I finally got to this video! I listened to the album for the first time last night, and then watched your reaction. I loved this album so much. I understand what you guys are talking about in the production, but it didn’t take away too much for me. My favorites right now are John Hughes Movie, Outdoor Pool, Love Him I don’t, Psycho, Boy, Villain, Elvis Song, Volcano, and Tough Act. But I liked every single one!

Jonah

Finally!!!! Looking forward to watching :)

Victoria

Claudia Vargas

oh I love Maisie! so happy you guys reacted to her!!

Brittany casey

oh my goodness please read through each lover diary!!!

Victoria

40 mins in and I predict you will both love Hollow, Villain and Volcano. I really recommend you listen to one’s not on the album for the Maisie vibe you’re after - Favourite Ex, Feels Like This, Place We We’re Made, Best I’ll ever Sing, Daydreams, Details, and Architecture are my faves xx

Phillipe

Loving this already and I’m only 30 mins in haha

mieke

Watching you fathom the sheer offensiveness of Maisie Peters makes me so happy! šŸ«¶šŸ» What a joy this video is šŸ’ƒšŸ¼šŸŽ¶

Dany Rv

Yessss I don’t have the diaries!! Pleaseee we want the videos šŸ‘šŸ»šŸ„³

Joe Weaver

I know absolutely nothing here so this should be an interesting one to watch. Curious to see if I'm into Maisie!

Julia

yes please!!

Cheyenne Talbot

Finally! I have been a Maisie fan forever and nobody I follow reacts to her. So excited to see this!

k80scorner

I would LOVE a video for each Lover diary!! I’ve only glanced through my copies, and I know not everyone got access to them, so reading through them together would be such a cozy time šŸ’•

farah abed

Ahhhh i loved this so much😭! My best friend showed me Maisie's music a few years ago when she was basically just taking off so it's definitely been fun following her music and finally hearing your opinionsā¤ļø!! My favorites are definitely 'Love Him I Don't' and 'Villian' , the way she switches it up in the last chorus of love him i don't to her now speaking directly to him saying 'loving you hurts and i loved you first....' BROKE ME. Really excited to see what she does in the coming years as you girls say! ā¤ļø

Caitlyn Martin

I have been WAITINGGGGG for this, cannot wait to watch! EDIT (after watching): LOVED this so much!! Perfect way to spend my Monday night. Thanks to you both!!! 🄰

Madi Rose

YES i completely agree with you Bonnie when you said Maisies sound isn't one of your favorites but her lyricism is enough to make you fall in love ! since we have the same thoughts on that I once again am saying you should react to This is What it Feels Like by Gracie Abrams because the lyricism is amazing AND the production is very Folklore (a lot of it is produced by Aaron so that makes sense). I just KNOW you will LOVE Gracie's sound

Emily Christine

Love this!! Please do a Gracie Abram's reaction!! She is AMAZING

Sarah LaForce

Do Cate's Brother and Cate's Brother (Matt's Version)! and maybe her EPs as well, pretty please?

Julia

YAY A NEW VIDEO WATCHING IMMEDIATELY

Ambika Rao

Thanks for these song recommendations!! Really enjoying

Millicent Bannon

Love this!! for your next video can you please react to Phoebe Bridgers - punisher. literally my favourite album of all time! xoxo

Julia

i would love if you guys could react to conan gray’s album kid krow!! LOVE his musicšŸ¤šŸ¤

Maddie

OMGG i screamed when bonny said outdoor pools was giving marianne and connell vibes AH

kelsie

waiiiit okay you need to watch maisie and griff’s exile cover 🄲

Suzi Davenport

AH love this! If you love Maisie’s songwriting but not the production (same), you should definitely check out Gracie Abrams! She has equally amazing songwriting with more of a folklore sound (she worked with Aaron Dessner on the album!)

MarĆ­a

Love this! Been a fan of her for a long time. She actually have an EP out with a very different production style, it’s way more acoustic

Bradi R

I have been a Maisie fan for 6 years now!! Her unreleased songs and her EPs are AMAZING. I'm not as huge a fan of her album for the exact reasons Bonny and Emily mentioned... I am hoping Maisie gets back to the acoustic vibes hehe

Talya

i would love if you checked out her ep dressed too nice for a jacket!!🄺

Bradi R

React to her EPs and/or unreleased songs!!! They're way more up your alley.

Bradi R

ARCHITECTURE. DETAILS.

Sasha Dreyer

Yes absolutely! I love Gracies album sooooooo much

Greg

saw her in concert in march she was amazing live. so much fun!

