"My heart had been frozen, deep blue but you painted me golden..."

"A RED rose grew up out of iced frozen ground with no one around to tweet it."

"About a girl who was frozen in time"

"I'm setting off... it's time to go... but not without my muse..."

Y'all...

She posted today on INFINITY ♾. 👀

a few age related observations & easter egg clownery

So first, Taylor's current age is 31.

In All Too Well (The Short Film), Taylor highlights being 21 years old. Then, later in the film, we cut to 13 years later.

21 + 13 = 34 years old

ATW10 book release Taylor was 34 years old

And then, we got this detail from Jimmy Fallon where Taylor mentions hinting at something 3 years in advance.

Remember Taylor today is 31.

31 + 3 = 34 years old

Taylor also mentions in this interview that she actively sought to incentivize fan to read her lyrics with her coded messages. And that her lyrics, her words, are what she is most proud of in her career.

We've been seeing certain hints toward Speak Now as of late.

I must also remind you of this very important line from the Speak Now prologue. (I had this in a draft on November 1st and should've posted it then!)

Furthermore, I saw it suggested somewhere that the very title cards throughout the short film were chapter titles to ATW10 Taylor's book.

Long story short, I unabashedly in full clownery predict Taylor is planning on releasing a tell-all memoir like the ATW10 version of herself did. Furthermore, with the various Speak Now easter eggs we've seen lately, I also predict that Speak Now will be coming soon and that this "book millions might read someday" will be in our hands in about 3 years time

I believe this is something she's been planning for a while. And I can't wait to hear what she's been waiting to say!

lets check out this timeline, shall we?

may 3rd 2016: taylor “”“"meets”“”“ buzz cut joe, falls for his ”“”“"gorgeous”“”“ face instantly, only to dance w / tom hiddleston - all while having a boyfriend

june 1st 2016: tayvin ENDS and the heavens open up on this glorious day!!!!

june 15th 2016: taylor and tom snog oh so privately on the beach. thus implying the start of their relationship. (despite being secretly in love w/ joe all along i guess??)

all summer long the two fly around the world together. totally a love that’s a “secret im hoping dreaming dying to keep”. joe is apparently her friend throughout all of this - emotional cheating, anyone????

august 3rd 2016: karlie’s 24th birthday

she posts a picture of taylor wearing this outfit:

and later on an “”“unkown”“”“ date, taylor just happens to be recording the back up vocals (implying the vocals are almost done, and thus implying taylor was trying to finish up a demo for SOME REASON on THIS date) wearing the same outfit:

but wait you say: ISN’T SHE STILL WITH TOM????

you right fam. which leaves three choices:

the song is for tom - despite dumping him a month later and having absolutely NO secrecy to hope and dream and die to keep about the relationship, and having met three months ago not “a few weeks ago”

the song is for joe - while she’s with tom. um cheater cheater pumpkin eater miss swift!!!!! do we really want to believe this is the option over her having a beard???

the song (’s demo) is a birthday present for miss kloss

but wait!!! there’s more!!!!

september 7th 2016: hiddlestunt ends. shouldve known she’d be the first to leave!

september 17th 2016: taylor is spotted in nashville wearing this outfit:

which we later see on an “”“"unknown”“”“ date during what sounds like the final production of komh:

(she is wearing a sweater over the shirt, same hat, hair, and makeup doe!!!!!)

sure her and joe could have been ”“”“secretly seeing”“”“ each other romantically a mere ten days after her last relationship ended. sure she decided he was the king of her heart a mere ten days or less into the relationship. or she was cheating long before.

but!!!!!

“we met a few weeks ago”

the met gala was four months and two weeks ago. um. not really a few weeks. (this also seems the most likely as dress says “flashback when you met me / your buzzcut my hair bleached”)

OR if they met on october 12th 2016:

which implies the song to have been written after late november of 2016 (“i recall late november”) which would place their meeting at “a few weeks ago”

OR

implies their meeting was september 28th 2016 (“do you remember the 28th night of september”), widely assumed to be their anniversary, and would place the writing of the song to be in october/november 2016…..(both options which would require us to ignore the meeting lyrics in dress)

then how was she recording the finishing touches on king of my heart on september 17th 2016?

yes miss swift, where was that alone time if the earliest possible date you recorded your love song for joe was a mere ten days after you dumped your last boyfriend? cheater cheater pumpkin eater seems a better option than this

to yall, hmmmm antis?

👀

So it's JUST A COINCIDENCE that on December 4th, 2014 Taylor Swift and Karlie Kloss were seen making out at a "The 1975" concert during the song "Girls" where the lyrics include: "Bite your face to spite your nose." Where Taylor is seen, before the kissing, POINTING TO HER NOSE. And then she makes an album called, "Lover" where her 5th song called, "Archer" has the lyrics: "cut off my nose to spite my face." 👀👀👀👀👀 THAT'S JUST A COINCIDENCE?!?!?!

Just because I notice things...thought trail

Chunga munga is the cowardly lion from The Wizard of Oz (bow on his tail)

Which made me think of these red shoes from Taylor’s post

Which reminded me of the Tim Walker shoot Karlie posted last year around this time reminiscing (she was Dorothy)

October 2010 W mag Tim walker shoot

Which made me think of the song Somewhere Over The Rainbow that Karlie added to her “good morning” playlist on 3/8/21

There are only 3 songs on the playlist

The playlist is 13 mins long.

Which made me of course think of this connection

And just throwing these in for good measure

Are we on the Red Brick road right now ?

The Bejeweled music video hints at a major transformation...

The visuals in this scene are clear references to a moment in Frozen 2 where Elsa makes a major transformation.

Elsa is singing the song "Show Yourself." The lyrics are very reminiscent of Taylor's "meet me at midnight" sentiment.

I have always been a fortress

Cold secrets deep inside

You have secrets, too

But you don't have to hide

The song builds and builds with the theme of meeting your true self.

The scene shows Elsa aligning all the jewels just right while singing "don't make me wait one moment more!"

And the entire world opens up

It is at this point that she transforms.

Show yourself

Step into the power

Grow yourself

Into something new

You are the one you've been waiting for

All of my life

All of your life

Oh, show yourself

So let's assume the sparkle represents Taylor's true self (as she's shown us again and again in other mvs) and the cloak references reputation (using a self made shield to hide your true self), then on floor 3 she removes the cloak and affixes larger colorful jewels directly to her body. When she enters floor 5, she's already super confident and dripping in diamonds.

My theory is that Taylor will transform herself in the public's eye during the Speak Now tv, to allow her to fully step into 1989 tv era with confidence, and as her true self.

New thoughts about YNCD video - Part 1

I'm new here so not quite sure if these ideas had been discussed before... just to write down and share. Happy reading!

On top of the LGBTQ+ related Easter Eggs hidden everywhere of the video, I think Tay also gave us lots of hints about the songs in the Lover album.

^ Cruel Summer

Devil roll the dice

^ Lover (Karlie)

^ The Man

^ The Archer

^ I think He Knows

He got my heart beat skipping down 16th avenue
