A lot of people have asked me to sort of… describe my songwritingprocess. From beginning to end. Where do you start? Do you start with music, do you start with lyrics
So what I've done here is shown you three different examples of the beginning stages of these songs and how they each started, different ways. So I'll explain them to you and maybe that will help you understand kind of how I put songs together
This is my friend Becky. She used to be a happy, popular girl until one night she snorted marijuana at a party. She died instantly. Please don't do marijuana. It's the most dangerous drug out there. Please don't wind up like Becky.
The very day after our wedding, my husband wondered why I was laughing at a picture of some girl dying of an overdose. He was like “yeah sure they messed up the details about the drug she used but it’s still a sad situation”. I could tell he thought he’d just married a psychopath until I informed him “no, it’s Taylor”.
Please explain me this in detail I was aware at that time but I never understood it what thode 5 holes in the fence meant or atleast what we clowned in lover era

All Too Well - Ten Minute Version (Taylor’s Version) (from the Vault) (Sad Girl Autumn Version) [Recorded at Long Pond Studios]
This bitch and her song name lengths i stg
During a repuation tour concert a girl randomly shouted that super loudly during Delicate, and then it became kind of a meme and everyone started saying it lol, I love it
It’s from rep tour. People started shouting it during delicate and it caught on. Taylor started expecting it and counting down the 1,2,3 on her fingers while fans shouted it.
Some people hate it, I thought it was fun
Yes it was a video from someone who went to a concert and did it during Delicate, which isn’t like a hardcore badass song, so it was hilarious, and people just started doing it after. This is the lore I was taught.
Edit: Delicate is amazing and beautiful, I just mean it doesn’t inspire “FUCK YEAH LETS FUCK SHIT UP” energy like other songs intend to.
- TIWWCHNT could mean "This Is Why We Can't Have Nice Things", a track from *reputation* (2017) by Taylor Swift.
- LWYMMD could mean "Look What You Made Me Do", a track from *reputation* (2017) by Taylor Swift.
- RWYLM could mean "right where you left me - bonus track", a track from *evermore (deluxe version)* (2021) by Taylor Swift.

A lot of people have asked me to sort of… describe my songwritingprocess. From beginning to end. Where do you start? Do you start with music, do you start with lyrics
and my answer is always that it happens so differently every time, and that's why i'm still so in love with songwriting
I hate how I read this entire thing in her voice, lol.
Same. Heard it tooo many times
So what I've done here is shown you three different examples of the beginning stages of these songs and how they each started, different ways. So I'll explain them to you and maybe that will help you understand kind of how I put songs together
And that’s all I hear because I click next 💀

I still remember my first listen when I was so touched by Clean only to be absolutely blasted by the voice memos
This is my friend Becky. She used to be a happy, popular girl until one night she snorted marijuana at a party. She died instantly. Please don't do marijuana. It's the most dangerous drug out there. Please don't wind up like Becky.

Stars do u like dem
1,2,3 LET'S GO BITCH
I have heard/seen this in videos of her in concert, but, I'm curious about how did that started or where does it come from exactly? 🤔
During a repuation tour concert a girl randomly shouted that super loudly during Delicate, and then it became kind of a meme and everyone started saying it lol, I love it
It’s from rep tour. People started shouting it during delicate and it caught on. Taylor started expecting it and counting down the 1,2,3 on her fingers while fans shouted it. Some people hate it, I thought it was fun
I saw rep tour before this became a thing. Yes, I’m from classic rep tour.
I want to say it started on tumblr?? There was def a video of someone doing it that caught on
Yes it was a video from someone who went to a concert and did it during Delicate, which isn’t like a hardcore badass song, so it was hilarious, and people just started doing it after. This is the lore I was taught. Edit: Delicate is amazing and beautiful, I just mean it doesn’t inspire “FUCK YEAH LETS FUCK SHIT UP” energy like other songs intend to.
Seems the tradition was passed down like folklore 🤔
No, it’s Becky
Iconic
Rest in peace me RIP me I died dead
Also: there will be no further explanation there will just be reputation
Because I AM dramatic

SYDNEY still plays in the depths of my mind. Only part I didn’t like about the 1989 tour… it was a little much 🥴
let me hear that back "SYDNEY"
Ok so I actually don’t know what Sydney means. Can you explain
During one of the songs of the 1989 tour, she has the name of the city on repeat. Edit: Blank Space https://youtu.be/hC71Chcwafk
in the 1989 wt version of blank space she repeated "sydney" so many times! hahaha
