Everything make sense

whoa man

wow

your pfp just makes this whole comment better

HER MIND

Sadly relatable....

Geerrrrlll 😆💯!! Not sad, but hopeful ❤

me, guilty

been there, too. So sad, but trueeeeeee

😥😥😥

It goes so hard, honestly one of the best songs she’s ever written

It's also my very fav part for the same reason.

I need to hear this tysm

what a cute comment..

💖💖💖

😢❤💖

❤

Shasha Salve GENIUS. Aww man, that just makes it even sadder. Thanks, I hadn’t noticed

Lolllll I thought of it like how a bottle of wine is seriously like five glasses and everyone is always going “did we get through that bottle already?!”.... it’s like a common thing w alcohol and wine especially lol.... so I thought of it like she was just saying the same thing twice. Like it slipped away and went fast and was gone before they knew it or expected it... like a bottle of wine. But I like yours better lol.

Her mind- I swear And bless your soul for sharing

makessss so much senseeee

How much SHE enjoyed it. James didn't enjoy it as much since in his song he was thinking about Betty the whole time he was laying next to this girl.

😂love this

this is an underrated comment

took me a second to understand 😂😂😂

I know right? Isn’t it so cool ?😂😆

August slipped away into a moment in time fr

Why tears in my eyes.... During listing this song

August really just slipped away now

Nah bro😂

It's already December 😊

i agree with you actually

Underrated

Absolutely

what 3 songs was it? betty, August and???

@@arbabqamar9941 Cardigan

and also "i never needed anything more" i feel horrible for the poor august girl :(

But also James loved Betty ,Betty loved James ,august girl ruind everything

@@Saadeddien that's true. august girl isn't innocent here, but she also got her heart broken in this mess, maybe even more than betty, considering she was completely forgotten and left behind. james isn't innocent either, since he cheated on betty for a whole month and knew exactly what he was doing.

@@user-yl5ow9lw1i I think August always had feelings for James even since then. And when she thought she finally had the chance (“Back when I was living for the hope of it all”) she didn’t want to let it go. She fought for her love even though she probably knew that James was dating Betty. Despite that, she was hoping that James would be hers finally because she’s been aching and loving him for a long time already. So maybe it’s an unrequited love for her in the beginning but when James finally came to her (cheating), she couldn’t really do anything except let herself fall, and take the chance.

@@lyfsolev6714 yeah, that makes sense.

I'm sorry but I am crying reading this. I understand how you feel. Sometimes we just gotta move forward. There's so much happiness in the world to experience, to be open for, and they're better than what we pine for. Trust me, staying in the past and hoping holds us back

This hits me so Hard when i was reading it. Wish you both all the best and that you can meet again 😢❤️‍🩹,know exactly how you feel

I can feel the pain of longing and wanting but distance made it impossible to happen. I hope your love will be rekindled in the future and there will be no more goodbyes. I wish one day, you will come back in here and edit your comment saying: hey, we're back together and getting married soon, ❤❤❤. Distance made it impossible but time will make it possible. ❤❤❤

i read this like im singing some taylor songs

ikr. she felt like he is her world but she really was just a "phase" and a mere "summer thing". she's not even the second choice, it just so happened that she was there.

The fact that none of the teenage love triangle songs ever mention her name. I'm glad that everyone, including Taylor gave her a name. Also, a part me thinks that it would be better to left her unnamed just to make it sadder and that she was nothing to James.

That's what makes me return to this song each time

I agree I agree

@@BorinSHort I mean Taylor did say she was only calling her "Augustine or Augusta" in her head. she didn't say it was her actual name 😊😊

happy august month!!!!

💕

ME. In Mexico arrived 30 min ago and i had to reproduce it lol 😭

Let's not exaggerate. Nothing was named after her bubble gum pop

Basically every Taylor's song lol.

The best comment i’ve read! Well done

Sameee!! She's simply brilliant

Yes

I’m a swiftie and I can relate to you a lot!

​@@LemonIceTeaBobagirl i was crying for an hour because of this song! 😂

It really is a vibe, isn't it? IG is the first place I heard it too.

@@johnmininger7472it is such a vibe 🙂

Have you listened to anything other than this? Lol

Pls search for August Mystery Girl

And also "cancel plans just in case you'd call" and "say you meet me behind the mall" literally from the bridge to outro is the best part of the song

I felt that too...

