I want someone smart to make sense of IDWLF/Dress and I thnk Mine/Starlight is pretty self evident
okay so. i think with idwlf you have two dueling meta narratives: 1) it’s about the core tension at the start of fifty shades darker. will these two exes get back together? and then they get back together. 2) taylor had just decided to get together with joe, a decision she agonized over while having a very charged friendship with him for about five months. for the purposes of this ask, i’ll be focusing mostly on the second narrative, but it is important to remember the first— i don’t know how much of this was intentionally about her, and how much she accidentally revealed about her real emotions while trying to tell a fictional story.
that being said, idwlf parallels pretty heavily with the rest of reputation, and other songs about that period— been sitting eyes wide open behind these four walls hoping you’d call, phone lights up my nightstand in the black, wondering if a dodged a bullet or you passed right by rare as a glimmer of a comet in the sky, i’m drunk in the back of a car and now i’m in a cab i tell ‘em where your place is. it has that same tension of is this a good idea? am i letting something real go by? can i chose love when i’ve been burned so many times before?
for dress specifically, there’s some nice parallels.
i’ve been looking sad in all the nicest places, i see you around in all these empty faces -> our secret moments in a crowded room, they’ve got no idea about me and you
i just wanna keep calling your name until you come back home -> carve your name into my bedpost -> say my name and everything just stops
wondering if i dodged a bullet or just lost the love of my life -> if i get burned at least we were electrified -> i don’t wanna live forever, cause i know i’ll be living in vain
in the same way mine and starlight make sense, idwlf and dress make sense: one is about having that first glance of “can this be a real thing?” one is about sustaining that commitment in a long term way. starlight and mine are from a younger perspective, while idwlf and dress are a bit more mature, more tortured. but they’re all tied together by being a flight risk with a fear of falling… and then falling anyway
#asks*#i think i had an ask months ago being like ITS JUST REPUTATION IN THREE MINUTES THATS#ITS CRUEL SUMMER WRITTEN DURING SAID CRUEL SUMMER

I Did Something Bad (on 29 April 2016)
Taylor wrote Gorgeous, Delicate and Did Something Bad around the same time (see Making of Video), there were all recorded in September but refer to earlier events. In the 29 April 2023 Eras show Taylor added High Infidelity to this story which refers to 29 April.
Timeline
See 2016 timeline
2 January: Harry is on a Yacht with Kendall in the red shirt.
2 February: Harry wore this blue St Laurent shirt on his birthday
11 February - Kanye releases Famous, Taylor & Harry seen in LA
20 February Harry wrote Sweet Creature on the 20th
21 February Calvin started Ole, a bitter song about about cheating. CH wore Harry's shirt in the MV and the red one was included also
28 February: Harry Tweeted you can shake an apple off a tree. His instagram had been B&W for 2 years since OOTW was released October 2014. He posted a colour photo on the 25 Feb 2016. It stayed colour from 7 May.
March 15 - Taylor and Calvin have heavily photographed beach holiday. She repeats this move in 2018 with Joe.
April 29 - Taylor refers to an affair on this date in High Infidelity. as HS and TS were both in LA on that date. Taylor and Kendall were at Gigi Hadid's birthday the night before. Harry's Kiwi music video also includes a kid dressed like Taylor on that night.
May 2 - the met gala was the key date while she was with Joe. On midnights she changed it to 29 April. CH and TS were barely seen together in 2016 and this seems it was over in April. Harry left to shoot Dunkirk. Taylor wrote and recorded IDWLF
29 April 2017 - Our boy celebrated the anniversary of this particular secret rendezvous by getting papped 3 times in the same shirt. They also released Me! and the HH tracklisting on that date.
There is a great detailed post about this here.
Rattata sound
The Rattata sound at the end of I did something bad is also suspiciously similar to a Rakaka sound in a leaked Harry Styles song. In Harry's song, he has a secret rendezvous with an ex who phones him unexpectedly and he picks up on the way home.
This raises a question on the timing of the events of Pick You Up and Did Something Bad, PYU refers to his sister’s birthday which is in December, they were at the VS show 3 December 2014, the songs may be about different days. Taylor was in Australia on Gemma’s birthday 2015. Now we don’t talk seems like they weren’t talking in January.
Calvin's bitter song was' Reggae themed - Ole,
Lyrics
Taylor has said she was inspired by the Stark Sisters in not having remorse for actions.
I never trust a narcissist
But they love me
So I play 'em like a violin
And I make it look oh so easy
...
If a man talks shit, then I owe him nothing
I don't regret it one bit, 'cause he had it coming
The opening verses set a vengeful mood and highlight the grievance TS had over the Narcissist (CH) taking credit for her work on This is what you came for.
I never trust a playboy
But they love me
So I fly him all around the world
And I let them think they saved me
They never see it comin'
What I do next
This is how the world works
You gotta leave before you get left
Here TS has also referred to HS as a playboy who wanted to save her and sets the mood for how angry she feels at the situation..
They're burning all the witches, even if you aren't one
They got their pitchforks and proof
Their receipts and reasons
They're burning all the witches, even if you aren't one
So light me up (light me up), light me up (light me up)
'they're burning all the witches' also appears on the stairs in the video for Ready for It, another song in the first half of the album that are about HS.
In later songs, Adore You Harry includes "I'd walk the fire for you"
2016 and Reputation posts.

UP ALL NIGHT- more than this and gotta be you
TAKE ME HOME- over again and back for you
MIDNIGHT MEMORIES- don't forget where you belong and strong
FOUR- clouds and where do broken heart go
MADE IN THE AM- AM and end of the day
............................................................................................................
LOUIS (this man makes it so hard to pick a favourite song)- change and we made it
HARRY- matilda and from the dining table
NIALL- put a little love on me and science
ZAYN- tightrope and idwlf
LIAM- remember and strip that down

okay (being really discerning and excluding nights where i wasn’t equally excited about both songs) here are my top five surprise song pairings thus far, in no particular order:
glendale n1 (tim mcgraw, mirrorball)
glendale n2 (this is me trying, state of grace)
metlife n2 (holy ground, false god)
chicago n2 (you all over me, idwlf)
pittsburgh n3 (seven, the story of us)
honorable mention goes to nashville n2 (ootw, fifteen)
#obvs i would've loved to hear wcs/high infidelity/hits different/treacherous/gold rush#but if you go down that rabbit hole it's like. every night sdhjfsjdhfjdhfd#vi is typing...

Sooooo, um... Chicago has been wild... I Wish You Would, The Lakes, You All Over Me, IDWLF. Have we maybe moved into the next post break-up stage - misty-eyed feels? Plz I hope to god yes (and hopefully w/out certain new Brit pastimes). At least Ours is already used up... my father hates your tattoos but "this love is ours" would have been extra chaotic lol
I think we’ve been seeing all the stages of grief pop up all over the place from night to night. These things don’t often move cyclically in a clear fashion but can shift quickly and unexpectedly all throughout the mourning and healing process.
