People say she’s being dramatic cause she wrote a 10min song about a short relationship but it’s not about how long or short a relationship is. It’s about what that person made you feel during those times. She fell hard fast and there’s nothing wrong with that. She was young. I can write a 10 page essay about a relationship I didn’t even have 🤣🤣🤣
Genius… totally agree
7 pages for a situationship i had too, 😄😂
besides, it takes a whole lot of skill and talent to make a 10 min song...they should appreciate the music
Exactly !!!!!
I actually think it’s easier to write a song about a short relationship because you can focus on those moments because those moments are so brief they have more meaning attached to them. It actually makes it easier to make those moments even more dramatic. Not that that’s a bad thing🤷🏼♂️
probably the reason why the 10 minute version isn’t boring to listen to and to watch the performance is that the song has a story to follow, it’s like taylor’s telling a story in a way that she’s just singing it out. not to mention the fact that the lyrics are damn painful and relatable.
It also doesn’t have a repeated chorus, it’s different each time and keeps you engaged. I was never a swift fan until I saw this and I’m blown away each time
@@sonicbl00m yeah agree w u
It's a refreshing song while we're in the midst of famous main pop songs that aren't... as meaningful. Most songs rn are famous because of its beat (I'm not saying that this is wrong but that's just making this stand out more. Not to mention, this is a literal lyrical masterpiece).
so true... and every song by Taylor is a story being told 😊 in a beautiful way that makes your mind paint a picture of it 😊
@@sonicbl00m welcome welcome i suggest you watch the live performance of dear john
"You told me 'bout your past thinking your future was me" So painfully relatable!!
I’m a 52 year old man and a swiftie. Her songs are so lyrical. She tells a story each time. And I appreciate that she writes her songs and plays instruments. She’s like Prince in that way, prolific too.
68 year old man… been listening since 2006… My Wife got concert tickets for me and and herself. I’m A Swiftie…
Sou uma mulher de 48 anos e amo o talento, a versatilidade, transparência e carisma com que Taylor coloca em suas músicas. Uma das maiores artistas do planeta! ❤
50 year old Van Halen, Megadeth...etc. love her. She is the VAN HALEN of the time now .
Also oldish dude - YES! Narrative songwriting is amazing.
@@paulieramosYou aren’t wrong there. Her ability to craft a piece of music that hits you straight in the heart and soul is almost unmatched. I describe her best songs as being steel hammers wrapped in silk. You know what’s coming and you brace yourself but her artistry, the silk, slips past your defences and then the hammer hits you in the heart and soul. And she does it every time
The fact that this song doesn’t feel like ten minutes is a sign of a great performance.
the greatest of all time .... taylor
I know right? Every time I listen to it, like one second later- it’s the end and I’m like: “What??? Over already??”
yesss
I was thinking the same thing
Exactly! Like she is so awesome!
This song is so captivating, it doesn't even feel like 10 minutes..
Yeah! I kinda wish it was longer haha
I feel like she’s venting to me 😌
@@Sadistic_Samurai I feel like it lasts 2 minutes
Thiss
Yeah I wish it was longer😂 I’m like tell is more
Taylor Swift has earned my respect. I went to Eras with my two teenage daughters. I wanted to support them, thinking I would need to silently endure the experience. Instead, I was blown away by her -- the enormity of her talent as a singer, performer, and show woman, but even more so her extraordinary talent as a songwriter and poet. Her lyrics are samples of modern poetry at its finest. She lays bear her soul for everyone to see (and hear!). The images she paints with words are ravishingly beautiful. I sat through almost 3 hours of songs and never once regretted my decision to 'support' my daughters by going to see the movie It was a wonderful experience
You sound like a great dad
Sane here. Went with my daughter to see her in Seattle. She is a very unique artist and I've never experienced something like the connection she has with her fans at the show. In one evening, I became a Swifty and have an incredible memory with my daughter ❤️
You sound like a great father
I’ve never really paid attention to her until she started talking to my home team TE. I’m 67, grew up in the Seventies and my favorite singer is Robert Plant. I got on KZhead and started watching her videos, and now I’m a fan! She seems like a really cool and nice young lady and we love when she comes to Kansas City. This song and “Antihero “ are the first two songs I’ve checked out and love both!!! ❤
@@pattymcdaniel5276 I was born in the mid-60s and grew up in the 1970s. I listened to all the rock bands of the era, including Alice Cooper, Queen, the Beatles, and Led Zeppelin. My favourite singer by far was Robert Plant, too. The guys vocals are outstanding. But I am impressed by Swift. I can't think of any modern artist, male or female, who composes and sings her own material, who's style changes from one album to the next, and who has remained popular for two decades. She really is one of a kind.
I LOVE HOW SHE IS ONE OF THE SINGERS WHO SING EXACTLY HOW THEY'RE FEELING WITH EXACT EMOTIONS
Fr swiftie forever ❤
do you not realize she copies and paste the same formula over and over? lol
@@testing7802 what formula?
