"I feel like any time Taylor Swift releases a new album it&amp;#x27;s like the equivalent of the Bat Signal going up over Gotham City. In that scenario, all the bad guys run for cover. In Taylor&amp;#x27;s world, her ex-boyfriends scatter in fear! Why? A new album is a public nod to her exes that all their wrongdoings from breaking up over text (Joe Jonas we&amp;#x27;re looking at you) to making her cry (yes, that&amp;#x27;s you John Mayer) are about to be outed and immortalized forever in Taylor&amp;#x27;s raw, emotional and honest to a fault lyrics. Jake Gyllenhaal, you may want to lay low. Taylor&amp;#x27;s new album Red is coming out on October 22nd and it&amp;#x27;s gonna be a doozy. She took to a live web chat with her fans last night to talk about the album and premiere the first single. I kid you not, it&amp;#x27;s called &amp;quot;We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together.&amp;quot; Never ever getting back together, eh? Besides this song being extremely upbeat and catchy for a &amp;quot;Hit the Road, Jack&amp;quot; caliber break-up jam--it leaves a lot for us to ponder. Take a listen and then let&amp;#x27;s discuss . . . I mean, this leaves us with but one question. Who is Taylor talking about? We know that she is happily dating Conor Kennedy--he even just met her parents! Taylor allegedly already wrote about exes Taylor Lautner (&amp;quot;Back to December&amp;quot; and &amp;quot;Story of Us&amp;quot;) and John Mayer (&amp;quot;Dear John&amp;quot;) on her last album Speak Now. But since that album came out, Taylor dated Jake Gyllenhaal and was rumored to go on some dates with Cory Monteith before getting serious with Conor. So, here&amp;#x27;s where the plot thickens. Taylor told ABC News that &amp;quot;We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together&amp;quot; came about when she was in the studio and a friend of an ex (an ex that she will not name) came to the studio. Said friend had heard through the grapevine that Taylor and the ex were back together. This was not true. The friend left and Taylor started telling her songwriters Max Martin and Johan Shellback the story of this ex and how they were on again, off again for so long but now it was definitely over. And the song was born. My guess? John Mayer. I know that Taylor already wrote him the &amp;quot;I hate you, you broke my heart, never talk to me again&amp;quot; anthem in &amp;quot;Dear John&amp;quot;--but hear me out. John recently told Rolling Stone that he was really humiliated when &amp;quot;Dear John&amp;quot; came out and had no idea that he hurt Taylor so badly. I believe that only because John&amp;#x27;s often massive ego comes across like it&amp;#x27;s invincible to wrongdoing. I just wouldn&amp;#x27;t be shocked if he reached out to Taylor to try and make amends and then acted like she was overrating. Ugh--we&amp;#x27;ve all dated that guy, right? Or maybe it&amp;#x27;s Jake Gyllenhall? They did break up in December of 2010 and then were seen together on and off in early 2011. Maybe they were still seeing each other and GASP managed to keep it a secret from the paparazzi and rest of world? It wouldn&amp;#x27;t be totally implausible that Jake has friends in the music industry too! But, if you really want some answers and want to put your super sleuth skills to the test, then we&amp;#x27;ll just have to wait until Oct. 22nd when we can get our hands on the liner notes for Red. If you recall, Taylor hid messages all over the Speak Now notes. Capitol letters strategically placed in the lyrics to &amp;quot;Dear John&amp;quot; even spelled out &amp;quot;LOVED YOU FROM THE VERY FIRST DAY.&amp;quot; Taylor promised during her chat last night that she&amp;#x27;s planting messages again despite knowing how slick her fans are when it comes to decoding them. &amp;amp;#8220;It&amp;amp;#8217;s pretty difficult to come up with them because I know that you guys are going to figure it out. I&amp;amp;#8217;m really excited about the fact that you guys care about lyrics. Hiding little codes in lyrics is kind of a way of encouraging that,&amp;quot; she said. If you have some extra time today, I highly recommend watching all of Taylor&amp;#x27;s revealing chat. Even the title Red has a deeper meaning about her relationships and matters of the heart. Taylor said, &amp;quot;All the different emotions that are written about on this album are all pretty much about the kind of tumultuous, crazy, insane, intense, semi-toxic relationships that I&amp;amp;#8217;ve experienced in the last two years. All those emotions &amp;amp;#8212; spanning from intense love, intense frustration, jealousy, confusion, all of that &amp;amp;#8212; in my mind, all those emotions are red. You know, there&amp;amp;#8217;s nothing in between. There&amp;amp;#8217;s nothing beige about any of those feelings.&amp;amp;#8221; Okay, your turn to tell me--who do you think &amp;quot;We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together&amp;quot; is about?
