Jake Gyllenhaal is the typical elitist asshole, activist in public and in private gives you lessons even on how to use the fork because he enjoys filling with paternalistic indie intellectual because you are too young and naïve, but he also does not go out with someone his age to feed his ego.
Dylan nails the character, he is embarrassed in public because you are too young but enjoys teaching and showing you around as a trophy, also asking for redemption but the fault is on you. Sadie using an adult look to fit into his environment and please him while she looses herself trying to reach an imaginary standard because for him it will never be enough, because he has doomed the relationship from the very beginning in his mind.
It's not that he doesn't care or love cause he does, that's why his behavior is so different in public and in private, but he only likes certain things not the complete package, the problem is his because he doesn't accept the whole meaning of the relationship.
Girls if someone is ashamed of you or wants you to portrait a role for his imposible expectations run on the opposite direction. He doesn't deserve you.

Taylor Swift raised a generation of hopeless romantics. She really empowered so many young people to grow up soft and vulnerability and steadfast in the belief that authentic, magical, dizzying love exists for everyone. She inspired who knows how many people to live lives of more love, to let their hearts be broken more often, and to extend their care and affection freely and generously with others. THAT is the exceptional power of her artistry, especially in a time of mass emotional numbing and lack of empathy.

why people go and make things about tom and jake and harry themselves and like don't understand a metaphor and go and say it's all taylor.
like gal YOU made that up
YOU made that it was her thinking jake still watches her from the window or blah blah.
like understand writing and metaphor . like it was a freaking metaphor , because all songs are massage in a bottle wishes to be heard. and it was just her thinking maybe he also looks back at it fondly. like aaaaahahhhhh
you guys are real annoying imma tell ya

all too well: kuroo tetsuro
☞ a/n: NOT ANGST!! i HEAVILY HC that kuroo loves and listens to taylor swift secretly. this is him when all too well (10 min version) comes out and y’all are in a relationship. italicized quotes are lyrics/kuroo singing. lyrics and song are obviously not mine! credits and ownership goes to ms. taylor swift <3
Tumblr media
☞ cw: one paragraph of SMALL angst, language, all too well by taylor swift is heartbreaking, timeskip!kuroo (so like slight timeskip spoiler,) y/n watching kuroo sing his heart out
Tumblr media
5:48 pm
“tadaima!” you yell through your shared house with your boyfriend. your home was tiny but cozy. it was almost 6 so the room was almost dark when you arrived. kuroo was off from work today and you expected a response back but you didn’t hear anything. instead, you hear music through the walls of your house. you guessed that he just didn’t hear you. you take off your shoes and make your way to your shared room until you hear:
“…you almost ran the red 'cause you were looking over at me. wind in my hair, i was there, i remember it all too well…”
“taylor swift?” you thought to yourself. you and kuroo have been dating since high school, but through that whole period, kuroo has never mentioned an interest to taylor swift.
“and you were tossing me the car ke- FUCK THE PATRIARCHY”
a voice that was very much your boyfriend’s interrupted your thoughts. you silently and slightly opened the door peeking through the crack, hoping to not be seen. you saw your handsome boyfriend on the bed with the laptop open, in a blanket. slightly crying?? yes. your 6ft tall bf, high school volleyball captain, employee at Japan Volleyball Association is curled in a blanket crying to taylor swift.
“CAUSE THERE WE ARE AGAIN IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT”
you grab your phone from your pocket and start recording this phenomenon, crouched on the floor, through the crack of the door. this is gonna be interesting you whispered and chuckled to yourself as you hit record.
“WE’RE DANCING ROUND THE KITCHEN IN THE REFRIGERATOR LIGHT. DOWN THE STAIRS I WAS THERE I REMEMBER IT ALL TOO WELLL”
you giggled softly watch your boyfriend scream the lyrics in “pain.” this is the man you fell in love with back then. the same dorky, cocky, sweet, charming guy. your kuroo tetsuro. it’s moments like these that remind you how you fell for him. it’s moments like these that you think about when one of you are far away on a business trip.
“GOD DAMMIT TAYLOR- AND YOU CALL ME UP AGAIN JUST TO BREAK ME LIKE A PROMISE. SO CASUALLY CRUEL IN THE NAME OF BEING HONEST. I’M A CRUMPLED PIECE OF PAPER LYING HERE CAUSE I REMEMBER IT ALL TOO FUCKING WELL”
you’re full on muffling your mouth in your sleeve so he won’t hear your laughter over the music, even though it was blasting on the blue jbl speaker. kuroo then starts sobbing and cursing at taylor for “being a musical genius and stomping on his heart” you did feel a little bit bad for eavesdropping on him while he’s singing and sobbing his heart out, but you know it’ll be over soon, and he’ll take you in his arms again.
you started thinking what it’d really be like if kuroo broke up with you. there’ll be no one walking to your desk with dinner making sure you eat your meals and not overworking yourself. there’d be no one to cuddle while you talk about each other’s days until you fall asleep. no more dancing in the kitchen while eating snacks because you couldn’t sleep at 3 am. life would be terribly different and even you started to tear up. you stopped thinking about it before you become the mess kuroo is listening to taylor swift.
“and i was never good at telling jokes but the punchline goes ‘i’ll get older but your lovers stay my age.’- AGHHH FUCK IT HURTSSSSS”
as the outro plays and the atmosphere calms, so does kuroo. he then grabs his phone and you end your recording. immediately after, your screen lights up with the name “my love <3” and a picture of you and kuroo making wacky faces. you stand up and open the door as you answer the call.
“you okay lover boy?” you ask looking at him softly walking closer to where he was on the bed. he stares back at you with wide eyes wondering how long you’ve been there, how much you’ve seen, and wondering when you even got home.
“when uh when did you get home 😅?”
“mmm when was it? around the wind in your hair part”
“YOU SAW THAT WHOLE THING?!”
you giggle slightly at his antics. you make your way to the bed next to him and looked at him. his hair was slightly messed up from the blanket around him and his eyes were bloodshot red. with how wet his face was from his tears, you guessed he’s been listening to this song for quite a while. “yes, i did. i never knew you had a thing for taylor swift”
“i guess my secret is out the bag. i’ve kept this ‘hidden from even the volleyball team. ONLY KENMA KNOWS TOO. *sigh*…do-”
“yes tetsuro i still love you. don’t worry your handsome face about it. just because you listened to taylor swift’s breakup song doesn’t mean i no longer love you,” you tell him as you pepper kisses on his face while wiping his tears. “taylor swift makes you really vulnerable wow usually it’s me in your position.”
“IT’S NOT MY FAULT HE WAS A BITCH YOU NEED TO WATCH IT TO UNDERSTAND,” he exclaims offended. he looks back at you and he smiles softly at you. he loves you so much. he doesn’t even want to think about losing you. you’re his love, his honey, his “dopamine,” literally his high school sweetheart. he loves you more than life itself. “but later. you need to convince ‘my handsome face’ that you won’t break up with me bc taylor and jake broke up.”
“honey you’re smart but that logic doesn’t add up. i will spend every second with you to prove how much i love you my love. never forget that.”
he chuckled at that, “same with you y/n. you’re my everything,” he replies back pressing a kiss to your temple sniffling. one day, when you guys are old and grey, happily married, you’ll look back and reminisce. remembering moments like these (positively) all too well.

