these hands had to let it go free and this love came back to me

I really thought I was done re-evaluating Haylor Lore but then “I Love You” by Alex & Sierra came up on my playlist yesterday and my 12-year-old self screeched, “NOPE IT’S NOT OVER NOW!!!!”

i think i've seen this film before

and i didn't like the ending

I had multiple jaw drop moments but the funniest was “blue dress on a boat” because after Now That We Don’t Talk and the mega yacht line I stopped to explain the Virgin Islands lore to my sister (who had been too young to remember/pay attention to that whole debacle when it actually happened. I had been in junior high and paid way too much attention to it), even pulling up the infamous blue dress boat picture to show her. I never thought it would be referenced further in any detail, the word “yacht” just gave me flashbacks and I had to catch her up. When “blue dress on a boat” showed up two songs later we had to pause the song because we were screaming so much 😂

Catching all the baby bunnies up on the Haylore has been such a mindfuck into the depths of my core memories truly.

the vault tracks!! laur!!! i think practically all of them were, as expected, haylor to the core. she dragged harry and I love It LMAO

She knew what she needed to do back then and she knew what she needed to do NOW. If you know what I mean. It’s SAFE and HILARIOUS to drag him now. SHE IS SMART AND CALCULATED ON PURPOSE. SHE IS A MASTERMIND.

ariana's we can't be friends (wait for your love) is so haylor core indirectly

I’m not familiar with it, it was written and produced by Grande, Max Martin and Ilya Salmanzadeh. Max has worked with Taylor a lot and had a writing session with Harry for HS1 but nothing from it was released.

Now that Harry seems to have gone back to a relationship mostly out of the public eye ala Hamille with Taylor Russell, does this give you any more to reflect on the Olivia pairing? I ask bc fans clearly prefer this approach, perhaps bc for many it keeps the fantasy boyfriend alive - the woman is a side character and someone they can mostly ignore.

Regardless of how real or fake holivia was there was certainly some drama and attention added directly by Olivia (vs a pr nightmare getting out of control) which the GP ate up and added to Harry’s celeb status BUT his core fans on all sides almost entirely strongly disliked. There are some shades of haylor for me in pairing Harry with a woman with her own fame/power to get him to different level of celebrity (tho for me the length of haylor “proper” is much more suggestive of an actual publicity arrangement than what happened with Olivia).

I agree that high profile dating added to Harry's celebrity status, while also adding a lot of chaos and variables, which have a lot of downsides.

But I think your framing is imagining the options as doing what will increase Harry's celebrity among the general public or keeping fans happy. I don't think Harry or his team care very much if fans are happy - I don't think that's the metric they use.

Fans - particularly the sort of very invested fans who use social media and who it's possible to know if they're happy or not - don't need to be happy to be useful. In fact I'd argue almost the opposite - the natural state of a fan is discontent - and that drives fans greater engagement than contentment ever could.

aren’t we just terrified?

Ooh Zoe you're not the only one to think folklore is Haylor coded, i think she went back to this rs cause it's the one where she never had clear answers, a clean breakup. So she's wondering over and over what could have been, and what were we ?

Also with all her exes he's having a big carreer, he's been everywhere. I'm sure he's in his feelings, pretend it's been a decade ans it doesn't matter but you know, WE know !!!

i don't think that's what folklore was, and I also know I'm not the only one to see it... like I said, I have been quite superior about it... I think that sometimes haylories have a tendency to be the loudest parts of the haylor fandom and newbies get swept in their shit. which is where we get people insisting that william bowery is really harry, even now.

I still think folklore is mostly, at its core, about losing her masters. the 1 isn't harry. it's scott. it always was and always will be.

i just think that there's some connection there between the lines of trauma and the feelings. and i think that the reason folklore (and evermore) work so well is that it gives a spot to process those little threads of connection between her hurt by making it fictional.

I think some songs and lines started with one thing in mind and became about another, and I think like the 1 started in feelings about scott and tied into feelings about harry and exile started in feelings about harry and tied into feelings about scott.... does that make sense?

have you read the daisy jones book? it’s my favorite book and daisy emotionally reminds me so much of taylor.. or at least the “young” taylor (red era more specifically). how she craves to express herself through her music and her singer-songwriting, how she’s honest and vulnerable in her music and it ended up creating her own personal hell/hurt because she had to perform those songs over and over again and reopen the wound (red tour atw). she’s the red album, yoyok, dear reader, the archer and so on personified.. in the way that daisy and billy are artistic soulmates/twin flames meant to meet but not meant to be also reminds me a little of haylor

yes! i read it a couple of weeks ago, after the show ended. there were aspects of it that reminded me so strongly of her and some of what she's gone through. obviously taylor has quite a different background, and in certain ways personality type, and she has her unique triumphs and struggles, but the passion in daisy and her ambition and her belief in her own talents and her need to express herself creatively and sing her own music and connect to the world through that art is taylor to the core. that idea that both her strength is the diaristic honesty and vulnerability of her songwriting, yet it also makes that carving into your wounds and reliving heartbreak and exposing that repeatedly on stage in front of watchful eyes dissecting everything you do. daisy's care towards people (especially young women) who are fans too, versus how awful the press is towards her and how unhesitatingly they publish that cruelty.

this also really made me think of her, even though it comes from billy:

while narratively the reason daisy learns both selflessly and self-caringly to let that flame go, it's very, "remember when you couldn't take the heat? i walked out and said, 'i'm settin' you free...'" letting him go is the right decision for everyone, and the only decision that can not only prevent more hurt, but rescue all of their futures. it's also: sometimes giving up is the strong thing.

and then daisy's growth, her maturity and her approach to love transforming, her embrace of her power, her realization of what she has to let go, her recovery, there are a lot of mirrors there even if they're not exact, the meaning underneath is connected.

i posted this but it struck me hard in the show and in the book how very similar to taylor's journey this revelation is - and even after recent events, i still believe this is true and resonant and such an important thing that's been learned (and that irl will be carried forward):

passion shouldn't only be pain, and creativity should be nurtured rather than burned to the ground in a frenzy, and love shouldn't be a source of destruction, and once you learn those things and hold fast to your voice and your value, you can face what you have to face, and hold onto what's true and good.

hold on to childlike whims and moonlight swims and your blazing self-respect.

Oh my god. You are a hard core haylor.

Just went through all of your haylor masterpost.

It just blew my brain. I'm particularly not a haylor Stan but after seeing all of this i think I believe in them.

Guilty of driving both myself and others insane (but not off any roads 🙄)

One thing I always appreciate about Taylor is that she always gives an out to her lyric about her celebrity life so that it can describe or be a metaphor for normal life. She works on two often three levels. The kissed in a crowded room lyric I think gets to the mixed reaction to Haylor and Even maybe that is was a mocking public reactionary at that time, but once the short relationship was over there was public approval for the relationship. Like everything around them talking at the Grammys, but also about how her fans treat her relationships. At this core though I think the reference is about external pressure on romantic relationships and the lyrics make me think of people playing spin the bottle. There is anxious laughter and maybe gentle mocking of two people randomly chosen to miss, but quickly that turns to applause for them kissing because they played the game.

your description of spin the bottle is really cute anon