It’s unhealthy how many times I listen to this daily
Here I am again
Hey y’all what’s new
Me too … its Like daily dose to listen to her ♥️🧣
and here we are again (on that little town street)
Same.
The stage production of autumn slowly turning to winter matches the lyrics exactly. She captures a full season’s turning in ten minutes
Uaoooo...you re very very nice ♥️♥️♥️
And the turn to the red lights for that last coda starting with the joke line…whew!!!
Do like india
With all of those efforts but still got few views when compared to Easy on Me live on NRJ. Let's not forget that her vocals sounded so awful in this performance.
@@ferdinandbundac9856 is this jake gyllenhaal on burner account lmfao
I'm a 67 year old man, I've been in a lot of relationships and this song had me crying for 8 minutes of it, been on both side of the story. I am amazed by her.
I totally agree; she's amazing. I recently started "really listening " to her songs. I haven't cried at one yet lol! but time will tell.
You sure you're a man? Jesus christ...67 crying to a t swizzle song?
@@TheMark60172why are you watching a Taylor “swizzle” performance if you don’t even like her, and looks like you scroll through the comments!! Ur a true Swizzle fan 😉
@@TheMark60172 What a sad life you must have that you think crying is not something for MEN too, I'm sorry that your parents didn't hug you, but it's not our fault, in the end you criticize and you're just another fan.
@daemurua3511 sad life you say, will that make you cry also? Hopefully not 8 min. Im not a Taylor Swift song, but dude please try to Shake it off. I mean, dont hold a grudge until August and leave yourself with a Blank Space. If you dont stop crying, its gonna be a cruel summer for you man! In closing, stop feeling sad, go out to a bar and make the whole room shimmer and be Nice!
This is easily one of the greatest songs of all time. The songwriting is unreal. This song makes you feel her emotion (which in turn become yours) whether you like it or not. She is unique that’s for sure. This song (especially 10 min version on the album) is an unabashed masterpiece. Wow.
Yes!! ❤
The first version I heard was the ten minute version, and I was stunned at some of the lyrics that didn't make the original edit. "You kept me like a secret but I kept you like an oath." I mean, damn!
@@lindyhues9459 I agree. Her lyrics are poetic, beautiful, and achingly emotional. The lyric “so casually cruel in the name of being honest” is a gut wrenching example of her phrasing. There is no one, right now,(or perhaps ever)who comes close to her songwriting skills.
Agree
When I listen to it I think of past relationships and remember which side of the equation was me. I could've been better in some, and got my heart crushed in my last one. My turn to eat the karma, i guess. This song is touching.
I’m still having trouble processing the fact that she’s giving a live performance of the full version of this song almost a decade after it was released. what a time to be a swiftie
@Jack W. Tf are you laughing at? The only joke here is you, Jack.
Usha I feel like they’re a bot or something lol
@Jack W. You're hilarious 🤣
@Jack W. then why are u here 😭
@Jack W. jake stop we know its you
"maybe this thing was a masterpiece" this song is, indeed, a masterpiece
To who ever is reading this comment You are awesome 🌟 My goal is to hit 30k any help would be epic🙌
Taylor is my inspiration!! My mom said that if I got 5k LIKES on my new song!! She definitely buy me a professional mic!! Begging you GUYS!! Please...I LOVE YOU! I'M NOT LYING! PLS!.
@Jack W. ????? lmao embarrassing
@Jack W. That’s an opinion not a fact.
@Jack W. Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh You need to calm down (you need to calm down) You're being too loud (you're being too loud) And I'm just like oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh You need to just stop (can you stop?) Like, can you just not step on our gowns? You need to calm down
‘So casually cruel, in the name of being honest.’ One of the greatest lines ever written!
And “I’m a crumbled up piece of paper, just lying here” That just crushed me 😢
It’s not just a song. She wrote & directed a short film based on the song. She owns it all. I find that very impressive! Love it!
Yes, they played the film behind her as she sang. But it’s also on KZhead. It’s so well done.
This song doesn’t feel 10 minutes at all. Taylor is truly a master of her craft.
I was thinking that! This is the fastest ten minutes ever!
I would say I enter the song not just listen to it😅 👏👏
I was thinking the same
The fact that this song is literally TEN MINUTES LONG and yet every time I'm like "oh is it over already??" like it never gets old.
SAME
I barely memorize 3 minutes song. 😂 Taylor is a genius plus, dont you need a break after a 3 mins song? How she continue for 10 mins. Even during the music solo, she still need to put her energy playing the guitar😂
it keeps me on my toes even after listening so many times 😫 also hey! I sang a cover of “All Too Well”, mind giving it a listen?
Progressive metal/rock artists: "Allow us to introduce ourselves."
