Therapist Reacts To: Champagne Problems by Taylor Swift *tangent at the beginning - very emo*

[@onlytoankita]

Imagine being Taylor and perform this multiple times every week She's also going through a lot Love and hugs to you both

[@aihsokin]

It's just incredible how Taylor and Joe were in a healthy relationship and were able to create the most heartbreaking song in the middle of a pandemic. Like, how did they do that?

[@mariahmorganti5901]

I think it weren’t that healthy… :(

[@yuns9364]

@@mariahmorganti5901 Yeah i think so too after hearing "you're losing me"

[@knoxlphoenix3522]

The fall out of their relationship is “your losing me” but the start of the problem was the “Question…?”

[@kellypritchard6516]

Hey, scrolled through the comments and no onehas said it so i will. In an interview Taylor said that the song is based on the relationship between Rory and Logan in gilmore girls, but in hindsight theres sooo many things in here that could be reflective of Taylor and Joe's relationship. But the way she describes the proposal is just like it plays out in Gilmore Girls.

[@mcnoneya]

Listening to this reminds me of the line “ I was a functioning alcoholic until no one noticed my new aesthetic” she was always out partying during the lovers era there’s even a meme and video of “drunk Taylor, and then after that is folklore and evermore which is a completely different aesthetic and sound than her previous albums. Completely different than what ppl are used to very poetic and somber.

[@OliviaNasstrom-ll1ks]

I love that both Lana and Taylor have used the line "one for the money two for the show"

[@PaulaMitchell-xg7mp]

So did Elvis, it is an old adage.

[@ericamorg722]

when i think of “your midas touch on the chevy door” i think it means: everything midas touched turned gold. it may have been pretty, but those things don’t work anymore- they can’t serve their original purpose, they’re rendered useless. this means that their relationship may have looked good from the outside but wasn’t actually working.

[@Sitting_on_a_perch]

Yes! He couldn’t eat bc the food was gold and he when he went to hug his daughter she turned into a golden statue as well

[@auraquartz5575]

I know everybody sees this song as a sad song, but I personally see it as a lesson, a lesson to not put pressure on the person that you want to ask to marry you, because otherwise they feel uncomfortable to say their true answer. For example, it’s like going to a football game and having the whole stadium what you propose and the other person would feel so uncomfortable that they have to say yes to either save your reputation or something. I think the lesson is basically if you’re going to engage with somebody, don’t tell everybody about it, don’t make it a massive public affair because it will make the other person feel like they can’t give an answer without being destructive.

[@imjustgoofy09]

My interpretation: on the line "your hometown skeptics called it, champagne problems" as in they predicted the end of this relationship "they called it" and that speculation makes part of the whole thing that the narrator is calling champagne problems, assuming (with strong reasons) that everybody outside the relationship thinks that these are problems that are not hurtful and probably don't cause any pain, when in reality it's the other way around

[@zac_con]

Glad to hear that your healing is going well, and I hope your physical heath gets better soon! Just a bit of a random recommendation loosely based on what you were talking about in the beginning. Graceland Too (Phoebe Bridgers) is the best platonic love song I’ve ever heard, and I think it would make a great reaction video, and I of course would love to see your reaction to it! Edit: Crazy coincidence… I only saw the part where you talked about Elvis after I posted this, and ‘Graceland Too’ is partly related to Elvis’ home ‘Graceland’.

[@mendwithmere]

Wow!! That’s the powerful synchronicity that I believe it! I’ll definitely check it out! Love the Elvis connection. Do you think it’d be good for members only or everyone?

[@zac_con]

⁠@@mendwithmere To be honest, I think that’s up to you. I think that ur reactions benefit many people who watch them, so I think if I could choose I would want everyone to see all of ur reactions 😂, but I understand that’s not really feasible now that you have started memberships. If you do decide to react to this and make it a members only reaction, that may be enough motivation for me to join though, as I haven’t joined yet… 🤣

Her song writing in Folklore and Evermore is just unmatched. This song in particular is written so well that I am STILL clinging to the lyrics years after listening no matter where I am, what I’m doing during the day, no matter what year it is.

