How do these incredible Taylor Swift songs relate to the lovable characters from Modern Family?

Stick around for the ultimate breakdown!

Phil Dunphy: Today Was a Fairytale.

Phil saw every day as a new opportunity to bring joy and happiness to everyone around him. His high vibrational energy was unmatched.

Taylor sings, “But can you feel this magic in the air? It must have been the way today was a fairytale.”

Every day was like a fairytale for Phil, which is why this Taylor song belongs to him.

Claire Dunphy: Never Grow Up.

Claire often made petty complaints about how much her kids annoyed her, but ultimately, she loved being a mom and she loved having them around.

Taylor sings, “Oh, darlin’, don’t you ever grow up. Don’t you ever grow up. Just stay this little.”

These are words Claire deeply resonated with as she watched her kids grow up and move out.

Haley Dunphy: 22.

Haley perpetually acted like a 22-year-old party girl until she got knocked up with Dylan’s babies. She loved to drink, smoke, and live her best life until motherhood became her reality.

Taylor sings, “I don’t know about you, but I’m feeling 22. Everything will be alright if you keep me next to you. You don’t know about me, but I’ll bet you want to. Everything will be alright if we just keep dancing like we’re 22!”

Haley’s party-girl mentality was a hugely defining factor for her character for the majority of the show.

Alex Dunphy: Ready For It?

Alex’s sexual awakening came as a shock to the system for the entire family when she started showing an interest in the opposite gender.

She had multiple love interests but Ben, Claire’s assistant, and Bill, the firefighter, were two partners she was very sexually active with.

Taylor sings, “In the middle of the night, in my dreams, you should see the things we do, baby, mmm. In the middle of the night, in my dreams, I know I’m gonna be with you, so I take my time. Are you ready for it?”

These lyrics sound like exactly what Alex would say to Ben or Bill!

Luke Dunphy: Shake It Off.

Luke never flinched when people criticized him for really anything. He did whatever he wanted without the fear of judgment from others.

Taylor sings, “I stay out too late. Got nothing in my brain. That’s what people say. I go on too many dates. But I can’t make ’em stay. At least that’s what people say. I shake it off I shake it off.”

Luke never got good grades and blew his chances with girls he liked all the time. But he always shook it off.

Jay Pritchett: Daylight.

Jay’s thoughts regarding his marriage to Gloria were always very sweet. He felt lucky to have a chance with her!

Taylor sings, “I don’t wanna look at anything else now that I saw you. I don’t wanna think of anything else now that I thought of you. I’ve been sleeping so long in a 20-year dark night. And now I see daylight, I only see daylight.”

For Jay, being with Gloria was like finding daylight for the first time.

Gloria Delgado-Pritchett: ME!

Gloria had more self-confidence than anyone she ever stood next to. Her self-love was through the roof!

Taylor sings, “I know that I’m a handful, baby.” Gloria was a handful.

Taylor also sings, “I know that I went psycho on the phone.” Gloria would go psycho on the phone often.

Later, Taylor sings, “One of these things is not like the others. Like a rainbow with all of the colors. Baby doll, when it comes to a lover. I promise that you’ll never find another like me.”

Gloria was well aware that she was a baddie.

Manny Delgado: Enchanted.

Manny fell head over heels in love with any woman who gave him the time of day. He was a hopeless romantic, after all.

Taylor sings, “All I can say is, I was enchanted to meet you. This night is sparkling, don’t you let it go. I’m wonderstruck, blushing all the way home. I’ll spend forever wondering if you knew. I was enchanted to meet you.”

These words easily describe Manny on his way home after meeting each new crush who came along.

Cam Tucker: Bejeweled.

Cam was a gem of a human who radiated self-love, high vibrations, and happiness.

Taylor sings, “Best believe I’m still bejeweled. When I walk in the room, I can still make the whole place shimmer.”

Truth be told, Cam is one Modern Family character who always made every room shimmer with his sense of humor, amusing charm, and endearing nature.

Mitch Pritchett: You Need to Calm Down.

Mitch was a lawyer who knew how to use his words to his advantage in most instances.

Taylor sings, “You need to calm down. You’re being too loud. And I’m just like oh! You need to just stop. Like, can you just not step on his gown? You need to calm down.”

This LGBTQ anthem is perfect for Mitch who was one of the main gay characters on Modern Family. Plus, he was often telling anyone who was overly excited to calm down.

Lily Tucker-Pritchett: Bad Blood.

It was easy enough for every character on Modern Family to have bad blood with Lily since she had little to no patience for anyone’s BS.

Taylor sings, “Baby, now we got bad blood. Now we got problems and I don’t think we can solve ’em.”

Getting on Lily’s bad side was a huge regret for all her family members because her words cut deep like a knife!
