Taylor Swift Returns To Country Music With The Most Taylor Swift Song, Ever

If you thought that Taylor Swift was spending the second half of 2016 just hanging out with her cats, then you were very, very wrong. The 26-year-old musician has secretly been in the studio flexing her songwriting muscles, and she has a brand-new country tune to prove it, as Rolling Stone reports. The only thing is, even though Swift is responsible for the lyrics and melody, it isn't her song — but it does have her fingerprints all over it. Swift wrote the song "Better Man" for the popular country group Little Big Town. The track is about a woman hung up on a man she knows is not worth her time. She stays up late at night begging for him to...yes, be a better man. The group's frontwoman, Karen Fairchild, sings, "I wish it wasn’t 4 a.m. standing in the mirror / Saying to myself, you know you had to do it / I know the bravest thing I ever did was run." It's hard to not imagine the words pouring straight from Swift's mouth. Is this a preview of the comeback album Swift has in store for us? Let's hope. Check out the video, below.
