Pop superstar turned left-wing activist Taylor Swift has revealed that her upcoming song “Only the Young” was written in response to her disappointment in the 2018 midterm elections that saw Republicans take key seats in her home state of Tennessee and released to encourage young voters to get engaged in left-wing causes. “Only the Young” is set to be released in conjunction with the Netflix documentary Miss Americana, on Jan. 31. The documentary provides a look into Swift’s music career, trailing the singer over the course of a few years.
