Question is written in ancient hieroglyphics found only on the walls of caves carved by the earliest peoples, tribes we don't understand, though they are our ancestors. (Patreon)

There is a subliminal message hidden deep within the synths...there is something sinister and dark and impossible to understand...Dylan O'Brien is there, too...something is not fucking clicking about this song...never in the history of Swiftiedom has a song been SO CERTAINLY about a specific person, only for that entire thing to unravel right before our eyes.

Let's be clear - the only reason that anyone was so fucking certain that Question was about Harry Styles is because she goes "...I remember" in the beginning of the song, which we immediately assumed was a reference to a little ditty by the name of Out of the Woods. But frankly, "I remember" is something she's said many times. A case could be made for "I remember" being a reference to fucking All Too Well. There are many many things she could be remembering. SHE COULD BE REMEMBERING ANYTHING...in hindsight, I'm asking myself...why would this song be about Harold? Only because we were so sure it was HE who was the one who got away. Now I'm not so sure. I'm not so sure. I really am not sure. 

Here's what I know. She got up on that stage tonight in the pouring rain at Gilette Stadium and she strummed her guitar and giggled and said "you guys, I am the happiest I have ever been, and not just about the tour, it feels like my life is finally making sense." Now, first, massive shade at Joe. We chuckle.

And then she launches into QUESTION. SORRRYRYYYYYY WHY WOULD SHE INTRODUCE A SONG ABOUT HARRY STYLES WITH I'M SOOO HAPPY NEVER BEEN HAPPIER LOOVVEEE MY LIFE??? HARRY ISN'T THERE. HARRY HAS NEVER BEEN THERE. PACK IT UP HAYLORS IT'S OVER FOR YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Like do the math. Does anyone still honestly believe it's about Harry Styles. DO THE MATH.

Harry was a safe bet mostly bc it was never gonna happen and if it did it’d be FINEEE NOW ITS NOT FINE

Ally ❤️

Possibly an Easter egg (dare I say it??) for the rumored Harry/Taylor Style remix. There’s trademark/licensing for it 🤔

Kourtney

this COULD be like how Taylor tried to trick us all into thinking that IKYWT was about Harry when it’s absolutely not

Alison Smith

My mind is raaaaacing, I can't believe she saaaaaid that! It's also a big "fuck you" to the #speakupnow people 😬

leah

question was on the 1975’s pre-show playlist…

emma 🌷

i’m nervous for when the 1975 start touring again bc matty truly has no filter

Drose

She won the iheartmusic award for best sample for sampling ootw in question so that’s definitely true

em

i think this is on the list of one of the most unhinged things she’s done… like either she’s seen none of the backlash or she really doesn’t care

Nitya Kadambi

I need peer reviewed academic essays on this shit to make it make sense

Ashley C

Cricket. I'm not even a haylor but I love the lore of question being about him

Mary Paige

You know… I thought I knew a lot about this woman but she’s proving me more and more wrong every day

Aloha Record Sargent

So much shade in Joe's direction with that speech! There must have been quite a lot going on behind the scenes of that relationship. But there *always* is, so it's not really that surprising now that I think about it. Still think Question? has to be about Harry, although maybe she's re-imagining it (kind of like how she mouthed "This is about you. You know who you are" during Cardigan, when we know that song is not about Matty).

Halle

I think she’s repurposed it for Matty tonight, but I can’t ignore the “I remember” sample. And it’s not just the words “I remember” but the melody in singing those two words is identical.

Gracie Day

It screams Harry at me. As someone who has written songs and played them live, I’ve often fabricated the truth about the origin of certain songs. It wouldn’t surprise me at all if she repurposed this tune to rewrite her current reality. Taylor has always been literal and obvious to a fault from her capitalizing letters in early liner notes to her non-mysterious Broadway staging/storytelling of her Fearless and Speak Now tours. The fact that she sampled Out of the Woods is too literal and aligned with pointing at Harry. I’m not even a Haylor, but if it’s about Matty… like what the fuck, I need a hell of a lot more info.

Taralynn

I think it is absolutely hilarious how she announces that she feels like her life is finally making sense and then proceeds throw everyone else's lives into complete disarray.

