Taylor Swift – “Welcome To New York”
Taylor Swift has unveiled the third song from her upcoming new record, 1989. “Welcome To New York” follows in the footsteps of the recently released “Out Of The Woods” and lead single “Shake It Off.” The song was co-produced and co-written with OneRepublic’s Ryan Tedder. “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,” Swift said in an introductory video. “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.”
1989 is out 10/27 via Big Machine. “Welcome To New York” is on iTunes now.
