🤫
1. I LOVE HOW UNAPOLOGETIC YOU ARE! you're not afraid to say what you think and feel and then defend those things. Its really inspiring
2. In the short time I've known you, you have been SO kind and supportive 💗. You seem to really care about people and their wellbeing
3. It was so fun to find out that you are an Avril fan!!! Its been a LONG time since I knew anyone else who liked her music
Bonus: its been fun to have someone to scream about my new found love for reylo with (I'm notoriously late to the party for everything, so it's always nice to fine people to get excited with when it's new for me 😂)
LOVE YOU EMILY!!!! 💜💜💜
Send me a 🤫 and I’ll tell you 3 things I’ve thought about you!
🤫
1. I don’t like Reylo at all but I would fix tros and directed/given the reylo you deserve
2. YOU ARE A FORCE TO BE RECKONED WITH!!!! YOU WOULD BE COMPETENT AT ANY JOB THROWN AT YOU!!! (I still believe this always)
3. Emily’s sense of loyalty and justice are as fierce as her fury. And I love it.
Send me a 🤫 and I’ll tell you 3 things I’ve thought about you
Hi Maria I don’t think I’ve seen you talk abt The Man?? So I wanna know if you have any Insights to share on that one thank
HI EMILY!!
yay thank you!! :)
I love The Man! I think it’s great!
I have two major thoughts.
1. It’s interesting and important that Taylor isn’t saying she wants to be able to do all the things the song mentions? I don’t think she actually WANTS to “play the field” (because she wouldn’t be Taylor without her lifelong search for romantic love that, on the whole, has been the guiding force behind her romantic decisions). She says “They’d say”. She chafes at the fact that her actions would be interpreted differently if she were a man and I believe her. I think it’s especially true in Taylor’s case, even over many other women. Because she has such a strong and, as Emma always says, un-charming personality, and those qualities are often accepted or at the very least not despised as much in men. She has a matter-of-fact approach to her business with a strong competitive edge and I’ve personally heard those very qualities derided by people who would not and do not say the same thing about men. Also. The song is a pushback against the narratives and thinkpieces and twitter hashtags directed at her, not just a plea for her to be able to behave as badly as men are frequently “allowed to”. “I’m so sick of them coming at me again” she says. And I believe that she’s tired!
2. The song still has Taylor’s trademark vulnerability and honesty and you know how I was talking about how Taylor’s songs always have a moment where the song breathes and pauses? In the song it happens after she sings “so it’s okay that I’m mad.” The song takes a breath there because it’s the point of the song. She isn’t fighting about the right to “brag about raking in dollars and getting bitches and models” necessarily (though she wonders what it would be like) but it IS about the right for her to be mad. And I quite like the simplicity and sweetness of the way she phrases it AND sings it. It’s okay, she says. It’s okay. Just let it be. Let ME be. Let me be mad.
And tbh yeah.
Also, full disclosure: when I first it I SCREAMED at the Leo reference. #savage !!!!! (Especially considering the fact that Taylor always got so much flak for being friends with models.)
IT IS @darkeststar310 ‘s BIRTHDAY TODAY !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
YOU ARE SO FUNNY, INTELLIGENT AND AN OVERALL AMAZING PERSON !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

hi hi Emily!! <3 I think for you, the song that fits best is Clean:
Ten months sober, I must admitJust because you're clean, don't mean you don't miss itTen months older, I won't give inNow that I'm clean, I'm never gonna risk it
+
The rain came pouring downWhen I was drowning, that's when I could finally breatheAnd by morningGone was any trace of you, I think I am finally clean
Clean is particularly important to me because it is a song that is, essentially, about forgiving yourself for becoming someone different than you used to be. It’s a song that understands that when you undergo great heartbreak, tribulations, and trauma, that there is no way under, over, or around it- you simply have to go through it, however daunting and impossible it seems. I think usually we tend to take for granted how comfortable we are with ourselves, until it becomes impossible for us to be that person anymore- we rebel against that change, and refuse to remold our identity along with all this new information about our souls. But eventually, there has to come a time, after great changes, that you have to look yourself in the eye and let what you once were step away, and what you are now step into the ring.
I haven’t known you very long, Emily, but I have faith in this for you- that you are a person who can be changed, who can be ready to meet it. That you can heal, that you can become someone else. That you can grow through the rainstorms, and let go of what used to be. That you’ll meet the light, when it comes out of the darkness. I have faith that your identity is in healing, not in hurting. This song brought that for me- so I hope it brings a little for you, too. <3
I assume you are a powerful speaker with fabulous hair and a slightly scary, but commanding presence. Also I assume you’re tall(er than me at least).
Wow I do not deserve!
My hair only looks good in selfies, I do think I can be a bit scary, and I am 5′6″. But I’ll take all the compliments :D
Innocence and instinct - RED (For he ask game!)
@darkeststar310 you are so overdue for this answer I don’t know how to apologize, like ask me anything and I will give it to you!
Thank you for asking me about RED! I love them so much because they sing the darkest parts of the human soul and make it tangible and beautiful. Anyway, I’m pretty sure with this ask game I was supposed to tell you my top three favorite songs from the album, but guess what? I DO WHAT I WANT. SO YOU GET MY TOP FOUR IN NO PARTICULAR ORDER
1. Fight Inside: Look, there are a few songs I turn to when I am writing a story or hunting for the perfect angsty song to ascribe to my favorite characters. One of these songs is Fight Inside. The inner war inside the mind, the whispered “It’s nothing, it’s everything,” every single contrast…so much pain, so much broken humanity
2. Mystery of You: This is one of my ALL-TIME FAVORITE RED songs. There is pain here as well, the pain of the unknown, the lost, the longing. Like many of RED’s songs, this one breathes spiritual themes (at least in my mind) and so depending on what I am thinking about it can have so many different layers and levels. My favorite lines (I’m lying I love every single line):
“You touch the deepest part of meThe places I could not saveJust tell me why I’m so dark inside”
That need to be understood, to be able to understand oneself, the idea that knowing and understanding might be a step to love and peace…which it must be, because even with all our failings how can one TRULY know and understand oneself or another without loving them at least a little?
3. Never Be the Same: Yet another song that can be read on a spiritual or non-spiritual level. A song about being transformed by the love of someone, and how the love for that person will never die, no matter if that person is gone or cannot be felt. Maybe it is about two people who have loved one another and gone their separate ways, maybe it is about someone who has died, maybe it is about the relationship between God and a person…whatever it is I love it
and
4. Forever: THIS IS MY FAVORITE RED SONG. MAYBE. IT IS AMAZING. THIS IS EVERYTHING. IT IS ABOUT LOVE AND PATIENCE AND FORGIVENESS AND AWE AT ALL OF THOSE THINGS. IT IS REUNION OF TWO BEINGS. IT IS THE PRODIGAL SON RETURNING TO THE FATHER. IT IS GOD SAVING THE SINNER. IT IS JOY AND WONDER AND DISBELIEF AND OH GOSH I HAVE SO MANY FEELINGS
CAN I CHOOSE A FAVORITE LINE PROBABLY NOT
I LOVE THE BRIDGE AND CHORUS THOUGH:
You gave me so much more Than I could ever ask for But I turned and followedA road that left me hollowAnd still you waited for me to come back homeYou brought me home…But you chased me down and broke in just when I was done believing Spun me ‘round so close now I can feel you breathingSunlight burns inside and I feel so alive andHelp me now, tell me how How can this last forever, forever
