(Uncensored & Ad-Free Video) TS12 Theories: Lover Act II? Country Return? Tayvis Era?

In this episode of Phone a Snake, we’re diving headfirst into the chaos of TS12. Is Taylor Swift about to unleash Lover Act II? Return to her country roots? Drop a glitter-soaked Travis Kelce concept album? Or burn it all down and start from scratch? We asked you, our beloved snakes, for your boldest theories, hopes, and predictions — and you delivered.

1999 was the best year for music.. I want to hear Taylor's version of Madonna's Ray of Light... I mean Addison just did it!

VK

AUSTRALIA MENTIONED! My sister is an events planner, I can she if she wants to help out getting the tour going?

Blake

Madeline I couldn’t agree more that she needs to stay away from the football metaphors. No more football! No more football!

OBSESSED with a Cranberries, Mazzy Star dreamy live instrument love soundscape. Take me there.

Batoul Mourad

I haven’t even started watching this yet and I’ve been speculating she’s doing country for TS12 + tour debut together 🤡

Kristina Frost

Just pressed play, is the Lizard a twin peaks fan?! Twin Peaks episode of the lizard review WHEN

Lia Russo

These gaylors are going to fall apart if she ever gets engaged lmao

Sarah Freeman

I was ok with not getting rep tv but I’m genuinely sad at the idea of not getting an eras tour doc lol or more behind the scenes. My fave Taylor content (besides the music of course) is behind the scenes/making of content!!

Ashley

My problem with the Antonoff production is the lack of a drum track. It’s always a modge podge of drum “sounds.” I love Midnights/TTPD as much as the next guy, but must we always have a cacophony of toms waaaaay in the background every time?

LH

Is the bestie phone a snake coming?

I’m a bit surprised to hear it said that Taylor doesn’t follow a bit of what her current partner’s music taste is. Obviously it’s not all the time- but I think it’s sprinkled through. Harry styles vibe seems to def be in that era songs, Taylor talks about how Joe loves Bon Iver in long pond and his moody vibe seems to def be in a few songs. Matty songs are often chaotic drama like him. So following that Travis loves 1989 and he’s a blank space stan- I totally agree we’ll get songs with that vibe. Take your “purse” analogy- if you have a new purse that you love, you’re outfits, and overall style may lean a little bit more to match the purse.

From my intel and take it with a grain of salt, there is a tour coming in 2026. So, yeah, it would make sense that she would have plenty of time during football season and hopefully right after TS 12 is released in September, because the tour wouldn’t be starting until, again hopefully, spring of 2026.

i could see her present TS12, her movie , couple festivals dates, half time show.. all between fall25 and 2026, my guess is that she's already have in mind ts13 too (i mean 13 you know, in what world she's not making the perfect 13th album?). I think she could plan a world tour in 2027, tour 12 and 13 together, travis will be done with football, the world cup is in america next year all stadiums will be book and buzy. i think this year she's been relaxing in a taylor way of relaxing haha still doing stuff but more chill than fans think, she said last year "i forgot what it's like to have hobbies", to write she has to live too, and she takes a year at least to plan and rehearse a tour. just my onion what do you guys think?

CamilleC

What’s wrong with people asking “which Wonderland, the album or the song?” for the rest of eternity. What’s wrong with a little whimsy? I wanna know!

Dana Hinton

Nahhhhh I think so high school is deeply self aware. There's no way "you know how to ball, I know Aristotle" isn't tongue in cheek at SOME level.

Mari Miranda

Re: 1989 merch She wore the 1989 new line button down shirt when she was at lunch with Travis recently

Sara Macc

She’s never gonna do the Super Bowl I think

rachel☁️

Never fear, this is Trav’s last year in the NFL. Last year of his contract, and then he’s onto whatever his next chapter entails.

Ally ❤️

Oh please YESSSSSSS FOR THE CRANBERRIES-ESQUE ALBUM!

Ally ❤️

I think that Taylor has mostly made songs that “sounded like the man’s taste” has been when she was trolling: Dear John, The Tortured Poet’s Department. In the service of Tearing down the banners and saying: I can do it better than you, Babe.

Ally ❤️

They trolled me too. It’s funny to me.

