[2023 Person of the Year -- Taylor Swift]

She's been this sort of light in the world this year.

今年她就像是世界上的一道光。

程度副詞

Thank you for writing music that expresses feelings nobody else can express.

感謝你創作出表達其他人無法表達的情感的音樂。

It just made me feel like I wasn't alone and I wasn't crazy for feeling the way that I was feeling.

這讓我覺得我並不孤單，我也沒有因為自己的感覺而瘋狂。

We all went through the same things together.

It's a massive stadium and it feels like you're with her, one on one.

這是一個巨大的體育場，但感覺就像你和她一對一 在一起。

[泰勒絲如何完整了我的這一年]

Friendship Bracelets are a huge part of the Eras Tour.

友誼手鍊是時代巡迴演唱會中重要的一部分。

Exchanging special handmade Friendship Bracelets.

It all goes back to Taylor's song, You're on Your Own, Kid.

這一切都源於泰勒的那首歌：You're on Your Own, Kid。

So my friends and I got tickets to the Eras Tour.

所以我和我的朋友們拿到了時代巡迴演唱會的門票。

You realize 200 bracelets were way too many for us to all bring in trade.

我們意識到 200 條手鐲對我們來說太多了，無法全部帶去交換。

Kim actually came up with the idea to put them on Etsy and sell them.

Kim 想出了把它們放到 Etsy 上銷售的主意。

I went to bed, woke up the next morning and we had over 300 bracelets on order.

我上床睡覺，第二天早上醒來，我們已經有 300 多個手鍊的訂單了。

I was just refreshing the Etsy page and I could see the sales going up. It was like 5, 6, 7.

我剛剛刷新了 Etsy 的頁面，我看到銷售額在上升，一直增加。

And I was like, "Oh my gosh, I'm gonna have to make 200 bracelets tomorrow morning."

我當時就想：「天哪，我明早得做 200 個。」

And then finally like, "Okay, we shut it down, we shut it down."

最後我們說：「好吧，我們把它關掉，把它關掉。」

We only have to make like 50. We're like, "Ok, we can do that."

最後我們只需要做 50 個就夠了，我們說：「好這樣就好了，我們做得出來。」

This morning, I ran the numbers and we're at $19,000 in sales.

今天早上，我算了一筆賬，我們的銷售額達到了 1.9 萬美元。

時代巡迴演唱會就是我的羅馬帝國。

I think about it all the time, every day.

I hear a song, "That's a great bracelet song. That's a good thing to put on a bracelet."

我聽到了一首歌，就會想：「這是一首很棒的手鍊歌。把它放在手鍊上不錯。」

This business definitely keeps us in touch.

Two of us live in Massachusetts, the other two live in Connecticut.

我們兩個人住在馬薩諸塞州，另外兩個人住在康乃狄克州

Now we have to meet up and trade bracelets, drop off, talk almost every single day.

現在，我們幾乎每天都要見面，交換手鍊，下車，哈拉。

Keep making more songs, Taylor, so we can keep making more bracelets.

泰勒絲，請繼續創作更多的歌曲，這樣我們就能繼續製作更多的手鍊。

[4 月至 8 月友誼手鍊的 Etsy 銷售額達到 3,000,000 美元]

我參加了舉名盛世巡迴演唱會。

So we struck up a conversation and he told me about the gig that he has.

所以我們開始交談，他告訴我他的工作。

A couple of years later, I found some free time, so I picked up that job, ultimately to try and work at Taylor Swift concert.

幾年後，我找到了一些空閒時間，所以我接受了那份工作，最終嘗試在泰勒絲的演唱會上工作。

During a sold out show, security guard and self-proclaimed Swifty Calvin Dinker was working on the floor.

在一場售完的演出中，保全和自稱 Swifty 的 Calvin Dinker 正在現場工作。

I worked kind of right along the edge of her stage.

After night one, I made little pieces of paper that asked the audience if they could take photos of me with Taylor Swift in the background and text it to me.

第一晚結束後，我做了一些小卡片，詢問觀眾是否可以拍下我和泰勒絲在我背後的照片，然後傳給我。

When she came right behind me, there were a ton of fans and I had to look at the fans.

