161. Lyrical Analysis of "Fade" by Jessica Simpson

Wouldn't have it any other way! Today, one of my first ever guests on this podcast Kat (@kattkelly on TikTok) returns to discuss the new polarizing and divatastic Taylor Swift album!!! If you've been stressed out by the craziness this week, get ready for some Taypositivity as we are both fans of the album. First we talk about our theatre experience at the listening party event and The Fate of Ophelia music video; then we get into our expectations prior to listening and general thoughts, then we go track-by-track discussing our feelings on each song.PATREON Subscribers heard this episode completely ad-free!

Listen, I really wanted to do the whole rest of the absolutely phenomenal EP Nashville Canyon: Part 2 by our very own Jessica Simpson this week, but Fade is so fantastic that it deserves its VERY OWN episode!!! In this song, Jessica once again processes her brutal heartbreak through the art of the past... this time, it's the Great Gatsby. It's time for English class, lets dive in!!PATREON Subscribers heard this episode completely ad-free!

On September 5th, Jessica Simpson released her second EP this year, Nashville Canyon: Part 2, marking the continuation of her triumphant return to the music industry. I have been so in awe of what she's done on this album, so I thought it was high time to do a lyrical analysis. This episode covers the first two songs, Your Apology and Hopeless Romance.
