Taylor Swift has released the lead song off her new album.
On the heels of "Shake It Off" and "Out of the Woods," the 24-year old musical sensation unveiled "Welcome to New York" at midnight, another catch track that will kick off the upcoming CD, "1989."
Give it a listen here:
"I started the album with 'Welcome to New York' because New York has been an important landscape and location for the story of my life in the last couple of years," said Swift via press release.
She went on to reflect on The Big Apple:
"It's like an electric city, and I approached moving there with such wide-eyed optimism. I saw New York as a place of endless potential and possibilities, and you can hear that reflected in this music and in this song."
Swift, sadly, has often taken criticism for penning songs about past relationships, something she labeled sexist in an interview this week.
"You're going to have people who are gonna say, 'Oh you know, like she just writes songs about her ex-boyfriends,' and I think, frankly, that's just a very sexist angle to take," she told 2DayFM.
"No one says that about Ed Sheeran. No one says it about Bruno Mars. They're all writing about their exes, their current girlfriends, their love life and no one raises a red flag there."
1989 will come out on October 27.
We're guessing she prefers singing.
