😻all her new songs are on Trending. Only Taylor Swift could pull this off. She breaks the internet with every new album 🙀

And Olivia Rodrigo, but to be fair Taylor has done it every time

Well duh, she got American taste

what is up with those emojis

especially this one

coz she is truly a music genius

I am going to tell you why "Maroon" is one of the most genius song she's ever written. She was able to say "red" six times without actually saying "red" for atleast once. Burgundy, Wine, Scarlet, Maroon, Blood, and Rust are all shades of Red. In fact, she said "red" eight times if we're going to add "Rose and Ruby" from the 2nd verse. This is how you play with words.

Rubies and roses are also synonymes

She's is a genius, I don't get it 😩🫀

Point taken. 👍. The song is great. I’m realizing Taylor Swift is brilliant.

"genius" huh. So i guess I've known at least 100+ artists who are geniuses just bcoz you won't find the title in the lyrics. Ohh and for an example I just remembered Shinee's sherlock but never once mentioned "sherlock" in the song but just a metaphor It's not like it's rare for it to be called genius

1. Taylor Swift - The Country Girl 2. Fearless - The Teenage Girl 3. Speak Now - The Princess 4. Red - A Heartbroken Woman 5. 1989 - The Party Woman 6. reputation - A Brave Woman 7. Lover - The Lover 8. folklore - A Wise Woman 9. evermore - The Storyteller 10. Midnights - The Brilliant Insomniac ................

Brilliant!

tenth already, name one pop artist that kind prolific, wow

@Arnie Barrios True!

1989 is more than a "Party girl album"

@steve uhm, those arent party songs. except for Shake It Off, they're pretty chill low energy songs. Are you seriously partying to Blank Space?

Does anyone else think that Taylor re-recording her old music is what inspired Midnights? She was re-living the memories of her old songs and that must’ve inspired the idea to make an album about sleepless nights throughout her life.

I feel that your comment is so accurate

I love this idea, but also, the last line in Lover is the recording of her saying 'the things that haunt you in the middle of the night'. I wonder if this concept existed since then, but lockdown came and she did folklore and evermore which lead to re recording red and fearless, before she got around to exploring this concept of midnights.

@dafaeriequeene “absolutely not”, no need to be condescending.

Absolutely not

This song is about her relationship in the Red album. Back then she said loving him was red, but now she realizes it was much darker than she thought it was and loving him was maroon instead. It shows that our perceptions of our life experiences change over time which is why Midnights is a brilliant album with a brilliant concept.

I see it differently. Maroon is a color variant of Scarlet Red. Sounds more like an affair, but music allows us to think the way we do :)

It's about Harry not Jake

@froggybaby Oh wow my pleasure!

@Mr & Mr Cantu's that's interesting!

I'm a high school teacher. British Lit. Thank you for this! It made sense to something I was puzzled by!

The harmonies in this song get into my soul

I want to inject this song into my mind, if that makes any sense T.T

FRRRR

The Atmos stems show a lot more going with the harmonies. It sounds like at least 5 layers of her own vocals.

Yeeesss :(

Maroon is a color of course but it’s also a verb meaning to be isolated and lonely (as in being marooned on an island). I love how this song captures both meanings .

soo smart

but the chorus says it was marron and not marooned , which is a verb. she might have just meant that her love matured.

MIND BLOWN. This is why Taylor is the best songwriter

It was maroon.. lonely? 🥺♥️

I didn't think about it this way. Thanks for this!

1) this is gorgeous. 'That's a real f*cking legacy' 2) I don't see anyone talking about how potentially dark this could be lyrically- the person interacting with Taylor seems to be careless, spilling wine on her and making her flush, leaving marks on her skin- it walks that fine line between intimacy and damage

@Sani yeah this song is definetly about the book. Ryle also bought flowers for lily right? carnations??

@L R Lavalais IT WAS DEFINITELY A VAMPIRE 😂😂😂

@Sani i was thinking about that too 😭

@jonestly How do you know it's not a vampire bite?

OR it could be a VAMPIRE.

I can’t believe she didn’t add this one to the Eras Tour setlist. It is the best one on the album. ❤

Hopefully we will get an acoustic surprise performance 🤞🥺

This song is my favorite from the album. My interpretation is that scarlet could be like the scarlet letter, possibly forbidden or shamed, yet there was a vibrancy until it turned dark: maroon. Maroon can mean to desert someone. I love how many times she uses the variety of red shades, the choice of flowers, and the rust that grew between telephones to show the tarnishing of the relationship. Perfect.

