, and I'll never stop saying this. But my favorite aspect of your reaction to this particular album is just the fact that a bearded, tattooed guy gets such genuine pleasure from listening to "Love Story." The most wholesome thing ever :)))))

[@MichaelBeveraggi]

@@AnnaS-cz1oc thank you for this Anna 🥺

[@halox3595]

Loved the reaction and seeing your journey looking through taylor swifts art. Taylor swift and at&t got together for a series called making of a song. she showed her song writing and how she made reputation, check it out i think your enjoy it

[@halox3595]

Every album since 1989 taylor swift haves invited fans to her house to listen to her album months before it comes out so she can have a personal moment to thank them. She brought 89 fans to all her houses all over the globe like, Nashville, road island, London, New York and other places. She calls it the secret sessions and if your interested in checking it out, taylor documents it but you can't hear the album of course but you can see the fans experience. She also cooks for them and bakes cookies and a session lasts for 5 hours.

[@boyfriendshouse]

thinking about how it took this re-recording to hit #1 in the US charts in 13 minutes, SHE'S INSANE

[@drew1944]

Actually it only took 9 minutes

[@boyfriendshouse]

@@drew1944 OH REALLY!!! that's even more astounding

[@jasminefaith9773]

I thought it only took one second

[@earlisonline]

this album has a nostalgic value to almost everyone who listens to music in 2008. a lot of people love it when they heard it. idk but i think it contributes to it too

[@wgrodrig5651]

She warned us that she was unhinged. The nostalgia has been snapping so hard since the album came out 🥺🥺🥺

[@boyfriendshouse]

Mr. Perfectly Fine parallels to other songs from Fearless: Mr. never told me why > Tell me why Mr. never had to see me cry > White horse Mr. insincere apology so he > You're not sorry doesn't look like the bad guy

[@psyche.9262]

ooo 😳

[@jacquelinehernandez848]

When I first heard it I thought it maybe should've belonged in Red next to All Too Well with the reference to Mr. Casually Cruel

[@boyfriendshouse]

@@jacquelinehernandez848 ME TOO but then someone pointed out she said Mr. Perfectly Fine 27 times in total and linked it to that 27 seconds phone call and I just 😲

[@frankieflow13]

Also "You said you'd never go away" and "You said forever and always"

[@alexandrareid4100]

Some of those are coincidences. The original fearless album was almost done, and then when Taylor and Joe broke up she had an emergency recording session for Forever and Always. During the live shows she would imply White Horse is about Joe after the fact because the lyrics can apply to him, but it was written about another guy. This was all back in the myspace days when they wrote a blog post about the drama on the Jonas Brothers page and Taylor's page. Joe said she was a "superstar" and then his song "Much Better" he says "im done with superstars" and realizes he is in love with Camilla Belle. And Taylor rebuttled with "Better than Revenge"

[@char4980]

I was only 1 minute into Fearless and I had already stopped the song 3 times to cry because she sounded so different but so similar at the same time, so much nostalgia to this 😭😭😭

[@arjohnpangan8944]

It won album of the year for a reason😻 and this album is actually the most awarded country album in history👀

[@riaroraa]

her lower notes and enunciation are SO flawless in this version. when you go back and listen to the original, you can hear the difference so distinctly. it’s especially noticeable after folklore and evermore how comfortable she’s gotten with her voice. it’s so controlled now, so composed. back then it felt strained and throaty which also made her pronunciation unclear. i only discovered a lot of the lyrics this time around😭 but i don’t blame her she was like 16 back then. so proud of the way she’s evolved

Michael on Tell Me Why: She's made a lot of fantastic digs that are done in a tasteful way, but that might be the best one. Me: He's gonna lose his evermore-loving mind at Dear John.

[@lindseysquire8417]

seriously. let's just say "fireworks" and leave it at that

[@marcelgritten]

Back at that time, Fifteen made Taylor been introduced to the Hall of Fame of composers, the youngest ever to get such honor.

