What Everyone Missed in Taylor Swift's Grammy Interview

We’re putting our minds together to analyze every scrap of detail and information Taylor Swift has given in this ICONIC Grammy’s interview. After a week of investigating, we’re ready to share our conclusions which are: DEBUT (TAYLOR’S VERSION) IS COMING!! And a potential, wider return to country music is most certainly on the cards. 

We Were Wrong About Lover. Here’s The Reckoning.

7 years ago, Taylor Swift released what we assumed was the low quality of her career: a sprawling, twinkly, bleep-blooping record with an expansive thesis statement. This is all about everything that I love…from my boyfriend, Joe Alwyn, who won’t talk to me, to my mother, to my friends, to the gays, and also one thing I really hate: the political climate. Taylor’s turn towards “activism” made for some humiliating marketing faux pas with ME!, You Need To Calm Down, and Only The Young…but there’s PLENTY to admire here. Has anyone heard of a little song called CRUEL SUMMER?

Jake Gyllenhaal Ruined The Red Era For Taylor. We Have Receipts.

JOIN US FOR WEEKLY BONUS EPISODES ON PATREON: https://www.patreon.com/swiftologist MANY years before All Too Well (10 Minute Version)  broke the internet, Taylor Swift spent three months dating Jake Gyllenhaal...and upon reflection, we'd argue it's the single most important relationship of her career, creatively.  We rebuild the 2010 timeline: the sudden PDA, the tabloid ambush, the age-gap commentary, and the decade it took for the fallout to turn into a ten-minute song. There are also many TERRIFYING paralels to another intense 3 month situationship...so, if you've ever wondered how a short-lived 2010 romance became the emotional backbone of an entire album, the bone collectors are here with every receipt.

Phone a Snake: Daughter From Music Fashion and Petal Hell

We opened the hotline for your most unpopular opinions on the new Gracie Abrams, Ariana Grande, and Charli XCX records, and you did not hold back. We're getting into why "gifted songwriter" might be the most overused compliment in pop right now, whether Ariana's era is giving main pop girl or giving cosplay, and the uncomfortable stat that Charli XCX got outsold by Morgan Wallen. This was a truly LOCA episode!! But the townspeople have spoken...
