Matt Healy was no transition. She has been in love with him for years. She probably left Joe for him too. Then the fans, media, everyone dragged him through the mud and the guy couldn’t take the heat and walked out. Can’t blame him, not everyone wants that kind of scrutiny into their past (and his is wild!) and into their every move.

These are of the songs from the past decade that are likely about him, in addition to the ones on the new album:

The One, Cardigan, Question ?, Illicit Affairs, Dancing With Our Hands Tied, End Game, Glitch, Labyrinth, Maroon, Death By a Thousand Cuts, Daylight, Ready For It, Don’t Blame Me, Now That We Don’t Talk, August, This is Me Trying, Cowboy Like Me, Snow on the Beach, August, Gold Rush, Ivy, Closure, Exile, Cornelia Street, False God, So It Goes, maybe Cruel Summer…and who knows how many others.

What? How do you know this?? She was with Joe when she wrote those songs. You are making stuff up.

Wasn’t the purpose of the album to be cathartic and a form of healing for herself? Couldn’t she have put all those feelings out there as a way to let them go, to say this is how I once felt but that chapter is closed and over? She herself wrote words to that effect.





Of course she has to say this. What is the alternative? Hey, I am still in love with Matty Healy, who I have been dreaming about and exchanging love lyrics with for a decade, but he won't return my calls and is scared of my rabid fans. Thank goodness at least I have a high profile boyfriend to parade around and make Matty and all those other exes see what they are missing out on and how happy I can be without him. By the way, I need massive amounts of alcohol to go through this farce on a daily basis.
Another fortnight lost in America....

Here’s my take. Taylor is emotionally stunted. She is happy with Travis because he does take her back to what she imagined high school would be like. He has the additional bonus of not being overwhelmed by her celebrity. It may actually work.


The album is *primarily* sad songs about things not working out with the one who had “haunted her so stunningly.”
Listen to the song Guilty as Sin to understand where her heart is.
She and Matty had pined for each other for a very long time.
There is one sad song, So Long, London about Joe. No songs about Travis on the main album.


loml and the black dog are joe as well. not to mention the entire reputation and lover albums and tracks on folklore, evermore and midnights.

the alchemy and so high school are travis. i feel like the alchemy sounds forced though and makes me question how long that relationship will last.


Honest question-is there a song that isn't about a guy?


Yes. "Marjorie" and "The Last Great American Dynasty" are two.

There's a thing called "Google."



DP. Two of my most favorite songs ever. I do wish she'd write more about other people, fictional or real. Just not herself and her constant breakups.

The 1975s fan here. Matty's band. These two brilliant poets have been exchange secret lyrical messages for a long time. How you can one listen to this and not think of Fortnight & Guilty as Sin or vice versa, is beyond me.

Wow she wasn't hiding who it was about at all LOL. I would have never suspected Matty of all people would be her end game.

If she’s in love with MH then poor taste in men.


Some people are like that. Some grow out of it. Some don't.

There is no need to grow out of intense love, deep connection, the chase, the longing and flirting with songs back and forth. These are the moments that make life worth living! Taylor doesn’t need a partner to help with earning and domestic chores for example, that’s been taken care of a long time ago. She wants butterflies and weak knees and messy top kisses and fireworks and pontificating and writing poetry all night. Matty can give her all that and more (my bedsheets are ablaze she wrote

These two need to get over their pride and prejudice and find their way back to each other. I am too invested now in this epic, clandestine love story and would love to see it through.

Maybe go read a few Colleen Hoover books. Same plots and steamy scenes but you get an immediate ending.

Yes but if they settled down that hormone/chemical infused phase would die down. It does for everyone in 2-4 years. It’s basin biology.

The trade-off of course is that real love, long-term relationships can be quite fulfilling and wonderful. But it is a stability and not constant moments of adrenaline and dopamine and passion.

Not everyone wants that, or wants that in their 30s. She might want it later or not at all.

She an Travis make much more sense, starting with the fact that they are both from the Rust Belt.


Matty is dark & twisted, but also deep and intellectual. Taylor is smart too. Travis is not. It's hard going from deep to clown. Btdt. It doesn't work long term.


Actually it is exactly what works long term. He is normal. She needs normal or will end up like Elvis, MJ, Prince -- a train wreck. He is also smart. You cannot be in the NFL today in a skill position and not be smart. Her smarts are limited because of her real lack of education.


Wow. Classist much? You think 'real education' can only be obtained in a university setting? Just what do you think Taylor would learn from college? A degree in creative writing, perhaps, or music, or songwriting?


Taylor Swift is basically Britney Spears with UMC parents. Her growth is stunted, and it shows. She'd benefit from both a formal education and some real therapy.


She is also surrounded by sycophantic grifters, like this Jack weirdo. The same Jack weirdo who set her up with that creep Matty. It seems like people around her are plying her with booze and trying to pervert her.

Wow. Do you do readings for other people? Even though you don't know her, you sure seem to have unearthly knowledge of Taylor's psyche and life.

FF 5 years and it would be a trainwreck. Travis is so much better for her.