Folklore and Evermore is loosely based on real life, I think there are parallels with their relationships but not to the t. Otherwise, loved your reaction and overthinking too - you definitely got something there with Elvis 🙏🏼💜✨

I am on a mend with mere rabbit hole...so a lot of comments. But so much about this. Thisbhas been my favorite song of hers since my first listen. I think this is what made me resonate wirh her as an artist. You highlight a lot of points, which has been my heartache over the years.

You really gave your best analysing this one. I'm glad for every single video and for your humanity. I feel you like a friend, your videos really help me. You don't have and idea how many people you make the day better, even when is such a bad day

[@bellaviolet20]

New subscriber here! I’m a Swiftie so I’ve slowly been checking out your Taylor content but I definitely want to watch more because I love your analyses. I’m so glad you did this song because I really like it but it’s been hitting me hard since I’ve been dealing with the end of a relationship (haven’t watched your whole reaction to You’re Losing Me yet for that reason). Anyway, thanks for the content and for your vulnerability. I appreciate it and it makes me feel a little less lonely. Also, when she says, “Your hometown skeptics called it,” I first read it as “they called it,” as in they said it wasn’t going to last, perhaps because of the “champagne problems.” Maybe it’s because of the way she pauses before the chorus but that’s how I read it as well as the way you interpreted it.

[@gabriellacibran8194]

I have been going through a rough time this year. I was able to overcome it with the help of friends but it took me eight months to heal. I am doing a lot better now but sometimes little things still make me remember what things we could have had. I hope your health gets better soon and that things get better for you with time.

[@jimenae9316]

I love this song but why don't people talk about the fact that the guy ignored all of the signs. She is being honest, she never loved him in the way he needed. Even if she says "til someone's on their knees and asks you," she also says she never took his hand while dancing, left him standing, and he ignored that. I'm thinking they were the kind of couple everyone expected and to a certain degree influenced them to be together. He took it seriously while she only went along until he proposed and that's when she just couldn't continue with it. She feels bad but she knows she did the right thing. And eventually he moved on and found someone who held his hand and stayed with him. More than the romantic relationship, to me it feels like she's mourning a friendship and a status quo. Does anyone agrees? Or did I misunderstood that part of the song.

[@Elisabethensy]

Agree! And your comment reminded me of Getaway car. She didn't mean it and he didn't see it...

[@just_swiftly_shake_it_off_1989]

I hope this channel is a happy community for you! Also I LOVE THIS SONG

[@tiff5756]

I think when she says “mad house” she’s referring to a mental health facility and saying it’s made for her because the speaker feels they struggle with their own mental health

[@MaryamElSherif-z7c]

This song had a big personal meaning for me too . Except I was the rejected .I was married for three days. It provides a weird comfort .and people saying the problems are trivial " champagne problems " does happen . And another angle sometimes the most selfless thing a person can do is break up when they believe they will only cause the other person pain with their current mental health issues .

[@yraco1232]

Love the reaction. I think personally the evergreen line is more in the literal sense - they were convinced at one time that their friendships and their relationship would last forever, that it would always be as good as it once was just like an evergreen forest that stays a beautiful green all through the year. Now they both have to come to terms with the fact that they were wrong - things weren't evergreen, they were never going to last forever and now they have to deal with the loss of the friendships and relationship they thought would stay in the happy, beautiful state for the rest of their lives.

[@leelu1759]

I don’t know about anyone else, but this song gives me Rory and Logan vibes so much

[@jillsandwich131]

Taylor used the metaphor of dancing to mean relationships all the time and i find that so interesting. "Dropped your hand while dancing" we were in a relationship and i broke up with you. She mentions dancing a lot in her songs and i think its a very clever metaphor

[@nicoletabulai8764]

Like in Dancing with our hands tied. We surely need a DWOHT analysis

[@3Chinchillaboys]

I didnt know the Elvis lyric. I only knew it as the children's rhyme. She turn her favorite turn of phrase at the end. The entire rhyme is: one for the money, two for the show, three to make ready and four to go. Children have used this little poem since the mid-1800s as a countdown to starting a race or competition.

