Cried the whole way home, I should have known Well, maybe it's me and my blind optimism to blame Well, maybe it's you and your sickness to give love and take it away You add the name to your long list of traitors who don't understand And I look back in regret, how I ignored when they said Run as fast as you can Dear John, I see it all now that you're gone Don't you think I was too young to be met with a girl in a dress? Cried the whole way home Dear John, I see it all now that was wrong Don't you think that I seem too young to be played by your dark, twisted games When I loved you so, I couldn't help You are an expert at gory and keeping lies blurry And never am I blessed by the ache in your head And all the girls said you weren't right Cause I was, but I still knew what you were to them But I took your matches before fire could catch me So don't look now I'm shining like fireworks over your sandy sand Dear John, I see it all now that you're gone Don't you think I was too young to be met with a girl in a dress? Cried the whole way home Dear John, I see it all now that you're gone Don't you think I was too young to be met with a girl in a dress? Don't you think I was too young You should've known You should've known Don't you think I was too young You should've known You, with your words like knives and swords and weapons that you use against me You, have knocked me off my feet again, got me feeling like a nothing You, with your voice like nails on a chalkboard, calling me out when I'm wounded You, picking on a weaker man You can take me down with just one single blow But you don't know, but you don't know Someday I'll be living in a big old city And all you're ever gonna be is me Someday I'll be digging a field you can't hit me And all you're ever gonna be is mean Why you gotta be so mean? You, with your twitching sides and your wildfire lies and your humiliation You, have pointed out my flaws again I don't already see them I walk with my head down, trying to block you out Cause I never interview I just wanna feel okay I bet you got pushed around Somebody made you call But the cycle ends right now Cause you can't lead me down that road And you don't know, but you don't know Someday I'll be living in a big old city And all you're ever gonna be is me Someday I'll be digging a field you can't hit me And all you're ever gonna be is mean Why you gotta be so mean? And I can't see you here from now in a bar Talking over a football game With that same big loud opinion But nobody's listening Watched up and ranting about the same old bits of sin Drunken groans and all about how I can't sing But all you are is mean All you are is mean And a liar, and pathetic, and alone in life And mean, and mean, and mean, and mean But someday I'll be living in a big old city And all you're ever gonna be is me Someday I'll be digging a field you can't hit me And all you're ever gonna be is mean Why you gotta be so mean? Someday I'll be living in a big old city And all you're ever gonna be is mean Why you gotta be so mean? Someday I'll be digging a field you can't hit me And all you're ever gonna be is mean Why you gotta be so mean? Alright, so it's very obvious that these last two albums that we've been listening to, which are Taylor Swift's first and her third album, are country albums. So she released one more album after this, titled Red, and then transitioned to a pop artist. She was very famous in both genres and their realms, and did it so successfully that people very often compare her to Shania Twain, who I believe also made that transition from a country artist to a pop artist. As well as an example of today is Dolly Parton, who was recently inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, if you can believe that, since she started out as a bluegrass country artist. But yeah, I don't really agree that the first three albums were particularly country albums, since they do have kind of this sass element to them that doesn't really resonate with many country artists of today, since they're more traditional or country folk. Anyways, welcome to the pop craze that constantly played on loop, all over the radius of America, at least. And this is the album 1989, which she recently re-released. But we're gonna start off with Out of the Woods. Enjoy. Out of the Woods When discovered The rest of the world was black and white But we were in screaming color And I said the same thing Are we out of the woods yet? Are we out of the woods yet?

