I’ve joined fairly recently and just working my way through videos from the beginning…and I’ve just this second fathomed that champagne problems is linked to tis the damn season/dorothea and it’s just made it make sense for me. I’ve always loved champagne problems, def in my top 3 on evermore but I just never quite got who it was about, knew it was in the story telling vibe and not connected to her personally but never got the link until now. Ahh I love Bonny and Emily for explaining all these things ❤️

Ethan Nguyen

IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS YES YES YES IVE MISSED YOU GIRLIES

madison martin

Mustafa Diab

Lea

Oh my god this series of videos is gonna be SO incredible I‘m so excited!!! I can’t wait for the Add on chorus ranking!! Also PLEASE do one for Intros!!! ❤️❤️

Ava Jeffs

YES i'm so excited to watch!! whenever I get this notification it immediately puts a smile on my face and I know this is gonna be a good one! hoping to see treacherous and illicit affairs because those bridges send me to another dimension :) also the last kiss bridge is offensive!! simply too many to pick from!! i know taylor was a civil engineer in another life....

Léa

omg yes love you ! but it feels soooo ILLEGAL to rank anything Taylor’s related 🫣😂

Renee aka ynotshsdow

Soooo excited for all your lists. Keep them coming. Please and thank you 😍🙏😂

Renee aka ynotshsdow

God damn you two make me smile the whole time it's just too funny how happy these videos make me feel 💙🤣 #noonedoesreactionslikeyoudo

D

I've been waiting for this! So excited to watch

Mark Barnwell

Ladies you both look incredible today. Emily's hair is so beautiful, and Bonnie's hair pulled back.

Joe Weaver

Earlier in the day this time! At least my day. Usually these show up around 8-9 pm. Can't wait to watch later! ❤

Amy Andrews

omf MY FAVS <333 this has made my Wednesday eve

Patty Minor

This was great but Emily is in the dark and Bonnie is all lit up. I think you need to move around the room again to get better lighting on the two of you.

Joe Weaver

I'm sure the Cruel Summer bridge is on the list cause...yeah, of course it is. It's so weird that I'd never heard CS before a year ago. June 2021 was my personal Lover era. Then folklore was July & evermore was August. It was a fun time getting to experience it all like that. Saying that I'm still jealous of everyone who been to a tour & all that.

Sascha

loved this so much!! totally agree with your opinions especially August and OOTW <3 I think my honourable mentions would be Coney Island, This Is Me Trying, and My Tears Riccochet :)

Monica Gaura

Ahh! Just got to the part about Ivy and: <333! Stunning bridge! But also, re: your comment about how she loves the word goddamn in that song.. have you heard the clean version?? The adjectives she replaces that with add a whole new level to it! It’s a ‘Violent!’ blaze in the dark and the ‘Fiercest!’ fight of my life!

madison martin

i’m so surprised cardigan didn’t make the cut

Hannah S

Fav bridges that didn’t quite make the cut: Getaway Car🚙 bc the storytelling, Coney Island 🎡 bc the references to her past relationships, Lover 💗 bc it’s literally wedding vows like her mind

Suzanne Gabrentina

I had to make a spotify playlist to listen to this list again and again!

Shannon Gilhooly

I was worried MTR wasn’t going to make it!

Shannon Gilhooly

Honestly, a sneaky iconic bridge is from Mine

Shannon Gilhooly

Also sparks fly. Speak now had some killer bridges!! Can’t wait for you guys to review speak now

Ben Houtz

Love this so so much…. I got so concerned you weren’t going to mention Daylight haha. Also I agree with All Too Well at #1 but I have to go with Out of the Woods for #2 simply bc that tour performance when she repeats it is S U P E R I O R

Reese

The cruel summer bridge always reminds me of The Great Gatsby. Like with "snuck in through the garden gate" I imagine the mansion. And "every night that summer just to seal my fate" goes so well with Daisy and Gatsby hahaha.

VadersPetPig

Not ya'll snubbing cardigan from its glory 😭

mariana

YAY! can't wait to see it!

