The series continues, and this week’s songs are coming in hot and heart-wrenching: Dress and Hits Different.Dress marked one of Taylor’s first unapologetically sexy songs. It’s sultry, intimate, and gave us that now-iconic “only bought this dress so you could take it off” lyric.
Then there’s Hits Different—one of my all-time favorites. I truly believe it holds the same emotional weight as All Too Well, but because it’s upbeat, it’s often overlooked. Just because you’re dancing doesn’t mean your heart isn’t breaking.

We’re back with Part 4 of “I CANNOT BELIEVE we have these songs from Taylor Swift,” and this week’s picks? Absolute masterpieces: Mr. Perfectly Fine and False God.Mr. Perfectly Fine gave us the first true use of “casually cruel”—after All Too Well made it iconic but technically this was it's first use. It’s cheeky, cutting, and classic Fearless-era sass filtered through vault-era perspective. Then we move into False God—the sexy, sax-filled, slow-burn standout from Lover that proves Taylor knows how to do grown-up sultry storytelling like no one else.Check out the Spotify playlist here: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/78raNEy4pXy1E3PEhSOxo1?si=4b4b43e18f7d441f 🎧 Tune in to hear why these two made my “I CANNOT BELIEVE” list📩 Got a pick of your own?

We’re continuing the series with Part 3 of “I CANNOT BELIEVE we have these songs from Taylor Swift,” and this week I’m adding two absolute gems to the list: Paper Rings and Delicate.
Paper Rings was the first time Taylor explicitly said she wanted to get married—and it came wrapped in high-energy, playful instrumentation that I just can’t get enough of. And Delicate? It captures that suspended moment between casual dating and emotional vulnerability—when you want something more but aren’t sure if it’s safe to ask for it yet. Taylor nailed that terrifying but necessary feeling.

We’re back with Part Two of the series: “I CANNOT BELIEVE we have these songs from Taylor Swift.” This time, I’m diving into two absolute standouts—Anti-Hero and Guilty As Sin?
From the raw vulnerability and self-awareness in Anti-Hero to the dreamy instrumentals and jaw-dropping storytelling in Guilty As Sin?, these tracks are proof of Taylor’s genius—and why we’re so lucky to have them in her discography.

Ever judge people for crying over celebrities? Yeah... same. Until Taylor Swift came into my life.
In this heartfelt episode of No Rules: Random Thoughts of a Swiftie, I open up about my transformation—from a skeptical outsider to a full-blown Swiftie who gets teary-eyed thinking about Taylor’s wins, her growth, her love life, and her music. 😭✨
I reflect on:
Why I didn’t understand celebrity grief in my 20s
How Taylor Swift completely shifted my perspective
Getting emotional over The Eras Tour, Taylor’s Versions, and her happiness 💘
How being a fan as an adult hits different
If Taylor has ever made you cry tears of joy or healing, this one’s for you.
Press play and let’s talk about what it means to be deeply moved by someone you've never met—but feel like you know.
Fellow Swifties.... I'M BACK & I have a new theory about “Tolerate It”!After taking a break, No Rules: Random Thoughts of a Swiftie is BACK & we’re coming in hot with a bold take on one of Taylor Swift’s most devastating tracks, “Tolerate It.”In this episode, I catch you up on where I’ve been, what to expect this season, and I share some exciting news: No Rules is now officially part of the Gotham Network, and I’m recording from our brand-new Gotham Network Studio!Then, I dive deep into why I believe “Tolerate It” isn’t about a wife speaking to a husband—but about a teenage son speaking to his emotionally distant father. Yep, we’re flipping the perspective. I unpack key lyrics, explore family and parental dynamics, and talk about how this interpretation changes the emotional weight of the song entirely.Whether you're into lyric analysis, bold Swiftie theories, or just love exploring new angles on Taylor's discography, this episode is for you.🎙️ Let’s grow this community.

Hear me out. I felt and still feel somewhat weird about the meta-ness of But Daddy, I Love Him, and I Can Do It with a Broken Heart Eras Tour performances, calling out fans while performing in front of fans. Has anyone else felt this or had any thoughts surrounding this?

Where are my EVERMORE stans at? Even if Evermore isn't in your top Taylor Swift albums, I'm still going to try to convince you why Cowboy Like Me is a fantastic song and why I think it should be the basis of a full-length feature film written and directed by Taylor Swift herself.
