Matty Healy of the 1975 has revealed that he worked on music for Taylor Swift's tenth album Midnights, but it didn't make the final release.

While speaking at KROQ's DTS Sound Space, The 1975's Matty Healy recalled how Swift had heard bits of The 1975's latest album Being Funny in a Foreign Language through her producer Jack Antonoff, and when asked if Swift returned the favour by letting him hear Midnights early, Healy replied, "Yeah, yeah. We actually worked a bit on that, but then the version of it never came out."
