So Much You Can Do
Taylor Swift sat down with Entertainment Weekly to chat about the latest events going on in her life. Highlights from the interview are below.
On her song “Sweeter Than Fiction” featured in the film One Chance: “I fell in love with the film after I got to see it. I was lucky to be one of the first people to see it. I think [producer Harvey Weinstein] knew what he was doing. He contacted us and said, ‘I think I have a film Taylor should see.’ I don’t think he needed to say a word; he knew I’d go and write an end-credits song. So for me there were so many different amazing themes about the movie to draw from. My experience with songwriting is usually so confessional, it’s so drawn from my own life and my own stories. There’s something so unique about that and I get a special buzz from that. But it’s also kind of cool to focus on somebody else’s storylines.”
On her Golden Globe nomination: “I got a text from Lena [Dunham] as soon as it happened and she’s like, ‘Holy Golden Globe nomination!’ And I texted back: ‘Don’t lie, that’s not funny.’ And I called her up and I was screaming. And she was screaming. And then Jack woke up and he was screaming. It happened on my birthday so it was the most unbelievable occurrence”
On her upcoming album: “A great deal of what will happen this year has to do with what will happen this next month. But for me writing the next record, it usually takes me awhile to find the new sound. It usually takes me a year to shed the last album’s sound and start anew. And this one just started on new territory.”
