Joe Jonas


July - September 2008 (Forever & AlwaysJump Then Fall, Today Was A Fairytale, Better Than Revenge, Last Kiss)

Joe of the Jonas Brothers dated Taylor during the summer of 2008. After breaking up with her over an infamous 27-second phone call, she penned Forever & Always, a last minute addition to her album Fearless. In response, Joe wrote the song Much Better, which compares Taylor to his newer and "better" then-girlfriend Camilla Belle. In Speak Now, Taylor angrily addresses her in Better Than Revenge and desperately remembers Joe in Last Kiss. Although Today Was A Fairytale was written during the summer of 2008, she did not release the song until the soundtrack for her film Valentine's Day came out. It is also assumed that Jump Then Fall (from the Fearless platinum edition) refers to him as well.

Better Than Revenge (Speak Now)

Hidden Message: You Thought I Would Forget

Taylor doesn’t write much about her female interactions, with the sweet exception of her and best friend Abigail’s coming-of-age tale Fifteen; however, Better Than Revenge defies this habit and is not-so-nicely directed at fellow Hollywood starlet Camilla Belle. The pointed chorus chimes she's an actress/ better known for the things she does on the mattress. Swift hauntingly concludes with, You might have him, but haven't you heard?/ You might have him, but I always get the last word. This fiery anthem expresses Swift’s emotions loud and clear and will undoubtedly force nasty girls to think twice before messing with her or her man. By the time Speak Now came out, Belle’s relationship with Tay’s beloved ex Joe Jonas had already run its course. That guy certainly gets around.
