Today's Taylor Swift song is the meaning behind the song "Babe" she co wrote with Patrick Monahan. She wrote the song in 2012-2013 with him, but did not release it with the release of her album at the time "Red". Instead she saved it in a vault and let Sugarland use it for their album Bigger in 2018. It is a great song, I wonder how many more great songs she has saved up in her vault.
Who is this song about? A lot of people think the song is about Jake Gyllenhaal, because she had dated him the most recent and a lot of songs on Red are about him. And because of some of the lines in the song that relate to songs about him, "the last time" and "kitchen floor". After looking at the song however I do not think so. The reason she broke up with Jake was very clearly outlined in "The Moment I Knew". She broke up with him because he did not come to her party. There are only a few guys that cheated on her, one being Sam and the other Joe Jonas. I think she wrote this even earlier and fine tuned it with Patrick Monahan. It had been sitting in her vault even longer! Which one is is about. I would guess Joe Jonas.
Why?
Look at the lines.
"You said no one else", and "We're a wreck, you're the wreaking ball" and "Since you admitted it, I keep picturing/Her lips on your neck, I can't unsee it." Those are very clearly lines referencing that she was cheated on.
In the song she calls him "Babe" constantly. In "Forever and Always" a song about Joe Jonas she calls him "baby" throughout the song. In "Forever and Always" she says "I was there when you said forever and always". In the song Babe she says "Taking down the pictures and the plans we made".
Why did she release it now? She knew it was a good song and people would love to hear it. I would love to hear a whole album of unreleased songs honestly. Everything she touches is gold. This song is very poignant and illustrates the pain of losing someone she had plans with the rest of her life. The first stanza talks about him breaking the promise, the next her taking down pictures, the next one her acknowledging what happened, and the last one her finally letting go. "I'll never call you babe."
Taylor has been over Joe for years and years. I am glad she has recovered from that relationship. She know has Joe Alwyn and has been dating him almost two years. "When I find that person that is right for me. He'll be wonderful, and when I look at that person, I'm not even going to be able to remember the boy who broke up with me over the phone in 25 seconds". Good job Taylor!
