the chokehold no.1 tracks have on me continues

[tisthedamnseason-writethisdown]

to clarify this means which one fits the vibes of the album best/gives you the best preview of what it’s going to be like, not which song is actually the best

Fearless before

Fearless after.

I was cleaning up her retainer inventory and found the two free fantasias. My cohost on A Podcast Reborn recently temporarily fantasia’d his own main, so I decided to come up with something to use mine for.

I decided I’d play through the 6.1-6.3 MSQ as another race, and let a few folks from our Discord decide exactly what.

They picked Elezen. I had the character model data for Veilette saved, so I used that. She looks lovely.

Eras Tour Imagery - Fearless/evermore transition

The gold glitter of the Fearless set transforms into water droplets.

The water droplets give way to a scene of ice melting on leaf-covered ground. The leafs we see are red and orange in color.

We see more images of ice melting. Here, it's icicles on a ledge or a roof.

A forest is revealed, and it appears to be sunrise. Trees start to emerge from the stage.

The forest scene is set with the stage beginning to be enveloped by fog and an orange glow.

Interpretation:

This is possibly my favorite transition on the tour. Not only because evermore is my favorite album, but because I think the transition is very revealing.

The transition begins with the motif of ice melting on ground, which brings to mind early springtime. To me this feels wrong when you first remember evermore was released in December. So shouldn't the snow be falling? I think the melting, the thawing could have more to do with what evermore represents. A thawing out of certain feelings, or the idea of transitioning to something new. Evermore has both of those themes. Returning to an old lover, and becoming ready to step to the next phase of your life. Taylor has also used the theme of being frozen and frozen ground multiple times in her songs.

"My, my love had been frozen" (Dancing With Our Hands Tied)

"This has frozen my ground" (hoax)

"A red rose grew up out of ice frozen ground" (the lakes)

"He's got my past frozen been glass" (it's time to go)

"Did you ever hear about the girl who got frozen?" (right where you left me)

"Soldier down on that icy ground" (The Great War)

Is the real Taylor slowly unfreezing? Is her muse, her love thawing out with her?

The denotation of springtime also sets us up to go on a journey through time during the evermore set. As we will see in the next songs, the scene continually changes until we have reached winter.

The red leafs on the ground also spark thought of Red the album. Very autumnal vibes. At first glance it makes sense that autumn leafs are being revealed under the snow in spring. But another connection to the Red album, which Taylor keeps pointing us back to (e.g. the Wildest Dreams glitch video). Is the Red muse becoming unfrozen? Autumn leaves were also seen under the willow tree in the Willow music video and all over the Spotify Global Top Artist image.

In the forest, we see that it's sunrise. The dawn of a new day. We saw the addition of daylight in the new Lover house, and we see it here too. "But the monsters turned out to be just trees/When the sun came up, you were looking at me."

The trees the come out the stage are interesting. They look most similar to Mediterranean cypress trees because of the smaller diameter and the height of the trees. There are some on the screen in the very foreground as well. Mediterranean cypress have symbolism for mourning, cemeteries, and the underworld. They are also linked to Roman goddess Diana. "I'd meet you where the spirit meets the bones/In a faith-forgotten land."
