Taylor Swift is on an epic roll, dropping the second remix of her Evermore single “Willow” early Tuesday morning (Dec. 15). The latest is a “lonely witch” version that strips back the already spare song from the singer’s surprise album.

“Witches be like ‘Sometimes I just want to listen to music while pining away/sulking/staring out a window,” she wrote along with an appropriately pensive shot of her staring into the distance “It’s me. I’m witches. Never fear, the ‘willow lonely witch remix’ is here.”

The spare take on the song is mostly voice and piano with stray gentry-strummed acoustic guitar. The new version comes just two days after Swift dropped the “dancing witch” version of the single remixed by Elvira to celebrate her 31st birthday.

It wouldn't be a Taylor Swift album release without an Easter egg hunt.

Luckily, after taking some time off in that regard with Folklore's lone music video for "Cardigan," which didn't really feature many knots to untangle, Swift is back to form with "Willow." The new music video, which comes by way of her surprise ninth studio album Evermore that released Thursday night, is chock-full of references to Swift's older music, in particular Evermore's sister album, Folklore.

Here, EW breaks down all the little Easter eggs, throwbacks, and familiar faces you might have missed, complete with timestamps for easy reference.

A familiar costar

Swift joined fans on YouTube before the debut of the video to answer some questions. It was there that she revealed that "you've seen my co-star in this video somewhere before." Turns out, Taeok Lee, who plays the singer's love interest in the vid, was a backup dancer for Swift on her Red tour back in 2013. After the video debuted, Lee thanked the pop star on Instagram. "Surprise guys! Thanks Tay for bringing me back again for this project. It means a lot to me & it was great working together again," he wrote.

"Cardigan" and "Exile," :00

The video starts with an easy one: It picks up exactly where the "Cardigan" music vid left off, with Swift soaking wet, sitting at a piano, wearing a — you guessed it! — cardigan. The set appears to be the same in both videos, but this time, Swift is holding a glowing, golden thread. Since the opening shot is basically the exact same between the two videos, one could argue that it's also a reference to Folklore's "Exile," which features the lyrics "I think I've seen this film before, and I didn't like the ending."

"Invisible String," :13

This brings us to the next most obvious reference, which is the gold string that appears throughout "Willow." On the Folklore track "Invisible String," Swift croons about an invisible string that all along tied her to her lover, which more or less seems to be used as a motif throughout this video, as it goes from the past to the present of a young couple's love with the thread tying all of the moments together. In the aforementioned track, the singer even refers to the string as "one single thread of gold tied me to you," which seems like a pretty clear reference here.

"Seven," 1:00

Folklore's "Seven" sees Swift pondering an old friendship from her childhood, and here, a young version of the lovers as children pops up around the one-minute mark.

"Mirrorball" and "Love Story," 1:26

After leaving the childhood segment, Swift walks through the tent only to step into a glass box on a stage, ready to perform for a crowd. The romantic off-white dress and headpiece she's wearing harken back to her "Love Story" music video, which is very fitting considering she just released the first look at the newly recorded version of that Fearless song. Also during the YouTube chat with fans, Swift revealed that one scene in the "Willow" video "represents how I feel about fame." Folklore track "Mirrorball" is pretty much a treatise on that subject, with Swift comparing herself to a disco ball spinning alone for everyone to ogle at, which feels like how she's being presented in this scene.

". Ready For It?," 2:08

After the glass cage incident, Swift and a group of people head out into the woods, donning capes. The look and feel of the cape and the way the camera follows Swift's face is a dead ringer for the ". Ready For It?" music video from the Reputation era. Watch the beginning of that video here for reference.

"Mad Woman" and "I Did Something Bad," 2:19

Turns out there's some witchy stuff going on in those woods, and Swift has made several references to witches in recent years. On Reputation's "I Did Something Bad," the bridge features the lyrics, "They're burning all the witches even if you aren't one." And more recently on Folklore, the pop star sings on "Mad Woman" that "women like hunting witches, too." Here, she lets that witchy flag fly high.

