THE MAX MARTIN MEDLEY?! Sweden has been SO BLESSED!!

We really had a CHAT in this one, after we react we talk a bit about ole Travie + a bit of a personal Q&A about our relationship with listening to Taylor's albums! We hope you enjoy 🫶

Comments

Solo

Yay 😁

Cla

JUST AT THE RIGHT MOMENT

Solo

Madrid stadium is 81,000 ISH capacity coming up after Lisbon

Becky Tucker

Perfect… it’s 12:30 am here and I can’t sleep!!!!

Nathalie Richter

Gotta love receiving this notification IMMEDIATELY as my flight landed. Now I know what to watch in my Uber! So frickin pumped to see your max Martin medley thoughts

Elvira✨

I was there 😭😭 my first ever Taylor concert. It was so so good I really had the best time!!

Becky Tucker

Geez I love you both so much 💜

Kirsijez

Your reactions make my day 🫶🏻

Adriana

It’s 60000 in Friends ☺️

Katie LaFave

love knowing that message in a bottle was the 1st song her & max wrote together!!!

Mike Roach

I was there last night and when she said we were getting a medley, I (and everyone else) was absolutely buzzing and yet still not properly prepared for the gift we were about to receive. This woman is just a blessing to us all. And I was immediately thinking of you two watching and wanting to see your reaction as the next blessing on top! ♥️

Katie LaFave

message in a bottle is sooooo underrated!!! it is such a bop

Sofia F

The biggest venue in Sweden can fit 75k people but it's not in Stockholm, but in the second biggest city Gothenburg. Hopefully for the next tour she will come there in june/july since it's a completely open stadium, the problem is that the sun barely sets in the summer here so it would be light outside the whole concert

Susan

Just woke up, perfect and thanks. Slow morning w/public holiday in Denmark with B&E🩷🩷🩷

Katie LaFave

i guessed on the SwiftAlert app that she would play how did it end on the piano!!!

kienan

I had the hugest smile on my face watching the livestream just thinking of how you two would be going wild over even the acknowledgment of Max let alone the medley!!!! Toooooo iconic of her. Such interesting information to get about message in a bottle being the first song they ever did together!!!!!

Katie LaFave

omg bonny i loveeee ur mug!!!

heather

sweden really won!!

Christine Violet

The evermore dresses don’t have the long sleeves, which she needs for my tears ricochet… so they would have to be altered or she would maybe have to wear the cape that is for willow earlier in the set?

Katie LaFave

pretty sure paris had to be in an area because of the olympics

mariola niebrzydowska

can't wait to watch ur video and fathom some things along with u after work!! oh, and thank you for existing!!

S ✨

Friends arena is actually a stadium 😊

krissy

I think she only wore the blue folklore dress cause it was the 89th show…and same with the speak now dress?

Krystal

another podcast like episode just before breakfast for me YAYYYYYYYYY

Ang ⋆｡°✩

i honestly think she was wearing the blue speak now / folklore dressed because they match the swedish flag! she’s been known to match her outfits to different countries flag, especially with the 1989 set (the blue and yellow matched the swedish flag as well, she did this set both ways around while in sweden).

krissy

Also do we think evermore is more Matty coded aka more personal and harder to discuss? I need refathomings ! Lol

Anna

This was my 2nd show 💙 I was FRONT ROW near diamond! Saw miss Swift with my eyeballs so close, she looked at me like 5 times I swear and pointed at me and waved! And she is the most gorgeous human being! 😭💙

Rebecca

Emily predicting How Did It End!

Sab.

She did message in a bottle in Seattle as well, I love that song sm 😭❤️

Katie LaFave

i think she's not wearing the evermore dresses because they don't have a cape thing for when she does the "just not home" bit in my tears ricochet

Floran

Taylor is not wearing the evermore dresses, cause those don’t work with the August choreography when she spins around like a little fairy 🫶😂

Katie LaFave

she's been wearing the blue and yellow outfits to represent the sweden flag

Tim Strandell

Swede from the show yesterday, Friends Arena is actually a stadium with a retractable roof

Candice Plendl

I haven’t finished the video yet, but she def did Message in the Bottle for Seattle N2!

Sofia Starup Åberg

blue and yellow are swedens colors that's why she's been wearing them this weekend 💙💛

angel (plnkblue)

The blue dresses are probably for the flags of the countries lol, so many countries have blue in their flags and I think she really likes to celebrate the countries/places she's never performed in before.

Dianne Janssen

She’s probably been wearing all the blue because she’s in Sweden 🇸🇪 so the blue/yellow combinations for 1989 are actually the colors of the flag. And it’s probably a little hint at 1989 which was for the most part written with Max Martin

Katie LaFave

taylor actually has done message in a bottle once before in seattle

Brianna Rodriguez

Needed this girl time right now so thank you 🫶🏼

Ebba

Yes!!!! Max and Johan is definitely an export we are proud of, they have been honored at the polar music price more than once 🫶🏼 Also Patrik Berger who worked on Slut and I Look In Peoples Windows is also Swedish 😍 He works a lot with Jack!

Jessie

Yep, she's doing my top 5's!!! Guilty as Sin, Peter, How Did It End and when she does Fresh Out the Slammer on piano i will DIE!!!

P.R. Dayvonne

I think she's not wearing the evermore dresses cuz she needs big long sleeves for her august choreo and the evermore ones are sleeveless I think lol

mari

I want an eras documentary bc I love adding random people to the TSCU

Joe Weaver

I remember when these used to be like 25 minutes long. 😂 little chatty chatters in the Australian morning! Fun little fact, the next 3 cities (Lisbon, Madrid & Lyon) all only have 2 nights of concerts. We haven't had that since last June & July when she did only 2 shows in Detroit, Pittsburgh, Minneapolis, Cincinnati, Kansas City, Denver, Seattle & Santa Clara.

Jenna Bolmgren

I got that same sweatshirt and isn’t the neck super tight?? I cut it off/distressed it and I’m gonna attempt to tie dye it the intro flag/petal colors 🤞🫶

nicole

Oh nooo I need the blue Speak Now dress to stay! It’s my absolute favourite, so sparkly and such a gorgeous shade. I think it matches with the purples of Speak Now so beautifully. It’s the Folklore blue dress that is just a bit bizarre. I guess Wendy does wear a blue dress though in Peter Pan…

Annika 📍Melb, AU

I’m only a few mins in so you probably talked about this - but this confirms that Max and Taylor are on good terms. He likely just didn’t want to produce re-recordings because it’s not creatively challenging and fun for him to redo previous work! 👏

Solo

F us filter lol

Jeremiah Bell

SO HAPPY THAT THEY’RE GOOD 😭 praying for max on more future work

Sarah Sandell

YES Max Martin is like a royalty of pop here🇸🇪 & the blue dresses is probably because of the colors in the flag and the 1989 outfit was also blue & yellow🥰 She also did blue & yellow lights on the bracelets for Shake it off. Can’t belieeeeve I got to see this with my on eyes, it was the best night of my life🥹❤️

Miss T

I think she’s not wearing the Evermore dresses because of swish-ability (or lack there of) of the sleeves for the sleeve-ography in the folklore songs.

Jessica

I’m assuming she retired the evermore dresses because they don’t have the same flowy feel like the folklore dresses have. Could u imagine her performing August in an evermore dress?? I just don’t feel like it would work 😅

elli

I REALLY NEED YOU GUYS TO UNDERSTAND: she’s wearing yellow and blue because it’s the colors of SWEDEN! 🇸🇪 it’s such a nice gesture! On Friday, when I saw she had a blue dress for speak now and yellow for folklore, I just KNEW she would do yellow and blue for 1989 too, and I’m so happy she brought it back but reversed it for last night. She knows how to charm an audience! Also, for Saturday, the 1989 colors were very similar to the outfit she wore when she won a Grammy for it so it was nice of her to wear that for her 89th show!

Elvira✨

I’m a folklore/evermore/red girlie but after going to this show (which was the first time for me!! with minimum spoilers) I really realized that I NEED to become a rep girlie as well because I FATHOMED rep. It was so iconic

Aanya 💗

we love travis 🥰🥰😍😍❤️💗

Nick S

'Message In A Bottle' was performed in Seattle. That medley was incredible though. Grateful for your contributions Max!

Annika 📍Melb, AU

Maybe there will be a Max Martin Rep Vault track!!! Help!

angel (plnkblue)

She actually did play Message In A Bottle all the way back in 2023 on July 23rd; I remember that because I had to watch the video from the secret song discord channel right after coming out of a different artist's concert fsdfsdfds

Sofia

Yes! Sweden see Max Martin as one of our greatest exports! We think the same about for example Tove Lo, Zara Larson and a lot of other big Swedish artists🫶

Jack

So glad we got a max acknowledgment I wondered if they ended on bad terms

kienan

I got Message in a Bottle in full (performed for the first time ever) at Seattle N2 and it was so iconic but a Max medley might just top that honestly

Christine Violet

I agree with Bonny about the song writing credits completely! I was trying to word it in good way and then you said it perfectly! I have always thought that the idea of them sitting down and writing songs together didn’t quite sit well in my gut. My thought is that he would often be fiddling around on the piano, and in an attempt to bond with Joe she asked to use those melodies in her songs. But I wouldn’t be surprised at all if that is the extent of their collaborations.

Dianne Janssen

She’s waiting for me to play the way I loved you 😂

Amanda Saul

I feel like she could also play So High School as a surprise song since she only does a snippet during the set?

Marysol Johnson

I was there for Message in a Bottle in Seattle N2!!

Alexis

Besties, the blue is to reference the Swedish flag. 🇸🇪 Also, for 1989 it was blue and yellow. Not green and yellow. Also to reference the flag.

Josh

i prayyy this could hint that max will b on rep tv

Brittany Diamond

The cue is her getting up from the piano! You can really tell when Aaron popped up one night and he had to walk all the way back to the lift. She absolutely did not move until he was gone, then she stood up and went to the dive. She also never really lingers from the piano to the dive, most likely because once she stands she only has so much time. That's the best I've been able to tell, anyway.

Hannah

I was at Stockholm n1 and they said it was around 65000. The capacity noted online (I think for Paris as well) is specifically seats, it doesn’t take the floor into account. This is otherwise Sweden’s national football stadium

Katie LaFave

travis was also asked in another interview is top 3 taylor songs and he said: 1. blank space 2. the alchemy 3. so high school more proof that the alchemy is about him! i also just love how much he loves blank space. like when he talked about it in his wall street journal interview!

Hannah

Loves it’s blue and yellow, not green 🇸🇪

Hannah

Also it’s not like the man is not busy. Also productive like it’s an art 😅

Danny

The reason why she hasn’t brought the evermore dresses is bc the folklore and new dresses have a special harness that attaches to the folklore cabin roof during the opening of folklore. The evermore dresses never had the harness feature so it’s incompatible with the folklore cabin. But knowing Taylor she’ll probably get them altered and bring them back later on.

Katie LaFave

omg Em's long brown hair in that lover clip! absolutely loveeee

Gordon Werner

“King of My Heart” live in the Rep tour is amazing … I think I like it better than the album version … I think my favorite track on Rep has to be “So It Goes”

Gordon Werner

Your reaction to “All To Well 10” was fantastic ツ

Ally ❤️

Max Martin Medley supremacy!!!

Abby

I think she was wearing all the blue and yellow for the swedish flag!!

Theres Borg

Max Martin is my biggest hero for a swedish music lover like me. I have admire him since 1996 when he started work with backstreet boys. His real name is Martin Sandberg (really normal swedish name) and grew up close to me. And for answer your question. No not everyone in Sweden knows him, but many. But Swedes are very humble and shy at first as persons (just like Max Martin 😇😂) so We dont want to brag . But as for a country with only 10 million people its pretto god what We have acomplished. Please do a Max Martin reaction 😍🙏🏼😀

Abby

also Im pretty sure she was starting earlier as there is a stricter kerfew/time when they need the stadium to be quiet by

Jami Marie

I will take your guys 1hour+ breakdown of a song over a 2min TikTok any day!! They could never replace what you guys do, so please take your time with making those because they truly are the best <3

Christina

Hey girls!! She actually DID play Message in a Bottle for the first time at my show - Seattle n2 :) But obviously, Max wasn't there. But that was the only other time!

