Swiftlore: The Lyrics and Lore of Taylor Swift

This week we covered the two songs that appeared on Glee: Mean and Mine. We also have our first ever guests on the pod this week! It was so much fun having Andrew and Allison from Gleek of the Week on this week to talk about Glee, Taylor Swift, and everything else we ended up discussing on our many tangents. Head over to our YouTube channel to see the non-abridged version of our conversation with them! Check out Gleek of the Week: https://beacons.ai/gleekoftheweekpod/

We asked a few weeks ago what songs you wanted us to cover, and these two were highly requested! So this week we’re covering two very interconnected songs: Dear John and Would’ve Could’ve Should’ve. Enjoy! Link to the Speak Now Tour’s Dear John performance: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4FQCpSg65jU

It’s December and we’re getting in the spirit with two of Taylor’s songs about this time of year: ‘Tis the Damn Season and Christmas Tree Farm! And while these two songs may be about the same time of year, they definitely have… very different vibes. Enjoy!

This week we decided to throw it back with two Taylor songs that remind us of sleepovers when we were kids: I Knew You Were Trouble and Enchanted! These songs make us think of being teenagers, gossiping about our crushes, and pretending like we understood what it was like to be in love.

Well, this episode didn’t stay lost for long! We talked about this a few weeks ago, but we had an issue with Cat’s mic about halfway through the episode and had to switch to camera audio. Sorry for the slightly worse audio, it will be better again next week! In this episode, originally recorded for Halloween, we chose two murder-y songs to get in the spirit. The Halloween decorations are out of Cat’s apartment by now, rest assured.

Buckle in for this week’s episode as we do our first special episode: a deep dive into Taylor’s longest song and the accompanying short film. CW: This episode includes discussions of toxic relationships, age gaps, and power imbalances in relationships. If any of these topics might trigger you, we encourage you to skip this episode and come back next week.

We've been covering a lot of sad songs lately, so we wanted to be a little more lighthearted this week and cover the songs that we first remember loving from Taylor: Our Song for Cat and You Belong With Me for Abby!
