I'm no swiftie, but you are correct. I thought it would be "I hate Joe" and Matt Healy was a small afterthought, but woah!

Pure Jealousy

I think the "wife" in Fortnight is Taylor in her imagination. She wanted to be the wife....it didn't happen....now she wants to kill that part of herself. Am I delulu?

I can see that. Fortnight seems to me to be a bit of a fakeout, Taylor starting out with a 'story' song, a song where you can't really draw direct lines to her personal life, but it does introduce the important themes of the album: infidelity (both real and emotional), the pain of relationships (thwarted, realized, or dying), the phony facades and standards that oppress. I can believe she would imagine herself into the situation (and would want us to imagine her into it.) The song itself makes me think of the fiction of John Cheever, whose stories were set in picture-perfect upper-upper-middle class suburbia, filled with unhappy people whose desperate longings and infidelities didn't make them any happier. I don't have any idea if Taylor is a reader of Cheever, but she's very erudite, and I can believe she might be.
