Ava Jeffs

in ranking album opening and closing LYRICS I do believe evermore would have to be at the top of the list for closing…..also my official petition for this video 👀

Ysabel Boquiren

Pippa

we are BLESSED! a superior album 🙌

Rachel P.

Omg I was just listening to evermore and coming to terms with the fact that it is still my very favorite Taylor album. I thought for a minute there TTPD would beat it out, but evermore still holds my heart.

Katie LaFave

here's the thing though, we knew from day 1 with evermore that there would be some songs about her life because of what we had fathomed with folklore being about losing her masters!! like we knew right away that willow was about joe and that it's time to go was about karlie kloss, scooter, and scott!!

Juliana Martinez

also are you guys reacting to the selena album? or the eternal sunshine deluxe tracks that just dropped?

Susie

Yea seconded!

Susie

A blessed day 🤎

CamerynRae

oh HELL YES I am so excited to watch this while doing my dishes!!!! (your videos are what gets me to do the dishes, the only thing that makes…dare I say…tolerate it)

Ethan Nguyen

the way the evermore guitar got restocked in the middle of me watching this… chats&reacts not beating the tayvoodoo allegations 😟

Megan C

Omgggggg what a gift! Can't wait to watch!!

Katie K

Omg this has absolutely made my week!!! Evermoreeeeeee 🤎🤎🤎😭

Katie LaFave

it's so funny hearing you guys talk about i think he knows and karma cuz for me those songs were in my top 5 on first listen and they still are in my top 5!!

chel

oh my god yesssssssssss

Valerie

y'all talking about the cars movie in an evermore video was not on my bingo card 😂 ty for this gift of a video!

Cammie Noel

i think abt the evermore reaction video every DAY.

Jasmin Mills

AHHH EVERMORE CONTENT🤎🤎🤎🤎

Katie LaFave

the bridge of tolerate it is "when you were out building other worlds where was i" & then the last chorus is "break free and leave us in ruins" it's the same melody as the other chorus!!!

Natalie

BONNYYYY???? THE OUTFIT? THE HAIR???? WHAT DO YOU MEAN

Natalie

omg yes please !!!

Amber

i feel like i am the only closure stan on this earth 😭

Martha

Wait I'm fathoming so much what Bonny said about Champagne Problems and Cowboy Like Me being linked... Like what if the girl from Champagne problems became jaded by love from that situation and so then goes on to become the girl from Cowboy Like Me who eventually falls in love with someone like her!?? 🤯 I've never thought of those two songs together before

Katie LaFave

yes obviously happiness has the most superior lyrics, but because it is such a slow song, it is lower on my evermore ranking

Jasmin Mills

wow this is so nostalgic! when you start talking about hearing champagne problems live i just think back to your evermore reaction and how we never knew if we would hear these songs live ahhh

Bailey

BONNIE!! That dress is so fabulous 😍😍😍😍

Katie LaFave

i get it ladies in fact i put dorothea in everybody wants you!!

Joe.with.a.Jay

Oh, how I just want a video of you two guys with Taylor. That would be so cool! Just a cozy video and talk about everything and nothing at the same time. Hope this will become reality someday. 🤎

noah

if evermore is your favorite taylor album, does that make it your favorite album of all time?

SharonM

Omg Bonny’s witchy hair! It’s amazing, it’s Florence, it’s everything!

Diamond

As an evermore girly, this is so important to me

Elle D

honestly offensive of you not putting gold rush in the literal 'everybody wants you' tier 😭

Martha

Same!! I love it!

Pippa

midas touch: champagne problems, tis the damn season, evermore, coney island, ivy everybody wants you: long story short, dorothea, rwylm, gold rush long story short it's a vibe: willow, tolerate it, marjorie, it's time to go, cowboy like me, nbnc I'll tolerate it: happiness, closure Please do tier ranking videos for all her albums I adore doing it along with you!

Lindsay

BONNIE YOUR OUTFIT 🤎 The witchy vibessssss

Regina

Justice for closure!!!!! I feel like I’m the only closure stan in the world 😭

Anna K

I don’t know what it is but the floating heads are giving me Brady Bunch energy today. 😆 I also want to applaud your bravery for this ranking because I could never.

Eric Camulli

Emily: perfect top. Perfect hair. Love that length

Sophie kelly

She didn’t play hoax,epiphany and peace in full either😭

Astoria

The Patreon content lately belongs in Midas touch tier 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Katie LaFave

well my sister is 34 and she got married in 2017 to her college boyfriend!! my other sister is 25 and is getting married this summer to a guy she's been with since she was 17!!!

Jackie Weiss

Regarding evermore needing to lean on folklore - it reminds me of the anthology leaning on TTPD main or even Midnights 3 am tracks. I find it interesting that after folklore/evermore, both new albums had “sisters” and Taylor said something about enjoying sharing more with evermore when she dropped Anthology. We think of 3am and Anthology as more connected to the main albums than evermore to folklore, but I think it’s a really similar concept

Nat 🌸🌺

OMG I love this video! here's my top tier list!! 😍 *midas touch: cowboy like me, 'tis the damn season, ivy, long story short *everybody wants you: goldrush, evermore, happiness, willow, champagne problems, *long story short its a vibe: coney island, no body no crime, tolerate it, marjorie, right were you left me, It's time to go *I'll tolerate it: dorothea, closure

SharonM

Love the ranking titles

Katie LaFave

my top 5 are: 1. right where you left me 2. tis the damn season 3. champagne problems 4. cowboy like me 5. evermore

Natalie

the radiator springs reference in cars had me on the floor 💀

Cathrine Ahm

I feel so blessed that I got the Happiness mashup, bc YES that song is a masterpiece 🥹🫶🏼

Gemma

I think my top 5 are Evermore, Long Story Short, Champagne Problems, Coney Island and Ivy 🤎

paulina ⭐️

I feel called out 😂 as a person who’s evermore ranking starts with: 1️⃣ tis the damn season 2️⃣ closure so Girls, I cater for your needs 😂🫡 ttds: I can’t give one specific reason but Bonny was on it: it’s a rant, it’s a bridge, it’s a flow. this song forces me to gesticulate every emotion even if i don’t relate. it’s driven so smoothly and delicately but somehow so intensely that not relating to it is suddenly irrelevant, that’s how good she is at painting and delivering scenery here. it’s one of those songs where simplicity makes it perfect. without big words big metaphors but still very ambitious and more eloquent than anything. that what it does for me 😩 defending closure in this fandom since day one was one of the biggest challenges of my lifetime I might be the weirdest person for that but this song is such a gag. relatable on every level. it’s about taking over the narrative. putting someone in the place when they feel too big of themselves and you need to humble them a little bit even if it’s against your real feelings. it’s for girls who feel the most but try to act nonchalant just to feel we have some power over that pain and disappointment 💪🏼 my rankings are always so different than yours, I absolutely love it 😆🤎

Alyssa Thomas

Closure is one of my FAVORITE Taylor songs ever. I cannot understand how the majority of people dislike it.

chel

my current (emphasis on current) top 5 on this album: evermore, its time to go, coney island, ivy and cowboy like me. Honourable mentions are gold rush, happiness, champagne problems, tis the damn season and pretty much the rest of the album hahaha

paulina ⭐️

i know it’s painful to witness but i’m here with you soldier. if closure doesn’t have any stans, we are dead 🫡

Danny Slattery

It feels impossible for me to try and rank any of Taylor's song or albums. With evermore, I find that my consistent top three in my mind would be -- cowboy like me, closure and ivy.

lana del gay

evermore ranking 1. dorothea (i am a dorothea stan, and proud of it!) 2. champagne problems 3. coney island 4. willow 5. tis the damn season 6. cowboy like me 7. happiness 8. ivy 9. right where you left me 10. tolerate it 11. marjorie 12. evermore 13. gold rush 14. it's time to go 15. long story short 16. no body, no crime 17. closure

chel

omg how can i forget my baby tolerate it she would 100% be number 6 for me 'i made you my temple my mural my sky, now im begging for footnotes in the story of your life' HELP SO GOOD

Sarah

Evermore!!! YES PLEASE, much needed !!Thank you so much for deciding to dive backk! I am so excited for the upcoming videos :D Loved the vibe of this one too! personal ranking (that's everchanging of course): 1. midas touch: champagne problems, tolerate it, ivy, coney island, evermore 2. everybody wants you: Tis the damn season, it's time to go, cowboy like me, Long story short, right where you left me, marjorie, willow 3.long story short it's a vibe: Happiness, no body no crime, gold rush, dorothea 4.I'll tolerate it: Closure

Elle D

1. cowboy like me 2. right where you left me 3. ivy 4. long story short 5. its time to go. honorable mention: marjorie + gold rush. But it honestly is all top, evermore is my favourite Taylor album. The only one I could even consider going in the ‘tolerate it’ tier is closure too, so sorry closure stans 😭 Just to go on about cowboy like me for a sec but we need to be constantly holding space for “with your boots beneath my bed, forever is the sweetest con” at the end of the song like, I’m never okay when that part of the song comes up and wraps the story up. It’s such a beautiful, fitting end to the story in cowboy like me that isn’t quite a fairytale happily ever after, but it is so appropriate for the story/characters she builds in cowboy. I could rank all of evermore but I genuinely think id be here all day lol.