Same! When I very first listened to this, I'll admit I wasn't as impressed. I guess I was expecting different lyrics. But, I watched the short film and ever since then, I can't stop listening to this version. It's almost like I can't listen to the 5 minute one, knowing how much added depth the 10 minute holds. There was so much left unsaid when it came out in 2012, and the 10 minute version somehow makes the song ten times more mature, and showcases more of what went on behind the scenes. I don't think I've ever heard a song so tangible. The tone of the song, and the way she sings it lets you actually FEEL the story and you can feel what she's feeling. And sadly, that tells me just how much worse the relationship was than we all thought before with the original version of the song.
The way that 10 years later her pain is still palpable when she sings this song 😢❤
I noticed this as well. It hurts to see her hurting.
Powerful.
Count me another fan. I've never paid 30 seconds of attention to her until the last couple of weeks but I've watched a bunch of interviews and YT videos, just started listening to some songs in the last few days. I'm stunned at her creativity, humor, authenticity, compassion, strength, courage, and the way she is turning her love of life into an incredibly powerful inspiration of a life for so many, including me, a 66 year old guy. Brings levels of hope I wouldn't have thought possible from someone I had always written off as a teeny-bopper bubble-gum pop star. I've never disliked her, just simply never knew who she really is. I'm deeply impressed with her now and wish her (and everyone she touches) many blessings onward.
My boyfriend too (he's 56)... I introduced him to Tay, the real stuff, and he now says, "how did I never know about her? She's a goddess!"
You need to watch the Eras Tour. It is well worth the money! You will become a fan all over again!
@@angieboreman2921 would love to!
welcome!!
Literally "all too well" is everywhere currently. Taylor is planet .
Taylor Swift is tra$h, my music is better
@@robinskull yeah right
and we're just living in it
@@robinskull actually its the reverse for both taylor and you.
It’s getting the recognition it deserves 😩✨
Her lyrics and storytelling is everything. The story of the naive girl who fell in love with an older man who cannot commit and take her seriously as she did is truly heartbreaking. I just cant.
I was once that naive girl the fact i could relate is devastating i wish no one to experience the same :,(
WARNING I am the unprettiest human YTer worldwide. Take the hint, dear kate
and sad that it continues to happen today
Borahae
That reminds me of her “i am the man” music video where there is a younger woman who is marrying an older guy and it seems like she is a gold digger bc of a GIANT diamond on her finger. I think it points to how when a younger guy dates an older woman he is never seen as a gold digger, but when it’s a younger woman dating an older man she’s is almost always seen as a gold digger
This song IS the Masterpiece. 63 yr old 'Swiftie' here. T's storytelling is unmatched in her generation. Love her❤ my favorite performance of this song.
Totally agree.
I've been a fan of Carly Simon since the 70s for her amazing storytelling in song. And now there is Taylor
I consider her songwriting up there with the likes of Paul McCartney and dare I say Bob Dylan.
What makes this song so iconic and relatable is the fact that almost all of us have experienced a scenario of being gaslit in a relationship and being told that “it” wasn’t real, wasn’t a big deal, didn’t mean much, etc. when you know it WAS something special, something different. It is such a unique and horrific pain to have those feelings invalidated by another and Taylor completely captures that emotion with her lyrics.
Her short film playing in the background makes this performance magical, her past is literally behind her as she remembers on it wow. You can hear how real it is for her
is it tho? she's getting people to hate on Jake Gyllenhaal for a 3 month relationship from 10 years ago
@@Mac-dt3iz I'm genuinely curious, did she say it's about Jake or are these just speculations?

The best lyricist in 21st century
Oh absolutely and one of the true all time greats..
I don’t know how anyone can say she isn’t talented? Do you hear this song writing? It’s gorgeous
"So casually cruel in the name of being honest" is one of the best lyrics from any song, from any genre, ever. And its just one tiny line that passes by in a 10 minute masterpiece.
I suspect we might all find our special tiny line...I know I did!
@@rebeccamilward4758 the thing is that it became part of pop culture at this point
Yes I totally agree and I also love “and you call me up again just to break me like a promise” another tiny line with great meaning
that was what got me since i heard this song for the first time
I’ve always thought that that was the line that really solidified her ability as a lyricist. But I’ve also always thought this was her best song and the extra length only adds to that
Taylor is truly an excellent songwriter. I've never had a boyfriend but when I listen to the song, I feel like I lived it myself. She reflects her emotions and feelings very well in her songs.
Taylor Swift is tra$h, my music is better
@@robinskull you’re never gonna get anywhere with tearing other people down :)
@@robinskull that's why she has 44.4 million subs : ) FOOL!!
