Red is great. On my 2nd listen now. All Too Well deserves more appreciation. It's perfection

At least Starlightsus is getting the praise it deserves

[Taylor Swift]

Let's see if 'Red' can make me listen to it for 2 years like Speak Now.

[Robert]

I'd say Red is more country than Speak Now tbh.

Starlight confuses me. It has the lyric "I met Bobby summer of 45" meaning it obviously isn't about Taylor (although it sounds a lot like the kind of relationship she would have). The problem is: "Ethel met Robert F. Kennedy during a ski trip to Mont Tremblant Resort in Quebec, Canada during the winter of 1945."

It could just be a story or the story of someone she met with her own twist much like 'Mary's Song'.

The album is a flawless exploration into different sounds and the story of a relationship. Falling in love, falling out of love, the pain and then the hope for something better.

However I think this will pretty much cement her departure from country music and I can't decide if that is a good move or bad move, I'll wait for the opening numbers.

So who do we think the album is about? Has the album booklet leaked so we can see the secret messages?

There's been 2 leaks.

Red - SAG
22 - ASHLEY, DIANNA, CLAIRE, SELENA

SAG? Well that doesn't help, and I pretty much figured that's who 22 was about, girls nights.

All I could think of was Screen Actors Guild Awards.

No it's not speak now is her most country album except her debut. RED is full of pure pop n acoustic/alt/indie pop.

Most of it is Jake. The lyric about him carrying the groceries, the lyrics about the scarf + the scarf in the WANEGBT video match up with paparazzi photos of them, and the "twin fire signs four blue eyes in SOG describe him. The ex she's moving on from in BA is him. He's the ex she's making fun of in 22.

ATW, IAD, WANEGBT, SOG are definitely all about him.

It could be someone's initials.
Has she ever been to the SAG's?

I was thinking that too....they must have dated for a lot longer than we knew to have such a massive impact on her life, I feel like she hasn't hurt this bad since Joe Jonas.

[Taylor Swift]

State of Grace should be a single.