Vera

Adored this video 🥹🫶🏻 Top 5 on evermore for me 1. cowboy like me 2. gold rush 3. evermore 4. coney island 5. it's time to go

Jenny MacRunnel

I LOVE this! I haven't listened to Evermore in a little bit, I think I will be listening tonight! My ranking for everything Taylor changes a lot but my top 5 Evermore tracks (that don't usually change): 1. Cowboy Like Me 2. Ivy 3. Champagne Problems 4. Evermore 5. Tis the Damn Season But after that, its like most of them tie for the same spot, and it just depends on my mood: Coney Island, Happiness, Dorothea, Willow, Its Time to Go, Right Where You Left Me, Long Story Short, Marjorie, No Body No Crime, and Tolerate It all are #6 to me haha! The ones I don't listen to a ton are Closure and Gold Rush. I used to always skip Closure, until she played it on the tour, and now I do appreciate it a lot more. Emily, fair on Tolerate It, it has a completely different beat mapping so for us that listen to pop a lot, its not the easiest for our brains to like. For some reason, I LOVE the sound of this song myself, but I get why not everyone would. And how you described Tolerate It--thank you for that, that's exactly how I try to explain my feelings for So Long London, but I've never been able to word it that well.

Liz

the its time to go conversation really struck something in me. always been obsessed with the messaging of the song, but hearing this after reading the prologue and her talk about how evermore was created by looking back at the folklore woods and deciding whether or not to dive deeper. its time to go is the official last song of not only evermore as an album, but folkmore as an era. its her moving forward knowing she has herself and is healed enough to leave the pain of the stolen albums etc in the past and that its time to go, leave the woods, into what comes next 😭😭 wow.

Athea Is A Blue Pikmin

Ohmygosh I love dorothea definitely one of my faves from the album maybe top 5, certainly underrated! Also yes happiness is under appreciated for how beautiful of a message it has! This is my favorite album

Jenn Hamel

Oh SHIT getting hit in the evermore feels was not on my schedule for this week, I might need to take some emergency leave from work, cowboy like me and Coney Island EXIST and it’s borderline illegal that they are on the same album, goodbye it’s time to vomit

Jenny MacRunnel

Right? I loved that, that part of the movie makes me sob like a baby..its so sad!

Jamie Gibson

I just know if I had evermore while in my previous relationship I would have left 2-3 years before the relationship ended. I am for evermore tossing up between TTPD The Anthology, Reputation and evermore for my favourite album. Folklore is 100% better album, but evermore 1000% has the better songs. I will actually die on this hill

Anna Lena

Evermore isssss that Bitch I love Evermore with everything I have. It’s so comforting and feels like home. Also it’s time to go was my secret song and I have never cried that much in public 😂 Could never rank these absolute perfect songs - but ivy will ALWAYS be number 1

First Encounter—A Historical Romance Podcast

I write historical romance and I have a story idea that begins where Right Where You Left Me meets Peter. What happens when the heroine stands up from the table, turns out the light, and leaves the restaurant, because he's never going to grow up and return to her. She'll start to live again, find someone new, and be healed by a second chance for love in her life. I can't wait to write it!

Chats & Reacts

Yesssss omg we DEEPLY need to go back and do the OGs!

Chats & Reacts

Oh bestie trust me it’s constantly on our minds, we are just trying to find the right moment and the right album to do next!

Katie LaFave

maybe lover!!! since the only lover video on your yt channel is your first video!! we here on pateron know how much you love lover, but you need to defend it to the public 😂

ELIJAH HATCH

I’ve always seen tolerate it as her experience with society/the media. To keep using her best colors, she still remained just “tolerated.” Not saying this is the case, but it helped me better connect with it in so many ways.

Honey

I’m 31 seconds in and THE AESTHETICS!!! The outfits, the hair, the background, it’s so perfect it’s hurting my eyes omg 😭 thank you ladies, I’m so excited for this one 🤎

Katie LaFave

also once taylor announces debut and rep tv that will be a perfect time to do those!!

Derick

Look what you came for?🤣

nikki

My evermore Midas touch picks: ivy (I mean hello) right where you left me champagne problems long story short cowboy like me or evermore could easily slide into that fifth spot depending on the day/mood.

Rachel

Omg! cannot wait for this one, what an absolute blessing!

Athea Is A Blue Pikmin

So before I state everything of my ranking, I’ll just say that all these songs would probably be in my top 50 of all her songs if I took the time to individually rank them as, when I do song sorters it ends up off for me 1. right where you left me (my favorite song ever) 2. tolerate it 3. ivy 4. happiness 5. dorothea 6. it’s time to go 7. cowboy like me 8. gold rush 9. marjorie 10. ttds 11. champagne problems 12. coney island 13. long story short 14. evermore 15. closure 16. no body, no crime 17. willow (despite last place it still is my second favorite opening track, only after State of Grace!)

💯

Evermore!?!?!? Yes please!

Jason

"Honey the kitchen is on fire!" 🔥 Cut to me in my room with my headphones watching my favourite TV show.

Hayden Brice

I'm only like 5 mins in, but here to protest that it is evermore season!! It's autumn, it's starting to get cold, and evermore is a chilly album!! We Aussies are backwards and that's okay

Emily Hopkins

My top 5 ranking- Cowboy like me, Tis The Damn Season, Coney Island, Tolerate it, Ivy. Also side note about Closure- she grew for me once I also realised how genius it is that it's machine sounds because the song is about her fighting the label/Scott everytime she finds her voice the machine tries to ruin it/ tries to sabotage and in the end there is just peace because she walked away ❤️

sofie sandrini

omg, my fave album!!!! I discovered you guys through Evermore <3 so speacial

Lefty

You beautiful chickens…I don’t even have time to watch this right now but this is a lovely surprise. Love you guys and your videos so much!

Ang ⋆｡°✩

I think about this every time you upload... but what would i DO without this content???? i can't imagine being a Swiftie without you guys <3

Sophie

Top tier: champagne problems, TTDS, tolerate it, ivy, evermore, RWYLM Great but not top tier: willow, gold rush, NBNC, happiness, Dorothea, cowboy like me, long story short Mid tier: Marjorie, closure Bad tier: Coney island, it's time to go (sorry girlies 🤣)

Veronica Key

Emily I love that you brought up Cars. That’s so random but I literally love cars so much. It’s so sad that Radiator Springs used to be a vibrant town but then it lost of it because no one drove through it anymore. The way you connected that to Coney Island made me realize how good Coney Island is. I never cared much for it but I think I finally just had a moment with it and now I think I love it. Cars really do be changing lives 😂

maya zutra

A new Mumford& sons album and an Evermore video, don’t know how it gets better than that

Ally ❤️

dorothea is my “Emily tolerate it”. I’m that girlie who just can’t vibe with the melody. The lyrics are incredible, but it is not for me. The Eras at our performance of tolerate it was so elite.

Ally ❤️

That said - I consider you two the evermore experts. It’s been so good to listen in on a Friday evening

Sarah

When Taylor referred to one off eras in the prologue, was this the first time she had referred to her album cycles as eras? I know we take it for granted now but I wonder if this could be the first time.

Ruby

I have yet to fathom evermore in its entirety because I was so stuck on folklore during that time and just not ready for the healing energy. then she just smacked us across the face with red tv and midnights, so I really should fathom 😂 that being said, ivy is the most superior song ever written, marjorie rips me apart and puts me together, tolerate it made me not tolerate shit anymore and the bonus tracks have me going back and forth because sometimes I am right where you left me, but fuck yeah, it’s time to go, but also tis the dann season, so I will give you a call like?! yeah, lots to fathom for the others tho..

Jennifer Kingsley

my top 5 ranking 1. Evermore 2. Cowboy like me 3. Champagne Problems 4. Tis the damn season 5. Coney Island

Tefi Riveros

Is a favorite album the one that contains the most favorite songs (quantity) or the one that has the songs you love the most ala your faves of all time (quality)? 🤔

Kristen

evermore??? in 2025??? i’m so happy 🥹 what a lovely surprise

Maddy Stephens

SO GLAD I FOUND MY MUMFORD AND SONS PEOPLE!!! I would love the girls to react to this album!!

Maddy Stephens

The vibe, the aesthetic, the outfits, the lighting, evermore!??? this video is perfect Evermore is my FAV album ever I’m obsessed

Maddy Stephens

Evermore is the perfect autumn album. Literally on a walk right now and Melbourne is a cloudy gloomy day and I’m obsessed this video couldn’t have been more perfect

sarah🩵

oh how i’ve dreamed of times like these! thanks angels! 👼💕

Maddy Stephens

My top 5: 1. Ivy 2. Long story short 3. Cowboy like me 4. Evermore 5. Right where you left me Honourable mention - it’s time to go & champagne problems 🤝

Susie

midas touch: Tolerate it, cowboy like me, evermore, champagne problems, tis the damn season everybody wants you: gold rush, marjorie, happiness, RWYLM long story short it's a vibe: willow, it's time to go, NBNC, Ivy, Coney Island, long story short I'll tolerate it: Dorothea, closure

Sarah

10000% agree with your feelings about Evermore (the song). If it were just Taylor singing that bridge on the studio version, it would be one of my top Taylor songs of her entire discography.

harriet!!!!!!!

omg so hard 1 tolerate it 2 ivy 3 cowboy like me 4 'tis the damn season 5 long story short 6 champagne problems 7 happiness 8 marjorie 9 evermore (feat. Bon Iver) 10 coney island (feat. The National) 11 right where you left me (bonus track) 12 dorothea 13 willow 14 it's time to go (bonus track) 15 gold rush 16 closure 17 no body, no crime (feat. Haim)

Caroline Turner

Thank you for this gorgeous gift - just what the girlies needed x

Erica

😍*Immediately starts looking up crescent moon necklaces*..! Where did you get that?!

