the phenomenon
Especially with the latest release it became clear that Taylor Swift is more than just her music. Her entire (love) life has been processed in her songs and the latest pieces provide new clues as to how all the numbers (and individual episodes in her life) are actually connected. Taylor Swift has created a huge puzzle rally around her work and nothing is more exciting for die-hard fans than looking for the next clues. If you “only” listen to their music and don’t get involved with the person, the phenomenon, Taylor Swift, you’ll probably find the heartbreak pop really boring. But if you really get involved in the world of the Swifties, in the lyrics, in the references, in the quirky way of cat friend Swift, who is so rich that you can hardly imagine it, you will understand why she is so successful with her work.
That’s exactly why Vienna concert aunt Andrea (same name as Swift’s mother), who has door number 13, is going to a total of 3 concerts in May and August (May = 5, August = 8, makes 13) together with her boyfriend. Anyone who wants to venture into this crazy world: watch the official fan resale, it’s worth it! Because: You can’t get a better “work show” from the biggest pop star in the world and a better price-performance ratio (over 3 hours of show for under 200 euros), not even in an overpriced musical performance. So: look forward to the follow-up reports!
