Well .... this song threw me for a loop. I have misunderstood Swift's lyrics before, and I may have done so again here. Feel free, as always, to let me know in the comments.

Hey folks, this song deals with some really heavy themes including suicide. I'll be releasing it tomorrow morning, so you're only getting a ten-hour head start tonight, but I'll be posting some exclusive puppy-related photos for you all next week to hopefully make up for it. Hope you enjoy.

I've been PLAYING guitar for more than 20 years, but I almost never PRACTICE. Guitar is just too joyful an experience for me to want to ruin it with practice. UNTIL NOW!
This old chunk of coal finally commits to a regular practice routine: 30 minutes a day for 30 days. Can it change my playing at all? Can such a small amount of time actually help me lose the bad habits I've formed over th...

One of the biggest legal channels on YT just discussed Taylor Swift's record company horror story, which I was very surprised to hear the details of.
PS: Comments/Q&A will be coming out this week too.

One great thing about being 6'5 and 200something pounds is that you're allowed to get emotional. This song makes me quite emotional, kinda sneaks up on me. I hope you enjoy this one, I know I enjoyed watching it.

Mirrorball is almost certainly a controversial song for many. Swift sings about her life and relationships here, and opens up about her personality and social life, this is very raw and honest song.

Hey folks. Here tis, my reaction to the opening and the first three interstitial scenes from the Disney+ movie about the making of Folklore. I play a WHOLE song at the top, and I even change some of the words for some reason. I talk a lot here, I usually cut out some of the stuff I go into more depth about here, but figured maybe you all might want to see more of some of the weird places my hea...

But, also I want to see if there are other artists you all might be interested in seeing me react to. All of these options are people I really know nothing about, so it'll be my first time checking the...

We've all heard about it, even if we haven't all seen the footage. This is the now infamous performance by Phoebe Bridgers from earlier this year when she had the AUDACITY to smash HER OWN guitar during the second set of her SNL performance. I take a look at the performance and then at the smashing itself. Keep in mind, there will be opinions here. And enjoy the video.

I had no idea that Taylor and Justin Vernon from BON IVER had ever worked together. Their voices sound amazing on this track, and somehow they're able to do it from hundreds of miles away. Also, I am FINALLY watching the Disney+ versions of these songs, so I discuss the opening scene as well.

I move forward into Evermore today with the 3rd song from the album "The Last Great American Dynasty" It's an upbeat tune with a little country/blue-grass shuffle beat behind it. Very subtle, very enjoyable. And I pretty much butcher the meaning of the song, so stay tuned for that. Also, there's a new camera on the intro/outro, but don't worry, I'll figure out the settings before next the video...

Here it is, CARDIGAN, the second song from Taylor Swift's Folklore album. So far this album has really impressed me. I react to this very sad, though mellifluous song, and give you my honest feedback. I play along and show you some of the musicality involved. Enjoy. Original Video: https://www.youtube.com/watc...

She's Singing to Betty .... or is she? Let's just say I was confused when I first started watching this performance. To many this might be an inspiring love song, to others maybe not so much. I share my thoughts on its interesting lyrical choices, and while we might agree, we might not. But that's always the case, so it's really not saying much. Anyway, thanks for reading this far down in the d...

I was worried about starting an album like this, because it means so much to so many people, as I've learned from your comments. I think the opening may catch you off guard on this one too.

I learn so many things I kinda wish I didn't know now from this video. It's interesting to see what the media focuses on regarding today's pop artists. This song appears to be directly about Taylor's life in the media, and I learn more than I bargain for. Enjoy! And THANK YOU FOR WATCHING! You guys have all been amazing.

You said "check out her TINY DESK CONCERT" ..... so I did. I watched the first song called "The Man", which is about a pretty touchy subject, SEX. Or gender. But "GENDER" in all caps is less grabby. Again, I discuss the politics of the song, the singer, how to play the song, and then give my own thoughts. My First Taylor Swift Video: 2021-07-21 02:49:33 +0000 UTC View Post
Ever wondered what it takes to be a Pop Star? This show has your answer. SING ON! Is a depraved, exploitative, immoral romp of a good time. It depicts exactly how the pop music industry sees its artists: as interchangeable, unpaid, vaguely necessary interns, who don't deserve even basic recognition, let alone any sort of promotion for their work or compensation for their time. Also,...
