Mary's Song (Oh My My My)

Best gets vulnerable about the gap between the fairy tale she imagined at 17 and the reality of being 33 and single—while Adam argues that "Mary's Song" is actually better because Taylor wasn't writing from her own limited teenage perspective. They trace the anaphora, the 2 AM motifs, and the eerie 87/89 numerology that Swifties now connect to Travis Kelce. Is it romantic prophecy or just a really well-crafted narrative device?
