When writing music, Matty Healy would rather not touch on his personal life.
During an appearance on Joshua Citarella’s Doomscroll podcast on Tuesday, Oct. 22, The 1975 frontman revealed his thoughts on writing songs about previous relationships.
&#8220;Last year I became a way more well-known public figure for loads of different reasons. The only reason that I was interested in is kind of like, what I was doing,&#8221; Healy, 35, who dated Taylor Swift for a few months in 2023, said.
&#8220;So I think that a lot of artists, they become very interested in their lore, or they become interested in the things that have happened outside of their art that people know about, and they want to address that,&#8221; he continued. &#8220;And fair enough, do you know what I mean?&#8221;

On The 1975&#8217;s first record, Healy was more open to writing about heartbreak and &#8220;all these stories about relationships&#8221; — but he doesn&#8217;t feel the need to do that anymore.
&#8220;I would kind of just be lying if I made a record about, I don’t know, all the stuff that was said about me or my casual romantic liaisons or whatever it may be that I’ve kind of become known for, just because I was famous,&#8221; he said.
&#8220;I think that that’s an obvious thing to draw from. And I’m just not interested in it. And I think like, the maintenance of the status quo is something that I always fight against,&#8221; he continued. &#8220;So the idea of making a record about something that personally happened to me, that by the time I put it out is gonna be like two years old, I see people doing that as well, and it’s not interesting.&#8221;
While Healy is choosing to keep his relationships out of his song lyrics, Swift, 34, detailed their short-lived romance on her latest studio album The Tortured Poets Department. The singer-songwriter seemingly sings about him on songs including &#8220;Guilty as Sin?,&#8221; &#8220;Fresh Out the Slammer,&#8221; &#8220;I Can Fix Him (No Really I Can)&#8221; and &#8220;loml.&#8221;
On &#8220;loml,&#8221; Swift seemingly revealed their relationship was not meant to last as she sang about rekindling an old flame, only to see the romance crash and burn.
“It was legendary / It was momentary / It was unnecessary / Should’ve let it stay buried,” she sings. “Oh what a valiant roar / What a bland goodbye / The coward claimed he was a lion / I’m combing through the braids of lies / ‘I’ll never leave’ / ‘Nevermind.’”

The 1975 released their fifth album, Being Funny in a Foreign Language, in 2022. Most recently, they collaborated with Charlie xcx on &#8220;I Might Say Something Stupid,&#8221; which was featured on her Brat remix album.
Since his split from Swift, Healy has moved on with model Gabbriette Bechtel. After going public with their romance in September 2023, the couple announced their engagement in June. Swift, meanwhile, has been dating Kansas City Chiefs star Travis Kelce since last summer.
