Many fans linked Fearless's original release date (November 2008) to Swift's breakup with her then-boyfriend, Joe Jonas. Her Fearless song "Forever & Always" and her Speak Now track "Last Kiss" are also being linked to Mr. Perfectly Fine's savage lyrics.

Back in November 2008, Swift appeared on The Ellen DeGeneres Show to promote her original Fearless record. She also shared her feelings post Jonas' breakup. The two musicians dated in their teenage years, from July to October 2008.

"Oh, it's okay. It's alright. I'm cool. You know what? It's like when I find that person, that is right for me and he'll be wonderful, and when I look at that person, I'm not even going to be able to remember the boy who broke up with me over the phone in 25 seconds when I was 18."

added Swift.