Ethan Nguyen

GRACIE ABRAMS NEXT— AARON LITERALLY PRODUCED IT AND IT GIVES ME FOLKLORE VIBESSSSSSSS

Greg

i also feel like you guys are gonna love the bridge for villain

Jade

Saw Ed at the weekend he was amazing and Maisie opened for him. I loved her. It’s so funny how you can tell if they are fans of Taylor with the way they write 🤣. It was my daughters first ever concert and she loved it x

Lynn Craven

I'm seeing alot of comments recommending Gracie Abrams but aren't we forgetting about Lizzy McAlpine?

Amira

ā€œTake care of yourselfā€ they might like too

Samskie

Lizzy is amazing. Five Seconds Flat is the album of 2022 (to me ha)

chatsandreacts

Its funny I didn't love volcano on the first listen but maybe it will grow on me, I loveeee villain though!!

Maria Carmen

Aaaah perfect way to start the morning!! I watched the first half before going to work and loved seeing you guys react to Maisie šŸ’› I have been following her for a couple of months now and I reeeally like her vibe. She is also super quirky and funny on TikTok. I completely agree that some of the songs are over produced, but her lyricism is amazing and you can really feel Taylor's influence in her music! My personal favorites in her overall collection: Cate's brother, I'm trying (not friends) and Psycho, because I do like her upbeat feel combined with the unhinged lyrics! Given the comments though, I want to check out her EP "Dressed too nice for a jacket". Also, I hope to see her live in London next spring 🄰

Maria Carmen

I almost must simply say that you girls made me fathom Love him I don't and Boy... Illegal!!! 🤭

Ethan Nguyen

PUNISHER BY PHOEBE BRIDGERS!!! U GUYS HAVE TO BREAK THAT ALBUM DOWN ITS SIMPLY SUPERIOR AND WAS ALSO NOMINATED ALONGSIDE FOLKLORE FOR ALBUM OF THE YEAR

Vronnie

So i loved this! i hadnt heard the album before but i have to say i freaking love me some pettiness in songwriting! be a queen girl and call out that shit... the pettiness is a literal mood! lol 'Boy' was a fave of mine for this reason! But overall this albums sweet spot was the middle... tracks 4-8 especially

Louisa HunskjƦr

PLEASE do a video where you read the lover diaries!! That would be simply SUPERIOR!!

Anna Miotello

this was super interesting because I hadn't heard a single song from this album before watching the video. On first listen, I appreciate the lyrics but overall I didn't like the production and didn't feel captivated by any of the melodies. But maybe I just need to relisten to it on my own. By the way, yesterday I found a recording of Taylor's talk at the TRIBECA film festival and it was super interesting. :) I think it's definitely worth a watch.

Samskie

I actually found Maisie via Taylor in July 2020... She covered Betty when folklore was released and Taylor saw and retweeted it. Then I started to delve in to her EPs šŸ’– did anyone else find her that way?

k80scorner

Did you find the Tribeca video just on YouTube? I’ve been searching for one that’s decent because I’ve been dying to hear her speak 😩

Anna Miotello

Quality wasn’t great but I could hear just fine. 😊 it was alright! I found it last night (Europe time) on YT.

Ella Spear

please please do lover diary reaction vids on Patreon!!! one for each!! that would be so cool. and the rep magazines!!!

Lucy R

Loved this! She has also released a new version of Cate's Brother with Matt Maltese (his song "even if its a lie" is so superior btw, makes me bawl, would recommend) so that might be cool to react to as well! It is a bit slower, more acoustic, and just beautiful so would love to hear your opinion on that as I think I might actually like it more than the original :0. I have also seen a few people float the Lizzie McAlpine name and she is CRAZY talented, would love to watch you guys react to her sometime. Also this is my first time saying hi, so hi! Your channel is literally my comfort watch so I'm so glad I'm able to be here and get all the content :))) Hope you are doing goooood :))

Mille Kragerup

Please do a video reacting to the lover diaries that would be sooo cool!! And maybe daylight live from Paris, now that we are talking about lover! Love your videos!

Patty Minor

I hadn’t heard any of her songs until this post. I’m sad to say not a fan. Every song sounded the same to me. Looking forward to the Lover Diaries.

Alison

I'm so glad you finally have listened to this. It is her first album, and she was a busker for many years before she found success, so I can understand her wanting to go fully into a new album/try a produced sound. I would love for you to visit some of her non album songs, such as Daydreams and Feels Like This.

Alison

Love Griff :)

olivia g

loved this :)))) also i like the idea for the lover diaries🄳🄳🄳 ps a gracie abrams reaction video would be so great🄹

farah abed

OH MY GOD YES I LOVE THAT EP😭😭

Kira Wise

I love this album! When I first listened my favorite was Brooklyn and now after a few months I’ve become obsessed with Elvis Song. It slowly grew on me and now I’m obsessed. But I love so many songs on this album it’s just very fun!

Kira Wise

You guys should watch the music video for Psycho. It’s iconic and very fun!

