N.J. rock legend thanks Taylor Swift for shout-out on new album ‘Tortured Poets’
Taylor Swift mentions Patti Smith in her new album “The Tortured Poets Department” in the song title of the same name — and the legendary Jersey-born singer-songwriter has responded. In the song, Swift sings: “I laughed in your face and said, ‘You’re not Dylan Thomas, I’m not Patti Smith’ / This ain’t the Chelsea Hotel, we’re modern idiots.”