Love this! Never thought of it this way!

the way she hit "the rubies that I gave up" so perfectly. Also, the chorus is so addictive. This is hands down one of her greatest songs of all time along with Would've, Could've, should've ❤️💯

I'm not a Taylor Swift fan but this song is undeniably well written and the feeling of longing is so intense.

Maroon is my favorite song on the standard version of the album. It’s so dark, edgy, gloomy, and ominous, but very romantic, dreamy, and mesmerizing! It just encapsulates and captivates me in a way I never thought possible and I’m obsessed with how low the pitch goes from the first chorus to the second verse. It’s probably my favorite part of the song!

When I listen to Maroon, it's like maroon.

it reminds me of of 'Call it what you want' from Reputation

SAME the moment i heard it i was like THIS IS MY FAV

How u worded it was just literally everything I feel ❤ I love this song also!

yeah same😫🍷

One of the best song writers in this generation. So lyrically gifted with references, metaphors and language that automatically paint pictures in your head. Yet, so relatable for anyone who has lived a life with love and loss. Very. Very. Well done.

This song gives me the vibes of "Wildest Dreams", "Red", and "This Love" combined. The longing, the hint of an on and off relationship, the euphoria that comes with it, and the intensity of the relationship. It isn't like "Dress" from Reputation, it closely resembles her songs in the albums Red and 1989.

this song also reminded me so much on 1989!

Yeah, i definitely think this is more 1989-ish and red-ish than dress.

same thought. more of wildest dreams than dress

I love how she's leaning into her deeper register on this album. Several bridges and outros are an octave down instead of up.

Same. Though it was also like that in folklore and evermore as well

I don't know why, I repeated it 30 times since when the album released. I'm so obsessed on this song! 😭💚 I can't help myself. I love every detail.

I adore this song!

One of my favourite from this album!!

Me too! Maybe 50 is coming for realll

Me too!

Im so in love with this song. i feel like people dont talk about maroon enough. Maroon deserve more recognition😭

You're not alone, after listening to all of her songs in the album, this one was what stuck in my head. ♥️

Facts we need that music video

Maroon is like a newer version of Dress. That chorus hits so well and definitely has that midnight feel. Taylor creates masterpieces!!!

I just listened to dress and was like I should listen to maroon

Maroon gives I don’t wanna live forever and Dress vibes, musically. But lyrically, it makes me feel the same feeling I got with Cornelia Street, extreme nostalgia. For me both Cornelia Street and Maroon are about the same person. They also have similar references like New York, dancing with no shoes and of course, nostalgia.

it also kinda reminds me of wonderland, dwoht, afterglow and it's even gayer omfg😭😭

i was just thinking about that!

老婆！！！

In some parts of asia, there is a folk lore about the red sky. When the sky turns red, it will rain later. That's why we have Maroon, and Midnight Rain. So genius Ms Swift.

@LBnekoincorrect. Maroon is for harry

@Fernando Martins maroon is for Tom Hiddleston, Midnight rain is for Taylor Lautner.

Is it like the saying "red sky at night, shepherd's delight; red sky in the morning, shepherd's warning"

@Fernando Martins wait how so?

So it's for tom

Taylor can I ask you a question? How could you write such a marvelous song like this 😭

My favorite song on the album. ❤

Same

Same ❤️

mine too

This is a brilliant song. I mean, she didn't stop with saying only red shades, BUT she also used only visuals where red it's the main colour. Blush, rust, afternoon, wine, carnations, roses., a hicky... SHE'S REALLY A MASTERMIND

there's no 'afternoon' on this song

Taylor Swift - Cute girl Fearless - Popular girl Speak now - Girl in dreams Red- Heartbroken woman 1989- Independent woman Reputation - Queen of Revenge Lover- A woman in love Folklore- Legendary woman Evermore - Famous Poet Midnights - The night watchwoman

Came here to say, this album is not even 24 hours old and this is already my favorite song on the album. It’s heartbreaking and beautiful.

@Francesco Josè Swifty Pollastri91 Well said 👏 👍 👌

@Robin Skull XD Clown!

