We are celebrating the many milestones of Taylor Swift and right now we're looking at her album 1989 which is celebrating its fourth year of release and I remember when she released the first single off this album, Shake It Off, people went nuts. It was so different for Taylor and yet it was such an amazing song. And the video, I mean let's talk about that video. So fun, so hilarious. I loved her in the ballerina outfit and Taylor explains what Shake It Off is all about to her. Shake It Off is a song that I wrote about having to deal with on an everyday basis just kind of human beings treat each other. It's not just me who has to deal with it. It's everybody out there living their lives. You know the feeling of humiliation is the same when a girl has a rumor spread around about her at school that isn't true. It's the same feeling I feel when I am checking out of the grocery store and I read some crazy headline about me. And I think that the way we have to deal with those issues is the same. You have to learn to have a sense of humor about things after a while or else you'll just live in an endless sea of resentment and bitterness and why are people doing this to me. And rather than writing a song that was victimized in nature, I wanted to write a song that was joyful and gives people a way to cope with whatever amounts of ridiculousness life is doling out to them but also makes them want to dance. Yeah this song definitely makes you want to dance. It's Shake It Off off 1989 on Big Machine Radio.