Alice Mense

I can honestly say, when it comes to videos from you guys, the longer the video the better ^^ I just enjoy seeing you and hearing your fathomings and thoughts and even after 2 hours I almost feel really sad when the video ends 😅

Kamis

it’s the first time i guessed a secret song - iconic moment in history

Hannah

Sweden is not humid but sadly the stadium roof is closed due to safety reasons. The terror threat is put to a 4 out of 5 atm. Otherwise it would have been light all the way through the set this time of the year.

Malin Wallin

It's funny that what I see as our massive national arena is concidered small for other countries, haha! Music is Swedens thing, Max and Shellback are national icons. Our small country is somehow the third biggest exporter of pop in the world (only after USA and UK) and largest in the world per capita! It's insane when thiking about it really

Jessie

I will never forget the day Speak Now came out; I was working as an Au Pair in New York and the day it came out she did a performance for Good Morning America in the city and I remember just wishing I could get on a train and go SO DESPERATELY!!! Then I bought the album and bonded with it in New York for a few months, so special!

Hannah

And yes we are deeply proud of our brilliant exports like Max, Avicii, ABBA, Zara Larsson. Like every Swede knows Max Martin by his artist name (real name Martin Sandberg) but not what he looks like. I mentioned to my friend that ‘Max’ sat next to us in the restaurant for 2 hours a few weeks ago and she had no idea 😅

angel (plnkblue)

No, I think people are overanalyzing the little speech she gives at the piano lol. She always starts off mentioning Folklore because she opens the set with two Folklore songs, but then oh! Suddenly she’s at the piano about to sing an Evermore song. Not everybody has seen the show through a grainy livestream week after week, so this speech serves as a contextual transition between the eras to establish that rather than having two separate unique segments for Folklore and Evermore, she’s combined them. That’s why every speech is “I’m so proud of Folklore, but also Evermore,” because Folklore > Evermore is literally how the set plays out. Evermore isn’t difficult for her to talk about, it just has no need to be mentioned apart from her giving context as to why songs from two different albums are being combined into one set when she previously had said the show will go through “one era at a time.” And the speech is short because in terms of the greater setlist, it’s been swapped with ATW10; now ATW10 gets the longer sprawling speech about the tour, and Champ Probs just gets its little intro bit.

Amanda P

went to Paris & learned that she would’ve done the stadium but it’s occupied prepping for the Olympics! 🫶🏼

Jen B

I've been so excited to see your reaction. As soon as I saw these live, I thought oh man, Em's gonna love love love these surprise songs!! P.S. I think the blue dress yesterday was because it was the 89th show?

Katie K

I think she wore the blue speak now and folklore dresses this weekend for the Swedish flag which is blue and yellow. The blue and yellow outfit for 1989 was flipped around from night 1 as well so she clearly does have a full set of each colour for those. It’s so fun!

Brooke W.

Girliessss no need to rush and stress yourselves over getting videos out ASAP. Just take your time. I’m so happy that I found y’all’s content. My family/friends get so annoyed with me talking about Taylor Swift, so to watch and listen to y’all’s reactions and conversations has made my family/friends and myself so much happier! So thank you! Hahah!

Léa

Paris was an arena because of the Olympics games 🥲our stadiums were not available for concerts in 2024

tbeckett

As someone who doesn’t have TikTok, I appreciate long form videos especially ones on this Patreon.

Willow Knightly

Was thinking today about how she was recording this album (seems like mostly the Aaron songs) for maybe a year before the Matty thing, so I was trying to picture the album that was originally intended. Very introspective on her life (The Bolter, Thank You Aimee, I hate it here), the music industry (cassandra, who’s afraid, Clara bow) and then some Joe (so long london, how did it end). Even a few songs that seem to be Matty coded could have been written before they got together in ‘23 [Peter, Chloe and the gang 😝…) as they seems to be about regret of the relationship not having happened. Just interesting to think that unlike Reputation we did end up getting the songs that were superseded by new events in her life, just mostly as the Anthology

Amanda P

Not Emily predicting how did it end?!?! That was insane!!

Lindsey Rinehart

I had Message In A Bottle at my show! Seattle, Night 2. ❤️

Zephyrz

how did emily think of How did it end? minutes before she played it you are totally in sync now

Amanda P

I totally agree with your Jack commentary yesterday but I would love a sprinkle of Max Martin on a new song or two 🥲 just the detailed storytelling x girly pop beat combo is such a Tay classic 🫶🏼

Margarida

It’s my show next!!!!! I cannot believe it, Lisbon is one hour earlier btw everyone

Bridget Schulz

And also need the arm-y things for ‘I can go anywhere just not home!’

Julia Lesmister

I love that she wrote Travis the kind of song that he would like (So High School). He loves the bops so she wrote him a bop. So cute.

Soraia Ferreira

So sad I missed New Romantics and how did it end by 1 show 😭😭 but really excited for Lisbon 1!!! Hope she has something special for us since she never came to Portugal before 🤞🏼

Jentallygirl

My Swiftie journey is spotty and comical (to me, at least lol)… I’m 48 so my relationship with technology and social media has been SLOW, haha… I remember really loving 1989 radio hits first (but knowing nothing about Taylor herself)… OOTW, Wildest Dreams, and Blank Space specifically. Probably Shake it Off too, lol. 😉 Then in Nov 2019 I stumbled upon Lover, and began binging her entire earlier discography. I became obsessed with her songwriting! But I was at home all the time and was only listening to old Taylor (no current radio), and was also not active on SM, so I literally had NO idea in real time when Folklore and Evermore came out! 😜 Fearless TV either, hahaha… but my love of Taylor led me to start playing guitar 🎸 (learning *only* Taylor songs via online tutorial videos!), which led me to CHATS & REACTS on YouTube… which was how I *finally* learned about 🩶, 🧡 & 💛! Ha, much to catch up on… 🤣 RED TV was my very first experience (just by sheer luck, lol 🍀 ) of participating in an album release in *real time*… watching her performance of All Too Well 10 on SNL (and feeling like an educated Swiftie who could appreciate the meaning of that moment) was absolutely THRILLING!! ❤️😻 After that, being a part of YOUR community and experiencing the rollout for Midnights (the “Mayhem” was… complete MAYHEM! 😂) was such incredible fun. I remember waiting with baited breath 🤣 for your video reaction from Paris, lol... 💙 I only know one Swiftie in my real life, but she lives 10 hours away. Your videos have taught me SO much about Taylor and her discography, and honestly made the experience sooo FUN… and made loving her music feel like something that actually IS an experience… and a community! Because of that, and also my newfound love of playing guitar, I can honestly say discovering Taylor (and this community) has literally changed my life, and enriched it SOOO much during these past 4.5 years (the hardest years of my life, actually). THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH for being part of my Swiftie journey!! 🫶😻 💚💛💜❤️🩵🖤🩷🩶🧡💙🤍

elli

Yes Emily, us Swedes are VERY proud of Max Martin, at least those who knows music! He’s very private though and doesn’t really do interviews, I think I’ve seen or heard like two or three and I’ve known about him since the late 00’s. But us swedes are very proud of our musical exports in general and every time there’s a documentary about it, it’s heavily emphasized what an impact max has had, he’s a true legend!

Alice Woodfield

betsies i think the reason shes wearing the blue a lot in sweden is the colour of the Swedish flag!! but again i agree they served their purpose for 1989 night lol

Juliette

France should have been the stadium but its not available because of the olympics preparations I just love how every show feels so special especially during this international tour, I was at Paris n2 and I absolutely loved and felt like my surprise songs were so perfect !! and i feel like everyone has felt very lucky and happy with their nights

Emma Leech

I can understand you looking at tiktok and worrying but honestly I love the long form videos so much. My favourites to go back and watch are the long reaction videos. I just love the depth you go into. Everyone here feels the same I'm sure. It's so interesting how the experience of the albums has changed for you. I was like Emily the teenager listening to Taylor by myself in my room absorbing the greatness but my relationship with the albums has changed so much being part of this community makes it feel like we are listening together ❤️

Margarida

Max worked on Ariana’s new album

Rafael Splinter

Guys, this bothered me so much about this chat. She did in fact play Message in a Bottle in its entirety in Seattle. Don’t you guys have a notebook specifically for this?? 😂😂😂.

Hillary Smith

Totally agree! I also wondered if it was a protective move legally if she hadn’t credited him and he tried to claim rights later?!? 🤷🏻‍♀️

Emma Larsson

Can't believe I was there to witness this😭 I'm actually so unwell

Hillary Smith

Really loved hearing your thoughts on the Travis interview clip. I think what really comes across is that he has been media trained and does so many interviews regularly he is incredibly comfortable answering questions thoughtfully while maintaining boundaries. I think he and Taylor both have a similar style in interviews both coming across as genuinely engaged and wanting to be present. AND the way he speaks about her makes me think they must have a joint media strategy or agreement and it conveys unity. Love to see it ❤️

mars 🎀

hahah i love your appreciation for sweden! sweden is like THE country in the scandinavia, bc everything happens there 😭 coming from someone who’s from finland, i can’t even count the times i’ve traveled to sweden just for a concert (no one ever comes to finland 💔)

Paula

I think she’s going on at 7 in Scotland! Something to do with noise curfew for the venue x

Lynny Smith

Not sure if anyone has already mentioned this, but I think she isn’t wearing the evermore dress because she needs the sleeves for my tears ricochet how she waves it around and for August - she doesn’t have the sleeves for evermore so wouldn’t be as ✨whimsical✨ - I understand your pain though Em!! I love the evermore dresses too 😭

mars 🎀

btw, the friends arena is the biggest arena in stockholm! even tho it’s not stadium-big, i feel blessed that she came here nonetheless!

jasmine 🇸🇪🌷

i’m so happy she gave us such superior songs 🥹😭😭 i was there the first night & feel so blessed to have gotten i think he knows x gorgeous & peter 😭😭😭 but i’m just so happy she’s been loving stockholm as much as she has and feel so happy for everyone that got the chance to attend 🥹🥰🫶🏼🫶🏼

Clive

I think we can all agree that we like the time the girls put into these videos. I think we are all prepared to wait for the quality. p.s. I think the TTPD videos are best they have ever made, and probably the best TTPD reactions on the Internet.

jasmine 🇸🇪🌷

YESSS EM we are so incredibly proud of Max Martin!! Music really is our biggest export & we have so many amazing artists, bands & producers etc but also just the fact that spotify is a swedish company says a lot

Tess7

I love your long videos! I still listen to new albums as they drop at midnight. That way I can use headphones and look at lyrics - I love staying up for midnight releases because no one is going to call or come over at that time lol I used to go buy the cd at midnight, then listen in my car. I love watching your first reactions. You two absolutely make a new TS album more exciting. It’s because you are genuine fans. Your excitement is real. Don’t worry about tik tok and getting something up within minutes- no one else touches Chats & Reacts! The way you do things is perfect and we appreciate that you put so much into your videos. I love the chats after secret songs and I can’t wait to see what Taylor has in store for us 😀

Meg Hollingworth

the blue outfits from the other day were because it was the 89th show 🩵

Renee

No hate to other reaction videos, but there’s just no one else like the two of you! I tried watching a few quick reactions with TTPD and just stopped until I saw your reactions. In the time waiting I just had my own time with the album.

elli

Ok a third comment because apparently I wasn’t finished! I’m such a huge fan of Max so I have a lot to say (and also so happy I decided to buy tickets for the Sunday show!). Shellback was kind of an intern of Max’s in the 00’s, yk, getting coffee and things like that lol. The first song he ever worked on was actually So What! by Pink. It is possible he was there in the studio when Taylor went to record with Max and maybe they vibed or something. That’s actually how Style became Taylor’s song, Ali Payami was working on it in the studio and Taylor heard it, told Max she really liked it and then they all worked on it together. Max’s philosophy is heavy on the team effort so I’m sure his studio is always filled with people working and collaborating on things. Max does have a studio in LA I think but my theory is that he just didn’t think it was inspiring enough to work on their old songs and would rather focus on new stuff. And it’s not like he’s losing any money since he has writing credits. Also scheduling issues can be a factor, but it’s hard to know since he’s so private haha. I never believed there was any beef between them so hearing her talk about him live yesterday was so nice lol. Anyways, could talk about Max for ages, but I’ll stop now. If you have any questions I’d be happy to try and answer them haha.

elli

Omg it would be so much fun if they did a reaction to a Max Martins biggest hits video, THERE ARE SO MANY!

