Taylor Swift, who is often inspired by her own relationships when writing songs, has spoken on how love inspires her. Taylor admits that she finds the subject so fascinating because of how so many different emotions connected to being in love, while the songs also make her grow and help her to change:
“I think that love is always going to be a huge theme in what I write about just because there are no two similar relationships, there are no two times that you feel love the same way or hurt the same way or [feel] rejection in the same way. It’s all different and I’m fascinated by that. I really love to go back to human interaction and the way we make each other feel. But that at 22 is different than it was at 18 or 19 when I made my last album and 16 and 17 when I made ‘Fearless’. As you grow, you change in the way you process emotion.”
Taylor also reveals that she has been working overtime on her new album, and has even been told to stop by her record label, but because she continues to get new ideas, she keeps changing songs and creating new versions of already complete pieces:
“So far, I’ve been writing so much in the last year and the label keeps telling me, ‘All right, we’re finished; all right, we’re satisfied; OK, this is done now.’ And then I just keep writing and I keep turning it in in different versions. I’m going to work on it until I literally have zero time left to work on it, because I’m having so much fun working on this album.”
