Taylor Swift has released the third single off her upcoming album and it has taken the Internet by storm and the singer’s fans by shock.
How come?
Because this isn’t a break-up anthem.
It’s actually… the opposite?!?
Apparently oh so VERY smitten with current boyfriend Joe Alwyn, Swift gushes over the British stud muffin throughout the course of this song, belting out such lyrics as:
You’re so gorgeous/I can’t say anything to your face/‘Cause look at your face/And I’m so furious/At you for making me feel this way/But what can I say?/You’re gorgeous.
Pretty straightforward, huh?
It’s worth mentioning that Alwyn has blue eyes and that Swift also cites “ocean blue eyes looking in mine, I feel like I might sink and drown and die” in the song.
“You make me so happy it turns back to sad, There’s nothing I hate more than what I can’t have,” she croons at another point.
Go ahead and listen to the single here:
Swift, a 10-time Grammy winner, has of course earned a reputation for often slamming ex-boyfriends in her music.
The most obvious example would be “Dear John,” a song very clearly about John Mayer, along with “I Knew You Were Trouble.”
But Alwyn clearly has a different kind of influence on the superstar.
He and Swift started dating in May and have actually kept their romance mostly on the Down Low, a stark change for a celebrity typically known for flaunting relationships in the media.
“Her decision to keep her relationship with Joe quiet is making her happy,” a source has told People Magazine, adding:
“They have been getting to know each other slowly without any pressure.”
And while the Internet often debates just who the subject is of various Taylor Swift songs, the answer is obvious this time around:
Swift’s upcoming sixth album, “Reputation,” hits stores on November 10.
She debuted the LP’s lead single, “Look What You Made Me Do,” in August; followed by a promotional track titled “…Ready for It?” in early September.
Neither was particularly well received by the listening public.
The video for “Look What You Made Me Do” was especially lambasted. Watch it below.
Of this new record, though, an insider tells Us Weekly that Swift isn’t messing around.
“She’s definitely coming for the Grammys,” the tabloid writes in its latest issue, adding that the disc is “her most experimental work yet in terms of sound.”
Look for her to go after Kanye West, Kim Kardashian, Katy Perry and Calvin Harris on different songs, a second insider tells this same magazine.
Also: look for Swift to be EVERYwhere later this fall in promotion of the album.
Are you ready for her musical comeback?!?
