[cantcalmmdown]

Watching the Cardigan music video felt like a journey with Taylor.

Like she first discovered the magic and inspiration in her own room playing just for herself and then magic beckons. She steps into the magic created by the music in awe of the moment and escapes to a dreamscape, filled with beauty and wonder.

When the magic beckons again she follows it trustingly, only to step into the middle of a wild storm afloat and adrift amidst the waves. She finds her way back to the music and clings to it amidst the storm.

Finally the music takes her home; back to where it all started. Sitting at home creating magic, warm and welcome and safe.

We Stan a queen 👏 👏

taylor swift has a song for everything. got dumped? yep. fell in love? theres one for that. moved into a house with a lucrative history involving a rich woman that was blamed for her husbands death? theres one for that too

[cantcalmmdown]

taylor has quite literally NEVER done anything like this before and i think it just proves that she’s making music to make music, not for anyone’s approval, not for ratings, not for the recognition, she’s just like “here i’m proud of this, take it” AND I’M HERE FOR IT

I love how Taylor wrote a song about the story of her RI house.

[cantcalmmdown]

I've never been a natural, all I do is try, try, try

I'm still on that trapeze

I'm still trying everything to keep you looking at me

These lyrics omg. My heart. If I could put into words how I feel about my life it’s these words. This song is incredible #mirrorball

folklore feels like you just found an old collection of letters tied up with ribbon, in a box in someone’s attic and you wipe off the dust and sit down right there to carefully flip through them and you get a glimpse into the world of whoever wrote them

[cantcalmmdown]

I gave so many signs

[cantcalmmdown]

I really don’t see this as an era. This is a moment in time. Folklore is so far removed from everything she’s ever done in the best way. I don’t see there being singles, I don’t see her touring it. It was her writing because she loves to write. It’s her telling stories because she’s a storyteller, and she wanted to do it in a new, imaginative way. She shared these stories with us not for sales or charting or awards, but because, as she said, when you write, you can change your words into your legacy, and that’s really what folklore is. Stories passed down from generation to generation to form a legacy.
