"Happy 23rd birthday to the one and only Taylor Swift! In honor of that awkward transitional age, our lady Tay-Tay shows off a grittier side in the video for &amp;quot;I Knew You Were Trouble.&amp;quot; Makes sense: the video&amp;#x27;s rough edges compliment the song, whose wobbly dub-pop sound is previously uncharted territory for her. It&amp;#x27;s all quite epic. Click to see the video here! Now, let&amp;#x27;s get into it, shall we? Of note: 1. Tay got on the ombre hair trend train (albeit a bit late), but the rouged tips of her dirty-blonde chopped bob look cute for her, no? 2. The opening: an oddly poetic voiceover (&amp;quot;It&amp;#x27;s like a kaleidoscope of memories--it all comes back but he never does.&amp;quot;) coupled with a cinematic montage of dramatic live-hard-fast-and-free moments between her and a lover seriously recall Lana Del Rey&amp;#x27;s 10-minute epic, &amp;quot;Ride.&amp;quot; Seriously. 3. Dude in question kinda looks like... well, let&amp;#x27;s not go there. 4. Now they&amp;#x27;re making out in a seedy motel! Get it girl! 5. Also, there&amp;#x27;s a mosh pit. 6. The song alludes to a case of the other woman. Lyric: &amp;quot;And the saddest fear comes creepin&amp;#x27; in/That you never loved me, or her, or anyone.&amp;quot; I don&amp;#x27;t exactly see what Taylor&amp;#x27;s so upset about here, besides the fact that her beau seems to constantly get in fights. And they make out a lot. Am I missing something? 7. Oh! Wait! Here it is. At this awesome semi-druggy rave scene, amid the flashing strobes and flickering bonfires Tay spots her boo totally snogging this other chick with face-paint. So rude, obviously. :( Also: the look on her face throughout is actually Oscar-worthy. 8. Like the classy lady she is, she did not go up and slap the two of them--and good for her; I would&amp;#x27;ve! 9. This brilliant closing line: &amp;quot;I don&amp;#x27;t know if you know who you are, until you lose who you are.&amp;quot; What do y&amp;#x27;all think of Taylor Swift&amp;#x27;s new video? Um, discuss! "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
