Songs about her celebrity (ex) boyfriends are one of Taylor Swift’s trademarks. But how exactly do her famous friends come across in her songs?
“It’s the worst men I write about best,” explains Taylor Swift self-deprecatingly in the final poem of her current album “The Tortured Poets Department.” If you look at the discography of her 18-year career, she doesn’t seem to be wrong, because her greatest heartbreak always creates artfully created power ballads and depressing melodies, and her happiness creates the most enthusiastic hymns of praise. And each (ex) partner gets their very own Swift song package.