Hayden Brice

Also in Melbourne and yes exactly!! The moody weather is exactly evermore's vibe

Florence Lambert

I need your videos like I need Evermore and that’s saying A LOT okayyyy

sofie sandrini

it's a rainy day in Sydney and this has to be the perfect combination with an Em and Bon EverMORE video. wondrous

Lively_Ash

BONNY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The HAIR & the DRESS!!!!!!!!!!! OFFENSIVE 💛💛💛💛💛🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶

lisa f

Now that I have watched the day in the life vlog, my appreciation of the vibe setting and outfit coordination in these videos is upleveled 😍 um hello with the brown taper candles

Tess7

Lol omg I hope the kitchen survived 🫶

sofie sandrini

have you seen that it doesn't say William Bowery anymore, it now says Joe Alwyn in the credits? I find that very weird.

Alexandra Bennett

EVERMORE CONTENT?! THIS IS THE BEST DAY EVERRRRRRR

Tess7

It’s always evermore season! What a wonderful surprise! Cowboy Like Me has always been a top song for me. It’s like False God on Lover…it’s so different from the rest of the album, just superior. I won’t list my whole ranking, but i do love Dorothea, Champagne Problems, RWYLM, LSS. All of these songs are offensive so the order changes daily lol Thank you for taking us back into the Patreon woods of evermore 😊🫶

Kim

Love this Evermore treat ♡

Wendy Davis

How about expanding the categories. I think one should be BEST USE OF A CURSE WORD.....BEST/MOST EFFECTIVE USE OF THE F WORD...etc. Her additions of these words are so precisely inserted into her songs that they might even deserve a full ranking of their own. Have fun!

Marisa

1) Tolerate It 2) Happiness 3) Cowboy Like Me 4) Ivy 5) Evermore But I have to say: justice for Closure! The entire song is in a bizarre time signature and all the instruments, including Taylor's melodies in some places, are clashing with each other. It sounds like the opposite of closure. That is part of the genius because the song is about how she doesn't need closure. In the verses when Taylor is really dragging him, she's not even singing in the same time signature as the music. But then when the choruses come on, she's matching the time signature. Do you know how musically smart she needs to be to make these choices? I insist that anyone who doesn't like this song still has not fathomed it! Can we please talk about Taylor's genius that she heard this track and decided to write something that thematically matched it? Looking at it through that lens, it's the Peace of this album.

Marisa

Oh and also, evermore is my favorite Taylor album and thank you so much for making this video! 🙌

Marisa

I am so happy that so many people love Cowboy Like Me, because it's in my top 10 of her entire discography along with Tolerate It and Happiness. Evermore is just that good. I think it's her only album that has three songs in my top 10.

Marisa

Tolerate It number one? Yesssssssssssss!

CRB

for me my midas touch are: ivy, tis the damn season, evermore, champagne problems!

Lively_Ash

STRAIGHT TO JAIL for those comments on tolerate it!!!!!!!!

Marisa

Mass respect for having closure that high. I feel that anyone who doesn't like it has yet to fathom it.

Marisa

Don't remind me. My 3 folklore stan songs. 😭

Rebecca

I literally have "long story short I survived" tattooed on me. Clearly my favourite album forever and evermore

Marisa

You are not the only one! I just left a long and ranting comment about it here. 🤣

Kaitie C

evermore (the song) is my number 1 😭😭😭😭 And I got it as a SS with Peter. Ask if I’m okay. I’m not.

Marisa

You're not! I'm really finding my people in this comment section!

Amber

closure stan here!!!!

Erika B

NOT RADIATOR SPRINGS 😂 I love your silly references

sofie sandrini

Emily healed something in my inner child with the Cars reference

Mex

it would take a lot of trust to write songs with someone new, and maybe taylor kept some of that vulnerability pulled back in the new relationship with aaron. by the time they got to the long pond sessions, she seemed quite comfortable and open with aaron, so maybe that's why she's a bit more forthcoming about the songs not all being "fictional" on evermore. thank you for this video. i was so excited when i saw the notification. it was like going back to an old friend

Annika 📍Melb, AU

My friend’s 7 year old (I went with them both to Era’s Tour) told me ‘tolerate it’ was her favourite song and I was concerned 🙈😂 (help how does a 7 year old relate to this song? 😭)

Ellandra

Ladies can you please react to the eternal sunshine deluxe tracks? xoxo

Jeebs

Evermore has been on repeat for me. Since the Era's Tour mashup with Peter I cannot stop listening to it! Something about "When I was shipwrecked, I thought of you" just hits my soul.

Stephen Smith

Coney Island, Evermore, Cowboy like me, Tis the damn season - CERTIFIED MIDAS TOUCH

Annika 📍Melb, AU

Not me commenting “put some respect on her name” for Cassandra in the last video, and then Emily saying it about dorothea in this one! 😂 Easter egg!

Carly

“Like a little shit cunt named James” ☠️☠️

Gina Gould

Girls! You just keep spoiling us and I’m HERE. FOR. IT!!!!

Shannon

Jaw dropped omgggg im so excited to watch!

sofie sandrini

TOP 5: 'tis the damn season > evermore > champagne problems > coney island

Taylor Bailey

OH MY GOD AN EVERMORE VIDEO YESSSS

Kellie Mahoney

I Think He Knows and Gold Rush are 2 of the best songs ever created, they are top 20

Ella Bassett

Like Bonny, rep and evermore will be my top tier albums always! 🤎🖤 So, naturally, long story short is deeply iconic in my mind. Evermore just might be the wisest of all albums as the narrators recognize the changing seasons of life and can conjure such empathy and understanding. They recognize the necessity of moving on for themselves and for others. The narrators of folklore songs are often living in their pain without recognizing a world after it. Many of our evermore loves know that their pain won’t be for evermore. My favorite examples of wise evermore narrators: "You’ll find the real thing instead. She’ll patch up your tapestry that I shred" "I haven’t met the new me yet, and I think she’ll give you that"... "They'll be happiness after you." I have closure ranked so high because I just love the juxtaposition of the different sounds and what they represent. I like to think that the rough instrumentals mimic “the wrinkle in your new life” or the unpleasant “situation that needs to be handled”. It feels like the noises are dissonant and clashing because that’s how the person Taylor is singing to is feeling and behaving. They are “reaching out across the sea”, or the chasm that they created in the first place. Closure embodies evermore as an album perfectly! It evokes the pain of an ending or loss like coney island but also holds the insight and wisdom of evermore and happiness. Love you! Rep, evermore, and simply being a Swiftie would not be the same without you! 🤎🖤 long story short ivy happiness champagne problems marjorie closure it’s time to go dorothea tolerate it evermore cowboy like me ‘tis the damn season willow right where you left me gold rush coney island no body, no crime

Peter Oldham

I desperately needed to re-enter my evermore era. Thank you girlies for this video!!! Ugh this is ALSO my favorite Taylor album and I just can’t even explain why it’s the VIBEZZZZZ

Amy Versprille

As someone who has been unlucky to have gone through the same thing Taylor did - it is a journey. You can’t get to the more comforting place of happiness until you go through the tolerate it phase first. You have to realize you deserve better than this and it takes time to have the courage to leave and I needed to hear her describe it so perfectly. You don’t want to relate with it. But if you do - trust me - she got it right!

Lynny Smith

Absolutely LIVING for the cars reference - superior film 🚘 Absolutely needing to have another moment with evermore after this - such a perfect album

Caroline

29:26 I did a double take HAHAHA. "A little shit cunt named James" said with such seriousness

Noor Sm

- cowboy like ME! - RWYLM I'm 23 and still inside my fantasy ✨ - cony island - Champagne problems - it's time to go

jessica t

CLOSURE IS MY NUMBER 2! Its cathartic, its angry, its beautiful, its the production, its the time signature. The sounds, the layers, it stops me in my tracks. I will be doing the dishes and i actually have to stop when this song comes on to just fathom the delightful chaos penetrating my ears. It's all consuming. "I can feel you smoothing me over." So devastating so relatable. But i see a lot of similarities between its production and most of Bon Ivers music and he's one of my all time favourite artists so this definitely tracks for me:)

This was sooooo hard 😭 HELP! 1. ivy 2. marjorie 3. champagne problems 4. evermore 5. long story short 6. coney island 7. happiness 8. willow 9. it’s time to go 10. right where you left me 11. tis the damn season 12. dorothea 13. cowboy like me (I thought this would be higher because of the girlies’ influence! Clearly I need to fathom!) 14. gold rush 15. tolerate it 16. no body, no crime 17. closure (I understand why it needs to sound like that but it is unpleasant to my earholes)

Bianca Doyle

Me and my husband are also Closure Stans! We can make a fan club of 3!

Marisa

Omg, I would not be okay either. I'm also not okay that I missed this by one night! I got YoYoK x Long Story Short on piano, so you'll never actually hear me complaining, good God. But Evermore x Peter? Pass away.