Angela H

Reading this just made me lol several times. But for REAL this was such insane behavior tonight. The first time I heard question I immediately was like OUT OF THE WOODS , HARRY STYLES, CASE CLOSED. It still didn’t make a ton of sense but I was always just like well I guess somehow this is about him, Taylor knows. But this situation tonight was in DIFFERENT AREAS. Is this revisionist history? Was this the actual reality the entire time and was just obscured by several other false narratives and Trojan horses?? We have no solid foundation on which to stand at this point. She’s gone rogue. Everything in the swift cinematic universe is called into qiestion(…?) at this point. It’s like that part in the avengers movie when thanos makes like half the main characters disappear instantly and you’re like …. So the movie is over, that’s really how it ends…? 🤯

Liv

Alternative take: she says all of this on a night he is not present, and sings a song that is likely not about him. I don’t know what it means, but I do know the woman is unhinged. Glad she feels like her life makes sense because she’s the only one. I do think this might be more of a screw you to Joe than anything else

Cameron

the 1 must also be examined…….

Dia

It’s about Harry for sure, she’s just having a giggle.

Dia

No way did Matty kiss her in a crowded room, we would know or see pics. Harry is the king lost one, Matty is new and filling a vibe for her.

Bre Mercadefe

As a haylor soldier she’s just projecting onto another British man about Harry lol. She chose the wrong British man all those years ago and now she’s just giving the middle finger. Haylor 4ever tho

Eva

I think her playing question after stating that she’s never been happier is her saying: “See, this is what happens when you DON’T put up more of a fight. I’m with someone else now and I’m thriving! Now you wish you could still touch me, huh?”, to Harry. Question is still about him, but instead of “no-one can ever take your place” it’s now giving “you snooze, you lose, bitch!”

lyrium

it's giving Cassie from Euphoria tbh

Marta Boldú

All of those who still think it’s about harry are in denial.

Julia A

no because this is truly the most perplexing, unhinged song in her discography. “#speakupnow” is everywhere on social media. The heirloom turkey is apparently “distraught and slighted” over everything. And she got up on that stage and said “this is the happiest I’ve ever been and tour is NOT the only reason.” The answer has to lie in question…? I need to know what makes sense now to her. Literally I have about 87 trillion questions myself

Ariel

My twitter time line (ppl who love both taylor and matty) was actually talking about Question might be about matty few days ago bc the half moon eye, gender roles and politics is more fitting when describing him and the "I remember" is like a response to the lyric of 1975 song About You, "Do you think I have forgotten". And they are also talking about that Question was played before one of the 1975 show, and About You was played with the music video of Lover before one of the Eras Tour show.

Melissa Ann

We really need to deconstruct, dissect, and put back together again every song post 1989

lavendersnake

I was there last night—she not only said she was happy, but she said the song was associated with a lot of “happy memories” and that “my life makes sense for the first time.” Guys. It’s about Matty. It couldn’t have been clearer—how could a song about her not being satisfied with anything since meteor strike be happy otherwise?

lavendersnake

I have the full video of her introduction from lower bowl if The Snakes would like a non-grainy version lol

Kalyn

I'm not sure I've even fully processed what happened last night.

Ksenia

People in the comments here are delusionally thinking it's about Harry Styles partly because he's more conventionally attractive let's be real. Taylor and Harry dated over 10 years ago. Can we please give Taylor SOME emotional maturity that she's not THAT developmentally stuck to be hung up about a guy she dated on and off for at most 5 months total TEN YEARS AGO... Question and Glitch are about Matty Healy.

Zoe K

she’s a liar sorry !

Call interpol, she has committed international crimes. I always associate this song with Harry, obviously because of the OOTW sample. If it weren’t for the sample, it really could be anyone. Now that she’s dating Matty, and she was writing Midnights at the same time Matty was writing his latest album, also with Jack, I was wondering why Midnights didn’t have a song about Matty on it. Not saying they were having an affair, but 9 years ago they had “something” that never materialized. She went on to date Calvin and then the rest is history. He went to rehab and tried to turn his life around. They reconnected during the writing of these two albums. There certainly does not have to be a song about Matty on Midnights, but I thought the timing fit and wondered why there wasn’t. Maybe the OOTW sample is a red herring. Maybe it really is about Matty, and maybe all this time he was the one who got away. I DO think he has pined for her all this time, and think he has been in love with her for some time. I bet she resisted and just maintained their friendship until something happened with Joe. Question is the missing piece. Her life FINALLY makes sense? Shade to Joe, but also saying this for Matty. I’m sure he was watching.

