Kasper Marott: вЂњDrГёmmen om Г (Forever Mix вЂ™19)вЂќ It turns out the woman who built a career on fairy tales and scorched-earth breakup songs is just as deft with the simple and soulful. This is the stuff of real intimacy, of partnership, of creating a language and a life together. вЂњLoverвЂќ features a classically swooning, Swiftian bridge-one designed to soundtrack wedding vows in renovated barns until the end of time-but its most penetrating lines depict the unglamorous stuff: telling dirty jokes, saving seats, deciding whether or not to drag out the air mattress for your college friends.

How can you make sure a good thing lasts forever? Both songs are tributes to the dirty work that goes into keeping a relationship healthy, and theyвЂ™re spiked with the fear and doubt people feel even when that work is paying off. With its rustic arrangement and domestic imagery, it sounds like a spiritual sequel to вЂњNew YearвЂ™s Day,вЂќ the acoustic cleansing that closes 2017вЂ™s divisive Reputation. вЂњLover,вЂќ the title track from her most recent blockbuster LP, is a reminder of how effortlessly she can translate specific gestures and moments into universal expressions of romance. ThereвЂ™s room in Taylor SwiftвЂ™s galaxy for celebrity warfare, veiled political commentary, and enthusiastic allyship, but her work is finest when itвЂ™s laser-focused on flawed, hopeful people making a connection.
