Taylor Swift Releases New Version of "Anti-Hero" Ft. Bleachers

Taylor Swift teamed up with Jack Antonoff’s solo project Bleachers, on a new version of Midnights' track “Anti-Hero”.

In the new version, Antonoff takes over the second verse, altering the viral “sexy baby” lyric to “art bro”.

The lyrics say, “Sometimes I feel like everybody is an art bro lately / And I just judge them on the hill / To hard to hang out talking s— about your famous baby / Pierce through the heart of 90s guilt.”

Meanwhile, in the pre-chorus Swift says, “Did you hear my covert narcissism I disguise as altruism / Like some kind of congressman,” before Antonoff assures her, “Taylor, you’ll be fine.”

In a post shared to Twitter announcing the new collaboration, Swift captioned a photo of the Grammy-winning duo, “Jack’s version of ‘sexy baby’ is ‘art bro’ and we sincerely hope it confuses just as many people.”

Antonoff is credited with co-writing 11 of the 13 songs of Swift’s 10th studio album "Midnights", including the original track of “Anti-Hero”.

In an Instagram post, Swift elaborated on the duo working on the project. 

“We’d been toying with ideas and had written a few things we loved, but Midnights actually really coalesced and flowed out of us when our partners (both actors) did a film together in Panama,” she noted. 

“Jack and I found ourselves back in New York, alone, recording every night, staying up late and exploring old memories and midnights past.”
