People with regular lives marry, have children, some with special needs, family illnesses and deaths, stressful or boring or underpaying jobs, career changes, relocations, money problems etc. etc. But that’s regular people. She clearly leads an extraordinary life and doesn’t have to deal with any of that day to day. Good for her! I honestly would much rather be dating the hottest men in the world, partying with stars and writing poetry till 2am than dealing with the above mentioned mundane stuff…for the rest of my life if I could


She's clearly not happy with her "extraordinary" life.

I feel badly for her. She's in her mid 30's and stuck in a high school, perpetual victim mentality.

I share your concern.

I basically grew up with Taylor Swift's music. She's 34 and I'm 33. She's from Nashville and I grew up in Franklin, TN (~30 mins away). I went to several of her shows way back when after her debut album came out. I've been to all the tours. I'm a fan, etc, etc.

But the Easter eggs are getting to be too much to keep up with. I also wish she'd stop singing about high school or relating things back to high school. HS for her has been over for 25 years. It's time to move on.


Nope, I'm 44 and love them b/c I can discuss with my teen... makes for fun conversations.

I guess you don't get the point of "So High School". Also, unless she was 8 at graduation, she did not finish HS 25 years ago lol.


Preteens or younger. Teens don't listen to Taylor.


NP. So…you have no teens in your life?

I'm nearly the same age as Taylor and you nailed it growing up on her music. It worked in my late teens and 20s, but now her peers have grown up and matured enough to realize that break ups happen, relationships end, and don't require a diss track everytime.

Her peers have families, marriages, relationships without marriage, break ups and have learned to deal with life while she hasn't. That's the price of fame.

It is poetic justice that after all the shake if off and you need to calm down crap that Taylor and her fans sell as ways to get over things, she finally has her reckoning that yelling at people to suck it up doesn’t work.

It’s not about anybody specific nor is Florida.


Fortnight is all about Matt Healy. She basically spells it out in the video.


No it’s generally about breakups



Then why did she make the video almost identical to 1975 vid?


Fortnight is 100% about Matty. There are many references. I like the 1975s, have seen some of their videos over the years and saw a lot of clues in her lyrics and that video that refer to him.

Most of the album is abt MH. Fans theorize that she even wrote Alchemy about him and the time she performed AntiHero at his band’s concert where he referred to her as “queen”. Then she quickly changed a few lines this year before releasing the album and added references to touchdowns so it’s not totally obvious how little Kelce matters to her.

If Matty wanted her back tomorrow, she would probably go to him. In her own lyrics, “imgonnangetyouback” and I choose you, “religiously.”


She's always had questionable taste in men, but MH is the worst.

OMG Alexandra Petri’s take was Hilarious! She had tortured poets “review” the album.

This one stuck with me.


Dante: I liked how long “Tortured Poets Department” was! 3 more songs and it would have been tied with the Inferno! Not a comment on the contents just a comment on the length!