Ana 🌸

I don’t have TikTok , I love long form content! Maybe it’s the millennial in me 😂 thanks for the video girls ❤️❤️❤️

Connie Forrest

So excited you’re going to some shows in London, so will I! Will you be doing a London meet-up? ☺️

imogen

I don’t know about Sweden but taylor played in an arena in Paris because the stadiums weren’t available because of the olympics!! Also besties literally never worry about how long your fathomings and breakdowns take because I make it my mission to avoid other people breaking them down because I know that at some point we’ll have your breakdown and that’s the only thing I wanna watch. Like I can’t watch a 2 minute video of a song breakdown and understand the song?? Noooo taylor and her genius ness demands wayyyy longer 😂. Also, I too feel like my experience of albums has changed with having your channel!! Before I would listen on my own very isolated but now I wait for your reactions so I can share that experience and it is so fun!! I then go listen on my own and have a full experience with it!

Bobhog

I'm pretty sure we don't have a stadium in Sweden.....

Laura Gallan

“..evermore as well” 👀 BOMBASTIC SIDE EYE

Karolina

Aaron is of Polish descent, if she does a fucking Aaron Dessner medley in Poland I will COLLAPSE

Annika 📍Melb, AU

Spoiler alert - we love your long form content! I wanted all three hours of your eras Paris reaction 😂

Anna K

I LOVE your long videos!! Please never stop! The banter and the bouncing ideas off of each other just elevates the quality so much that any wait is forgotten. I rewatch them all the time! They’ve become like a comfy Taylor blankie for me, as I don’t personally know another fan who cares as you do. 🥰 Thank you both SO MUCH for everything you do and all the work you put in for us all. It will always be appreciated. 💕

SomDrum

I loved hearing you both talk about how your experience of taking in new albums has changed with this channel! Like Emily, I grew up on Taylor Swift and so all of my first-listen (and most subsequent listening) experiences have been solo. I think there is something magical about that, but it was only during the Midnights Era that I really fathomed the online community that has built around Taylor. Now it's wild for me to think there was a time before the internet was part of my TS experience, and joining your community during this TTPD era has made me realize how much I actually crave connection and friendship around the music. What a journey! Thank you so much for fostering this community space :)

SomDrum

Also, since we're on the Q+A vibe, I would love to hear a little bit more about what kinds of things you both do for the channel/community behind the scenes! It sounds like Bonny may be the main editor, but I know that you both do edit videos. In the same way we're all clamoring for an Eras Tour documentary, I want a Chats and Reacts behind-the-scenes! Ha!

Leigh

the person who was live-streaming saying meatballs? when taylor said swedens great export 😭😭😭😭

charrx

Really interesting hearing your thoughts on reacting to the new albums and the phases you go through. Just a suggestion I was thinking about really because of what Emily says and how she cannot access the emotions of a song without listening all the way through a song the first time. Would it be worth trying to listen to a song the whole way through without pausing it and then go into the dissecting after? So you get the time to listen, feel and experience it and then you can collect your thoughts and dissect it right after. It might take longer to film, but might give you the best of both worlds 🤍

Julia G

I could not stop thinking about you guys while I was watching this. I was dying for this reaction.

S ✨

Friends arena is a stadium

SomDrum

I'm also SO glad that you both want to prioritize the long form content. I feel like there is so much quality and thoughtfulness that goes into your analysis and breakdown, and I appreciate that it can't happen overnight. I'm completely obsessed with how long most of your YT videos are; I love having them on while I'm working on a project or relaxing to them at the end of a long day. Stay true to yourselves and don't let the tiktok pressure get to you!

S ✨

Also yes we definitely are very proud of Max Martin 😆

Oh, how fascinating. I just assumed arena meant it was an arena but it appears to be about if it has a roof or not. I guess Ullevi might be a stadium then as well?

chatsandreacts

Truly, what is with Sweden and its musicians? Like you’re home to ABBA?!!!! Insane

chatsandreacts

TEA!!! Omg the notebook only has 2024 dates in it so far and we haven’t been using the checklist 😂 we clearly need to

jasmine 🇸🇪🌷

Haha so true! I do find it insane that this tiny little nordic country are the home to so many huge musical legends 🥹

Laura Gallan

👁️👄👁️ Em how are you talking while the first How Did It End? live performance is happening. Please someone check on her. I fear she is not fathoming the greatness

Laura Gallan

She seemed to soak in the applause for longer than most post acoustic sections, which is very valid. That one should have been a 5 min standing ovashe

chel

She actually has done Message in a bottle already, just checked and it was seattle n2, paired with tied together with a smile on the piano 🫶🫶🫶

Matilda Odeen

OMG Sthlm N3! I was there, it was rare, I’ll remember it🫶❤️

Maria

She is wearing blue and yellow because of the swedish flag😇 So next up in Portugal she is probably gonna wear red and green for their flag🥰

elli

I think it’s more a translation thing, we don’t really have a word for “stadium”, unless you count “stadion” but that word is so connected to Olympiastadion in Stockholm, which is a smaller venue, and not what you would picture when you hear the English word stadium.

elli

Hahaha, I burst out laughing at that 😂

Leigh

icl i forgot it’s also the flag and thought it was just the ikea colours

Eirini

Okay, so I haven’t watched through the end yet, but GUYS come on! She wore the blue outfits on the 89th show!

Adriann Pollmann Tuya

you gotta react to found heaven by conan! max martin produced almost every song on it!

Deirdre

Did I read that Taylor Swift has trademarked Female Rage? Because what if she makes a broadway musical almost in the style of Chorus Line, a show about putting on a show, where musical actresses could be cast as her, and Max Martin could be called in to recreate a live score for the orchestra. There could be more than one troupe, like Hamilton, and after she originates the role, like Lin Manuel Miranda did, it could become a permanent show in a theater like in Vegas, Sydney, New York, and London? That is only my fathoming, but is it fathomable? Her meeting behind the scenes in Stockholm and now we know it was with Max Martin, the meeting really seemed to energize her intensely. Just fathoming.

Nele

I absolutely love long form content. There is nothing better than getting a notification of a 1h video from you! The time you take to celebrate and fathom music is exactly what I come here for 🫶 The way you do it feels more like chatting with friends rather than getting flooded with info in a 3 min clip

Lefty

I've mentioned in another comment that I became a big fan relatively recently, about six months ago. As a long term casual fan, my knowledge of Taylor's music was Debut, Fearless, and her big singles from Red and 1989. I didn't even know Red as a thing though, I assumed 22 etc were part of 1989. However I literally didn't know Speak Now existed until six months ago when I became a big fan, and honestly I feel a bit gutted because it's my favourite album by a decent margin, so I feel like if I'd known about it way back then, it may well have made me a big fan all that time ago.

Angie Armatis

I love you ladies & the longer the better! I always get sad when I see it's almost over. Thank you for everything!💜💜

Mina Maras

Blue is for Sweden's flag......

Mina Maras

And it's not blue and green fir 1989 but nlue and yellow... again for sweden

Maria

Haha yeah well the Ikea colours are based on the flag so you’re not far off😉

Kathryn

I'd be more than happy for you to listen to the whole song while reacting, and then go back through with lyrics and breakdowns 🥰

Jade

Travis is the first boyfriend who was not only a fan first, but he has had the fathomings of who she is in her fame, by being so. He’s a Swiftie. He’s also become revered in his field to the point that he, too, is breaking records, winning awards and holding the title for being the greatest in the NFL for his position as Tight End- before he and Taylor were together. They each came into this with age, experience and merit in their careers. Travis also doesn’t have the cultural barrier that some other bf’s have had. There is a very big difference between how reserved, traditionally, the British are, compared to Americans. I do understand there’s nuance there, but it’s a point to make. Travis is everything she has needed at this level of her career. He’s secure, he’s physically boisterous and happy and protective and easy-going. He is outwardly affectionate and friendly in her spaces, both to fans and the people who work with her. He has always been that kind of person and Taylor is finally getting that in an unassuming, surprising chance that was taken and proving to be the relationship that makes her feel giddy like a schoolgirl and like someone else said, “he’s healing a heart he didn’t break”

Sophie

girlies! I love these surprise song reactions so much, I love how involved all us swifties are! what other fan base keeps this much track of a tour, down to watching live streams of every single show! it's quite incredible and I thought you'd enjoy this thought I just had...I am going to the Cardiff date in the UK on 18th June AH but I'm already looking forward to being able to watch your reactions to MY surprise songs, I can't wait to get to relive that moment (A moment I haven't even experienced yet hahaha) it's just so lovely that the both of you are able to extend some of the most joyful moments of our lives! Love you both

Natalie T

I agree the Max Martin songs are just special. There's a unique energy, a distinct sparkle! I hope they work again together too!!

MaltZi .

I was there, it was so good hearing this live.

Sarah Petty

I was thinking she isn’t wearing the evermore dresses because they wouldn’t give the same effect when she’s spinning around for august, and she needs the sleeve for my tears ricochet.

Amanda Cronin

Emily is so ranty in the morning and I love it 😂

Jade

Long form content, pleeeeeease. I don’t have TikTok, but I do understand staying with the current platforms and finding your voices in those spaces, however, I’d love more stuff available here and on YT. I’m maintaining my Patreon-ship because I love you, and at this point, I need you lol

Joan Chan

Just to share from the other side - TTPD was my first TS album I experienced after finding you guys, and it greatly enhanced my first listen to imagine what your reaction was going to be!! This community is so wonderful ❤️

Sofia F

We love the long form content!! ❤️ I am so grateful that I found your channel, you make me understand Taylor more and I love to be able to share all of it with this whole community

maya zutra

Bonny I can’t believe the bangs are new, like I can’t remember how it was before since it’s so pretty 🤌🏻

Lively_Ash

She won’t wear the evermore dresses is bc of how the folklore dresses flow for Those songs like August…Blue is to honor Sweden

Britt & Tori

I personally do not enjoy watching short form videos especially about TS songs. It just doesn't give me enough and it feels rushed. I know a lot of people don't want to sit there and watch a 3 hour video but I love it 😊

KyraB

This was such an interesting discussion. I listen fully by myself first only because the people in my life don’t consume music like that. They are “I really only listen to the radio when driving in the car people” as opposed to me who always has music playing. As I listen on repeat I really start to fathom and once we get your videos your fathoming aligns with mine or sparks me to look at a song from another angle. Keep up the excellent work and I know it’s been said all through these comments but we love and are all here for the long form content and the community you’ve created.

Lena Stein

Where did you get that "love you to moon and to saturn" neon sign from? I looked for it online but couldn't find it. Is it custom?

Sophie kelly

GUILTY AS SIN X I CAN SEE YOU

Pauli

The chats on this video were SO RELEVANT. Bon&Em I need you to know that the content you create is SO much more than just "reactor videos".. the fact that all feels so genuine, one can see that you are true passionate swifties that enjoy doing this type of sharing and are not doing it for the attention or the quantity output or whatever (and please give yourselves times to enjoy these things just for yourselves from time to time if you need to. I think we would all rather have less reactions or having to wait longer for a video than have it feel forced or take a toll on your relationship with the music). Going so deep into the meaning and context of songs and also giving space to the non-speculative interpretations of them, those are a few of the things that makes your content so damn special <3 But also, your videos are so accesible for those of us who are not as much on social media or just don't use other platforms. Even beyond that, you've created a community that allows us to conect with one another and that is soooo amazing, especially for those who don't have day-to-day swifties in their lives. Thank you so much for sharing those thoughts and being so authentic in the process by which you choose to give us content!!!

maya zutra

YOU will always be relevant babes no one does it like you 👸 Caroline thanks for the good question!!!!

Nancy

It would be so awesome to see you guys do a full Q&A!!

Jennifer Putman

She got us all happy with max martin songs just to crush us with how did it end?

Juliette B

Next show is my show!!! I’m scared what is she gonna do to me

Bobhog

Ah, I see, maybe that’s why! Thank you for telling me! One really does learn something everyday.

