Candy

I couldn't wait to jump right in and drool over Scott Eastwood - yum. And there are no words for how Tay conveys old Hollywood glam - perfect-o! You girls look stupdendous and the new space...10 stars!

Becky Tucker

Girls, the setup is absolutely stunning!! 🤩

Monica

Bonny drop the hair routine NOW! your hair is offensive 🫶🏼

Jenn Hamel

People not giving credit to midnights straight out CONFUSE ME??????? like I didn’t even know that was happening because it’s so deeply superior

Ava Joyce

people also think that this song is about matthew gray gubler (i’d totally get it) but does anyone know where that stems from ??

alex

I was in a real need of a new video today and this is so offensive! One of my favorite music videos ever!

alex

Since I’m not a YouTube comment girlie I want to thank you on here for this beautiful vlog! I was crying within the first ten seconds but it was worth it 🥲 Bonny you outdid yourself with the editing!

Austin Smith

Excuse me, but did yall watch True Blood??? Superior show ❤️ That’s where I was introduced to Alexander Skarsgaard as well

lane ♡︎

Wait I’m so happy to be getting this today!! Also both of your hair styles look so pretty in this video ☀️🩵☀️

Hannah Threadgill

The alexander skarsgård lore tho. The giver was filmed in AFRICA!

Hannah Threadgill

He’s also tall. I also love that she’s kept it a secret. Makes the whole story that much better.

lane ♡︎

Does anyone just go to Taylor’s discography on Spotify and admire it & then just imagine seeing TTPD being added to that list and rep & debut? I simply just get a dose of serotonin when I visualize what we’re getting and how we’re so lucky

Hannah Threadgill

Ugh I bet there’s Easter eggs in the video only he would understand ☠️

ton

Blank Space is my fave MV but thanks I haven’t paid this one enough attention

tbeckett

This video has always been gorgeous to me.

Hannah Threadgill

Aside from that incredible lore, it’s genuinely the most visually perfect video she’s ever done. Hands down.

TScout

Ditto!

Olivia E

loveee the new setup it’s so cute!!

TScout

The new setup looks beautiful! 💛

Hadas Kaplan

One thought on "who is it about" - Harry has a song, "Him", and these are some of the lyrics: And I don't wanna hear about him In these songs you continue to write I was with you when you wrote that line It was me that you had on your mind ... That nice dress in my wildest dreams The lipstick stains you left still on my sheets It always made me think he hints that Taylor wrote Wildest Dreams on him

Hadas Kaplan

Like... nice dress? wildest dreams?? LIPSTICK STAINS? HELPPPPPP

Patty Minor

Look up Scott’s father Clint Eastwood. Back in my days he was the man. They look just like each other.

Katie K

This new filming space is SO SLAY!! Thank you so much for the change of scenery. Very much on board with these new chairs! Get some for Bonny’s House as well if they make the legs less ill 💛😂

lane ♡︎

The Revenant is not boring 😭 Emily is SO right about the landscaping. It gives you so much context of a story!!

Katie K

ALSO this is so random and unrelated to Wildest Dreams but I was listened to evermore today (like most days tbh) and was trying to really fathom Closure again and I remember you guys saying in a video like a few months ago on here that you’d had some breakthrough fathomings on it but would discuss at a later date and I just wondered if that was still coming? Because I’m so curious!! 🫶🏻🤍

Anna Mehrbilder

thank you so much for rethinking, rewording your general idea about midnights. it took me FOREVER to start (!) getting midnights. I had such a moment the other day with mastermind for example. there are obvious immediate stars (yoyok, maroon and the complete 3 am and of course the superior hits different and ylm), but the rest of the songs really took a while :-)

Takara

Portland shout out in this video 🩵🩵🩵

Tess7

The new set up is just wonderful! You both look amazing, as usual. I love the Wildest Dreams video (I think the Rep ones slay tho). It was not without its controversy- because Taylor could not do ANYTHING without criticism at this time. Part of the controversy involved the animals, hence her donating profits from the video. The other criticism was just ridiculous- google wildest dreams video controversy to read about it. I enjoyed this discussion so much, and Emily made me lol with her hair comments 😄 Can’t wait until the next video.

Jade

Loving the new set up and this is a superior breakdown

Mequet

Just started the video and I have to say that I love every time Emily does her squealing HEEEHEEEHEEEHEEE it sends me every time

Sarah

Omg I was definitely team Eric when I watched True Blood back in the day!!

Candy

Okay, I might need you to move that candle because I am totally stressing...waiting for one of you to catch fire or to knock it off.

