Taylor Swift Dances to The Darkness in New Apple Music Ad

Singer Taylor Swift has tweeted a new Apple Music ad ā€“ and this one sees her dancing without a care in the world in her living room to The Darknessā€™ ā€œI Believe In A Thing Called Loveā€.

The commercial opens with Swift checking out a playlist titled ā€œFriday Night Rocks!ā€ in the Music appā€™s For You section, which provides personalised song recommendations to the user. It isn’t long before the track she then plays leads her to completely lose herself to the musicā€¦

The closing tag line is ā€œDance like no oneā€™s watchingā€ ā€“ and itā€™s a recommendation that we would have to concur with. This certainly isnā€™t the first Apple Music commercial in which Swift has taken a starring role, and itā€™s also unlikely to be the lastā€¦

Last month, Apple Music head of content Larry Jackson hinted to Co.Create that, over a period of several weeks, we could see a succession of other Apple Music ads with the ā€œShake It Offā€ songbird at the forefront. He described the intended strategy as ā€œspot comes out, hype dies down two weeks later, then out comes another spot, same thing happens, then drop the next one.ā€
