word on the street is that taylor is set to film a music video for elizabeth taylor next week… imagine the potential old hollywood aesthetic of it all… i’m already seated

— florence + the machine, music by men

knowing the screen taylor read before getting on the eras tour stage said “have as much fun as you can! we’ve got your back!” just has me extremely emotional... like, to be shown unbridled support and encouragement like that from her tour crew speaks volumes about the kind of boss she is

what do you mean taylor came up with the idea for the eras tour about two years before it started… she’s absolutely insane

happy birthday to one of the most gut-wrenching lyrics taylor has ever written

— taylor swift, fearless prologue

fearless is one of the best title tracks of all time and i will die on this hill

— taylor swift, the trick to holding on

happy birthday to one of the softest lyrics taylor has ever written

the parallel between “how long could we be a sad song ‘til we were too far gone to bring back to life?” in you’re losing me and the lyric below captures such a significant growth of perspective

opalite (life is a song acoustic version)

her face card is so lethal

she’s so beautiful it’s crazy

— florence + the machine, sympathy magic

of the many recurring themes that are scattered across taylor’s discography, this is definitely one of the best and most compelling

florence welch on performing florida!!! with taylor on the eras tour 🤍

— florence + the machine, music by men

florence welch to rolling stone on collaborating with taylor 🤍

happy everybody scream release day to all those who celebrate

thinking at length about the parallel between “another summer, taking cover, rolling thunder” and “it’s alright, you were dancing through the lightning strikes”

happy birthday to one of the most insane lyrics taylor has ever written

— florence + the machine, sympathy magic

“the way you move is like a full-on rainstorm, and i’m a house of cards” has got to be one of the best opening lines in taylor’s entire discography

“and you come away with a great little story of a mess of a dreamer with the nerve to adore you” is one of the best lyrics taylor has ever written, and it’s crazy to think that she wrote it when she was just 15 years old

taylor received her first nomination for induction into the songwriters hall of fame? makes sense, given all too well is the best song ever written. and blank space. and mine. and cososom. and my tears ricochet. and anti-hero. and dear john. and treacherous. and cowboy like me. and-

take me back to the moment i was decoding the secret messages in the red album booklet 13 years ago ❤️

elizabeth taylor’s son, christopher wilding, on taylor writing a song referencing his mother 🤍

kind of wild to think that when taylor put this line out into the world 3 years ago, she had no idea the extent to which it would change the trajectory of her life for the better