Charlotte Nixon

not the CARS reference! every time I think you guys couldn't be more funny and relatable

Kaitie C

I simply passed away missing yoyok x long story short by one night too, we balance each other out hahaha

Allie

We love to see ANYTHING EVERMORE

Amanda P

the tolerate it & right where you left me ranking hurts 😭 this is her fathoming so that she can let go & heal! also RWYLM is so relatable when you think of it in not just romantic context but a friendship or family relationship that ends but leaves a permanent mark! even if you’ve moved on, you can be brought back to the exact moment & feeling when things went wrong years later 🥺

Raneem

The validation I got from this video 💯💯💯 This video just makes me so happy as an evermore girlie. Like no one understands the love I have for this album, but specifically Coney Island and Happiness, which are top two on evermore for me. If I think about ranking the whole album though I will have a mental breakdown 🤣. I just know that these two have hit me on first listen and continue to do so. Absolutely offensive and illegal album. Cannot fathom a reality without it.

DeeAnne Herron

Crediting "William Bowrey" was Taylor's way of inadvertently and slyly paying palimony.

✨Bri✨

Loved entering the superior Evermore era again!! 1. Tolerate it 2. Right where you left me 3. Champagne problems 4. Ivy 5. Cowboy like me I can’t even explain it bc I’ve fortunately never related to tolerate it but when I listen to that song she makes me feeeeeel like I do. She makes me cry, she gives me chills, I cannot understand how she continues to make songs that are just literal feelings flowing into my ears. Help.

Ran

“Folklore is the tree, evermore is the leaves” Ah! I’ve never heard a more beautiful saying about Folkmore

Abhay

superior album what can i sayyyyy??? fav album for a reason

ChloeThePayne

this video was exactly what i needed today 🥰 evermore foreverrrrr, THE most superior!!!

anna

my ranking 🥂🍂🤎 ivy champagne problems right where you left me marjorie cowboy like me happiness long story short willow dorothea ‘tis the damn season gold rush tolerate it it’s time to go evermore coney island (i love the metaphor but not my fav sonically) no body no crime (fun but doesn’t pierce my soul you know) closure (i like the pettiness but i’m also petty towards the amount of times i’ve been alarmed by the start of this song)

matt

offensive album! my top 5 are happiness, evermore, cowboy like me, coney island and ivy (no specific order)

katie whomst

YES WE LOVE EVERMORE! how do you guys feel about thinking of selena's verses in 'call me when you break up' being her talking to taylor?

Nicole D

I slept on cowboy like me for sooo long, what was I THINKING?! And dorothea! evermore really just is the gift that keeps on giving.

Noah Dale

It's hard to rank this album cause it is my fav Taylor album too!! i think i have to go 1. ivy 2. cowboy like me 3. gold rush 4. coney island 5. happiness 6. evermore 7. closure 8. it's time to go 9. long story short 10. right where you left me 11. no body, no crime 12. champagne problems 13. tolerate it 14. willow 15. tis the damn season 16. dorothea 17. marjorie ......maybe idk they're all too superior, i also feel ill lol

Sam

“A little shit cunt named James” 💀🤣 But where is the lie?

Erin Corey

You guys may not survive the folklore prologue

Edith

I really agree with your thoughts on Right Where You Left Me. It’s 3rd from the bottom for me. I’ve seen a short film that pre-dates evermore with the exact same concept and when I heard this song it just didn’t move me and didn’t strike me as original. It’s vivid with its imagery and melodies and that’s about it. tis the damn season, ivy and evermore are my top 3 ❤️‍🔥 thanks for the video!

ella

Evermore is also my favorite TS album but Closure is #1 for me 😆 I may be the only person who holds that opinion

maya zutra

Folklore is my fav ts album maybe because I’m the youngest sibling and maybe if I was the eldest evermore would have been. Anyway this is my top 5 💘 1. Cowboy like me and then Chloe et al being my number 1 on ttpd just makes sense 2. Rwylm 3. Ivy And then Marjorie is growing every day she is number 4 5. It’s time to go ❤️‍🩹

lachdav

coney island is in my top 3 taylor songs of all time and i’m so glad that you both feel so passionately about it. it just hits so different to other songs. i was also there to see her play it in sydney with sabrina (and mashed up with white horse) and it was just something else.

P.R. Dayvonne

Damn, I'm so alone in the closure stan category haha :') Also I too prefer the taylor only evermore, but I do actually really like Justin's vocals here cuz their voices crash like the crashing of waves she's talking about. I also feel like his fighting over her voice helps make her tenderly-sang "youuuuuuuuuuuu were thereeee" stand out more.

Lou

Oh my gosh the Cars reference? I was not ready for that! ):)

Erinne Carey

Top 5 at the moment: 1. Coney Island 2. Champagne Problems 3. Ivy 4. Right Where You Left Me T. Long Story Short

maya zutra

No you’re so right closure is a vibe I love it and it deserves more love

Veronica Key

Midas touch: cowboy like me, evermore, ivy, champagne problems, right where you left me, happiness, time to go Everybody wants you: tolerate it, willow, no body no crime, Dorothea, Marjorie, Coney Island, Long story short it’s a vibe: gold rush, ttds, long story short I’ll tolerate it: closure

Lou

I briefly would like to say something in favor of "right where you left me" that maybe (?) is more real for gals & pals in their 20s. I never never thought of right where you left me as a break up song. I'm 24 now but when I was 23 the song was almost too hard for me to listen to bc I was in the thick of feeling left behind while all my friends start their lives, live their lifes in a better way, start careers or relationships. And I'm still there trying to figure it out, find "some perspective", frozen in time and still inside my fantasy (not thinking about how to earn a fckn living and pension) Can anybody relate?? :')

Leah Dorling

Ladiessss, I don’t understand the Tolerate It slander 😭 I think it has to be number one for me.. like it’s CRIMINALLY an offensive song “gain the weight of you then lose it, believe me I could do it”! Like WHAT, iconic! But honestly, tier ranking Evermore feels like a war crime, like how do we even 😂 thank you for the content besties! ❤️

JentaSarabia

why does ranking a ts album always feel so offensive (derogatory) and controversial 😭😭 anyway cowboy like me ivy right where you left me no body, no crime tolerate it closure willow evermore gold rush coney island long story short Marjorie champagne problems tis the damn season it's time to go dorothea happiness

JentaSarabia

the i can feel you smoothing me over part always gives me chills!!! i LOVE closure so much

JentaSarabia

i gasped when you talked about the two bonus tracks being about leaving or staying where you are because isn't that what she JUST said in the prologue about being at the edge of the woods 🤯

Mathieu

Yeah anyway all songs on this album are offensive but that's my ranking champagne problems right where you left me ivy long story short tis the damn season cowboy like me gold rush tolerate it it's time to go willow evermore happiness Marjorie coney island dorothea closure no body, no crime

Emily Hughes

not the “little shit cunt named James” and deadass Radiator Springs chat 💀😆 in a beautiful cosy autumn evermore video - you contain multitudes 🥲

Clive

My ranking is defintely not like everyone else. Ivy & Dorothea sit at the bottom My favourites are the first half of the album.

Jule

my top five are: 1. ivy 2. right where you left me 3. long story short 4. champagne problems 5. marjorie The discussion about the outro of ivy is SO REAL because it actually might be the most superior 45 seconds of music I’ve ever heard. I listen to ivy all the time and every single time I can’t believe how the ending to that song makes me feel. Thank you for this offensive video chickens and I’m lovingggg the evermore fits!!

Jenny

I hear such melodic similarities between happiness and long story short! Obv v different in pace but the 'now I'm right down in it all the years I've given' and 'fell from the pedestal right down the rabbit hole' are so similar to me! Makes me wonder if they're somehow connected..

Hannah

I’m only 16 mins in and I’ve only just learnt the stories behind the evermore songs I’ve listened to a thousand times. What would i do without you girls!

Bella

Omg

Bella

Coney Island is so superior and it took a while for me to fathom but now it just keeps climbing up my ranking !!

Jade

Just here to let you know that Tolerate It is definitely a superior song 🩷

Foxy_Tatty

Coney Island Cowboy like me Champagne problems Evermore Right where you left me (Hardest thing I’ve ever done in my life) Loved this video, especially since I had just rewatched your original breakdown. Thank you for the video ladies!

Jaana

You two are the I love hearing your thoughts and musings. Evermore is such a masterpiece but for me it’s very much tied to autumn or certain feelings that I don’t listen to it weekly. I also think it’s so emotionally mature that some people just can’t grasp it and that’s one of the reasons it’s left in the shadow of Folklore.

Bella

This is a really good point

Marisa

Closure isn't number one for me but I love it so much and I can't stand all the hate for it. 😭

Caroline Turner

Jade

Greedy Me: give us all the tier rankings and refathomings, please!

Maren

It's time to go was my most played song for two years in a row and I think that says everything about how ESSENTIAL that song is.

Rita C

PLEASE REACT TO LUCY DACUS NEW ABUM

alex

So my all time favorite will always be Coney Island. I will never get over this song 🥹 My top 5 right now are 1. Coney Island 2. long story short 3. ivy 4. champagne problems 5. willow But my bottom two always change.. like last year I had the biggest phase with right where you left me and now it dropped quite a bit. But this just shows that this album is so superior every song could make the top 5✨🪐

Ileana Isabel

MY BELOVED EVERMORE 🥹🥹🥹 I feel the same way about evermore (the song) as bonny feels about dorothea, like I need to be loud about my love for evermore because everyone is always exile exile exile! and I'm just like evermore exists toooooo and she's so beautiful and healing !!!🙈🙈

Dany Rv

OMG JUST HAD TO STOP BEFORE THE FIRST MINUTE BECAUSE BONNY ISSSSS EVERMORE!!

Gina Gould

I didn’t really fathom or appreciate Happiness until I realized it was a metaphor for the whole Scott/Label situation. Then it killed me.

