Let's talk about RED (Taylor's Version)

by - November 23, 2021

 

Red is about to be mine again, but it has always been ours. Tonight we begin again. 💕


Yay! So last week, my girl Taylor released her version of her fourth album RED. To be honest, Red is not really my number 1 favorite album/era of Taylor but my goodness, the songs in RED are all so good. If you will ask me what my favorite album is I'd say Speak Now because it makes me feel young again but I somehow relate to both Red and Reputation albums. Anyway, it took me a while to write about Red TV because I wanted to have a listen first and savor each masterpiece. (Also memorize the 10-minute version of all too well)


My favorites from the original tracks of RED:

Treacherous

Favorite Lyrics: I'd be smart to walk away, but your quicksand // Forever going with the flow but you're friction

State of Grace

Favorite Lyrics: So you were never a saint And I've loved in shades of wrong // We learn to live with the pain, Mosaic broken hearts // But this love is brave and wild

The Moment I Knew

Favorite Lyrics: And what do you do when the one who means the most to you Is the one who didn't show?

and ofc All Too Well

Favorite Lyrics: And you call me up again just to break me like a promise // So casually cruel in the name of being honest

Now! I'm gonna be ranking the tracks From the Vault, it's hard because I love them all! 💕 

All Too Well (10 MV)

Favorite Lyrics: 

There we are again when nobody had to know -- you kept me like a secret but I kept you like an oath // Sacred prayer and we'd swear to remember it all too well

They say all's well that ends well but I'm in a new hell every time you double-cross my mind // You said if we had been closer in age maybe it would have been fine and that made me want to die //  Did the twin flame bruise paint you blue? // Just between us, did the love affair maim you, too? //

Nothing New (Ft Phoebe Bridgers)

Favorite Lyrics:  How can a person know everything at eighteen, but nothin' at twenty-two? // And will you still want me when I'm nothin' new?

Better Man

Favorite Lyrics: We might still be in love if you were a better man // You would've been the one if you were a better man

Message in a Bottle

Favorite Lyrics: Message in a bottle is all I can do; standin' here, hopin' it gets to you 

I Bet You Think About Me (Ft Chris Stapleton)

Favorite Lyrics: But it turned out I'm harder to forget than I was to leave // I bet you think about me when you say: "Oh my God, she's insane, she wrote a song about me"

Forever Winter

Favorite Lyrics: I'll be summer sun for you forever, forever winter if you go

The Very First Night

Favorite Lyrics:
And so it was, we never saw it comin'
Not tryin' to fall in love, but we did like children runnin'
Back then we didn't know we were built to fall apart
We broke the status quo, then we broke each other's hearts 

Run (Ft Ed Sheeran)

Favorite Lyrics: I could see this view a hundred times, pale blue sky reflected in your eyes // So give me a reason and don't say no

Babe (I love love love this song, but I was in love with the Sugarland version first)

Favorite Lyrics: What a waste, taking down the picture and the plans we made // This is the last time I'll ever call you babe

Overall! I really love the entire album including all the songs from the vault! I can listen to it all day. And oh, how can I forget the All Too Well (TV 10MV) Short film with Sadie and Dylan. 😭💔💗


What a great year to be a Swiftie, right? Thank you Taylor for saving my heart this year! 💓

XO,
Ria