Same
I think Taylor Swift may have a possible future as a budding filmaker too or film writer I'm not a Taylor Swift fan but the way she created the story, and how the highs and lows of the relationship were shown felt very realistic and of course can't forget credit to the actors themselves Sadie and Dylan had great chemistry together. I was definitely feeling very emotional and melancholy after it. Well done to Taylor
This song hits straight to my heart because the exact same thing happened to me. We fell in love and we were 9.5 years apart, 22 and 31. We were together for 3 months non stop and something (he said it was age as well) happened where he started to pull away. He finally did the no call/no show thing and we broke up. Then for two years he was in and out of my life until I finally said I couldn’t take it anymore. He is the love of my life but it didn’t work out. Every person he has ever been with since then has characteristics that are like me, almost like he is trying to recreate what we had. It has truly changed who I am as a person over the last 15 years and I wish I could go back every single day to who I was before I met him because the heartache is enormous. I think there are some things in life that you never get over and they hurt just as much at 100 years old as they did at 22 years old. ❤
🥺❤
I felt this. Same thing. I was 22. He was 31 and I was just so in shock that HE would want me that I was so submissive and would let him blame me for stuff that just didn’t make sense but he must’ve been right. We did the back and forth thing for 5 years. I forgave a lot of shit from him cause I just wanted him while he threw things in my face every chance he got. Tried to get me to turn on friendships he said weren’t real (still friends at 33) and just would shatter my soul. One thing about aging is that I realize I needed those lessons to know I will never make myself dim or small for anyone or not stick up for myself and speak up and not accept the gaslighting.
A masterpiece. The only reason I don’t want a 20 minute version is because I’d never want Taylor Swift to go through that. An outstanding performance and from the heart 💯
Ha yeah. It's an emotional rollercoaster coaster. Imagine how difficult it is to rip the scab off and bleed out for 10 minutes strait.
10 mins and at the end you still want more.She is a musical genius.
Ikr
She is genius.. gifted ,talented.
Fr
on constant repeat
And still crying, she is so real and honest.
I love that her back-up singers are the same women we've seen by her side for years. It's a testament to her character that they're still by her side, smiling, and full of joy performing for and with her.
Exactly. She still with her band until now which is awesome. She is really a keeper. The love she has for the people around her is really genuine.
She truly does keep people around. Just like the dancer in the lover video She is a beautiful person
She’s a keeper.. ☺️
It also shows how she treat them, cause I mean if she wasn't caring and such they will talk against her, but no. They did not and can not, it is because she was and is still grateful to all of them and I love that about her.
I believe these are the vocalists she's had since Red first came out. In fact, her band has been pretty much the same since Fearless, and the few that have left she's still in touch with. Her old vocalist Liz Huett even makes a few appearances on Red TV.
I’m so thankful for this woman. She has wrote so many songs that help me understand how I feel during certain situations, especially this one. I went through a short relationship as well when I was in my junior year and I fell really fast and it ended with not a lot of clarity. This song is on repeat and is my comfort song. Taylor Swift is truly amazing
@gracie willard Red made me a Swiftie ha ha I literally spent my entire workday going to get Red TV
With me it's even stronger. I doubt I would be alive if it wasn't for her music. It's a long story but it's my truth...
Right! She’s really out here validating those short bUt intense situationships
Exactly how I feel 👍
Denial. Anger. Bargining. Depression. Acceptance. All in one song without ever outright saying it.
Did u just predict ttpd
This 10 minute version has been wanted for so long and she’s giving all of her. It’s such a masterpiece, just like we thought it would be. RED IS A MASTERPIECE.
@Jack W. You commented this ….3 times..?
@Jack W. tat's y u hv to come on KZhead to be heard unlike Taylor. Keep Crying
igaisu he’s spam commenting this on every comment, I think it might be a bot or something
@Jack W. YOU MEAN EVERYTHING YOU SAY IS BS.
@Jack W. ok…?
People love to hate on her but you can’t deny her staying power. She’s 15 years into her career and still breaking records left and right. Every album she puts out, even ones from a decade ago, go number 1 and a 10 minute song originally from a decade ago went number 1. She’s just as relevant now after 15 years as other new artists in their prime.
Well I mean she is still quite young... So by normal Hollywood standards she is still in her prime and would remain so for quite a few years, especially if she keeps putting out masterpieces like this one
I don't get the Hate on her, it doesn't make sense. They're jealous of this gorgeous multi-talented hard-working artist.
THIS!!!!🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
Adele and Ed Sheeran has released new music, yet Taylor Swift is No1.
That’s why we love TayTay 💜 Swiftie for life ✌🏼
Even with the imperfections that would have been edited out in a studio version, this is the best to watch. The break added in the middle is perfect, as is the a cappella ending. Her acknowledging the background singers is another mark of Taylor's charm. Taylor always knows where the camera is.
This performance is huge. The lighting how it goes back and forth from reddish tones to bluish tones is symbolic. Same as the video. You’ll see the tones change. When the love is magical and intense it’s red…. when it’s painful and falling apart it’s blue. It’s interesting seeing the different tones pass over her face. No doubt she directed this performance.
She's a damn extremely talented genius ❤
"I'm a soldier who's returning half her weight" - such a beautiful way to describe the toll a relationship like this takes on you - from eating disorders to loosing your other half..