Parker McFarlin

I completely understand what youre saying with tolerate it but it is my top taylor song haha. i feel like the verses give me an uneasy almost anxious feeling but in a good way? like shes debating on what to do. to me, the melody feels emotional in a way i have never felt with any other song. i loveeeeeee it lol. it also came at a time that i needed it the most. i dont listen to it super often bc like em said, it brings back those feelings and sometimes im just not in the mood for that

Cat

Gold rush in the second to last tier is a tragedy. Coney Island is just not for me. but to each their own!

Carson McDonald

top 5 for me :) cowboy like me evermore right where you left me ivy willow

C

I love you both dearly, so I'm gonna hold your hand while I say this....Taylor was not thinking, let alone writing, about Matty Healy on folklore or evermore. Like I deeply need you to understand this bc it's actually what she told us in ttpd. I worry you might be misinterpreting some things and I don't want large swaths of the fandom to then be rewriting history and making folklore and evermore out to be about him when it's not. Taylor was not pining for Matty, she wasn't thinking about him until the very end of her relationship with Joe and she "swirled him into all of her poems" because she needed to rewrite the story so that leaving Joe to be with Matty would make sense to her. Because the love story of her and Joe being false and ending was too much for her to bear. Like Taylor herself was doing history revisionism to make what she was about to do make sense to her. <3 Cali

Marek Jeník

Cars reference… I loveeee it

Nele

i don't know about anything else.. i simply know that right where you left me and tolerate it are MY EVERYTHING 🤎

Ella

I totallyyy agree!! Tolerate It is one of my absolute favourites on Evermore!! ❤️

Madeline

Wait I am so extremely fucking up by the tolerate it, ivy, no body no crime connections from the prologue… the woman in the relationship has come to realize that the man doesn’t appreciate her (tolerate it), the women turns to infidelity to feel something again (ivy), uuuuh the man murders her for cheating (no body, no crime)…

Emily Haggard

I listened to each track before you guys talked about them, just a lovely way to start the weekend!! Thanks girlies! 🫶

Maddy

You guys the whole time watching this all I could think is the skin is ✨skinningggg✨

Madeline

I need y’all to know that I feel exactly the same way you feel about Dorothea, but about ROBIN

Meredith

She’s right where Matty left her and knows in her soul it’s time to go from Joe.

Meredith

Current ranking: 1. Cowboy Like Me 2. Coney Island 3. Ivy 4. Tolerate It 5. Evermore I always come back to Evermore after each new album. 🤎

Eirini

This is so fucking haaaard, I love evermore so much I actually need to go listen to it rn 😭 Top 5: tis the damn season, cowboy like me, right where you left me, it’s time to go, evermore Honourable mentions: Ivy and willow for being my favourite sonically (unfortunately they don’t speak to my soul like the ones above, and that is the only reason the don’t make it to the top 5) and happiness (for exactly the opposite reason 😅 it’s just too hard to listen to rn)

Eirini

She did write you’re losing me in 2021 though, that’s soooo long before they actually broke up… plus she also said “I keep these longing locked in lower case inside a vault”! What do you make of this if that’s not what she meant? Genuine question, I don’t mean it to seem harsh on a random internet comment, just really trying to see you pov

Linnea Steen

Top 5 :))) 1. Cowboy like me 2. Coney island 3. Tolerate it 4. Evermore 5. Ivy

Top 5: champagne problems, Marjorie, evermore, Dorothea, Coney Island 🤎

Scarlet 🌷🪩🇬🇧

This pained me but my top five are: 1. Tis the damn season 2. Coney Island 3. Marjorie 4. It’s time to go 5. Ivy :)))

C

Hi! Yeah so I don't think she meant the lowercase inside a vault lyric literally--which I think is part of the issue, for lack of a better word, that fans are having with seeing Matty as a muse for work pre-TTPD. I think some lyrics, like this one, are being misinterpreted because they're being taken too literally. Midnights, in Taylor's words, was inspired by 5 things--two of them being: falling out of love, and falling in love. You're Losing Me shows falling out of love, but songs like Lavender Haze, Paris, and Labyrinth ("thought the plane was going down, how'd you turn it right around" -> "then you squeeze my hand as I'm about to leave") show the falling back in love with Joe and trying to be hopeful that this relationship isn't actually doomed, and that they could make it through what she so desperately wanted to just be a rough patch. Thank you for asking such a genuine question! Always appreciate that on the internet <3

ellsbells

Ladiesss I think the reason you feel like tolerate it is structured weirdly/flows weirdly is because it's in 5/4 time signature - this is not very common in pop music, Taylor usually writes in 4/4 or occasionally 3/4. This means that there are 5 beats in each 'bar' of music rather than 4 beats in the bar. I think rhythmically the song is interesting- it sounds off and jilted because it is especially compared to other songs which are in more typical time signatures (the amounts of beats in a bar). I imagine Aaron sent her this track and she felt like it represented the rage of being jilted or betrayed by someone you loved, all of your personal rhythms and internal balance is thrown when you realise you have been betrayed (whether in a big acute event or over a long period of time). This is what it makes me think of anyway.

Edith

thank you for this info!!!

Laura carter

would love to see you guys do a tier ranking of 'stick season' and 'short n sweet'

Charlotte Irene

Wait…. With lyrics like “I’m like the water when your ship rolled in that night, rough on the surface but you cut though like a knife” and “Lost in your current like a priceless wine”???? Willow simply cannot be second tier ladies!!!! 😂 I think you maybe just have Eras tour fatigue and have heard it once too often that it lost a little of that witchy magic for you 😆😆😆

Maria

1. Ivy 2. Cowboy like me 3. Long story short 4. It’s time to go 5. Coney Island 🥰🥰

ellsbells

hope it makes sense!! as someone from a music theory background it's hard to explain time signatures in a written format... i think this post explains it really well https://www.reddit.com/r/TaylorSwift/comments/kwin7y/tolerate_it_music_theory_54_time/ but yeah i do think the reason tolerate it sounds so weird and the flow is off because of the 5/4 signature --- closure is also in this time signature. the only other song that i'm aware of in this time signature is From Eden by Hozier - there will defo be others out there but it's quite uncommon in pop music Because Aaron writes a lot of these tracks independently and Taylor writes the lyrics and melodies over the track (lots of songs on folklore evermore and TTPD were written this way) I think Aaron + Taylor songs tend to have the more funky time and key signatures - basically, they diverge more from her usual approach which is songwriting in 4/4 and the more obvious key signatures such as C Major, D Major, A minor, G major.

Charlotte Irene

Can we just talk about how the tempo of Cowboy Like Me feels JUST LIKE you are riding on the back of a horse that is slowly walking back to camp on a dusty trail as the sun sets after a long day of wrangling cows on the range??? It’s in the beat. You are riding a freaking horse in a melancholy Western film through this whole song!!!!! You are headed back to warm up a can of pork and beans and a mug of joe over the open campfire. The sonic genius of this kills me every time!!! Was this Aaron? Taylor? Both? I need to know 🥹

Emilia

justice for gold rush, my top song on this album haha

Charlotte Irene

The song Evermore… my husband thinks Justin’s presence is a jump scare 😆 but I think it’s necessary to depict the absolute tempest at sea that this song represents. Justin and Taylor’s voices swirling around each other in that bridge, crescendoing to the final “Out on waves I’m being tossed” is NEEDED to have that sweet resolution of Taylor’s gloriously delivered “You were there….” My heavens… top of the top tier for me 🌊🌊🌊

Jen Mays

Listening to your comments about Coney Island and the movie Cars and Radiator Springs...ladies, you NEED to listen to I Am A Town by Mary Chapin Carpenter. Please please.

Gabi

This was SO hard but here’s my ranking: Gold rush Ivy Willow Right where you left me Cowboy like me Evermore Tolerate it Dorothea Champagne problems No body no crime Long story short It’s time to go Marjorie Closure Happiness Tis the damn season Coney Island I’m not rly an evermore girly which you can probably tell from how unusual my ranking is LOL

skizzo

My favorites are Coney Island, Tolerate It and Tis The Damn Season, so we have very different rankings lol I actually dont get the Long Story Short love haha, it might be my least fav on the album tbh. Also Evermore the song, I decided I actually dont like Bon Iver on the track, there's something about the way he's singing on it that doesnt sound good to me.

skizzo

Bonny you're wrong about Happiness being the only songs from Folklore and Evermore she didnt play in full. She only played parts of Peace and Hoax too. And tbh, Tolerate It was never played in full either even when it was part of the set.

k80scorner

Witnessing Taylor solo sing evermore with my own eyeballs was actually life changing

Courtney A

I love when we have the same #1! Like y’all, from the moment I heard Ivy it was my favorite and same with August. Cowboy Like Me was a grower.. I didn’t fathom it till like a month after evermore was released and now it’s #2! Closure has grown for me too, I love the melodies. Like y’all said Evermore is the hardest album to rank for me, but here are my top 5: 1. Ivy 2. Cowboy Like Me 3. Tis the Season 4. Willow 5. Gold Rush

skizzo

I only fathomed It's Time To Go when she mashed it up on the Eras tour with Better Man, the melody of Better Man with It's Time To Go lyrics over it was so damn good, I want that version

skizzo

i feel like Ivy and Right Where You Left Me have some Matty undertones

skizzo

Taylor confirmed on tour that Cardigan was about Matty, so I dont think we know at all what songs are about him. Cowboy Like Me and Ivy definitely give me Matty vibes

Jen Mays

I absolutely feel like Bon Iver's part in Evermore is necessary for that build and the back and forth between them. His voice is the storm at sea, hers is the survivor fighting not to become overwhelmed by the waves, and the "you were there" is the lighthouse beacon that finds her and rescues her from the tempest. That's not to say that a version with just her wouldn't also be amazing, but I would want that as "an addition to" and not an "instead of" version.

skizzo

agreed, its my #2 song on the album

Amanda Saul

Tis the damn season is my number one especially since I’m from a small town haha it’s just so nostalgic for me. Also the opening guitar chords and the soft drumbeat underneath instantly soothes my soul and brings me into the world of the song

C

She said that during a manic phase. Context is important lol. Cardigan is not about Matty. She also stood in the rain and declared she was finally happy but we all knew she wasn't in a good place. Once again, she wanted these things to be true. She was desperate to come out of the end of a 6 year relationship unscathed. And for that to be possible, she tried to create a love story ("a con man sells a fool a get love quick scheme") where there wasn't one. TTPD (the song) is the only song we get about their actual relationship--aside from I can fix him--and it's very obviously not a love song. The illusion he sold her fades almost immediately. It's really all there in the album and she flat out tells us in the summation poem, it was a mutual manic phase--not a love affair.

