We're in the thick of the evermore woods now with track 9, "Coney Island." (But first, we do a slight detour back to "Dorothea"). This song is heavy on the "wonder" motif that's found throughout Taylor Swift's discography, and the themes of regret and lost youth are connected to other heartbreaking songs in her discography, including "How Did It End," "Peter," and "Chloe or Sam or Sophia or Marcus."

This song, which is about the dissolution of a relationship (or relationships?) also touches on many other songs in her discography, from "All Too Well" to "Dear John," and Exquisite and Hannah are devastatingly delighted to unpack them with you.