Dana Hinton

Besties!!! I am dying to purchase a hoodie with the London/Dublin Your graphics!!!! It’s adorable 🥰

Ally ❤️

Tbh if her relationship is as happy/stable as it appears to be, I don’t expect a ton of “I love you” songs. Maybe one so she can kick lover off any future set lists. Most of her Joe love songs were about the pining/anxiety of it all. There’s not much interesting to sing about stability. Thematically I’m expecting more about her return to HBIC status: BDILH, Blank Space, I Know Places, Clara Bow, etc.

Elle Kaye

And roses! 😂

Tony

I agree that the production could have a So High School element with the guitar. Liz Phair meets Hilary Duff Metamorphosis vibes?

Tony

I have absolutely no idea what to expect for TS12, but I do know that I love and am jealous of Madeline's shirt!! My favorite show of all time.

C. Johnson

Zach I distinctly remember you saying that false god flopped! Also I said “I can take the ‘I’m so happy Travy made it to the big game’ if it sounds like guilty as sin”, I think that’s the part you missed. This was the first time I called a podcast, so I was kind of nervous lol, sorry if it wasn’t super clear

Ella

Y’all are the best, love you both 🫶

Shannon

They really just get on the mic and say anything 😂

Carey

Dress is the horniest song?? Guilty as sin hello???? 😂

Shantini Vyas

At this point I retire from making Taylor predictions. I have no idea what she’s ever going to do ever.

Carey

Hii, I was inspired by this video and made a TS12 Tracklist concept!! Dagger to my Eyes Another Life Gentleman The Springs What Would I Do? Like No Other Man Would Do I Almost Looked at You Baby Oh My The Greatest of Them All There’s No Way I Couldn’t Do “Hey!” (Don’t Leave) Running Home elements of: But Daddy I Love Him, What Was That, Fresh out the Slammer, Back To December Babe, Better Man

chris

All I want for TS12 is some electric guitar — pop, rock, country, I don’t care. I just think her voice sounds best with that instrument. Her TEU performance felt like such a return to form that I ~loved~

Elle Kaye

Also, we can't forget that Universal Music leaked that Taylor Swift allegedly was working with Erik Arvinder - a swedish conductor and producer - since the beggining of this year. And the post that Universal Music made was erase sometime later.

Enzo Reis

I would like another country album. I think Taylor’s voice and songwriting style is best suited for country music.

Charlie

Madeline was so right! Swifties came with nonsense albums ideas like: Karma, Fire, Seashore, Ethereal, an album titled Alison, or the worst of them all 13 Memories. 😅😅

Enzo Reis

Thank you for mentioning Gaslighter!! I think it’s such an amazing album that really shows Jack Antonoff’s versatility.

Indy Behr

PROMISE TO ME! TS12 being a sucessor of Confessions On A Dance Floor and TS13 being her Ray Of Light, is my delusional dream. But she never would feed me like this. 😞

Enzo Reis

My predictions for TS12: • Note: These are just predictions; I'm having fun raving about these things. lol.😅 • Sound: Country Pop (Debut meets Lover). - In a world where we could truly dream, TS12 would be the successor to Confessions On A Dance Floor (in terms of sound). • Color: Mainly orange 🧡 with shades of lilac 💜 and some small touches of pink. Why? Recently, the latest photos and outfits give clues. Example: the orange addition to the Lover set bodysuit at The Eras; detail: the bodysuit contains shades of orange, lilac, and a little pink. The photo of her in the studio with Jack, where she's wearing an orange sweatshirt against an orange background, and those YouTube reels where she's wearing a white tank top and a lilac skirt. And the main fact The Eras tour book and she says "see you in next era" with the orange//lillac background. I think TS12 will have two colors, one to complete the palette, since orange is the last color missing and because, as you mentioned, since 2021, we've started to look at Taylor's albums as colors. And it would be cool, starting with TS12, to have albums with two predominant colors because we can explore contrasts and undertones, which reinforces the complexity of the albums and the diversity of sound, aesthetics, and color within the same album. • Themes: falling in love with Travis, finding personal happiness after the turmoil of dealing with two breakups + the (positive) chaos of The Eras Tour, Taylor's wave of negativity in 2024, the recent breakup of her friendship with Blake, the happiness of having recovered the masters (perhaps), and who knows, the lawsuit she filed against Kayne for stalking. • Release: Since your sources pointed to a possibility of her moving in September, I think the final album release could be in October, with the announcement in September. I honestly, would prefer the date release in October of 2026, with the annoucentment in August or September of 2026, but I'm ready for it 😎regardless. Sorry guys for the ranting, can't wait to come back her when TS12 is announced, and see how much I was wrong, as always. 😅

Enzo Reis

I dunno guys, remember when Joe wrote all those sad songs and then…I do think she, like anyone, is influenced by those closest to her.