Jenny

I think I mostly agree with this take yknow, it makes no sense to be so sure things are about someone when two years ago we were convinced they were about someone else, or fictional, or not about a lover at all, just bc she's given us a new album so we think we suddenly have all the info. We never have all the info 😂. She's a storyteller, I think nearly all of her songs have multiple muses, elements of fiction, elements of real situations, romantic and friendship influences (often all in one song). I also really don't believe the majority of her relationship with Joe was delusional, I truly believe they were in love and right for each other at a point in time. I rlly hope I don't annoy anyone with that take, just an opinion 😅.

Lison

the fact that I got tis the damn season as a surprise song and two days later I got dorothea makes them quite superior tbh<3

Jenny

Haha I love the idea of ranking her swearing songs, because I feel like some are so well timed and others I find so random and out of the blue (example: the bolter I find it strange but maroon is perfect lol)

C

I don't think the majority of her relationship with Joe was delusional either! That's another rewriting of history I've seen crop up, and I agree with you that they were in love and happy and right for each other at one point. There was definitely anxiety within the relationship and insecurities, but his private, normal life was a balm and a respite for her in 2016. Things just changed along the way, like most relationships do. But this is part of why I don't get how people think she was pining for him for ten years. The whole story of ttpd is that he popped up when she was vulnerable and in a bad place, used what info she gave him about her struggles with Joe to lure her (obviously she went willingly but you get my meaning) out of that relationship. She was in love with Joe and happy--even when things were bad, she was determined to make it work. She wasn't wondering what Matty Healy was up to lol And not at all! The only time a take will annoy me is when it feels like people are being dense on purpose but. Media literacy is hard for a lot of people these days

Lison

omg just had a fathoming in the middle of watching - you say that she does a lot of relating a place to joe and the nostalgia and losing a bigger thing. it's literally what she was afraid of in cornelia street... losing the place as well as the person

C

"She's a storyteller, I think nearly all of her songs have multiple muses, elements of fiction, elements of real situations, romantic and friendship influences (often all in one song)." Also forgot to mention that I totally agree with you here!! I think some people get confused because they get caught up trying to crack the code on who the muse is for any given song that they misinterpret the story she's trying to tell and the feelings being conveyed.

Jamie

oh this is your fave album?? 💜 awww intersting !

bella

EVERMORE LOVE ?? YESS

Lison

justice for closure!

Adolfo Ocadiz

OFFICER IT'S THIS ONE!! Wdym Coney Island last????!!?!?!?! Actually illegal.

dotty

peep the stick season vinyl in the back!! deeply needing to react to new noah music with you guys this year 🫡💝

Laura

Hi Ellie, thanks for this info!! Ooh since you have that background, could you let me know what time signature The Smallest Man is in? 🙏🏻🙏🏻

ellsbells

I’ve seen it be debated! Personally I am hearing 7/4 in the verses and choruses and then 4/4 from the bridge ‘were you sent by someone…’ til the end of the song but I don’t think I’ve ever seen sheet music for it - I am not 100% perfect at working it out.

kaitlyn

ok here's my ranking, I feel very ill doing this and I don't feel good about the songs at the bottom as this is my second fav album: (like wdym marjorie is 15th this isn't okayyyy) 1. evermore 2. ivy 3. cowboy like me 4. long story short 5. tolerate it 6. champagne problems 7. coney island 8. dorothea 9. tis the damn season 10. its time to go 12. right where you left me 13. happiness 14. no body no crime 15. marjorie 16. gold rush 17. closure

Ava Demassio

thank you so much for the cowboy like me appreciation, it is easily my favorite track on evermore and my second favorite taylor song of all time. has me in shambles every time I listen to it.

Sammi

Bahahaha “if you don’t like cars, go watch it” is so so real

rachel long

To me, tolerate it like… IS the folklore and evermore eras. She didn’t feels seen and she was feeling so confused and she thought about leaving and breaking free but because of 10 million reasons she just sat and watched him and tolerated it (not that Joe treated her SO bad but she just sat still and stayed)

Linda's World

After long and difficult thought on this matter… 5. no body no crime 4. tis the damn season 3. willow 2. tolerate it 1. champagne problems

Linda's World

Excellent point! Knowing what we now know, Joe is all over tolerate it the way Matty is all over cardigan. It’s the whole 20/20 hindsight thing. 🥺

Linda's World

That’s why I heard Cornelia Street vibes in So Long London. Different cities, of course, but never walking Cornelia Street again is like “I’m just mad as hell ‘cause I loved this place.”

Ella

The time signature for it on the sheet music I’ve got is alternating between 3/4 and 4/4 each bar up until the bridge, so I think you’re right and it’s equivalent to 7/4, just depends how you want to write it out! I think 3/4 + 4/4 helps indicate the emphasis of that chord change maybe? I love Taylor’s songs with more unusual time signatures, especially Tolerate It ❤️

Ella

I really do believe that a lot of previous songs including on folklore and evermore are partially about Matty, whether intentionally or not, I think it makes so much sense. A lot of the songs I had found confusing before suddenly make sense with the added context about Matty that we got on TTPD!

Ella

*my personal view on the meaning behind the songs is just my own though as of course none of us can ever know for sure what each song was about for Taylor, we can just theorise what makes most sense to us, and that’s ok! All that matters at the end of the day for each listener is what the song means to them personally, and that’s what makes music so magical ✨🥰

Mads

1. ivy 2. closure (tbh this is also no. 1, i think she’s so so perfect) 3. gold rush 4. champagne problems 5. cowboy like me

I've always thought of Bon Iver's part of the bridge to be the inner voice of anxiety, and Taylor's part is her trying to fight those thoughts. He's asking all the questions "can we just get a pause?" "Is there a line that I could just go cross" and by the end of it, Bon Iver's voice goes away and we're just left with Taylor saying "I swear you were there" like she defeated the anxious thoughts. So I do agree that it sounds like their voices are fighting, and Bon Iver is trying to be louder at first, but there's an intention behind that. Dare I say it's my #2 on the album. 🧡

WestonMacMom

Love you chickens so much! Y’all are amazing! Love your passion and the amount of thought you give to each song! 🤎

Love ya’lls rankings <3 personally mine would be: 1. ivy 2. cowboy like me 3. coney Island 4. evermore 5. gold rush (Off topic… but I NEED a breakdown of solar power lol)

Annie

Just here to say that I never fathomed Taylor Swift until I was listening to happiness and evermore after my divorce. This album changed my life!

Alisha

Hahaha Bonny calling the Calvin and Rhianna (Taylor) song “look what you came for” , I think we’re all more than ready for rep tv 😅

Cary

I feel we're on the same wavelength, my personal top 5 on evermore: 1)​ivy 2)evermore ​3)l​ong story short 4)cowboy like me 5)champagne problems so close! lol

Cary

So glad to return to the evermore era! looking forward to more content :) My personal top5: 1)​ivy 2)evermore ​3)l​ong story short 4)cowboy like me 5)champagne problems

sarah

hot take and sorry in advance but i actually feel that loml is sonically monotonous 😔 i tend to skip it because there's not much happening in the production to keep me entertained. it's definitely not a song for entertainment purposes though HAHA it's more of a sit and think to appreciate it

Sebastian

1. champagne problems 2. right where you left me 3. ivy 4. ‘tis the damn season 5. evermore

Annie930

Besties, just need to say that it might be hard to fully fathom Tis the Damn Season if you're not from a place that gets really cold around the holidays. The whole concept of traveling back somewhere that's friggin frigid when you're living somewhere warm like LA. And at the same time being confronted with your ghosts of the past is just such a specifically relatable feeling. Just saying ... I just feel like those of us who are from somewhere cold KNOW.

Karen Valentino

Evermore the song signals the turning the corner, the knowledge hope will be restored. It’s happened many times in my life in various ways, big and small. It’s perfect.

Jalen O’Grady

A LITTLE SHIT CUNT NAMED JAMES😭😭😭

Cara M

“Folklore is a better album but Evermore is better for us” is something I feel in my soul

Darya 🤍

I mean my home is a warm place and I relate deeply to the song. Even though it’s towards the bottom of my evermore ranking. I’m dorothea and I’ve had that one love back home

The evermore revisit is making me so happy!!! My favourite album. Thank you for this blessing girlies 🤎🥰

Katie K

Top 5 for me is: Long Story Short Ivy Cowboy Like Me Willow Champagne Problems

Julia Fisher

BONNY YOUR HAIR!!!!!! deeply superior

Julia Fisher

emily comparing coney island to radiator springs in cars…i will NEVER be the same my heart is SHATTERED

Nina

“It’s the kind of cold, fogs up windshield glass but I felt it when I past you” is one of my favorite lyrics of all time. Only someone who experiences frigid winters knows about the cold that fogs up windshield glass and every time I turn on my car to defrost in the morning I think of that lyric haha.