Yes the two were one and now not so much.
So she had eating disorders after that? 🥺
@@a.a.2573 Yes she did watch her Netflix film. She talks about it.
@@a.a.2573 yeah... its heartbreaking
When I first processed that line I went “OH SHIT!” because it reminded me of her ED…
“The idea you had of me, who was she?” Just hits me. It reminds me of my toxic ex and how I pretended to be someone I wasn’t just to please him. I’d love to know who he thought I was or who he thought he could mold me into.
So sorry you had to go through it all
Sameee, I relate to that specific line so damn much. I'm sorry you have to go through it.
Same..Especially when she says “so casually cruel in the name of being honest”
Yes I love rhetorical questions
U should always behave like urself u r u no one else u r special in some way never change for someone who is a controlling freak
This is one of the most powerful songs in the history of music. I was never a fan of hers until Midnights truly gripped me.
Wow, yes--"gripped" is the way to say what happens. And when it happens, you are then a Swiftie...:)
Have you listened to her Evermore album? It's hard hitting
@angieh1858 well my tastes have evolved. Folklore and onward are now masterpieces to me
@@ryanlee122787 Try "Speak Now." People drawn to her newer sound often enjoy that as well. She was young and so are the topics, but you'll see the great songwriter shining through, especially since she solo wrote everything on it.
That SNL performance was the first time I ever heard "All Too Well," and about a quarter of the way through the song, I started to realize it wasn't a regular song. I watched the video behind her, and noticed the lighting change, the seasons passing. Five minutes . . . six . . . seven . . . eight. It was a remarkable introduction to a piece I've heard a hundred times since.
❤❤❤
Taylor's relationship with her people reflects so much as I noticed that the back up singers are the same people that sang with her back then.
Amos her bass player has been with her since 2007 too!
@Jack W. Literally nobody cares about your channel 😂
@Jack W. get out, get out now.
@Jack W. Won't even bother checking your channel with that kind of baiting. Try being nice, it may get you more views than this tactic. Best of luck!
@Jack W. i would check out your channel but i am not bored enough. Maybe when i am as big of a sad sack as you then i will check it out.
*Lord, please grant me Taylor Swift’s level of productivity.*
5 albums, 1 pandemic....
It’s how we know she truly loves what she’s doing
AMEN
when you don't love what you're doing, you can't have it xD if ykyk
@@karissaly9616 can you please tell me all the albums she released 😭😭😭 I can only count 4.
The whole song is beautifully written, but I wrote somewhere that the repetition “I remember it all too well”/“you remember it all too well”/ “I was there” is her trying to reinforce her memories through all the gas lighting that he inforced. I can’t get over that…
Exactly. In these types of relationships there's gaslighting, but also just -- in retrospect -- the realization that THEY weren't really there. They live such a fake, manipulative, exploitative lie of a life that you don't really know who they are, what they are, if they were ever as present in those moments as you were. BUT, you can say you were there--really loving, really experiencing, genuinely giving a shit: YOU were there. You have to honor and respect that about yourself and lovingly mourn what you spent and lost on someone who didn't deserve it. You don't have to undervalue it and dismiss it and act like it didn't happen like the other person. This is a song about honoring your own real emotional, physical and psychological experience, independent of how much anyone else wanted to acknowledge it.
Her artistry - I understand that her music might not be everyone's taste, but everyone should be able to acknowledge she's an artist on a stellar scale. This whole thing is gorgeous.
No words. It's really difficult to keep a listener's attention for ten minutes with the same song and have them want to revisit it, too. Taylor was meant to do exactly what she's doing now.
Laughs in Prog

Taylor Swift doing a Dream Theater song we love to see it
lol i dont even like taylor swift i think this is the best 10 min song ever
This feels so much more like an angry song now, rather than just a sad one--amazing!
I was thinking the same thing!💕
I love both versions, but they really are completely different stories.
The edited one reminds me a LITTLE of billies happier than ever, ur sad but ur trying to cover the anger, and this one is just the raging other half

@@stardolphin783 Im thinking the same thing. Also they're the type of song that can be really repeated a number of times cos they have so much in them, and the switch of tone.
"you kept me like a secret, but i kept you like an oath" this makes me wanna cry T-T
REAL
What an artistic triumph! I can guarantee that I'm older than any of the stated ages here and I only discovered this lyrical genius recently. First time hearing this song. I haven't been so moved by a songwriter since listening to her namesake, James Taylor over fifty years ago. A once-in-a-generation talent. Amazing.
Same same
72 year old here loves the song and attended Eras, Sydney. Totally mesmerising performance from an amazing talent and apparently she paints as well. Her g’mothee was an opera singer
This song is a love letter to every person who feels like that they feel too much, think too hard, and remember the details that most seldom do. Those are the people with the softest hearts, the greatest minds, the most giving of hands. Taylor Swift captured that simple truth in this song, and I cannot possibly thank her enough for it.