[@sarasilva7105]

The Way I Loved You is so good 😫😫 one of my favorites from the album

[@tantheta2184]

This album is half of America's high-school. It's one the best selling albums of all time. She did such an incredible job at mimicking the feeling and vocals of the songs (except forever & always . It lost the raw anger towards joe jonas but that's okay) . It must be so trippy visiting these old songs and thinking of her old mindsets .

[@alexandrareid4100]

Yes I was a sophomore learning these songs on the guitar when the album first came out

[@vaishnavisingh9244]

I was like seven when I first heard it and now I am a senior, so yeah it is even better (I do remember dancing around the house with The Best Day first came on radio)

[@alterego8643]

I think forever and always was alright the piano maybe not but the regular track was still ok yeah she lost the anger that just happens with time that's why I listen to the orignal on my old cd lmao

[@jessaii.xoxo143]

i think the hurt was lost and it became like a looking back on all those memories album

[@theabsolutenobodyguy5702]

I can feel the sadness on the piano version though.

[@ciaramilan4280]

Taylor says "Mr." 27 times on Mr. Perfectly Fine. Joe Jonas left her a 27 second voicemail when he broke up w her🙈🙉

[@Eric_The_Eccentric]

Brooo if you gave us 13 hours of your reaction, we'd still have such a blast. 😁

[@Cedrix315]

The album, 2008, originally ended with Change. When the album hit milestone in 2009, they decided to make a Platinum version and they added Jump Then Fall to The Other Side Of The Door at the beginning of the album. Today Was A Fairytale was from a movie, Valentine's Day, 2010.

[@monroe.Kristin]

Can confirm- Fearless is amazing in the car.

[@lindseycassella3015]

I listened to this on long road trips when it originally first came out. Obviously not Taylor's version.

[@meganwaller9731]

Fun fact, Untouchable is actually a cover! It was originally written and performed by Luna Halo, but because Taylor changed so much in the cover she still receives writing credit for it! The original is so different, it's like it's a brand new song!

[@tantheta2184]

All The vault songs were written before 2008 that's why they from the vault . She didn't change those lyrics. ( half of those unreleased demos have been on the corners of internet for 10+ years )

[@anabellasantana5327]

This album is ICONIC and i'm absolutly in love with it for about 10 years... Now that is re-recorded is even better. Sending lots of love from Uruguay 🇺🇾❤️

[@flos567]

Uruguay presenteee 🇺🇾🇺🇾🇺🇾

[@lkcullen1918]

I already commented this somewhere else, but I loooove the power and *emotion* she puts into Tell Me Why. It makes it so *cathartic* to listen to.

[@somethingXyouXmiss]

Your interpretation of ‘Come in with the Rain’ was amazing and relistening with thoughts about God gave me chills! The only recent song with religious mentions would be ‘Soon you’ll get better’ when she says “now I’ll pray to Jesus too” for her Mom to get better. Her early work has many mentions because country music has strong associations with religion and religious people. Her Christmas album has a super religious song on it about the reason for the season lol Anyways this is obviously an interest of mine!

[@MichaelBeveraggi]

That’s so awesome Susan thank you for connecting all of that for me! ❤️

[@dianna3327]

“Is that Ashton Irwin on those drums!?” You didn’t 😂😭🔥💀🙌🏻

[@shahedhammad2729]

In the original verison of white horse, she sang “this ain’t a fairytale” but in the new version the last time she sings that line she sings “this ain’t our fairytale” which is so cute cuz she’s basically saying that she’s now found her own fairytale with joe alwyn so she’s saying that fairytales are real.

[@MaddyPerez128]

As someone who’s only listened to TV because I wasn’t a swiftie back then (+ I was like 1 when it came out), this is such a cute change 🫶🏻😭

[@joshuepico75]

This aged like milk 😭

[@agentcaldwell6292]

@@joshuepico75 I WAS GOING TO SAY THIS 😭

[@lailaistark]

Well....

