<aside> 💡 Analysis - An antidote is a “medicine taken or given to counteract a particular poison.” ****Harry Styles references “antidote” multiple times across his discography. The first instance is in his song, Ever Since New York, where he says “Choose your words, 'cause there's no antidote For this curse, oh, what's it waiting for?” It’s interesting that Styles connects the idea of poison with a “curse” - especially as Taylor seems to allude to her queerness being a Curse/Cursed in her discography. His next mentions of antidote are in his song Golden - “Loving you’s the antidote, golden” and in Daylight “You’ve got the antidote I’ll take one to go, go please.”
