Ed Sheeran had some of the most reasonably priced tickets… No platinum tickets. Verified fan presale before the American Express presale. And overall relatively cheap tickets for Spotify’s

artist. I really hope other big artists follow suit!! If he can do it, so can others.
Okay hear me out, the original “all too well” paints a picture of an almost perfect relationship that failed, so the listener is left feeling sad & heartbroken. But the details added in the 10 min version paint the picture of a relationship that wasn’t so perfect. For example:

You’re allowed to tweet would’ve, should’ve, could’ve lyrics in addition to speak now lyrics 👍🏼 I don’t make the rules, just enforce them
So that feeling of sudden loss leaves the listener feeling sad. But in the 10 min version, we get the explanation of why: not calling it love, 3 months in the grave, feelings of shame, secrets vs oaths, age gaps, a missed birthday, not thinking she was funny and a love affair!
Something is coming May 26. Stephen Colbert mentioned Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds (released on May 26). And TN retweeted a tweet from May 26 last year.
We are now able to tune in with how there was so much toxicity and power imbalance within the relationship. The new details elevate this anger. And in a way, this is very empowering. It’s no longer “he broke my heart, I was sad” but rather, “this was unacceptable and traumatic.”
In the original lyrics there were mentions of autumn leaves, getting lost upstate, photo albums on the counter, dancing in the kitchen & plaid shirt days. All this suddenly turns into “you tore it all up” & “I remember it.” It jumps from bliss to loss with no explanation of why.
All this added detail in the 10 min version fills in the gaps of what happened between the happy phase of the relationship and the eventual end. These details now leave the listener feeling more anger along with the hurt.
A reminder that
@taylorswift13
’s new record label let her release new music, album after album, during a pandemic (i.e., whenever the fuck she wanted to). And one of those albums won AOTY at the Grammys. I’m just so happy she removed herself from a toxic situation/greedy people.
Hot Take: celebrities need to stop sending PR packages to rich celebrities who will throw them away eventually & start sending them as surprises to fans who will actually appreciate it
In the original, the repetition of “it was real, I was there” makes it seem that the writer is trying to cling onto the lost relationship, as if they’re unable to put it behind them. Whereas in the 10 min version, the repetition of those same lyrics hold a much more firm meaning.

@Ticketmaster
This is ridiculous. People took time off from work for this. Y’all should’ve planned better if you knew about the historic demand. Spaced out sales or given out fewer codes. I think you need to make it right and waive ticket fees.

My 8 year old cousin: “A girl at school said Taylor Swift can’t sing good but I told her she can and told her all of Taylor Swift’s good songs”
Me: “What songs did you tell her?”
Her: “Shake it off, ME!, love story & You need to calm down”
