Taylor Swift has a history of dating Brits - from Harry Styles to Calvin Harris to Tom Hiddleston. Here, she sings about her love for another guy from the other side of the pond, Joe Alwyn. You know I love a London boy I enjoy walking Camden Market in the afternoon He likes my American smile, like a child when our eyes meet Darling, I fancy you Swift' adopts an English accent to deliver the line, "Darling, I fancy you."
Joe Alwyn was raised in Tufnell Park and Crouch End in North London, so he is truly a London boy. During this paean to Swift's boyfriend and his home city, the singer talks about her love for such quintessentially English activities as having high tea, strolling around Camden Market, and watching rugby in pubs.
The song opens with an audio clip sampled from James Corden's March 2017 interview with the actor Idris Elba on The Late Late Show. Elba talks about a charity auction where he offered the chance for a donor to go on a date with him. Both Elba and Corden are London boys.
