Taylor Swift took to Instagram today (July 22) to announce a live stream, set to take place at 5:00 pm. ET tomorrow (July 23).
"I have some stuff I’m reeeeeally excited to tell you about, including some info on this Easter egg right here," wrote Swift, referring to the Instagram in question: a GIF from her viral "You Need To Calm Down" music video, which depicts an arrow barreling into a target with the number 5 on its bullseye.
In the video, Hayley Kiyoko fires the arrow in question. Could a Swift-Kiyoko collaboration be on the way?
Hayley Kiyoko dropped “I Wish,” her first new song since her 2018 debut LP Expectations. The song arrived with Kiyoko’s self-directed, magical video.
The video opens with a girl in a plaid school uniform running up the stairs of her home. There, her friends sit in circle as the girl pulls out a bottle from her backpack. “It’s like I don’t exist to her anymore,” Kiyoko states from her seat in the circle. She details how the girl she likes has become distant then drinks from the bottle her friend brought. Kiyoko subsequently passes out, but as the song starts up she and her friends begin dancing and she sees her crush in the doorway. When she comes to, the crush vanishes.

 After telling fans on social media that she had another big announcement coming, the singer went live on Instagram Tuesday to reveal all the details about "The Archer," the fifth track off her upcoming Lover album. After confirming the song's official title, Swift explained that she teamed up with her longtime collaborator, Jack Antonoff, again to produce the sure-to-be catchy record. The two previously worked together on tracks like "Sweeter Than Fiction," "Out of the Woods" and "Look What You Made Me Do." "Track five is kind of a tradition that really started with you guys. Instinctively I was putting a very vulnerable, personal, honest and emotional song on track five," Swift -- who was on the set of a new music video -- explained before releasing it worldwide for fans to listen to. www.instagram.com/tv/B0RkMK8BDcf/ |

Taylor Swift released a new song off her upcoming album, Lover, on Tuesday, July 23. Titled "The Archer," the track is a departure from the first two singles she's put out from Lover, "ME!" and "You Need to Calm Down." The song is subdued and synthy, and packed with some pretty gut-wrenching lyrics. Interestingly, "The Archer" is track number five off Lover, which is significant if you know anything about Taylor Swift's music. The pop icon has historically made the fifth song off her albums emotional, vulnerable, and deeply personal. (Please see: "Delicate," "Dear John," and, of course, "All Too Well.") This was unintentional at first, but Swift has since caught on and now makes deliberate choices for her fifth tracks.  "So track five is kind of a tradition that really started with you guys because I didn’t realize I was doing this," Swift said Tuesday on an Instagram live-stream. "But instinctually I was putting a very vulnerable, honest, emotional song as track five. So because you noticed this, I started to put the songs that were honest, emotional, vulnerable, and personal as track five." "The Archer" is all of those things. "I've been the archer, I've been the prey/Who could ever leave me, darling/But who could stay," she sings in the chorus, which some fans are reading as a nod to her boyfriend, Joe Alwyn. They say he is the one who has stayed with her. |

 No: Taylor Swift, “Archer” - I don’t hate this song, nor do I think there is anything particularly objectionable about it. In fact, I still think no one writes a bridge like Taylor Swift, and that’s when she drops my fave lyrical line in “The Archer”: “They see right through me/Can you see right through me?/I see right through me.” However, the song is lost, to the point where most people I spoke to at the end of this week forgot she released a song in the first place. This is undeniably the result of Jack Antonoff production. He needs to stop. —Maria Sherman |