Tess7

I have watched the grammy video a few times lol every time, I shout at the screen “that’s right!” When Bonny says “this is for all the fucking fans that didn’t respect Midnights!” I love Midnights and knew from the drop it was album of the year. Almost every grammy prediction video I watched said it wouldn’t win and most said it shouldn’t win. I’m still mad Anti Hero lost, but that is mostly because the writer of a generation should have a song writing Grammy lol. Love you guys!

Mex

really?? i love him!! dr. spencer reid is one of the best characters ever created for television. his role is so unique and he's so kind in real life

Ava Joyce

he seems like the SWEETEST!! i’ve never heard a bad word about him!! love spencer reid 🫶🏼

Katie K

Oooh cryptic ending!! Am intrigued. Always excited for whatever you girlies have in store next I’m sure it’s superior. Very happy you’re continuing with the secret song re-fathomings because I love those! 💛

Jenny MacRunnel

I hadn't watched this MV in a long time, you girls are right, I think it is the best one of 1989. But Out of the Woods is still my personal fave ;)

Katie K

Omg I listened to this for the first time a few months and was floored! “I was with you when you wrote that line” Even if Wildest Dreams isn’t about Harry he certainly believes it is!

anya

why do i feel like taylor kissed him way more times then she usually does with others actors in her MV's. so iconic of you miss swift

Katie K

And you are absolutely correct Wildest Dreams is the most superior music video in every way! This is one of the few I will go back and rewatch regularly ✨💛🦒📽️

Den

I also love that it was all shot with natural light which made it super hard but incredibly beautiful and you can somehow tell that it is mother nature and not cgi so it feels extra special.

Jenny M

Tell me if you girls noticed the Zebra in the video cause you didn't say anything about it when it appeared on the screen.

Cláudia Cerqueira

Loved the video! Something that I never seen anyone comment, is how this MV might be inspired in the movie Out of Africa, the imagery is very similar and the story of the movie is about cheating, and you have Meryl Streep in brown hair as well! Just find it fascinating that Taylor really gets inspiration from such different things, and if not inspired, huge coincidence as it happens often with Taylor also! 😅 Just by watching the trailer you can see the similar vibes!

Den

I was thinking about the controversy as well. People will just find any opportunity to critisize without care of the actual circumstances and always hold Taylor to a higher standard than everyone ese.

💯

Yas!! Let us have our save space. Screw youtube

Mex

the new setup at emily's is so good! do we get to call em's boyfriend a couch friend now? i can't wait to see an album reaction shot here. instead of tipping backwards off of the floor cushion, emily will be throwing herself off of her chair when something offensive happens!!!

Ileana Isabel

I'll be honest, this was when my Scott Eastwood crush started🤣🤣 but that aside, THIS MUSIC VIDEO IS SO ICONIC!!! I'm so excited to hear your commentary!

M

I forgot how iconic the wildest dreams music video is!!! Thank you for the fathomings!!! 💛💛💛 also I would love if you girls did a video on eras tips/advice for people who have yet to go to the show!!! 🥰

Maria Clara

The set up is gorgeoussssss💛⭐️🌻🌝🌙🌼🐝🐥🐣 just like you two little chickens

Terah Moxley

Y’all look like such bright, happy chickens! I love it!!

Jennifer

From the 33:06 fathoming of that final shot of the cinema, I also think it is interesting that she intentionally cut off the shot of the billboard of herself just beneath the eyes so that it mirrored the 1989 original cover. I so often go back to what we all fathomed with the Now That We Don’t Talk lyrics “And the only way back to my dignity was to turn into a shrouded mystery, just like I had been when you were chasing me, Guess this is how it has to be now that we don’t talk”, the fact that maybe Taylor is not showing her eyes in the 1989 OG cover to portray trying to be the “cool girl/shrouded mystery” as a defense mechanism from that relationship’s breakdown rather than because that is how she truly felt — Obviously these songs may or may not be connected, but I think that an interesting evolution from 1989 OG to 1989 TV is the ability to be more free, open, and vulnerable and it is interesting to think about how the general “turning into a shrouded mystery” sentiment is echoed in this music video! As always, thank you for making me smile with this video and I LOVE the yellow dresses!! 🫶🏻

Courtney Brooks

Sooooooo happy to see yall in comfy chairs!!!!!

MarkH

Nice to have one of these kinds of videos again; feels like readjusting to normalcy a bit, after your epic Eras Tour experience. Hope you are enjoying the outpouring of love for your vlog; wonderful editing, there, by the way! One thing I noticed at the end of the Wildest Dreams video is that the movie poster is cut off in exactly the same place, just below the eyes, as the original 1989 cover. Don't know if it means anything but it is kind of interesting.Also, Taylor's acting in this video is really good--I feel that is underappreciated.

