  • "Actually Romantic" is a song about
    Realizing that someone else has kind of had a one-sided adversarial relationship with you
    That you didn't know about
    And all of a sudden they start, like, doin' too much
    And they start letting you know that actually
    You've been living in their head rent-free and you had no idea
    And it's presenting itself as them sort of resenting you or having a problem with you
    But, um, taking that and um, you just accepting it as love
    And you accepting it as attention and affection
    And how flattering that somebody has made you such a big part of their reality
    When you didn't even think about this
    It's actually pretty romantic, if you, if you really, really think about it Writer/s: Johan Schuster, Martin Max, Taylor Swift
