After a few listens, I must say,evermoreabsolutely fucks.
If this is trulyfolkloressister, then itsfolkloresmore powerful, hulking sister.
Heres my analysis of every song.
willow
God, there are so many Easter eggs inthe willow music video this is exhausting.
The piano intro alone is enough to politely tap me over the edge.
J*e also co-wrote exile and betty onfolklore.
Im not quite ready to spell his name without an asterisk, but these things take time.
What was I talking about?
Oh yeah, this song is about heartbreak or whatever.
So, yeah, read a fucking book.
tis the damn season
Likefolkore, evermorefeaturesanthology stories written from characters perspectivesrather than Swifts POV.
tis the GODDAMN season for THAT.
A lovers ambivalent toleration is the most harrowing to me, personally.
Cover me in moss and dew and lay me next to a damp log to suffer through this album.
The song follows a woman named Este (named for Este Haim) whose husband cheats on her.
Swift toldEntertainment Weekly,Long story short, Im the 4th Haim sister now, confirmed.
Can I just say: Writing fanfic about a Haim girl is extremely fucking queer.
Writing yourself in as the fourth Haim sister?
Thats gay, luv.
Being in cahoots over a life insurance policy?
Im sorry, this song is aboutA Simple Favor I will not be explaining.
dorothea
Much like thefolkloretrack betty, dorothea is written from a male perspective.
Im actually not mad about it anymore and feel really good about this.
Honestly, Dorothea needs to leave this Christian flop behind and go back to being a lifeless atheist.
A hometown b*yfriend who is probably Republican???
In this Great Depression????
coney island (ft. J*e okay fine, Im choosing to show growth here Joe Alwyn.
The song is a teary ode to a lover who passed away.
She sings, Did I close my fist around something delicate?
Did I shatter you?
And then I shattered so quickly and so violently that I became gay sand.
ivy
Sagittarius Season is upon us, folx.
Taylor, noted Sag, says she releasedevermoretocelebrateher 31st birthday, which is December 13.
The belief in extreme literary phenomena like fatal flaws!
The use of the word cursed!
I cannot read nor do math just give it to me straight.
So, cowboy like me is about scamming rich people something we can and should do.
long story short
Reportedly, this is the most autobiographical song onevermore.
So, some fansthinkits a Hiddleston allusion, a Hiddleusion.
Im joking (barely).
marjorie
I lovewholesome grandparent content.
Onfolklore,the 13th track is about Swifts grandfather.
Onevermore,track 13 eulogizes her grandmother Marjorie Finlay, who was an opera singer.
Honestly, I respect a woman who beefs.
This whole album is Taylor just absolutely mad with power, swinging her strap around post-Grammy noms.
Its nice that she lets him do things now.
Shes like, Oh, you want to be a musician?
Ok not now, mommys busy.
Go play with your lil piano and make beep beep.
Its a pandemic depression anthem.
The lyrics Gray November, Ive been down since July and Hey December, guess Im feeling unmoored resonate.
