\n\tLongtime collaborators Taylor Swift<\/a> and Jack Antonoff<\/a> have each won three Grammys<\/a> in songwriting categories, but they have yet to win a Grammy for a song they wrote together. That could change with the new \u201cI Knew It, I Knew You\u201d from Toy Story 5, which could land the award for best song written for visual media.<\/p>\n

\n\tSwift\u2019s first two songwriting Grammys came in the category of best country song. She won in 2010 for co-writing \u201cWhite Horse\u201d with Liz Rose and in 2012 for \u201cMean,\u201d which she wrote by herself. Her third songwriting win came in 2013 \u2013 best song written for visual media for co-writing \u201cSafe & Sound\u201d from The Hunger Games with T Bone Burnett and John Paul White and Joy Williams of The Civil Wars.<\/p>\n

\n\tAntonoff\u2019s first songwriting Grammy in 2013 was song of the year for co-writing the fun. featuring Janelle Mon\u00e1e smash \u201cWe Are Young\u201d with his fun. bandmates Andrew Dost and Nate Reuss and their producer Jeff Bhasker. His next two songwriting Grammys came in genre categories \u2013 best rock song in 2019 for co-writing St. Vincent\u2019s \u201cMasseduction\u201d with the artist, and best rap song earlier this year for co-writing the Kendrick Lamar featuring Lefty Gunplay hit \u201ctv off\u201d with Lamar, Larry Jayy, Dijon McFarlane, Sean Momberger, Sounwave and Kamasi Washington.<\/p>\n

\n\tWhile Swift and Antonoff have yet to share a songwriting Grammy, they have shared four Grammys in other categories. Antonoff won album of the year as a producer on Swift\u2019s 1989, Folklore and Midnights and best pop vocal album for Midnights. (Swift\u2019s win for 1989 made her the first woman to win album of the year twice as a lead artist, a momentous achievement that led to the touching backstage photo shown above.)<\/p>\n

\n\tAs noted at the outset, Swift and Antonoff are tied with three Grammys each in songwriting categories. They\u2019re also tied for total number of Grammys won to date (14 each) and number of song of the year nominations (eight each, which is currently the record.)<\/p>\n

\n\tWhile Swift and Antonoff have yet to win a Grammy for a song they wrote together, they have been nominated for three such songs \u2013 \u201cI Don\u2019t Want to Live Forever\u201d from Fifty Shades Darker (best song written for visual media, 2018), \u201cAnti-Hero\u201d (song of the year, 2024) and \u201cFortnight\u201d (song of the year, 2025).<\/p>\n

\n\tThis would be Swift\u2019s fifth Grammy nomination for best song written for visual media; Antonoff\u2019s second. In addition to the aforementioned \u201cSafe & Sound\u201d and \u201cI Don\u2019t Wanna Live Forever,\u201d Swift was nominated in the category for co-writing \u201cBeautiful Ghosts\u201d with Andrew Lloyd Webber from the much-derided film adaptation of Cats (2021) and for writing \u201cCarolina\u201d from Where the Crawdads Sing (2023).<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cI Knew It, I Knew You\u201d could also be in line for an Oscar nomination for best original song. Randy Newman was nominated in that category with a song from each of the first four Toy Story films, an unprecedented feat. (He won for one of them, \u201cWe Belong Together\u201d from Toy Story 3.) This would be the first Oscar nomination for both Swift and Antonoff.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Longtime collaborators Taylor Swift and Jack Antonoff have each won three Grammys in songwriting categories, but they have…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":728337,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[28],"tags":[3042,49,48,75,262587,51892,341,18744],"class_list":["post-728336","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-music","tag-awards","tag-ca","tag-canada","tag-entertainment","tag-film-music","tag-grammys","tag-music","tag-oscars"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/728336","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=728336"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/728336\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/728337"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=728336"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=728336"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=728336"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
