Notes taken during Eras Tour Paris N1 livestream

I like the new Lover outfit(s). I've been waiting for Taylor to embrace orange more so that was nice to see! Sad about The Archer getting cut but I guess I get it?

Nice to see the silver brought back from the Fearless tour. Not much else to say about that era.

Red third now, okay. Nice shirt lol and also like the new bodysuit! I don't care for most of the inclusions in this era tbh since it's mostly the singles and the majority of Red's singles are mid IMO. And All Too Well 10 Minute Version staying is surely going to end up pissing me off in the long run when we find out what else is cut.

I like the new Speak Now dress but Long Live being cut is AWFUL, like there were only two songs in this era to begin with, cut something from Red instead ffs. (I swear I do like Red but the album is better than the way it's represented on this tour.)

Reputation is the same which I'm cool with since I liked the way that era was to begin with!

I've been predicting Folkmore combined which I'm not happy about but I think this is it. Pretty yellow dress. Glad Cardgian is safe but she's singing it on the roof and I do prefer Invisible String or The One. :( Glad all three triangle songs are safe because it's weird to do some but not the others especially if she's talking about that storyline in the Betty speech. Some of them were chopped down but that's okay, I guess.

Okay yeah Champagne Problems so a combo. I knew that one was gonna be safe from the rehearsal footage. Few more Folklore songs...okay finally more Evermore! Marjorie and Willow! It would have been weird for her to cut either of those (for different reasons). But TLGAD and Tolerate It are pretty big losses. I don't LOVE Tolerate It but the performance was different from anything else on the tour.

1989, nothing cut. (Something really should have been cut from both this and Red, but it probably would have been Wildest Dreams which is one I really love so glad it's safe!) I don't like the new outfit because of the colors looking strange together in this context.

TTPD looks like the dancers are prisoners for the first part of the set which eh, don't really love how basic the outfits are. Taylor's dress with the poetry is nice though (can't wait for someone with eagle eyes to decipher it!). Happy that So High School was included, if only for a bit, to get that Anthology rep in there. Pleasantly surprised by WAOLOM because people had me convinved she'd destroy her voice if she did it (hoping they're wrong lol). Some of these song choices are dull af (both Fortnight and Down Bad for a stadium show, really?) But LOVE the intro and performance of ICDIWABH! I kind of think this should have been the new finale set but I get why it's being kept the same.

Nice new dress for surprise songs. Paris was a predictable choice and I figured the other would be from TTPD, but was expecting an anthology track.

I love the Midnights set (surprising since the album isn't my fave) but if she doesn't cut something from it I'm gonna be annoyed. And that something better not be Vigilante Shit. Aaaaand the whole thing remains intact.

TLDR: The best eras (literally my top 4 albums were the ones that lost songs and my top 2 were combined) were chopped down and the more basic (dare I say mid) ones remain completely intact making the tour a bit more of a generic pop show on the whole. I understand cuts needed to happen but the wrong ones were made IMO.

I'm making a playlist of songs that I think Taylor wrote about Karlie and always get caught up in the sadness storm in Folklore/Evermore. I find both pretty hard to listen to, especially if the lens is that Karlie broke Taylor's heart and/or vice versa. My sad parasocial heart can't come from the romantic highs of Reputation and Lover and then think that the two had a huge, heartbreaking fallout. LOL That said, I pretty much treat your lyrical analyses as gospel, so I was wondering if you had a list of the FolkEvermore songs that you think are about Karlie. I think maybe I can eventually listen to the albums in full when I know that the sadness isn't just about Karlie seemingly betraying Taylor and Taylor's heart smashing into pieces. (I do know that the albums are also heavily influenced by the Masters Heist, staying in the closet, and maybe even some of the demons TS has with her dad. I'm sure the pandemic also played a part in all the sadness.)

So yeah, I'm a weird consumer of music. Sad songs make me sob, and I don't love that feeling, haha. So I'm the rare fan who gets too depressed listening to those albums.

Hello 👋🏼 and ok, this is kinda long so let me go bit by bit.

If you want, I can give you some of my suggestions of which folklore/evermore songs should go on a kaylor playlist, but that's only based on my interpretation. Will do at the end.

Thanks for the compliment on my lyrical analysis, I love doing these, but please don't take them as gospel.

A lot of people mistake the acoustic/low production nature of folklore and evermore as sadness, and don't get me wrong, some of these songs are gut wrenchingly sad, but just because a song is slow and acoustic doesn't automatically make it sad. Cardigan is very much a happy end song, TLGAD is super fun (imo), so is No Body, No Crime, and Invisible String. But yes, some of these songs are pretty devastating. Reputation definitely got the 'honeymoon phase' love songs, but Lover had False God and Afterglow on it (and the Archer!), so I'd say that already showed the reality of long-term relationships pretty well, and they're just not all sunshine and rainbows forever.

