Taylor Swift and Jack Antonoff Recreate Famous Viral Behind-the-Scenes Moment From the Making of Reputation

Nothing good starts in a getaway car, except for a Taylor Swift and Jack Antonoff collaboration.

Amid the news that Swift, 35, purchased her original masters from Shamrock Capital, six years after her catalog was sold to Scooter Braun, her longtime collaborator joined her in celebrating the news on Friday, May 30.

Antonoff, 41, and Swift re-created the famously viral moment in which they made the Reputation track “Getaway Car.” The clip saw viral fame online several years ago, leading to the continued success of the Reputation deep cut. Swift’s work with Antonoff marked a transition into synth pop, a stark contrast to her early country and retro-pop sound.

In the new video, posted to X, Swift mimes along to the lyrics of “Getaway Car,” while holding her Scottish Fold cat Meredith. Antonoff sings along to the lyric “I’m in a getaway car,” before Swift sets Meredith down to jump and scream along to the lyrics “That was the last time you ever saw me” with her fellow musician.

Swift wore a cozy grey sweatshirt in the video, while Antonoff wore a black varsity style merch jacket for his solo project Bleachers.

The initial video saw viral fame in part because it offered one of the first glimpses at Swift’s time working with Antonoff as a producer on an album. Antonoff co-produced two tracks on Swift’s 1989, “I Wish You Would” and “You Are In Love,” before making even more contributions to Reputation.

The Grammy-winning duo would go on to collaborate on Lover, folklore, evermore, Midnights, The Tortured Poets Department, Fearless (Taylor’s Version), Red (Taylor’s Version), Speak Now (Taylor’s Version) and 1989 (Taylor’s Version). These collaborations expanded beyond Antonoff’s signature synth-pop sound, notably on the folksy summer classic “august” from folklore.

The 14-time Grammy winner announced in an Instagram post that she regained control of her first six albums, directing fans to a handwritten letter posted to her website.

“Hi. I’m trying to gather my thoughts into something coherent, but right now my mind is just a slideshow,” Swift wrote. “A flashback sequence of all the times I daydreamed about, wished for, and pined away for a chance to get to tell you this news. All the times I was thiiiiiiiiiiiiis close, reaching out for it, only for it to fall through. I almost stopped thinking it could ever happen, after 20 years of having the carrot dangled then yanked away. But that’s all in the past now.”

Swift now owns all of her original work. In the letter, she confirmed that she has already finished re-recording her 2006 self-titled debut album and has less than a quarter of Reputation re-recorded.

“Those 2 albums can still have their moments to re-emerge when the time is right, if that would be something you guys would be excited about,” Swift wrote. “But if it happens, it won’t be from a place of sadness and longing for what I wish I could have. It will just be a celebration now.”
