Okay I love how the beginning of So Long London her vocals sound just like Big Ben chiming and I love how TTPD beginning sounds like the beginning of The Breakfast Club (my favorite movie) and AND she mentions covens and sorceresses and Stevie Nicks and golden retrievers and Taylor Swift which are all things I love
I’m so struck by how Taylor has retold the story of 2016 so many times and I’m so many ways because as time passes and things happen and things change it reframes and reframes and reframes in her mind because the pain never goes away, the way it looks just changes with the light
When I was writing the Fortnight music video, I wanted to show you the worlds I saw in my head that served as the backdrop for making this music. Pretty much everything in it is a metaphor or a reference to one corner of the album or another. For me, this video turned out to be the perfect visual representation of this record and the stories I tell in it. Post Malone blew me away on set as our tortured tragic hero and I’m so grateful to him for everything he put into this collaboration. I’m still laughing from getting to work with the coolest guys on earth, Ethan Hawke and Josh Charles (tortured poets, meet your colleagues from down the hall, the dead poets). I still can’t believe I get to work with the unfathomably brilliant Rodrigo Prieto on cinematography and my team of dream collaborators: Ethan Tobman (production design), Chancler Haynes (editor), Anthony Dimino (1st AD), Jil Hardin (producer) and Dom Thomas (executive producer). Parliament aced the VFX as always. Joseph Cassell, Lorrie Turk and Jemma Muradian made these tortured looks come to life. The entire crew made this a dream to shoot. Thank you to everyone involved and everyone who has watched it!!
“Tortured poets, meet your colleagues from down the hall, the dead poets” and then including actors from Dead Poets Society in the music video after we all struggled with the title of TTPD and Dead Poets Society is actually hilarious

I personally love the combination of pieces - especially the spring-like temperature combination of light sweater + short skirt. Plus that shade of pastel blue is v on trend atm. Though for a personal copy + paste, I’d opt for a burgundy or black sweater as a moody tone / dark neutrals kind of girl.
All in - it sure is just nice to see her isn’t it?