[@HM-rw5dz]

I can't wait till next pay day to join the membership. It's worth it for you and Taylor...and Lana!! I have so much to say hearing this as told from a "rich perspective"... I've got to start journaling but would love to analyze Taylor lyrics

[@willn9568]

Really appreciate this reaction. Deep insight. Thoughtful take on champagne problems, on crestfallen, on the Elvis reference. It’s great

[@3Chinchillaboys]

I think of Champagne Problems as a situation where you expected to celebrate, or thought things were going to go really well, and then everything fell apart instead. He expected to be celebrating with champagne, but instead was heartbroken.

[@_sergio._148]

I think that "one for the money, two for the show, i never was ready so i watch you go" It also references lana del rey's Million dollar man "one for the money, and two for the show, i love you honey, im ready to go"

“You had a speech 🎤 and your speechless”. Tay is brilliant!!!

[@aasthasharma8392]

The switch from "My picture in your wallet" to "Her picture in your wallet" is devastating

[@pele_the_phoenix]

As far as this song goes, I think Taylor may struggle with an addiction to alcohol. Maybe not an every day kind of thing, but more so a binge kind of situation. I mean, there are many songs in which she mentions alcohol in an addictive manner. What do you all think about that?

[@MS-bs8dd]

I have no idea, wouldn’t venture to guess. I’ll only say having an alcohol addiction at some point and often in the early years but not always is so common. It’s a good saying: “I keep my side of the street clean.” Prioritize your own health / sobriety / wellness.

[@sonicroll3000]

she did admit she had an alcohol problem recently so you're not wrong there.

[@pele_the_phoenix]

@@sonicroll3000 Oh…I actually didn’t see or hear anything about her saying that. I know she spoke up about an eating disorder she once struggled with, but I haven’t heard anything about her addressing an alcohol issue. Where/When did she disclose this? Do you have an article or video link?

[@pele_the_phoenix]

@sonicroll3000 She hasn’t addressed it personally, but being a big Swiftie, I’ve listened and analyzed pretty much most of her songs, and she mentions consuming alcohol, liquor, “drinks,” being drunk, and various alcoholic beverages an alarming amount of times. Before I get into it though, I have to preface this by saying I’m in no way diagnosing her. That’s not my job. But, I’ve had experience with family and friends, and it’s awfully familiar. Now, there are a couple in “1989,” but from “Reputation” through “Midnights” she makes it quite clear she likes to drink…or maybe she doesn’t “like” to drink so much as she uses drinking as a coping mechanism. And as her albums progress, it seems her penchant for not only drinking, but actually getting drunk seems to be the overall goal. I’d also add she uses references to alcohol, and drinking/being drunk in her lyrics when something unfortunate has happened to her, when she’s singing about depression, or when she needs a means to escape whatever emotions and negative thoughts she can’t or won’t process at the time feeling them or thinking about them. It seems to me that later, after she sits through an issue, uncomfortable emotion, and/or defeatist thought and becomes more settled, then she writes these lyrics in hindsight. So, from “Rep” through “Midnights” those particular words or a certain type of alcoholic beverage is referenced around 25 times give or take a couple. Also, if you haven’t already, check out the song “this is my trying,” from her “folklore album. It speaks to AND ties together all of the reasons I stated above as to why I feel she’d use alcohol as a means to check out of real life for a little while. Another example would be the “Anti-Hero” video. Plus, you can just Google it and all kinds of graphs and articles pull up. 😊

[@mariai.3918]

I was thinking about it the other day! So many drinks and drunk moments! I think Delicate was the first time we heard about it (you can make me a drink) and then Getaway Car (Old Fashioned) and then the entire Lover Album is full of alcohol references!

