Arthur Buenahora, senior director of creative services and production, tells Billboard that developing a teenager presents a special challenge as he seeks other songwriters to work with her in finding a distinctive sound. Buenahora has teamed Swift with a variety of writers, not only \"the usual suspects\", he says. \"When someone gets a record deal, publishers call up the hottest writers in town, who often blow in, write a song and blow out without commitment.\" Instead, Buenahora is approaching songwriters whom he believes will listen to Swift as much as mentor her. [...]\nBuenahora knew he wanted to sign Swift after seeing her perform at a BMI showcase. \"It was a no-brainer for me. She's a real songwriter.\" Swift had the option to stick with RCA, but she and Sony\/ATV Tree agreed it was smarter for the publisher to develop her and then approach many labels. Swift has been writing with Brett Beavers, Scooter Carusoe and the Warren Brothers. For now, they are stockpiling songs so they can cherry-pick the ones they like to record. They plan to have lots of different people cutting tracks with different producers to see what Swift falls in love with.\u00bb\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-q-footer\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<cite class=\"elementor-blockquote__author\">Billboard<\/cite>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/blockquote>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-3f1bc8c elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"3f1bc8c\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tTaylor worked on \u201cWelcome Distraction\u201d with the Warren Brothers.

Distraction Unreleased | 2004 \u201cWelcome Distraction\u201d is one of Taylor\u2019s numerous unreleased songs. She co-wrote it with the Warren Brothers in 2004. In the song, Taylor sings about not wanting to get involved in a serious relationship but falling for a guy that she can\u2019t stay away from anyway. It was track seven on her 2004-2005 Demo CD. Table of Contents Background and Lyrical Theme \u201cWelcome Distraction\u201d was likely written when Taylor was working for Sony as a professional songwriter and trying to get a record deal. After school, she would work under the tutelage of legendary country songwriters like Troy Verges, Brett James, and the Warren Brothers. A Billboard article from May 2005 read: \u00abFollowing the publishing tradition of developing new talent, Sony\/ATV Tree Music Publishing in Nashville has snagged 15-year-old songwriter\/artist Taylor Swift. Arthur Buenahora, senior director of creative services and production, tells Billboard that developing a teenager presents a special challenge as he seeks other songwriters to work with her in finding a distinctive sound. Buenahora has teamed Swift with a variety of writers, not only \u201cthe usual suspects\u201d, he says. \u201cWhen someone gets a record deal, publishers call up the hottest writers in town, who often blow in, write a song and blow out without commitment.\u201d Instead, Buenahora is approaching songwriters whom he believes will listen to Swift as much as mentor her. [\u2026] Buenahora knew he wanted to sign Swift after seeing her perform at a BMI showcase. \u201cIt was a no-brainer for me. She\u2019s a real songwriter.\u201d Swift had the option to stick with RCA, but she and Sony\/ATV Tree agreed it was smarter for the publisher to develop her and then approach many labels. Swift has been writing with Brett Beavers, Scooter Carusoe and the Warren Brothers. For now, they are stockpiling songs so they can cherry-pick the ones they like to record. They plan to have lots of different people cutting tracks with different producers to see what Swift falls in love with.\u00bb Billboard Taylor worked on \u201cWelcome Distraction\u201d with the Warren Brothers. Brad and Brett are two Music Row veterans. They also wrote \u201cThat\u2019s When\u201d with Taylor, which she released as a \u201cFrom The Vault\u201d song for Fearless (Taylor\u2019s Version) in 2021. Brad and Brett also penned \u201cHighway Don\u2019t Care\u201d for Tim McGraw, which Taylor features on. Lyrically, the song was written about a guy Taylor really liked at the time, even though she didn\u2019t want to admit it initially. The lyrics were probably inspired by her first boyfriend, Drew. Lyrics [Verse 1]I got a little thing I call self control\u2018Cause I get a little crazy when I let too much goLove\u2019s a little messy and you are tooRight now I\u2019m scared of both of youI laugh and I play and I wasn\u2019t gonna straySwore I\u2019d never let a man in my wayYou\u2019re the last thing I needed today [Chorus]And I don\u2019t know where I lost controlAnd couldn\u2019t take it any longerMust have been somewhere betweenYour smile and the way you say my nameI can\u2019t win, so I give inThe more I fight it just get\u2019s strongerYou\u2019re an inconvenient kind of satisfactionWelcome distraction, welcome distraction [Verse 2]Gone and spilled my coffee, tryna get to the phone\u2018Cause it might be you, you just never knowCan\u2019t talk to my friends without you coming upIt\u2019s even kind of cute, the way you cussI wrote your name down a\u00a0hundred thousand times\u2018Cause it looks so good right next to mineYou\u2019re the last thing I needed tonight [Chorus]And I don\u2019t know where I lost controlAnd couldn\u2019t take it any longerMust have been somewhere betweenYour smile and the way you say my nameI can\u2019t win, so I give inThe more I fight it just get\u2019s strongerYou\u2019re an inconvenient kind of satisfactionWelcome distraction, welcome distraction [Bridge]I\u2019m acting like a girlWith nothing to loseWhen did I stop caringAbout anything but you [Chorus]And I don\u2019t know where I lost controlAnd couldn\u2019t take it any longerMust have been somewhere betweenYour smile and the way you say my nameI can\u2019t win, so I give inThe more I fight it just get\u2019s strongerYou\u2019re an inconvenient kind of satisfactionWelcome distraction, welcome distraction General Information Status Unreleased Leaked 2004
