Taylor’s explanation on Exile: “Exile was a song that was written about miscommunications in relationships, and in the case of this song I imagine that the miscommunications ended the relationship - that they led to sort of the demise of this love affair. And now these two people are seeing each other out for the first time and they keep miscommunicating with each other, they can’t quite get on the same page, they never were able to. So even in their end, even after they’ve broken up they’re still not hearing each other, so we imagined that the beginning of it would be his side of the story, second verse would be her side of the story, and then the end would be sort of them talking over each other and not listening to the other, sort of like an argument. Yeah, I’m really stoked about how it turned out because it really does seem like this sort of tragedy of two people, two ships passing in the night.”

Justin Vernon is the lead singer of Bon Iver (which is technically a band not a person, kind of confusing) and William Bowery is someone with zero internet presence or other writing credits besides another song on this album and all clues seem to point to him being Taylor’s boyfriend Joe but they’re super private so I doubt we’ll ever get actual confirmation. She loves a pseudonym, she’s written as Nils Sjoberg a couple times and she, her brother and Jack Antonoff released a cover of her own song under a fake band name recently. She loves a mystery lol.

Not sure what kind of guitars 🎸 you have or what they do but I think her song “peace” would be something you’d like. I watched a producer react and he said it was a base that harmonized to itself? If that is interesting to you / is check it out. I think the lyrics to the song are AMAZING. It’s the best one on the album got me because of the simple base and just her singing.

CSProductions.29 yes! It’s on folklore. Pretty sure it’s worded for her current boyfriend of 3.5 years. There are a few lines you can relate to other songs though too. (Her mind is something else to be able to build a world from all of these what-ifs and then tell the perspective of that other person). She also has been known to go back to older songs in her catalogue and pull ideas from them or their videos. There are some die-hard swifties that are trying to decipher all the clues from each song and how they inter-join. It’s WILD! And super cool that an artist does that extra bit to give their fans something else besides just the songs. She is unmatched for someone in the music industry that takes every opportunity possible to give clues and hints to her fans to show them what the song was really about.

Justin Vernon is the lead vocalist of Bon Iver, the guy singing in this song. William Bowery is a pseudonym for Joe Alwyn, Taylor Swift's boyfriend. He wrote that main piano progression and most of the lyrics. You should check out The Long Pond Studio Sessions version of this song. I think it's a million times better.

Being a KZitem music critic while not knowing who Justin Vernon suggests it's time to expand your range. Bon Iver is only one of the most respected indie bands in the world, and Justin has also been part of the Big Red Machine -- the pianist in this piece is also part of BRM in addition to being a member of The National -- as well as Volcano Choir. Check him out; you'll be a better critic and musician for taking the time to listen. And sorry to drop the criticism first -- I actually like the video.