Samskie

Some of her earlier songs are more acoustic based - really love Architecture, Personal Best (also about her sister) and Take Care of Yourself - you should give those a listen!! The album isn't my go to type of sound, and I do agree with you on the production, but like you guys the songwriting really pulled me in and I love how she sounds. Some songs had to grow on me sonically.

chelsea pariseau

Never gave Maisie a chance until this post…. Was definitely listening to I’m trying (not friends) on the way to work today! I think you guys would like Julia Michaels. She’s also a singer songwriter, she’s written songs for a bunch of people. She’s not in the Taylor universe per say, but she’s friends with Selena Gomez and has a song with her! So good! I recommend ā€œwhat a timeā€ duet with Niall horan, also she did a duet version of ā€œlie to meā€ with 5sos.

CK

Oh wow! I would 100% love a video about each Lover diary. I've never been able to get a hold of one. I had never listened to this album before so it was really interesting going through it with you for the first time. I don't think I really clicked with it personally. Some of the melodies were really nice, but the production and the style of writing wasn't for me, personally. I think I liked Love Him I don't best, out of everything.

Makena Rutan

Babes, love the video! But have to respectfully disagree on Volcano. Please listen to the acoustic version: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BflfnsHa6rI. According to Maisie it is about when someone ā€œnever has to face the consequences of their actionsā€ and ā€œa woman’s tendency to say nothing when the world is saying nothing first."

Beth

Loved this video šŸ’• you should also listen to Favourite Ex, Worst of You & This Is On You by Maisie they are her best I think šŸ’•

Regina Phalange

I knew you guys would love ā€˜love him I don’t.’ And I agree about John Hughes movie working better acoustically- I think it’s the best song on the album lyrically/melodically

Joe Weaver

I'm open to everything these days after unexpectedly falling into Swiftieness once I gave her a real chance beyond just the mainstream singles (most of which I really liked but just never felt compelled to go beyond).

šŸ’™ Megan šŸ’™

Based on what you guys thought of this I think you would be obsessed with "this is what it feels like" by Gracie Abrams! The writing is fantastic but the production is a lot more varied than this one. Plus a few of the most superior songs were produced with Aaron Dessner which is offensive. I love that there are so many swifties becoming great songwriters, the impact taylor has is truly unmatched.

Tara Bartley

Ahhhh I am so excited!!! I was just thinking today that ā€œI need Bonny and Emily to react to Maisieeeeā€ and then I got the YouTube notifications so I came to Patreon I saw this was uploaded and I was like yesssss!!! Haha I have never stanned an artist as fast as I did Maisie. I listened to the album one time with no prior knowledge of her, found her on tiktok, and immediately after the first Listen bought the vinyl and concert tickets (and the show was amazing!! She covered back to December at my show!) but I didn’t listen to anything except this album for the next few months after my first listen in January of this year. I personally love the production on this album but I’m obsessed with electronic production personally as a producer myself for my own music - working on finishing producing, mixing, and mastering my own first self written album currently! But I loved her production style actually and equally love her stripped back songs. Initially, songwriting wise, hollow was my favorite. That was when I was like this girl is a SONG šŸ‘šŸ» WRITER šŸ‘šŸ» but now my favorite is tough act I think or maybe Elvis song which had to grow on me. But I am also obsessed with villain, you signed up for this, John Hughes movie, and psycho though honestly I love the whole album soooo so so so much. and I am currently 34 minutes in and you all just said if we know the album well to comment what we think you will like and based on song writing and liking stripped back songs, I think you will both LOVE hollow and tough act! Aside from this album I’ve seen lots of people mention architecture, favorite ex, and details but I have to say one of her older songs that impressed me the most is Worst of You! I constantly am like howwwww did she write that so well that young??? Amazing love love Maisie and Taylor and you girls and am so excited to finish this reaction video - thank you for all you do for us 🄺🄺🄺

Tara Bartley

So now I have finished this and I will say volcano took quite a while to grow on me as well but now I am obsessed with it. It’s actually very deep, she wrote about it being about someone never having to face the consequences of their actions and a woman’s tendency to say nothing when the world says nothing first. It makes you analyze situations where you feel wronged or something happened to you, but no one said anything so you wonder about the validity of it as no one stands up for you and if just really gets me at ā€œand the silence, when you stood there. You just stood thereā€ and I just imagine her looking at friends or a crowd or his friends or whoever it was who all stood by and let whatever it was happen to her. No one said anything so neither did she because why make a big deal if no one else saw it? I love it now and the melody of the chorus grew on me a lot, I didn’t get super hooked at first but now it’s stuck in my head a lot! Loved you all loving boy and villain and psycho!! The story telling in outdoor pool is also so good. She’s so good and so young and I can’t wait to watch where she goes ā¤ļø

Iga W.

