“Analyzing Taylor Swift’s New Album: Are Some Songs About Matty Healy?”
Headline: Taylor Swift’s New Album Sparks Rumors About Songs About Matty Healy
Taylor Swift has just dropped her latest album, “The Tortured Poets Department,” and fans are buzzing with speculation about whether some of the songs are about her rumored relationship with The 1975 singer, Matty Healy.
The rumors of Taylor and Matty’s brief romance last May sent Swifties into a frenzy, especially since it came shortly after her breakup with actor Joe Alwyn. Now, with the release of her new record, fans are dissecting songs like ‘Down Bad,’ ‘Fortnight,’ and more for potential references to her time with the musician.
In ‘Down Bad,’ Taylor addresses criticism she faced for dating Matty, alluding to his past controversies. Lines like “They’ll say I’m nuts if I talk about the existence of you” have fans speculating if she’s addressing the backlash she received for the relationship.
Similarly, in ‘But Daddy I Love Him,’ Taylor sings about wanting the relationship to work despite outside opinions. Lyrics like “‘Stay away from her’ the saboteurs protested too much… No I’m not coming to my senses, I know it’s crazy but he’s the one I want” hint at a defiant love story.
‘I Can Fix Him (No Really, I Can)’ sees Taylor trying to change a controversial man, referencing smoking and other traits that fans associate with Matty. Lines like “They shake their heads saying, ‘God, help her’ when I tell ’em he’s my man but your good Lord doesn’t need to lift a finger. I can fix him, no, really, I can” add fuel to the speculation.
Lastly, ‘Fortnight’ is believed to be about the short-lived romance between Taylor and Matty, with lyrics describing an intense but fleeting connection. Lines like “I love you, it’s ruining my life, I touched you for only a fortnight… I call you up but you won’t pick up, another fortnight lost in America” have fans convinced of the connection.
While Taylor remains tight-lipped about the inspirations behind her music, fans are eagerly dissecting the album for clues about her past relationships. Whether or not these songs are truly about Matty Healy, one thing is for sure – Swifties will be singing along to them on the Eras Tour.
