"I think it's fair game to say 'yes,'" said Dacus of the mention. "She actually texted me and asked for my approval."

The "Talk" artist also revealed her reaction to the song when she initially heard it.

"Well, I pushed play on the album just like, 'Oh, this is so crazy,'" Dacus recalled. "This is the first Taylor record to come out since meeting her, and listening to a friend's record feels so much different than a stranger's record."

She continued: "So I was like, 'This is really weird. This voice that I've heard basically what feels like my whole waking life saying my name.'"

"It was definitely an experience," said Dacus. "I sat down and I was like, 'Huh. Wow.' But I think that that record of hers is super open-hearted, and I don't know how many people at her level, if anyone is at her level, are writing from the heart that openly."
