State of Grace (Red)

Hidden Message: I Love You Doesn't Count After Goodbye

Although both Mr. Gyllenhaal and Mr. Tebow are fire signs with blue eyes, this song points strongly to Jake. It opens with what seems to be a description of New York City, where their romance really flourished. Her sound is much older and mature - perhaps due to the fact that her boyfriend had a decade on her and preferred very cool "indie records." Still, we cannot help but note her usage of terms "grace" and "faith" in relationship to Tim's well-known reputation. The song title might also be linked to Holy Ground, which we believe may be about Jake.

Red (Red)


Due to Jake Gyllenhaal's enormous presence on the album - both predicted and anticipated - it seems appropriate that the title track would reflect their relationship. The colors in the song parallel the public descriptions of her lonely Christmas back in 2010.

Treacherous (Red)

Hidden Message: Won't Stop Till It's Over

There aren't many specific clues in this one so hopefully the hidden message reveals a bit more. From the sound of it (and the apparent lack of Jake Gyllenhaal falling-in-love songs throughout the rest of the album), we're assuming that Treacherous tells the story of their autumn together.

All Too Well (Red)

Hidden Message: Maple Lattes

More songs like this will put us out of business. Taylor steps out of her usual mystery and provides fans with a play-by-play of the relationship she remembers "all too well." From the first line, she sets an autumn scene (assumedly Thanksgiving) where she leaves her scarf at sister Maggie Gyllenhaal's home. Next we move on to their apple picking date, where they apparently got "lost upstate." Possibly we enter Momma Gyllenhaal's place next, where Taylor learns of his successful T-ball career. After the break-up, he calls again where we hope she sang We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together.

I Almost Do (Red)

Hidden Message: Wrote This Instead of Calling

The off-and-on tone to this one screams Jake Gyllenhaal. It parallels We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together...and just happens to come right before it. Hmm.

We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together (Red)

Hidden Message: When I Stopped Caring What You Thought

We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together (aka WANEGBT) was the highly anticipated first single off Swift’s fourth album Red. Swift explained the inspiration behind the writing session, “[My friend] starts talking about how he’s heard [my ex and I] were getting back together and that was not the case. When he leaves, Max and Johan are like, ‘So what’s the story behind that?’ And so I start telling them the story of ‘break up, get back together, break up, get back together,’ just, ugh, the worst.” song is most likely about ex-boyfriend Jake Gyllenhaal for several reasons, most notably when Swift yelled out "Jake it's your turn" after performing the tune at the I Heart Radio Music Festival in September (watch the video here). Swift's male co-star in the ‘We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together’ music video also looks highly reminiscent of the actor and he wears a puffy jacket much like Gyllenhaal's own in a highly publicized photo of the couple. Additionally, in a commercial for the MTV Video Music Awards Kevin Hart shows Swift a photo of her walking with Gyllenhaal with Hart’s face pasted on the actor’s body.

The Last Time (Red)

Hidden Message: LA On Your Break

Taylor teams up with her favorite band Snow Patrol in this one. Not to be redundant, but it sounds like Jake Gyllenhaal as well! The Last Time seems to be a precursor to We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together and I Almost Do.

Holy Ground (Red)

Hidden Message: When You Came To The Show In SD

Might this be the sequel to State of Grace? If so, Jake Gyllenhaal strikes again! It sounds like it was written after their first break-up seeing that it lacks the "calls me up again last night" element.

Jake Gyllenhaal


November 2010 – December 2010 (We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together, State of Grace)

The high profile pair was photographed on several romantic getaways and even spent Thanksgiving together. Jake allegedly ended the relationship over text message.