I thought it was "one thing was enough", I wasn't reading the lyrics lol

"To live for the hope of it all" gives me major feels.

Ikr😭😭😭😭been in that situation.

😅😅😅 so true

No one's worth simping for

YASSSSSSSSS

So many cancelled plans.. Hahahahahaha

couldn't have said it better 😭😭

totally agree

exactly what im doing rn

@@rosewild3620 same 🤭

Wait, are you planning to end your life? Please don’t! Life is worth it

My birthday is on 31st August lol

Yeessssss

😁😁😁

Bro yes

Periodt

Accuracy

But still there is a serious dearth of bridges on this album 😭

you're articulate... ! (heart emoji)

Angad Singh I noticed that too! While this is my favorite of her most recent albums, one of the things I loved most about her earlier albums were how amazing the bridges were

@@sophias9686 definitely! Such as You Belong With Me, Enchanted, Back to December, Out of the Woods, Red and many to mention. Her bridges are just so amazing!

She's the QUEEN of bridges 👑

yeah. i even want to cry. the album touched my heart.

Same.

SAME. in the last 10 seconds i just thought deeply about my adolescence

ME TOO! I’ve cried at two of her new songs (the one and tears ricochet). Exile gave me crazy chills. This is her best album to date. No contest.

It's that magical jack antonoff touch

Yep!!!

Periodtt

I can taste the air through the lyrics

@@clearbluewater9784 ikr

@@clearbluewater9784 surprisingly me too

Ikr! Every month does 😔 but it’s still a great song to listen to even when it’s not august anymore💕

Still august here!

@@rnt__ same but it’s going by quickly

Well she knows what she's getting into

she knew Betty very well and knowingly slept with her boyfriend. she was an accomplice to betrayal, which demonstrates very well the type of person she is. Betty is the only one who deserves justice here

😂😂 yess everyone trying to unterstand the allbum

yes and i love it

I can’t help my love for rhetorical and lyrical analysis😔

when she said "spelling is fun!" she meant it😭😂

@@kalmiakid9592 she didn't write that part and it means SPELLING = 8 IS= 2 FUN = 3 8.23 the day lover album got released

Wait hold up let me process this...

Willow is about wanting a certain person or the person you love to love you back. It's like making a love potion so that person will love you the same way that you do. August is about being the third wheel of a love triangle, desperate of wanting to be love by that person but aware that it wouldn't happen.

I was reading ur comment write when that part started wow

I was your 555 like and for some reason I feel very happy and proud about it 😂😂😂

Bravo,

I’m actually crying right now listening to it

omg 🥺🥺

also unrelated but you are GORGEOUS

Allison Frank I thought the same thing!!! 😁

Siona omg 🥺🥺🥺❤️❤️❤️

Yeah that line aches my heart 💔

Me tooo😍😍😍

Ya what a surprise..I luv all of them n prolly the happy day fr me

oh yeah!!! i was waiting until someone noticed it! i woke up in the morning and i was like "Holiday... or Folklore... Maybe Folklore first... or not, Holiday is shorter than the entire album"

and...sushant's last movie 'dil bechara'!😍😭💓

MixerSwiftie!!!!! Yaasssss. Holiday and folklore both have so different vibes.

If u like this song u might wanna check out the rest of folklore and evermore album.🥰I'm not trying to make u a fan or anything 😈

so aesthetic

This.

:)))

Oh I'd cry my eyes out if she did a short film for this😭

Same

Same

Need a film for this! I have needs! They are simple. This is one of them...

It's definitely intentional. And the rest, I couldn't agree more.

And also how she's a nobody but just a disruption between james and Betty's love story......an object or pawn at the most....

wait you’re so right

This is .... really sad

Omg yes! I love how she performed August at the Grammys 🥺❤️

Zamn couldn't be me

guess this is for me🥴

i love this

Bro is waiting for this moment.

I've been called out.

This comment is SOOO underrated 😹👍

Delicate: You can meet me in the back😂

LOL

Yay hehehe

omg

holy sh*t i- 🤯

🤯😵

What does that mean?

