I relate more and more to Taylor the fan. It might be the part of her I identify with most. I identify as a romantic, as a weeper, as a believer in true love, all that stupid old shit like letters and sodas, as someone who hears the music in slamming screen doors and recognizes it as her life story. But damn, I really feel the kinship as a music devotee, someone who listens to everything, but always listens for herself in it.
See the slamming screen doors in Bruce Springsteen's "Thunder Road" and in Joni Mitchell's "Big Yellow Taxi"
