Artists are Anti-Heroes.Taylor Swift's "Anti-Hero" was released as the first single from the Midnights album. Unlike Superman, Captain America, or Iron Man, who always show heroic appearances in superhero movies, he is a hero with a major flaw in some areas. I'll stare directly at the sun but never in the mirror. This is a famous line that fans of Taylor Swift probably know very well. I became one of her fans thanks to my daughter. What I like most about her is that she is a strong woman who always takes on challenges and creates, and above all, overcomes the many difficulties in front of her with a passion. And I like one of her songs, Antihero. This story contains the agony and conflict of a world-class top star but also a human being. In this era, all information is open and people can peer into and observe each other's lives. Therefore, it is very easy to compare them. Amid these comparisons, we become discouraged, lose confidence, and shrink. Even Taylor Swift, who is a hero of her time, wrote an autobiographical song about how she feels like she is her own antihero, so it seems like she spends a lot of time blaming herself, feeling like a loser at times rather than her antihero as a regular person. Rather, we may be taking comfort in the fact that even she, a successful top star, is discouraged. Because we are all human beings, we share common pain and concerns. I love her honesty and her unique storytelling and narration in this regard.
In some ways, the world may only need heroes. If people are worthy of respect, love, talent, or anything else that doesn't shine, they are easily forgotten, not respected, and not remembered. Even Taylor, who sparkles like a beautiful jewel, confesses that she struggled fiercely to be respected by people. When we have to find existence in our seemingly worthless existence, and when we are afraid to even look in the mirror, if we can say, “Hi, it's me,” then I think I’m a very healthy person.
