Not every Taylor Swift fan got tickets to her awe-inspiring Eras tour, but every fan wonders what her incredibly beloved music is about. While some hit songs like “22” and “Shake It Off” are about feeling confident and having fun, the most popular songs Swift has written are about her many romances. While Swift’s relationship with Jake Gyllenhaal was well-documented in her song “All Too Well” (including the epic 10-minute version), she has been linked to another actor.
Taylor Swift’s rumored past romance with Matthew Gray Gubler is intriguing since he is such a likable actor. Criminal Minds star Gubler’s relationship history includes a few celebrities, but no one as famous as the singer. In this article, we’ll take a look at the Taylor Swift songs that fans think are about Swift and Matthew Gray Gubler’s relationship.
Taylor Swift Fans Think That “Wildest Dreams” Is About Her Rumored Relationship With Matthew Gray Gubler
In a thread on Reddit, some of Taylor Swift’s fans wondered if she wrote “Wildest Dreams” about Matthew Gray Gubler. The song was released on her album “1989,” which came out in 2014. While it might not have gotten as much attention as “Style,” “Blank Space,” and “Shake It Off,” it’s a beautifully haunting tune and a fan-favorite.
In a discussion about “Wildest Dreams,” Redditor @thrt-lvl-midnight said, “I’ve seen a lot of people say it’s about Matthew Gray Gubler.” Redditor @skermahger agreed:
“Ok that’s who I thought too! He was at one of her Fourth of July parties and there were articles about them being into each other but not exclusive etc etc.”
As many fans pointed out, Matthew Gray Gubler was a guest at the Fourth of July partySwift hosted in 2013. Fans think that “Wildest Dreams” could be about Gubler for this reason. The singer is known for these gatherings, which are often packed with celebrities. However, it should be noted that Swift and Gubler never said they were together, and neither star said that he was at this party.
A few fans discussed whether “Wildest Dreams” could be about Matthew Gray Gubler in a second Reddit thread. Redditor @OrdenofWren said “He went to her Fourth of July party which they surreptiously kept off social media…” and referenced the blog Oh No They Didn’t. According to a post, Gubler and Swift posted selfies and people noticed the same kitchen cabinets behind them. This suggested that they were both at Swift’s house in Rhode Island. Lainey Gossip reported that the stars deleted the pictures, which could mean that they didn’t want anyone to keep talking about it.
Taylor Swift’s “Wildest Dreams” Chorus Lyrics
- Say you’ll remember me
- Standing in a nice dress
- Staring at the sunset, babe
- Red lips and rosy cheeks
- Say you’ll see me again
- Even if it’s just in your wildest dreams
Taylor Swift’s popular song “Wildest Dreams” is one of her most romantic and poetic. The lyrics suggest that the singer didn’t think the relationship would last, but she had fun anyway. While there’s no way of knowing who Swift wrote the song about unless she explains her inspiration, it’s still interesting that some people think it could be about Gubler. At the very least, fans would likely agree that “Wildest Dreams” tells a sweet story of an exciting romance. While Gubler is never mentioned as one of Swift’s most popular ex-boyfriends, there’s no doubt that the Criminal Minds actor is beloved and generally considered a kind person.
Taylor Swift Fans Also Wonder If “Begin Again” Is About Matthew Gray Gubler
A Taylor Swift fan posted on Reddit that they read that Taylor Swift wrote “Begin Again” about Matthew Gray Gubler. Redditor @HoneyBlue13 wrote:
“I think I heard it years back because if the reference to James Taylor who he also loves? But I have no evidence for this at all. I think it was just something I heard once.”
As the fan explained, people can only speculate about who Swift was thinking about when she wrote this particular song as she hasn’t explained it. Gubler does seem to enjoy James Taylor’s music, though, at least according to a post on the SubReddit about the actor.
In an interview with Our Country, Swift shared about writing “Begin Again.” She said:
“I had many different opinions of love over the course of the last two years. And the song ‘Begin Again’ came after the dust kind of settled on one of those situations I was in. It’s an interesting feeling when you kind of look up from it. For the past year you’ve been looking back and recounting everything, just writing about it and kind of going back in time.”
Swift continued that “there’s rebirth in that whole horrible crash-and-burn end of a relationship” and “that’s a pretty wonderful moment.” It’s unclear who Swift was talking about, but she sounded reflective.
While a fan wondered if “Begin Again” could refer to Matthew Gray Gubler, another suggested that it could apply to Conor Kennedy since Swift stopped dating him before the album “Red” was released.
The fact that so many fans are curious about the subject of Taylor Swift’s song “Begin Again” is a testament to the amazing music that she has been releasing ever since she first came onto the country/pop music scene.
