“Call It What You Want”
“Call It What You Want” (Track 14 on “Reputation”): “Call It What You Want” (CIWYW) has always been one of my original favorite Taylor Swift songs and with every listen, I only solidify that more. There’s something so delicate and comforting about this song, from the gentle synth and beat. The lyrics are so Taylor Swift, from the metaphors she uses to describe a love story that is hers and her lover’s alone, not letting outside people determine their relationship. With the context of “Reputation”, which she wrote in a period of her life where she disappeared from the public after numerous fake scandals and an incident with Kanye West, it is simply just a beautiful message accompanied by a steady rhythm.