[@fleurdoton8718]

fun fact if you didn't know: the original album went from fearless to change from jump then fall to the other side of the door, those songs were bonus tracks in the deluxe version today was a fairytale was in the movie "valentine's day", so it was released (aka why it's not technically a vault song) but it wasn't in the album at all and, well, the vault songs are what they. i believe some unreleased versions of a few of them have been on the internet for years but some of them had never been heard before

[@gabriellamtts]

I love that Bye Bye Baby is the ending of the album, and the line "bye bye to everything i thought was on my side" because it's like she is saying a definitive goodbye to Scott and Big Machine who she thought was on her side.

[@mariselas.1221]

😭 ... to think about that way, is so devastating. I can’t believe this man did this to her. But Taylor is right, she does have herself and he can’t hold her back. Everything always works out to her advantage because now newer fans are rediscovering her older music. 💛💛

[@ciaramilan4280]

also! I love your interpretation of Change. I believe T wrote this song for her original record label, since they were the little guy back in the day and she helped them climb mountains. Now the song symbolizes how Taylor continues to fight for herself even after that same label turned on her. Like... !!! 🥺

[@bridgetwhite6803]

She said that Breathe is actually about the end of a friendship and the pain that followed rather than the end of a romantic relationship.

[@wolfyanimates2056]

You need to watch the best day lyric video she released ..the song is about her mom and there are so many pictures and videos of them together 💜💜💜

[@ciaramilan4280]

Couldn't agree more about Taylor getting better at the arrangement of her tracks over the years. I've always gotten slightly fatigued by the second half of this album, despite loving literally every single song, because the larger storyline gets foggy. You put it into words perfectly!

[@mikayla8880]

Omg I love this also so happy you are as in love with The Other Side of the Door as I am - it’s been one of my favorite Taylor songs for years! 💕

[@madelynhamilton9255]

Her voice from fearless the original release and read her voice is completely different so you will definitely have to go back and listen to their original fearless

[@marie-piergagne8987]

[@kjn410]

I love your reactions so much. This album was such a big part of my teenage years and to see someone else enjoy it for the first time, it’s just the greatest.

[@Kristileigh13]

I feel like this re-recorded version gave me a whole new level of appreciation for it. And I think it has a lot to do with her mature vocals. Really can’t wait to here all of these other vault songs.

[@gabrielac.5582]

I teared up a little when you said you'd pick change as your baseball song. change's always been one of my fav from fearless and I can see how powerful it would be to walk in with it in the background

[@shahedhammad2729]

You have to watch the lyric video for the best day it’s so beautiful. There are pictures and videos of her and her family when she was a kid. She even shows the video she sings about of her and her mom in the kitchen.

[@richardh776]

On Fifteen you skipped over Abigail's name. Taylor wrote it about her best friend Abigail's story at fifteen.

[@goofy5650]

"Today was a fairytale" was in the movie "Valentine Day" The Vault songs were written when she was 15-19. I think 4 of them were when she was 15, Mr Perfectly fine was when she was 19. I think Keith Urban was also singing backup vocals on "We Were Happy" She opened for Keith Urban when she was starting out.

[@elisamaer9914]

Revisiting your reactions to this album because you are a joy to watch admiring and dissecting the songs. I admire your dedication, and like you said, Taylor's as well to rerecord this album. I can imagine the nostalgia it brings to a lot of her fans. I am of Elvis Presley's time but I can understand how a lot would cry hearing the songs of their teen years. Just love Taylor!

[@siobhanmcshanehill895]

The fact she was a teenager when she wrote this is so cool

[@sadadokis2709]

What you mentioned about the order of the songs being a complete rollercoaster, that is absolutely true, but I thinks it fits so well to the heart and love live of a teenager. At least it does for me 😅

[@AnnaS-cz1oc]

By the way - yes, all the vault songs included on this album because it was written during the same period of time. So she wrote all of that when she was 16-18.

[@florrtagufa7365]

The other side of the door's outro is forever my fave part of the whole fearless album!

