Kinda Obsessed With How You Can Hear The Rain

OOHHHH!! 🤭😍👶

Do with it what you will 😇

😂😂😂

Welp, Taylor has cause a new ship for the flaky gaylors who thinks she dates everyone she steps out with.

😏

Not that I would be against Sophie and Taylor, but damn, Gaylors are just as bad as hetlors and the media.

lord how many ships does tophie make 💀

Kaylor in Times Square, NYC. How extra can they be?

Notice also the giraffe in Taylor’s ad?

😬

Reminder of the time that Karlie was happy to tell “baaaabe” about Dita being behind her. 🙈

sure, we could all focus on analyzing taylor’s work through the lens of queer history, but, why stop at analyzing history? ☺️ why not make it?

Karlie 🥹❤️

I love Karlie so much. You guys know. In the trenches for her forever. Never in my wildest dreams did I think we’d get to this day like this. She deserves nothing but the best time tonight 🤍

if taylor could look like that for the man music video it really makes me wonder about the rooftop people in ME!

i think we already know some of them as her dancers but do we know everybody? we’re the dixie chicks ever confirmed as in the mix or was that just the consensus rumor?

I feel so silly for not noticing this before?? I haven’t seen anyone in tumblr bring up these parallels

Thanks for this link @thefvckingswanqueen . I never noticed the Baz Luhrman tag too! 😲

Wait, i think there was a really good post days ago about something like this! Of TS x The Great Gatsby! I just can't remember which blog (if anyone has a link? 😭)

Sidenote: I guess i love how apparent F. Scott Fitzgerald's (author of The Great Gatsby) influence is to Taylor, which we could see through her work! The parallels in some of the songs, and the Daisy theme ☺️

Songs:

Feeling so Gatsby for the whole year - TIWWCHNT

Don't blame me love made me crazy ... Lord save me my drug is my baby I've been using for the rest of my life .. Halo, hiding my obsession - Don't Blame Me

(Taylor's fav quote from This Side of Paradise by Fitzgerald)

I once was Poison Ivy, but now I'm your daisy - Don't Blame Me

There are 2 stories by Fitzgerald where the main love interest was named Daisy: Daisy Buchanan (The Great Gatsby) + Daisy Fuller (The Curious Case of Benjamin Button - Benjamin the cat's namesake too!)

I hope she'll be a beautiful fool, who takes my spot next to you - Happiness

All you want from me now is the green light of forgiveness - Happiness

The line from Daisy Buchanan "a fool, that's the best thing a girl can be in this world". The green light can be a reference to a traffic light, but also to the Green Light symbolism in The Great Gatsby ...

And if i'm not mistaken, Fitzgerald was also a veteran - WWI (The Great War) - as is Jay Gatsby!

The End of the Video

Something I haven’t seen mentioned yet is the implications of how after Taylor climbs into the lavender haze cloud at the end of the video, the cloud *poofs* and mid disappearance, the video cuts to black.

Is the public persona Taylor disappearing/being killed off?

Others have already pointed out that this Taylor is in the same outfit (lesbian flag knit top) as one of the Taylors in Anti-Hero, and appears to possibly represent the public persona Taylor (a theory that is reinforced by this Taylor performing pda for the cameras and the crowd in party scene of this mv).

After the party scene, when the house is empty, the same Taylor starts deconstructing the space, revealing it to be some kind of set. First she rips open the shades over the window, then she starts pushing the walls down.

As the walls fall, she sits in the center of a lavender cloud, with koi fish swimming through the surrounding cosmos.

Then she pulls the cloud over her head like a down comforter, and the cloud begins to dissipate, quickly, before the video cuts to black and ends.

With the cloud, this version of Taylor disappears as well. Which is already interesting. Then you consider that what she leaves behind is midnight blue sky full of koi fish (which supposedly represent being proudly out in Japan)….

It’s a bold interpretation, but it’s also a bold sequence, a bold video, after two other bold videos, and 20 very bold songs.

I believe pretty strongly that she will stay in the glass closet until she can tell her whole truth, and has a strong chance of making a considerable difference in the industry as a result, so I’m not saying I think this means she’s going to come out tomorrow, but i do think it means something. Maybe it’s just to send a message to those who haven’t gotten it yet? Maybe it means she’ll stay in the glass closet but drop the beard soon? Who knows, I just love how loud it is.
