whose afraid of lil ol me is my favorite.. its how i feel inside when i get really angry and dont express it
Mine too I think! I remember daydreaming in primary school about having supernatural powers and being a witch that could curse all my bullies… it really reminded me of that and I love it. Even though I feel like its related to Taylor’s unrelatable experiences but still!
I just love Down bad and Daddy I love him!
Her lyrics always resonate
The fact that im moving to florida the end of the summer to start over new. To escape the toxicity that is my family here where I live. To hopefully escape my extreme depression and suicidal ideation, etc. Her explaination about "Florida" is giving me life tbh. Because it feels like the universe is speaking to me through her saying "hang in there a little longer, dont do anything stupid. Just wait until you get to florida so you can start your new life, its going to get better." I feel like not many will feel such a strong to connection to that song... but for me, it came at just the right time. Such a simple almost meaningless song saved my life. ❤
well, not to get political, but liberals are more depressed, is that part of your problem? moving to the sun filled land is a good idea, because VitD is key (not that during Covid they told us this!). avoid junk food, exercise, get some sun, work hard, focus, things will turn around!
You can do it move to Florida and thrive!!! God bless 🎉
I wish you nothing but the best and a new beginning in Florida!!!
You have to remember there is almost nothing that can go wrong, a bad choice that you make, or a bad situation you are in that you can’t “fix.” It may take a while, it may be a lot of work, it may be super hard- however you CAN and WILL do it. When you make it through this, make it your responsibility to help someone else.
The world is open to you! Be free. Roam. Love your life!
I appreciate how strong Taylor Swift is in putting the industry in the spot light on their double standards ❤
Florida!🎉. Brilliant. She is the consummate, modern storyteller, lyricist poetic artist. Has earned every accolade. Mastermind Creative! ❤
Did not even have to explain “thanKs aIMee” 😂
I'm so proud of Taylor Swift
If she hurts Travis I will never forgive her never
❤ Love to hear her explain her process and offer us the “inside scoop“ to her brilliant creativity. “Little ol’ me.” Clever & powerful. You go girl.🎉
Taylor swift is speaking her truth in her song
🎉 Love her message w/Clara Bow. Well done. Love the societal analysis she offers in her narrative & historical lyrics - morphed creatively into present day.
Texan and Taylor Swift fan here. TPD rules. Florida!!!, But Daddy I Love Him, Down Bad, and Fortnight are the standouts, but the whole album is rad.
I’m proud of her for saying all she says on this album but it did make me sad because of all the crap she’s been through and had to put up with. Maybe they will get the message that it’s her life and they don’t have the right to say what she should or shouldn’t do. Instant masterpiece! ❤❤❤
So, if they don't have a right to say what she should do, you also don't have a right to say what they should do? Which means you don't have a right to say they don't have a right to tell her what she shouldn't do? Weird. It's almost like saying 'you shouldn't tell people what they shouldn't do' is a contradiction. Actually, depending on the exact way we formalize this, it could instead be a self-referential paradox. You might want to think a little bit harder about your principles and see if they make any sense. Also, if your comment is in relation to her dating MH - she very much deserved criticism for that.
@@doxasticc sounds like you are exactly the type of person she’s talking about and to on this album . The audacity to think you have the right to criticize who someone else dates or loves just shows me that you mind everyone’s business but your own. And I never said you couldn’t I said “maybe they will get the message they don’t have the right” and they don’t. At least one clear message Taylor gives to those people is big ol F U. 😊
I don't know what your confusion is. Why did you say you never said they "couldn't"? I never said otherwise? How are you managing to confuse "couldn't" with "shouldn't." Again, if they have "no right" to tell her what she should/shouldn't do, then you also have no right to them what they should/shouldn't do. Unless you're suggesting that Taylor is some special goddess that should be immune to criticism. You're exactly why moral reasoning needs to be taught in schools - this is just embarrassing. Everyone has a "right" to make moral judgments. Which is obvious, and is something you're doing right now. You're making a moral judgment about people who make moral judgments about Taylor. It's bizarre, and astonishing how you don't realize this. But this would be a lot less painful if we just dropped the language of 'rights,' which is a nonsensical concept to begin with.
@@doxasticc I don’t know why you keep rambling off idiotic nonsense that I’m not reading more than 3 words of.
@@christiecook2241 Someone with your intellectual capacity would interpret that as "nonsense." Saying you have no reading comprehension is not the own you think it is. You're not the brightest, huh?
Clara Bow was the start of a movie called IT about a a young anjenue that goes to Hollywood And became Hollywood’s first starlet
Yep. I live in Florida, and I don't see myself ever leaving. I've lived in many places, including CA, and it's Hotel Florida for me. Forever entertained.
Florida..such a great song..as a resident..I approve.
Wow - insightful interview from Taylor. This album is raw emotion & honesty - be gentle. This is her reality.
LOL. She is not going to tell the media ANYTHING! That’s so cute of them to think they’re going to get the key to her vault. This album is for her and her healing. It’s for her fans and the exclamation mark❗️ at the end of so many of her open sentences. Love her. ❤
I love this so much as a Florida and fellow Dateline lover.
We think the same ..... don't let someone with self seeking motives have an influence in your lifestyle ... and speak for others as well..
