Taylor Swift wrote Calvin Harris' "This Is What You Came For" under Swedish pseudonym
Calvin Harris and Rihanna's hit "This Is What You Came For", actually, was written by US popstar Taylor Swift (who, at the time, was Harris' girlfriend). A rep for the singer has confirmed the news.
According to TMZ, Swift wrote the song at a piano and made a demo on her iPhone, which she then sent to Harris, who reportedly "loved it". The couple was afraid that having both their names on it would distract from the music, so Swift agreed to use the pseudonym, retaining the publishing rights to the track.
Harris has tweeted:
And she sings on a little bit of it too Amazing lyric writer and she smashed it as usual.
He also added:
I wrote the music, produced the song, arranged it and cut the vocals though. And initially she wanted it kept secret, hence the pseudonym.