[@gabrielac.5582]

im always so emotional watching you sink into taylor's music, it's truly magical experience to see how you interpret those amazing songs and simply just feel them. i really am grateful for your vulnerability here, you're the best man. always can't wait for your videos💛

[@coastercraze68]

I watched the whole thing and had the best time watch you having the best time haha. I love how you picked up on the themes and motifs throughout the album. The ending of The Other Side... might be my favorite part of the whole album so I was thrilled to see you loved it as well 😊 “Who gave her the right to end a song this great” 🙌🏻

[@laurenbennett5646]

Untouchable is a cover, the original is a pop/punk song by the band Luna Halo. They actually agreed to let Taylor have writing credits on the song because she changed the sound so drastically and changed a couple lyrics. You should check out the original sometime, it's wild how different they are!

[@user-gt7pk6ut9k]

When I listened to Change, it made me think about her losing her masters and overcoming it!!! If it was a single that just came out, I would think it was referencing to that!! It made me tear up unexpectedly last night 😭

[@FarhanaK]

Taylor changed the lyrics of Bye Bye Baby. On the original unreleased demo we heard years ago, it was bye to 'one thing' but she changed it to 'everything' in this version and my god somehow it is sadder.

[@EmilyofREL]

I got this album for my 14th birthday and listened to it getting ready for school every day. It’s pure nostalgia, and hits just as hard at 25.

[@mollywood1417]

You should watch the lyric videos she put out. The best day is about her Mom and is so sweet

[@tamaramoody1038]

Country music does have a lot of references to religious aspects, mostly because of that 'home-grown' environment being centered in the more religious south. They're not always in your face or overt, they can be biblical allusions (like The Snake by Eric Church, fantastic song by way) or using more metaphorical parallels. I also want everyone to know just how talented Kieth Urban is. He is such an incredible guitarist and a good singer. It might not be everyone's cup of tea but giving some of his work a chance is worth it. Love, Pain, and the Whole Crazy Thing is a great album from him. He is doing backup vocals and in the band for We Were Happy, most people seem to be missing that but he talked about it on IG to promote the release. His biggest album was probably Golden Road but he has at least one Greatest Hits albums. Not saying you have to film a reaction, but if you want to give it try then absolutely check him out. There are some amazing artists in country music that appeal to all sorts of tastes.

[@intheclauds37]

Today was a fairytale is from Valentine’s Day and if you watch the movie this song paints the exact picture of Taylor’s relationship in that movie.

I can only say that this album is beyond any words i can describe..& ive been a die hard swifties back in the days when we still using myspace..& im so blessed to love her since back then. Interestingly though..I've never thought 'Come in with the rain' like u do b4 this. But u make great sense coz Taylor really love rain. She practically installed REAL rain in her 1st. headlining tour. She has played in many rain shows eversince.. i mean like IN THUNDERSTORM POURING RAIN! & fans wouldnt move an inch coz her concerts in pouring rain something to behold forever in ur memory.

You could react to the Fifteen and The Best day lyrics videos cause they’re the cutest 😭😭😭😭

[@dearestkyra]

I love how much fun you had listening to this. You caught so many rain references! lol This album rocks so hard. It’s a total fake out like some others said, because the singles are about fairytales and love but then she hits you with the dramatic, bitter rage of a teenage girl just broken up with who knows she deserved better. And then the world loved her for it!! It’s so awesome. She literally jumps into the deep end of her emotions in Fearless without holding back. I agree with you, Forever & Always is good but I’ve always preferred the piano version! I’d say most mainstream country artists, in the last 20 years at least, do reference God pretty consistently in their albums. Also, Keith Urban is the one doing the backup vocals in We Were Happy! He’s up there as one of my own favorite country artists.

[@sophh1585]

Just seen this pop up on my feed and smiled, then realised going to have to watch it in installments! 🙂

I think Come In With The Rain is definitely about a partner who is a bit wishy washy, but she still holds out hope this person will figure themselves out (talk to the wind, talk to yourself, talk to god) and commit. The song for me perfectly captures the mixed feelings of getting real tired of someone's bullshit, but still being so deeply in love with them. You're exhausted so all you can do is open the window and hope they'll come in.
