Taylor Swift is honoring her longtime friend and musical collaborator Jack Antonoff.
On Sunday (Oct. 29), the pop superstar shared a heartwarming message on social media in appreciation of the Grammy-winning producer, whom she’s partnered with on numerous popular songs over the years, including 2013 track “Sweeter Than Fiction.”
“There you’ll stand ten feet tall, I will say ‘I knew it all along,’” Swift captioned photos on Instagram of herself embracing Antonoff. “This song has always made me think of my friend Jack. It was the first song we made together and watching him challenge himself and make beautiful art over the years has been the thrill of a lifetime. How can he be 6 years older than me and also somehow still be my precocious young son? We may never know.”
Swift concluded her post by alerting Swifties that “Sweeter Than Fiction (My Version)” is available exclusively at Target on Tangerine vinyl.
“Sweeter Than Fiction,” which was co-written with Antonoff, reached No. 34 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart in 2013. The peppy rock-tinged song appeared on the soundtrack for British film One Chance.
Antonoff recently opened up about his journey with the superstar in a new interview with Today‘s Willie Geist.
“I could quantify our relationship in very reductive ways about the things we agree on, the sounds we like. But the truth is, we’ve just grown together. She put an amazing amount of belief in me. And it’s powerful,” he said.
Antonoff also shared his thoughts on working with Swift to Billboard. “When I work with Taylor, there’s still just this person who has these life experiences and this remarkable gift of writing about them,” he explained.
Meanwhile, Swift’s 1989 (Taylor’s Version) is already off to a big start after its first day of release on Friday (Oct. 27). The singer’s fourth re-recorded album sold more than 250,000 copies in the U.S. on in the first 24 hours of release, according to initial reports to data tracking firm Luminate. Further news of initial sales, streaming and track-equivalent activity for the album will be reported in the coming days.
