Here are 3 things about these songs that all Swifties should know about: “Dear John” was written about John Mayer, whom Taylor dated for 2 months before their breakup. “Back To December” is a tragic song about Taylor feeling sorrowful that she made some pretty bad mistakes when dating Taylor Lautner, and when I first heard it a few years ago, I can only remember crying so hard during the bridge because it’s so sad. “When Emma Falls In Love” is about none other than the star of the hit Disney movie “Cruella”, Emma Stone (Stone is now married to Dave McCary and has a daughter named Louise). My top 5 favorite songs from this album are “I Can See You”, “Enchanted”, “Foolish One”, “Timeless”, and “Back To December”. I would recommend this to all the people who have not yet listened to it.