Ash2205

are u guys planning on reacting to the eras tour movie?

Laura R

I'm really fixating on the "August 2, 1950" in the beginning of the MV. Does anyone know what the connection is? I've been digging online, and the only things I have found that might make sense are: 1) Marjorie won a radio music contest in 1950 that then took her on tour. I couldn't find the month/day of the contest, though. 2) The movie "Sunset Boulevard" came out on August 2, 1950. I haven't seen it but know it's a well-known movie. The fact that "Slut!" includes "sunrise boulevard" is the only reason I thought there might be a connection. If you guys have insights, I'm dying to know!

Christine Violet

I didn’t realize that the music video is more orchestral in sound! This makes so much sense, because over the years, when I hear the song, sometimes it appeals to me more than other times (instrumentally- the lyrics are always so offensive), and I just fathomed that the version I love the most is the music video version! 🤯

Ida Just

I NEED you guys to be fathoming why you think we never got a 1989 vaults track music video?! Like out of ALL the re-recordings she only didn't do one for 1989 TV? It feels just so wild to me. I would love to hear what you guys think the reason is for this. I saw a theory somewhere that Matt Healy from 1975 was meant to be featured on Slut, and a video was made for it. But that whole feature got sacked after the backlash and their brake-up but also... if this was the case surely Taylor had time between their break-up and 1989 TV coming out to make a new music video had she actually wanted to make that for us? IDK don't think I'll ever get over the heartbreak of not getting a new music video from my favourite era </3.

boliaam

i really think you guys would like the Hailee Steinfeld music (HAIZ, Half Written Story, the droplets), i can feel the inspiration on Taylor Swift on her songs.

Ileana Isabel

Omg please please if you do want to keep doing 1989 era, please do some interviews!!! That would be so interesting to see how she was feeling and talking about the album back then!

Emily Warfield

It would be so cool to re-fathom rep music videos!!

Linda

Y'all look so beautiful!! 💖

Dany Rv

Guys loved this video!!! Em!! Of course and iconic women need a nearly iconic man!!! Guys everything is beautiful just a little recommendation i think the camera is a Little too close maybe if you just move it or in 0.7x well if you could. If not it’s beautiful as it is 😊🍀🤩

Anna Miotello

Taylor be like: "Sorry, Scott, I'm afraid the camera wasn't filming, so we need to shoot that passionate kissing scene again!" 🤡

Anna Miotello

I had the biggest crush on that man so I really hope it's a true story. Taylor truly has a stunning lineup of very hot ex-lovers. 🔥

Tess7

Exactly- you are so right

Rick

you guys truly are my serotonin love u sm 🥹

Aloha Record Sargent

In my mind, this song is 100% about Harry Styles, and follows the same theme of knowing it was doomed from the start, but doing it anyway. Also, "his voice is a familiar sound" seems like a reference to him being a singer. And finally, Harry references the Wildest Dreams song lyrics in his own song, "Him"!!

Rick

the giver was filmed in South Africa as well!!!

Annika 📍Melb, AU

Emily’s boyfriend Kalin (sorry don’t know how to spell!) is superior!!! 😍

Kirrily Lewis

I would also love another dramatic love story type music video like this em that’s believable! Love a mini film moment!

Kirrily Lewis

Also thinking about Rep tv - I’ve had a look at the dates and the original release date was 10th November and she is having an eras tour break from the 3rd to the 14th of November so my guess is Rep TV will be out 8th November as that’s a Friday. And that gives TPD 7 months. What do you guys think?

Kirrily Lewis

I love the visuals and don’t feel like the camera is too close, it looks perfect. Although full view of the iconic lamp would be sweet… can you put it where the candle is? You guys should get nice chair like these to sit on at Bonnys house too. I want you to be more comfortable 😛

Alexa

It does seem pretty convincing that this song is about Alexander Skarsgard. Her dark hair both in the MV and in the movie they filmed together, the "he's so tall" reference, the fact that they filmed the movie in Africa as well, etc. I also found out from Reddit that there's an unreleased Harry song – allegedly about Taylor – in which he mentions "songs you write about him" and "wildest dreams" – maybe further indication that this song is about another guy? However, this just made me think — what if Slut! is about AS as well? –she mentions “in a world of boys, he’s a gentleman” - hard to think she wrote this about Harry, as he was literally a kid when they dated. if anything, it's more of a diss at H –“love to think you’ll never forget” - very similar to “say you’ll remember me” –someone said in a comment here that the movie "Sunset Boulevard" came out on August 2, 1950 — parallel with “Sunrise Boulevard” in Slut! –“flamingo pink, Sunrise Boulevard” - clearly set in LA, where they apparently had a few dinners?

