The story repeats itself. Taylor Swift draws on her heartbreak to create her musical masterpieces. On April 19, the singer marked her return with her eleventh album, “The Tortured Poets Department”, rich in emotions and stories. This is an opportunity for us to revisit the artist's former romantic relationships and to analyze the songs that came from them.
JOE JONAS (2008)
Between July and October 2008, Taylor Swift dated Joe Jonas, ex-Jonas Brother and current leader of DNCE. Their breakup, the first to be publicized for the singer, was characterized by an abrupt telephone conversation lasting only 27 seconds. His songs “Last Kiss” and “Forever and Always” are believed to have been inspired by this story. A little later, she revisited this relationship in a more positive light with the song “Holy Ground”.
TAYLOR LAUTNER (2009)
Taylor Lautner and Taylor Swift met in 2009 on the set of the romantic comedy “Valentine's Day.” Although their relationship was short-lived, it inspired Taylor Swift to write the song "Back to December." In this song, she talks about "Your Tanned Skin, Your Sweet Smile" and apologizes for the complicated evening where she ended their relationship.
JAKE GYLLENHAAL (2010-2011)
This is arguably one of Taylor Swift's most publicized relationships. Despite the couple's numerous appearances on the streets of New York and Los Angeles, the age difference (10 years) led Jake Gyllenhaal to end their relationship. “All Too Well,” which is dedicated to him, refers to several specific moments in their history, such as a road trip to northern New York and a Thanksgiving dinner at the actor’s sister’s house.
CONOR KENNEDY (2012)
During the summer of 2012, Taylor Swift crossed paths with Robert F. Kennedy's grandson, Conor Kennedy. Their romance was scrutinized by the public, particularly because of their age difference (she was 22 and he was only 18). The relationship became complicated when Conor's family accused Taylor of being an unauthorized guest at his cousin's wedding in August. Taylor's song "Begin Again" is often interpreted as having a connection to the scion of the Kennedy dynasty.
HARRY STYLES (2012-2013)
One of Taylor Swift's relationships that has most divided public opinion. One of Taylor Swift's loves which sparked a lot of reactions. Although their affair only lasted three months, they shared a memorable kiss in Times Square on New Year's Eve and survived a snowmobile accident. The song “I Knew You Were Trouble” is said to be inspired by the charming One Direction singer. Fine allusions to Harry Styles dot Taylor's "1989" album, particularly in "Out Of The Woods" which evokes their December romance and the incident in question, as well as in "Style", whose title is self-explanatory.
CALVIN HARRIS (2015-2016)
The tracks “Dancing With Our Hands Tied” and “I Forgot You Existed” are inspired by her history with Calvin Harris. Taylor Swift and the DJ's relationship has captivated audiences, with the couple regularly appearing together at events and sharing their daily lives extensively on social media.
