Taylor Swift‘s song “Wood” may have shocked some with its explicit nature … but, at least one fan says ya just gotta marvel at how beautiful she can make the shocking.
We spoke with Olivia Levin — an expert on all things T-Swift — on “TMZ Live” … and, we asked her about “The Life of a Showgirl,” Swift’s new album, which came out Friday.
As we told you … on the track, Swift sings, “Forgive me, it sounds cocky / He ah-matized me / And opened my eyes / Redwood tree / It ain’t hard to see / His love was the key / That opened my thighs.”
Levin says she wasn’t shocked to hear the lyrics from Taylor … but, she argues only Swift could take such topics and make them sound downright beautiful with all the double meanings and imagery.
Levin also praised her choice of working with Max Martin and Shellback for the first time since she dropped “Reputation” in 2017 … and, she also got into the way Taylor uses song titles to play tricks on her audience.
For example, so many Swifites thought the song “Ruin the Friendship” would be about Blake Lively … though it seems Taylor referenced her former friend on “CANCELLED!” instead. Levin says she’s sure Swift would’ve known her fans would think one way before the album came out.
Basically … one of the chief Swifties says the group loves it — which, let’s be honest, ain’t a surprise!
