who is long live by taylor swift about
Long Live (Taylor Swift song) The song's lyrics celebrate moments of triumph[4] in the narrator's life, including collecting awards and being crowned (prom) kings and queens, and indirectly bring into question what others will remember of those times later on. Dave Heaton of PopMatters described "Long Live" as an "anthem of defiance", similar to Fearless album-ender "Change".[4] In an explanation of the song's meaning on her website, Swift called the song a "love song... written to my team".[5]