Videos of you reading Lover diaries would be so offensive! ā™”

Joe Weaver

Oh, I loved the moment early on here where you came to the realization, "wow, we're old!" Which of course you aren't compared to the rest of the world but I totally get as someone a little bit older than both of you (I'll be 35 in a couple of weeks). Dua Lipa sampled a song from 1997 for Love Again & I recognized the original. Those are the moments when you start to feel old! Ohhhhh...read the Lover diaries! Storytime with Bonny & Em! Would love that! (In the middle of watching the reaction video)

Joe Weaver

What's so hard about getting to know new artists is that to really know an album you have to listen to it quite a bit. But in order for you to do that, the first listen has to do enough. Which is probably why it's so hard to breakthrough in the music industry. I mean I'll give anything new Taylor does the benefit of the doubt even if I'm kinda indifferent on first listen just cause she's earned that trust. My point...there's some songs I really liked on this album of Maisie's. I think I like the first half more than the second. But as a debut album, it seems pretty good. I mean I don't love everything on Taylor's debut album. I think it's probably 9th out of 9 if you had everyone rank their faves & average it out. So you just have to grade these differently than someone on their 5th or 10th album. It's an impressive start for her for sure. (Finished watching reaction video) šŸ™‚

Jenna Aguirre

Please review Gracie Abrams’ album This Is What It Feels Like (produced by Aaron) and Lizzy McAlpine’s album five seconds flat (she has collabs w/ FINNEAS and Jacob Collier)! Both are so good lyrically and melodically. I would love to see you two react!

Jenna Aguirre

Yes please react to Gracie. She’s literally a lyrical genius and outro queen

Jenna Aguirre

I second this! It’s produced by Aaron and Taylor herself said she needed 5-7 business years to recover from the song Rockland lol

anya

Yes five seconds flat omgggg

Julia

Guyyyys Maisie commented on your YouTube video!

Alice

PLEASE READ US THE LOVER DIARIES!!!!!!

Alejandro Balcazar

No because I immediately knew what song you were going to sing at the beginning of "villain" haha I thought of renegade right away. Also I think these kind of videos are fun, like the idea of listening to new artists that we know for a fact that taylor has inspired and kind off trying to connect their music to taylor's songs is such a fun idea. You guys should dive into Lizzy McAlpine's "five seconds flat" ... I know she probably isn't very much taylor swift related, but I'm sure you guys will enjoy her music/lyrics.

Jenna Aguirre

That album gives me very much Phoebe Bridgers vibes, which I love

Luli Diaz

I thought Em was gonna go ā€œRebekah rode up on the afternoon trainā€ over the top of Villain and I started singing with her and… no HAHAHAHA PS: I’m fathoming that there’s certain concepts she repeats throughout the album (drivers license, at least I’m trying, sharing earphones, guess I misunderstood,hollow …) it almost seems to intentional to be random. could this mean something if looked as a whole or am I just overthinking?

Sarah McKee

I would LOVE for you guys to react to Phoebe Bridgers!!! She is seriously so so so good I just know you guys will love her… plus Taylor loves her too!ā¤ļøā¤ļøā¤ļø

alexis sugg

yes i would love a lizzy reactions five seconds flat blew me away <3

Joe Weaver

Alright, so watching this last night seems to have influenced my brain cause I had Psycho stuck in my head all day. Just saw the beginning again cause I went to see Maisie's comment on YT. Emily holding those Lover diaries so tightly made me laugh.

Maria Carmen

Can't believe Maisie commented your video guys!!! She's so cute and you are iconiccccc 🌻

Gab

So funny and cute to me because I know Cate’s brother in real life and he was one of my friend’s first kiss in high school šŸ˜…ā¤ļøā¤ļø

ChloƩ Mo

I think you would LOVE her EP Dressed Too Nice For A Jacket!!!!!! lots more acoustic tracks and beautiful songwriting šŸ’•

Claudia Vargas

you guys should seriously react to Gracie Abrams and Lizzy McAlpine's latest projects! (this is what it feels like and five seconds flat). Both are amazing songwriters and I think you'll like their sound more!

Hanna Kulla

you both look offensive in this🄰

Tara Bartley

Obsessedddddd with five seconds flat

Ambika Rao

So I’ve been listening to a lot more of maisie’s songs past this album since people mentioned she had a lot of really great songs previously….how are we not talking about the list??? Such a good song!

Taya Leggett

Loved this so much. I hadn’t heard the album before this either so was so excited to finally see a video of you hearing something for the first time while I was too! If you’re ever looking for more artists to react to I reccomend Holly Humberstone if you haven’t heard her songs before, she gives me a mix of Taylor and Maisie vibes, love her lyrics and feel like you guys might too!! I don’t think she has an album yet but ā€˜The Walls Are Way Too Thin’ EP has 6 songs and they’re all superiorrrrrr 🄰
