[bees-bees-fear]

Shake It Off is just as bad as Me! but nobody is ready to have that conversation

[thekelceswiftera]

@taylorswift you and Travis are a clue in the New York Times crosswords minis…..

[taylortaylortaylor13]

Listen friends, if we can pester Taylor into releasing 10 minute All Too Well and Snow on the Beach (feat more Lana), we can pester her to add “Hey kids, spelling is fun!” Back into Me!

[ilostyou]

swifttok is so wrong for being genuinely upset at rumors that taylor is soundchecking me! as if it's not one of her biggest mainstream-est well-known singles AND as if it's not a whole bop

[taylortaylortaylor13]

You know what, I’ve been quiet long enough.

I like “Hey kids, spelling is fun!”

It’s the cherry on top of a syrupy sweet-glitter gel pen bop

It was ahead of its time, unexpected, makes you think

I absolutely think Taylor should bring it back

If she plays Me during the Eras tour I will be Screaming it

[lipslikethegardensofbabylon]

Lover is one of my absolutely favorite albums from Taylor. Her first fully owned baby, inspired by the depths of love of every kind and the fears of losing it. The ethereal garden beach photoshoot, the unapologetic heart eyes and romanticism. The fuzzy guitar in Lover sounding like a dream, the heartbreaking duality in The Archer for women everywhere because they see right through me, can you see right through me? I see right through me, the flirty little bop of I Think He Knows (boy I understand), the tender romance in Cornelia Street and learning it was inspired by a soaking tub looking at those very floors in the apartment! Swift at her best unhinged in my feelings more than Drake, went home and tried to stalk you on the internet, the altar is my hips self. Miss Americana, both the political stand but also the revealing documentary because it really does get loud sometimes and it is actually all just fucking impossible you know? The absolute bangers of Cruel Summer and Death By A Thousand myheartmyhipsmybodymyLOVE Cuts. During COVID, we saw her with tears in her eyes perform the song that no one ever thought they’d hear live. I just really do think that you are what you love.

Ok, if you don't want to engage in some (queer) tin foiling... scroll away.

So first off, I think this song rules. It was one of the few that I let just vibe instead of doing what my brain usually does, which is scrutinize lyrics/marvel over the layers of meaning. It feels like it has Kill Bill energy and that was good enough for me.

My Albatross variation of the TTPD vinyl showed up yesterday — TTPD is perhaps the best her team has done btw — and was pouring over the lyrics last night and paused on I Can Fix Him (No, Really I Can) in particular.

The last line has been one that most people have chuckled at. Like she spent a whole song building up this menacing conceit: "this boy is bad news, but he can't hold a candle to me — I'll handle him." Only to be like, lol jk at the end.

But seeing that last line written out this way scratched at my brain... she really doesn't scream that line at all. Why is it in all caps? And while we're at it... I mean it's an accepted spelling, but technically the incorrect spelling of 'whoa.' It kind of felt, by putting it in caps, like she was calling attention to it. Was it an acronym? Not that I could tell.

But... just to double check... how had she spelled woah/whoa prior? The only song I could think of off the top of my head to check was Better Than Revenge. When reading her lyrics you really wont find 99% of the "whoas" in her discography written because they're more like instrumentals.

And that right there is a "whoa." Of course my eyes twitched at the matching colors of the two vids, but I'll get to that. And then I was only able to find one more written "whoa."

Ok, cool.

But back to Better Than Revenge... It struck me that something had been "fixed" about the song. The famous "she's better known for things that she's done on the mattress" line had been swapped out in the rerecording for "he was a moth to the flame she was holding the matches."

So I looked back at I Can Fix Him... could this be a joke/hint about "fixing" him. Like fixing the pronouns? "WOAH" is an intentional misspelling just by comparing it to her own body of work. But it would be rather clever if the "he" she's referring to (at least on this one layer of the song) was her use of that pronoun in her work. It would make the lines "I can fix him / No, really, I can / And only I can" make even more sense, imo. She's the author of this music and she's rerecording it/making it.

What's more is that the collaged flower in the lyric booklet and the aesthetic of the lyric video are giving me um... big Reputation vibes?

Hey kids, spelling is FUN! Am I absolutely living in delulu thinking that Reputation could also be "fixed" re: pronouns? Oh, I don't doubt it. But I needed to get this out of my brain, out into the world, and let the chips fall as they may and always do.

And at least Taylor Nation is also in on the joke...
