She started off the Instagram video by introducing the track: " I can’t get through that sentence without grinning because I’m such a big fan of Lana Del Rey."

Later on, in the clip she showered the 'Video Game' musician with adoration, saying: “Lana Del Rey, in my opinion, is one of the best musical artists ever, and the fact that I get to exist at the same time as her is an honour and a privilege."

Taylor continued: "And the fact that she would be so generous as to collaborate with us on this song is something I’m gonna be grateful for – for life!"

"Absolutely love her," an over-joyed Swift said.

The pop icon introduced the moody-sounding song, revealing that it's “about falling in love with someone at the same time as they’re falling in love with you."

In true Taylor fashion, she eloquently described the track: "Sort of in this sort of cataclysmic, fated moment where you realise someone feels exactly the same way that you feel."

We're hooked already!

The 32-year-old explained the meaning behind the track title: "'Wait, is this real? Is this a dream?’… Kind of like it would be if you were to see snow falling on a beach.”

The video is the latest in a series of 'Behind The Song' segments Taylor has been releasing as the 'Midnights' release date approaches, so far we've been treated to videos about track one, 'Lavendar Haze', and track three, 'Anti-Hero' – so just 10 more to go!