Nancy

We all absolutely love your long videos!! it's such a different experience to a short tiktok, your videos feel like we're all sitting down with friends to take time with each song, it's such a relaxing and connected experience. 🫶

khushi04

she wore the blue dresses because she was celebrating the 89th show! 1989 vibes!!

khushi04

x dress x false god

Yuchen Tao

OMG THANK YOU FOR SHARING YOUR ORIGINAL REP EXPERIENCES!!!!! THIS IS SOMETHING I’VE BEING LONGING FOR.

Meghan Raap

you two are by far my favorite taylor/music reaction channel and a huge part of it is your style of content! as a gemini, I love that you can talk about a single taylor swift song for an hour lol please never change that! it feels like i'm just sitting and chatting with friends ❤️

Lively_Ash

Don’t feel pressured to pause a lot during reactions…let it be natural for yall…go back relisten…whatever feels comfortable for yall bc we are here not just for Taylor, but for yall🫶🫶💛

Emily Warfield

My favorite rants 🩵 love you both so much! You make my swiftie experience.

khushi04

am i crazy or has she already played message in a bottle? i swear she played it sometime already.

Kathleen George

Maybe when she announces rep she will invert the black and white

Abby

“Our best exports” 😂 Can confirm Canadians do this too - RYAN REYNOLDS

wake_up_sluts

I personally was at this show and hearing 60k people scream-cry the how did it end bridge was a spiritual experience. BUSINESS MONTHS

Johanna

Max Martin is absolutely a hero for us Swedes. At least if you appreciate good pop music. I saw him once in a shop in Stockholm and I freaked out. I was there for this medley and it absolutely blew my mind 😆

Sebastian

Em! - She can’t wear the evermore dresses because she needs them to have the light flying effects and floritures for the folklore coreographies where the dress is really important. She doesn’t get to change during the folkmore set.

Joni Salyer

I think she hasn’t worn the evermore dresses because she likes having the fluttery sleeves

Amanda

Its a bit confusing but a lot of stadiums in Europe have ‘arena’ in the name, even though they are in fact stadiums 😂

Momo

Seattle last year!

Jenny Carey

She did message in a bottle at my show, Seattle night 2!

Taylor

This chat just reminded me of that interview yall did not that long ago where they said that yall are basically just besties for us, even if we are on the other side of the world, and it’s so true! I have been a swifite since Fearless era and I don’t have anyone in my life that is a swifite to the level I am that I can really deep dive with, so I love watching y’all’s videos! They make my day 🫶❤️

Erin M

Certain cities and countries might have noise laws that require the concert to be over by 11pm, meaning she’s have to start at 7:30 instead of 8. So maybe that’s why she’s going on earlier?

Ali ❤️‍🔥

I was a debut, fearless, speak now, red STAN. Then I somehow dropped off before 1989 until the midnights era. Before midnights came out I started with lover and rep and (I know this is an unpopular opinion) Miss Americana & THBP really shot me directly back into being a swiftie. It is so crazy how everyone has a different journey! Love hearing what you ladies have to say 🫶🏻🫶🏻

Joan Chan

Yes she played it in Seattle

ella 💜

She did! Seattle Night 2

Joanne Blade

3 things… 1, I flipping LOVEEE listening to you both chat after the secret songs! You gals chat ON. We all love it! Two and three are theory options for dates next year… so 2. she’s either going to get engaged and married and babies with Travis and take some time out to do that and write, like a Rep amount of time out. Or 3, there’s room for one more box left on the Eras merch tiles if TTPD is shrunk to one box, so maybe another comes out after the next re-records and she tours that with the extra dates….. OR MAYBE SHE DOES TWO AND THREE BECAUSE THIS WOMAN CAN LITERALLY DO ANYTHING AND EVERYTHING 😂💃🏼💃🏼 I could never… I don’t even manage to put my laundry away the day it’s dried 😂🫠

Rebekah Foster

Completely relate to Emily. Taylor’s music is so personal because I was more reserved as a child and introspective. My best friend and I bond over music especially Taylor. It’s wonderful to know there are others like us.

Aubrey

I kind of figured she's not wearing the evermore dresses from a more practical standpoint. They are longer than the folklore dresses because they were made to wear with those heeled boots instead of the flats she wears for folklore. So I think they would have to be altered to let her safely do the roof of the folklore cabin and the August run.

Erin M

I’m going to be at the 7/9 show, so I’m expecting Last Kiss as the surprise song, but I hope it’s a mashup with loml or how did it end 🤞🏻

Dswiftie

I saw an interview where they asked Travis to name his top 3 favorite songs from Taylor. He said Blank space, the alchemy and So Highschool. He's so cute. I saw chatter that Taylor came back from her trip with Travis rocking a hickey at the eras tour. Love that you guys r including talking about them in our secret songs videos. I love u guys.

Mads

I def think Joe's participation in writing was exaggerated. You can see how badly she wanted to be with someone who could bond with her over music, which explains why Matty was so intriguing!

Sacred_sunflower

She’s wearing blue and yellow for Sweden flag 🇸🇪

Jennifer Nolan

I think she likes the folklore dresses because most of her choreography during folklore involves swishing around the flowy sleeve/cape bits and the evermore dresses don't have those flowy bits to swish. :)

Cher

Anyone else thinking Taylor and Max might have had some studio time together in Sweden? Maybe on Thursday? Perhaps wishful thinking but would not be surprised!

Mónica Dias

I’m going to N1 in Lisbon and it’s my first Taylor concert and I cannot breathe this week just thinking about it 😻

BratNDaHwz

I read somewhere that Max said he always brought Shellback with him when he worked with Taylor because of how good their vibe was together.

Cher

As an addendum to this, I feel like we are all aware Max is expensive to work with. I don’t think Taylor is put off by that but perhaps she felt like if she is going to work with Max again (and PAY to work with him again) she would want to use that time to create NEW music with him rather than recreating the old.

Hannah

I'm really enjoying the coffee service lately haha what a way to start the day, listening to Taylor live and getting coffee from beloved people ^^

Tayler Sale

Yeah I think she played in Seattle N2 (as someone who is a message in a bottle stan and went to Seattle N1 🙃)

WeatherJoy

Oh absolutely the camera is for privacy.

noah

i will always prefer long form content over short form content. your chats are everythinggg 💗

Stephanie Marie

Guys I know this is off topic , but has anyone else notice the eras tour clock change from pink to orange.? It's literally orange in Stockholm.

Sara Andersson

The 1989 outfit is yellow and blue as an reference to the Swedish flag 🇸🇪 the first night all outfits where Swedish colors.

Erica

The only albums I don’t remember having an experience with are Rep and Lover. 🫣 I was 25 and 27 when they came out and was going through so many changes that I was honestly in such a rebel era. Haha tbh those are the albums I feel are not as authentically her for some reason. Both seem to be her trying to prove something. HOWEVER I have since had a moment with each of course. I love them both. Cruel Summer forever 💕 right when they came out I connected with LWYMMD and Cruel Summer. Then maybe a few months after they came out I connected with the whole albums!

noah

i’m so interested in when exactly bonny became a swiftie. was it when taylor blacked out her socials?

Dswiftie

you guys are making me think about coming across your channel back when you were two girls sharing their love for Taylor. One video I was hooked. I would get so excited when you posted a video. Which I still get today. I still go back and watch your videos today. You give me so much joy! You just don't understand. I don't have anyone to share Taylor's music with except you. To answer your question I was alone listening to Taylor's new albums. Always alone.

Dswiftie

Can you guys tell us how you two first met. I would love to hear the story.

Jesse Conner

Loving these extended chats 🥹 also, to add to the chorus of folks from yesterday, definitely do the songs in the order in which you fathom them. With 31 songs there’s no use forcing something just to make sure you do them in order.

Emma

60k is only a little bit smaller than some of the stadiums she was playing in the US

Emma

She’s wearing blue and yellow a lot because of Sweden!

solarinstitute

wildest dreams TV was produced by Shellback!

Courtney Santoro

I don’t watch your videos for the length, I watch them for you two. And I would happily watch your content until we’re all in our 80s and 90s 🤎

Katrina

I Hate It Here is about the public backlash she got for dating Matty, the second chorus is connected to Down Bad, wanting to find another planet "where they can all understand it." It's not about wanting to escape a relationship.

Jules

I’m loving how you’re “chatting” more with us on the backside of Eras tour reactions. I appreciate both the more formal reaction videos and the relaxed casual chats with reactions. This feels very balanced and ties into your brand of chats & reacts. I absolutely love your Patreon channel and feel like I’m missing out when there’s a long stretch without a Patreon video. Your videos just simply must be a part of my week 💕

Crystin

Don't worry or fathom TikTok. We are here for your vibes!

LindseyMarie

Just having to jump on as you’re talking about being worried about other reactors! NO ONE is doing it to the quality and standards that you are!! I am also a millennial and consume a lot of YouTube, but us millennials aren’t going anywhere anytime soon! I watch other reactions as well, but see them as totally different than what you provide, almost like how my relationship to pizza changed after 2 weeks in Italy. I came back home to Kansas and just have to see my local pizza options as something similar, but so different and far less superior, but I’m still gonna eat it 😂 You all pulled me in right away with your superior reactions on YouTube about a year ago when Tess Bohne mentioned you in a livestream, and then I not only enjoyed the Taylor content, I realized I actually really loved the two of you and your friendship and authenticity and joy and just couldn’t get enough, especially since I don’t have swifties in my real life, other than my Fearless 5yr old son 😁 I love all of the Taylor reactions and fathomings, but also love the bits and pieces of yourselves and your lives and friendship that you share with us. I think I can speak for many of us when I say I promise we’re not going anywhere!! And I also don’t want you all to get burnt out or feel pressure to do anything different that doesn’t feel authentic to you. We will always understand you taking care of yourselves and ensuring that you still get the joy out of Taylor that you need for your souls. Even if you need a longer break sometimes, you have so much amazing content on here and YouTube, your videos are often comfort for me to replay as I work or fall asleep and want something light and familiar. Thank you for all you do and for being you! As I tell my kids all the time, comparison is the thief of joy, you do you kid💕

Dannele

I love your long form videos!! They’re different from what other people are doing and I love it. And your partnership as BEST FRIENDS who are fathoming together is so special and unique to just you two. ❤️

Karen Valentino

You two do the best reactions. I actually listened to several TTPD reactions and it was clear that some reactors weren’t really listening to what Taylor was saying - they were looking for confirmation of what they thought she would say. You both have a knack for listening deeply. Trying to do something fast almost always results in an inferior result.

LindseyMarie

They did a whole q&a on their friendship here on Patreon! It’s lovely 🥰

Katie Walmsley

I was going to add this point! The blue is all about “intentional dressing,” just like the royals do (and she is a royal queen after all!)

Rick

i saw an interview with a member of the national who said that taylor asked for advice about collaborating with her partner and he told her that writing songs together was therapeutic for the couple, many couples have done this like jay z and beyoncé or even fleetwood mac

Cher

Ugh just realizing she was very obviously in Italy with Travis on Thursday. Definitely wishful thinking!!🤦🏼‍♀️

Rick

i think the factor that must have contributed to Taylor not collaborating with Max anymore was that he did not give her production credits on 1989 and Reputation when she actually did him help to produce the songs. He gave himself credit as a songwritter when he did not wrote certain songs.

Cher

Completely agree!!

Jamie Lincoln

Girls! I literally skip TikTok’s because I’m like … nope, done care of it’s not Bonnie and Emily really deep diving it. Yours is THE opinion 🙌🏻

Caroline

AHHH! I feel famous haha. That was my question that you answered from the last video about how you experience new TS albums!!! It made me so happy you read my comment and thought it was worth discussing! For 30 minutes!! ICONIC. This is such a wholesome community and I love being here. THANK YOU!!! And PLEASE keep pushing that pressure away!! I understand it though :)

sydney

Your reactions make the release of a new taylor album feel extra special. This is such a wonderful community and you guys just *get it* and actually help us fathom. I know nothing until you guys inform us haha

sydney

I also love these chats added to the secret song reactions love u girls

Erin M

Glad you are taking the time to process and breakdown albums. It’s got to feel like a lot of pressure especially in pop-girl Spring 2024. Like what is this? Feels like every week there is a new iconic album!

rachel long

Taylorswiftstyled on Instagram dropped the camera link but it is $700 🥲 but she named the filter too!!

