"Ronan (Taylor's Version)" "Ronan" was the first song where tears started trickling down my cheeks unannounced. Based on a bereaved mother Maya Thompson's blog about her 4-year-old son Ronan's death from cancer, Taylor released "Ronan" as a benefit for cancer research in 2012. I couldn't hear anything past the lyric, "And what if I kept the hand-me-downs you won't grow into?" as I was inundated with a flood of emotions. Taylor's shaky breath in "Ronan" hits a little too close to home after hearing her struggle to sing her 2019 Lover track "Soon You'll Get Better."
