A Study of Good Omens and Taylor Swift Lyrics

AKA: These are the songs/lyrics from Taylor Swift songs that I connect to Good Omens (in honors of 1989 (Taylor’s Version))!!

1. YOU ARE IN LOVE (1989)

Hands down my favorite Taylor Swift song EVER.

Here are some lyrics that I think fits the Ineffable Spouses:

One look, dark room

Meant just for you

I mean…Aziphale and Crowley having to communicate through glances and touch because they can never really say they truly mean through the ages?

Time moved too fast

You play it back

Crowley literally STOPPING TIME because Aziraphale threatens to stop speaking to him!!! Simp behavior!!

You're my best friend

THEY. ARE. BEST. FRIENDS.

And you understand now why they lost their minds and fought the wars

And why I've spent my whole life tryin' to put it into words

To me, it makes sense that they wouldn’t really have a good grasp of individual love quite yet at the beginning. Angels like Aziraphale are obligated to love ALL of God’s creation, but that’s a very distant kind of love. Crowley, a demon, whose very job description details that pure love is something he cannot feel.

But as they spend more time around humans, they finally realize the quiet companionship they feel around each other is LOVE. They find love in each other, in the simple pleasures of the human world around them.

(Am I reading into this too much?? Who knows! I’m having fun, I hope you’re having fun, let’s continue)

2. Dancing With Our Hands Tied (Reputation)

I loved you in secret

Self-explanatory.

Deep blue, but you painted me golden

I think this line relates to both of them, especially recalling the Job minisode in S2E2. They were both lonely, both struggling with their faith in their respective sides but found common ground and a sense of belonging with each other!!!

I loved you in spite of

Deep fears that the world would divide us

I think this is self-explanatory again but it just needed to be said, such a good lyric.

Yeah, we were dancing

And I had a bad feeling

But we were dancing

This lyric reminds me of their Arrangement. I see a lot of people on here describing the rituals that Aziraphale and Crowley form over the years as an intricate “dance” around one another and I wholeheartedly agree.

Even though they don’t really think of each other as “hereditary enemies” (case in point: “foul fiend! After you,” from Season 1, Aziraphale stopping mid-smiting in S2E2 when he recognizes Crowley, “I trust you,” in S2E4, the Arrangement, etc…) they still dance the same lines of arguing that they are on different sides and therefore inherently different because their hands were tied (metaphorically) by their respective loyalty to Heaven or Hell.

3. Wildest Dreams (1989)

This song feels to me like it’s from Aziraphale’s point of view, if we were to relate it to the Husbands.

Exhibit A:

I thought Heaven can't help me now

Nothing lasts forever

Yeah…sounds familiar?

He's so tall and handsome as hell

I just think that this is how Aziraphale would pine over Crowley in his mind, it’s very…Austen, he would write this in his diary with a glitter pen.

I said, "No one has to know what we do"

Did someone say the Arrangement? Unlikely alliance??? Perchance.

4. Peace (folklore)

If Wildest Dreams is Aziraphale’s pining moment, then Peace is Crowley’s.

All these people think love's for show

But I would die for you in secret

Angels in heaven has no concept of love, they believe Crowley wholeheartedly when he says “you have to wait a few days and see,” and even Crowley himself thinks that love is equivalent to sheltering under the rain and sharing one sweet, perfect kiss.

But that’s not why we, the watchers, recognize that Crowley loves Aziraphale, we see that when he walks through consecrated ground and saves Aziraphale’s book!! Crowley cares!! He would do anything to make sure Aziraphale’s safe!! And that’s love!!

The devil's in the details, but you got a friend in me

THEY. ARE. FRIENDS.

5. Right Where You Left Me (evermore)

Season 2, Episode 6. Yeah.

no but it's the way for aziraphale "nothing lasts forever" meant "i'm willing to give up the bookshop if it means i can be with you safely" and for crowley it meant "nothing lasts forever, not the bookshop, not earth, not us"

#driving me bonkers like actually #i maintain that it was about safety and acceptance for aziraphale at his core. he didnt see it as trying to change crowley as such #gomens #good omens spoilers #good omens

#HARRY NO #CROWLEY THIS ISNT FUNNY #CROWLEYYYYYYYY #this was hilarious in my head #it's even more hilarious now #don't worry Harry is safe #Crowley is just simply in the mood for giving his angel a teensy weensy heart attack #or maybe he's just processing the question #maybe he's trying to locate the rabbit by using his ✨snaky sense✨#nahhh he knows where the rabbit is he's just messing around #(he had to watch Aziraphale practice his amazing magic tricks for the entire week leading up to this)#(can you blame him for doing some ✨magic tricks✨ of his own)#(he's a fast learner okay)#(he sure can make rabbits disappear)#(THE RABBIT IS FINE I SWEAR)#(YOU HAVE TO BELIEVE ME)#(WHEN HAVE I EVER LIED TO YOU)#(AM I NOT TRUSTWORTHY GUYS?????)#Crowley what do you mean “blelele”#good omens #crowley #aziraphale #ineffable idiots #ineffable husbands #aziracrow #harry the rabbit

it's all leading to a little cottage in the South Downs

#good omens #ineffable husbands #aziracrow #aziraphale #crowley #I've been trying to redraw this one since I sketched it in February 2020 #and only just finally got it to cooperate with me #I'm glad I stuck with it #they deserve all the quiet domestic moments

good omens the book, 1990: see, queen is so ubiquitous in london these days that if you leave a tape in a car for too long, it'll inevitably morph into a best of queen tape. which is why their megahits are playing in crowley's bentley all the time! isn't that a funny and topical joke?