MarkH

OK, a couple of ideas, not that you're short of them. 1. Best backing vocals. That will be a tough one! 2. Analyze her stand-alone songs, like Crazier, I Don't Wanna Live Forever, Both of Us, et cetera. A lot of us don't really know those, I bet, including me, or the stories behind them, and since Taylor Swift wrote them, they are likely pretty great. This could tie in with Carolina, when we get that.

Mustafa Diab

I think one of my favorite bridges is in the song, right where you left me, I just think it's so superior and beautifully constructed.

MarkH

I love the way she says "crusssh" in "up on the roof with a schoolgirl crush"! One of her best uses of pronunciation, I feel.

Val Flores

I hope you guys do best features and best singles as well!! This was so much fun

MarkH

I think I neglected to say in my previous comments: thank you, thank you! This is epic! I would never argue with you, because all of these are wonderful. I started making a list of honorable mentions, but when I got to 15 with over half of her discography to go, I gave up. So let me just mention five: Back to December, State of Grace, cardigan, cowboy like me, and evermore.

farah abed

YASSSS I AM SO EXCITED TO WATCH THIS. Best notification to wake up to---> new video from Chats & Reacts ❤️😭

Catalina Borreani

LOVING THIS EDITINGGGGG OMG! i have things to say: 1. last kiss is my top 2 taylor swift song of all time are you kidding??? she wrote that by herself????? she’s insane 2. “snuck in through he garden gates” gives me bridgerton vibes, am i the only one? 3. the dress bridge makes me fall in love all over again whenever i hear it. it’s a love letter within itself!!! WHAAAT DO YOU MEAN??? my one and only!! my life line!!! (i wrote this before emily said the same words lol) 4. OH I REMEMBEEEER!!!!! 5. “i made the joke “well its made for me” changes EVERYTHING and its so underrated. it needed to be there, tells us so much about her. november flush and your flannel cure is insane, she is completely mental. 6. “our songs, our films, united we stand” i feel so atttached to that lyric. i feel like music and films is something i’ve always bonded over with my partners. so when it ends all i’m left with is those things we shared, the ACHE omg. “paper cut stings from our paper thin plans”???? shut the f up. 7. so casually cruel in the name of being honest??? frightfull men in a nutshell. thank you for reminding me that all too well normal length is still superior. i’m listening to it all night now. 8. SO HAPPY FOR THE HONORABLE MENTIONS LETS SEEEEEE.

Catalina Borreani

“at every table i’ll save you a seat”. leave me alone i need to cry. that is what love looks like and she worded it perfectly !!!!!!!

Sam Williams

This is pure joy personified. Thank you ❤️

Leilani Willcox

I'm 4 minutes in, and already love this!

Maryelba Soto

I looooved hearing your thoughts, not gonna lie, it really hurt me Tolerate It didn´t make it to your top 15 hahahha, either way, great video you guys, keep it up!! <3

S 🤍

ME TOO!! I always thought the bridge started with "But I knew you'd linger like a tattoo kiss..." but Genius says thats the third verse!! And apparently they say the bridge is "To kiss in cars and downtown bars was all we needed, You drew stars around my scars but now I'm bleeding..." I wonder if Bonny and Em agree with that?

Monica Gaura

I was just as shocked when I heard! People don’t talk about this enough 🤯

rowan

an outro video would be so cool ! it would have to include all too well 10 min version and the other side of the door 😊✨

rowan

AND DAYLIGHT OMG i saw this theory on twitter recently which might be a bit of a stretch but its kinda cool. its about how the spoken phone voice moment at the end is significant because taylor has some bad moments in her life tied to phone calls (joe jonas breakup, kim kayne feud etc.) and in one of her rep poems she says "wary of phone calls" and then theres the LWYMMD song and video with the evil taylor phone bridge moment so the daylight outro is interesting because it flips that previous negative connotation with her delivering this really beautiful positive message over the phone. what do you guys think. it might not be that deep but i like to believe this theory haha 😭

anya

Omg true I also feel like that whole entire song is just one big ranting bridge

anya

Yessss I can’t wait for all the other videos!! For the outro one the other side of the door better be #1!!!

