"Lover" is a song written and recorded by American singer-songwriter Taylor Swift for her seventh studio album of the same name (2019). Swift produced the song with Jack Antonoff, and it was released on August 16, 2019, by Republic Records as the third single from the album. "Lover" is a country, indie folk and pop ballad that features a booming snare, slow tempo and guitar-centric sound. Over a retro-styled musical motif, Swift sings lyrics about devotion to her partner, in this case, English actor Joe Alwyn. The song received universal acclaim from critics, who praised its nostalgic quality and Swift's songwriting. In the US, the song peaked at number ten on the Billboard Hot 100, becoming the album's third consecutive top ten single on the Hot 100. It also entered the top ten in Australia, Canada, Ireland, Malaysia, New Zealand and Singapore. The song received a nomination for Song of the Year at the 62nd Grammy Awards. The music video for "Lover" was directed by Swift and Drew Kirsch, and features dancer Christian Owens as Swift's love interest. Premiering on August 22, 2019, the video is set in brightly colored rooms and a dollhouse, and shows the couple fighting and making up. Swift performed the song at the 2019 MTV Video Music Awards.more »
