The amount of wine references there are in all of Taylor’s songs is uncanny

it was so nice throwing big parties jump into the pool from the balcony // filled the pool with the champagne and swam with the big names // i don't swim and you're not in love and you only kissed me after midnight in an outdoor pool // aquamarine moonlit swimming pool what if all i need is you // in the winter in the icy outdoor pool when you jumped in first i went in too i'm with you even if it makes me blue // so can we kiss in your swimming pool, in this bathing suit, i would die for you // i'll be swimming in the pools of your fragrance, when you're in proximity i'm totally weightless // while i bathe in cliffside pools with my calamitous love and insurmountable grief

[taylor-being-a-mastermind]

Jump into the pool from the balcony, everyone swimming in a champagne sea // Filled the pool with champagne, and swam with the big names

This Is Why We Can't Have Nice Things (reputation) // the last great american dynasty (folklore)

Speaking of spirits- I read SB (around 2015) opened BM Distillery & BM Racing company. (BTW- Their hand sanitizer got recalled.) Probably needed to liquidate assets for other biz interest. So she probably sensed his priority - sell BMLG & publishing (he had renegotiated distributing rights). He sold it but was able to remain as CEO for BMLG & receive HYBE shares. Racing was his passion- plus he races & he got the spotlight there.

It made me think of some drink references (not all listed)

Closure: "Don't treat me like some situation that needs to be handled I'm fine with my spite [The Archer: And I cut off my nose just to spite my face][Soon You’ll Get Better: I know delusion when I see it in the mirror][Anti-Hero: I’ll stare directly at the sun but never in the mirror] And my tears And my beers and my candles I can feel you smoothing me over"

London Boy: "And you know I love Springsteen, faded blue jeans, Tennessee whiskey"

This Is Me Trying: "Pouring out my heart to a stranger but I didn’t pour the whiskey"

King Of My Heart: "Up on the roof with a school girl crush, drinking beer out of plastic cups"

Dress: "I’m spilling wine in the bathtub, you kiss my face and we’re both drunk"

Ivy: "Or dare to sit and watch what we’ll become and drink my husband’s wine"

Question…?: "It was one drink after another"

Dear Reader: "I prefer hiding in plain sight, my fourth drink in my hand"

This Is Why We Can’t Have Nice Things: "Jump into the pool from the balcony, everyone swimming in a champagne sea"

The Last Great American Dynasty: "Filled the pool with champagne and swam with the big names"

Off track: I noticed a lot of celebrities have mentioned abstaining from alcohol like J Mayer, K Perry, T Holland, M Johnson. (A couple had alcohol issues though.

Yea it’s real easy for celebrities to fall into alcoholism. They have to go to all these events & parties and there is always booze.

[likeadevils]

the tlgad anon wasn't me but to me it seems like it could be: her reputation is the last great american dynasty, and it's in tatters. and there goes the loudest woman this town has ever seen! and she did something bad, but why'd it feel so good? why did she have a marvelous time ruining everything? there goes the most shameless woman this town has ever seen. she felt like gatsby for that whole year, filled the pool with champagne and swam with the big names and blew through the money on the boys and losing on card game bets. and in a feud with her neighbor all the liars are calling her one. and in the death of her reputation she felt truly alive.

hmmm. okay i see the vision now but im still not sure if i agree

Filled the pool with champagne and swam with the big names and blew through the money on the boys and the ballet = instant serotonin

[oh-my-damn]

She stole his dog and dyed it key lime green//

I never understood this lyrics lol like why key lime green? Does it have a special meaning behind it? Why the dog

Lmaoooo so many questions

Are you asking me to break down the lyrics to that song?

You know what? I don't care if you don't. Because here it fucking goes. This song is phenomenal and SO IMPORTANT when it comes to the modern day woman.