farah abed

I totally agree that coney island is ONE of her best ARE YOU JOKING😭 also, cardigan and right where you left me.... every time i hear those bridges it's like I'm hearing them again for the first time I swear 🥲🥲

farah abed

I mean oh my god guys, she tells the WHOLE story and breakdown of the relationship in the bridge of 'right where you left me', so so deeply iconic it's SO concerning

Rj De La Cruz

Seeing Lover in the BG is an EASTER EGG

Maja Gunhold

you two look very Debut in this video. i love! also this is quality content queens :)

farah abed

omg SAME, I am forever changed

farah abed

ME TOO !!😭😭😭😭 this song is my entire personality and I swear my soul leaves my body EVERY time i hear it's bridge... how. dare. she. 😭

farah abed

I always thought the bridge started with ' To kiss in cars....' as well ! I can't quite place where i think the bridge ends, I think it flows really beautifully into the last chorus so it's hard to distinguish the two but I definitely think the bridge starts with ' to kiss in cars' 🥰🥰

farah abed

OMG this never occurred to me ! GENIUS !!!!!

taylor

not to be dramatic but i fucking love this video

farah abed

catalina girl you are just SPILLING all the facts right here 😭 couldn't agree with you more !!! and omg yes from now i have this plan to slow dance to an instrumental cover of 'lover' at my wedding 😭 i just think it'll sound so beautiful with the music being played live on piano and violin... UGH THIS SONG. 😭

Catalina Borreani

farah omg SAME. my boyfriend knows that WILL happen when we get married. it’s the new go-to wedding song 🥹🥹🥹

Rj De La Cruz

Guysss!! The Other Side of the Door bridgeeeee #justice 🥲🥲

Anissa Kazi

i pretty much agree with your list (& your honorable mentions!) but I have to admit i was pretty sad not to see Long Live- the bridge is so superior and it makes me so emotional thinking about all of the years I’ve listened to Taylor 😩

S 🤍

OMGGG YESSS but i've always thought more of that as an outro?

Julia

LOVED this video 💜 TS bridges are so hard to rank! Cardigan bridge is one of my absolute faves! Come Back be Here, Hoax, Tolerate it, Getaway Car, Dancing with our hands tied, & Blank Space are some iconic ones also

Annabella Glatte

Totally agree with All Too Well as #1!! Does this mean you prefer the original bridge to the bridge in ATW 10 min version? Love you guys btw ❤️❤️

Clash Fan

Very excited for this! I'm behind as I'm in the middle of moving so I still haven't watched the Harry's House breakdown. Hope to catch up this weekend. 😳

Shan

✨ champagne ✨ problems ✨ I’ll never forget the first time I heard that bridge

ad

illicit affairs :(((

Maria Carmen

I am so excited to watch this after work, but I must say OFFENSIVE OUTFITS!!!! You are glowing 💛🦋✨

Adyson

Superior and fucking offensively iconic film editing 🥰💖💖

Samskie

Loved this!! Right Where You Left Me, Forever Winter and Sparks Fly would be in there for me too. Forever Winters bridge wrecks me!

Olivia Haddock

I will never get over the Tolerate It bridge, absolutely offensive. Top 5 for me x

Mar Colomer Ventura

I love the video! Folklore is a masterpiece of bridges. And Getaway Car OMG i love it! And the video of Taylor and Jake coming up with the lyrics!! Its offensive! And the bridges of Lover... There are soooo MANY!

Jackie

Thank you for this!! Loved all your picks but omg Cardigan is definitely a fav with “you drew stars around my scars but now I’m bleeding” like how could it not?! And Cowboy Like Me I think deserves a honorable mention for the completely offensive “and the skeletons in both our closets plotted hard to fuck this up…” 💀🤍

Vronnie

yes to ALL of this but your faces at 20:42 is a literal mood when discussing boys lol

Amy Vega

Last Kiss is my favorite Taylor Swift song of all time so I’m so happy the bridge made this list!!! 💜💜💜

lozza :)

i love this!! i agree with these but personally for me cardigan, seven, tolerate it and cowboy like me are some of my favourite bridges of taylor’s but these things are so hard to rank especially as taylor has so many superior and offensive bridges!!

sierra

good morning from california ☀️ it’s currently 3:30am here & I am going through some hard family times that are keeping me awake. I am so, so glad I subscribed to your patreon so I have this video to help me through the night & to lift my spirits. u are both angels 🤍

Josie Bicknelle

This is me praying that This was the very first page Not where the storyline ends My thoughts will echo your name Until I see you again These are the words I held back As I was leaving too soon I was enchanted to meet you

Sarah Glover

Getaway Car, Clean, and I Think He Knows ... superior bridges!

