Taylor Swift on her new album.The boozer, which is based in Vauxhall, south London, is mentioned by the pop star in the song ‘The Black Dog’ from the extended ‘Anthology’ edition of ‘The Tortured Poets Department’.“And your location, you forgot to turn it off/ And so I watch as you walk/ Into some bar called The Black Dog/ And pierce new holes in my heart/ You forgot to turn it off,” Swift sings. “And it hits me/ I just don’t understand/ How you don’t miss me/ In The Black Dog….”The track is thought to address Swift’s ex-boyfriend Joe Alwyn, who lives in the same area as the pub (and inspired 2019’s ‘London Boy’).

The fifth track on all of Taylor Swift‘s albums are some of the most buzzed-about songs of her career as fans know they’re always the most devastating ones.

Well, this is interesting.

Don’t expect Joe Alwyn to react to The Tortured Poets Department like Matty Healy! His lips are sealed when it comes to Taylor Swift — permanently!

Oof! Poor Joe Alwyn!

slammed Taylor Swift on the heels of her “The Tortured Poets Department” album release.“She fascinates me as a sort of phenomenon because she is so popular,” Tennant, 68, said while speaking at the Guardian Live event “An Evening with Pet Shop Boys” in London on Monday, per The Independent.“I sort of like the whole thing but then think, ‘Where are the famous songs? What is Taylor Swift’s Billie Jean?'”He went on: “‘Shake it Off’? Is it though? I listened to that the other day and it is not ‘Billie Jean.’”Swift, 34, dropped her 11th studio album on April 19, which included a whopping 31 new songs seemingly about multiple ex-boyfriends, including Joe Alwyn, Matty Healy and John Mayer.Swift’s fans often theorize who she’s writing about with her lyrics and Easter eggs. She and Healy, 35, briefly dated last summer after her six-year relationship with Alwyn, 33, ended.

Chris Willman Senior Music Writer and Chief Music Critic There’s no golden ticket quite like the golden ticket of finding your name in the lyrics of a Taylor Swift song. It’s one thing if you’re Charlie Puth, and already on a list of Spotify’s 150 top monthly artists. But for another musical artist name-checked in Swift’s album “The Tortured Poets Department,” the impact stands to be much more impactful.

“The Tortured Poets Department,” which dropped Friday, the pop star, 34, seemingly admits that she was more emotionally wounded from her breakup with British actor Joe Alwyn than it seemed at the time. In her song “I Can Do It With a Broken Heart,” the 13th track on the album, Swift says that she was only pretending to be happy following their split, which took place just before she started her Eras tour last year.Lyrics supposedly about the “Conversations With Friends” star include: “Cause I’m a real tough kid, I can handle my s—t / They said, ‘Baby, gotta fake it till you make it,’ and I did / Lights, camera, bitch, smile, even when you wanna die / He said he’d love me all his life.”Swift, who has since moved on to NFL player Travis Kelce, 34, also says in the song that she was “shattered” while crowds chanted “more” from her. Swift dated Alwyn, 33, for six years, from 2016 to 2023.

Keleigh Sperry is over Joe Alwyn!

Taylor Swift’s ‘The Tortured Poets Department’ has been swamped by Swifties.Swift dropped the album yesterday (April 19), before later revealing that it is in fact a double album, sharing 15 additional tracks. She has also released the official video for the single ’Fortnight’, which features Post Malone.One unexpected side effect of the album’s release has seen hundreds of Swift fans flock to The Black Dog in Vauxhall, South London, after Swift sang about it on the song of the same name.“And your location, you forgot to turn it off / And so I watch as you walk / Into some bar called The Black Dog / And pierce new holes in my heart,” she sings.The song is thought to address her ex-boyfriend Joe Alwyn, who lives in the same area as the pub.The staff at The Black Dog are now frantically searching through their CCTV archives to try to find any evidence of either Swift or Alwyn visiting the premises in the past.A post shared by The Black Dog Vauxhall (@theblackdogvauxhall)“This is the Taylor Swift Effect – anything she touches goes viral,” said Amy Cowley, who works at the pub (via the Standard).

Swift dropped her highly anticipated album, “The Tortured Poets Department.” Betches Media shared an Instagram carousel of images with a meme of “Dance Moms” star Abby Lee Miller holding up pieces of paper listing some of Swift’s famous exes.As her current boyfriend, Travis Kelce, was at the top of the pyramid, Taylor Lautner, Harry Styles, Tom Hiddleston, Calvin Harris, Joe Alwyn, Jake Gyllenhaal and Matty Healy followed.Notably, Harris, Alwyn, Gyllenhaal and Healy were the four on the bottom.Even more, Swift “liked” a “Hunger Games” meme that jokingly showed Alwyn as a dead tribute in the franchise. “Every time we get a new lyric the hunger games cannon goes off,” the tweet that Betches Media shared read.Swift actually collaborated with The Civil Wars for The Hunger Games’ “Safe & Sound” in 2012.Swift and the Kansas City Chiefs tight end, meanwhile, began dating over the summer.

Taylor Swift‘s fans are always pouring over her lyrics for clues about her personal life, and things are no different with the release of her newest album, “The Tortured Poets Department.” Before her world-famous relationship with Travis Kelce that was debuted this year, Swift had a long-term romance with British actor Joe Alwyn, and then a relatively short rebound with Matty Healy, frontman of the 1975. Most of the material was written and recorded before Swift and Kelce became an item, so he isn’t a key player in the album, although he makes a key late entry, assuming no one else drove her to use football metaphors for the first time.

Taylor Swift has seemingly hinted at failed wedding plans with Joe Alwyn in her new album, where she also opens up about their emotional split. Rumours started swirling in April last year that Taylor and Joe had called it quits after six years together.

Chris Willman Senior Music Writer and Chief Music Critic The torture is over for fans who waited weeks and months for Taylor Swift’s “The Tortured Poets Department” to arrive. But the truly faithful still have some work ahead, in trying to decode what or who is the subject of each of the 16 songs (plus four bonus tracks).

Taylor Swift has a long history of writing about her exes on her albums — or so we think — from John Mayer and Jake Gyllenhaal to Joe Jonas and Harry Styles.But it’s Joe Alwyn, the British actor who the singer dated from 2016 to 2023, who is the object of the 34-year-old pop superstar’s wicked wordplay for a good — or for him, not so good — part of “The Tortured Poets Department,” which dropped on Friday.There’s even one song called “So Long, London” — a goodbye to the city where they once lived together. And just to show you how deep those Swift Easter eggs can be hidden, that track is 9 minutes and 28 seconds — which happens to line up with when the exes are rumored to have started dating on Sept.