Julia Fisher

right now i cannot rank evermore because while the whole thing is superior (and i do prefer it to folklore) when i go to listen to it i am SO DRAWN to cowboy like me and it’s time to go that it’s like they exist on another level that nothing else can touch also love stick season being in the background it DEEPLY has evermore energy

Jamie

omg the song that evermore could have been without bon iver 😭 it really just throws me off every time. I am just crying and then he comes in and ruins it lol

Dany Rv

I can’t express in words how this video made me feel…like coming back home. I just have to say, TTPD is iconic, but I didn’t feel as connected to it as I did with albums like Midnights, Folkmore, and my forever iconic Rep. I don’t know, maybe it just wasn’t as relatable to me, or maybe it’s because I honestly can’t appreciate Matty even a little bit. But hearing you talk about Evermore brought me back to one of my most beloved eras. THANK YOU GUYS. I love you. 🍂🍂🍂🍂🍂🍂🍂🍂🍂

justine

i haven’t finished the video yet, but if you don’t mention it already please rewatch the apple music evermore interview! i did recently just for fun and felt like i saw so many clues for midnights and ttpd, it was a very interesting watch would love your interpretation!

Ali ❤️‍🔥

I have a complicated relationship with Marjorie bc it’s SO GOOD but the live version is so superior bc the backing vocals are so much more prominent and I wish she would have just turned them up in the studio version

Nele

It's time to go was my surprise song and she couldn't have picked a better song for me. It's my top 3 on evermore, top 11 overall and favorite closing track. Taylor Swift singing "You know when it's time to go and then you go, you just go" while an electric guitar is playing just does things to a girly!

Alexandra Bennett

Top 5 for me (I think lol): Cowboy like me Coney Island It’s time to go Ivy Tis the damn season

Mia Morgan

5. coney island 4. happiness 3. cowboy like me 2. marjorie 1. evermore 🍂

Geneva

Funny that you say Tolerate It feels odd in the tempo, Bonny, because that song is in 5/4 time! That's why it feels disjointed. I think it's an important factor of the song because it subconsciously illustrates how she's trying to fit a square into a round hole trying to make the horrible relationship work but listeners can't quite put their finger on it.

Gabrielė Rajauskaitė

I need a cowboy like me breakdown video! Loved this video, gonna go stream evermore the rest of the day

Kateynnnnn

A little sh*t c*nt named James made me lolllll Emily😂

Jess

Right where you left me has always been one of my absolute favs but when I started thinking about it more in terms of Taylor and her reputation and the world / media’s opinion of her instead of a regular break up song it made me fathom even more. Such an important song!

Quinta Oenema

is it just me or did your voices got deeper? haha

Hannah

This was everything I needed. Evermore is my favourite albums on the days I’m able to pick one. 1. Evermore 2. Tolerate it 3. Marjorie 4. Coney Island 5. Ivy

Lindsay

My initial reactions to Ivy and Cowboy Like Me were completely the opposite of yours... Cowboy Like Me was my instant fave and has only continued to grow but I never really fathomed how superior Ivy is until I discovered you chickens. <3 When I went to the Indy N2 show and we got Maroon/Cowboy Like Me mashup on the piano I was on the floor!

Ella

Here is my ranking! I’m happy with what’s in each category, but keep changing my mind on exact ordering. It’s too hard, I love them all too much! 🫠 Midas touch 1. evermore 2. tolerate it 3. champagne problems 4. right where you left me 5. marjorie 6. cowboy like me Everybody wants you 7. ivy 8. dorothea 9. ‘tis the damn season 10. gold rush 11. it’s time to go Long story short it’s a vibe 12. long story short 13. willow 14. no body, no crime 15. closure I’ll tolerate it 16. happiness 17. coney Island

Gustav Lucas

Just found out you're coming to Paris, DMed you about Haute Couture Week if you would like to come! ♡

Ella

Yes, this! I didn’t fathom how superior marjorie was when evermore came out (literally don’t know what I was thinking?!) and it wasn’t until I heard it on the eras tour that it clicked for me and hit me right to the core. I have loved it dearly ever since!

Laura

wow you guys really fucked me up with how the cover is her deciding to go back into the folklore forest....what !!?? my top 5: 1. Happiness 2. Tis the damn season 3. Evermore 4. Willow 5. Gold rush

Joseph Laurite

NEED more advocates for dorothea that song is so good. Evermore really is one of the best albums ever. It only gets better with time. My Midas touch ranking is probably: 1. long story short 2. cowboy like me 3. champagne problems 4. right where you left me 5. dorothea

Alice Woodfield

as someone who's favourite album is evermore...THANK YOU FOR THIS BESTIESSSSS!!!! love hearing you talk about this superior album once more... my top 5 are: ivy, cowboy like me, tis the damn season, tolerate it, long story short! SUPERIORRRRR

Linnea H

what a strange thing to say

Hannah

Oh I would love you to elaborate on this! Just that it’s underrated?

Heidi Muller

The noises in closure to me sounds like the workings of a big machine. Alluding to Bid Machine record label.

Madeline

Yeah like Bonnie mentioned about Dorothea for me when TTPD first came out I really liked Robin but then as time has gone on and I’ve seen so many people shitting on it I’ve started to love it even more. It’s only grown and grown for me as one of my favourites on TTPD.

Cassy

although i disagree with some of your other evermore opinions i will be forever grateful that you two stan dorothea as much as i do (or nearly as much, seeing as it's in midas touch category for me) you are so right that NO ONE appreciates this song. it has always and will always be in my top 3 of this album. thank you for always speaking so highly of it so I dont feel insane being the only one!!!

Maria GB

Evermore is so hard because folklore is a better album as a whole BUT evermore has the better individual songs so like lowkey when maybe every single song is Midas touch, how do you even begin to rank??! It’s so hard 😭

Amanda Christon

I can’t believe this year is the 5 year anniversary of these albums. Feels so fitting to revisit them this year! I also have a mental breakdown all the time that they exist and think about the time where we didn’t know about these songs😭

Jenny

So hard to rank as this is probably her best albums lyrically 1. marjorie 2. tolerate it 3. evermore 4. happiness 5. willow 6. ‘tis the damn season 7. gold rush 8. ivy 9. champagne problems 10. no body, no crime 11. cowboy like me 12. long story short 13. it’s time to go 14. right where you left me 15. coney island 16. closure 17. dorothea

Laura

As a mom of two boys, I did not have Emily recommending the movie Cars on my bingo card - I choked on my coffee, love it.

Ava Jeffs

thank GOD someone said what I’ve been feeling about evermore as a solo track….its still one of my favorites ever but I need a Taylor only version

Amanda Christon

Happiness and It’s time to go are DEEPLY underrated. Thank you for showing them love 🫶🏻

Rodrigo

this is the album I agree with you the most! ivy and cowboy like me are my favorites! happiness is so mature and underappreciated!

Hannah

I just cannot get on board with Long Story Short 😩 I hate the chorus, and the verses just do nothing for me. It gives me Gorgeous vibes, and I don’t like that song either 🥺

Juliana Martinez

it’s so interesting how your faves are my mid and my absolute faves, standouts are your mids 🥲🥲🥲

Nicole

"it gets colder and colder, as the sun goes down" is also kind of giving "just one hour of sunshine"

Cassy

my evermore ranking: midas touch: cowboy like me, right where you left me, dorothea, marjorie everybody wants you: tolerate it, gold rush, it’s time to go, evermore, happiness, coney island, ivy, willow & long story short long story short it’s a vibe: champagne problems, tis the damn season, no body no crime i’ll tolerate it: closure

Claire Williams

thank you for the cowboy like me appreciation!!! this was an immediate fav of our and no one was FATHOMING at the time

Laura

My ranking is so different but my LOVE for Evermore is the same! Midas Touch: Time to Go, Champagne Problems, Evermore, Happiness, No Body No Crime Everybody Loves You: Marjorie, Dorothea, Tis The Damn Season, Closure, Right Where You Left Me Long Story Short: Tolerate It, Long Story Short, Goldrush, Willow I'll Tolerate It: Ivy, Cowboy Like Me, Coney Island (Don't kick me off the team, I really really tried but this is just my truth)

Laura

Abby Magliaro

just a thought: “you ask me to dance, and i said dancing is a dangerous game” and “dropped your hand while dancing, left you out there standing”

Yes!! More evermore!! 🤎 I remember recently going to the evermore folder and there wasn’t much in there. Glad to know more will be coming. 🥹

farah abed

We are BLESSED WITH THIS HELP🥹🥹😭😭

Marissa

marjorie made me cry on the first listen, and it made me BAWL during the Eras Tour. Can’t believe she wrote that damn song and put it on the setlist. My other absolute favorites are evermore and cowboy like me 🤎🧡

Lauren

Friendly reminder that she was guilty as sinning about Joe when she was with Calvin Harris AND Tom Hiddleston!!

