Summary

Welcome to New York is the first track from Taylor Swift’s first full pop album, 1989. She made a life change, jumped genres, and celebrated with this anthem to the great city of New York.

Some fans didn’t resonate with this song initially, especially those that chased their dreams to New York. How have people’s views shifted since the release of Taylor’s Version?

Plus, we check in with a superstar that left her life to follow her dreams in New York and see how she feels about the song! Check out Thee Queen Princess, dropping new music soon on Spotify! Follow along with her happenings @allyieldtothequeen.

And Taylor was making moves in order to protect other artists then, but it wasn’t well received at the time. Who remembers when she took her music off of streaming platforms?

Nick Adams, Ana Szabo, Amy Nichols and Lacey Gee break down this song, the stance Taylor Swift took against Apple Music, and more!