Irene

same! like it hurts me but at the same time I loveeeee it

Jule

I haven’t watched the whole video yet but must say now before I forget: LOVE THE TIS THE DAMN SEASON APPRECIATION. It’s one of my favourite songs of her ever (definitely in my top 30 of not higher) and I feel like it’s so underrated.

farah abed

1. Champagne problems 2. All Too Well 3. The last great american dynasty 4. Right where you left me 5. Cardigan 6. Tolerate it 7. Dear John 8. My tears ricochet 9. Peace 10. Dress 11. Out of the Woods 12. Ivy 13. Marjorie 14. Coney Island 15. Last Kiss This was my top 15 but my honorable mentions (as emily and bonny call it heheh) are: exile, mirrorball, illicit affairs, long live and treacherous. TOO MANY TO CHOOSE FROM😭😭😭

Jonah

Idea: most iconic opening/closing lyric

Emily Hopkins

Sparks fly, SAD BEAUTIFUL TRAGIC BRIDGE!?!?! ALSO WHERE IS THE JUSTICE FOR THE TOLERATE IT BRIDGE!!!!!

Emily Hopkins

THIS IS ME TRYING!!!! CARDIGAN!?!?! all deeply illegal and superior bridges.

Jayde

Love this video and agree completely EXCEPT illegal that Cardigan is not in your top 15

Anna Miotello

I loved this comment haha... Also, THE. EDITING. Bonnie, that is super creative and it genuinely gave me life! :D I was already hooked on the video but I couldn't wait to hear what sound you would choose for each song. Love, love, love!

Tessy

This was AMAZINGGG thank you so much!!! I have to say that everybody is absolutely SLEEPING on Mine, that bridge is ICONIC and nobody talks about it 😭😭 Otherwise I LOVED this video and getting to hear what you two thought about these offensive songs!!!!

Katie

I’m so surprised Marjorie didn’t make it!

tay

can we all just admit that the only reason BABE is on our playlists is the ILLEGAL bridge?

Lea

Omg guys PLEASE do a video ranking her best metaphors!!!! Like mirrorball, coney island, New Years Day, Getaway Car,…

Cecilia Sparke

I agree, I'm not a massive fan of the whole song but the bridge is epic!

Jenna Aguirre

Wow, I love this series and am already thinking of songs with the best outros! 😍 My Offensive Bridge Honorable Mentions that you 2 didn’t mention are Cardigan, Tolerate It, Enchanted, Happiness, The Lakes, IBYTAM, Fifteen, and You Are In Love. ♥️♥️♥️

Cecilia Sparke

I agree with pretty much all of your top 15! I loved this vid lot. One of my fav bridges to sing along to is London Boy, it's so fun and catchy. She also repeats it in the outro. LB makes my top 10 TS songs so I am biased 😁 xx

MarkH

Off topic, but the indie band Adult Mom just released a cover of Cruel Summer with Jessica Boudreaux. Link below. This is another sign of indie cred for Taylor; this would never have happened before folklore/evermore. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZD3rnMp1eiA

Dany Rv

OMG You just made me realize that I love illicit affairs, what is she trying to do with that bridge!! And thank you for including My tears ricochet 💛 This is one of my favorite videos!! Thank you!!💛💛💛

adrian

omg can’t wait for all the ranking videos!! but idk probably an honourable mention for me is the story of us bridge !!