0opsieDaisie

loveeee these extended chatty reactions! <3

Maegan Salazar

Blue was for show 89! It was a 1989 tribute 😂

Jaime McKee

This is a good point - plus no sleeves for the flowy choreography of August and My Tears Ricochet, and someone mentioned the built-in safety buckle of the Folklore dresses as well.

Caroline

Girlies she did play Message in a Bottle already. It was my surprise song for Seattle Night 2 with Tied Together with a Smile :)

💯

Honestly if I get a video every 2 weeks its good value. You two are doing great. Take your time and make content you love!! You both rock!

David Lane

Another reason for the indoor shows is that May in the northern hemisphere is not particularly warm. I am in Canada rn and it will be a high of 9C today. Add to that the possibility of rain and Taylor might as well add “Do You Want To Build. A Snowman?” To the set list. Also, various stadiums might be booked for Football matches so indoor venues would be a backup plan.

Chasity Mcdonald

I cut Joe a little slack in his responses about Taylor because I think he and Travis are in very different places in their careers. Joe is still trying to build an acting career and probably didn’t want to be seen as trading on her name too much. Travis is a multiple time Super Bowl winner who is one of the most known players in the sport. Him talking about her is lower stakes in my opinion.

Carolina Soares

i CANNOT believe your next reaction is going to be MY SHOW 😭

Sacred_sunflower

Can I just say how much I appreciate Emily’s gemini energy, I am here for the long form videos and completely agree 2 min is simply not enough time to fathom!

Marla Lee

I don’t watch or have any interest for Tik Tok. I only watch You Tube and you guys are THE ONLY ONES I watch and joined Patreon for. PLEASE DON’T change who you are or your way of creating content for the sake of the crazy masses. I love your videos and watching your “Chats and Reacts” to the songs. Thanks for everything you both do, it’s truly appreciated 🙏👍🙌😉

Julia

I was at this show and immediately thought of you guys when message in a bottle started. I remembered you saying that it surprisingly hadn’t been played yet. So I was screaming “this is illegal” the whooooole song lmao🤭🤩

Marla Lee

I am a Gen X (57) and love listening to you Millennials 😍🙌

Marla Lee

And just last year it’s when I started listening to Ms. Taylor Swift. My favorite Era is Folklore and Evermore😍

kirstie b

i’m still processing ttpd. very slowly. i have to be in the mood. every time i hear a song, i like it better. it’s been like that since lover. her lyrics are superior in ttpd. more than any other album. and yes bonny, i have those intimate, teary moments alone before bed just watching and digesting her lyric videos. and yes bonny and emily, i hear you with the pressure. but what got you so popular, was being yourselves, your authentic beautiful individual selves… the excited and WILD JOY you exhude. i hope the pressure does not get to you and you push it away like bonny said. feeling pressure is normal when you achieve success. i understand why you are feeling overwhelmed. i hope you can navigate balancing your mental health and pleasing fans… just like i hope taylor does. MAKING THOSE BOUNDARIES. it’s so important. keep being you. that’s what drew me in in the beginning. thank you for being so transparent.

Lily

I really loved your chat about how you approach listening to new albums and this was truly the main reason I fell in love with your channel. I was never a huge Taylor Swift fan before more than liking her music and having it in my playlists but your passion and dedication was so refreshing. Since then I have fathomed not only Taylor's albums in a new way but also my own favorite albums of other artists simply by just analyzing lyrics, sound and composition in the way that you do. So what I am trying to say is just thank you! Looking forward to many more fathomings with you❤️

Breanne Lee

Stick with YouTube and long form. TikTok is being divested in the US (though lawsuits have been filed) and I am curious how other countries will be handling TikTok in the future

kirstie b

agree emily! about tik tok. i get overwhelmed enough just on twitter! tik tok is fun BUT too much. way too much. i process songs in my own way. i don’t feel pressure anymore to memorize lyrics. (p.s i AM obsessed w memorizing the PROPHECY chorus because i need to know every word). but i am able to learn words organically when i just LISTEN in the car. then i’ll go back to lyrics for specific wording.

kirstie b

LWYMMD video was SO ICONIC. she came back w a fucking vengeance, while making fun of herself. and letting haters know that she is deeply aware of what people say about her. i don’t like the song but that VIDEO? broke the internet.

kirstie b

i always liked joe. he seemed very respectful gentleman. i understand her attraction to london boyz. i think she really bonded and fell in love w him during the pandemic. she NEEDED that. and vibed w joes need for privacy. but maybe when she wanted to go back on tour and Joe thinking about that lifestyle I think maybe things got very difficult. It’s was devastating to watch the break up. we all thought he was END GAME. i in addition to other swifties, was really upset about it. but the hate on Joe is so stupid. Each person has their own needs. we really don’t know what went on. that’s when i relate the lyrics to myself. i’m just obsessed w tayvis right now. he can handle her fame and praises her and protects her. i’m like obsessed in an unhealthy way. i cry when i see them sharing their love. they are very snuggly and kissing and hand holding. i want that. i’m 52 and never been in love. one day it will happen…

Caroline

I got you :)

Raneem

Oh my gosh.. Bon & Em your energy is so wonderful and for as long as you make videos I will definitely be watching. The joy and excitement that comes with a new Taylor Swift album is amplified by the knowledge that we get to watch your reactions to it. Your style of videos are so needed and loved, never doubt that. ❤️ I mean I was definitely sat waiting for the extended versions of both TTPD reactions 🤣❤️ and will continue to be sat for any future content. This comment is way too long, but just wanted to tell you that I’m grateful for the love and care you weave into your videos. Love you both ❤️

Ellie

I thought Guilty as Sin? was a loss for me but I absolutely CHOCKED when she sang How did it end 😭😭😭

Stephanie Spencer

You guys have quality! Don’t stop or change. You guys are the most informed when it comes to Taylor Swift past & present songs, personal experience and theories of what she is saying. I feel like you’re my besties for real. I love to connect with your reactions over any others. Other reactions never know “as much as you two”! Love you so much, you guys are able to express yourself and your intelligence.

kirstie b

me too. i’m 52. obsessed. i discovered her debut when i was in a psychiatric facility for 19 months. taylor is special to me.

kirstie b

i wonder how invested travis is, in her lyrics?

The Renn Domino Experiment

I found your YouTube channel immediately after your Lover reaction and watched every one of your videos since then, but I did not join Patreon until October 2022. I don't give my time, money, or loyalty to anyone/any thing quickly. Being a superior patron is my favorite form of entertainment. There are a lot of Taylor "expert" reactors out there, but I won't give 1 penny to their Patreon account because I don't connect to THEM. I connect to you gals because you connect to the music FIRST. You are not desperate nor are you surviving for the approval of others. You want to create good content, but are not willing to change who you are to please the masses. Don't change what you do or how you do it. Connect to the music, then connect with me; this is how it must be. Love you gals so much.

Julie K

OMG I have the same Swiftea mug!! My sister gave it to me for Christmas, I already loved it but know do more, knowing you also have it 😍🥰🫶

kirstie b

i was SHATTERED and hooked at your ATW 10 minute version FREAK OUT session. that was beautiful. i want to share parts of it w my therapist.

Lily

Max Martin is definitely considered a TRUE Swedish icon!

Alexis

Also, thank you for opening up so much about yourselves. In regard to the TikTok and insecurities discussion, they don’t do it like you two. You two are the epitome of Swifties. So much so that Scott and Taylor invited you to the VIP tent. Taylor knows who you are and even wrote you a personal letter. 😭 We all love you. Keep doing things your way and staying true to yourselves. We shall naturally follow. 🫶🏽

Jessica

We thought she was wearing all the blue/yellow outfits because of the Swedish flag. Same as with the blue folklore and speak now dress. ☺️

Mequet

I’ll tell you what I watch other reactors and no one compares to you guys!! I basically watch their reactions as filler until yalls reaction comes out and then when yalls drops I’m like EVERYONE SHUT THE FUCK UP and then I watch yalls reaction and only then do I actually feel like we’ve entered the new era. Y’all are also the only patreon I’ve subscribed to and stayed subscribed to since you had it! I don’t think you guys need to change a single thing about the way you approach this work because I love all of your content but I love your friendship and your well-being even more! Please keep pushing away the pressure to be different or faster or shorter or whatever! You’ve created a community full of people who love y’all just the way you are!

Cleo Ryder

Paris was an arena because Stade de France (80,000 capacity) is being worked on for the Olympics in July

Courtney D

WE ARE HERE FOR THE CHATS! (Thank you so much for the long-form content and deep fathomings, there is a reason we re-watch your videos so many times)

Amanda P

I am such a TikTok girly with an extremely short attention span & I loooove your long form videos! Got so excited when I saw today’s reaction was over an hour, feels like hanging with friends! 🩷

Dswiftie

Kristi do you get on discord at all? I'm 61 and feel too old to be on it. When I get on no one talks to me. I have been a fan of Taylors. I followed her career. When she went from country to pop I followed.

Becca

I love that you all listen to the songs and then read the lyrics. It’s hard to hear some lyrics, especially for me with being legally deaf in one ear, which also lends to the emotion of the song. Between excitement and not hearing the lyrics or processing the lyrics, I can understand people not getting emotional over the first listen.

Sarah✨️

When I was watching the live feed yesterday, only thing I could think was I cannot wait to see Bonnie and Emily's reaction! Soooo goooood!! What a freaking night in Sweden!

Tiggy

Personally I prefer longer forms of content and I love your breakdowns so much!!! Love you girlies, your energy is so bright xx

Tsukiakari1203

Shellback came back for Wildest Dreams TV which came out way before the rest of the album

Courtney D

I love this comment. The fact that so many of us re-watch their videos for comfort means they are doing it RIGHT!

Generi Talens

pleaseee continue doing long form, y’all are the only creators i’ll listen to when it comes to talking about taylor swift ❤️ i appreciate all the fathomings and how intricate and detailed yall are with analyzing the lyrics and the meaning behind the songs. every time i get a notification on patreon i get so excited to listen to you girlies ❤️ keep doing what yall are doing!!

Jessica Lambert

I have a bootleg fearless recording also! I actually just found it! I can send you the file if you want some nostalgia! 😂🥰

Silvia

yes !! we love the loong videos on youtube and even more the extended versions here in patreon hehe alsooo👀 let’s not forget who also LOVE your youtube videos and for a good reason (taylor swift herself and father scott) 🤍

Farhana

Honestly girls I just wanna say I love your thoughts and long form videos so keep doing you guys! I just love your thoughts and the long form way more than short ones

Blaine

She did message in a bottle in Seattle N2 no?

Miantsa

First of all, thank you SO MUCH for all the content you create, and the QUALITY of that content. It cannot be said enough!! I do sometimes watch those Tiktok fathoming videos and they're great, but it doesn't take away from what you guys do. You have such a knowledge of Taylor's discography, sure, but I also love how considerate and respectful you are in the way you approach your fathoming. And again, it cannot be said enough but the COMMUNITY you created around you, with us here on Patreon but also on Discord and Youtube? That is priceless and truly what I want to believe being a Swiftie is really about. So I understand that there's a lot of pressure with social media and short form, but we really see and appreciate you guys for your personalities, your friendship, and the depth and care you bring to your analyses. We can absolutely feel it, and that's personally why this is the only Patreon I keep subscribing to 😅❤️‍🔥

Hannah S

I thought this convo about your channel and music reacting was so interesting! I relate to Emily in that growing up being a Taylor fan was so individual. For all of college I had a 1989 sticker on my laptop and only once in 4 years did anyone start a convo about Taylor with me. Now though everyone from my boss to my dentist wants to give me their opinion on Taylor and it’s overwhelming so I can only imagine how it is for you guys. I love talking about her of course but only with people who “get it” aka this superior community.