Miantsa

OMG I'VE BEEN PATIENTLY WAIIIITING for this one!! This music video and song will forever live rent free in my mind... I have such an attachment to them - that grand feeling they convey... UGH. I remember you mentioning the different outro instrumental of the MV version in your first 1989 breakdown, and maybe it's an unpopular opinion but I actually much prefer the album version with the heartbeat because I feel like it's more subtle and smooth. But for the MV I agree it makes sense with the premiere and the ostentatious feel (all the camera flashes, gowns etc.) Ironically though, while I do think Wildest Dreams TV is amazing, I feel like the new version does miss that orchestral feel throughout the song. Especially starting verse 2. The layering of the instruments is much much farther in the back and we don't feel that DEPTH of emotions from the orchestra as much as in the stolen version. Anyway. I still think it's amazing and this music video is MOST DEFINITELY HER BEST T_T

Annika 📍Melb, AU

On IMDB the character name for Scott Eastwood in Wildest Dreams is Robert Kingsley. Apparently her Grandfather was Robert Finlay and Scott Swift’s middle name is Kingsley!

Zosia Dabrowski

Ok I have SO MANY THOUGHTS TO SHARE about this music video. Back in I think 2015 or 16 I read an article which further embedded my hatred of Taylor Swift as a person 🫣 about how the Wildest Dreams music video was glamourising colonialist Africa and was therefore out of touch at best, and racist at worst. Combined with her at-the-time girl-power version of “white feminism” and silence on so many important and topical sociopolitical issues, I thought she did not hold my social justice values, and the interpretation of this video was even more reason for me to dislike her at the time. (I became a Swiftie through Reputation and Lover and then Miss Americana fully embedded my understanding of her and love for her as a person, a full 180). I watched the Wildest Dreams video just the other day for the first time since 2015, and as well as having Bon and Em’s references to Marjorie in my mind, it hit me out of the blue that Taylor looked SO MUCH like Elizabeth Taylor, and I was thinking there must be some significance to setting the MV in Africa, so I looked up Elizabeth Taylor and Africa….. and guess what happened on safari in 1975? Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton re-married. Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton got together on the set of a movie in the 1950s while they were both married, but they had such intense chemistry that they couldn't stay apart. Their relationship was so intense and turbulent and on-again-off-again. I can see why our Taylor is so taken by the story of Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton, and it looks like Ready For It wasn’t the first reference to their story!

Alexis Brusby

This is definitely about Harry! It’s about being in the public eye! It’s play on their situationship haha she had to pretend in public “the movie” that she wasn’t angry. Just like she said “the only way back to my dignity, was to become a shrouded mystery” which is also about Harry! Thoughts?!?

Cordelia De Luna

Noooooo!!! Wait!! The rearview thing: "This is a big world/That was a small town/There in my rearview mirror disappearing now/And it's too late for you and your white horse to catch me now" And that's EXACTLY WHAT'S HAPPENING!!!!!! HELP!!!!!

Aloha Record Sargent

Agree it's 100% about Harry. It fits the entire theme of their relationship perfectly.

Zosia Dabrowski

Also regarding her hair colour here, I’m into colour seasons and Taylor Swift is widely used as an example of a light Spring, which is warm-toned but overall light in colour. But here with her dark hair, she transforms into a Bright Spring, which is warm-toned but with high contrast, even down to her eyes being bright and vivid. It’s why her look works so well, it’s still within her season, but they’ve dialled up the contrast so she can shine in more vivid colours. Normally with her light hair, she of course looks gorgeous in every colour, but black is not her best neutral, and she looks best in light warm tones

Aloha Record Sargent

I think the line from Slut! that indicates it's definitely about Harry is "Everyone wants him, that was my crime"

Zosia Dabrowski

(Btw thank you so much to Em’s partner for introducing himself, Emily your partner is a hottie 🥵)

Felipe Machado

Please do a fathoming of like "where we are" in Taylor's career/discography leading to ttpd! I personally view post-midnights to be some sorta act II, specially considering she did THE eras your up to this point, not sooner not later. I'd love to hear your thoughts on this!

Jennifer

So my favorite fathoming in this video is the change to "even if it's just pretend" occuring after they have returned from Africa. Everything about that scene is fabricated/pretend. The backdrop, the sets, even the relationship "love" is a facade they have to put on to make the movie work as the cracks in the relationship take over. Such a phenomenal moment.

