twitter has completely stopped working for me. nothing works, not even lists. i’m actually so depressed rn
i guess we’re back to tumblr thanks to elon and his stupid decisions
something people don’t appreciate enough is the fact that different songs on midnights explore the same topics in numerous, sometimes contradictory ways. on snow on the beach, she’s scared that a new relationship might not work out; on labyrinth, she’s terrified that it might. snow on the beach also talks about the celestial forces that bring two people together; mastermind confesses that she was the force in question all along. bejeweled describes the confidence and freedom of bending the rules of a relationship; high infidelity is filled with guilt and terror for simply dancing with another guy. she takes the money on you’re on your own, kid, but she feels stifled by it on anti-hero. she ends you’re on your own, kid with inspiring words; on dear reader, she warns the audience not to listen to her advice. she burns in hell on anti-hero, but karma is her god on karma. she can face any struggle fame throws at her on you’re on your own, kid, but she’s too soft for all of it on sweet nothing. she’s a diamond and a monster on the hill at the same time. it’s almost like each story is told from multiple perspectives like the love triangle on folklore, but instead of several fictional characters, the narrators all exist in different corners of taylor’s mind.
one of my favorite lines in sweet nothing is “you’re in the kitchen humming” because it continues the motif throughout her entire discography about kitchens being such a sacred and pivotal space in her life and her relationships: ”barefoot in the kitchen sacred new beginnings” / “i’m here on the kitchen floor” / “dancing in the kitchen in the refrigerator light” and the whole kitchen fight scene in the atw short film. and then additionally it’s so loaded because food/cooking in general have brought her both happiness and self-care (which she just talked about in the ina garten tribute) as well as a lot of pain and self-destruction obviously. and then to have this place filled with so much complex pain and memories being a symbol of peaceful, steady love is so wonderful <3
TAYLOR SWIFT Midnights + lyric parallels
Midnights is a wild ride of an album and I couldn’t be happier that my co pilot on this adventure was Jack Antonoff. He’s my friend for life (presumptuous I know but I stand by it) and we’ve been making music together for nearly a decade HOWEVER… this is our first album we’ve done with just the two of us as main collaborators. We’d been toying with ideas and had written a few things we loved, but Midnights actually really coalesced and flowed out of us when our partners (both actors) did a film together in Panama. Jack and I found ourselves back in New York, alone, recording every night, staying up late and exploring old memories and midnights past. We were so lucky to also work with our brilliant collaborators Sam Dew, Sounwave, Lana Del Rey, Jahaan Sweet, Keanu Beats, William Bowery, and Zoe Kravitz. Laura Sisk was our excellent engineer. The wonderful and wise Beth Garrabrant took the album photographs. Midnights is a collage of intensity, highs and lows and ebbs and flows. Life can be dark, starry, cloudy, terrifying, electrifying, hot, cold, romantic or lonely. Just like Midnights. Which is out now
meet me at midnight 🌌

im freaking out right now
so I've decided to move fandoms and start fresh. can’t wait to make more friends on here. if you want to follow me on twitter, my username is the same: @daysevermore :)
I just want little kids to be like “There’s no one like me”! And I’m also really so excited about the video. My idea that I had in the beginning is like, it starts in an apartment, you (Brendon Urie) and me get in a big fight. And then all of a sudden, I have a parade happening below. And whatever makes you you. You know, it’s just like, emo kids, theater, dance sequences, La La Land, everything […]. If you were to split open my imagination, what would come out of it? Taylor Swift on ME!
3 YEARS OF ME!
“I wanted them (the fans) to see that I’m heading in a different direction musically than they’ve seen in the past few years. This song was to change expectations and be a bit of a palette cleanser before they hear more of this new project. Plus, the chorus just makes me happy and lifts my mood when I sing it. I never want to be presumptuous, but I hoped it might do the same for someone who’s having a shitty day.”

I have lived most my life surrounded by my enemies. I would be grateful to die among my friends.
