Taylor Swift’s 1st Phone Call With Tim McGraw (口白)-Taylor Swift

Hey a little bit ago we were talking about uh

Songwriting and listening to songs

And putting down what you feel in the song

And um up next in the countdown is

Taylor Swift

And have you heard this song yet

I have heard this song

And what what did you think the

What did you think

The first time you heard it

Or how was the first time

It was awesome uh except for

I didn't know if I should

I should take it as a compliment

Or I should feel old

Ah ha ha ha

I didn't know which one but the more

The more I hear it the more

I don't know if it's true or not

But I start taking it as a compliment

And not that I feel that I'm old

I don't know if that's true

But that's what I choose to think

Why don't we find out Taylor

Is a compliment or uh he's old

Oh it's definitely a compliment

Yeah

Tim McGraw meet Taylor Swift

Nice

Nice to meet you

Nice to meet you Taylor how you doing

I'm doing great how are you doing

I'm doing good congratulations on

Your record it's doing great

Thank you so much I'm just so excited

Thank you for uh having good

Music and everything

I swear I'm not a stalker

Well

The funny thing about this song is ya know

As a writer some of the songs that

You write like four hours you'll

Do them writing a song and it'll be

Good and everything but I wrote this

One in literally 15 minutes

And ya know

I really didn't think anything about

Calling in Tim McGraw so

You know I kinda shelved it for like

Three months and never even

Thought that it was going to

Be a single but um my label

Heard it and was like

We're putting that out

Well I'm glad ya did 'cause um it's doing well for ya

So I so I understand that you two guys have not talked

No

You haven't met

No

No we've never talked or met or anything

I sent her a message one time

I think with entertainment weekly

Or something like that oh

I don't remember what show it was

I was doing an interview and they

Were going to interview Taylor the next day

So I sent her a little message so

I don't know if she got it or not

Oh my God they never gave that to me

They didn't okay well there ya go I did

So I I

We've just officially never never

Talked or messaged or anything

Not at all

So I thought I think it's pretty brave

To put out a song called Tim McGraw

Without maybe talking to Tim McGraw did you mind

It was definitely kind of a chance

But

Ya know I didn't say anything bad in the song so

I was kinda thinking ya know he wouldn't take it too bad

Well thank you for that thank you for not saying anything bad

I'm sure there's plenty that could've been said tell me

Could you tell faith that I said hello

I sure will I sure will

And she loves the song too by the way

Oh my gosh she's awesome

I agree

This this tell me about writing a song um did this

Did this really happen

Well yeah I mean I never really kinda went into this writing

Session on I'm gonna write a song called Tim McGraw

Um yeah because that would just

Be weird but um

I actually this this is kinda

Strange but I actually came up with the

Melody and ideas for this song

In math class in my freshman year

Of high school

Now I feel old

And um I was sitting there and was kind

Of started singing it to myself

And you know

I was going through a period where

I was dating this guy that was going

Off to college and I knew we were gonna break up

So I started to think about all the things that

I knew would remind him of me

And it's like kinda a given one of

All my friends ya know

That my favorite songs are

Tim McGraw songs they just are

Aww thank you

And uh you know so I kinda just thought

About that first and so it pointed to

The song and just sat down at that piano

And wrote it with this co writer who was

Kinda wondering if I was crazy or not but

It turned out alright and ya know

The funny thing is that

I shelved this song for like three

Months and never never even played it for anybody

Never even demoed it

And uh then one time

I was just goofing around and played

It for my record label president and he goes

Well that's your first single

And I'm like well

Well you can write songs about me anytime Taylor

That's awesome there's a part two coming out next month

Alright great

Well congratulations 'cause it's your first single

First top ten hit and thats pretty exciting

And I know you're off to the races here

You're just doing great and uh congratulations

Very exciting for you

Awesome it's been so exciting

Tim when are you gonna start

Like bringing out opening acts again

Um I don't know I don't know

We'll have to look into that

Well I'll I have someone who

I think will be really perfect for it

Ya do what would

Something like that yeah

But