Hannah S

Also I thought her 1989 outfit was blue and yellow to be like the Swedish flag but maybe it just looked like that in a photo I saw.

alex

Em I understand you! Because my first album I listened to after TTPD was 1989 TV and I needed the positive vibes and energy so much ✨

Kaylee Callister

Yes I think that Taylor wearing the blues and the yellows this weekend was paying homage to the Swedish flag very intentionally! Much like in Argentina and Brazil she was wearing her blue green and yellow! It’ll be fun to see how and if she continues to do this! Taylor Swift Styled did a post on her Patreon about this. Also I personally really like the blue variations of the outfits 🤷‍♀️ I think she looks stunning in blue

Filip d1930

I love you girlies so much!!❤️ Your videos are the best🔥

Jaimi Carter

Not only do we love your longform videos, but we need them! There has never been a time when I was glad the video was over. I’m always sad and wished you would just chat with me forever. We love you two so much!

Char

Your reactions make new album releases more exciting for me too!

Anissa Kazi

In his WSJ article, Travis talked about how he's become more invested in her breakup lyrics and said that it's a miracle the way she turns her life into poetry. Jason also mentioned on someone's podcast a few months ago that Travis loves to analyze song lyrics

Kera Wilhelmsen

I think the blue dresses was for the 89th show. 😊

Antonia

Swedens flag is yellow and blue 🫶🏼🇸🇪

Char

Long form is more intimate and cozy.❤️

Char

Thanks for the chat. You are handling all of this so well. Makes me love you even more.

Hila

I was thinking- "A poet trapped inside the body of a finance guy" Like in "The Man" music video???? Maybe it's also about the industry and/or women in the world and stuff I'm not really sure if that makes any sense but I had to share 🤡🤡

Rachel

As an older girlie (today’s actually my 43rd bday), I have to tell you I very much prefer your long form videos to tik toks. Maybe it’s a generational thing but I think people of all ages can relate - the world moves so fast these days and we’re all facing sensory overload at all times. It feels SO GOOD to just settle in with one of your videos and relax and really get into all the details. This is why we beg for the extended reaction videos. Have you fathomed how many views your 4+ hour TTPD reaction videos have received? We love you guys. Please keep being yourselves because you will ALWAYS have an audience with fellow Swifties. 🫶

Ken Lamoreaux

I've always wondered how you guys reacted to the older albums. Thanks for sharing! 🤗🫨🫶

Savanah Vanzant

I think I speak for this whole community when I say your content will never be irrelevant or inferior to newer reactors/creators on social media ❤️

Joanna Kowal

This little Q & A session inspired me to ask another question I am hoping you will answer. I am the only swiftie in my friend group and the only person who is involved in the „lore”. All my friends associate me with being a swiftie (I am not sure if all of them see it positively) but I definitely start to struggle with the fact that people’s go to topic conversation with me is now always Taylor Swift. I know they want to connect but still this is not something I want to always talk about, especially when I know that other people are listening and they may not be that interested or sometimes I feel like people ask me to be polite. So my question would be: do you ever feel this way? Tired for this to be the main topic of conversation or just not wanting to only being associated with being a swiftie? Or are you fine with that and you always want to talk about it?

Mollie

Can I just tell you both thank you so much for having this channel and all of your platforms, your the safest most loving space I can go too after a hard day and it’s so special, love you guys 🤍

Andrea Faria

It’s funny because I was never a fan of Joe 😅 and the few times I said it in the past people went crazyyy and judgmental towards me. And I get, I was happy she was (apparently) happy and that she could overcome almost loosing her career because she had the support and the opportunity to be more private. But I really hated the way he spoke about her… or didn’t speak at all and was kinda angry when someone dared to ask. That’s why I love it soooo much how Travis loves her so proudly and loudly 🤍

Ida Tøien

I agree! I always found it truly odd that someone who wants a career in acting is so against any kind of attention? She truly deserves to be loved this way by someone so aware of what a special human being she truly is. Add to that him being a superior and passionate man as well? Perfection :)

emma

I would much prefer to listen to your guys opinion on songs after you have sat with them for a while rather than a 30 seconds TikTok of someone who has listened to a song once. You guys are doing brilliantly and I really respect what you have to say

Monica

Absolutely shocked by brunette Emily

Lucy

Gutted I lost Message in a Bottle!😭 Guys manifest The Great War or a Speak Now song for Liverpool N3 please🙏🏻

Daisy Chavez

100% I was just about to post this. There’s something immensely comforting about sitting down to extended chats with Bon and Em rather than the sensory overload nightmare that is flipping through 374839 short videos on Reels/TT. There’s just so much more value added in getting well rounded and thought out discussions where it feels like we’re all in a room together rather than just having random thoughts thrown out at me from all angles 😅

Chasity Mcdonald

Yeah I think that sometimes the fans are too fast to make their theories fact in their own heads. I think the lead up to TTPD really showed that. A lot of people were so ready for every song to be a Joe dragging and she didn’t give them that. I don’t think that Emily and Bonny are doing that, but you can tell that some fans just need him to be a bigger villain than he was. I don’t think Taylor is really ever going to let us in to the ending of it more than she already has.

Brenda1989

Yes!! Always long form Taylor content!! What am I supposed to do with a 2 minute break down? Nothing can be learned from 2 minutes!! Knowing that I have a whole year grad with ur takes and fathoms is so special!! I’m here bc I don’t have anyone who loves Taylor as much as I do in my life so knowing that there will always be a lengthy conversation waiting for is a joy!!

Joe Weaver

You got that right. The quick opinion brigade around the release was not the best. And I get that if you aren't a huge Swiftie you aren't going to listen to these songs over & over if you don't get them right away. That's what i do with other artists so I get it. But nobody needs to hear my opinion about those artists! And yet people feel a need these days to let everyone know what they think regardless.

Stevie

I enjoy your nuanced approach to Taylor’s music and live performances way more than most quickies on TikTok or somewhere else. You created a safe space for Swift admirers. Understandable that you need “time-outs” to recharge and can’t be able to be online and available all the time. Keep on doing it your style. Thanks in advance. Best regards from the SSAD (senior Swift admirers department) German section

Helene

I was there at n3 and it was SUPERIOOOOR. Truly such a once in a lifetime experience, and seeing TTPD live only a month after the album dropped is wiiiiild to me. When I heard "we hereby conduct" I nearly blacked out, and the Medley was insane. I dont even have post concert depression because I knew I would come home and watch you guys react to those songs haha

Eric Sanders

This is one of the top thumbnails of all time

Hunter

Yes! You definitely make release day feel bigger and better. I’m so grateful that you girls decided to start this channel ❤️

Hunter

Omg sameeee. I was shooketh

Sarah

And Ryan Gosling too! The 2 Canadian Ryans!

Luz Meneses

I love you so so so much! I read somewhere that in some cities she has to do arenas cuz of the football leagues going on in Europe, def bigger stadiums but they were booked already 🤷🏼‍♀️🤷🏼‍♀️🤷🏼‍♀️

Jess

Hi girls! Would you consider filming a “2nd Listen Reaction”? Maybe just for Patreon but I think it could be very interesting! No pressure to analyze, literally just react, and this time you can’t pause the song, you just listen to it, feel it, and then maybe quickly discuss things that you’ve just fathomed. It’d be great to get a look at that second listen! 🤍 just a thought!

Jason

Girls, much like with Taylor Swift, we are here for the long haul with you. Call us Chatsandreacties lol. Keep doing you!

Brent

About the styles of content... I think the Swiftie reactor-watching community in general wants videos all the time, not just when an album comes out, so the flood of videos at release date all blend together but videos later on stand out. Whatever timeline you want to take is absolutely fine!

kenna🪽

you guys are like the older sisters i never had🤍🥹 i respect your guys’ opinions so much and feel the safest in your space. i listen to you guys at work, the shower, to fall asleep to, all of it. thank you for all that you do!

Andrea

Please keep doing it the way that feels right for you, bc that's how you get to connect, enjoy and express better your passion! Never feel like you need to do more, faster or shorter!! We love you guys for who you are, and we love your content bc it feels genuine, so don't let strangers change that for you!

Joseph (Taylor's Version)

I was there for this show and the opening night, and it was my very first time seeing Taylor ever! And they were all songs I was hoping for and absolutely needed 😭🧡

Gia

Emily: "that's why they have to take the Eras tour literally everywhere" Me: *cries in New Zealand*

WestonMacMom

Love y’all so much!!! I’ve learned so such from y’all! And I just adore how authentic your reactions are to Taylor! 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

Jenny MacRunnel

She was wearing yellow and blue all weekend, because those are Sweden's colors on their flag.

Izzzy Federgreen

i find the ICDIWABH coat so interestin! Dr. TS has gold, silver, white, and black! i didn't expect all of them, i wonder if there's any black and white coat combos to come

Nicole D

Yes, this please! A little late now though :P

Nicole D

Please consider doing the song breakdowns in order so we can fathom on the same schedule as you :(

Javi

have they reacted to the ttpd phone demos yet in any of these latest vids??? or will that be a separate vid? 👀

Jenny MacRunnel

Trust me, you guys are very relevant, even without TikTok. I don't know any reactors that do it like you do, and your style is honestly my favorite. And I do watch lots. Blake McClain is maybe the closest. He does reactions to Taylor, and his are more from the perspective of a music producer, because that's what he does. He has his own style and I really like his, as well, but you guys are def my favorite Swifties! No one else gets as excited as you guys do too, and I love the cheerleading!

dachiefs1969

What you're doing is invaluable. We'll keep watching because what you do is for quality, not clicks. Thank you.

Jackie Weiss

One thing I love about watching your reactions is that it has the ✨first listen magic✨ and I can feel like I’m listening for the first time again!!

Teri 🫶🏻

you guys should do swiftball the night before and go through your sheets after!!

Mly

I love the story time!!! ❤️

Czechgrl

Love you ladies!!! We were screaming during that medley and how did it end 😱 😱 I always look forward to watching with y’all after!!

Noah Hanson

Here’s the thing, have we considered that the reason Taylor hasn’t worked with Max Martin for the re-records is because Max has some sort of contract with Big Machine? That’s gotta be the reason right? I need to know what you iconic girls think about that!! ❤️❤️

Czechgrl

Reputation = I see you from across the bar and I want to fuck you. ✍️ got it. 😂

Charlotte Irene

Now I need to hear how the two of you met and became friends. Have you told us this story yet?

Jillian Landers

Loving these extras chats at the end! Girls, can you talk about how yall met and your first reactions to each other? 😂

Annie

Yeah, I think they have. I am trying to file through my brain to remember what video it was...If I find it I will link it:)

Jillian Landers

Oh wait just found it from last year’s Q&A vid!

Gabby V

which video?

Maev

They explained their stories on a video here on patreon where they did a big Q&a !!!

LanaJulie33

Omg you girls please keep doing what you do... take the time you need and pace yourselves. Love you both much. So grateful for everything you give us and for always being your authentic selves. I'm so thankful I got to meet you both and give you giant hugs. Fun chat, too!! xoxo chickens 🥰😍🥰😍

Taylor Bailey

I just want to let you both know that I appreciate everything that you’re doing here. I don’t have any Swifties in my life - although my wonderful husband will listen to the music and let me go on and on about what the songs are about and insert his fun comments - but I have no one I can listen to or discuss Taylor Swift or her music with so being able to listen to all of your opinions, fathomings, theories, & general excitement makes her music and being a fan so much more exciting to me. I have been a fan since Debut (& I was also born a Taylor S!) so I have always felt a connection to Taylor but never was able to find anyone who felt the same way about her or her music that I did until I found you two. So glad you two do the long videos; I feel like we are all hanging out fathoming Taylor Swift in my living room together :)

Ariana B

Am I hearing the ocean through your windows? It’s deeply relaxing.

Alex Engstrom

Most of what Tiktokers are doing is very surface level that sometimes doesn't come off as purely authentic. I think your professional way of doing also gives off more Taylor Swift energy in a way. There's a more logical perspective and the way you speak about Taylor and her music humanizes her in a way if that makes sense. Plus having the the two of you allows for more fathomings.

Linds K

I’m so confused 🤣 both Taylor and Bonny said things that make it seem like she’s never played Message In A Bottle live before, but she played it in Seattle 7/23, I’ve been keeping track 🧐 also just rewatched your reaction to it to make sure I’m not crazy 😅

BREANNA BELL

I LOVE long form content!! You guys rock it !

Jazzyg

You guys! it says on spotify and wiki that Shellback came back and produced wildest dreams TV, 22, i knew you were trouble, we are never, and message in a bottle. I swear spotify never used to say this, has it changed or been updated????

