Taylor Swift – You Need To Calm Down

Taylor Swift expresses the honest feelings that women often find hard to say out loud—briskly and brilliantly—in the form of outstanding songs.

Having achieved massive commercial success at a young age, she’s also been subjected to a great deal of malicious criticism.

“You Need to Calm Down” is her way of gently admonishing people with different values to take it down a notch.

At the same time, the track offers an approach to issues like America’s polarization, and its music video—featuring many celebrities—lands a perfect punchline when Katy Perry, with whom Taylor was reported to have had a feud, appears at the end.

Through its euphoric melody and sound, the song teaches the importance of self-affirmation and understanding others, and it ultimately ties into themes of love and friendship.
