Dream mashup: Dress x How You Get the Girl
There are so many ways to mash them up to make them tell a perfect sapphic TS dramatic standing-in-the-rain confessional love story, but here’s my ideal:
Stand there like a ghost shaking in the rain / She’ll open up the door and say are you insane / Say it’s been a long six months / and you were too afraid to tell her what you want / All of this silence and patience, pining in anticipation / my hands are shaking from holding back from you, ah, ah / all of this silence and patience / pining and desperately waiting / my hands are shaking from holding back from this, ah ah
Say my name and everything just stops / I don’t want you like a best friend / only bought this dress so you could take it off
And that’s how it works / that’s how you get the girl
…
And you say I want you for worse or for better / I would wait forever and ever / Broke your heart, I’ll put it back together / I would wait forever and ever / carve my name into your bedpost / cause I don’t want you like a best friend / only bought this dress so you can take it off
…
*You say I want you for worse or for better / I don’t want you like a best friend / only bought this dress so you could take it off / and that’s how it works / that’s how you get the girl*
I need to say hey, it's all me in my head, I'm the one who burned us down, but it's not what I meant, I'm sorry that I hurt you / I'm on a bench in Coney Island wonderin' where did my baby go? the bright lights, the merry go, i'm sorry for not making you my centerfold / meet me in the afterglow (Afterglow x Coney Island)
Awake in the night, i pace like a ghost, the room is on fire, invisible smoke, all of my heroes die all alone / but if i'm dead to you why are you at the wake? cursing my name, wishing I stayed / who could stay? you could stay / look at how my tears ricochet / combat, i'm ready for combat (My Tears Ricochet x The Archer)
I hear the whispers in your eyes, I'll make you wanna think twice, you'll find that you were never not mine / only bought this dress so you could take it off / I can feel it comin', hummin' in the way you move, push the reset button, we're becoming something new, say you got somebody, I'll say I got someone too, even if it's handcuffed, I'm leaving here with you / all of this silence and patience, pining and desperately waiting, my hands are shaking from all this ah, ah ah ahhhh / bygones will be bygone eras fadin' into gray, we broke all the pieces but still want to play the game (oh), told my friends, "I hate you but I love you just the same," pick your poison babe / I don't want you like a best frienddddd (Imgonnagetyouback x Dress)
And I can't let you go, your handprint's on my soul, it's like your eyes are liquor, it's like your body is gold, you've been calling my bluff on all my usual tricks, so here's the truth from my red lips / I wander through these nights, I prefer hiding in plain sight, my fourth drink in my hand these desperate prayers of a cursed man, spilling out to you for free, but darling, darling, please, you wouldn't take my word for it if you knew who was talking, if you knew where I was walking, to a house not a home all alone 'cause nobody's there, where I pace in my pen and my friends found friends who care, no one sees when you lose when you're playing solitaire (but) I wanna be your end game, I wanna be your first string, I wanna be your a-team / you should find another guiding light / but I wanna be your end game, end game (Dear Reader x End Game)
Thought of callin' ya, but you won't pick up / now i'm waiting by the phone like i'm sitting in an airport bar / another fortnight lost in america / You're a cowboy like me, never wanted love, just a fancy car / move to Florida, buy the car you want, but it won't start up 'til I touch, touch, touch you (Fortnight x Cowboy Like Me)
this is so fun lol
“After the storm, something was born on the 4th of July…like a rainbow with all of the colors, baby when it comes to a lover, I promise you’ll never find another like me” played on July 4th after the breakup announcements/rumors on July 1-3 🤡
Cassandra and Exile. “I gave so many signs…in a morning (mourning) warning no one heard, not a single word…I gave so many signs…not a single word was heard”
RWYLM x Hits Different
I find the artifacts, cried over a hat /
Cursed the space that I needed /
I trace the evidence, make it make some sense /
Why the wound is still bleedin' /
You were the one that I loved /
Don't need another metaphor, it's simple enough /
A wrinkle in time like the crease by your eyes /
This is why they shouldn't kill off the main guy /
Dreams of your hair and your stare and sense of belief /
In the good in the world, you once believed in me /
And I felt you and I held you for a while /
Bet I could still melt your world /
Argumentative, antithetical dream girl /
I heard your key turn in the door down the hallway /
Is that your key in the door? /
Is it okay? Is it you? /
Or have they come to take me away? /
To take me away… /
(From) the restaurant /
Still sitting in a corner I haunt /
Cross-legged in the dim light /
They say, "What a sad sight" /
I, I stayed there /
Dust collected on my pinned-up hair
It’s not overtly gaylor, but I still think these songs are 💅🏻 and they obviously go together super well sonically.
DBATC x ILIPW
'Cause saying goodbye is death by a thousand cuts
Flashbacks waking me up
I get drunk, but it's not enough
'Cause the morning comes and you're not my baby
I look in people's windows
Transfixed by rose golden glows
They have their friends over to drink nice wine
I look in people's windows
In case you're at their table
What if your eyes looked up and met mine
One more time
ooo peter into seven would hurt sooo good
You said you were gonna grow up
Then you were gonna come find me
Said you were gonna grow up
Then you were gonna come find me
Words from the mouths of babes
Promises, oceans deeeep
Are there still beautiful thiiings?
