"Wildest Dreams" Music Video

Taylor released the Wildest Dreams music video at the 2015 MTV Video Music Awards on August 30, 2015.  This is my favorite music video from the 1989 era. This video is so reminiscent of other videos that Taylor has done.  There is a story.  Two actors are filming a movie in Africa, they have a relationship of sorts and really enjoy their time together.  When they attend the premiere Taylor finds out that he is now married and longs for their relationship they had while filming.  She runs away from the premiere heartbroken. This video is like You Belong to Me, Love Story and Story of Us all rolled into one, and is really what Taylor does best, story telling. There are many little details within the video that can be discovered with multiple viewings. The music video really enhances the song and endears the song even more.  There is an ode to the Style video with a shot of the eye at the beginning a prominent shot in the Style video, which many fans felt was more like a Wildest Dreams video.  Good job Taylor!

As a plus all the proceeds from the video will go to the African Parks Foundation of America.
