Join us up here on the pink cloud for "Pink Clouding," the third track from "The Encore" from Taylor Swift's "The Life of a Showgirl." Join Exquisite and Hannah as they analyze this song line by line, from the shades of pink to the exhilerating highs to the extreme vulnerability (hello, "Back to December"). And yes, we compare the song to "Getaway Car," but stick around to hear Exquisite compare it to another Taylor Swift classic, and how Taylor re-recording this song may have sparked this new perspective in "Pink Clouding."

We Kick It With Patient Zero on The Taylor Seminars
We had A LOT to say about the "Patient Zero," the first of four tracks on Taylor Swift's "The Encore." We see Taylor baring her soul, not just to the audience, but to another woman who is in the same predicament she was once in. We go through the song, line by line, seeing how ill the singer was but also how she's willing to help the woman who is now in her shoes. The, for the last third of the episode, we delve into the Patient Zero music video and how it gives us even more insight into the song. NOTE: If you or someone you know is in an unsafe relationship, please reach out to the DV hotline: 1.800.799.SAFE (7233) . We see you.P.S. If you're watching on video, the first few seconds are not synced properly with the sound (sorry!) but it should clear up pretty quick!!Enjoy the episode? Buy us a cup of coffee on Ko-Fi!
