[_unicorncorgi_]

The narrators voice is throwing off the video

[khishasingh]

I hope they do a deep dive on all of the Easter eggs in Midnights 😭

Imagine if the next brand new album is really Karma. It's still gonna do an amazing sales and stream like Midnights coz we've been waiting for that since 1989 era. If Taylor will release that, I just know that we will all get crazy.

[jenniferbullett]

Superfans indeed. WOW!!! This was really fun. I want more fan videos to decode Tays MVs

[ReptilesGeniales]

I have found the elevator buttons to being a representation of all over her albums ever, 13 of them. And each button has the colors for that particular album she has made, the clips at each floor also represents that album.

[ZZpppp]

She’s also always paid attention to her fans over the years. We’ve been huge fans since her first album. Have written comments on video posts and several times she’s read and liked my comments. She’s always cared and been involved with her fans❣️

[mickaylavannatter]

the voice over 🤮 yall have so much money what

[xyincognito]

Just a thought: Someone said it on the internet before: remember when Taylor told us three times "IT'S A CLOCK", when releasing the midnights vinyl... like, dude, it's obvious .... but someone pointed out that the true clock (specifically the TV release clock) is painted on the wall in The Man's music video when male taylor pees against the wall. D First Fearless Taylor version, then red TV, now Speak Now TV... if reputation TV is next followed by 1989 TV, then she used this as an epic easter egg. And I guess debut TV will never happen :D


And here is the thought: What if we get Karma - the lost album - after all of the re-recordings?

[kimbaby]

That's why Taylor said that she wrote "Mastermind"

[LisaMayor-zvrz]

on the bejeweled mv if you look further up on the elevator buttons it has all of her past albums in but this is the order it goes in after evermore:
10-fearless tv 11-red tv 12- midnights 13-speak now tv

[suspiciousstar]

Well, they don't call her Mastermind for nothing 😂

[Hey_Jamie]

She’s been on level 1000 since day 1. The Taylor Swift ARG is the best by far

[stephtriesthings]

The narrator's voice is giving me creepy video vibes

[soomiij]

i believe that some of the songs on midnight were supposed to be on karma because it sounds nothing like evermore and folklore and the lyrics are a bit more immature than these two albums and it sounds like something younger taylor would’ve wrote

[Hey_Jamie]

I thought the plane wings being sawn off was representative of her past self having her wings clipped, unable to fly or get away

[aadhithyanbabu]

The tea pouring has 12 snakes, and Taylor is the 13th....13 her lucky number

[archana.c]

did anyone notice she has "Este" written on the you belong with me tshirt? did future tay come to her and plant that for No Body No crime lol

[Lay.nic]

also in the anti hero music video she plays on her koi fish guitar that she used in the speak now tour which is hinting that speak now tv was next i’m pretty sure? correct me if i’m wrong