Joe Weaver

I'm not sure if I'm ready for the sitting in chairs era! We've gone from the floor to the cushions to chairs? I'm sure your bodies will be the better for it though! No more :EmStretch: with ill legs! 😂

Mex

scott eastwood's character is named robert kingsley on the theatre marquee

Zosia Dabrowski

OR it could be Harry referencing Wildest Dreams as the song she's written about someone else?? I dunno I'm still torn

Zosia Dabrowski

I was a Taylor hater back then so the rhetoric about colonialism informed my dislike of her! But since recognising the references to Marjorie in her look, and also fathoming just the other day that the Wildest Dreams MV plot and setting and aesthetic mirrors so much of Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton's story, it makes so much more sense as to why she chose to do the MV like this

Mex

i looked up robert kingsley and the only person of note that i could find was a guy who was a writer for a short lived british television show called hard cases that came out in 1989

Alana Ashley

Wildest Dreams is literally just one of the best songs of all time, and this video with it, a true masterpiece, also I love the yellow dresses, yellow is my favorite color and it’s so happy and bright and Taylor looks STUNNING in that dress I swear it needs to be in a museum, okay lol xoxo

Fahmeen

I so agree! I would love to see more acted out realistic music videos. I know she directs her own videos now and she’s amazing at it but all my favorite music videos are by Joseph Kahn 😭

Rachel

you guys should do a music video ranking video!!

Elis Llinares

The cinematography for this video reminds me so much of Alexi Lubormiski’s work. Some of his images have this golden glow and lots of blurry foreground elements. I remember when I first watched it I went to check who the cinematographer was cause I was sure it would have been Lubormiski.

Havana Tinker

love the new set up!! it’s so cute and vibey, the outfits today too, so adorable!!

Jo

Love the new set up - you both are little rays of sunshine in yellow!

Erica

The way you said zebra and pseudonym was wild!!

ella.pxner

The film they‘re shooting reminds me so much of Out of africa

Mary Cousins

OOTW song and video made me a swiftie 🩵

Mary Cousins

Omg Scott Eastwood has a famous father called Clint Eastwood. Us older swifties will remember him 🔥 A-ah so looking forward to the video reaction 🧡💛🧡

Willow

Love the setup so much💛💛💛💛💛💛

Gary

I've always wondered ever since she name dropped them in Ready For It if this video was partially inspired by Elizabeth Taylor & Richard Burton, since they were both married when they met while filming Cleopatra. The black hair is obviously a Marjorie reference but it also gives major 50s Liz Taylor vibes with the styling. I also used to go back-and-forth on whether the cut to them being on the soundstage was meant to reveal that they were never on-location in Africa and that all the memories she has of their relationship are through the lens of her "Wildest Dreams" of romantic scenarios in a beautiful, exotic place, when really all she got was them sneaking some alone time during smoke breaks or between scenes.

angel (plnkblue)

i think taylor was able to “pull off” the dark hair look by potentially darkening or otherwise altering (thinning, shaping, etc) her eyebrows for the shoot, since those are often the biggest thing contrasting with a hair color. as someone who dyes their hair a lot, i’ve found that i can only really pull off dark colors bc i have super thick, dark eyebrows that i refuse to change up hskdjd

angel (plnkblue)

“you see me in hindsight” vs “i almost felt i must look better in the rearview” 😭

Annabel

Love the new set up ladies. Looks so profesh 💁🏻‍♀️💁🏼‍♀️

Sarah Louise

I’ll join your landscape conversation Emily! And say that’s one of the reasons I love Cold Mountain with Nicole Kidman - the landscapes in it!

Anna-Liesa

Girls love the new set up but please put something other than a candle between you, I was soo afraid your hair or cloths would start to burn any second🥺😅

maya zutra

The setup is pretty almost like the mv

Mckenzie Seims

speak now vaults will probably always be my favorite, they blew me away and brought me back to the age I was with Speak Now 🥹 also Midnights is deeply iconiccccc

Mckenzie Seims

video idea is doing a “makeover” on em with dark hair (not permanently I think she’d look gorgggg as always!) dark, short fingerwaves with gatsby vibes???

Juliette 🤍

Loved this mv breakdown 💛 and loved your outfits too 🥹

Abby

Watching from Canada and my husband, from a different room, just went “naaaauuuuur”

Swiftie_mixer

Didn't new romantics have a music video ish?

Yakir Kobaivanov

I would have to disagree with you girls, I think seeing them "on set" means we get to see the truth for the first time in the video...it was her.."wildest dreams" they were in Africa, it was her wildest dreams they flew off a plane into the sunset and it was her wildest dreams he had some sort of feelings back. We see her delusion and what she led herself to percieve as truth, she created an imaginary world where the two of them are somewhat alone in this romantic grandiose adventure. The "on set" scene lets us know nothing ever happened, they filmed in that location all along. She caught feelings for him and in her head eveything that we see didn't happen in reality.