good omens the show, 2019-2023: yeah crowley's car has a hands-free call system and also only plays cassette tapes. yeah it's whatever don't think about it. what's an incredibly earnest and passionate queen love song we can play during this scene where crowley tries urgently to reach aziraphale

#good omens #this is so funny to me. they have it's a hard life in s1e1 when he's trying to call aziraphale about armageddon #you're my best friend in s1e5 when he's racing to the bookshop to see him #good old-fashioned loverboy in s2e1 when he's racing to the bookshop to help aziraphale stay safe while hiding gabriel.#in the 90s it would've been a joke about how everywhere queen was. today it's just like. this gay loser's car knows about his crush #and deliberately plays cheesy classic love songs when he's going to see him to bug him about it #and he's just accepted it into his life. i love it #AND somebody to love after he's presumed aziraphale's dead! i know that was diegetic but the bentley WOULD. you know it would

An in no way definitive list of the things in Good Omens 2 that haunt my dreams.

The fast forwarding/rewinding sound effect in Ep1 when we are zooming in on the bookshop for the first time when Aziraphale receives Maggie's letter.

The double car honk that Aziraphale distinctly and worriedly looks out of Maggies record shop window toward. When else do we hear double car honks? 1. When Gabriel arrives in Soho, 2. when Muriel arrives in Soho, 3.???

When Shax threatens Crowley in the Bentley the plants in the backseat start shaking and squealing with fear.

The shattering/tinkling sound effect when Aziraphale gets out of the Bentley after returning from Edinburgh. Then when it happens the second time he looks confusedly back towards the noise. WHAT IS IT.

The presence/absence of Gabriel's statues cross in his flashback sequence.

The worth of a life, 5 pounds vs 90 guineas in 1827; 7 pounds 5 shillings vs 27 pounds 5 shillings in 1941. (adding this gem from @unabashedlyshadowynightmare : the cost of a flavoured latte in present day)

"high fidelity" and it being mentioned many times

The puppet resembling Crowley being named "Marv McGreedy" and the one resembling Aziraphale being named "Rodney Ryan".

The fact that Crowley revealed the body swap to Gabriel.

Shax bringing Crowley his mail at the ball.

#good omens 2 #good omens #good omens meta #michael sheen #crowley #david tennant #aziraphale #crowley x aziraphale #good omens theories #good omens clues #have this to chew on while i mull over the next POV post #its giving me troubles #1941 is proving to be weird and idk how to write about it #its outlined but i’m hitting a block when i try to actually string it all together

Rewatching The Pain — Aziraphale so clearly doesn’t want to go back to Heaven. He refuses the Metatron point blank. He doesn’t waver until he tells him he can bring Crowley; he can make Crowley safe. (And Earth! All the people! But Aziraphale doesn’t ask for any details on that! He wants to know what they can do for Crowley.)

And then when Crowley won’t go, Aziraphale comes within half a stammer of refusing to go too. And it makes me remember that Crowley immediately abandoning his plan of running to Alpha Centauri once he thought Aziraphale was dead. He didn’t care about saving his own skin. They don’t really want to leave Earth, either of them; but they very, very badly want to keep each other safe.

#which makes me wonder if we’re going to see Aziraphale popping in every three days or so #to try and get Crowley to reconsider #the same as Crowley shows up panicking in the Bentley trying to get Aziraphale to run away a second time #immediately after the bandstand #they won’t be okay till they know the other is okay #good omens #good omens 2

if i see one more person try to claim aziraphale doesn’t love crowley as much as crowley loves aziraphale i will throw hands.

say it with me: just because they show & express their love for each other differently doesn’t mean one of them loves the other more

#some of y’all will do anything to make aziraphale the bad guy and honestly i’m tired of it #like yes i know anthony “acts of service’’ crowley is out here wearing his love on his sleeve #but if you for one second try to convince me aziraphale did not INVENT heart eyes i don’t know what to say to you #aziraphale is so fucking in love it’s insane #y’all were not paying any attention if you think aziraphale doesn’t love crowley back #i will not tolerate aziraphale slander any longer #aziraphale apologist #anthony j crowley #crowley #aziraphale #aziracrow #ineffable husbands #good omens #ineffable wives

I've always loved the thought of their Arrangement being sealed as a handfasting (so they've technically been married for centuries)

#good omens #ineffable husbands #aziraphale #crowley #aziracrow #ineffable muffins #I've actually been trying to make this one work since last May #and it just finally decided to cooperate with me #always save your bad sketches #they'll come around and work out eventually
