It has always bothered me how Taylor does such an exaggerated wave here but now it makes sense! I think it's a callback to Kate Bush's video.

Version two of the MV has her waving the same way but she's in the real world this time and she literally ghosts, but then reappears only to ghost again, each time going further back.

Note how in version one of Kate Bush's music video you see ethereal Kate in a dreamlike place that looks hazy (👀) and there are THREE of her, one is huge and the other two are mirrored

Honey reminds me of False God 👀

Actually this one's probably better

And my advice is always answer the question, better that than to ask it all your life. Can I ask you a Question?