Jane

you guys should react to the evermore apple music interview

Katherine McClintic

I need to point out in case it hasn't been said, that Right Where you Left Me takes place at a restaurant and It's Time to Go starts with "when the dinner get cold.....you ask for the tab" like she's like it's literally time to leave the restaurant an no one can go but ME! Also IVY wsd my number one on spotify for two years, and my listening history ranks It's Time To Go Next, totally agree about that song in your 30's hitting RIGHT

Caitlin

“I AM A TREE“

Caitlin

Today I learned Marcus Mumford was on evermore and I have been completely blindsided ad to why it’s taken me 5 years. Much appreciated Girls xoxo dum dum over here.

Lauribooks

I once read someone say that Right where you left me is the continuation of No body no crime, like she can’t move on from losing her friend in such a violent way and I now can’t stop thinking about it.

DemiMarie🤍🖤

Love all your thoughts on this album....FolkMore is just so special 🫶🏻

Candace Tirado

This episode was made for me and only me. Thank youuuuuu. Dorthea and Coney Island and CLMA FOREVER

Mitch hansen

thank you emily for introducing "shit cunt" into my swearing lexicon i have used it alot talking about the current US president.

Mitch hansen

i cannot fathom the dislike of tolerate it!!! its my number 1 all time fav taylor song and absolutely the most iconic track 5

Audra

A lot of time I start with Dorothea and then play through to the end because I tend to be ok skipping some of the early album tracks like Gold Rush 😅 Ivy and Cowboy like Me are my top 2 followed by Evermore and Champagne Problems but you’re right they’re all superior and it’s an incredible album we’re lucky to have!

SharonM

When you guys do the breakdown I really need you to explore Coney Island as an epic diss track to Frightful Adam aka Calvin Harris 😈 I just went down a rabbit hole of their beef with the songwriting pseudonym and it opened up a lot of callbacks to points in their relationship.

lucinda 🪐

I’ve been in a real closure vibe at the moment and I think it would’ve rocked in ttpd. I really like it I just think it doesn’t fit the vibe of evermore sonically.

Tegan

Emily comparing Coney Island to Cars is actually unreal hahahaha

Dirk-Jan Gruppen

for me bdilh is the definition of the i think he knows treatment

Mequet

Emily! Listening to your thoughts on Tolerate It and how maybe it hits a little too close to home for a previous relationship you had that you don’t want to revisit—maybe the reason it doesn’t sit well is also because in the end she stays? Like she sees all the problems and knows she’s miserable but by the end of the song she doesn’t leave. Whereas in Happiness whatever relationship she’s talking about is already over and she’s moving on.

K K

“I just wanna shoot myself over that” you ladies make me laugh so much, thank you so much.

Rachael Wright

My ranking for evermore is so different from these lol i would be terrified to actually put it down in writing as i have some major unpopular opinions on some songs

isabel

the comparison to coney island and cars…. i love that so much omg

Vilma🧚🏻✨💘💅🏼🫶🏼

I just watched this video again and yeeeessss chickens I can’t wait for more evermore content and B R E A K D O W N S of the songs!!!! Like WHAT DO YOU MEAN BREAKDOWNS???? That should be illegal and I CANNOT wait for all of your superb chatty chats on evermoreeeeee

Micah

Emily I have that mug!!!

Micah

Okay this is crazy, but let it be known that evermore is my favorite album, so the order could change based on the day, and I love the songs that I ranked low. 1. Coney Island 2. Closure 3. Tis the damn season 4. Happiness 5. It’s time to go 6. Gold rush 7. Ivy 8. Right where you left me 9. Willow 10. Long story short 11. Champagne problems 12. Marjorie 13. Evermore 14 Dorothea 15. No body no crime 16 cowboy like me 17 tolerate it

Jennie 🐍🖤

I always took the crashing and banging like a ‘big machine’ breaking…

Jennie 🐍🖤

I’m convinced RWYLM is from the personified perspective of Taylor’s first 6 records (masters) as a girl so heartbroken she’s left frozen. I think it’s pretty clear that “it’s time to go” is generally about the masters situation, but it’s from Taylor’s perspective. The bonus tracks are different views of the same situation, where Taylor is able to move on only by leaving her masters behind. There are also a lot of lyrical parallels between the two songs, and thematically they’re both about leaving, but I wanted to highlight some key lines in RWYLM. The first verse is about time passing generally, but this line sticks out: “Wages earned and lessons learned, but I’m right where you left me” — in other words, her original masters are unchanged despite how Taylor herself has grown and learned since recording them. “I stayed there, dust collected on my pinned up hair” I feel like ‘the pinned up hair’ personifies the more youthful Taylor who recorded the masters, forgotten as present-day Taylor won’t approve any uses of the original recordings. “Glass shattered on the white cloth / everybody moved on” Vs (from ITTG) “he’s got my past, frozen behind glass”. “They expected me to find somewhere / some perspective, but I sat and stared / Right where you left me.” The ‘they’ referenced here is the general public and music industry that thinks Taylor’s fight over her masters is silly and that Taylor would give up/was bluffing about re-recording them. But the masters are instead staying right where Taylor left them, unused. Similar sentiment in the line: “Break ups happen every day / you don’t have to lose it.” This line represents the people Taylor should give up on regaining her masters after leaving her label. “You told me that you met someone” aka, Taylor found a new record label and wouldn’t take the deal to earn back her original recordings one album at a time. Passing up that horrible deal left Taylor’s masters “no choice but to stay here forever.” And the last lines of each song contrast really beautifully: “You left me no choice but to stay here forever” (RWYLM) vs. the closing lines of ITTG “you just go” The numerous references to the age of 23 in RWYLM throws me a bit, but I suspect that was the age when Taylor started caring a lot more about/advocating to own her work. Or it could be the age she thinks represents her peak with Big Machine? Anyways, thank you for coming to my Tedtalk 😊

Claudy

I honestly never got over my gold rush obsession. I listen to it every day, it became part of my routine.

Courtney

They did! It's on Patreon somewhere.

TWIN!!! (Literally), me too for example, cowboy like me, Coney island and happiness are last in my rankings and yet everyone ranks them first. I love a beat, my top ranking would be tis the damn season, gold rush, ivy and Marjorie

Cinetati

Catching up on the videos and haven’t finished this one but I think one thing we kind of forget sometimes is how she also wrote those album after loosing her first 6 albums and essentially her home and everything she worked for her entire life and how affected she was and probably put that more in her songs that we think....

It’s so sad that even in the prologue, she can’t even say Joe’s name. In fact, she doesn’t even say “William Bowery”. She shortened it to WB.

Leah Rose

Okay I am going to rant but sometimes I feel crazy as if I am the only one who knew from the very beginning folklore and evermore weren't fully fictional. The very essence of the word folklore are stories and beliefs being passed down through word of mouth, so they are based in truths but eventually those truths get changed as the stories are passed. Taylor never claimed any of these stories were completely fictional and had no relation to her personal life. She basically says as such in her Apple Music 2020 interview where she was trying to be less autobiographical and use storytelling to tell of her feelings in a way that was more emotionally sustainable. It was never about her saying they were fact or fiction, it was about using fictional themes to get across very real feelings and scenarios. I beg anyone who thinks folklore/evermore were fully fictional or not fully fictional to please watch that interview. We are losing the ancient texts and it's driving me CRAZY!!

Coming back to finish this video. "tis the damn season was and has forever remained my number 1 evermore song since the beginning. I truly relate to that feeling, of coming back home, or visiting friends where you used to live, and reigniting a relationship that probably should've stayed buried. "you can call me babe for the weekend" is quite literally one of the most offensive things she's ever said. I love that song so purely, so deeply. Will never leave my #1 spot for evermore.

nobody fathoms that gold rush might be the best song shes ever written 😭 why wont people fathommm😭

AHHH THANK YOU FOR FATHOMING GOLD RUSH 🤩🙏🏼 you just have to fathom tolerate it and happiness now

wow my taste is so similar to yours except I havent fathomed evermore and you havent fathomed gold rush!

You need to fathom Evermore my fav! I actually loveee gold rush this is my fave album so was so hard to rank

Tom

i fathomed about its time to go that she ends it with telling herself to go and the opens her next album with i just wanna stay in that lavender haze

Mendy

Slandering Tolerate It while in the same video praising Dorothea is mind baffling to me!!!!!! Like are we hearing the same songs???

You broke my brain with your revelation about the bonus tracks being opposite sides of the same coin. Genius!!

Alanis Vasconcelos

Tolerate it has such a special place and meaning in my life. It was my wake up call, ended my marriage. The way it ends with “I sit and listen…” after all that what if I break free etc, as she thinks about it so much and it ends with her still there. I can’t, it’s tooooooo personal, perfectly described. And evermore… My top 1. She’s everything, although I LOVED Taylor’s version on the piano, and still think that she could give us that on a recording of that show, or long pond version.. The way they fight over that bridge it’s soooo perfect for me. I sing like a maniac both parts. Love love love the whole album!!

khalil El annan

gurls you cannot imagine how much your videos mean to me! no words can describe it. It's really everything I ever wanted since I was a TS fan since speak now

Chelsea

HOW TO RANK? 1. Marjorie That’s all I know!!

Cassy

i need an evermore rebranding (as bonny once said about lover) watching evermore content to try to fathom some more. i’ve had the same top 3 fav songs forever. cowboy like me (forever a fav, will never get old), dorothea (so listenable but starting to love it less) & right where you left me (not listening at all lately). i have a feeling my new favs on this album are going to reveal themselves to me soon 🤎.

Cassy

on this note, i need a “why we love evermore” video so soon