Courtney Thomas

I agree with this list but Coney Island deserved an honorable mention 😭🥲

Aya

I really agree with you guys !! Taylor is SOO good at bridges it's insane like it truly blows my MIND. but I have to say that cowboy like me should be include in the honorary mention cuz look at this : And the skeletons in both our closets Plotted hard to mess this up And the old men that I've swindled Really did believe I was the one And the ladies lunching have their stories about When you passed through town But that was all before I locked it down

chatsandreacts

We have spoken about this, look it deserved a top 15 spot I agree but also how do we put so many superior songs in a top 15 😭😭😭😭 it’s actually painful

chatsandreacts

hahahah omg I am HERE to say that the clean version of ivy can stay away from me 🤣🤣 I was so offended when I first heard it…. “Oh I can’t, my pain fits in the palm of your freezing hand” is a big no 😭

chatsandreacts

It didn’t make it specifically because of what Sadiel said 😭😭😭 TECHNICALLY not a bridge!!! That part of the song is also our fav tho!!!

chatsandreacts

What you think is the bridge tho is not the bridge 😭😭😭 hence the snubbing

Monica Gaura

🤣🤣 fair point! That part’s so awkward hahah

Joe Weaver

King of My Heart is very underrated. Not by Bonny & Emily but by the rest of the universe. So many rep songs could have been hit singles but weren't cause other things got in the way of some of the great stuff. But the tour fixed that, at least for Swifties.

Joe Weaver

This started as a Top 10, turned into Top 15 and then we basically get a Top 25! Love it. Must say that DBATC being #2 made me so happy. It's in my personal Top 10 songs so loved that. Then hearing you talk about Dear John & Last Kiss...that Speak Now breakdown can't come soon enough! Debut, I hope we can get some of those songs into these lists. It's so left out. Poor thing!

Cody

Love the lists and absolutely love that it was a top 25 instead of top 10. Would have been perfectly ok with you each having a top 25 even with crossover. ☺️

Cecilia Sparke

Oh and the fingers clicking in the bridge of Dress... when Bonny mentioned it I immediately thought of hypnotherapists who click their fingers to bring you back into reality and wake you up .... just like Taylor felt when she 'woke up just in time'. TS is so amazing!!!

Maria Carmen

OK the amount of serotonin this video gave me!!! I can't rank, but Cruel Summer, King of my Heart, Dress and Death by a Thousand Cuts own me ✨

De Shayna

I always die in lover when she says “all’s well that ends well to end up with you” which refers back to the all too well (10 min version) when she says “they say alls well that ends well but im in a new hell” Another lover song that refers back to its sister album red

Maria Carmen

OHHH that's an offensive one!

Whitney

I was waiting for Bonny to mention Wildest Dreams. Obviously that entire song is superior but that bridge kills me every single time. So simple. So sexy. Dead.

Ava Jeffs

just was listening to back to December and oh my gosh that bridge is so offensive! it’s so hard to pick when every bridge is the best thing I’ve ever heard

Joe Weaver

Does everyone know the story about how apparently Rebecca Harkness dyed her neighbor's cat key-lime green. But Taylor changed it to a dog cause, you know, she's Taylor & she loves cats.

Tara Bartley

Yaaaas the iconic queen of bridges 🙌🏻🙌🏻 only one I was sad wasn’t mentioned was tolerate it - I made you my temple my mural my sky, now I’m begging for footnotes in the story of your life - are you kidding meeeeeee but I understand if it is being saved for an outro bc that last chorus of took this dagger in me and removed it, gain the weight of you then lose it, believe me I could do it is just 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻 every time Omggggg and we love respect for last kiss it has always been in my top 3 I love seeing it get recognized because I agree it is absolutely some of her best lyrics and she wrote that by herself???? At 19?? Illegal and offensive

Sofie

Yeah, I heard that! No disrespecting the kittens when Taylor is around :D

Samskie

So, question that I forgot to ask earlier - is Taylor's rap in End Game considered a bridge? Because it has the power of a TS bridge. I love nothing more than to shout it, like the OOTW bridge 😂 genius says it isn't but I thought it was ha.

Alexandra Speight

This video gave me such an immense amount of joy! Thankyou sooooo much for this, I had a wonderful watching this. Also love the "Mine" bridge can't wait for the next installment 🥰