Lets also look at a timeline. They first exchanged numbers and wore each other’s t-shirts in November 2014, after she attended a 1975 concert with Selena. He was touring in the US at that time. Its possible they were in contact with each other during November - December 2014. HOWEVER, his first concert of 2015, January 7, was in Japan. This included international dates all through January 2015, including many Asian countries (japan, Philippines, Thailand, China). Their tour was over at the end of January. They were not rumored to be seen together until a pic after the BRITS awards was published of them partying together at the after -party. But, Ellie Goulding introduced her to Calvin that night and she began dating him as we know. Point is, one song on Midnights does suggest something in Asia (a butterfly affect) and Matty was in Asia right after they were wearing each other’s t shirts and exchange numbers. They were never romantically linked after that to my knowledge. Could it have ended while he was in Asia?

christopher c

My read on the comment “everything in my life finally makes sense, not just this tour” is that she realized she doesn’t have to stay in a boring long relationship that doesn’t fulfill her just to appease society. She always cast Joe as someone so morally pure and put herself down (“your integrity makes me feel small”). It seems she has let go of that and is just accepting her chaotic impulse for a thrilling relationship.

Rachel O

I think it was originally about Harry but she is revising history (as she loves to do!) and as is her right I guess

N K03

She did say it brings back ‘fond memories’ though which makes me think that it is about Matty.

laura

What the fuck did Joe Alwyn do to her???? She is weaponizing this fetus of a relationship in a disproportionate way— UNLESS there is way more that we don’t know.

Cara M

I love how your writing is exactly like your speaking voice

Alie

I can't believe this is even being called into Question...? but for those who REALLY think it's about Matty and not Harry... aside from the obvious "I remember" which should get rid of any doubts right away but since that isn't enough for y'all I will go in depth. Big city, wrong choices - obviously New York, 1989 era vibes, etc., "You painted all my nights a colour I've searched for since" parallels "the rest of the world was black & white, but we were in screaming colour" , ONE THING after another, referencing 1D song One Thing, "did you wish you put up more of a fight, when she said it was too much" parallels "remember when you couldn't take the heat, I walked out I said I'm setting you free" she ended things with him because of the media frenzy, why would she have said it was too much with Matty? What was too much? Absolutely nothing....anyways this would not be the first time she pretended a song was about someone else, she did it when she pretended IKYWT was about Harry. I for one am sick of this revisionist history and will not stand for it.

Elizabeth V.

May 20th (yesterday lol) was the one year anniversary of Harry’s album. I refuse to believe it’s about Matty, REFUSE!!! Aaaand now I’m going to head over to YouTube and watch Zachary’s making of a playlist for girls who live in delusion 🫶🏻

Standard Oil Name

Wait! What if “Did you realize out of time / She was on your mind with some dickhead guy / that you saw that night / when you were on something” is about how Matty realized he was out of time (missed his chance) the night they all attended the 2015 Brit awards and Taylor met/got with dickhead guy (Calvin) there?? (In fairness I have never thought this song seemed like Harry, it always seemed like the guy was a mess and the situation was more complicated than what happened with Harry (who we know is not that complex sorry Haylors but he’s sweet and not super smart)).

Clash Fan

I would like to point out that she didn't sing the "I remember" part last night. I think that is significant.

Dani O

blondie loves to rewrite history

Herberta Cain

Always cry bc Anthony Fantano shat all over this song saying it was corny romcom drivel. WE ARE TALKING ABOUT TAYLOR SWIFT. HER LIFE IS JUST LIKE THAT

Gracie Day

What does Zack say? He was convinced Question was for Harry

Clash Fan

I had this thought today. What if the "I remember" is not a reference to the person she wrote OOTW about but the meaning of that song? It's about the anxiety of wondering if a relationship is on solid gournd, right? What if she is just saying that she has the same anxiety surrounding the relationship in Question? Does not mean they are about the same person at all.

So I’ve been thinking about the Midnights songs a lot in light of the series of events that have happened since it’s release… are they about who we thought they were about last fall or are some of them actually really about Joe now that we know their relationship was on a decline?? My current working hypothesis is that our original sleuthing that different songs were about different past relationships is still correct… and actually makes even more sense now than it did before. We were all gagged to think she was reminiscing on Harry, Lautner, Jake, JM, and maybe others because it seemed like the actions of a crazy person. Why would someone supposedly so solidly in love and in a long term relationship with her current guy be waking up at night thinking about past relationships?? Well, knowing now that her relationship with the heirloom turkey wasn’t as happy and carefree as we all thought, I understand even more why she would have been pondering old relationships to try and figure out why another has fallen apart. Or if maybe “The One” for her had already gotten away because of bad timing or something else, such as her career or her fame making the relationship untenable. So I do think her dying relationship with Joe and her striving to keep it alive by analyzing her past and seeing certain patterns influenced the songs, but I still think the context in them that we tied to past relationships is still correct.
