Buck and Eddie keep it 100 on the land, the sea, and the sky!

This week Han, Cil, and Rachel dive into Taylor Swift’s latest album and dig into the lyrics of each song to explain why they’re all about Buddie, actually (romantic).

Join us on our journey through the album as we get pulled into the fire and take a look at how:

  1. Buck saves Eddie’s heart from the fate of Ophelia
  2. Buck would cry his eyes violet if Eddie ever left him
  3. Opalite is THE Buddie song of all time
  4. Eddie father figures his own parents
  5. Eldest Daughter is Eddie’s love letter to Buck
  6. Buddie need to ruin the friendship
  7. Actually Romantic is Eddie talking to Tommy
  8. Buck’s Wi$h LiSt is right in front of him
  9. Buck and Eddie will both be insufferable once they’re together
  10. The 118 are a cancelled family who sticks together
  11. Eddie can call Buck “Evan” if he wants
  12. Buck embodies the title track perfectly

Now you know the life of a Buddie-girl, babe (and we wouldn’t have it any other way)!