🧡
😭
this comment needs more likes
I needed this. Thank you 😭
I just spent the night with my ex and we talked. It was freeing. Cause I am one of those people who feels everything. I pick up on small details. They simply weren't weren't realizing how much the little things, that they didn't care about were the ones that actually mattered the most.
Can we also appreciate her backup vocals? They added volumes to the song. They're equally awesome.
They’ve been together with Taylor like 9-10 years ago. Some of Taylor’s band members are still with her since the first time she started her music career. Taylor must loves them so much and so they are 🤧
Yes, those women are amazing! They've been her singers and toured with her for years.
@@shelly7185 and we as fans love them, too ❤️
they have been by her side for ages and rightfully so
Shut up Steve
This is the song that made me a swiftie.
"...just to break me like a promise, so casually cruel in the name of being honest" I'm not even a fan but I like four of her songs: this one, long live, timeless and love story. These lyrics and her performance is just perfect, I have no words
Listen to more. Great songs
Listen to Exile with Bon River. You’ll love it! I don't know you but I can still promise you that.
i recommend u listening to folklore and evermore albums. the lyrics of every song there are so poetically magnificent.
The eye contact with the camera like she's speaking to him after all these years. I love the power this woman holds. Love you Taylor!
Her face when she said “you never called it what it was” ahhh
Who is that “him”?
@@estefaniaaguilera873 jake gyllenhaal
yess i was gonna say that!!
🇧🇷🇰🇷
Her smile, the glow-up that matters the most.
so common this guy
@@MrUssy101 you must be a very lonely person and horrible person if you think the way that he treated her was in any way correct. I feel truly bad for you. Please get help
@@MrUssy101 do us a favour & stop copying and pasting your own comment
@@MrUssy101 keep crying
@@MrUssy101 the door is open for you to walk out, why listen when you just wanna comment such bad things Abt her, dude it ain't worth it I'm telling you.
You kept me like a secret but I kept you like an oath. Such a powerful line and one so many people can relate to
I can't believe it, but I now am a 68 years old man. I have been on both the giving and receiving side of this story. And I too remember all too well. What a performance and what a song.
The fact that she made a 10 minute song that you don’t get bored of listening to halfway through just shows how incredibly talented she is. She’s just pure musical genius and has been since day one. So proud of her🥲
I'm surprised a pop star could even do that considering that most songs over 10 min. are progressive metal/rock songs that are never boring.
This isn't the only 10 minute song in the world, jfc
I won’t complain if she makes longer songs like these ❤️ also hi! I sang “All Too Well”, would you mind taking a listen?
This is the ONLY ten minute song I've ever been willing and excited to listen to. I can't even listen to Stariway to Heaven all the way through (no offense, Led Zeppelin)
I only made it to a minute
I usually don't say that everything happens for a reason, but in this case I believe it did. Because if it wasn't for her dispute with her previous label, this version most likely would have never seen the light of day, the songs from the vault wouldn't have been released either, not to mention All Too Well perhaps wouldn't have got a short film. But instead all of her albums are getting even more appreciation and recognition than they did (meaning more people discover her music). It really worked out so well for her.
exactly! queen of making the best out of a bad situation. and not just for herself, but for all her loyal and supportive fans !!
omg yes!!!
and still being better than the stolen version,and still at the top
Red as album and all too well got attention that it deserved to get at the first place. Cause now it's no longer just fan favourite song or album but literally every one is liking it.. thanks to folklore and evermore which opened eyes of many that Taylor was and is best songwriter but jealous media and people elbowed her down!
Indeed!
Utterly stunning. Best song of the last 10 years. Would love to hear Bruce cover this.
Ooooo! THAT would be sweet!
I'm an older guy who generally does not like pop music... but Taylor is a genius.
the fact that she used to cry with this song and now she looks so happy and proud of herself, I love u blondie
Cuándo lloró
🇰🇷🇧🇷
The power Taylor holds is incredible. NBC literally allowed her to be on air for 10 minutes straight. Iconic, if I may add.
only the music industry herself could accomplish such a feat
true
tay is a legend
Incluso si ella exigiera estar allí durante 20 minutos, le darían permiso ... ella es sin duda una leyenda.
How frequent are commercial breaks at NBC? I’m not from the US.
She gave us such a masterpiece and people go and say she’s being over dramatic? Well YEAH, LET HER BE OVERDRAMATIC PLEASE if that means she can deliver such heartfelt songs with outstanding storytelling!! ❤
She was 20/21 when all this happened. I can't imagine trying to process a relationship with a man 9/10 years older than me. At 20 a year is ten years in life terms for you.
I'm 69 years old and have yet to make it thru this song without crying. It just keeps bringing back memories of a guy I dated when I was 23. She is the most amazing storyteller.
