Taylor Swift is already mixing up the pop game with her new album 1989, and following the first single “Shake it off”, Swift has now released her second track, “Out of the woods”.
Swift wrote the song with Fun’s Jack Antonoff, and takes a bit of a darker tone than her normal style.
Lyrically, though, it’s still classic Swift, capturing the anxiety of a volatile romance with poignant little details — there are paper airplanes flying, and Swift and her would-be-beau have to move the furniture so they can dance; and, of course, there’s that much-discussed bridge about an accident that landed the unlucky couple in the hospital.
But it’s the furious chant of that anthemic chorus, all breathless urgency, and the left-of-center production that help Swift perform the niftiest sleight of hand: Even with lyrics that include some of her most headline-grabbing autobiographical admissions to date, the most interesting thing here isn’t who it’s about, but rather, how different it sounds.
Listen to “Out of the Woods” here, and check out Taylor Swift’s music on Kalahari.