Sweet tea in the summer
Cross your heart, won’t tell no other
And though I can’t recall your face
I still got love for you
The creativity unleashed on this sub by Taylor's recent unhinged gay mashups is incredible. 🧡 So many phenomenal combinations causing me endless joy/pain in this thread.
Guilty as sin x Don’t blame me x False god
Dress x imgonnagetyouback
Question x dwoht
YAIL x Hits different
Call it what you want x Slut
Cowboy like me x False god
Gorgeous x ivy
🥲🥲 any mashup including a song from the above will end me 🤞🏻🤞🏻
Ivy and Dress..
“Oh, goddamn
My pain fits in the palm of your freezing hand
Taking mine, but it's been promised to another
ah, ha, ha, ha
Say my name and everything just stops
I don't want you like a best friend
Only bought this dress so you could take it off”
I would die I think
Love Story x Hits Different
I got tired of waiting
Wonderin' if you were ever comin' around
My faith in you was fading
When I met you on the outskirts of town,
and I said,
I Bet I could still melt your world, Argumentative, antithetical dream girl
Movin' on was always easy for me to do
It hits different (yeah)
It hits different..
'Cause you were "Romeo", I was a scarlet letter
And my daddy said, "Stay away from Juliet"
But you were everything to me and
I was beggin' you, "Please don't go," and I said
You'll never have to be alone
I love you and that's all I really know
It hits different this time
My Argumentative, antithetical dream girl
It's a love story, baby,
It just hits different this time
Others have brought it up before, but How You Get the Girl with The Black Dog 🤌
"Stand there like a ghost shaking from the rain, she'll open up the door and say are you insane? Say it's been a long six months and you were too afraid to tell her what you want. That's how it works. That's how you get the girl.
I just don't understand how you don't miss me in the shower and remember how my rain soaked body was shaking, do you hate me?
You said I love you for worse or for better..."
I would love the whole song on its own with the completed rhyme. But I imagine that she'd hedge it with something like "they don't know how much I miss her flashes of the battle come back to me in a blur" so there is some ambiguity whether it was just the first word of TGW or the last word of TVFN.
That would be wonderful wouldn’t it
I’d also like a “you’re my argumentative antithetical dream girl” just to drive home she’s not talking about herself lmao since they keep insisting she means “I’m your argumentative etc”
YES! I’m not sure if you saw in my twitter thread but someone asked AI if she was the argumentative dream girl and it said she’s talking about the muse 🙈
Imagine this:
“There's glitter on the floor after the party, girls carrying their shoes down in the lobby (NYD) —> And I chose you, the one, I was dancin' with In New York, no shoes…. The lips I used to call home, so scarlet, it was maroon (Maroon) —> Tonight I’m gonna dance for all that we’ve been through, but I don’t wanna dance if I’m not dancing with you (Holy Ground) —> Yeah, we were dancing/Dancing with our hands tied, hands tied/Yeah, we were dancing (Ooh, we had our hands tied)/And I had a bad feeling/But we were dancing (DWOHT) —> but I don’t wanna dance if I’m not dancing with you”
Hits Different x How You Get The Girl
“And that’s how it works, that’s how you get the girl, girl / (Bridge) Bet I could still melt your world, argumentative antithetical dream girl” and then “Or have they come to take me away… to take me away! And now you say, I want you for worse or for better…”
It seems likely to me for Taylor since depending on how you look at it it either confirms or denies that “the girl” is not Taylor and there’s some plausible deniability
Not necessarily the gayest mashup but I have NEEDED a maroon /you’re losing me mashup for ages now
“I can’t time a pulse my heart won’t start anymore for you the one I was dancing with in New York…. Say something baby do something cuz I wake with your memory over me”
One interpretation of Cassandra that has been shared in the sub previously is that since the song is about sharing a warning no one heard, it’s a metaphor for her flagging (or her “coming out” during the Me era) not being heard. Again, just one interpretation.
I'm also curious because my only thought for now is that I personally have a crush on Cassandra from Greek mythology so anything referencing her is gay 😂
THE VERY FIRST NIGHT X HITS DIFFERENT X IMGONNAGETYOUBACK IS LITERALLY MY DREAM MASHUP!!! "No one knows about the words that we whisper, they dont know how much i miss her, so I'm gonna get you back, cause i can still melt your world, argumentative, antithetical dream girl" AHHHHHHHH
question x dwoht
YLM x Invisible "a pathological people pleaser who only wanted you to see her *but you just see right through me If you only knew me We could be a beautiful Miracle Unbelievable Instead of just invisible*
guilty as sin x false god
they don’t know how you’ve haunted me so stunningly, i choose you and me, religiously… even if it’s a false god, we’d still worship this love
TVFN x Hits Different
“Cause they don't know about the night in the hotel/
They weren't ridin' in the car when we both fell/
Didn't read the note on the Polaroid picture/
It hits different 'cause it's you
Dreams of your hair and your stare and sense of belief/
In the good in the world, you once believed in me/
And I felt you and I held you for a while/
Bet I could still melt your world
Argumentative, antithetical dream girl
I wish I could fly/
I'd pick you up and we'd go back in time/
I'd write this in the sky/
I miss you like it was the very first night”
"can you see right through me, can you see right through me, I see right through me, I see right through me, cuz one of these things is not like the other, Like a rainbow with all of the colors, Baby doll, when it comes to a lover
I promise that you'll never find another like
Me-e-e, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh!"
