Taylor Swift shares new track "Welcome To New York"
Taylor Swift has shared 1989 opener "Welcome To New York" following last week's "Out Of The Woods" (which we still can't get out our heads).
Swift explains the track in a short preceding clip, saying:
"I wanted to start the album with this song because New York has been an important landscape and location for the story of my life for the last couple of years... the inspiration that I found in that city is kind of hard to describe and hard to compare to any other force of inspiration I’ve ever experienced in my life. It’s like an electric city. I approached moving there with such wide-eyed optimism and sort of saw it as a place of endless potential and possibilities and you can kind of hear that reflected in this music and this first song especially."
The song was written with OneRepublic's Ryan Tedder.
Listen to the track below.
