After collaborating with Aaron Dessner and Justin Vernon on 2020’s folklore and evermore, Taylor Swift took the natural next step and featured on the duo’s Big Red Machine project. Recorded in the same breath as folklore’s Grammy win, “Renegade” shares the thoughtfulness of Swift’s 2020 songwriting renaissance but leaves her words wandering in Dessner and Vernon’s exploratory landscape.

在2020年專輯《folklore》和《evermore》中與Aaron Dessner和Justin Vernon合作后，Taylor Swift自然地邁出了下一步，參與了二人組合的Big Red Machine項(xiàng)目。歌曲在《folklore》贏得格萊美時(shí)同期錄制，盡管《Renagade》傳達(dá)了Taylor Swift 2020歌曲創(chuàng)作復(fù)興的想法，但她的歌詞也在Aaron Dessner和Justin Vernon的探索領(lǐng)域中靈活徘徊。

The relationship at the heart of “Renegade” is claustrophobic and tangled in anxiety to the point of mutual destruction. “Is it insensitive for me to say, ‘Get your shit together so I can love you?’” Swift sings, her wordy outpour punctuated by a little squiggle of an acoustic riff. “Is it really your anxiety that stops you from giving me everything?/Or do you just not want to?” “Renegade” is a ball of frustration and indecision, but the composition is bright and warm, and Vernon’s harmonies make the whole thing less lonely. Even Swift’s characteristically sharp barbs are coated in empathy: “You fire off missiles because you hate yourself/But do you know you’re demolishing me?” By the end of “Renegade,” Vernon and Swift’s dueling harmonies twirl together into a cocoon of confusion.

《Renagede》的核心關(guān)系是幽閉恐懼癥，相互毀滅程度的焦慮中糾結(jié)不定，“Is it insensitive for me to say, ‘Get your shit together so I can love you?’”Taylor唱道，借著隨性的人聲循環(huán)樂段 她啰嗦滔滔不絕地說(shuō)道“Is it really your anxiety that stops you from giving me everything?/Or do you just not want to?” 盡管《Renagade》充滿了各種挫折和猶豫不決，但曲子是光明溫暖的，Justin Vernon的和音是整首歌不那么孤獨(dú)，就連Taylor特有的尖酸諷刺也帶著同情味：“You fire off missiles because you hate yourself/But do you know you’re demolishing me?”歌曲結(jié)尾，Justin Vernon與Taylor Swift的合唱和聲旋轉(zhuǎn)交織在一起，結(jié)成一個(gè)困惑的繭。