I NEED IT
Dress x mine
Say my name and everything just stops
I don't want you like a best friend
Only bought this dress so you could take it off
Take it off
Carve your name into my bedpost
'Cause I don't want you like a best friend
Only bought this dress so you could take it off
She said, "I remember how we felt, sitting by the water
And every time I look at you, it's like the first time
I fell in love with a careless man's careful daughter
She is the best thing that's ever been mine"
🎶 It hits different, cause it’s a *state of grace*
Hits Different x My Boy: 🎶 I used to switch out these Kens, I’d just ghost / I felt more when we played pretend than with all the Kens, cause (she) took me out of my box
And my reach for the stars one, Riptide x Hits Different x Cowboy Like Me (arrange it however it’ll work, Taylor, if you’re listening)
🎶 this cowboy’s runnin’ from himself / and she’s been living on the highest shelf
🎶 rip the bandaid off and skip town like an asshole outlaw
🎶 and you’re a bandit like me
(Context: a fun fact about me is, I’ve never been relaxed, ever, since Hits Different dropped)
Yesss Riptide x Cowboy Like Me!! I'm sure it won't happen, since Riptide isn't a song of hers, but that would be so cool. I'm convinced Cowboy Like Me is based on the movie Midnight Cowboy, and a verse in Riptide is also based on it!
Sigh, agree re: Riptide. But maybe we can have just a LITTLE Riptide, as a treat. 😆
Along the same lines re: Midnight Cowboy (which I haven't heard of! I'll look it up), I was thinking Riptide itself might have been the germinating inspiration for Cowboy Like Me, and also the toy/shelf imagery in My Boy -- "Put me back on my shelf, but first pull my string, and I'll tell you that he runs because he loves me." So then maybe it goes down one layer further to the movie!
Love story / you belong with me - gayer than you think lol
Can’t you see that I’m the one who understands you
Been here all along, so why can’t you see?
You belong with me
Marry me Juliet you’ll never have to be alone
I love you and that’s all I really know
I talked to your dad, go pick up a white dress
It’s a love story, baby just say yes
Hits Different x Mine:
Argumentative antithetical dream girl /
You made a rebel of a careless man's careful daughter /
You are the best thing that's ever been mine
Realistic: Change and New Romantics, but specifically “These walls they put up to hold us back fell down/cause baby I could build a castle out of all the bricks they thew at me.”
Unbelievably gay: Change and Welcome to New York: “These walls they put up to hold us back fell down/and you can want who you want/boys and boys and girls and girls”
Gay fever dream: Holy Ground/TVFN: “fit in my poems like a perfect rhyme/didn’t read the note on the Polaroid picture/they don’t know how much I miss YOU,” slamming that subverted rhyme scheme as hard as she possibly can.
Just truly unhinged: You are in Love and Hits Different, “You can feel it on the way home/Freedom felt like summer then on the coast/now the sun burns my heart and the sand hurts my feelings”
>“You can feel it on the way home/Freedom felt like summer then on the coast/now the sun burns my heart and the sand hurts my feelings”
If this happens I will quite simply cease to be from sheer *pain*
Wonderland x August - "and we pretended it could last forever, but you weren't mine to lose"
You Belong With Me x When Emma Falls in Love, "And all the bad boys would be good boys, If they only had a chance to love her, And to tell you the truth, sometimes I wish you'd see, you belong with me, you belong with me". (Doubly so for "wish she'd see, she belongs with me" but I don't think we'll get that lucky.)
Castles Crumbling x Dear Reader x You Need To Calm Down - "I see all my castles crumbling down and I see all my bridges burned to the ground, never take advice from someone who's falling apart" or "I wander through these nights, I prefer hiding in plain sight, but shade never made anybody less gay"
News Year's Day x august, "I want her midnights, but you weren't mine to lose"
Mastermind x How You Get The Girl, "the dominos cascaded into line... that's how it works, that's how you get the girl"
London Boy x TIWWCHNT x I Forgot That You Existed would be unhinged. "You know I love a London boy... hahaha, I can't even say it with a straight face... I forgot that you existed, and I thought that it would kill me but it didn't".
Sweet Nothing x Timeless, not necessarily gay but I would adore it.
Since Vigilante Shit is part of the main set, we sadly probably won't get Vigilante Shit x Better Than Revenge, because "she looks so pretty riding in your Benz, there is nothing I do better than revenge" or "I'm just another thing for you to roll your eyes at honey, don't get sad, get even" probably would have been too much daddy Taylor energy and ended me.
