Tatty - Blog Posts
our field of dreams
Taylor gave us a 1970’s themed game show called Midnights (the title tracks on the first three 1975 albums all start with “go down / soft sound / midnight”) Mayhem (the name of Matty’s black dog) with Me (Taylor and the 1975 both have songs titled “Me”). Just pointing it out because no one gives her credit for that specific batch of easter eggs ⏰🥚

I’ve been looking sad in all the nicest places
(I’m gonna get you back)
Midnight album cover is her sparking a lighter - getting ready to burn it down…she gave us a heads up for what’s to come.
The breakup was obvious from the album and timing, Joe the Beard did his work and can be let go now as she moves into the next phase.
I see this PR strategy with Matty as the next step in this era. It almost feels to me like when Miley went wild to shatter her association with Hannah Montana.
Is Taylor stepping out with Matty akin to this…a clear message to the fans that she’s not concerned about their opinions as she once was, by “dating” someone as controversial as Matty?? Is Taylor stunting with Matty the equivalent of Miley’s beige clad ass disaster of a twerk??
After all - Midnight is the technical end of the day, or - the end of the era. Al the clock imagery…time’s up on the former TS brand???
I say, this is just the beginning.
I’m somewhat surprised Matty’s involved, but leads me to believe they are scheming something BIG.
They’ve been baiting us. There are parallels in their work for years (Paris and Paris, Happiness and Happiness). Recently, Being Funny in a Foreign Language and Midnight came out SAME month. Both have seventies motifs - I noticed the similarities instantly. And then of course, the 02 performance in London.
What’s going on here?? Secret best friends with vigilante plans?? Or, are they truly in love? I’ve wondered for years if they’ve secretly been together, that the bearding was for them and not actually Karlie.
What are the two genius pop stars up to?
Let’s wait and watch and look for the clues. My Tatty instincts say things are about to get fun.
And my guess - this stunt lasts a few months at best. Taylor is knowingly tarnishing her reputation by letting herself be seen with Matty. Let the public slander her for that, and when there’s a messy breakup around the end of summer…
Maybe she’s setting the stage for an undoing of the brand she’s built in the last 20 years 🤔🤔
Who really knows, probably not even our girl. 🤡
I do hope Tay’s team is looking after Joe rn
Never a dull moment and I’m here for it 🤗❤️
