Taylor Swift's 'Glitch' Remix Turns Heartbreak into Happily Ever After
4 Oct
Summary
- Taylor Swift's new album 'The Life of a Showgirl' features a song 'Wi$h Li$t' that echoes her 2022 track 'Glitch'
- 'Glitch' was about questioning destiny, while 'Wi$h Li$t' is about claiming it
- Taylor and NFL star Travis Kelce announced their engagement on August 26, 2025
In October 2025, Taylor Swift released her 12th studio album 'The Life of a Showgirl', sending her devoted Swifties into a frenzy. The 12-track album is packed with hits, but one song in particular has everyone talking: 'Wi$h Li$t'.
The song's beat sounds awfully familiar to fans who have been following Taylor's 'Midnights' era. The line "I want you" from 'Wi$h Li$t' bears a striking resemblance to "I think there's been a glitch" from her 2022 track 'Glitch'. While 'Glitch' was rumored to be about Taylor's then-boyfriend Joe Alwyn, reflecting a rare moment of optimism amid heartbreak, 'Wi$h Li$t' takes that same "glitch" and turns it into a confident declaration of love.
Fans believe Taylor intentionally reused the beat as a subtle nod to her past, transforming pain into power. 'Glitch' was about questioning destiny, but 'Wi$h Li$t' is about claiming it. It's a musical full-circle moment, one that Taylor is living out in real life.
On August 26, 2025, Taylor and NFL star Travis Kelce announced their engagement, breaking the internet with their joyful news. The couple's post became an instant Instagram record, with over 37 million likes. When 'The Life of a Showgirl' dropped just over a month later, Spotify reportedly crashed within minutes as Swifties rushed to stream the new album.
From 'Glitch' to 'Wi$h Li$t', Taylor Swift has proven that love stories don't just end - sometimes, they get a remix, and this one's set to the happiest beat yet.