Yakir Kobaivanov

Loved the video regardless of course! And the new set looks amazing ❤️

Jed

"Every FORTNIGHT" hahaha so funny. Can't just have a normal conversation without taylor jumping into our brains. With every new song she steals another word

Saarz23

I love that Taylor is branching out and directing her own music videos, the past few years. However, in doing that we have also lost an external party, i.e. the director directing her music videos. To get an outsiders professional direction and there takes on the music and songs and lyrics themselves. Interpreting them and putting them into a music video that is not directed by Taylor. I feel likemaybe she shouldn’t direct every single music video herself maybe every other one get a director in. Just to change things up.

KyraB

The disrespect of Midnights and saying it didn’t deserve to win album of the year always irks me. The main argument I hear from people is they feel it is not even close to her best album. First of all you’re missing out on the genius that is Midnights and secondly she was not competing against her own body of work for that award. I listened to all the album of the year nominees and they all deserved to be nominated but from start to finish Midnights was definitely the overall best album. All the other nominees had some great highs but also some really low lows that Midnights didn’t suffer from in my opinion.

ArtsyPutsy .

I think you need to refathom babe mv. Because taylor also starred in that mv. It’s been a while since I saw it. But I’m pretty sure she was also being the other woman in that mv or some at least some sort of cheating went on. So maybe she was first cheated on by jake??? Oh and pretty sure she have red hair in that one too 🤔

Jaana

Love the new set up! 😍

Karen Valentino

I love how Taylor likes to create ambiguity in her lyrics and visuals. You can really go either way on the wedding rings and just when her love interest became married. So great!

Karen Valentino

Setup 🤩 Chairs 🤩 Dresses 🤩 Immaculate fathoming of Wildest Dreams 🤩 My excitement over what’s to come 🥳

P D

Omg the movie being set in 1950 and as we know on Midnights she says “That 1950’s shit they want from me” 👀

Brandon N

I LOVE the lavender haze music video so much omg

Farah

I want Bonny’s hair care routine 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

Ethan Nguyen

WE NEEED ULTRAVIOLENCE REACTIONS

ellen.h

New drinking game: take a shot every time Emily says 'landscape'

Elvia Kristoffersen

You are soo beautiful girlies ❤ Midnights is not her best work in my opinion. Aleksander Skarsgaard is tall and handsome as hell. The mv is so beautiful. Thanks Bon andre Em.

angel (plnkblue)

Even when she wasn’t directing them in the past, I’m pretty sure she talked about being the one to come up with the ideas and concepts and visuals. ME! is a great example of this; it was directed by someone else, but Miss Americana shows her talking to Brendon about all of her ideas for the video, which we know hadn’t been shot yet bc she preemptively thanks him for being down to do such an elaborate video. I think the directing only allows her to have more explicit control over her placements and actions, things like cinematography/staging/lighting, and how many takes she wants to do, but for a long while, it has still always been Taylor herself as the driving creative force behind her music videos.

Kara Norton

the cutoff billboard of their faces is giving OG 1989 cover...

Enzo Reis

21:21 the scene where she's laying on bed and he just lefts her out is so TTPD coded.

Jack B

Something else I noticed is that in the final shot of the video, the billboard of ‘Marjorie’s face is cut off identically to Taylor’s face on the original 1989 cover!

Michaela

I think she chose to set the music video in Africa with all the wild animals because it perfectly ties into that 'wild' theme of the 'wildest dreams'. And it's like those moments when they were together are the 'wildest dream' because it was all set within that setting

Izzzy Federgreen

just want to say i am officially treating the two of you like TS in the way that I am trying to fathom what the green nails means now that you dont have eras tour nails...........

Izzzy Federgreen

i always thought she was elizabeth taylor in this video, i did not fathom marjorie!

Noa

The choice that the movie take place at the 1950 actually make sense with Taylor's style through 1989 era

Vika katsimon

This comment is not relevant to to music video but somewhat relevant to the 1989 album. If you look at the cover image 1989 and the font it was written in it creates like a binary code 1000 above and 1101 below. And 10001101 converts to "?" symbol. I don't know if you've seen this theory or if it's even real. But it's definitely interesting. https://www.rapidtables.com/convert/number/binary-to-ascii.html You can check for yourself.