David Lane

As far as the long form video VS quick turnaround/TikTok videos, I prefer a more considered opinion rather than a hot take in the moment. That, and the added theatricality of the two of you nearly bludgeoning each other to death is entertaining AF.

tayblessings

i think i speak for the majority of us here.. i simply cannot watch a 2 min review or breakdown of a taylor song.. i love and need the loooong conversations you guys have! i dont let the social media pressure get to you.. plus the vibes and genuine love you bring is truly amazing and cannot and will not find it else where! love you

Lindsay

Genius has always had those credited to Shellback, not sure about Spotify or wiki

Stella

I went N3 in Stockholm and I started crying so hard when she played How did it end. One my my faves :')

kelsie

i was there at seattle night 2 when she played it and i really thought i was crazy while watching this 🫠

Corina Varlan

Message in a bottle was first played at my seattle show!

Curt Decker

I love your deep-dive fathomings and long form videos. Your personalities are both so smart & charming that I just love listening to you having a long conversation. Thanks for all the laughter & fathomings & joy ❤️

ton

It might be interesting to tell us what’s coming a few days before so we can reflect✌️

Jaana

I still can’t believe I was there 😭 I would’ve bawled my eyes out hadn’t I been so overwhelmed we actually got How did it end?

Filippa

It was rare, I was thereeee. As a Swede who loves Max Martin....this was a lot!! I'm so glad I got to see it live!

Dylan

Message in the bottle wasn’t new - she played in Seattle night 2

Mi

Putting my clown suit on while waiting for Max Martin to join the recording of the Karma songs for the Rep vault.

Tessa Taylor

Loving the extra chats after these videos, I feel like it’s what we all want being Patreon members!! Feels like a cosy chat between friends❣️❣️❣️

Gianina

Thank you guys so muchhh for this videooo and the long chat and storytime!! I just love knowing about your experiences with taylor and it just shows how special she is🫶 Love you guys and i don't think i'll ever get tired of listening to your chats🥰

Oscar

Love you besties!

Oscar

Love the long form content!! Please never stop hehe 🥰

Jaana

And I love that you do long form content and actually deep dive in the songs with lyrics, links to other songs and references to whatever there might be. Tiktoks and Reels dan be fun but for me they’re not the format even for reactions, not to mention fathomings.

V

This was my show!!! Nothing could have prepared me for the superiority this night would be, and the complete freakout from everyone when she started the max martin medley!! I was there for n2 and n3 and this weekend was just so superior in every way possible wow... I can't believe I got to witness 10/21 songs from 1989 (including the actual set), LIKE I basically got 1989 tour AT the eras tour I could cry 😭 Also got 2 of my top songs from TTPD as surprise songs?!???!!! like HOW did this even happen im just so grateful... The Eras Tour truly is the show of a lifetime, nothing like this has or will ever be replicated again.. THANK YOU TAYLOR SWIFT 🩷💚💛💜🩵🧡 and thank you Bon & Em for these reactions which I can look back on with the fondest memories!!! I hope you guys get tickets for the London shows, im going one last time on closing night for Europe and London (N8) maybe ill see you there 🫶🫶🫶

AshZ

I think in a time where I love listening to podcasts, long form content still has a place and I always feel more connected to the youtubers I watch because of that. It really does feel like a conversation with friends (even though I’m just talking to myself and a screen lol), maybe it’s the millennial in me but I can’t see my opinion changing.

Lisa Kell

I've been a member for long time. The only reason I watch you is for your long videos on Patreon and YouTube. I'm not into the short TikTok/Other postings, not my thing. I don't do Discord much unless to look at pics, but mostly stay off Discord. No offense. I like the in-depth conversations and ponderings on Patreon and YouTube, so it's the long videos for me. Also, I like that you guys can react to first time album drops, but mostly I like it when you go back and redo the whole album in depth, because the first time listening is chaotic, but fun. Lastly, I only watch you for your Taylor Swift content. It's fine if you do other content, but I don't watch a lot of it. No offense. And I'm perfectly fine to continue paying as I do for just the Taylor content (and Travis!).

Tessa Shabram

She has played Message in a Bottle!! That was my secret song at my show!! Seattle night 2 :)

Lee

Max Martin produced Conan Gray’s new album. I’d love to hear you guys react to that.

V. Babida

Thank you for this offensive chat re: first time listening to Taylor’s albums. It brought back so many memories for me as a fan from debut era. I have so many memories from those first few albums of running to Target on release day to buy the album and rock out to it for the first time in my car ❤️ bless you ladies for the nostalgia this morning ❤️

Sanja

Great video! I saw a video on Instagram a person as a new swiftie asking for advice on how to approach it. I find as a new swiftie, as Taylor is such a unique musician, with story telling and links to her private life, what your advice would be to new swifties (all ages). Please continue with long form, short form isn't for everyone and not everyone is on all platforms. I am not on Tik Tok, the platform isn't for me. You are my go to for inputs on Taylor and other reactions you make :)

Sanja

Reputation experience was my first Taylor Swift experience ever, I remember seeing the teaser video/song - Are you ready for it? - with the snake and I really looked forward to listening to it on Spotify. Some vague memories of the internet turning against her, I have never been into social media so I was picking up some information here and there. However, I didn't carry on following her super closely. I really didn't appreciate how her personal life and experience has been reflected in her songs. I am all over it now. Listening to old albums and connected to her songs now. I must have lived under the rock 😂

Joe Weaver

My best guess is Max just wasn't interested in replicating his prior work. I seriously doubt it's a money thing. If Taylor really wanted him to do it & that was the only issue, she'd pay him whatever he wants. Not like she can't afford it.

Emily

This one hurt me 😅😭

Destiny Murtaugh

I didn't even recognize em in that lover video hahah! I thought it was Bonny with that long dark hair 😂

Charlotte Irene

That was my thought too. If TayTay can’t afford him, what performer on this planet could?? 😆 I’m thinking money isn’t the issue.

Charlotte Irene

Long form content all the way, baby! There’s just too much to say about Taylor Swift. TikToks would never do it justice.

Autumn Atencio

Your guys content is the absolute best! I love the long videos and would much rather you take your time and really fathom it. You’re the absolute best at breakdowns and my go to for sure but I also don’t want you guys to feel too much pressure!

Autumn Atencio

I was 6 when debut came out and 8 when fearless came out but was huge fans of both (i had the journey to fearless dvd that i watched every single day) but I didn’t know about Speak Now either!!! I literally didn’t know she was releasing an album until either the day she did or a couple days later

Vyktoria Lamont

I still have about 20 mins left of the video but I wanna say that you guys are part of my "phases" of listening to a new taylor album 😭 I always watch the reactions as soon as they come out, which is typically when the album is pretty new still, so you guys help me disect some things. & then a couple weeks later, after I've listened to the album a hundred times, I re-watch your reactions to watch you guys react to the songs for the first time now that I understand them! Thank you guys so much for what you do. love youuu 🤍🫶🏼 *edit to say i love the long form videos, i need all the details!

Kate Ayotte

I love hearing your individual journey with TS music, and how you listened and absorbed her music. I did not become a Swiftie until Folklore, and that process was through the Long Pond Sessions on Disney. Being an older Swiftie (50), during her Debut through 1989 album releases her music just didn't connect with me. I was buying a home and having babies while she was just becoming an adult. Now, her music is my soul.

Raegan Williams

I’m having issues finding/rejoining the main chat like it’s completely gone , and I can’t find the community buttonnnn hellllp

Brooke Dean

I love the extra chats! I know you have mentioned having August tattoos, do you have any other Taylor tattoos? Can you show us your tattoos?

Sezi

I’m having such a moment with How Did It End. It is so beautifully mournful and haunting

marissa

Love your long form content besties! There's so many reaction videos & creators out there now who've just jumped on the bandwagon lately and do it for clout and just say things that they know will gain attention and stay on "trend", especially with taylor, and they all just feel so inauthentic. From the beginning, you guys have always just been yourselves and are so warm and genuine and it always shines through! Don't worry about everyone else on fake social media, just keep doing you, babes! Long rambling lol, but our true community here will always support you with anything and everything :)

Taylor J

I'm so confused because didn't she play Message In A Bottle Seattle N2?? Why did she say she's never played it on the tour before this?

Ramon❀°。

there’s only 2 girls I would do free work for and their names are Bonny and Em - I’d KILL to manage their tik toks and edits 😭😭😭

Ben

I NEED the long form content! You slay all day! Don’t ever stop 😘😘🫶🫶

isabel

ANOTHER COFFEE RUNNN 😂😍 emily your bf treats yall well i LOVE IT

isabel

also girls let me just say, you will ALWAYS be seen in my eyes. i don’t use TikTok so i have no input from that side of people reacting to taylor stuff. literally only you so if there are no chats&reacts stans, that means im dead ☠️ LOVE YOU GIRLS 🩷💕🤭

V. Babida

I don’t think she said she’s never played it on tour - she said that max has always wanted to hear it live but that never happened til the night she played it in Stockholm. I also think the girls just forgot that she played it Seattle N2 hehehe

Ebru

I wonder if Max Martin will be back for the Rep re-records?

Joe Weaver

Yes on both accounts I believe.

kiizumie

Your long-form content is a large part of the reason I've been able to connect with Taylor Swift's songs on a deeper level!! For us girlies who have a hard time analyzing the complexity behind lyrics, you two are a godsend!!! I also think it's more fun to deep-dive because the details show just how much of a mastermind Taylor is 🤭 Thank you for all you do for us!! 🥰

mon

Girlies! A fun idea I have for a video is making your own “eras tour (___ version)” playlists! It’s a bit of a trend on TikTok right now and it would be SO ICONIC to see what you girls would want in the 44 songs!

Louise Sjömark

I just wanted to say that you guys are awesome and made me the swiftie that I am today. I was there for n3 and it was brilliant. Just one thing, you guys said the top was green, but it was blue. The jumbotrone made it look more green, but you could see irl that it was indeed blue. Like the Swedish flag is, blue and yellow. She also changed the lights on our wristbands during 1989 set to shift between blue and yellow 😍☺️ Can't wait for what's next with you two. Keep being your awesome selves 🤗

Jessica

Did u ladies see that video where Ryan Reynolds is asked about his fav TTPD song and he says So Long London lol. That song and Fresh Out the Slammer Taylor mentions her friends’ opinions. I bet Ryan and Blake had shared their opinions of Joe. Most of her friends probably didn’t like him, which is why they all unfollowed him lol.

Sanya Sharma

I just wanted to say your long form content is the best!! The value and community you bring to us with your fathomings and reactions are simply unmatched!’ This space feels so authentic & I love that your content is so precious in how you react or fathom Taylor Swift albums - just wanted to say what you both do is amazing thank you always 🩷

Sanya Sharma

Sanya Sharma

Keep doing what you guys have been doing!! This community is so special and what you both bring is so superior illegal & unmatched 💙 I also love that this feels like such a safe space (sometimes tiktok can be quite overwhelming) - love you both!! 🩷🩷

Sanya Sharma

Taylor Swift one hour videos are the best!!! thank you for doing this style for us, ALWAYS 🤍

Mitch hansen

noooo you will never run out of style fuck tik tok i can and NEED to watch you two talk for an hour about one single taylor swift song because so can i so please never quit i need you guys hahaha

Sara

I am really excited for the day all the ttpd song videos come. And I actually think that all the TikTok videos will fade into irrelevance more easily. Because when someone searches for album and song reactions online, then they will more likely land on YouTube. But on TikTok there is so much content, that it is more easily to get overwhelmed and don’t have that much quality at the same time. And of course a lot of people like your videos because of your personalities 🩷

If the 1989 top is blue based on photos I’ve seen, I love that she wore the Sweden flag colours. It might be why she wore the blue Folklore dress the other night. The Evermore dresses don’t have the sleeves for the dramatic parts of the performances, which is probably why she’s not wearing them.

Mariana

Hey!! Portuguese swiftie here from Lisbon!! so excited for the next shows 🤩 our stadium is all red, so we are clowning for red as a surprise song 😏

skizzo

portuguese swiftie here too, but I'm from Porto. You should come visit!!

