BREAK UP LOVE MERGE WITH ART: Taylor Swift shares the inspiration behind ‘TTPD’ songs – including 2 ‘tragic’ songs about ‘broken’ relationships


Swift, 34, did not name names while dishing on “Fortnight” and “My Boy Only Breaks His Favorite Toys,” but she gave rare insight into the relationships that inspired them.

The Grammy winner said she “always imagined” the former took place in an “American town where the American Dream you thought would happen to you didn’t.”

She explained, “You ended up not with the person you loved and now you have to just live with that every day, wondering what would’ve been, maybe seeing them out.

“And that’s a pretty tragic concept, really,” Swift continued. “So I was just writing from that perspective.”

Taylor Swift is pulling back the curtain.

The pop star gave Amazon Music listeners commentary about five songs on her “very fatalistic” new album, “The Tortured Poets Department.”

“It’s about a dramatic, artistic, tragic kind of take on love and loss,” she shared.
