Guessing Game: Which Celebrities Are the Surprising Stars of Taylor Swift’s Songs?
Getaway Car (Reputation, 2017)
Who was it about: Tom Hiddleston
Lyrics: “But you weren’t thinkin’… And I was just drinkin’… Well, he was runnin’ after us, I was screamin’, “go, go, go!”… But with three of us, honey, it’s a sideshow… And a circus ain’t a love story /And now we’re both sorry.”
Story behind the lyrics: A whirlwind tour of her headline-grabbing romances with Tom and Calvin, “Getaway Car” symbolizes Taylor in the driver’s seat, zipping away from one love story, only to crash into another, with the paparazzi in hot pursuit—it’s like a blockbuster movie set to music! Her relationship with Tom came hot on the heels of her split from Calvin, turning their love saga into tabloid gold. By the time “Reputation” rolled out, Taylor had switched lanes, cruising into a calmer romance with Joe, leaving the tumultuous times with Tom and Calvin in the rearview mirror.
