“Absolutely love her and I really hope you love this song as much as I do.” Last week, she shared details [on Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/p/CjmXQ8dLsyo/) about her collaboration with singer Lana Del Rey on the song “Snow on the Beach.” “We chose to do it so the people first and foremost would listen to the music before dissecting the fact that we did it together,” he told Clarkson. “Like, if you were in the ‘Lavender Haze,’ that meant you were in that all-encompassing love glow, and I thought that was really beautiful,” she said. Alwyn also helped craft three songs on the “Folklore” follow-up album, “Evermore,” including the title track. ‘Midnights’ will be Swift’s fourth new album in as many years (six including her remakes of older LPs). “The fact that I get to exist at the same time as her is an honor and a privilege and the fact that she would be so generous as to collaborate with us on this song is something I’m going to be grateful for for life,” Swift said of Del Rey. “We did it under the name William Bowery. “My relationship for six years, we’ve had to dodge weird rumors, tabloid stuff, and we just ignore it.