I completely agree. I listened to all the nominees before the Grammys and Midnights is definitely the absolute best album in my opinion. I wasn’t expecting the win but I’m glad she got it.

megan x

i feel like recently (since folklore) she’s been experimenting with her own imagination and fantasy worlds that she creates which she then adds into her music videos, since she’s been emphasising it a lot on the tour in the intro to betty. i do think with ttpd we will get music videos based on her real life events but told in a story like way, i feel like now she feels that she has to tell her own real life story instead of creating fictional ones. i love how her brain works and just the things she creates she’s insane

Geneva

BONNY WHERE DID YOU GET THAT DRESS

Emzies

I love all the things you do, and Eras tour reactions to surprise songs are fine, but I am so very excited to make the move back to the fathomings and the breakdowns!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Emzies

Scott Eastwood played an actor named Robert Kingsley, a nod to Swift’s grandfather Robert and her dad, whose middle name is Kingsley.

Juliana Martinez

you've really said something there and now I am certain that wildest simply cannot be about harry styles LMAO

Freya 🫶🏻

I can already tell how much all of us are going to LOVE the new space!! So much more natural light as well, it’s truly superior, thank you for uploading, sending both of you so much love 💗

hauntedwillow27

omg a lot of connection to white horse too - the “rear view mirror disappearing now…” “i’m not your princess, this ain’t our fairytale” “THIS AINT HOLLYWOOD” no it’s actually a lot… very interesting

chatsandreacts

This is my natural hair so thank you 💓 it’s taken me a while to get what works down but I use a leave in conditioner and then I brush it, then put in LOTS of mousse, comb through with fingers and then gently scrunch the curls up. Then I let it dry 💛 hope that helps!

Lauren Thomas

I’m sure this means nothing, but the clapboard saying it was 8/2/1950 reminded me of Taylor having her fingers next to the 8 and the 2 of the clock in her coffee in the Karma music video. 🤷🏼‍♀️🤷🏼‍♀️🤷🏼‍♀️

marissa

Loving the new space besties!! 💖 the natural light, plants, chairs! Bonny may have to get some matching ones now 😆 love these music video fathomings, there’s so much I realize I miss! I too am also team landscape and cinematography

Courtney A

I love the new set up! Y’all have done a fantastic job on all the filming spaces! 💚

Pauli

Is it just me or does the part of this music video at 20:05 (second verse) kinda look like the first half of the California King Bed music video from Rihanna? I don't even know... is there any chance of there being a connection between these two videos? 🙈

Bianka Ozsvath

are we getting Kacey’s new album reaction / breakdown? ❤️🙏🏻

Pippa

My brother is traumatised by wildest dreams, because I would listen to it every day of us being 15/16 years old, and he would wake up to this song every day. He remembers the lyrics still x

Hannah S

I hope it doesn’t sound mean, but this just makes me want new music videos that Taylor doesn’t direct herself. Her vision and story telling is brilliant and she is capable of really artful shots, but I just think some of these expansive music videos like Blank Space and Out of the Woods and Wildest Dreams require such big scope and an outside vision. Obviously she could still bring the story and ideas to the director but it just seems hard to put together something of this scale if that’s not like your full time thing - being a director and mastering that craft day in and out.

Leney

umm... just fathomed that on the cover of TTPD, she is wearing two rings on the fingers she uses for peace sign/ #2 thing she's keeps doing!!!!

Grace Tapulgo

The ending also makes me think of the end of white horse where she says “there in my rear view mirror disappearing now and it’s too late for you and your white horse to catch me now”.

skizzo

For me the Fearless vaults are the best (I know unpopular opinion), but im still obsessed with Slut. That one is so underrated

Robert Ellis

Will we see reactions to the extra songs on the eras tour movie from streaming?!

Nadia Thew

this is soooo random and funny but it still doesn’t feel right with Bonny on the left and Em on the right after ALL this time hahaha. I was just re-watching old vids, as one does (been around since day 1 lol), and thinking to myself “this way just feels right” - think it’s just cause it’s the first set up I saw from y’all years ago🤣🤣🤣

Katherine McClintic

not the august fathoming with an august date starting the music video!!!

Sarah

I don't think that sounds mean, that makes a lot of sense! Always good to work with people who are masters of their craft, that way you continue to learn! I'm sure Taylor would agree, she seems to really value collaborating with people. I hope she does work with other directors in future for her music videos!

Farah

Omg thank you so much bon you mean the world to me I’m still screaming oh my god this day can’t get better 🤍🤍🤍🤍😭😭😭😭😭 ( sorry I’m having a mental breakdown BONNY REBECCA just noticed that I exist )

Jackson Younce

I would love to see a Billie Eilish Fathom/Reaction she has such deep meetings behind her lyrics that I think you all would appreciate.

Ramon❀°。

no bc Im happy she's having sort of a slow down i'm still picking apart Speak Now TV !!

Generi Talens

the new setup is fab girlies!!!! <3333

Dswiftie

Emily your man is cute!!