They're ALL my favorite song!! 😅😅

It tears me to pieces.. 😭 Instant fave..💘💘💘

How much are they paying you to say that

I’m obsessed with this song. Haven’t stopped listening to it in the last 5 days. I keep it on repeat. “Maroon” is a masterpiece. I love this mysterious vibe.

Amo esta canción 😕🫶🏻

one of the best beats and compositions on the album

I just realized something!! This is called Maroon because that’s how she felt after this breakup - like she’d been marooned. What a clever word artist! Tay’s creative writing paints pictures and makes you really think. She also makes you empathize with her because of her raw emotion and unabashed honesty. Truly, she is one of the greatest artists to emerge on the music scene in a really long time. Her vocal range, while not superb, is more than made up for by her ability to captivate. All songwriters should take a leaf from her book.

can we talk about how this song started to be like a storytelling of a reminiscible kind of love but in the end, it sounded scary and hunting as if it turned out it was that kind of love which was nostalgic but burned you.

Yeah...

it's the best song in the album for me, undeniable love her way of expressing feelings through colours

Colors of a RAINBOW "IS" Tay'shah Taylor Re'-shiyth Swift NG

agree

same bruhh sameee i feel the samee

Honestly, it’s the best on the album together with Midnight Rain and Labyrinth they make my Holy Trinity.

@Robin Skull Stop

The story between merely a few lines, from ''Laughing with my feet in your lap'' to ''Sobbing with your head in your hands'' I'M BLOWN AWAY.

"...the blood rushed to my cheeks so scarlet it was maroon" sis said she blushed in shakespearean omfg

❤

@Mr & Mr Cantu's lmaoooo no, the mark on her collarbone is a hickey 😭

I believe she is referring to turning red as in angry she also mention that it left a mark on her collarbone and people saw it so not sure if that wine glass was throw at her and left a mark

@Jaymar Bautista lmao no

i am unconditionally and irrevocably in love with this song

Taylor inspired me to go all in with my music. She was once just like me, an artist without many listeners. And now she’s on top. I believe it will happen for me one day, Im not stopping when it does! 🧡

This song captures my heartbreak over losing my second husband. The lips I used to call home hits TKO. His behavior blew up our marriage; he refused marriage counseling. Still grieving.

this song needs to be more appreciated. i’ve seen almost no one speaking about it!

My ultimate fav from ts songs

@irinaimme i commented this the day the album came out when i had seen absolutely no one talking about it

we must be on different sides of Tik Tok

It has to be a single

this one and karma are my faves

It usually takes me a little longer to connect with slower songs at first listen and this was no exception. But damn it's really become one of my favorites on the album, the chorus is beautiful.

The more I listen to this song, the more I want to hear it again, and again, and again, it is addictive!

I love that my soul got attached to this since the first time I listened to it. The music, the words and the meaning is magical

De lejos mejor canción de este álbum!!💗❤️💗

Essa música é o meu loop diário. Quase uma oração do dia! kakaka

KING OF MY HEART + DRESS child 😭😭😭😭

with just the tiniest reference to Red with the color theme

call it what u want twin as well

@Gabriel Lima true

True

haha i was thinking something similar

This album is not only a piece of art, it is a piece of history, each song leaves you with an unforgettable message! I'm glad to be apart of this journey.

The best lyrical masterpiece ever written by Taylor Swift.. and my favourite track on the Midnights album!

Never knew this song would become my favourite but here I am 😂

Já disse que te amo Taylor, você é pura poesia que sempre esta iluminando minha alma.

essa música é um ícone atemporal 🗣️

I love Taylor so much because she's not just singing a song, she's telling a story that speaks on most behalf of us. MAROON and MIDNIGHT RAIN are my top favorite tracks!!! Insanely beautiful.

I don’t even have a favourite, that’s how much I love midnights!!

my two favorites as well!

Same here!!!

Agreed

I'm obsessed with labyrinth and snow on the beach💞

Essa música merecia ser single. Muito boa!

