"And so we have brought the folklore cabin all the way to Paris! folklore was an album that I wrote—this album, I started writing it two days into the pandemic, and it really defines that time in my life for me. I look back on it and I think about how making this album, it really was a way for me to stay connected to you guys, because that’s really important part of my life and my emotional process, you know? Ever since I was 12 years old and I started writing songs, I would feel something, and then write about it, and hope that one day I’d get to play it for you, and see if you had ever felt the same way as I was feeling. And when you sing along to the words of the songs it makes me feel like no matter how far apart we live geographically, no matter what we’re going through, if we’ve all maybe felt that way one way or another, we weren’t alone in feeling that way. So thank you for that! With folklore, I did something a little different. I started making up fictionalized storylines and characters, and making them fall in love, and make them break up, and one of my favorite characters to sing about from folklore is a girl named Betty!"
— Taylor before playing betty in Paris, France on May 9th
Every time I listen to the Bolter I wonder if "ended with the slam of a door, then he’ll call her a whore" is a reference / connection to "lock broken, slur spoken".
Hey there, I feel like this is a necessary post because we have some Brazilian girlies here.
The southern state of Brazil, my state, is literally underwater right now, thousands of people lost their homes, some died and some are missing due to heavy flooding. If you're in one of the affected areas, please be careful, pay attention to the news as some emergency numbers aren't working anymore, they're sharing new ones. Seek safe shelter, either with family members or the public ones. There's also a risk of dam failure, the Civil Defense is constantly updating on those, be aware to know when you have to evacuate the area. If you can help with donations or even sharing the news to get to more people, you're more than welcome. I'll leave some links showing how to help. Please be safe, it's a disaster out there! And no matter what your personal belief is, please pray for those people.
actually think “i’ve seen this episode but still love the show” is one of the most intense lyrics in the album. what a way to comment on returning to old patterns and people even if they hurt you, the comfort of the familiar, trying to love all parts of someone through repeated instances of something bad, trying to reassure yourself it’s worth it.