Dswiftie

Love the new set up. It looks so comfortable.

Dswiftie

I love wildest dreams song and video. She looks so gorgeous with the dark hair. Her dressing this way just fits her. I'm glad you guys are back. My life isn't whole without the two of you talking about Taylor Swift in it. Bonnie you just gave me a whole new fathoming on this video. I love you guys.

RL

I think this landscape specifically makes sense for Wildest Dreams, because of all the ‘Wild’ animals that they’re able to film around. It complements the ‘Dream’ part of it being in love on a movie set.

Steven Hanley

Really hanging out for Emily to be sprouting the "No Capes" line

Marissa

I’m so obsessed with Kacey Musgraves’ new album, I’m so happy you will be reacting to it 🥺 Also obsessed with the new set-up and the Wildest Dreams video. No idea Marjorie was mentioned in there 💛

Linds K

Not sure if anyone else commented this already, so many comments! But I always interpreted that transition to being on set as her showing us none of what we saw “on location” was actually real, and that in reality they were on a set the whole time and it was just her fantasy. I thought this because as we’re zooming out to realize it’s a set she’s literally saying “even if it’s just pretend”, and then we see a giraffe walking in the background which wouldn’t ever actually happen and it’s almost like her mirage of this fantasy is slowly fading away to reality.

Lucero Castillo

I really hoped she would do a music video for is it over now? And she would film it with Eastwood again and it would be a continuation but honestly I’m thinking we didn’t getting a 1989 music video because of the Joe breakup :(

Laurie Letendre

YES!!! I'm thinking the exact same thing

Joe Weaver

Minneapolis is the John Mayer speech & when she sings Dear John. Only SS re-fathoming away from that one. I don't remember what happened in Pittsburgh. Curious to go back there again. It's crazy that some of these shows were quite awhile ago now so it's actually pretty exciting to go back to June 2023... I always love these music video breakdowns cause I seriously do not remember the details of these videos! Yeah I could tell you Wildest Dreams is the throwback movie one in Africa with the animals & dark haired Taylor but that's it. So it's great to fathom along with you

Joe Weaver

I do remember Pittsburgh now. It was Father's Day weekend (in the US) and at the other end of Pennsylvania. She sings seven. And some other songs I don't recall. 😂

Eliza

Guys love the fathoming but I have to add I really think the intention with the on set/not on set at the end of the MV is to show that they never really were in africa. The reality is that they were always in an indoors set like the end. I.e., taylor imagined the whole relationship as something so grand but reality wasn't really like that. U guys have a good point with your opinions and I really think it could go both ways but just thought i'd add that!! :)

Andrea

The dark hair, the sets, Scott, the outfit, the YELLOW DRESS! It’s my favorite TS music video too and I fear it’ll be very hard to surpass it

Brandi Brock

You both look extraordinary in yellow! *swoon*

Mir

Emily you are fucking me up with the whole landscape/ cinematography conversation. I had made a comment on the discord about this before BUT the director of the Revenant Alejandro Iñarritu went on the Smartless podcast (maybe last year) and talked about how he’s been working WITH THE NATIONAL and praised the Dessner brothers for their work in a recent project they did together. And just knowing the tightness of Taylor and Aaron and her interest in film, I’m just do fucked up at the idea that they’ve met and spoken about film because he’s just the most offensive director of our time idk what you want me to saaaayyyyy

Nan

So, if no one has yet mentioned this - the speculation that Wildest Dreams was about a brief onset fling TS may have had with AS, is very much supported by the corresponding location backdrops of the video and film. The film, "The Giver," began filming in 2013 in Cape Town and Johannesburg. We can assume the backdrop of the WD video is Africa - and on a movie set. Coincidence? I think not! ;)

alex

This was one of my most anticipated videos in the 1989 TV era.. so I saved it for last. Will be watching this while eating dinner and enjoying some me time! The best kind of evening 🥹🥹

F1Swiftie

And Harry certainly thinks this song about Harry "that nice dress in my wildest dreams..."

Hanna Kulla

you said „bye“ the way taylor says „nice“ in bejeweled😂

Marla April

Does Emily realize how much she interrupts and speaks over Bonnie 😅 I know she’s excited but… 😓

Katie LaFave

you guys should rank her music videos!!!

Breejmc

Love the supportive boyfriend pop in 💛 love you girlies

Kiki

That was also my theory 😅 by now I'm guessing an announcement will either come during the Toronto shows or on december 13th 🤡

Brandon

Yes rank her music videos!!!

Breezy Bumbles

The African landscape in this video reminds me of the Meryl Streep/Robert Redford movie, Out Of Africa. It’s beautiful!
