the thing about a taylor swift song is that it's always country even when it's not. the other thing is she has mega catchy pop melodies shooting out of her fingertips at all times

something about taylor using the weight of the rock to make herself stronger instead of the kettle bell right next to her is so poignant to me

The different colours are onyx, opalite, moon stone and sapphire…sapphire tears on my face…some guy said my auras moon stone…she really said I’m still bejewelled and my sky is opalite too

My favorite part about writing is that first spark of an idea. It can happen at any time, for any reason. The idea for the Opalite music video crash landed into my imagination when I was doing promo for The Life of a Showgirl. I was a guest on one of my favorite shows, The Graham Norton Show. For those of you who aren’t familiar, it’s a UK late night show where Graham Norton (the insanely charismatic and lovable host) invites a random group of actors, entertainers, musicians, etc to be on his show and we all sit there and chat like it’s a dinner party. They even serve wine. Anyway. I remember thinking I got ridiculously lucky with the group I was paired with. Cillian Murphy, Domhnall Gleeson, Greta Lee, Jodie Turner-Smith, and Lewis Capaldi. All people whose work I’ve admired from afar. When we were all talking during the broadcast, Domhnall made a light hearted joke about wanting to be in one of my music videos. He’s Irish! He was joking! Except that in that moment during the interview, I was instantly struck with an *idea*. And so a week later he received an email script I’d written for the Opalite video, where he was playing the starring role. I had this thought that it would be wild if all of our fellow guests on the Graham Norton show that night, including Graham himself, could be a part of it too. Like a school group project but for adults and it isn’t mandatory. To my delight, everyone from the show made the effort to time travel back to the 90’s with us and help with this video. You might even recognize some friendly faces from The Eras Tour. I got to work with one of my favorite people in the world, Rodrigo Prieto, again! I had more fun than I ever imagined - Made new friends, metaphors, and fashion choices. It was an absolute thrill to create this story and these characters. Shot on film. The Opalite video is out now on Spotify & Apple Music.

okay i'm posing the question to the broader audience: in accepting her nomination for the songwriters' hall of fame, taylor selected five all too well (10 minute version), blank space, anti-hero, love story, and the last great american dynasty. from a songwriting perspective, what do you think are the five LEAST representative songs* in taylor's discography?

*representation is not about quality. this is not "let's bash taylor's five worst songs!" it's "which five songs are the most different/unlike the rest of her discography/not symbolic of her work as a body?"

[darkbluetennessee]

so apparently taylor had to select five of her own songs to represent her songwriting career to be considered for the songwriters hall of fame. she chose all too well 10, blank space, anti hero, love story, and the last great american dynasty [x]

if you had to choose the five songs to represent taylor's songwriting career, what would you pick??

[falsegod]

If you could choose, would you rather get a mashup or one song from beginning to end as a surprise song

one song

mashup
