Matty Healy Thinks Making Next The 1975 Album About Taylor Swift Would Be “Obvious” And “Not Interesting”

During a recent appearance on the Doomscroll podcast, The 1975 frontman Matty Healy opened up about his recent high profile relationship with Taylor Swift, and shared his thoughts about potentially writing songs specifically about her. “Last year, I became a way more well-known public figure for loads of different reasons,” Healy admits, referring to a time when he was in the headlines for dating Swift, as well as making controversial remarks about Ice Spice and kissing his bandmate during a show in Malaysia that caused the entire festival to be canceled. “I think that a lot of artists, they become very interested in their lore,” Healy continued. “I think that that’s an obvious thing to draw from. And I’m just not interested in it. The idea of making a record about something that personally happened to me, that by the time I put it out is gonna be like two years old, it’s not interesting.” (Rolling Stone)
