The video for "Christmas Tree Farm" shows a compilation of the Swift family's seasonal home movies. "Christmas Tree Farm," released Thursday, comes with a shiny music video -- compiled from the Swift family's festive home movies from years gone by. More than anything, the video seems to serve as an ode to Swift's strong Christmas fashion choices -- the movies show the infant Swift in an array of winter gear, from cute knitted hats to retro patterned sweaters and an array of padded ski suits. Scenes from the video show Swift sledding, frolicking in the snow, sitting on 's lap and peeking out from a play house. The home movie compilation also captures the moment when Swift opens what was surely her favorite gift that year -- a guitar.

Who better to write a poppy Christmas anthem than Taylor Swift – she did grow up on a Christmas tree farm, after all. The singer dropped her newest holiday single "Christmas Tree Farm" on Thursday night along with a music video that is giving fans an intimate glimpse of her childhood.
Swift was born in Reading, Pennsylvania, and spent her early years living on an actual Christmas tree farm before moving and trying her luck as a country singer in Nashville – we all know how that turned out.
The music video is a compilation of Swift home movies from their days on the farm. The video shows a toddler Taylor sledding in the snow, and the now-famous singer opening up her first acoustic guitar on Christmas morning.

Taylor Swift may have set a “Farm”-to-market land speed record with the release of “Christmas Tree Farm” Thursday night, just four days after the tune was written, and with much less time than that since it was lushly orchestrated for maximum holiday glee. The biggest revelation of the accompanying video — at least for anyone who hasn’t seen any of her family home movies before? Maybe just that 3-year-old Swift looks almost identical to 29-year-old Swift, as facial expressions go. And that Swift really did grow up on a Pennsylvania Christmas tree farm after all, despite conspiracy theorists who prefer to believe that she was raised by a cabal of Rockefellers. Also: collies and snow are an irresistible combination. But you knew that. Her homey and hearth-y song was released to digital services at midnight Thursday, while Swift’s fans were definitely not tucked asleep in their beds, as they’d been tipped off to her release by an announcement on “Good Morning America” earlier in the day. And we do mean her release. The end title card on the music video reads simply “© 2019 Taylor Swift,” which is exactly the way the record company credit reads when you look the song up on iTunes. In other words, her contract with Republic allows her to put at least some of her masters out there on the market immediately, without any label middleman, if the holiday whim strikes her. From the description of things, this was very whim-ish. According to her camp, Swift really did write the song just this past Sunday, December 1. It sounds less spontaneous than that, given the strings and gospel singers that appear on the tune, which Swift wrote solo and co-produced with Jimmy Napes (best known as Sam Smith’s collaborator). But if anyone can acquire a choir and orchestration on the spur of the moment, it would be Swift — who apparently was not fictionalizing the part about missing home, since credits show she recorded it far, far from firs at London Lane Studios in the UK (which is at least a home for the transatlantically smitten singer for the holidays). Swift seemed overdue for a holiday release, since she’s done a lot of maturing since “The Taylor Swift Holiday Collection” was released between her first and second albums in 2007. But “Christmas Tree Farm” harks back to an even less seasoned period in her life than that… although she can’t resist rhyming one grown-up Christmas list item, “mistakes are forgiven,” with “sweet dreams of holly and ribbon.” With its vintage VHS footage of frolicking dogs as well as tots, the video seems to be cat-free. But don’t get too used to that for Christmas.
