Taylor Swift Unveils "Look What You Made Me Do" Music Video
Taylor Swift unveiled the music video for her new single,"Look What You Made Me Do" at last night's MTV VMAs.Starting out in a graveyard zooming in on Swift's grave, a zombie Taylor (reminiscent of Michael Jackson's "Thriller") crawls out, soon flashing to a very much alive Swift in a bathtub full of diamonds -- and that's only the beginning. The rest of the video sees Swift in a variety of settings, from a throne of slithering snakes to a car crash, with perhaps the most alarming coming toward the end: a pile of her old personas.
Just as she indicates with the line "I'm sorry, the old Taylor can't come to the phone right now/ Why? Oh, because she's dead" in "Look What You Made Me Do," Swift literally sits atop a bunch of old Taylors, like the nerdy girl from her "You Belong With Me" video and her Red Tour ringmaster getup. Holding true to her shout-out to the haters in the song, Swift took things one step further once the song was over.
"What's with that bitch?," "You are so fake," "There she goes playing victim again" -- all things the old Taylors tell the new one in the end, solidifying the bold message she's sending with her latest single. And to top it all off, one more (very familiar) shout-out to a particular hater: "I would very much like to be excluded from this narrative."
Taylor Swift Releases New Single "Look What You Made Me Do"
After three teasers, an album cover reveal and countless snake emojis, the wait is finally over: Taylor Swift has officially dropped her new single, "Look What You Made Me Do."As promised, the singer released her fresh tune promptly at midnight Friday on iTunes (Aug. 25). Unlike previous Swift singles, "Look What You Made Me Do" is fairly dark, both sonically and lyrically. Foreboding synths, eerie piano chords and a skittering beat rub up against old-timey sounds as Swift sings about karma, people who "laugh when they lie" and a list of names that she keeps.
"The world moves on another day, another drama-drama, but not for me, not for me, all I think about is karma," she says in a half-rapped tone, reminiscent of Fergie, at one point. "Maybe I got mine but you'll all get yours."

Surprisingly, the first thing that came to mind was that my favorite country artist is Tim McGraw."