your ending Big reputation I wanna be your ending I wanna be your ending I wanna be your first I wanna be your ending I wanna be your ending Ending So it's very obvious that Reputation is a big change of pace It is the black revenge hate album that is just directed towards her old management company as well as the main focus is Kanye West The entire purpose is obviously that her reputation has changed Kanye West interrupted Taylor Swift receiving an award in 2009 at the VMAs and it very obviously embarrassed and upset her and it doesn't really matter in the long run but it matters a whole bunch to her so in 2016 he released a song called Famous and it was basically about him taking credit for Taylor Swift being famous and he released a line saying I made that which was a B I don't know if I'm allowed to curse on here Famous and he released a doctored phone call of her basically saying yes this is totally fine for you to release I agree with the message something along those lines Kanye West and Kim Kardashian West his wife at the time both released this and said you know there is no reason that she should be fighting this she's a liar and a snake and so everybody basically said Taylor Swift is over there was a hashtag trending on Twitter saying Taylor Swift is over party hashtag and she blacked out all her social medias and went basically radio silent for an entire year and then randomly released Reputation her slogan for the album is there will be no explanation only reputation and the whole point is she is taking her reputation back she released a couple songs on this album Look What You Made Me Do This Is Why We Can't Have Nice Things with just the meaning of you stole all the work that I have done and it was also kind of directed towards her management company which I can explain later about her re-recordings but Reputation is basically a hate letter to Kanye West and Kim Kardashian I'm going to play a song that I particularly like off this album called Don't Blame Me and I really hope you guys like it since Reputation is just so so different from all of her other albums and I think it's important to listen to as a part of her story enjoy Don't blame me Love made me crazy Doesn't show me doing it right Lord save me My drug is my baby I'll be using for the rest of my life I've been Breaking hearts a long time And Toying with the mold of

Does it make you feel sad That the love that you're looking for Is the love that you had? Now you're out in the world Searching for your soul Scared not to be hip Scared to get old The only thing that made for me Saddest lifetime you felt free Was when I'm sad and mad at That you were with me But now that we're done and it's over I bet it's hard to believe Thought it burned out I'm harder to forget Than I was to leave And I bet you think about me I bet you think about me Yeah, I bet you think about me I bet you think about me When you're out and you're cool And you need some comfort every week I bet you think about me When you're out with your organic shoes And your million dollar couch I bet you think about me When you say, oh my god, she's insane She wrote a song about me I bet you think about me I bet you think about me Which is absolutely insane. It was a three-hour show. And I forced my mom to listen to it all the time. And she, I think, got Stockholm Syndrome and started loving it. And I am so grateful for Taylor Swift's music because it genuinely is catchy and has been playing on the radio my whole life. But it brought my mom and I together in a way we couldn't have without her. And I truly hope that you guys liked at least one song that I picked and that you can hear Taylor Swift in a better light so that you don't just immediately judge her for being a girl who writes songs about her exes or, you know, is just a waste of space as an artist. Because I don't really think that's true. I think people just judge her really quickly because she's fun, pop, blah, blah, blah. And some people don't like that. I think she's an incredibly hard worker and has so many layers and literally hides Easter eggs in everything that she does like years in advance which takes really a lot of work that a lot of people don't do as an artist. I think that should be really looked upon. I don't know too many other artists literally female or male who have been able to have such a level of success that she has in her career or in the music industry for that matter. And she's been in it for like over 17 years so I really think that you guys should just give her some props. That's all I'm saying. You can hate her. Whatever you want to do with Taylor Swift after this. But I have successfully made you listen to like at least over 10 songs by Taylor Swift. Hopefully you sat through it with not a frown on your face. I know that I will always be grateful for listening to a song with messaging that I understand or something that just has a catchy tune that makes me feel less alone in the world. That's what music is for and I won't be shamed for liking Taylor Swift. So next week is dad music. It's a very big change of pace for you guys as listeners. So I don't have a question this week but I'd love for you to send in some fan mail or something or write in to our station that Anika Allen from Soundbreaks Radio made you listen to Taylor Swift for an entire hour and will be listening to her podcast only from now on. That would be amazing. Actually listen to my friends on Soundbreaks. They've got some pretty good podcasts, I promise. So tell your friends because my podcast is actually pretty cool and I truly am expanding your music taste and that was my goal. So next week is dad music because my dad was born in the 60s and his music taste was most definitely passed down to me. But anyways, have a great week. Bye.
