Taylor Swift Releases New Song 'Cleveland!' About Marrying Travis Kelce
The Eras Tour star just surprised fans with four brand-new songs, releasing The Life of a Showgirl: The Encore on Friday, September 25th. The expanded version of her latest album features four previously unreleased tracks: "Patient Zero," "Cleveland!," "Pink Clouding," and "Babylon." Taylor previously explained that the songs were written after she traveled to Sweden to celebrate the success of The Life of a Showgirl with producers Max Martin and Shellback.
One of the new tracks, "Cleveland!," is clearly packed with references to Travis Kelce, from its title nodding to his Ohio hometown to lyrics about him taking her to Cleveland Heights. The football star even mentioned Cleveland on his New Heights podcast just days before the song's release, giving fans another connection to the track. The song also appears to reference the couple's July 3rd wedding, which took place at Madison Square Garden in New York City and reportedly brought around 1,000 guests together for their celebration.
"Something we all can agree on," she sings. "But my baby likes what he likes, oh-woah, oh-oh. He already took me to Cleveland and showed me The Heights, so hate all you like. This is the love of my life, hey, hey, hey."
The Internet Mocks Taylor's 'Cleveland!' Lyrics
Swifties and other internet users were quick to weigh in after the lyrics to the Grammy-winner's four new songs surfaced online, and not everyone was impressed.
Fans and critics alike mocked some of the new lyrics on social media, with some questioning whether Taylor's songwriting is still living up to her reputation. The reaction echoes the response to The Life of a Showgirl last year, when some listeners similarly criticized the album's lyrics and songwriting.
"I fear AI could've come up with better lyrics," commented an Instagram user.
"It's like a teenager wrote their first song," a fan wrote, with another adding, "I actually don't think I can do this again."
"God, it's so bad," a user commented. "What in the AI slop?" asked another.
"This is awful," commented an Instagram user, as another wrote, "I can't believe this is the same person who wrote folklore and evermore."
