       week  in  September  2014  and  won

       Favorite  Song  at  the 2015  People's
       Choice Awards. The song is about self-

       referential  that  Swift  mentions  to  her

       haters, her  critics,  her serial  dating
       habits,  and  how  she  reacts  to  what

       people say about her. She does not care
                                                                  In an interview, Swift explained the story

       following lyric;                                    she wrote about having to deal with on everyday
                                                           basis. It is kind of how human beings treat each
                                                           other. It’s not just her who has to deal with it; it
        “'Cause the players gonna play, play,
                                                           is  everybody  out  there  living  their  lives.  The
        play, play, play / And the haters                  feeling of humiliation is the same, when a girl has

        gonna hate, hate, hate, hate, hate /               a rumor spread around about her at school is not

        Baby, I'm just gonna shake, shake,                 true,  it  is  the  same  feeling  she  feels  when  she
                                                           reads  some  crazy  headlines  about  herself.  She
        shake, shake, shake / I shake it off, I
                                                           thinks that the way we have to deal with those
        shake it off.”                                     issues is the same. You have to learn to have a
                                                           sense of humor about things after a while. She
        Best anthem! People say whatever they              wanted to write a song that was joyful and give

        want to say, but how you react to what             people way to cope with whatever problems they

        they say is what truly matters. Don’t let          could  encounter  but  also  makes  them  want  to
                                                           dance”.