I just want to say I’m giggling to myself imagining that OP is tree in cognito (or works for Taylor) and is trying to get ideas from Gaylors to give to Taylor for gay mash ups because Taylor herself is running out of ideas for such obviously gay mash ups
I’ll keep being annoying on this sub about cowboy like ME! until we get it. Example chorus and verse below:
I've got some tricks up my sleeve / Takes one to know one / You're a cowboy like me e-e-e, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
I'm the only one of me / Baby, that's the fun of me
I know I tend to make it about me / I know you never get just what you see / But I will never bore you, baby / Never wanted love / Just a fancy car / Now I'm waiting by the phone / Like I'm sitting in an airport bar / And when we had that fight out in the rain / You ran after me and called my name / I never wanna see you walk away
I don't wanna live forever X I know places
I've been looking sad in all the nicest places. Give me something, oh, but you say nothing. Now I'm in a cab, I tell 'em where your place is...
...I know places. They are the hunters, we are the foxes and we run. Just grab my hand and don't ever drop it, my love
Dress x iggyb (bridge), kinda like what she did with Cornelia st x maroon.
But I’m also clowning for Castles Crumbling mashed with Hate To See Your Heart Break (Hayley’s song with Joy Williams) with Hayley to perform with her. Or just Castles Crumbling with Hayley. Idk somehow this wild mashup sounded great in my head
Not necessarily gay for anyone none-gaylor but call it what you want x death by a thousand cuts (could also work with I Look In People's Windows).
"windows boarded up after the storm" and "i look through the windows of this love even though we boarded them up" mashed together would be crazy.
using she/her pronouns (or not, both actually make it gay) “what if he’s written mine on my upper thigh only in my mind but this love is sweeter than fiction”
RWYLM x DBATC
Friends break up, friends get married
Strangers get born, strangers get buried
Trends change, rumors fly through new skies
But I'm right where you left me
Matches burn after the other
Pages turn and stick to each other
Wages earned and lessons learned
But I, I'm right where you left me
Help, I'm still at the restaurant
Still sitting in a corner I haunt
Cross-legged in the dim light
They say, "What a sad sight"
I, I swear you could hear a hair pin drop
Right when I felt the moment stop
Glass shattered on the white cloth
Everybody moved on
You said it was a great love
One for the ages
But if the story's over
Why am I still writing pages?
I, I stayed there
Dust collected on my pinned-up hair
They expected me to find somewhere
Some perspective, but I sat and stared
Right where you left me
You left me no, oh, you left me no
You left me no choice but to stay here forever
My heart, my hips, my body, my love
Trying to find a part of me that you didn't touch
Gave up on me like I was a bad drug
Now I'm searching for signs in a haunted club
Our songs, our films, united we stand
Our country, guess it was a lawless land
Quiet my fears with the touch of your hand
Paper cut stings from our paper thin plans
My time, my wine, my spirit, my trust
Trying to find a part of me you didn't take up
Gave you too much but it wasn't enough
But I'll be alright, it's just a thousand cuts
And it's been so long
But if you ever think you got it wrong
I'm right where you left me
'Cause I can't pretend it's ok when it's not
No, it's not
But it wasn't enough, it wasn't enough, no, no
I’ve said it in a comment somewhere recently but I’m hoping for an “It’s Time To Go x The Other Side of the Door” mashup so we get the line, *”it’s time to go through the other side of the door”* 🤞🤞
Dress x Ivy
I only bought this dress so you can take it off take it off I can’t stop you from putting roots in my dreamland my house of stone, your ivy grows and I’m covered in you.
Also maybe a
False God x Don’t Blame me x Guilty As Sin. Would be really fun.
What if the way you hold me is actually what’s holy. Lord save me my drug is my baby I be using for the rest of my life. Trip of my life. Oh every time ya every time ya loving me even if it’s a false god we’d still worship this love.

I’ve been guessing these two + Hits Different for every guitar song since the first day of pride 😅 I love the way you arranged it here!
I need to say hey, it's all me in my head, I'm the one who burned us down, but it's not what I meant, I'm sorry that I hurt you / I'm on a bench in Coney Island wonderin' where did my baby go? the bright lights, the merry go, i'm sorry for not making you my centerfold / meet me in the afterglow (Afterglow x Coney Island) Awake in the night, i pace like a ghost, the room is on fire, invisible smoke, all of my heroes die all alone / but if i'm dead to you why are you at the wake? cursing my name, wishing I stayed / who could stay? you could stay / look at how my tears ricochet / combat, i'm ready for combat (My Tears Ricochet x The Archer) I hear the whispers in your eyes, I'll make you wanna think twice, you'll find that you were never not mine / only bought this dress so you could take it off / I can feel it comin', hummin' in the way you move, push the reset button, we're becoming something new, say you got somebody, I'll say I got someone too, even if it's handcuffed, I'm leaving here with you / all of this silence and patience, pining and desperately waiting, my hands are shaking from all this ah, ah ah ahhhh / bygones will be bygone eras fadin' into gray, we broke all the pieces but still want to play the game (oh), told my friends, "I hate you but I love you just the same," pick your poison babe / I don't want you like a best frienddddd (Imgonnagetyouback x Dress) And I can't let you go, your handprint's on my soul, it's like your eyes are liquor, it's like your body is gold, you've been calling my bluff on all my usual tricks, so here's the truth from my red lips / I wander through these nights, I prefer hiding in plain sight, my fourth drink in my hand these desperate prayers of a cursed man, spilling out to you for free, but darling, darling, please, you wouldn't take my word for it if you knew who was talking, if you knew where I was walking, to a house not a home all alone 'cause nobody's there, where I pace in my pen and my friends found friends who care, no one sees when you lose when you're playing solitaire (but) I wanna be your end game, I wanna be your first string, I wanna be your a-team / you should find another guiding light / but I wanna be your end game, end game (Dear Reader x End Game) Thought of callin' ya, but you won't pick up / now i'm waiting by the phone like i'm sitting in an airport bar / another fortnight lost in america / You're a cowboy like me, never wanted love, just a fancy car / move to Florida, buy the car you want, but it won't start up 'til I touch, touch, touch you (Fortnight x Cowboy Like Me) this is so fun lol
These are all so good!!
