Fans trend 'Taylor Swift Salt Air' as August begins
Since Taylor Swift released 'Folklore' in 2020, fans have embraced August with the song of the same name. The track's wistful nostalgia resonated instantly with fans as they praised the 35-year-old's evocative lyrics: 'Salt air, and the rust on your door / I never needed anything more / Whispers of, 'Are you sure?' 'Never have I ever before.''
Every year, Swifties commemorate the beginning of August using the song or the lyrics in their social media posts. While gushing over the track's emotional appeal, a fan explained how everyone collectively fell in love with the sentimental lyrics.
The fan posted on Reddit, 'It's ('August') just SO transcendental…lyrically, musically, vocally, production-wise… all of it. My favorite of the love triangle songs.' The user noted that 'the beautiful vocals over the ethereal instrumentals' make the song all the more enchanting.
For the unversed, the 'Cruel Summer' singer wrote her first pandemic album, 'Folklore,' from a fictional point of view. Listeners have identified three main characters in the project. So, various songs of the album depict the characters' perspectives and feelings.
In 'August,' Swift features a narrator who was mesmerized by her summer fling, knowing very well that the romance might not have a happily ever after. Fans opine that the song's portrayal of 'relatable' pain made it resonate with millions of listeners.
Another fan further stated that the track 'feels like the month of August, the fun of summer slipping away, blissful and temporary relationships, and the threat of real life around the corner.'
In other news, August for Taylor Swift fans could be more than just a nostalgic month in 2025. Many Swifties are convinced that an announcement regarding TS 12, which will be the pop star's 12th studio album, will be dropping soon.
