When Taylor Swift’s You’re Losing Me was made: Learn all there is to know as Jack Antonoff provided some incredible insight into when Taylor Swift’s “You’re Losing Me” was made.
Jack Antonoff is providing some insight into Taylor Swift’s Midnights breakup ballad “You’re Losing Me.” “‘You’re Losing Me’ is out today, a very special track from the Midnights sessions that’s finally streaming!” Antonoff, 39, wrote via his Instagram Story on Wednesday, November 28, alongside a photo of Swift, 33, digging into some snacks.
“Written and recorded at home on 12/5/21 after Taylor ate these raisins.” Swift initially dropped the vault track — which was coproduced by Antonoff — in May as a digital release track via her web store after it appeared on an exclusive CD edition sold to fans at her Eras Tour stop at MetLife Stadium. Upon the song’s release, eagle-eyed fans immediately began to speculate if Swift was referencing the end of her relationship with ex Joe Alwyn.
“Do I throw out everything we built or keep it? / I’m getting tired even for a phoenix,” Swift sings in the pre-chorus. “Always rising from the ashes / Mending all her gashes / You might just have dealt the final blow.” The second verse seemingly features Swift begging for her partner to see her pain. “I glared at you with storms in my eyes / How can you say that you love someone you can’t tell is dying?” she asks. “I sent you signals and bit my nails down to the quick / My face was gray, but you wouldn’t admit that we were sick.”
Fans were surprised by Antonoff’s claims about the timeline of the song, which would mean Swift penned the track more than one year before calling it quits with Alwyn, 32.
“So she felt this way for years,” one person commented via X (formerly Twitter). Another wrote, “Insane how she still tried to make it with him for a whole year after writing this devastating song.”
At the time of their split, a source exclusively told Us Weekly that the Grammy winner’s A-list celebrity status contributed to the pair’s breakup. “Joe is very shy and never liked all of the attention that came with dating one of the most popular singers in the world,” the insider explained, noting that the Conversations With Friends star “didn’t like having to be on all the time.”