當她來到我身後時，有很多粉絲，我必須看著粉絲們。

I saw all of their faces light up when she gets near them.

當她靠近他們時，我看到他們的臉上都露出了笑容。

And it was just a sight even if I wasn't looking at her on that stage.

即使我沒有看著在舞台上的她，也是一個很美好的景象。

They had me kneel up on the stage and I see Taylor Swift; she's coming toward me.

他們讓我跪在舞台上，我看到了泰勒絲； 她正在向我走來。

This has become a special moment every night at the Eras Tour.

這已成為時代巡迴演唱會每晚的特殊時刻。

Each night, Swift picks a young fan to give that hat to during the song 22.

每晚，泰勒絲都會挑選一位小粉絲，在演唱《22》這首歌時把帽子送給她。

Everything I do is handmade and it's like a beautiful process because it's more intimate.

我所做的帽子都是手工製作的，這就像一個美麗的過程，因為它更緊密。

I was already working with Taylor's wardrobe team and they approached me to do the classic Fedora for the video for 22.

我當時已經與泰勒絲的服裝團隊合作，他們邀請我為《22》的影片設計經典的 Fedora。

The connection that she has with her fan in that moment, it was so emotional for me to see.

在那一刻，她與粉絲之間的聯繫讓我動容。

Taylor has been empowered so many women with her music and to me, I be a part of that always, I'm trying to empower women with my craftsman and be together is so beautiful to me.

泰勒絲用她的音樂賦予了很多女性力量，對我來說，我也一直是其中的一員，我試圖用我的手藝賦予女性力量，在一起對我來說是如此美好。

I always do from like the moment I wanted to propose, I wanted to do it at Taylor Swift concert.

從我想求婚的那一刻起，我就想在泰勒絲特的演唱會上求婚。

You know, I was like, "What are the logistics of that? How long am I willing to wait?"

你知道，我當時想：「這樣做的流程是什麼？我會等多久？」

I was like, okay, I've got to figure out how to go in with the ring.

我當時想，好吧，我得想想怎麼帶戒指進去。

I need to see where exactly in the lyrics, I have to kneel down to, you know, nail it.

我需要看看歌詞中的具體位置，我必須跪下來，你知道，讓他完美。

All I could think of is what is the line I need to go down on one knee.

我所能想到的就是我需要單膝跪下的歌詞是什麼。

2 to 3 weeks before the actual date of the tour.

I would play the song whenever I would go to work and whenever I would come back, just to make sure, okay, this is the part that I have to kneel down.

每當我去上班和回來時，我都會播放這首歌，以確保哪個地方是我必須跪下的部分。

You got so many different angles of the proposal and I have some of them saved as like Swifty section 326.

我們有很多不同角度的求婚畫面，我把其中一些保存為 Swifty 第 326 區。

I mean, I've never seen so much brightness and glitter around all in one spot.

我的意思是，我從來沒有在一個地方見過如此多的亮度和閃光。

I've never been a part of such a supportive community like that.

我從來沒有加入過這樣一個充滿支持的社群。

I just knew that when I proposed to Nick, I needed Taylor to be a part of it because she's been such momentous, impactful person for Nick his whole life.

我只知道當我向尼克求婚時，我需要泰勒參與其中，因為她對尼克的一生來說都是如此重要、有影響力的人。

And as much as I love her too, it just felt like this is something I want Nick to remember forever.

儘管我也很愛她，但我感覺這是我希望尼克永遠記得的。

I want everything he loves to be a part of the experience for him.

我希望他喜歡的一切都能成為他體驗的一部分。

She's been there on the hardest days of my life and she's been there for the best days of my life. [Fisrt artist to occupy all top 10 spots on the Billboard Hot 100 in a single week]

她陪伴我度過了我一生中最艱難的日子，也陪伴我度過了我一生中最美好的時光。 [第一位在一週內佔據 Billboard Hot 100 全部前 10 位的藝人]

For her to be able to successfully relate to so many people in the way that she has.

她能夠以她現在的方式成功地與這麼多人建立聯繫。
