Every time Taylor Swift announces new audio it is mainly an worldwide holiday on social media, and the most the latest celebration experienced an unwitting star: John Mayer. Shortly after Swift verified she’d be releasing her new variation of Communicate Now above the summer, Mayer’s title became a trending subject. And just about every real Swiftie appreciates why. Some of the best identified songs from the 2010 album are not-so-subtly influenced by Swift’s brief connection with the crooner, so re-moving into the Speak Now era by natural means led to a ton of hilarious John Mayer memes.

Swift and Mayer dated for a few months at the close of 2009 and commencing of 2010, at the time that Swift was creating her 3rd studio album Speak Now. When the file was introduced in the fall of 2010, it was quickly evident that Swift’s troubled marriage and breakup with Mayer was a significant inspiration. While Swift does not usually flat-out verify which of her exes a song is about, the song title “Dear John” was an apparent giveaway. The tune about a poisonous marriage entire of head game titles and crimson flags continues to be one particular of Swift’s songs with the most blatant inspiration, even referencing the pair’s noteworthy age gap in the lyric, “Don’t you feel 19’s much too younger to be performed by your dark twisted game titles?” (Swift was 19 although courting 32-yr-old Mayer.)

Other biting tracks off the album are also extensively imagined to be encouraged by the troubled connection, together with “The Tale of Us” and the reward track “Superman.” With all the renewed awareness Talk Now is obtaining and will continue to get for the rest of 2023, Swifties experienced a ton of fun imagining how fearful Mayer ought to be about the re-launch.

At minimum Mayer is not fully by yourself. Joe Jonas was achieved with similar jokes when his earlier romantic relationship with Swift was drudged up all over again by her 2021 re-launch of Fearless, and Jake Gyllenhaal went by means of it when Swift released Red (Taylor’s Model) the future calendar year. Swifties have rallied around a joke that the a few guys have experienced to consider turns currently being the primary villain of the fandom.

Ideally Mayer does not have any huge strategies on July 7 when Discuss Now (Taylor’s Variation) drops, because it sounds like he’s not heading to be a really well-known dude on that working day.
