Paul McCartney discusses the design for Sgt Pepper with Mike Read in an interview for BBC Radio 1 (broadcast 1989)

PAUL: See I always hark back, when I'm making a record, in my mind, to me - in Liverpool I used to get on the bus, Saturday morning, go down to this big department store called Lewis's, go in the record department, get my record, that was a big favourite I'd been saving up for, get on the bus, upstairs on the bus, and unwrap it. And then I had a half hour to look at it. I couldn't play it, but I could look at it, and read the sleeve note and look at the pictures and everything. So I knew that other people would be doing that kind of thing so we designed Pepper with that in mind, you know, the person who's just been to his version of Lewis's, he's got that half hour to go home. So we'll give him masses, he could look at this one for months, you know, because after all its only cardboard and it really doesn't cost more to put a complicated picture on than it does just to put a picture of an orange, or something. READ: Of course Brian Epstein's idea was it being brown paper bags. PAUL: Well Brian was very keen on the album, we'd played it [for] him once it was all finished out at George's house. He was very sort of flamboyant [Brian impression] 'Oh! It's wonderful.' He really loved it, you know, he did this big, theatrical [Brian impression] 'Oh it's a wonderful album!' And we said 'Well we're still thinking about the cover, you know, we can't quite decide how to do the cover.' He said [Brian impression] 'Put a brown paper bag on it, it doesn't matter. It's so wonderful.'

[I’ve been living so long with my pictures of you that I almost believe that the pictures are all I can feel]

you arent born a lesbian

you see the gorgeous women in taylor swift’s bad blood music video and it TURNS YOU 

since 1989 tv is coming, heres why wonderland was about dianna agron

background information: taylor swift and dianna agron are rumoured to have dated between 2011 and 2013 and there's quite a lot of evidence to support this. they were seen together in public during this time and there are songs on both red and 1989 about her.

alice in wonderland was dianna's favourite film which is referenced in the title

'we took a wrong turn and we fell down the rabbit hole' the wrong turn could be that they started out as friends and became something more, rabbit hole is another reference to alice in wonderland and dianna's tumblr url was wefelldowntherabbithole

the spinning out of control is their relationship changing from friends to dating

'didnt you flash your green eyes at me' dianna has green eyes

'curious minds' is probably talking about them experimenting with their sexualities

'didn't it all seem new and exciting' describing a new relationship dynamic and experience of dating a woman. dianna at the time had tweeted that she was grateful for 'new changes + excitement unfolding'

they found 'wonderland' and didn't realise what they were getting into, they knew the relationship couldn't last forever

'too in love to think straight' pretty self explanatory

the public were realising what was going on between the two, there were articles about it, and dianna was asked in an interview if there was anything going on between her and taylor. it must've become difficult and frustrating to hide their relationship with the public always watching.

cheshire cat is a character in alice in wonderland, another reference to her favourite film

losing their mind probably means the stress they were put under by the public creating rumours about them

'you searched the world for something else' dianna went traveling after the breakup

by going back home she may mean returning to a life without dianna

'we both went mad' dianna had a tattoo saying 'we're all mad here' however she had the tattoo removed shortly after the song was released

I saw someone else doing this so i thought i would join in

In honor of Taylor’s 35th Birth-TAY here’s my top 13 favorite Taylor Swift songs:

1. Delicate

2. Back to December

3. Nothing New ft. Phoebe Bridgers

4. Dear John

5. New Year’s Day

6. this is me trying

7. Hits Different

8. Now That We Don’t Talk

9. Picture to Burn

10. I Hate It Here

11. Haunted

12. Our Song

13. Mean

It’s all or nothing. Sad or hype lol no in between

"Welcome to New York" 🌈

TaYLOR dOeSN't Lie

STORY a) "It's a song I wrote on my album that I wrote about moving here. I moved here very recently. I'm new to town, so I wrote it about that feeling that I got living here for the first time."

(Taylor moved to New York in 2014)

STORY b) "Well, the song is inspired by what I love about New York, which is just kind of there's a freedom to... and there's a celebration of being unique, you know? And that was something that I was very inspired by. And also I wrote the song kind of following the... when gay marriage became legal in New York. And that was something that, you know, so many of my friends, had to be kind of scrutinized for who they were in love with, you know, from the time they came out. And I just, you know, I didn't want to make a big deal of it. Because I don't think it should be a big deal who you love, you know?"

(In NY gay marriage became legal on June 24, 2011)

Taylor didn't want to make a big deal of (her coming out)... 🤷

"when you hold me, it holds me together"

okay, SO. this is something i noticed upon first watching the eras tour movie...but the other day i went back to the theater and watched it AGAIN, and this stuck out to me even more the second time.

we all know *the* taylor and karlie hug pose...you know...this one:

and it's old news by now that taylor recreated this pose with her love interest in the lover music video...

well...in the eras tour movie, the longest consecutive shot of any of the dancers during the "lover" performance is on the m/m couple....doing the kaylor hug pose...(pls ignore the photo quality lol. when it's on streaming we can circle back with more hq visuals.)

the camera lingers on this shot for a good long while, and i just think it's beautiful - and LOUD - that taylor gives the gay couple locked in the Kaylor Embrace (TM) such a long on-screen moment during this song.

Accidentally making a case for the “William Bowery is Taylor” Truthers.

Teal me about it... 😂

Karlie deleted her own birthday post "going into 31 with a heart full of gratitude"!? 👀 Wow. 💛

hear me out

I am so glad that they are back together after their "friends break".

“As far as I know, they chatted afterwards and made plans to see each other in the future." So we got "Midnights". Then the "3am Edition". Then the "Til Dawn Edition". And now I see daylight! 🌞

1989 (& Reputation & TS1) Era(s), we are ready! 💙

Taylor Swift and Karlie Kloss ‘On Good Terms’ Despite Feud Rumors

Taylor Swift and former bestie Karlie Kloss are ‘on good terms,’ a source exclusively tells Life & Style after Karlie’s appearance at Taylor

Swifties were left baffled after Taylor Swift’s former bestie, Karlie Kloss, was spotted in the stands during the “Bad Blood” artist’s last night of her Eras Tour stop in Los Angeles, despite rumors of a falling out between the two. But an insider exclusively tells Life & Style that the ladies are now “on good terms.”

“Taylor and Karlie never confirmed or denied they weren’t friends anymore so to see Karlie at her concert was a beautiful gift that everyone was happy to witness,” the source says just hours after the supermodel, 31, was seen at SoFi stadium on Wednesday, August 9. “The last time they were seen together was in 2018 so clearly something must have happened. And Taylor didn’t go to her wedding either, she was on tour in Australia at the time. Apparently it wasn’t a major falling out, they were just on a ‘friends break.’”

The source close to Taylor, 33, added, “We might never know the real reason, but whatever their differences were, that’s all water under the bridge now.”

Swifties were quick to take note of Karlie’s seats, which were in the upper bowl as opposed to the VIP tent where many other celebs have been spotted. However, the insider revealed that “Taylor was very happy to see Karlie at the show.”

“As far as I know, they chatted afterwards and made plans to see each other in the future,” they continued. “Bottom line, they’re on good terms again and the Swifties are loving it.”

The rumors are terrible and cruel But honey, most of them are true
