“I never saw you coming, and I’ll never be the same.”

5 years ago today, Taylor gave me the biggest hug and told me I had “one of the most beautiful smiles.” I am beyond proud of you and love you endlessly, Taylor. ❤️

i fear i wont articulate this correctly but at the end of the video as they are running away from the building filled with speak now memorabilia being destroyed so she can escape, taylor stops and looks back. and that little moment is so complex and heartbreaking to me because its like. she was trapped in there counting the days on the wall for when she'd be free. but its so clear on her face when she turns back that she didn't want to have to destroy all of the things she'd done just to break free from being locked away, to own her work again. she took her speak now versions painting (her rerecording) and ran. but she still looks back on this building filled with the other pieces she couldn't bring with and stops for a second as if in disbelief, awe, heartache even that this what it came to in order to survive. it shows on her face so clearly. and the rest of the crew yells for her that they have to leave (that its time to go if you will) and she bolts. but ! that pause and all it entails! it hurts. the rerecordings are a great thing in the sense that she gets to own her work but its so painful it happened This way

#THIS #it’s so heartbreaking

i cannot handle this omg we literally got speak now taylor’s version, cardigans, and a new music video and all of a sudden there’s taylor lautner back flipping on stage 😭😭😭

#this has been so crazy i can’t believe everything that’s happened

[folkloriangrace]

this is all so meta and sentimental to me because i’m the same age as taylor was when she released this album and i’m feeling the exact same apprehensions about growing up and falling in love like she did back then

#it’s also the 13th year of me being a swiftie #i literally could not have listened to this album at a better time in my life :’)

[folkloriangrace]

This album really has me saying “there’s a lot to unpack here” like I’m some kind of English teacher

#BRINGING THIS BACK CAUSE THESE VAULT TRACKS

[folkloriangrace]

i may have cried

a few times

#ok it was a lot but this album is everything and the fact that i’m the same age as taylor when it released and i’m feeling the same things

[folkloriangrace]

It’s here. It’s yours, it’s mine, it’s ours. It’s an album I wrote alone about the whims, fantasies, heartaches, dramas and tragedies I lived out as a young woman between 18 and 20. I remember making tracklist after tracklist, obsessing over the right way to tell the story. I had to be ruthless with my choices, and I left behind some songs I am still unfailingly proud of now. Therefore, you have 6 From The Vault tracks! I recorded this album when I was 32 (and still growing up, now) and the memories it brought back filled me with nostalgia and appreciation. For life, for you, for the fact that I get to reclaim my work. Thank you a million times, for the memories that break our fall. 💥🐉🏰  Speak Now (MY VERSION!) is out now.
