Taylor Swift, the queen of confessional songwriting, has once again opened the floodgates of her emotions with the release of previously unreleased tracks from the revamped ‘1989’ album. In the song ‘Is It Over Now,’ Swift doesn’t mince words as she takes a bold swipe at an unnamed ex-lover, leaving fans buzzing with speculation that the target of her lyrical daggers is none other than Harry Styles.
The track paints a vivid picture of betrayal, with Swift accusing her former flame of being a ‘lying traitor’ who engaged in dalliances with models post-breakup. The timeline of the song aligns with the year she wrote ‘1989,’ during which Swift was romantically linked with Harry Styles and Conor Kennedy, among others.
But the drama doesn’t end there. In another track titled ‘St!,’ Swift addresses the public scrutiny she faced for dating a heartthrob, with many fingers pointing towards Harry Styles. The lyrics capture the toll of the relentless media attention and public backlash, with Swift defiantly declaring, ‘If they call me a st, you know it might be worth it for once.’
Swift’s romantic history has been a rollercoaster ride, with dalliances with DJ Calvin Harris, guitarist John Mayer, film star Jake Gyllenhaal, actor Joe Alwyn, and The 1975’s Matty Healy. Currently in a relationship with American footballer Travis Kelce, Swift’s love life has been under the scrutiny of fans and the media alike.
In the prologue for ‘1989 (Taylor’s Version),’ Swift reflects on the challenges of navigating the dating landscape in the public eye. She reveals the struggles of being unfairly judged and scrutinized, leading her to avoid being seen with any man to thwart speculation.
Swift’s fans, known as Swifties, took to social media to express their excitement and theories about the unveiled tracks. One tweet humorously noted, ’22-year-old Taylor Swift calling Harry Styles a lying traitor is my favorite thing in the world.’ Another fan thanked Harry Styles for the breakup, attributing it to the release of the coveted ‘1989’ vault tracks.




In the mid-2010s, Swift made headlines for her ‘girl squad’ featuring celebrities like Selena Gomez, Gigi Hadid, the Haim sisters, Blake Lively, Cara Delevingne, and Hailee Steinfeld. However, even these platonic relationships didn’t escape public scrutiny, as Swift acknowledges, ‘If I only hung out with my female friends, people couldn’t sensationalize or sexualize that, right? I would learn later on that people could and people would.’
The release of these vault tracks not only offers a nostalgic trip for fans but also provides a raw and unfiltered glimpse into Taylor Swift’s tumultuous journey through love, fame, and self-discovery. As the lyrics unfold, one can’t help but be captivated by the authenticity that Swift brings to her music, inviting listeners to empathize with the highs and lows of her life in the public eye.
