Jack Antonoff Praises Taylor Swift's "Very Honest" Songwriting Skills

fun.'s Jack Antonoff has had a killer year with the debut of his new project, Bleachers, but he's also working with some of the biggest names in pop on some of the most talked about records of 2014. Antonoff recently teamed up with pal Taylor Swift for "Out of the Woods" and other tracks on 1989. The friends had never worked together before, but it was a musical match made in heaven right off the bat from the sounds of it.

"We did three songs on the album together," he tells Fuse's Yasmine Richards in between sets at the Voodoo Music Experience. "They came from just hanging out and talking about music. It came from our love of Yaz's 'Only You.' That's the first thing we talked about." Given the record's title and the epicness of the '80s power ballad, it's not surprising that they found inspiration in that particular place!
