delulu is normal

One of my favourite songs off of folklore is August, but, see, I’m also a directioner and there‘s a particular verse in the song that to me seem to parallel One Direction’s song, Summer Love.

August

Summer Love

Both songs seem to reminisce on a relationship that took place over the summer, while person is speculating from sometime in the future. In Summer Love, the boy band specifically narrows this down to September, while Taylor instead reflects solely on August. Later, the title of the One Direction song is directly dropped in the verse.

Other lyrical parallels such as the uncertainty of communication between both parties (“To live for the hope of it all/Cancel plans just in case you’d call” vs. “Don’t promise that you’ll call”), and them looking back into their past (“But I can see us lost in the memory” vs. “Push a button and rewind” are also notable.

If you find something else, feel free to tell me. I just thought this was significant, because folklore was also released on the tenth anniversary of One Direction.

Just Haylor things, just because.
