Iga Swiatek Shares Her Favorite Taylor Swift Songs from 'The Tortured Poets Department'
Iga Swiatek: A Swiftie with a Playlist of Favorites from 'The Tortured Poets Department'
World No. 1 Iga Swiatek has shared her thoughts on Taylor Swift's latest album, "The Tortured Poets Department" (TTPD), revealing that she has a playlist of seven songs she particularly enjoys.
Swiatek, who is known for her love of Swift's music, listened to the album after her victory at the Porsche Tennis Grand Prix. She praised the album's lyrical complexity, noting that Swift focused more on the words than the music itself.
"I feel like the words are so complicated that she focused more on that than the music itself," Swiatek said. "It's less poppy. There's not much beat or whatever."
Despite her preference for the dreamlike production of Swift's previous albums, "Folklore" and "Evermore," Swiatek still appreciates the different vibe of TTPD.
"I feel like the melody is kind of adjusting to the words, if you know what I mean...but I like it. Totally different vibe than Midnights," she said.
Swiatek's favorite songs from the album include "So Long, London," "The Alchemist," "The Albatross," "Fortnight (featuring Post Malone)," "Florida!!! (featuring Florence and the Machine)," and "Chloe..."
"I'm not the best kind of Swiftie, but... Don't judge me!" she joked, acknowledging that she may not remember all the song titles perfectly.
Swiatek's love of Swift's music extends beyond her personal listening habits. She is also hoping to attend The Eras Tour in 2024, where Swift will perform songs from her entire career.
Swiatek's success on the tennis court has drawn comparisons to Swift's prolific excellence in the music industry. Coming into the seventh WTA 1000 tournament of the season, Swiatek has already won three Grand Slams and is the top seed in Rome.
As she aims for another "Fortnight" to remember in Rome, Swiatek will undoubtedly have Swift's music on her playlist, providing inspiration and motivation for her on-court performances.