@Tanzeem Shabnam basically something like "let's meet up in secret, behind their backs so that no one can see us" if I understood it correctly. She made a bit of a pun by saying "the mall"

@@auroreis2308 Yep. 👍🏻

And her vocal delivery is just the cherry on top. The way she sings really makes you focus on the story she's telling. A rare talent indeed 🦋

@@nd_1989 exactly! It's like she's narrating but in melodies..her Talent is just over this world

Talent isn’t rare, people that know how to express and use their talent are

Of course♥♥♥

@@isaacmacarthur619 you need to calm down

so sad :( I think the same

Thats me 😢

Don’t call me out like that 😭

mood

You slapped on my face lmaooo

FINALLY SOMEONE SAYS IT!!!!

I CAN'T EVEN UGH-

yooooooooooo

so sweet I'll cry

her name is Augustine, Taylor confirmed in the long pond sessions 😁

Don't forget enchanted and the moment i knew,,

delete delicate

delete cruel summer and delicate though

It just feels like Betty is the next part of Styles u know with the whole.... I heard rumours abt other girl. He said , what u heard is true but I can't stop thinking about you. And Heard the rumours from Inez and slept next to her but I dreamt of you all summer long...

It s more like August, getaway car, I know places. It s all about getting away and adventurous romance

😭😭😭😭😭💗

❤️❤️❤️❤️

that is very random,, but ty uwu

Same to you as well

I'm all by myself while watching my best friend with my crush and they are also celebrating their 5th monthsary together. I'm happy with a bit of sad but oh well as queen Taylor said "wanting was enough"

Ikr!!!!

ssooo truuee

So true

True, I feel bad for all parties of the love triangle, but I feel more bad for Betty, when I know someone who cheats on their partner I'm extremely saddened and all I could think of is did you really love him/her?

occidere parabellum I feel worse for the other girl her name is not even mentioned cause what she felt or her arc didn’t matter for James she was nothing more then a regret and for Betty nothing more then the other woman while she had actual feelings for James and don’t see how you can feel bad for James he deserves nothing

Like cancel the lover era and the lover fest?

Same girl same

I have done that for my ex.But he left me a few months ago.

I did it sometimes. I ask who never did? But I’ve learned an important lesson about it. Never do it again. Love yourself first.

@@marciobio1000 truly agree 💯

It’s now September and I’m depressed

Exactly my point of view. James didn't deserve each one

Totally agree

i will only feel bad for betty. they both knew what was going to happen going into this... even though august is my favorite song off the album, i wont feel bad for her. ever.

I'm actually not sure she knew, maybe the "live for the hope of it all" was her thinking he would choose her, and the "it was never mine" is her reflections on it afterwards

mollye O ya I think that too,she seems to be nice

Also, on April 27th she said 'not a lot going on at the moment' and April 27 is 4/27. She released the album on 7/24, the reverse of 4/27.

@@amyness3452 oh damn

Me too I am shook sometimes

I have no idea what this math means, someone go into more depth on it with me

This is insane

This was THE song for me too to ”get” Taylor Swift. Amazing song!

Nostalgia

It’s like you’re driving with an open roof with that one person with the wind blowing in your hair. The suns shining bright and it’s just positive vibes AND nostalgia

RIGHT

I can. This song is autumn and pink lemonade or wine. Not overbearingly hot but that subtle sunshine towards the afternoon when the skies are painted in a brilliant burst of color.accompanied by a light breeze

EXACTLY. I was tryna explain the feeling but I couldn't find the right words. It's just too beautiful and calming and sad at the same time.

This song hurts

@@CatCatCaat yes, I am suffering with this music

I somehow read "meet me in the hallway" I don't even know why

Indeed. This song describes my 2004 summer impeccably

Also the entire fandom remembering her every year while screaming her story. If that isn't memorializing at it's finest, I don't know what is.