[@robstanley9779]

It's so strange going back to your childhood bedroom. I was back at mine a couple of months ago and had the worst nightmares about things 20 years gone. We didn't talk about it but my mum had put an extra pillow on the bed the next night 🥹

Going thru that right now. He told me he loved ask me to marry him rings and all. Then out of the blue ended the relationship kicked me out gave away my puppy. Keep me from getting my belongings. That was in the beginning of December. He was getting a big inheritance three days after kicking me out. He knew I did not care about the money. He broke every promise he made, so many lies. He still six months later he is still trying to hurt me is hurting me. I never did anything to him to him. We had been best friends since 2003. We decided trying to be a couple and I moved in January 2023. Then in the beginning of December one night he asked me to plan our honeymoon. The next morning he ended the relationship and put me on the street.

The way I see it is that for such an expensive bottle used for a happy purpose (celebrating) it comes with tumultuous problems when abused. I think their relationship was cause for a celebration but when abused it was problematic.

[@monpetitm]

I also thought of the "your hometown skeptics called it champagne problems" as if the rejected person's hometown friends, or those who knew the couple, called it "champagne problems" because in their minds the rejection is just a typical problem in couples that'll be resolved; a bump in the road, an obstacle that in the future will be resolved and just stay as a not big of a deal in comparison to those worse problems they have. Though your interpretation seems much more plausible tbh, I think they could complement each other

[@ItsRodolfoSousa]

I'd love to see a reaction of Ronan or the moment I knew both by Taylor

[@SaraIsFangirling]

Also maybe the person that proposed thought they would fix the other person’s issues by marrying them, and it is heartbreaking but it’s also good that they got turned down cus then they’re going to find that “real thing”

I think this is totally fictional. She said they both liked sad stories, and they wrote it together when they were still together, and in a good place.

[@hcrsongbird74]

I've always interpreted this song as a woman who loved this man but who did not fit into his world, and his family and friends never completely accepted her and therefore blamed her for any issues they may have had. (IE, there's no possible reason for "a woman like her" to turn down "a man like him," so she must be even more fucked in the head than they had previously surmised.) He never had to reflect, introspect or really look at their relationship objectively, so he missed a lot of important details that led to this botched proposal.

[@michelleschneider3812]

I have such a crazy different thought on this- hear me out. She wrote this with Joe, right. Could he have either experienced this before her with someone else (and thus why he is so commitment-shy) or could he have expressed to Taylor his deep seated fear of something like this happening to him? So, as part of some type of healing process, "they" wrote this song to speak out loud his fear of abandonment. And especially from her, as she had a public history of broken relationships. And, she might have also been scared that when the moment came that she might break his heart. After all, if he was in fact, depressed, that would be a huge consideration for her to take on as well. I don't know, to me it just sounds like such a plausible scenario that could have happened between her and Joe- even if it didn't - not hard to imagine it playing out exactly like this and that this would be his biggest fear coming true. Then he would have insisted on adding a few lyrics to de-personalize the song like making it seem like college students. Thus it is all made up- nothing to see here. I know I'm a year late to this video... but I would love to know if others thought this as well??

[@pointerlover3492]

I don’t think Blue Suede Shoes has anything to do with her song.

[@grettaoltjer]

I never interpreted this song as the narrator having mental health issues. Rather she was in a relationship and when she was proposed to, she couldn’t imagine spending her life with that person. Only when he was proposing, she realized it’s not the right fit, he loved her more than she did, even though there was no actual definable reason to say no and nobody understood why she said no, she just wasn’t ready and she couldn’t see the relationship going this far with that particular person. Sometimes people in a relationship are in different places. One is ready, the other is not… one wants to get married, the other one wants to focus on their career and doesn’t want to move the relationship forward… and maybe the champagne problems refers to everyone else thinking that the feeling she was lacking when he proposed was a pseudo problem, a champagne problem, it wasn’t real, just a spoiled girl wanting it all… that was always my interpretation of the song anyway. She really hurt him, crushed him, but one day he will find a girl who will love him the same way, who can heal his wounds and make him forget her frivolous reasons for turning him down (or her champagne problems, if you will).