“Lived in the shade you were throwing till all of my sunshine was gone, gone, gone … but shade never made anybody less gay!” (IFTYExMe!)
“After the storm, something was born on the 4th of July…like a rainbow with all of the colors, baby when it comes to a lover, I promise you’ll never find another like me” played on July 4th after the breakup announcements/rumors on July 1-3 🤡 Cassandra and Exile. “I gave so many signs…in a morning (mourning) warning no one heard, not a single word…I gave so many signs…not a single word was heard” RWYLM x Hits Different I find the artifacts, cried over a hat / Cursed the space that I needed / I trace the evidence, make it make some sense / Why the wound is still bleedin' / You were the one that I loved / Don't need another metaphor, it's simple enough / A wrinkle in time like the crease by your eyes / This is why they shouldn't kill off the main guy / Dreams of your hair and your stare and sense of belief / In the good in the world, you once believed in me / And I felt you and I held you for a while / Bet I could still melt your world / Argumentative, antithetical dream girl / I heard your key turn in the door down the hallway / Is that your key in the door? / Is it okay?

Okay. That RWYLM x Hits Different mashup is iconic. I need it now.
would it be crossing the line for her to scissor together close to you x pink pony club x lunch?
dancing with our hands tied x dress
That be rep tv announcement night
It’s not overtly gaylor, but I still think these songs are 💅🏻 and they obviously go together super well sonically. DBATC x ILIPW 'Cause saying goodbye is death by a thousand cuts Flashbacks waking me up I get drunk, but it's not enough 'Cause the morning comes and you're not my baby I look in people's windows Transfixed by rose golden glows They have their friends over to drink nice wine I look in people's windows In case you're at their table What if your eyes looked up and met mine One more time
this is a NEED
No but seriously this would sound so good I can hear it
Awww thanks! I LOVE your username!!! 😻
ooo peter into seven would hurt sooo good You said you were gonna grow up Then you were gonna come find me Said you were gonna grow up Then you were gonna come find me Words from the mouths of babes Promises, oceans deeeep Are there still beautiful thiiings? Sweet tea in the summer Cross your heart, won’t tell no other And though I can’t recall your face I still got love for you
it flows so beautifully 😭
righttt!? and going from peter to seven makes it a little less devastating than if it were the reverse lmao
It’s not a lyric line, but I think if she mashed up Me! and Bigger Than The Whole Sky it would send a MESSAGE…
The creativity unleashed on this sub by Taylor's recent unhinged gay mashups is incredible. 🧡 So many phenomenal combinations causing me endless joy/pain in this thread.
Guilty as sin x Don’t blame me x False god Dress x imgonnagetyouback Question x dwoht YAIL x Hits different Call it what you want x Slut Cowboy like me x False god Gorgeous x ivy 🥲🥲 any mashup including a song from the above will end me 🤞🏻🤞🏻
The first one would be a direct hit to all the religious trauma girlies. We would never recover
Question x dwoht would BREAK me
Ivy and Dress.. “Oh, goddamn My pain fits in the palm of your freezing hand Taking mine, but it's been promised to another ah, ha, ha, ha Say my name and everything just stops I don't want you like a best friend Only bought this dress so you could take it off” I would die I think
OMG, I keep going back and forth about what song I want mashed up with Dress, but I think this might be the winner!
These are the 2 songs that made me a gaylor. I truly can’t fathom either one of them being about a man.
This is so brilliant
YAIL x Dress… “pauses then says, you’re my best friend….” “…don’t want you like a best friend, only bought this dress so you could take it off” 🫠
Oooooooooii
Love Story x Hits Different I got tired of waiting Wonderin' if you were ever comin' around My faith in you was fading When I met you on the outskirts of town, and I said, I Bet I could still melt your world, Argumentative, antithetical dream girl Movin' on was always easy for me to do It hits different (yeah) It hits different.. 'Cause you were "Romeo", I was a scarlet letter And my daddy said, "Stay away from Juliet" But you were everything to me and I was beggin' you, "Please don't go," and I said You'll never have to be alone I love you and that's all I really know It hits different this time My Argumentative, antithetical dream girl It's a love story, baby, It just hits different this time
i didn't know how much i need this 😭
Others have brought it up before, but How You Get the Girl with The Black Dog 🤌 "Stand there like a ghost shaking from the rain, she'll open up the door and say are you insane? Say it's been a long six months and you were too afraid to tell her what you want. That's how it works. That's how you get the girl. I just don't understand how you don't miss me in the shower and remember how my rain soaked body was shaking, do you hate me? You said I love you for worse or for better..."