All her songs and how she writes tell a story I feel we all relate to in some way. She’s so talented. Thanks Taylor 🙏💓💓

The "was" at 2:30 is the best thing to happen to music in many years. Thank you, Tay. You're the best.

pra mim até agora essa é a melhor do álbum

'So scarlet it was maroon' is my favourite line of the whole album. Gives 'loving him was red-burning red' vibes

@Cmdr. Shepard I think it’s fair to also note however the contrasting lyric “ the blood rushed into my cheeks, so scarlet, it was maroon.” So in the sense of context and contrasting lyrics, it’s safe to assume both statements she’s singing about herself. My understanding of this is “ so scarlet, it was maroon” is her looking back and realizing something else. Scarlet and Maroon are both shades of Red, however Maroon is much darker. She has described her self has having her iconic red lips constantly in songs- and it’s become somewhat of a character of her. “ the lips I use to call home” as if it’s her identity. It defines her- but she ‘use to’ as if there’s now inner turmoil. it feels almost as if in this song she’s reflecting now and almost realizing there was something darker behind all of this. Not necessarily HER, but whatever this song is about- it seems to kind of imply lyrically - “ the blood rushed into my cheeks, so scarlet (but) it was maroon” Under the assumption it was lighter, brighter- innocent. But in hindsight, she now realizes it wasn’t that. It was maroon. Darker, more damaging. Supporting this further is the contrasting “ I chose you” and “ I lost you”. The song seems to be self reflecting and realizing what she thought was bright “ scarlet” was actually darker “ maroon”. Maybe she had a part in it, maybe she’s second guessing herself. Maybe she’s lost and doesn’t know who or how to define herself, maybe it’s almost her blaming herself to some point. It’s hard to decipher.

CARNATIONS YOU HAD THOUGHT WERE ROSES

I just think it’s such a beautiful way to describe love with the color maroon instead of burning red here, as if love becomes more mature and serene with the passing of time.

@Cmdr. Shepard Rust isn't normally described as being scarlet either . If you listen closely, all the shades of red are mentioned: burgundy, ruby, scarlet, maroon.

I was actually thinking she named it maroon because the “love” she thought she had in red went bad. And she said in daylight she doesn’t think love is red anymore it’s golden. But that’s far out there.

Taylor must give us a videoclip of Maroon. This song is perfect. So addictive! Please Taylor!! Justice for Maroon ❤❤

Yesss

This song is probably my favorite right now! Of course, I'm listening to the whole album on repeat right now, but absolutely LOVE this song! Hope to hear it on tour!

I have always hated her music from the beginning l. but this Album is a masterpiece. I can finally say I’m a Taylor fan.

Maroon is a masterpiece of storytelling. It's my favorite Taylor Swift song ever. Shame it doesn't have a music video.

MAROON is the BEST song in Midnights and maybe of Taylor's whole discography Idc what other swiftie would say. This is THE song yall😭

Agreed!!

the way she sang "it was maroon" feels so different from everything taylor's sung before!! I love this song

Exactly and it's soo addicting tooo like I am listening to this song repeat just so I can hear her sing that line 😂❤️✨️

This song is everything!!!!!!! I can’t describe it! It’s on replay

Thanks the feedback,rich out to the above name's I've something for you📦

i think this is probably the best song she’s ever written tbh

I’m an old lady and I LOVE this new album and Maroon and MidnightRain is my favorite ❤

Me too

Maroon is effortlessly and magically beautiful. Shows how much she has command over words, vocals and on music.Taylor is Music Industry for a reason.

a maior do album

it’s crazy how i wasn’t expecting much from this title track pre album release, and turns out this becomes my most favorite song off the album 😭✨

SAME OMG

sameee

OMG LITERALLY THE SAME

SAME

That’s what usually happens when you have low expectations…they can easily be exceeded. I was so hyped for “Snow on the Beach” and that turned out to be fine, but “Maroon” is definitely a standout for me.

I'm in love with how she sings '' When the silence came we, were shaking blind a hazy '' it sounds magical 😍

THIS SONG IS A REAL WORK OF ART. When I listened to folklore I thought there could be nothing better but Istg the lyrics, the beat, the chorus just EVRYTHING about this song and rest of the album is PERFECT. Nobody can convince me otherwise

Maroon is pulling a Champagne Problems, August, ATW, Cruel Summer, Don’t Blame Me as the fan favourite and deserve to have it’s own MV ❤

Taylor can definitely make you feel the strongest form of empathy ❤❤

BEST SONG ON THE ALBUM!

"Loving him was red" - Red "Losing him was blue" - Red "Missing him was dark gray all alone" - Red "It's blue, the feeling I've got" - Cruel Summer "I just wanna stay in this lavender haze" - Lavender Haze "My heart's been borrowed and your's has been blue" - Lover "I thought love would be burning red, but it's golden" - Daylight "Deep blue, but you painted me golden" - Dancing with our Hands Tied "I blew things out of proportion, now you're blue" - Afterglow "How scarlet it was; maroon" - Maroon "Did I paint your bluest skies the darkest gray?" - coney island "Don't want no other shade of blue but you" - hoax Only Taylor Swift could use colors so well to express everything so deep.

