Echo and Narcissus myth

Angela & Uncle Jerry discuss Narcissus as part of the folklore of mirrors. Uncle Jerry notes that mirrors are 'associated with the folklore with narcissists, the character who is looking at himself at a pond and becomes so enamored of his own image that he gets stuck.' This connects to the song's treatment of vanity and self-perception as elements of the mirrorball metaphor.

“My thoughts will echo your name”

Angela & Uncle Jerry note that the word 'echo' in the bridge connects to the myth of Echo and Narcissus. Echo is a minad who sees Narcissus and falls in love at first sight. Uncle Jerry acknowledges Taylor probably doesn't know this connection but notes the word 'echo' appears in the song and the myth is a love-at-first-sight story. Narcissus falling in love with his own reflection is the origin of the word narcissism.
