Taylor said about the video: "When they first reached out about the video, all I knew was that he wanted me to dance. At that point he didnt have to tell me twice. "Our music studio has this room for office storage and so I went in there and I played the song in this room super loud and Im already dancing and rehearsing. "I didnt even know what the treatment was but I recorded that rehearsal and sent them the video. We later all had a meeting and went over different ideas and the inspiration for the video."