Eliza

Girls, trust me, you will never be part of the "reactor world" because you are so much more than that, hence the "CHATS and reacts". Referring to you guys as "reactors" ... that's like calling Taylor Swift just any "singer".

Cynthia Puzio

You both fathoming the opening of 'I Hate It Here' the way I do makes me feel seen. I can picture Taylor during the pandemic pestering Joe for prompts of something sad. 'Quick Quick Tell me something awful.' He comes back with a story about college lovers who break up tragically at a party. She goes to her secret garden and imagines the whole scenario and 'Champaign Problems' is born. Did he help by giving her the idea? Sure. Did he write it? No. But she gave him the credit just the same.

aubrey

I loved this chat! I recently was looking at bondi beach on google maps lol, I don't how or why lol, but I feel like it encapsulates emily's aura so I can't believe it was just mentioned! Or, I've felt it somehow over the years of watching you guys. Anyway, lurvvved this trip back in time and I feel like it helps paint a picture of what we feel just by watching - what your experience has been even if you're not capturing a reaction. I loved the retro clip of emily too before lover.

Candice Rossi

I wish she’d bring back the no body no crime dress 😭

Brittany DeLara

I feel like I can say this because it’s not YouTube but in reference to getting the videos up quick and the pressure….dont sweat it. I’d rather wait and get your superior work then have it be rushed like a lot of the reactors. There’s a couple others that I do watch, but I just watch them when I’m bored or have time. I actually look forward to y’all specifically because of your vibes and energy and knowledge and friendship. Other people being quicker doesn’t replace that. Keep doing what feels good to you!

KC

I’m glad the girls are finally getting into the Black Dog! She’s 100% playing this song in London and I hope the girls get tickets and get to witness it live 😍 I think I fully started to fathom this song after listening to the starting line after realising it was actually a band and how iconically early 2000s they sound - having never listened to them but then having that same nostalgia for that period of music makes the song hit different 🤩

Mary Cousins

Omg has anyone else looked up the marvel character Dazzler. She’s been in the comic since 1979 and her character name is Alison Blaire. Taylor’s middle name 🤩 And her special powers are singing, dancing and ability to convert sound into light of various forms. Hope Taylor plays her in the Marvel movies. 🍿

Belle Murray

She performed Message In A Bottle night 2 in Seattle! But still, the medley and max shout-out were so iconic 😍

Victoria

and the max martin songs on red TV as well! He must not have been available when she worked on the rest of 1989

alex

They talked about them in their personal q&a here on Patreon!

alex

I thought the same thing Joe! And honestly I think a lot of other producers would more likely do something new than go back to old work. Especially if he’s not deeply connected to the reason why she’s doing it

Hannah

I Friends arena is not huge compared to other venues but it’s really and open air field usually. The Swedish Security Service had has set the threat level to a 4 out of 5 currently so the roof of the venue was closed to prevent terrorists to use drones to drop bombs. Or what do you define as a stadium? ”Stadiums are open-air construction that feature tiered seating around a sports field or stage. They have no permanent roof or walls. Arenas, in contrast, are closed to the elements.”

alex

Commenting on your talk after the reaction: 1. you’ll never go out of style because we love the long format content and i will always prefer you guys taking your time and then starting breaking down the album! 2. this process of deeply connecting to the album and fathoming it has just started for me so how could I possibly expect you guys to immediately have it all together (and this will be the reality for a lot of people in this community) 3. we love everything you do guys so just stay true to yourself and don’t pressure yourself too much 🫶🏼

Megs

I love the moment, Bonny, when you're talking about your moment with Reputation. That's me with TTPD; I had never fully fathomed an entire album before TTPD (baby swiftie over here), but it has completely changed my brain chemistry and altered my personality, and my husband is like... who are you? hahahahha he's obviously supportive, but my OCD took over and I just don't listen to anything else anymore haha

Marion

In France it was an Arena because of how close it was to the Olympic Games in Paris this summer... She could have easily done Stade de France (80 000) but because of the Olympics, they needed the stadium for something else, or like prepare it...

Jessikah

I’m sure you’ve fathomed it by now but all the blue seems to be for the Swedish flag, especially the blue/yellow combos

Wilma Harrysson

All three nights in Sweden were unbelievably incredible!! I just wanted to chime in and say that I interpret the line "My beloved ghost and me, sitting in a tree D-Y-I-N-G" as her (Swedish!!!) ghost writing name Nils Sjöberg. Like every writer part in her is dying, she can not write any more lyrics because she feel dead inside because of this situation. This may just be clownery but I think it's a poetic way of listening to this song.

CK

So as a past set designer and prop maker for theater, I can confirm that shows have a manager who is in charge of calling cues for the whole team. They have the show bible in front of them and are reading in each department. Projections are being counted in, lights, pyro, the band, the dancers, the set team back stage. This is the voice we hear in ICDIWABH. In addition there is a team in a booth who will be in charge of live mixing the music, insuring that the mics are working the amps are working, there is a runner who will be following directions to correct any issues the booth finds. Ie. Taylor’s in ears. Her battery pack is probably being changed several times during quick changes by the runner as well. Throughout the show there are multiple people looking at Taylor so they can call the next cue, make the next mic live, call in the set dressers and the back stage crew to move.

Ash

Bonnie as someone who watched your vlogs back in your vegan days when you lived with Tim, it’s like worlds colliding hearing you mention him here lol. I forget I’m watching the same person sometimes all these years later 🫶🏻

S ✨

In terms of your first reaction videos and pausing and not being able to fully connect with the songs if you’re not listening to it in full - please don’t feel like you have to pause and chat during songs for our sake! We would love to see you listen and connect and then analyze the song afterwards (if that’s what you want - we enjoy your videos regardless obv). Love and appreciate your content so much!

Kajsa

Funny fact about arena/stadium thing! Sweden has stadiums, one in my hometown Gothenburg with a capacity of 75,000. Springsteen often plays there. But Stockholm attracts the most tourists and is easier for people from abroad to get to, I think✨

Megan C

same here 🤍

Madison Sturdevant

Agreed!!! Sometimes I wish they didn't pause cause hearing how the song moves from one part to the next is so exciting on first listen and I want them to get to experience that!!! haha. <3

Erika Hutchcraft

Reference coming back for the re-records, we are not privy to the producers contracts themselves and who else they are contractually obligated to. You have to balance your respect and your rights and who you have working relationships with. They work with other people not just Taylor…meaning they might work with Borschetta and Braun and others too on different projects, not that they are picking these guys over Taylor but that they might have to stay more neutral … And there is nothing wrong with that.

polyjoon

omggg emily talking about downloading debut off limewire is SO RELATABLE because that's exactly what I did too 😭 i've been a fan since literally tim mcgraw but seriously that first album went STRAIGHT to my ipod from limewire :') <3

Emma Cooley

I’ve been a patron for a long time and don’t comment often but really just felt compelled to pop in to say - your chat on the pressure to break down songs quickly and fear people will lose interest in your long form content really hit a nerve for me on something that’s been bothering me about the toxic side of swifties online and social media in general. The way that y’all take your time and really listen to the album before doing breakdowns is one of my favorite things about your channel. I honestly get overwhelmed too and a bit frustrated when I see 2 min breakdowns or lyric theories from people so soon after an album comes out. I think it perpetuates this stereotype that swifties are only interested in the music to obsess over who a song is about as fast as possible and being the first to be “right” about a lyric or notice an Easter egg, and the comment sections on those videos are so hostile a lot of the time since other fans may get defensive or haters see it as a golden opportunity to put swifties down. I have so many thoughts on this and am trying to not be long-winded, but hearing your intentions to keep slowing things down for your channel is such a relief for me. Your videos are so clearly for the love of the music and not for the views, the views come naturally because you it’s obvious you’re having authentic conversations and not performing or riling up the fandom on purpose to get engagement, which is so comforting to me and the easily-overwhelmed-swiftie community ❤️❤️

Carol

As a new patreon I’m slowly working through these videos. But just wanted to add to the convo that I’m here for the quality of your videos, not the quantity. I’m so happy to wait longer to receive one of your videos ❤️

kayla ramoutar

i'd be really interested to watch your reactions where you listen to the song all the way through! it seems like you both prefer that and i think it would be a cool watching experience!!

Julia Kahrs

i'm swedish and yes max martin is a national icon🤭

Gina Bina

When you were talking about her potentially giving more credit to Joe - I often wonder if she has given him credit for things he said that she latched onto and made lyrics from. Like in Sweet Nothing.

Sarah Cummings

Em’s boyfriend is iconic at this point

Evangeline

She did perform message in a bottle for my show seattle night 2 so I think this is her second time performing it live! 🥰

Kate Harney

She has such a supportive boyfriend! He just wants to be a part of the fun

Emmie

Oh trust me, swedes do know about shellback and max martin. I actually think the generall swede would think max martin wrote many songs FOR taylor. Not that he co-wrote them with her. But I would say that she is not played that much in mainstream media over here.

Emmie

Max was with his family in a box. They walked past us with his security when everyone was exiting the arena. I freaked out lol

Breezy Bumbles

Speaking as someone who discovered the whole concept of reaction videos when TTPD was released (I am old), and someone who only used YouTube to look up specific things, you guys are actually the best! Over the past year, I have been obsessed with watching reaction videos for all the years I missed. I’ve watched anyone and everyone talk about Taylor (and other artists) and I must have seen hundreds of videos. Out of all of the people I watched, there are just a handful of people that I still follow and Chats & Reacts is by far the best channel to exist! I love long videos. The longer the better so I will always be among your loyal followers in whatever you decide to do in the future.

Hannah

Omg rewatching this and I just have to say I love your trust in Taylor but Schellback and Max Martin working together was not a ”Taylor liking him thing”. ’Max’ took Schellback in as his prodigy the way Denniz Pop did for Max before. Schellback and Max spent years together even before Schellback had writing credits.

elli

Yessss and Max said in an interview that he brought in Shellback because he likes to do some wacky things and Max thought it would be good if Taylor’s songs could have something’s that make them stand out. For example, Shellback was behind the “we-EEE” in We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together. Omg I could talk about Max Martin for hours lmao.

elli

Yeah, I think what Taylor meant was that Max always wanted to hear the song live, but that hadn’t happened until that night, not that she had never played it.

Hannah

Haha fair, he’s a living legend

Kate Harney

Heart if you’re here after The Life Of A Showgirl announcement!

Kate Harney

Might work together again… oh you girls are good

daniel

The way they were probably in the studio together already at this point

Jaana

Watching this back after the Show Girl announcement and everything we know about it from the New Heights podcast is wild. We really didn’t know anything… To think she was jetting back and forth to Sweden almost all of the Eras summer? My mind is blown!

Brittany Diamond

They were in the studio pretty immediately after this, since this was the night she asked Max to make TS12 with her. The fact that we know a detail like this is WILD to my brain.

JC

Yes just rewatching this as a historic night in the making of The Life of a Showgirl!!

Shannon Shaheen

Rewatching all these reactions and just loveddddd this lil chatty hearing your back stories on how you found Taylor! ❤️

Kate

Oh my gosh my most vivid memory as a Taylor Swift fan was when Speak Now dropped and I got to Dear John without even a thought really for what it could be about because I definitely didn’t know the track names ahead of time or anything but when it started and I first heard that distinctive John Mayer ‘sound’ and I just freaked out in the car on my lonesome going oh my god this is sooo about John Mayer. And I still get that same feeling today when something in a song just immediately falls into place and you might instantly fathom what a song is about, and I think that’s why I relate to you both so much because you’re both still reacting like I do and did back then and there’s just something so special about that 💜

Kate

And I am from South Africa and I felt like NO ONE cared about Taylor Swift back then and I was so shy about being a fan for such a long time. People thought I was crazy loving everything she made. It was only when I moved to the UK and didn’t get tickets to Red because I’d only just moved and it was so expensive to fly and stay in a hotel etc, and to be honest I was that shy still about being a super fan, (and it was the first concert I could have got tickets for since she’d never obviously been to SA) that I swore I would never miss the opportunity to see her live ever again and I haven’t 🥰

Cait13

25:00 "she cant get to swedan" 😂 she was flying the jet there every week while we didn't notice

Diana

I know its 2 years later but I have to say that YES, we swedes love Max and Shellback 🤘🇸🇪