LH

cruel summer is out of the woods with eyeliner, a blowout and cvnty red bottoms

Findley Kudick

Also, The Cranberries kinda inspired song was done before. "Mirrorball" has that dreamy elements of Linger or Dreams by The Cranberries.

Enzo Reis

I think she has a lot more tricks up her sleeve than I love Travis. I think through being with Travis, she has experienced the ugly misogyny of football fans, the nasty AI incident, the emotional impact of the Brazil and Vienna incidents, also the start of alleged unraveling of Blake Lively friendship.

Shannon

We love you diva! Your voicemail made my morning

Eva Warwick

Jaisam Nemer

Mikee Dayrit

connor

i would like a saxophone

connor

I'm from Australia!!! please come here!!! ❤️🇦🇺

Kayla Pickles

Also does anyone remember the rumor from awhile ago about her already booking dates for 2026

Morgan

I hateee the way everything is sounding country right now, Taylor please noooo

ducky

The 1989 merch she was wearing was I think from a newer drop but it was a white button down with seagulls on the back. The pic of her wearing it is from the side and kind of blurry so whether or not she was actually wearing it is your own journey lol.

Morgan

When the second caller said Taylor is going to “friend zone” Travis, I also immediately thought *gaylor alert.* I can’t think of any way to interpret what they said that doesn’t reek of that odd tendency to dismiss any potential seriousness to her current relationship.

Roh

She’s not gonna cater to vipers in empath clothes or Tayvis mania— she has too much discipline and a clear vision. Would be fairytale ending if Taylor in halftime + Travis win 🏈🏆🥳— but NFL has a toxic faction actively hostile to her especially at the finals; we’ll still be under the right wing shadow next February … lay low to avoid conflict, or confront it? Will there be enough Swifties in the stadium to back her up 🤔💭

Terry B

Synth pop ok if it’s Cruel Summer…I miss organic guitar 🎸folk rock Cran🫐🇮🇪🙂‍↕️ hope T12’ll ease off tortured lyrics “old habits die screaming” 😢❤️‍🩹 Whichever way, Blank Space / Clara Bows I’m a career-stan 🙂‍↕️ I hope fans follow her as an icon rather than para-social bachelorette we don’t know in person, though music is a big part of her. High school prom🫅🏼was the vengeful closure she needed. Lover is a nice ballad but anything sweeter would become ME HEEHEE 🤣

Terry B

but i think the promo for it could be neat, she could start addressing the fans as guests to a wedding (not saying it has anything to do with that) but like “dearly beloved, we are gathered” and then each song could focus on an aspect of her life she has found more at peace with post eras in general, it will be a peaceful album MAYBE idk i know her life is anything but peaceful but that’s just my theory

Kate!!!

okay last tin hat theory, i think ts12 will be called “dearly beloved” and she will do a sort of stationary theming with that lilac and white sort of vibe and i have nothing but the new letterhead, nail polish, and vibes that im going off of to found this idea

Kate!!!

I would love for Taylor next tour if she'd do something like Renaissance tour. Mainly new album with interpolation and reworks of all songs. I hope she's gonna tour, in many cities in Europe she promised she'll come back.

Gosia

Love the new pfp of the patreon!

Zoe Cane

I think the book and buying the masters is the end of the the Eras Era. I don't need a TS12 right now, but I need a song, a hit. I need Taylor on the radio!

Gosia

also, the audio on the past 2 or 3 ad free videos has been SO good, it was never an issue, but i usually had to turn volume on my apple air play tv super high and now it’s easy haahah

Kate!!!

Madeline the makeup and the twin peaks shirt is channeling fall and I’m obsessed 🖤🧡

Kat 🤍🌿

YAS I AM GOD’S FAVORITE RIGHT WHEN I ACTUALLY STEP ON TREADMILL YUP EXACTLY THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR UPLOADING

Kate!!!
