It's midnight and things are getting magical at Taylor's place: Clouds roll in, lavender sprouts from the floor, and she loses herself amidst the changing scene and the billowing haze.
Taylor Swift's Midnights era starts appropriately enough with a parody of classic horror tropes, but then gets increasingly complex, with setups ranging from an elucidating confrontation with another version of herself, a depiction of the social awkwardness that comes from being so "big," and a mid-video funeral segment.
Phoebes unite in "Savior Complex" —Phoebe Bridgers provides the soundtrack, and co-stars with Paul Mescal of the Hulu show Normal People, with a cute dog that seems very well trained, while Fleabag creator/star Phoebe Waller-Bridge directsa this short story of a video,
With his debut album ‘Yesterday’s Gone’ nominated for tonight prestigious Mercury prize, Loyle Carner releases the new video for ‘Sun of Jean’ with Joao Retorta back at the helm.