@Ankita rubies aren't colors?

you forgot 'made your mark on me, a golden tattoo' - Dress

Halsey literally has song called colors🤣 this is awesome and I love it but only her?😅

“give me the blues, and then purple pink skies” - invisible string

@Viva Marie ahahaha that’s a metaphor for summer, and the last part of the song was gold means fall… it’s still a lil metaphor to avoid saying summer 😉

Es la canción que más me gustó del álbum. Esta como para ponerla mientras vas en el auto.

This song ! one of my favorites from this album. Love it so much.

first song I heard from this album, fall in love with this forever❤️

The lyricism in this is so beautiful 😭

Her lyrics are like looking straight into a diary. I love it. Beautiful album.

the way she expresses her feelings using colors and sounds is so meaningful... In 'Red', she described the youthful and passionate kind of love that she had experienced with an upbeat production. Now in 'Maroon', she is describing that love but with more maturity using mellow production, just like the maroon as a toned down shade of red.

@noumineLike ATW?I don't think so

@Alvisa Dervish no it's tom hiddleston it's the same sample

@noumine No, this is about Harry Styles.

I like to think of it as like a deeper more profound version of red, not a toned down one

@noumine why’d you blur out his name? Lol

What a stunning track!)🎧 I can't stop listening to this. Much love, Ms. Taylor Swift!)♥️💜💖

Every Song of Taylor Swift is Pure Poetry :')

This song is my life I adore it soo much❤

Please sing this masterpiece on the eras tour😭

Quero clipe de todas as músicas desse álbum taylor eu imploro

This is gonna be on repeat for the rest of the month.

For the rest of my life!

RIP repeat button haha

* forever in me

*decade

*year

My favorite midnight song. ❤️

Songs from Taylor Swift are very relatable and i love her songs. It is such an inspiration. Taylor swift made a wonderful songs everytime 👏

Such an awesome song. Taylor has really grown so much as an artist. Her lyrics are more matured and rhythm is perfect. All the tracks are perfect to enjoy the "Midnight"....Love it.

This album was recorded really well. The bass is huge and the vocals don't get overly trebly.

You cannot deny this woman’s writing talenttttt

Maroon is almost a purplish red color. It’s unique in a lot of ways. The imagery is just compelling us to really dig deep into what Taylor must have been going through at the time she was with this person she can’t seem to forget. It’s about reminiscing the times where everything felt safe and peaceful.

@Hopee Gallera it can be if you want....metaphor....

Thank you so much

Wait I thought this song was about hickeys?

@Janet Juarez scarlet word already enough to explain

@Janet Juarez same. I was like 🤔

Definitely one of my favorites from Midnights album this song has been on repeat non stop today on Halloween ✌🎃👊

I m new Taylor fan, since Folklore.. When I heard this album I was skeptical if I will like it.. but then this song and Midnight rains just remained with me.. its 7 days.. I am still listen to these two, also Snow on the beach added to the list now

This song feels so different The details in every line just puts the pieces together so perfectly. The emotions put into this song is just so overwhelming I've never been much of a fan of Taylor but this song really amazes me. It makes my heart beat. Fav song in the album.

My favorite. I love the music, the words, that beat. It is just so beautiful.

Lyrically reminds me of “Red”, musically reminds me of “Dress” with a lower register. Excellent song!!!!!

There seems to be an underlying sadness in the songs I've listen too from this album, I wish her well and hope that she will continue to share her great talent with all of us. Taylor is the Greatest Of All Time. Best wishes to Taylor and thank you!

🥺💔💖

Literally all of her last 3 albums has sadness thru out

I noticed that as well. It shows she a human that goes through real thing like the rest of us. Its relatable. She truly puts her feelings in her music. It what I love about her and why I love her music.

I loved how you put a lot of colors of red Oh yeah and I've heard your new midnight album on repeat everyday

Slept in. Just woke up. Holding my wife, listening to this song at sunrise... and the sky, it was, maroon!🤗

Just listen to this for the first time.. amazing! On repeat🔁

We will never forget this song and it will never get old