Rebekah rode up on the afternoon train It was sunny Her saltbox house on the coast Took her mind off St. Louis (Leaving her past life behind) Bill was the heir to the Standard Oil name and money And the town said, "How did a middle-class divorcée do it?" (Other people already questioning her, we all know what they're thinking)

The wedding was charming, if a little gauche There's only so far new money goes (recently rich) They picked out a home and called it "Holiday House" Their parties were tasteful, if a little loud (because they're not old money. They're new rich) The doctor had told him to settle down (bloodpressure issues, he was older) It must have been her fault his heart gave out (blaming the young wife, as it goes)

And they said "There goes the last great American dynasty" "Who knows if she never showed up, what could've been" "There goes the maddest woman this town has ever seen" "She had a marvelous time ruinin' everything"

(all words on how she was at fault for him dying, and it is all her fault. THE WOMAN.)

Rebekah gave up on the Rhode Island set, forever Flew in all her Bitch Pack friends from the city (bitch pack also means boss bitch friends, it all depends on who is providing the narrative. AKA it was successful women) Filled the pool with champagne and swam with the big names And blew through the money on the boys and the ballet And losin' on card game bets with Dalí (just wanna point out that if a man had done this it would have been translated into him "living his life" or "finding purpose after losing his wife")

And they said "There goes the last great American dynasty" "Who knows if she never showed up, what could've been" "There goes the most shameless woman this town has ever seen" "She had a marvelous time ruinin' everything" (She is what remains of the "legacy" and the is not living up to expectations, despite, had she been a male, the tune would be vastly different)

They say she was seen on occasion (in hiding, just like TS once had to do) Pacing the rocks, staring out at the midnight sea And in a feud with her neighbor She stole his dog and dyed it key lime green (this is all pointing towards her "irrational behavior" despite it being most likely in response to what her neighbors/"friends" put her through. She was being judged irrationally and she reacted irrationally, like a man would.) 50 years is a long time Holiday House sat quietly on that beach Free of women with madness, their men and bad habits (Once again, the focus being on "women being mad for living how rebekah lived" and not on the fact that a lot of it would be normal had she been a man. Even more pointed out by addressing male behavior as "bad habits") And then it was bought by me (the new lineage of Rebekah's aka Taylor aka boss bitches)

Who knows if I never showed up what could've been (the men probably wish she didn't but here she is) There goes the loudest woman this town has ever seen (male narrative) I had a marvelous time ruinin' everything (female narrative)

I had a marvelous time ruinin' everything A marvelous time ruinin' everything A marvelous time I had a marvelous time

She ends it off by punctuating the female narrative. So empowering. LOVE IT.

The entire song is an ode to how the "last great american dynasty" is ruined by a woman. AKA the dynasty is not meant to include a woman. It only exist with a man.

But should it?

it's important to me that you guys know that these are their very first wire messages . @prscttss

the last great american dynasty -- Taylor Swift

Rebekah gave up on the Rhode Island set, forever Flew in all her Bitch Pack friends from the city Filled the pool with champagne and swam with the big names And blew through the money on the boys and the ballet And losin' on card game bets with Dalí

And they said "There goes the last great American dynasty" "Who knows if she never showed up, what could've been" "There goes the most shameless woman this town has ever seen" "She had a marvelous time ruinin' everything"

The soft melancholia of just letting go of those family expectations because there's nothing left of the name.

Rebekah rode up on the afternoon train

It was sunny

Her saltbox house on the coast

Took her mind off St. Louis

Bill was the heir to the Standard Oil name and money

And the town said, "How did a middle-class divorcée do it?"

The wedding was charming, if a little gauche

There's only so far new money goes

They picked out a home and called it "Holiday House"

Their parties were tasteful, if a little loud

The doctor had told him to settle down

It must have been her fault his heart gave out

And they said

"There goes the last great American dynasty"

"Who knows if she never showed up, what could've been"

"There goes the maddest woman this town has ever seen"

"She had a marvelous time ruinin' everything"

50 years is a long time

Holiday House sat quietly on that beach

Free of women with madness, their men and bad habits

And then it was bought by me

Who knows if I never showed up what could've been

There goes the loudest woman this town has ever seen

I had a marvelous time ruinin' everything

I had a marvelous time ruinin' everything

A marvelous time ruinin' everything

A marvelous time

I had a marvelous time

With a made-up name, in the angel's city, chasing fortune and fame // Filled the pool with champagne and swam with the big names // I was making my own name, chasing that fame