Beautiful
I’m 62 very new to Taylor and yes, it takes us back to youth so achingly…but applies to any age, it’s a timeless beauty
I could cry reading this 🥹
We have all been there. 62 now, and still remember feeling all of this with my first love.
Me too! 69! I miss those days!
she's literally one of the BEST songwriters of this generation. the lyrics she writes all tell a story, and the way she weaves them into a story just amazes me. basically like works of literature
Taylor co-wrote 1 step forward, 3 steps back
Taylor didn’t write any lyrics for that song though. Taylor received credit because Olivia interpolated the piano from Taylor’s “New Year’s Day” song.
she helped with 1 step forward 3 steps back! it was an interpolation of her own song
Forget Olivia I need her and Lana to cook something up, the two best song writers of this era
best song writer you mean
Omg, the beautiful, voice and talent of this woman is so unbelievable it's like she doesn't exist.
Why Taylor the attention seeker songs are always about relationship problems?? Redhead 🧑🦰 in this mv was portrayed as typical drama queen Taylor making a scene out of nothing, blaming the poor guy ??? WHY ??????
@@MrUssy101 cuz sir art comes from heart and relationships have to do a lot with heart.
@@MrUssy101 have you noticed that every songwriters have written about their past relationships or is your brain too small to function to even realize that?
1000th like
It was really nice to watch the video. This cheers up 🔥
Taylor is a revolution. Someone who breaks current conventions, the norm, expectations, everything. She’s the Mozart of our generation. We are a lucky bunch.
Only a musician like taylor can perform a 10 minute song
This song makes everyone cry from a relationship that we even didn't have
Til you do, and you know what she’s talking about. It hurts even more to hear it, really.
exactly, im too young for this to happen to me but it still makes me cry every time
absolutely!
I have one, and I'm suffering and loving a lot, he is bi-closeted, with a girlfriend. And I feel so so bad because of that. But this feeling is like...is something I believed couldn't be feel.
I knooow 😭
SNL really went all out with this performance. They gave her a 10 minute time slot when most people get 2 3 minute time slots, they put leaves on the ground for the autumn aesthetic, they gave her a screen to show her short film, and they made it snow.
she is very famous and they know it
exactly!! this will definitely go down as one of the best SNL performances of all time
Well.. she is a big draw. Audiences matter on tv.
Well, she’s Taylor Swift.
As she deserves it
I’m gonna say this is possibly her best performance ever! Just ever!
I’m 37 years old. I’ve never been in love… but listening to Taylor’s story telling reassures me that I’m capable
She was right. She rewriting these songs and fans like us are reliving those precious memories that we experienced when all too well first dropped
with different light, we grow up with her. this re-recording idea is genius
It's the best thing she could have done tbh
Reminds me of my 21st, where I wished my ex would remember my birthday
she sang for a straight 10 minutes
and she does it for 2 hours straight during tour... this is nothing to her... (the power she has omg)
@@KevinMAbraham there’s usually breaks during concerts , in this song there isn’t , so it’t just shows how much power she has in her vocals
She performed for 10 minutes as well
@BIBLE DEFENDER 144 Oh hush.
@BIBLE DEFENDER 144 hopefully x
I remember watching a shy little teenage girl back 16 years or so ago and I knew if she kept on singing she could really go places but never in a million years did I think this little teenage girl would grow up and become the single biggest powerhouse in all of music. Taylor is with out a doubt a once in a life time performer and we need to watch over her and keep her safe and most of all tag along for this beautiful journey as I don't think we will ever see such a bright, glowing star like this again in our life times!!! Thank you Taylor!!!
well said❤❤
This girl is so talented, I'm so lucky to have her for my generation, she makes the memories bittersweet
Her lyrics are so timeless and sad. I think anyone can relate to her in different ways. I’m 29 yo and happily married now, but this song reminds me of the way I felt at 17 when the boy I liked broke my heart,
I'm literally in the same situation. Happily married. But at 17 when your heart is broken for the first time, it's a pain you think you won't get over. You feel everything so deeply. She grasped that feeling in this song. I can go back to that time if I just close my eyes and listen.
Agree
40 and married here and feel the same. Great song writing can transport me back to that angst teen / early adult that is still within me.
Omg yes. This comment. This brings me back to those toxic relationships when I was 17/18/19 so naive back then. Happily engaged now 🥰
Yes..
I don't know if re-recorded albums are eligible for grammys but this song definitely deserves one. So compelling, you can actually feel the pain from all those years ago. Way to go Taylor
They are eligible. But she doesn't want to submit the rerecordings, like Fearless TV, as the main point of this was ownership.
@@karlpatrickmartirez2111 we don't know about Red TV. She only spoke about Fearless TV
@@karlpatrickmartirez2111 she already won a Grammy for fearless. But she might submit Red seeing it was nominated back then but didn't win
I hope she submits Red this time. And we'll prove it deserved a grammy.
they are if Taylor submits them for the Academy's consideration.
