[quote=Anonymous]I just can’t with the “midnights is a breakup album” =her and joe were done. 
During the announcement of Midnights she told us exactly what it was, a series of stories from over her life. This makes perfect sense as she was also, presumably, in the middle of re-recording Debut-reputation. So already in a reflective space. Some of those stories are about past relationships ( Would’ve Could’ve Should’ve, Midnight Rain, Question…).
We all know that a long term relationship doesn’t end overnight. While she was reflecting and writing she was likely also processing the breakdown of relationship she was in. Was it Springsteen who said he didn’t realize an album was about the falling apart of his marriage until it was over? I think this is a similar situation. The 2 exceptions to that are 2 tracks that were not part of the original drop, Hits Different (target only but probably produced later than the original tracks) and You’re Losing Me. 
Maroon is about JG (Red era, maroon, nyc)
Question…? is Harry styles (out of the woods sampling, times square midnight kiss)
Would’ve Could’ve Should’ve is John Mayer (definitely the worst ex)
The Great War is likely Joe, but notably they survive the war so it was a previous fight. 
Sorry, I’ve gone on a whole thing about this but the retconning fans do on this drives me nuts.[/quote]
