Taylor Swift ft Dixie Chicks - Soon You'll Get Better
LCM Song Of The Day: ‘Soon You’ll Get Better’ - Taylor Swift ft Dixie Chicks
Our LCM featured track today is the beautifully written, very personal and reflective ‘Soon You’ll Get Better’ by Taylor Swift. It also features the excellent Dixie Chick who add wonderful harmonies. The track is taken from Taylor’s brand new recently released album ‘Lover’. The song is about Taylor watching her parents and especially her mom battle cancer.
During her YouTube Live Taylor revealed it was the hardest song to write. She said, "There’s a song called 'Soon You’ll Get Better' that was really, really hard to write. and it was a family decision to even put on the album, and I think songs like that that are really hard for you to write emotionally, maybe they’re hard to write and hard to sing because they’re really true. We as a family decided to put this on the album. It’s something I’m so proud of. I can’t sing it. It’s hard to emotionally deal with that song. You’ll understand what I mean in a couple of hours."
The song reveals the small details of Taylor’s experience ("The buttons of my coat were tangled in my hair / In doctor's office lighting, I didn't tell you I was scared") and how she's been coping ("Holy orange bottles, each night I pray to you / Desperate people find faith, so now I pray to Jesus too").
And I hate to make this all about me .
But who am I supposed to talk to?
What am I supposed to do
If there's no you?
Taylor comments “This album is very much a celebration of love, in all its complexity, coziness, and chaos. It’s the first album of mine that I’ve ever owned, and I couldn’t be more proud.”.
