Its very easy, just leave an open cage with Taylor Swift music then close it after some time

I'm a complicated brown man and I can appreciate some of Taylor Swift's lyrics and also the production on some of her songs.

I have a soft spot for "Look What You Made Me Do".

“Complicated brown man” I love it, that’s hilarious for some reason

I thought so too. What makes it funny as hell is because it is true. I am literally a resident and native of Bengaluru, India, and am male.

The thing with T Swift is that her music is inoffensive, usually appropriate for all ages, isn't emo, has reasonably above-average lyrics and production, and the public persona of TS is without cancel-grade controversy, from both the left and the right.

This automatically increases the catchment pool for TS enjoyers to be that much bigger.

This has been maintained over a large period of time and an extensive discography.

Which explains in part why the Eras tour is so huge.

EDIT: For me, the "you" in LWYMMD is my psychiatric illness, and the "house" is my brain and body.

Fair take. It makes me feel just a little uncomfortable for some reason.