Taylor is a total package! Talent! Beauty! A poet!
All too well tells us how incredibly talented taylor is . The 10 minute is the thing we needed the universe needed.Thank you Goddess Taylor
the fact that other celebs attended on this performance is the next level of excitement (JoeJonas,SophieTurner,CaraDelevigne,AnyaTaylorJoy,SelenaGomez,RyanReynolds,BlakeLively)
What?! How you know that??
wait really??
Yea saw so many of them coming in on Twitter. Also joe Biden was there lol it’s actually true maybe !!!
Sadie sink was there as well
It was all her friends!!
The fact that she's smiling while singing this makes my heart move. Edit: If I can be Joe even just for a day, I would tell her how she means the world to me and give her a forehead kiss. ❤️
People say humans can't be perfect But she's the only living proof to prove that line wrong 🥺😙👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Idk what to say but Taylor Swift bringing back the PERFECT All Too Well to life makes me crying like heaven😭😭❤
Taylor is my inspiration!! My mom said that if I got 5k LIKES on my new song!! She definitely buy me a professional mic!! Begging you GUYS!! Please...I LOVE YOU! I'M NOT LYING! PLS!.
She has a few million reasons to smile everytime she sings it 😬
This lady is absolutely up there in the pantheon of the truly great songwriters of all time. Right now, at this point in time I don’t think there is anyone better…..
I hope Taylor reads this cause this is one of many of my favorite videos and songs of yours. I’m a 41 year old woman never been married and I now don’t have the option of having children. I have dated a lot through my 20’s and 30’s, if I could write songs or stories about my past loves like you do I would. You’re music is so relatable and so important so stay strong and keep pushing forward when times are tough. Real women deserve real love!! Never settle for less then what you deserve!! I’ve always said if I have to wait till I’m old and grey to find true love I will wait. Your songs give me strength in what I have gone through in my dating life and I refuse to settle till I find someone worthy.
Honestly, I still need the 10 minutes version of Back to December
And Dear John!!
I need a 10 minute version of every taylor song!!!
How am I just finding out there's more 10 minute versions😭
I need enchanted one-hour version
Getaway Car 10 mins version pls :D
Taylor obviously is an incredible songwriter but can we talk about how she sang her heart out for 10 minutes straight?!
And it STILL left me wanting more!
have you ever seen a live show of hers? she can sing her heart out for much longer than that her lungs are made of gold
I was shocked! I was like "Why is this song still going on" and then I checked @7:03 and she was still singing! She sang beautifully!
As someone who sings live often I can say that I'd really like to have her lungs. But really, it's very easy for your voice to get tired, you have to know exactly how much air to put in and in which moment, to sing your heart out just enough that it's amazing but not enough to break your vocal chords. That's what years and years of training and hard work gets you. I love you, Taylor.
HI! i posted an acoustic cover of this version on my channel!!! it was a hard song to sing so it would mean A LOT if you check it out!!!1 🍂🍂🍂
First time hearing this song. WOW. Her lyrics. Amazing. I see you now Taylor Swift. Thank you .
You're one of us now! LOL
There is not enough words to describe the feelings Taylor Swift evokes with her uncanny ability to tell a story...I can't stop listening to this song in particular, but all her songs are genius. I wish so much I could have the chance to see this amazing woman's Eras concert and meet her.
the fact that she was able to sneak in words like “self effacing” and “refrigerator” is completely mind blowing
Say it louder for the haters who say she only gets credited as a great songwriter for using big words. Refrigerator is such a mundane word.
@@wgrodrig5651 the audacity of those people. dont they think she helped them in terms of vocabulary.
The words like "maim" and "glistened" are new to me.. Her vocabulary is superb. How does she do that?
@@crystalmaureensantillan6406 You should listen to the albums folklore and evermore. She does it even more in those albums.
Also "twin sized bed"
it's just gratifying to see Taylor's evolution emotionally singing this song, what was once sad has now become a fan-bonding song.
This is the song that made me a late blooming Swiftie. This lady deserves all the best.
I love when a musician narrates the story of my life. For Taylor, she narrates the story of everyone's life. Taylor Swift should be a national treasure.
"So casually cruel in the name of being honest" Is still such a slick line.
Taylor Swift is tra$h, my music is better
my fav too :((((
Yes
Casually cruel Mr everything involves around you
@@robinskull what-
The “sacred prayer, I was there, I was there…” part at the end is absolutely HEAVENLY. Gives me chills every time!! ❤️
My 3x to cheers me up! Thanks Taylor
I like 7:13 part. 🌬
I cry every time watching the last part. It’s so raw. And emotional.
.i agree so much
Yes ❤
probably the best song ever of all time
She's a real legend, writing a 10mins song , acting, performing, vocal, remembering the 10mins song without missing a lyrics SHE'S A QUEEN 👑💖 SHE DESERVES THE WHOLE WORLD 🌍
