Following the release of her 2020 documentary "Miss Americana," a behind-the-scenes clip of Swift and Antonoff went viral on social media. The video shows the two ad-libbing and spitballing lyrics back and forth in the studio until they stumble across the fully-formed bridge of "Getaway Car" from "Reputation." The candid exhilaration the two experienced at the moment is perfectly captured in the video that Swift was filming on her phone.
In an October 2023 sit-down chat with Today, Antonoff reflected on this viral moment and what made it so magical. "That video is popular for the perfect reason, which is that is the only time in my life, the million hours I spent in studios, that a camera was ever on…when magic actually happened," he said.