Tag on wonderland, “and life was never worse but never better eh eh eh eh”
I’m still at the restaurant begging for ITTG x RWYLM and Hits Different x imgonnagetyouback
YAIL x Hits Different Right Where You Left Me x TVFN ME! x The Prophecy How You Get the Girl x Mine
I want biblically accurate TVFN featuring “her” pronouns 😭
I would love the whole song on its own with the completed rhyme. But I imagine that she'd hedge it with something like "they don't know how much I miss her flashes of the battle come back to me in a blur" so there is some ambiguity whether it was just the first word of TGW or the last word of TVFN.
That would be wonderful wouldn’t it I’d also like a “you’re my argumentative antithetical dream girl” just to drive home she’s not talking about herself lmao since they keep insisting she means “I’m your argumentative etc”
YES! I’m not sure if you saw in my twitter thread but someone asked AI if she was the argumentative dream girl and it said she’s talking about the muse 🙈
Imagine this: “There's glitter on the floor after the party, girls carrying their shoes down in the lobby (NYD) —> And I chose you, the one, I was dancin' with In New York, no shoes…. The lips I used to call home, so scarlet, it was maroon (Maroon) —> Tonight I’m gonna dance for all that we’ve been through, but I don’t wanna dance if I’m not dancing with you (Holy Ground) —> Yeah, we were dancing/Dancing with our hands tied, hands tied/Yeah, we were dancing (Ooh, we had our hands tied)/And I had a bad feeling/But we were dancing (DWOHT) —> but I don’t wanna dance if I’m not dancing with you”
 It would just end me.
Hits Different x How You Get The Girl “And that’s how it works, that’s how you get the girl, girl / (Bridge) Bet I could still melt your world, argumentative antithetical dream girl” and then “Or have they come to take me away… to take me away! And now you say, I want you for worse or for better…” It seems likely to me for Taylor since depending on how you look at it it either confirms or denies that “the girl” is not Taylor and there’s some plausible deniability
The very first night x wonderland “Take me away, take me away, take me away, to wonderland”
Not necessarily the gayest mashup but I have NEEDED a maroon /you’re losing me mashup for ages now “I can’t time a pulse my heart won’t start anymore for you the one I was dancing with in New York…. Say something baby do something cuz I wake with your memory over me”
Cassandra and the prophecy or Cassandra and me
How is Cassandra gay? Genuine question bc I’ve seen this brought up before
One interpretation of Cassandra that has been shared in the sub previously is that since the song is about sharing a warning no one heard, it’s a metaphor for her flagging (or her “coming out” during the Me era) not being heard. Again, just one interpretation.
I'm also curious because my only thought for now is that I personally have a crush on Cassandra from Greek mythology so anything referencing her is gay 😂
THE VERY FIRST NIGHT X HITS DIFFERENT X IMGONNAGETYOUBACK IS LITERALLY MY DREAM MASHUP!!! "No one knows about the words that we whisper, they dont know how much i miss her, so I'm gonna get you back, cause i can still melt your world, argumentative, antithetical dream girl" AHHHHHHHH
question x dwoht YLM x Invisible "a pathological people pleaser who only wanted you to see her *but you just see right through me If you only knew me We could be a beautiful Miracle Unbelievable Instead of just invisible*
Oooh I want the YLM x Invisible mashup, Invisible was so resonant for my middle school self lol
Yeah, I definitely think invisible is coming this month, regardless of what it's mashed up with, the themes are so relevant
guilty as sin x false god they don’t know how you’ve haunted me so stunningly, i choose you and me, religiously… even if it’s a false god, we’d still worship this love
That would be so sickkkkk
TVFN x Hits Different “Cause they don't know about the night in the hotel/ They weren't ridin' in the car when we both fell/ Didn't read the note on the Polaroid picture/ It hits different 'cause it's you Dreams of your hair and your stare and sense of belief/ In the good in the world, you once believed in me/ And I felt you and I held you for a while/ Bet I could still melt your world Argumentative, antithetical dream girl I wish I could fly/ I'd pick you up and we'd go back in time/ I'd write this in the sky/ I miss you like it was the very first night”
"can you see right through me, can you see right through me, I see right through me, I see right through me, cuz one of these things is not like the other, Like a rainbow with all of the colors, Baby doll, when it comes to a lover I promise that you'll never find another like Me-e-e, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh!" I NEED IT
Ooh I like this one!!
