Here is where we will keep all our Hazed Reactions to Taylor Swift's masterful art!
Curated by: Hazed Reactions (68 videos)
Taylor Swift has written plenty of heartbreaking songs... but what happens when you find out she wrote one of her most devastating songs while she was actually happy? In Part 10 of our Journey to the Eras Tour, Rick and Robert react to "Death By A Thousand Cuts" for the very first time, and this one completely catches them off guard. Before we even hit play, we talk about why this song is so respected among Swifties, the story behind its inspiration from Someone Great, and why so many artists consider it one of Taylor's greatest songwriting accomplishments. Once the music starts, though, everything changes. Instead of focusing only on the lyrics, we spend a huge portion of this episode talking about the production. Jack Antonoff's beat, the unexpected instrumentation, and the way every sound serves the story absolutely blows us away. Then we dive into the bars. As lifelong hip-hop fans, we couldn't stop comparing Taylor's writing to some of the greatest lyricists in rap. The storytelling. The punchlines. The double meanings. The callbacks. The invisible threads she weaves throughout her music that reward listeners every single time they come back to a song. And then... ...the bridge happens. The boys finally understand why Swifties constantly debate whether this is the greatest bridge Taylor has ever written. Let us know: • Is "Death By A Thousand Cuts" Taylor's best bridge? • Which lyric hits you the hardest? • Did this reaction surprise you? 🎵 Next up: Robert continues his Fleetwood Mac journey with "Edge of Seventeen!" 👀 There may even be an extra surprise episode dropping for Patreon this week if we can pull it together...