It took me three days of repetitive listening but I finally managed to sit down and write (some of) my thoughts on All Too Well, the 10 Minute Version.
So. I immediately felt that the 10 minute version was a completely different creature from the original song, doing a different thing: where the original song was tight, minimalistic, carefully-constructed to convey a certain message, framed by the image of the scarf, allowing criticism and negativity to come out only on the bridge (which is not the only reason that it’s one of the most amazing and cathartic moments in the song, but it's part of it) - the 10 minute version is just the opposite. The collage structure of the song remains, and perhaps even increases the feeling of going back-and-forth in time, a loss of chronology. The image of the scarf kind of gets loss (not completely, but it was previously very present in the song on the structural level).
This all might sound like I'm criticizing the 10 minute version but I’m so not, I think it's fantastic and amazing. But I also don’t think this version could’ve existed without the original song being so old, well-known and imprinted in us (the fans) in such a way that we’re ready for it to transform, we’re ready for more. Because there is no danger that the original words (or any words in the song) will be lost for us. In the long version she lets more words / thoughts / memories spill out, and she's like, “And another thing! And one more thing!” (which is a Taylor quality Rob Sheffield wrote about and I really enjoy - she can try and be exact in her writing but she also can always say MORE, and she will) 
I also really love how the 10-minute version works on a performance level - it reminded me of how some artists would perform certain beloved songs of theirs several times in a row... So Taylor taking such a beloved song and lengthening it is kind of the elegant way to do it. Seeing footage of All Too Welll performed live (with the audience scream-singing along) has always been one of my favorite things about this song, so now? It’s really amazing.
But yes, something basic in the message of the song is different now. The 10-minute version is much more negative and in that sense confused. In the original song she tried to organized her thoughts and memories and seemingly succeeded - I remember it, and you know what, so do you. You can’t get rid of it... But the 10-minute song, first of all, complicates what she remembers - it was good, but it was also really bad, and the significance of remembering what happened changes because it's not just remembering perfect and intimate moments, it's remembering abusive dynamics and re-arranging them in your head.
And the confidence and exactness with which she says “I remember, and you remember” is undermined when she returns to the insecurity of the question: “Just between us, did the love affair maim you, too? Just betwen us, do you remember it?” And the vulnerable “just between us” emphasizes something that was already in the original song: even after the breakup, they (maybe, she hopes) share something private that only exists between them, even if it’s only a memory.
I have... much more to say on specific parts of the song, but this might be enough for now! Damn, what a great song, what great art.
