that's great!!! Always fab to see Taylor's songwriting get recognised :heart:

 

Also most importantly, in mid-December there's gonna be a week of exclusive interviews/performances etc from the winners. Are we FINALLY gonna get some folklore live performances please I s2g

Received my Meet Me Behind the Mall vinyl yesterday *.*

 

Impressive vinyl sales, she's sold almost 8000 vinyl in the UK so far this week! 9.5k overall when you include CDs, downloads and streaming.

Well.... I thought The Weeknd was gonna be her biggest competition for it and he’s not nominated for anything!

 

I think she’s the clear favourite for it I hope she pulls it off. Surprising nominations this year though makes me think the actual ceremony could go really unpredictable but she deserves this.

yep I think the general consensus was The Weeknd winning with Taylor & Fiona being the only possible spoilers. and with Abel & Fiona snubbed, I really think it can happen now!! I feel Dua is honestly the only threat, NOBODY else in that category makes any sense to win it ahaha

 

but then the noms are so crazy overall :lol:

Help omg the us chart run is quite SOMETHING

 

After falling 19 places to 29 this week, it’s now projected to climb 22 places to #7 in next weeks chart 😂😂 lemme find its full US chart run cos these last few weeks have been something 😂

okay can we talk about hoax

 

mostly because i'm excited to see what she says about it in the film but I always thought it was a happy song in a sense??

 

The lyrics "you faithless love is the only hoax I believe in" to me means she doesn't think his love could be true so she is very quick to think it is a hoax or he is playing her and the lyrics "my best laid plan" and "your slight of hand" really makes me think she was planning to never fall in love so easily again but Joe was able to break through?

 

Would love to hear your thoughts because I was confused when everyone said its after the breakup

Yes, we can. :wub: my folklore favorite.

 

I found these notes from Aaron Dessner:

 

"This is a big departure. I think she said to me, "Don't try to give it any other space other than what feels natural to you." If you leave me in a room with a piano, I might play something like this. I take a lot of comfort in this. I think I imagined her playing this and singing it. After writing all these songs, this one felt the most emotional and, in a way, the rawest. It is one of my favorites. There's sadness, but it’s a kind of hopeful sadness. It's a recognition that you take on the burden of your partners, your loved ones, and their ups and downs. That's both "peace" and "hoax" to me. That's part of how I feel about those songs because I think that's life. There's a reality, the gravity or an understanding of the human condition."