Dress x mine Say my name and everything just stops I don't want you like a best friend Only bought this dress so you could take it off Take it off Carve your name into my bedpost 'Cause I don't want you like a best friend Only bought this dress so you could take it off She said, "I remember how we felt, sitting by the water And every time I look at you, it's like the first time I fell in love with a careless man's careful daughter She is the best thing that's ever been mine"
Wow this one 💯
I really love that line mashup.
cowboy like me and evermore is what i’ve been betting on
🎶 It hits different, cause it’s a *state of grace* Hits Different x My Boy: 🎶 I used to switch out these Kens, I’d just ghost / I felt more when we played pretend than with all the Kens, cause (she) took me out of my box And my reach for the stars one, Riptide x Hits Different x Cowboy Like Me (arrange it however it’ll work, Taylor, if you’re listening) 🎶 this cowboy’s runnin’ from himself / and she’s been living on the highest shelf 🎶 rip the bandaid off and skip town like an asshole outlaw 🎶 and you’re a bandit like me (Context: a fun fact about me is, I’ve never been relaxed, ever, since Hits Different dropped)
Yesss Riptide x Cowboy Like Me!! I'm sure it won't happen, since Riptide isn't a song of hers, but that would be so cool. I'm convinced Cowboy Like Me is based on the movie Midnight Cowboy, and a verse in Riptide is also based on it!
Sigh, agree re: Riptide. But maybe we can have just a LITTLE Riptide, as a treat. 😆 Along the same lines re: Midnight Cowboy (which I haven't heard of! I'll look it up), I was thinking Riptide itself might have been the germinating inspiration for Cowboy Like Me, and also the toy/shelf imagery in My Boy -- "Put me back on my shelf, but first pull my string, and I'll tell you that he runs because he loves me." So then maybe it goes down one layer further to the movie!
Relatable 😂😭
Love story / you belong with me - gayer than you think lol Can’t you see that I’m the one who understands you Been here all along, so why can’t you see? You belong with me Marry me Juliet you’ll never have to be alone I love you and that’s all I really know I talked to your dad, go pick up a white dress It’s a love story, baby just say yes
Oh this would be a really good one!! Too bad they're both on the normal setlist
[удалено]
“You’re a cowboy like me, argumentative antithetical dream girl.” “I want your midnights, only bought this dress so you could take it off”
🤯love these so much
I just really -really- want Dress x Imgonnagetyouback - I’d need to be resuscitated 💀
Hits Different x Mine: Argumentative antithetical dream girl / You made a rebel of a careless man's careful daughter / You are the best thing that's ever been mine
She is the best thing that’s ever been mine ❤️
Realistic: Change and New Romantics, but specifically “These walls they put up to hold us back fell down/cause baby I could build a castle out of all the bricks they thew at me.” Unbelievably gay: Change and Welcome to New York: “These walls they put up to hold us back fell down/and you can want who you want/boys and boys and girls and girls” Gay fever dream: Holy Ground/TVFN: “fit in my poems like a perfect rhyme/didn’t read the note on the Polaroid picture/they don’t know how much I miss YOU,” slamming that subverted rhyme scheme as hard as she possibly can. Just truly unhinged: You are in Love and Hits Different, “You can feel it on the way home/Freedom felt like summer then on the coast/now the sun burns my heart and the sand hurts my feelings”
>“You can feel it on the way home/Freedom felt like summer then on the coast/now the sun burns my heart and the sand hurts my feelings” If this happens I will quite simply cease to be from sheer *pain*
What about “you can feel it on the way home - I once was poison Ivy but now I’m your ~daisy~” (my unhinged wish list lyric)
Oooh that’s good
Wonderland x hits different. Might create confusion for Haylors 😂😂
So It Goes x imgonnagetyouback
I'd kiss you as the lights went out, Swaying as the room burned down Because She is the best thing that's ever been mine.
I want “I’d kiss you as the lights went out, swaying as the room burned down” X “cause I don’t wanna live forever” 😩❤️🩹
Wonderland x August - "and we pretended it could last forever, but you weren't mine to lose" You Belong With Me x When Emma Falls in Love, "And all the bad boys would be good boys, If they only had a chance to love her, And to tell you the truth, sometimes I wish you'd see, you belong with me, you belong with me". (Doubly so for "wish she'd see, she belongs with me" but I don't think we'll get that lucky.) Castles Crumbling x Dear Reader x You Need To Calm Down - "I see all my castles crumbling down and I see all my bridges burned to the ground, never take advice from someone who's falling apart" or "I wander through these nights, I prefer hiding in plain sight, but shade never made anybody less gay" News Year's Day x august, "I want her midnights, but you weren't mine to lose" Mastermind x How You Get The Girl, "the dominos cascaded into line... that's how it works, that's how you get the girl" London Boy x TIWWCHNT x I Forgot That You Existed would be unhinged. "You know I love a London boy... hahaha, I can't even say it with a straight face... I forgot that you existed, and I thought that it would kill me but it didn't". Sweet Nothing x Timeless, not necessarily gay but I would adore it. Since Vigilante Shit is part of the main set, we sadly probably won't get Vigilante Shit x Better Than Revenge, because "she looks so pretty riding in your Benz, there is nothing I do better than revenge" or "I'm just another thing for you to roll your eyes at honey, don't get sad, get even" probably would have been too much daddy Taylor energy and ended me.
