[claredevlinn]

in honour of the official beginning of taylor’s version era, what’s the first song of hers you absolutely adored (no cheating with belated favourites)

[lesbianboyfriends]

I can’t believe Taylor’s about to own 4/9 albums tonight

[jessicascontes]

okay yall question.. when Fearless ( Taylor’s Version ) drops... are you listening in order, or going to your favourite tracks first?

[goldtiedmetoyou]

In order for sure. Fearless is the only one of her albums (aside from debut of course) where I didn’t experience it front to end first, since I was introduced to it through the radio. I am gonna take this opportunity to rectify that now that it’s here.

Me waking up from a depression nap just to figure out Taylors clues

[goldtiedmetoyou]

Has anyone noticed the Elvis references on Evermore? I have noticed two, one during the bridge for Champagne Problems (The lyrics of Blue Suede Shoes) and during Dorothea (Tupelo, Elvis’ birthplace). Was curious if there were any that I didn’t notice (not being super knowledgeable on the topic of Elvis) and if anyone had any ideas as to what their meaning could be (or that there isn’t any idk).

(For anyone who doesn’t know the Elvis song, the Blue Suede Shoes lyric goes... “Well, it's one for the money, Two for the show, Three to get ready, Now go, cat, go.” And Taylor’s lyrics are “One for the money, two for the show, I never was ready, so I watched you go”).

[cozy-the-overlord]

That’s really interesting about Tupelo and Dorothea. The “one for the money ...” verse isn’t necessarily an Elvis reference— it’s a children’s schoolyard rhyme that’s been around since the mid-1800’s that Carl Perkins (the writer of “Blue Suede Shoes”) modified for the song. I had assumed she had just used it to show the narrator’s fear of commitment (the rhyme is about hyping yourself up to do something, but the narrator in “champagne problems” backs out before the action can take place), but it is interesting that she also namedrops his home town later in the album. I always thought that was a random choice, but nothing Taylor ever does is random.

[goldtiedmetoyou]

I also looked into Carl Perkins too but I had no idea it was a schoolyard rhyme! I figured there must be something in that reference I was missing because I didn’t understand it’s context in either song. Makes a lot more sense now.

I have been twisting myself trying to understand why Taylor chose Tupelo of all places to call out in this album. The connection to the Elvis song was the first thing that felt like a possible link to me, but it could be unrelated since it’s also the words of the schoolyard rhyme you mentioned. She could have just used that city because the name sounded cool when sung in the song lol I just love analyzing her lyrics.