THANKYOU Taylor, I'm so grateful for you ❤🎉
Love the new album! #ttpd🤍🐾
I am so happy she did a collaboration with Florence and the machines 😍
Quite beautiful and perfect 💘💖
There is always room for Teffy .... I will always have a place in your circle whether with you or someone you are a piece of.....
Cool.
Come to Florida... Siesta Key Sarasota
Her voice is kind of scratchy. Is it recorded the day after Coachella? 😂
As Taylor Swift is supportive of the LGBTQ community and others that are marginalized and criticized by those who think they are "the mainstream," when I saw the song's title I thought in this song she might be critical of Governor DeSantis here in Florida as he has forcefully advanced hateful, anti-LGBTQ, anti-woke" legislation and revisionist anti-black curricula, for example, saying things like slavery actually benefited some people as it gave them job skills. But that's not Taylor Swift's way as this song is about people moving to Florida to start over and escape their wrecked lives elsewhere in the country, a great observation. Not surprisingly, "Florida" is a really beautiful and well-crafted song!! Brava, Taylor Swift!
I have no idea, what is going on in Florida. But Taylor is usually meaning a bunch of things at the same time, even if she reveals one topic, doesn't mean theres not more to it. Somehow if u tell people it's one way - they stop thinking. No offense to you, just wanted to tell you - maybe you're right, even if Taylor said otherwise;)
@@gerhardmueller9616 Thank you, Gerhard. I'm a musician so that's where my primary focus is, it's such a well-constructed and perfect song! I've become a huge fan lately.
💜💜💜
This audio is from iHeart radio
Is there a full version of the interview where we can listen to?
Ummm Anybody realize she said Who's afraid of little old me was a single🫢😯
Yes i thought that was odd too maybe it was a slip or foreshadowing of it being a single. It would be a good choice.
is it? for real? when how did I miss that?
Literally trying to save myself the embarrassment of getting arrested in Arkansas and have been eyeing Florida and forming stronger bonds with my connections out there. LOL
Who’s afraid of little old me My boy only breakers his favourite toys Fortnight But daddy I love him Florida!!!
I swear she watched Toy Story 2 then said you know what I can makes a song about that😀
The thing is, will Travis be able to keep her mentally satisfied? This is the same dude who tweeted "i just gave a squirle a piece of bread"...
So he sees beauty in the small things in life... yeah, I think he's gonna do just fine.
Yeah... idk... he's not in her league intelectually but maybe that can be compensated with kindness? Hopefully...
I think Taylor is fine with the way Travis is and wouldn't change a thing about him.
I think you're right. although who knows, maybe the aristotle girl needs a jock guy? we don't know her, she might love her lyrical musical nerd life with Aaron and jack, but enjoy the party life with Travis. clearly her and Joe didn't work out, and he wasn't the exuberant party guy.
Travis seems like he has the capacity to grow and learn and get interested in the things she loves, too. He did say that she opened him up to music he hadn't been into before. And that he is learning and experiencing a lot with her.
I’ve lived in Florida for 35 yrs. We’re not all on the lamb. Really
As a person born and raised in Florida . I CAN SAY THIS WITH HISTORICAL KNOWLEDGE. FLORIDA IS OVER RATED.
I know, born there, its really awful in non-vacay spots
These or this Clip all above you’v aiming for me My hearts belongs to your Heart MyDear nice words I happen to know your Gorgeously Beautifully Exquisitely each other my homes are Palisades Palaces ii left all a 21 year old I’m living the simple life at this moment of time
OMG on top of 31 songs... She explained? Yeeez. Over exposed over explained.
They are just repeating what she says….
Does Taylor Swift know that Olivia Rodrigo is talking about her
I think Taylor Swift "Who is afraid of little old me" goes well with all the bullying and shaming trump and his minions were doing as soon she asked people to vote.
There’s a meaning🤪
I am commenting #BringBackDislikes on every unique KZhead video for the rest of 2024, regardless of if I actually dislike the video or not. This is video 356.
I wish I wrote that song with u mother oR I wish we wRote that song together as a couple just saying
Her voice changed a lot and she uses mire if the fried voice too. It's sounds like she overused her voiced and forced it a lot. She can no longer sing songs like dear John anymore.
Use new pictures please, not old ones.
This is so ominous and creepy.
That albums cover is ridiculous. Old mainstream entertainment industry is dead…has been dead.
🤮
No one cares
then y r u watching the video? lol
Don't watch them
There are more important people to tell us about! Seems like all you hear about is her. She is not so innocent. She has been known to talk and act negatively against certain celebs. She has a good and evil personality. I gave seen and heard it over and over. Just move on and find a new subject please. It's your job so find some new material.
Maybe don't tap on video which has her face and her name CLEARLY on it, sounds like you're obsessed with her🤷
Poor travis getting screwed
she's not that innocent, lol.
She needs to stop hurting men
@@orraNier-rb2unsure sure she's the albatross 🥱
This comment makes the song "The albatross" more relevant
Just tell travis the truth dont fuck with his feeling
He has a brain he can take his own decisions
She has a brain don't fuck with someone feeling don't love him tell him
Tell her to let him go don't lead him on loves Matty ass
Fake realtionship with travis
imagine being so pathetic, u have to make up assumptions about a person who doesnt even know u exist
Horrible attempt at spamming