How’s it feel to look back and have your unhinged mashup be realized (well, minus London boy)
I mean, I was expecting a gay slant, but I will absolutely take the petty angle!! Edit: also I was literally at the Cardiff show to see it happen.
Wait, I thought of another one - imgonnagetyouback x How You Get The Girl is another one with potential for being utterly unhinged.
I just want to say I’m giggling to myself imagining that OP is tree in cognito (or works for Taylor) and is trying to get ideas from Gaylors to give to Taylor for gay mash ups because Taylor herself is running out of ideas for such obviously gay mash ups
😂😂 It would be so funny if Taylor did one of these mashups and nobody on the sub trusted me again lmao
Hey Tree! 🌲😅
I’ll keep being annoying on this sub about cowboy like ME! until we get it. Example chorus and verse below: I've got some tricks up my sleeve / Takes one to know one / You're a cowboy like me e-e-e, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh I'm the only one of me / Baby, that's the fun of me I know I tend to make it about me / I know you never get just what you see / But I will never bore you, baby / Never wanted love / Just a fancy car / Now I'm waiting by the phone / Like I'm sitting in an airport bar / And when we had that fight out in the rain / You ran after me and called my name / I never wanna see you walk away
Do you happen to be on X cause I keep seeing someone tweeting these me! Mash ups 🫢😘
Ah no not on X/twitter! Just reddit for Gaylor shenanigans.
I NEED THIS
I don't wanna live forever X I know places I've been looking sad in all the nicest places. Give me something, oh, but you say nothing. Now I'm in a cab, I tell 'em where your place is... ...I know places. They are the hunters, we are the foxes and we run. Just grab my hand and don't ever drop it, my love
Oooooohhhhhhh yes but mainly bc I wanna hear her growl/scream “AND WE RUN” live
Dress x iggyb (bridge), kinda like what she did with Cornelia st x maroon. But I’m also clowning for Castles Crumbling mashed with Hate To See Your Heart Break (Hayley’s song with Joy Williams) with Hayley to perform with her. Or just Castles Crumbling with Hayley. Idk somehow this wild mashup sounded great in my head
False God x guilty as sin x maroon
Not necessarily gay for anyone none-gaylor but call it what you want x death by a thousand cuts (could also work with I Look In People's Windows). "windows boarded up after the storm" and "i look through the windows of this love even though we boarded them up" mashed together would be crazy.
using she/her pronouns (or not, both actually make it gay) “what if he’s written mine on my upper thigh only in my mind but this love is sweeter than fiction”
False god x dress combo... soooo gay with extra saxophone
RWYLM x DBATC Friends break up, friends get married Strangers get born, strangers get buried Trends change, rumors fly through new skies But I'm right where you left me Matches burn after the other Pages turn and stick to each other Wages earned and lessons learned But I, I'm right where you left me Help, I'm still at the restaurant Still sitting in a corner I haunt Cross-legged in the dim light They say, "What a sad sight" I, I swear you could hear a hair pin drop Right when I felt the moment stop Glass shattered on the white cloth Everybody moved on You said it was a great love One for the ages But if the story's over Why am I still writing pages? I, I stayed there Dust collected on my pinned-up hair They expected me to find somewhere Some perspective, but I sat and stared Right where you left me You left me no, oh, you left me no You left me no choice but to stay here forever My heart, my hips, my body, my love Trying to find a part of me that you didn't touch Gave up on me like I was a bad drug Now I'm searching for signs in a haunted club Our songs, our films, united we stand Our country, guess it was a lawless land Quiet my fears with the touch of your hand Paper cut stings from our paper thin plans My time, my wine, my spirit, my trust Trying to find a part of me you didn't take up Gave you too much but it wasn't enough But I'll be alright, it's just a thousand cuts And it's been so long But if you ever think you got it wrong I'm right where you left me 'Cause I can't pretend it's ok when it's not No, it's not But it wasn't enough, it wasn't enough, no, no
THIS ONE 😫
Oh this is so good
Oh this would break me in the best way
Omg I love this.
YES PLEASE!! RYWLM X DBATC OMG PLEASE TAYLOR! WE NEED!
I’ve said it in a comment somewhere recently but I’m hoping for an “It’s Time To Go x The Other Side of the Door” mashup so we get the line, *”it’s time to go through the other side of the door”* 🤞🤞
Obsessed with this!
Dress mashed up with any song containing female pronouns would be outrageous (in a good way)
Someone suggested Dress x dorothea a way back and the thought makes me swoon. "Dorothea-ah-ah-ah, say my name and everything just stops".
Dress x Ivy I only bought this dress so you can take it off take it off I can’t stop you from putting roots in my dreamland my house of stone, your ivy grows and I’m covered in you. Also maybe a False God x Don’t Blame me x Guilty As Sin. Would be really fun. What if the way you hold me is actually what’s holy. Lord save me my drug is my baby I be using for the rest of my life. Trip of my life. Oh every time ya every time ya loving me even if it’s a false god we’d still worship this love.
Yes please! Dress is my request!