Yeah my august really got a better one now

Salt air, and the rust on your door I never needed anything more Whispers of "Are you sure?" "Never have I ever before" But I can see us lost in the memory August slipped away into a moment in time 'Cause it was never mine And I can see us twisted in bedsheets August sipped away like a bottle of wine 'Cause you were never mine Your back beneath the sun Wishin' I could write my name on it Will you call when you're back at school? I remember thinkin' I had you But I can see us lost in the memory August slipped away into a moment in time 'Cause it was never mine And I can see us twisted in bedsheets August sipped away like a bottle of wine 'Cause you were never mine Back when we were still changin' for the better Wanting was enough For me, it was enough To live for the hope of it all Cancel plans just in case you'd call And say, "Meet me behind the mall" So much for summer love and saying "us" 'Cause you weren't mine to lose You weren't mine to lose, no But I can see us lost in the memory August slipped away into a moment in time 'Cause it was never mine And I can see us twisted in bedsheets August sipped away like a bottle of wine 'Cause you were never mine 'Cause you were never mine, never mine But do you remember? Remember when I pulled up and said, "Get in the car" And then canceled my plans just in case you'd call? Back when I was livin' for the hope of it all, for the hope of it all "Meet me behind the mall" Remember when I pulled up and said, "Get in the car" And then canceled my plans just in case you'd call? Back when I was livin' for the hope of it all (for the hope of it all) For the hope of it all For the hope of it all (For the hope of it all) (For the hope of it all)

“you might have him, but i always get the last word…”

💖🥰😍

it's like reading an old book full of stories passed onto generations, a literal definition of the word folklore indeed.

except these songs are actually entertaining

@@JackAttackA1 Books/stories can be entertaining as well

@@Sara-kq8qb yes but often they are not, especially old books (i enjoy them anyway but i can see why alot of people don’t).

I reminded reading Call me by your name while listening to this song LOL

Same ❤

trolliar I agree. People are saying it sounds like “old Taylor” but I feel like this album has a more mature sound to it. And the production Sounds different than anything Taylor has done before as well

But old taylor is today's taylor. Only more mature. She can combine both. The difference are the lirycs. I love all taylors. I grewcup with her. Thank you TAYLOR for everything.

Hope it has something of red lyrics and 1989 sounds, but even better... And yeah, a mature Taylor

Its her choice. And I love all Tylor. Old, new etc 💁❤️

This is my favorite Taylor ❤️

I thought back the lyric to Cornelia Street that says "I don't want to lose you"

Reminds me of Les Miserables. 'He was never mine to lose'

@selma ayache but the song could also be interpreted as unrequited love. but yeah its about the 'other' girl

same

Guys i made a slowed version of cardigan,if u could watch it it would mean so much to me.🥺👉👈

*breathes* SoThisIsMeSwallowingMyPrideStandingInFrontOfYouSayionImSorryForThatNight

Lmao you guys! (In Taylor's voice)

if this isn't me-

Breathes OhIrememberyoudrivingtomyhouseinthemiddleofthenightI'mtheonethatmakesyoulaughwhenyouknowyou'reabouttocry

you deserved a like

it might taken as a funny thing but deep inside the fact it was named *"august"* is because it was like naming the love of James and the third party girl that happened only in the month of August.. her name wasn't even revealed like James and Betty because we always see the stories of two lovers but we're not trying to know the story of the third person

Pls search for AUGUST MYSTERY GIRL

ikr

Haha😂

Pls search for AUGUST by taylor swift but it's RAINING

i dont know if this comes as being august, but my best friend and I had a crush on same guy(me and him were close) but i never told her and even helped her get together, they broke up after graduation and the worst part was while it was like in terms of her , for me it was love after 5 yrs i am still not over him...sometimes i wonder what would have happened you know if i took that chance? aiiiii , this song always reminds me about that heartache i felt when my friend confessed to me and wanted my help

@@sorrow3573 I think you should be awe of the fact that you A) Cared deeply about your friend, enough so you put her above yourself B) You are able to admire/like someone without needing to possess them. You never know what the future will hold. My unsolicited advice (as a 24 year old still trying to figure this love thing out) to you is: Take that leap of faith and ask him out. I know its tricky because of your friend, but she's not a true friend if you cannot openly share and let her know how you feel. Even if he says no, and he might, you put yourself out there and showed courage. Don't be the kind of person that looks back in regret for all the things you didn't do or didn't say. Take the chance:) Be brave.

@@jenniferg.9017 THANKS

Her side of the story is so sad, how she wishes so bad for something that won’t, while being destined to fade into a memory of a slip up. She doesn’t even got a name! That’s how doomed to oblivion she was from the begging.
