Therapist Reacts To: The One by Taylor Swift *inspired after watching Counting Crows Rendition*

[@serenxbrookes]

taylor swift forever has my heart

[@nishthagupta1357]

Same

[@vaidehikhaladkar8016]

Your voice is so comforting and calming! Your reactions make me feel happy and peaceful❣️

[@mendwithmere]

Oh thank you!

[@pele_the_phoenix]

I love this one…It has such a catchy melody and I love the lyrics! Amazing analysis, as always! When I think about “your chosen family” I kinda think she’s talking about the family one chooses to be with, as as opposed to the family one is born into.

[@brucebrown3837]

I remember when I first heard this and not WATCHING the lyric video and thinking she sang, "roaring 20's, tossing panties in the pool". I was like, well, this is a hell of a song to start the album!

[@zac_con]

I read your book and thought it was fantastic! Loved your reaction here too, as always!

[@mendwithmere]

Really?!?! Ahhh so happy to hear! Thank you SO much for buying AND reading it. It means so much!!!

[@catslaylis]

omg this is one of my favorite taylor songs. no matter how many times i listen to a song you always seem to bring even more meaning to it for me with your reactions you're amazing

[@janepar715]

Such a joy when I see you post a new video! I feel safe, cozy and understood watching your videos. Much love !!

[@AttorneyMelanieLittle]

Scrolling through my feed- and there you are!! What an excellent way to start my day by seeing your beautiful face… 🫶❤️ I have been listening to this song on repeat since I can’t even remember when… “in my defense, I have none… for digging up the grave another time…” imo speaks to her relentless attempts to resurrect a relationship that she knows is dead, but can’t help but think, if only. If only he would change. 😢💔. Brings me back to our discussion of your book. Love you, Mere!!! 😘

[@mendwithmere]

YESSSS this is one of my favourite songs

[@SavannaHennig]

❤ love your reactions

[@tiff5756]

I love seeing people cover her songs! He sounded great and I love hearing your thoughts on her songs, as someone who also analyzes them all, too. 😂

[@Leo-yh6it]

This album was released at the same time when my previous relationship ended because of a stupid fight and the line "If one thing had been different would everything be different today?" tore me apart. This song will always destroy me.

[@laaauraaa158]

I love when you react to Taylor 🫶🏼 Please react to more songs, no matter from which record. I love the whole song but „I'm doing good, I'm on some new shit“ is one of my favorite lyrics from this song.

[@leroywilliams6380]

Taylor is also speaking about regret, and not fully accepting the outcome of the failed relationship.

[@tiff5756]

Also - I actually wonder if maybe this was written about Joe, but before the permanent split, when pondering what things would be like if they were to split. “If one thing had been different”…she speaks about her concerns with being famous and how that may affect a relationship she’s in and the way she says “if you wanted me, you really should have shown” and those kinds of sentiments are expressed in “you’re losing me”…I also think it could have been inspired by Harry, too, because of the way she spoke about him not saying I love you back and the way people treated her because they were both famous, so I could see her wondering if maybe they would have worked out, had it not been for them being so famous and in the spotlight, or if there were issues with his mental health/substances, I imagine the “if one thing had been different” could apply to that, as well. There definitely seem to be themes that have been repeated in her relationships, which is really too bad, because she seems like such a kind and loyal person and she deserves someone who will give just as much back and commit to her.

Now I'm 100% sure it's about Matty

[@beckyg2604]

I don't think she's talking about going along with family expectations or the wife he chose instead of her. I think she's using "chosen family" as in the people who are with you through thick and thin, the people who become your family without the ties of biology. To me, this is a wistful song about an ex who is living their best life and wishing that there had been a place for her in that life. I think the "if you never bleed you're never gonna grow" was more self-directed and philosophical. The breakup was painful, but it was a learning experience, and she's stronger for it.

[@happyradish6886]

Have you reacted to hoax yet? It’s the song in between peace and the lakes on folklore and it is lyrically chaotic and beautiful. Highly recommend.

[@LexGomez-q1s]

React to ”listen before i go” and ”i love you” by billie eilish

[@feralsmartass]

Please react to No Body, No Crime from evermore

[@MissEnemark]

Think this is about Matty. Before she left Joe. Wondering what would have been, if they really gave it a shot. But we all know how that went, right.. He's all talk, no action. True narcissist.
