#LWYMMD snippet

[everytaylorswiftsongisaboutcats]

Once again here I am… clowning…

Do I think Taylor will announce something at the AMA’s?

Why yes, I do.

Am I probably wrong?

Most definitely!

Have I seen this film before?

Of course!

Will I probably do this again?

Yesss!!!

Really the only question left is…

Are we ready for it? …

I always had this sense of dread around Reputation TV in a way that was hard to describe — especially having been on tumblr through that era, as well as the drought, it felt like such a special and precious time that made me feel a sort of protectiveness about the album. And it feels very special to me that she feels some version of that too, that she wants to preserve that memory as it is.

but seriously rep was always going to be the hardest to recreate especially in the absence of those very specific feelings. I can imagine taylor feeling increasingly stressed from the pressure to recreate it exactly no wonder she’s barely done any of it!!! the relief she must be feeling now on all fronts

Strange day on the dash for someone who's pretty neutral on Rep as a whole

I love how Taylor continuously drops snippets and singles of the tv versions for songs on a completely different album to the one she’s releasing next

[okaynotfineatall]

Do people who say Taylor is "forcing her voice to sound different in the re-records to differentiate from the original" realise that she doesn't sing every song the same way that it's sung on every album every time she sings? Regardless of whether she can't make the re-recorded songs identical to the original for legal reasons, 98% of the time she performs a song it isn't the same note for note as it is on the record.

rep tv is actually gonna kill me

[taylorklosscomeout138]

WHY IS NO ONE TALKING ABOUT THIS?!?!?

The way Karlie just casually confirmed the theory that the "Kingdom Keys" line in LWYMMD is a play on her initials (KK) was NOT on my 2025 bingo card

Especially not that she would do it through a snippet of her interview after we JUST got a snippet of LWYMMD last night that had the lyric "Kingdom Keys once belonged to me"

This part also starts exactly at 38s remaining and this is where the clip cuts off on Karlie's story.

This montage of the interview covers Karlie talking about her former fear of public perception for who she truly is... but that she now no longer cares and wishes to authentically be herself in the public eye, doing everything with intention

Sounds like a line up soft launch into comingoutlor to me if I ever heard one

You're telling me on the August 23, 2017 Taylor Alison Swift announced the first single off reputation and on August 23, 2023 Taylor Alison Swift gave us a snippet of LWYMMD (Taylor's Version)

[heda-heather]

it can't be a coincidence that the lwymmd snippet was in an episode that aired the same day as the podcast episode (where Karlie talks about her reputation and not caring about what people think of her) was released...right?

[corneliaavenue]

Am I taking crazy pills? Why is everyone on Twitter freaking out because of a snippet of LWYMMD was used in a TV show, when it was literally used 2 whole years ago in a TV show too??? Like this isn't new? We have had this? Why is no one saying that???

[iwatcheditbegin]

As someone who is into patterns I think it’s safe to say we won’t be getting rep tv for at least another year or two

The Elevator 🌔

I think I know what this message from 🌋 is referring to. Lizzy McAlpine just released the deluxe version of her album Older today and she titled it Older (and Wiser). I’m pretty sure Older is related to Gracie’s song Older on TIWIFL (see this post for more on the Gracie Lizzy connections). Lizzy’s Older and Gracie’s Older are both related to the Peter Pan metaphor. I think the deluxe album being titled Older (and Wiser) indicates that Peter is getting ready to grow up -> “I have this thing where I get older but just never wiser.” Taylor is no longer going to be an anti-hero, she is instead going to be a hero.

(x)

The first track on Older is The Elevator and the lyrics of this song match perfectly w Labyrinth (and Labyrinth is related to the Bejeweled mv bc Taylor takes an elevator from the 1st to the 13th floor):

“It wasn’t slow it happened fast” -> “You know how scared I am of elevators, Never trust it if it rises fast, It can’t last”

“And suddenly the only thing I (Peter) saw was you (Wendy)” -> “Uh-oh, I'm fallin' in love, Oh no, I'm fallin' in love again”

Also, the plane -> The Tortured Poets Depart 🛫🛬 -> “I thought the plane was going down, How'd you turn it right around?” -> LWYMMD mv where Taylor clips the wings of her TS6 plane (karma the lost album) -> Elton John’s Goodbye Yellow Brick Road (which is referenced in the Karma mv) using the same plane metaphor: “When are you gonna come down? When are you going to land?” This song is abt Elton choosing to walk away from fame which is also what the Bejeweled mv is abt (Castles Crumbling).

If you look at the Spotify canvas for The Elevator, a calendar is shown w several dates and this is where the math comes in. Some of the dates are 11/10, 10/28-10/30, 11/6, 11/7-11/10, 10/24, and Oct 28. 11/10 mirrored is 10/11 like @lyricstoojesus said, and 10/11 is the first quarter w 58% illumination which is mentioned in the 🌋 message. The waxing gibbous phase 🌔 starts on 10/12. The Elevator calendar has some very interesting things written on it. One of them is “Piano Taylor” which is on 10/11-10/12. This could be what that 🌋 message was trying to point us to. Perhaps this is a hint that we should pay attention to Taylor’s next piano surprise song. Plus 12 mirrored is 21 which is one of Gracie’s songs (see this post for more on the 12 and 21).

Another thing that caught my eye was “Richter.” This could be referring to the Richter scale which measures the magnitude of earthquakes. Gracie just recently played Fault Line as a surprise song on Oct 2. This song uses an earthquake as a metaphor for a relationship falling apart. “I know you're a fault line, but I'll break too, Crackin' at the same time, does it shock you?” Interestingly, Aaron Dessner described the song “us” as “an earthquake of a song.” So putting these easter eggs together, they could be saying that “us” (that is the tortured poets + us true fans, "you + me = us") is the earthquake in the song Fault Line; the relationship that's falling apart in Fault Line is the one between Peter/James (the tortured poets) and Wendy/Betty (us true fans). It could also be saying that this relationship will be the thing that burns the lover house to the ground and starts the revolution, the "volcano." The Elevator calendar may be foreshadowing when the first cracks from this earthquake will start forming, 10/10. Ginger anon mentioned the cracks in the facade that turn into a chasm.

The last thing I wanted to point out is “Codesmith” which is written under “Monday, Wednesday, Thursday” and next to “Oct 28” which is a Monday. The wk of Oct 28 is the same wk as Halloween which is on a Thursday. I have no doubt sth big will happen this wk since this was the whole purpose of the 🎃 messages.
