Travis Kelce has revealed his favorite song from his girlfriend Taylor Swift’s latest album, “The Tortured Poets Department.” The Kansas City Chiefs tight end, 34, shared his preference during an interview with People, highlighting the track “So High School,” which many speculate is about him.
Travis Kelce, a three-time Super Bowl champion, was asked to pick one song out of the 31 that Swift released on April 19. His choice, “So High School,” stands out from the impressive collection that includes 15 bonus tracks, bringing the total song count to a whopping 31.
While Swift’s 11th studio album delves into her past breakups with Joe Alwyn and Matty Healy, tracks like “So High School” and “The Alchemy” seemingly nod to her blossoming romance with Kelce. “The Alchemy,” in particular, features football references such as touchdowns, teams, warming benches, winning streaks, trophies, and cheers, along with a poignant bridge that appears to recount the moment Swift reunited with Kelce after his Super Bowl victory in February.
“Shirt’s off, and your friends lift you up over their heads / Beer stickin’ to the floor, cheers chanted ’cause they said,” Swift sings. “There was no chance trying to be the greatest in the league / Where’s the trophy? He just comes running over to me.”
A Nod to a 2016 Travis Kelce Interview
In “So High School,” Swift captures the excitement and innocence of a new romance, likening it to teenage love. The song also seemingly references a 2016 interview in which Travis Kelce was asked to choose between Swift, Katy Perry, and Ariana Grande in a game of “kiss, marry, or kill.” Kelce humorously chose to “kill” Grande, “marry” Perry, and “kiss” Swift, foreshadowing their current relationship.
“Are you gonna marry, kiss, or kill me (Kill me) / It’s just a game, but really (Really) / I’m bettin’ on all three for us two (All three),” Swift sings in the first verse of “So High School.”
Since publicly announcing their romance in September 2023, Kelce and Swift have been spotted enjoying various high-profile events together.
It’s clear that Taylor Swift’s “The Tortured Poets Department” is not just a musical triumph but also a personal testament to her relationship with Kelce. And with Kelce openly showing his support, their love story continues to capture the hearts of fans around the world.