"Daylight," 3:36

Ah, finally a Lover reference! Swift seems to end things here on a Lover-approved high note with a reference to the final track on that album, "Daylight." In "Willow," after the cloaks and witches scene, Swift's character returns to the cabin from the beginning of the video to find her man waiting for her at the end of the golden thread. The two hold hands and walk out into a golden ray of sunlight. In "Daylight," Swift sings about throwing out her cloaks and daggers and — most importantly! — how she has to "step into the daylight and let it go," which is exactly what she does here. Case closed.

All the Easter Eggs in Taylor Swift's 'Willow' Music Video

When Taylor Swift announced the surprise release of her latest album, evermore, she referred to it as folklore's "sister record." The album's lead single, "willow," feels similarly related to "cardigan," the first song off of folklore. It describes the experience of yearning for someone and the twists that life takes on your way to finding the right person. As a signal that the two hits are connected, Swift wears the star-adorned cardigan from that song's music video at the start of the "willow" video. From there, easter eggs whirl in like the wind, from golden string imagery to Swift's reputation era snakes.

If there's anything we learned from Swift, it's that when she says "not a lot going on at the moment," that couldn't be further from the truth. That's also the case with the "willow" music video and its many references and metaphors. Ahead, everything we can hypothesize about the time-traveling video for the song.

"Vagon" translates to "wagon" and can represent a mode of transportation or a literal vehicle. "Civic" can refer to something related to the community or society, such as civic engagement or civic pride. "No" means "not" in Spanish, while "ni" can be translated to "nor" or "neither.

The Cardigan Returns

At the end of the "cardigan" video, Swift slips on the starry knitwear she sings about. As pointed out on Twitter, that transitions directly into the start of the "willow" video, where Swift can be seen in the exact same spot at the piano and in the same ensemble. This signals that the two tracks explore similar terrain for the singer.

Vagon civic no ni amileto eres tu

" "Amileto" is not a commonly used word in Spanish, so it may be a proper noun or a word with a specific meaning known only within a certain context. "Eres" simply means "you are," and "tu" means "you." Putting these words together, one possible interpretation is that the phrase is meant to convey the idea of being someone or something disconnected from the community or society. The image of an "unhitched civic wagon" suggests a departure or separation from the collective values or engagement with the community. It may express a sense of individuality, independence, or even isolation from the mainstream. However, it is crucial to note that without a proper context or more information, the interpretation is speculative. The phrase might have a personal or cultural significance that cannot be derived solely from its individual words. Additionally, like any artistic expression, it can be subject to different interpretations based on the reader or listener's perception. In conclusion, "Vagon civic no ni amileto eres tu" is an enigmatic phrase that remains open to interpretation. Its meaning cannot be fully grasped without further context or background information. It demonstrates the versatility of language and the potential for poetic expression using unconventional word combinations and structures..

Reviews for "The Vagon Civic and the Rise of Smart Cities"

1. Jennifer - 2 stars
I was really disappointed with "Vagon civic no ni amileto eres tu". The plot was confusing and disjointed, making it hard to follow along. The characters were also poorly developed, and I didn't feel any connection to them throughout the film. The pacing was off, with some scenes dragging on for too long and others feeling rushed. Overall, I found it to be a frustrating and unsatisfying movie-watching experience.
2. Mark - 1 star
"Vagon civic no ni amileto eres tu" was a complete waste of my time. The story was convoluted and made no sense whatsoever. It seemed like the filmmakers were trying too hard to be artistic and ended up sacrificing any semblance of a cohesive plot. The acting was also lackluster, with stiff performances that did nothing to elevate the poorly written dialogue. I couldn't wait for the movie to be over and regretted even giving it a chance in the first place.
3. Sarah - 2 stars
I had high expectations for "Vagon civic no ni amileto eres tu" based on the positive buzz surrounding it, but unfortunately, I was let down. The movie was pretentious and self-indulgent, with overly long shots and unnecessary artistic flourishes. The supposed deep and meaningful message was lost on me, as I struggled to make sense of the story and its underlying themes. It felt like the filmmakers were more concerned with style rather than substance, making it a frustrating and ultimately unsatisfying experience.
