Travis Kelce<\/a> is sharing his thoughts on\u00a0\u201cWood,\u201d\u00a0one of the most buzzed-about songs on fianc\u00e9e Taylor Swift<\/a>\u2019s new album, \u201cThe Life of a Showgirl.\u201d<\/p>\n On Wednesday\u2019s episode of the \u201cNew Heights\u201d podcast<\/a>,\u00a0the NFL player kept his cool while discussing the track with his brother,\u00a0Jason Kelce.<\/p>\n Buzz: ‘Love Is Blind’ Is Back. Here’s Everything That Happened In The Pods.<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n \u201cIt\u2019s a great song,\u201d he said curtly.<\/p>\n True to form, Jason Kelce wasn\u2019t about to let his sibling off that easily. The lyrics of \u201cWood\u201d\u00a0feature a number of not-so-subtle sexual innuendos,\u00a0with Swift alluding to a lover\u2019s\u00a0\u201cRedwood tree\u201d and\u00a0\u201cmagic wand.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cGirls, I don\u2019t need to catch the bouquet … to know a hard rock is on the way,\u201d\u00a0the 14-time Grammy winner sings on one of the verses<\/a>, before coming in on the chorus with:\u00a0\u201cHis love was the key that opened my thighs.\u201d<\/p>\n And as if to minimize any doubt that \u201cWood\u201d is about Travis Kelce, Swift even name-drops her fianc\u00e9\u2019s podcast with a cheeky line about the\u00a0\u201cnew heights of manhood.\u201d<\/p>\n Still, when Jason Kelce asked if \u201cWood\u201d made him feel \u201ccocky\u201d in any way, specifically given its nods to an\u00a0\u201cappendage,\u201d\u00a0Travis Kelce shrugged off the implication.<\/p>\n \u201cI love that girl, so what do you mean?\u201d he said. \u201cAny song that she would reference me in that way … I think you\u2019re not understanding the song. No way.\u201d<\/p>\n Similarly, Swift herself has downplayed much of the speculation about \u201cWood,\u201d describing it as a \u201cvery sentimental love song\u201d that references \u201cpopular superstitions.\u201d<\/p>\n Buzz: Jimmy Kimmel Torches Trump’s Jeffrey Epstein Denial With Damning Supercut Video<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n \u201cI brought this into the studio, and I was like, \u2018I want to do a throwback, kind of timeless-sounding song,\u2019 and I have this idea about, like, \u2018I ain\u2019t gotta knock on wood,\u2019 and we would knock on wood, and it would be all these superstitions,\u201d she said in an appearance on \u201cThe Tonight Show\u201d<\/a> this week.\u00a0\u201cAnd it really started out in a very innocent place. You know, it started out\u2026 I don\u2019t know what happened, man.\u201d<\/p>\n Not surprisingly, \u201cThe Life of a Showgirl\u201d\u00a0hit the cultural zeitgeist jackpot after its release last week.\u00a0According to Billboard, the album sold 3.5 million copies in its first week, shattering a record<\/a> previously held by Adele\u2019s \u201c25.\u201d\u00a0An accompanying big-screen film, \u201cTaylor Swift: The Official Release Party of a Showgirl,\u201d came in at No. 1<\/a> at the box office last weekend.<\/p>\n Still, reviews have been startlingly mixed<\/a>, particularly when compared to many of Swift\u2019s recent releases.\u00a0Though Rolling Stone hailed<\/a> Swift\u2019s\u00a0\u201cnew, exciting sonic turns\u201d and \u201cincisive storytelling,\u201d\u00a0The London Evening Standard likened it to<\/a>\u00a0\u201cparody\u201d that was \u201challucinated by some porn-addled AI.\u201d<\/p>\nRelated…<\/h3>\n
