[Music]
we're at a Taylor Swift now event in
Chicago there's a bunch of fun games and
lots of fun things to do and I'm super
excited to be here we went to the AT&T
of that first and then from there we got
to sign up for like future events with
AT&T now and now we're at the future of
it it's a party for Taylor Swift and I
don't know what to say it's just amazing
she's finding us with this huge big
party 480 they've got a dance the way
they've got classic multiple video game
they've got claw machines that's my
stuff
I was so jealous but now I got the
chance to do it tonight he's truly
beautiful a lot of heights here like
we're all kind of anxious to see what's
about to happen
[Music]
we just we ran in there like walk walk
in a minute like no go go go
surprise concert mind-blowing
no idea we were just are getting
non-alcoholic drink and we're like why
the gates open I feel like the only time
people run and scream that much is the
Taylor Swift is here so at that point I
was like she's here
[Applause]
I was thinking I could play some songs
[Applause]
we are
I'm just checking to make sure that this
is in the right key because I've had
this issue lately where I started sewing
that I have to start it over with which
is that sort of a recurring issue I used
to when I was like 14 it's come back
anyway this is called gorgeous
[Applause]
you should click it as a compliment that
I got drunk another way
[Music]
you should think about the consequence
of your magnetic
[Music]
you should take it as a compliment down
talking to everyone here but you
[Music]
you should think about the consequence
of you it sucks in my hand and a dot and
bro
[Music]
but if you sing all that honesty works
because you're so gorgeous but actually
[Applause]
I feel like I'm I see
[Applause]
[Music]
this way
[Music]
[Applause]
make me so happy it turns back to side
nothing I hate more than what I can't
have you are so gorgeous it makes me so
mad make me so happy it's
nothing more than what I can have guess
I'll just humble I'm home to my god
[Music]
[Applause]
I can't say anything to you
[Applause]
[Music]
make me so happy it comes back
you are so gorgeous it makes me so mad
make me so happy it turns back to side
nothing a bit more than what you are so
gorgeous it makes me so mad
it's so much fun it's not fun to dance
to like even on the guitar or this is my
favorite song on her new album and I
just anytime I hear that just makes me
so happy I can get down to it I can just
sit and smile to it it's just an overall
great song I think I can listen their
hair songs and I can just feel instantly
[Applause]
you guys are incredible this is just
this is so gone I'm gonna say really
quickly that AT&T DirecTV now they put
on this party for us like everything
that they've built they built this sage
they they basically constructed all of
this so that you would have a good time
and you know just the entire party that
you were at before the doors opened up
and you realized it was also a concert
they put so much work into that they put
so much effort into it there were so
many like cues taken from music videos
and lyrical puns and fun things that
they created so let's give a round of
applause to down
very nice of them to do that um yes so
this uh this next song is a song that I
wrote about um I just I was I was kind
of thinking a lot about the concept of a
reputation because I I knew very early
on I wanted to name the album reputation
it was one of the first things so I was
able to really kind of construct the
album based on that concept usually
every time before I think I've kind of
come up with the the title of the album
pretty late in the process so I feel
like what are all these songs what are
they all kind of have in common
what's the word I use a lot what and so
this one was different because I kind of
built it out from the concept of a
reputation so there are a lot of like
like kind of like I'm angry at my
reputation moments they are like I don't
care
[Music]
[Applause]
and then there are these moments where
it's very like oh my god what is my
reputation actually makes the person
that I like not want to get to know me
like oh no that's a reality that could
happen like and so when I was thinking
about that that part of it we're like
your reputation you're like how real is
it
well it's only real if it stops you from
getting to know someone we feel like you
could connect with them in a really real
way this is a song I wrote about that
and actually just found out that this
song is top five at pop radio and number
one
[Applause]
[Music]
me
[Music]
[Applause]
[Music]
Oh
[Music]
[Applause]
Kimi
[Music]
[Applause]
[Music]
you must language
give me
[Music]
is its ultimate my because I know
[Music]
[Applause]
[Music]
is it
[Music]
yeah because I know is that for every
teaching elbow it's fantastic is just
amazingly written and I think for me
it's super relatable
put what you feel when you have a crush
on somebody and you wanna holla into
work
[Music]
[Applause]
you know it's interesting looking back
on writing a lot of songs about my life
because when I first play it live I'm
like obviously thinking about that
experience that I had that it inspired
the song that like that like basic
initial kind of experience that I had
that I was writing about and then it
kind of over time it morphs because like
first of all time helps you get over
things right it's like you hope
hopefully that's the dream but basically
I think that as time passes what's so
weird is that like my memory that I
relive when I think of a certain song or
when I play a certain song changes from
being about a person that was in my life
or an experience I had originally and it
kind of morphs into like times I've
played the song and heard you singing it
back like super that thankfully you guys
seem to like which is so nice and it's a
song that originally it was a song that
like every time I played it be like oh
and now I play it and I think of like
the times I've played it in a stadium or
an arena or my living room with you guys
screaming the words back to me and so it
changed it and I wanted to thank you for
changing it because it's kind of nice to
sing a song that you're proud of but not
feel pain while you sing it
[Applause]
very nice so um with that in mind this
is called I'll sue
[Applause]
[Music]
my scarf sister's house
[Music]
sweet
[Music]
photo album on the counter you see
returning red
[Music]
mother's telling stories - you see
ballsy tell me about your past your
future
I know it's long gone
[Music]
[Applause]
[Music]
you
[Music]
[Applause]
[Music]
[Applause]
it's kind of crazy that somebody's so
biggest to least with was feeling the
same emotions that I was feeling and
that I could connect to her like that
I still haven't processed this
completely it's not gonna hit me till
afterwards nothing will ever top this
basically this album the way that I see
it is it I feel like it it works sort of
in a linear timeline I feel like it
starts in a certain place it's like the
album is sort of like a catharsis where
like after I wrote it I was like okay
Wow okay so that's done like but I had
to say all of it because it really I was
feeling a lot of feelings and so the
album starts out and it's all very like
bombastic and like and it's really like
I think that there was a bit of a
bait-and-switch that happened with this
album when we put out look what you made
me do and were like guys the sounds
gonna be one thing and when the album
came out it's legitimately an album
about finding love throughout all the
noise and so it starts with the noise
and how that all makes you feel and how
it makes you feel when like when people
are saying things about you that you
feel like aren't true and and living
your life sort of in defiance of that in
defiance of your reputation and then
it's sort of in the middle of the album
you kind of realize okay so so what how
much do I really value that like if if
you can find something real in spite of
a bad reputation then isn't that what
matters the most to you and it doesn't
it matter the most to you that you know
who your real friends are now doesn't
matter so I found myself I found myself
like two New Year's Eves ago I found
myself about myself in in the midst of a
very like incredible 3 a.m. moment where
you feel like you're invincible and you
end up like jumping in a pool in the
winter and you feel super untouchable in
that moment
the next morning you feel very fragile
and you're like you're like this is love
this is what love really is like we all
want to find someone to kiss at midnight
that's cool or whatever but who's gonna
want to hang out with you the next day
when you're like advil or nothing so
this is a song about finding real love
and finding someone to hang out with on
New Year's Day
[Music]