I don't think a single song on these albums suggests that Karlie broke Taylor's heart...? If anything, Taylor always paints herself as the guilty one/the coward when it comes to that relationship. I think there were definitely insecurities and rough patches that show up in some songs, but the real pain is in working through the 2019 stuff, which is mostly about losing your life's work and someone who was like a father figure.

And you're not weird for consuming music with emotion, good art is supposed to make you feel things :)

OK, so, here's my additions for a kaylor playlist from folkmore (songs that I associate with them): cardigan, illicit affairs, invisible string, betty, peace, the lakes, willow, champagne problems, ivy, cowboy like me, and gold rush.

I dont know if this has been done yet but taylor calling folklore and evermore sisters and karlie being a literal twin from her dreams in it's time to go has been itching in the back of my brain and um...

The 1 into willow

Cardigan into champagne problems

TLGAD into gold rush

exile into tis the damn season

my tears ricochet into tolerate it

mirrorball into no body no crime

seven into happiness

august into Dorothea

this is me trying into coney island

illicit affairs into ivy

invisible string into cowboy like me

mad woman into long story short

epiphany into Marjorie

betty into closure

peace into evermore

hoax into right where you left me

the lakes into its time to go

this fits perfectly with the thematic difference of folklore being in the middle of the woods and evermore being outside of the woods looking back retrospectively at it all for what it actually was or what it became.

fav lines from each folklore song for the bday!

the 1:

If one thing had been different

Would everything be different today?

cardigan:

a friend to all is a friend to none

tlgad:

Filled the pool with champagne and swam with the big names

And blew through the money on the boys and the ballet

exile:

I'm not your problem anymore

So who am I offending now?

my tears ricochet:

And I can go anywhere I want

Anywhere I want, just not home

and (bc its one of my favs):

You had to kill me, but it killed you just the same

mirrorball:

I’ve never been a natural

all I do is try, try, try

seven:

and though I can’t recall your face

I still got love for you

august:

Back when we were still changin' for the better

Wanting was enough

For me, it was enough

this is me trying:

They told me all my cages were mental

so I got wasted like all my potential

illicit affairs (my favorite):

And you know damn well

For you I would ruin myself

A million little times

invisible string:

Chains around my demons, wool to brave the seasons

One single thread of gold tied me to you

mad woman:

It's obvious that wanting me dead has really brought you two together

epiphany:

Holds your hand through plastic now

"Doc, I think she's crashing out"

betty:

She said "James, get in, let's drive"

peace:

I'd give you my sunshine, give you my best

But the rain is always gonna come if you're standing with me

hoax:

You knew the hero died, so what's the movie for?

I’ve been thinking about folklore/evermore as sisters, so I’ve paired each song from folklore with one from the evermore. My pairings are based on one or more of theme/lyrics/story/music/sound/just a general feeling that certain songs are sisters...... this is what I’ve come up with—comment/tag your thoughts, as well!!

the 1 = ‘tis the damn season

cardigan = willow

tlgad = dorothea

exile = coney island

my tears ricochet = closure

mirrorball = champagne problems

seven = gold rush

august = ivy

this is me trying = tolerate it

illicit affairs = cowboy like me

invisible string = long story short

mad woman = right where you left me

epiphany = marjorie

betty = no body, no crime

peace = happiness

hoax = evermore

the lakes = it’s time to go

IVY EVERMORE FAV CLUB!! i think marjorie and closure are the other two in my top three for that album. (champagne problems and happiness gets an honorable mention). my folklore fav has to be epiphany or mirrorball, but this is me trying, betty, and the last great american dynasty make up the rest of the top five

I like mirrorball but its not relatable enough for me to really like it 😭 the only one from your top five i also really like is tlgad

okay so i’ve thought about it and it’s not a perfect list but here are the evermore songs i believe parallel folklore

willow >>> cardigan

champagne problems >>> this is me trying

gold rush >>> mirrorball

tis the damn season >>> august

tolerate it >>> my tears ricochet

no body no crime >>> tlgad

happiness >>> hoax

dorothea >>> betty

coney island >>> exile

ivy >>> illicit affairs

cowboy like me >>> invisible string

long story short >>> the 1

marjorie >>> epiphany

closure >>> mad woman

evermore >>> peace

#folklore #evermore #parallels #i genuinely think mtr parallels happiness more #but tolerate it doesn’t parallel hoax #so here we are #taylor swift

I can tell the songs that are purely fictional on both evermore and folklore.

- Betty

- Dorthea

- cardigan

- august

I feel like there is more.. I can’t think… lol

ehh i honestly think folklore and evermore were all characters that taylor used to imagine different lives for herself (dorothea, ttds, champagne problems), scenarios in which she could right wrongs (mad woman, mtr, maybe the cardigan trio), other "folklore" that she felt made her who she is (tlgad, marjorie, the lakes), and her own stories... told through metaphors, which she's ALWAYS done, but never in a record that she explicitly stated was partly fictional.

so honestly i don't think any song is "pure fiction." we may just be splitting hairs or getting semantic here... but i also do believe taylor drew from her own experiences for betty, cardigan, august, and dorothea.
