Sounds Like Charli XCX Wasn’t Rooting for Taylor and Matty


“Don’t wanna see her backstage at my boyfriend’s show.”

Charli seems to point the synthy K-hole freakout “Sympathy is a knife” directly at Taylor Swift, singing about someone ’s recent fling with someone in the 1975. “Don’t wanna see her backstage at my boyfriend’s show / Fingers crossed behind my back, I hope they break up,” sings Charli, who’s engaged to 1975 drummer George Daniel. “Don’t know if it’s real or if I’m spiraling.” In the chorus, she adds that she “couldn’t even be her if I tried.” Now, sure, that part could be a different girl, but also, Charli wouldn’t be the first woman in music to have complicated feelings about Swift.
