I Wish You Would (Taylor Swift song)

"I Wish You Would" is a song by the American singer-songwriter Taylor Swift from her fifth studio album, 1989 (2014). Swift wrote and produced the song with Jack Antonoff, who helped build it on an initial track sampling the snare drums on Fine Young Cannibals' 1989 song "She Drives Me Crazy". "I Wish You Would" is a bubblegum and synth-pop song instrumented by a staccato disco guitar lick, thick synths, erupting snares, and layered vocals. The lyrics are about the longing between two lovers.

Several critics commended the production elements of "I Wish You Would" for featuring a nostalgic feel of the 1980s while sounding new, but a few others deemed it a weaker track for Swift. The song received certifications in Australia and the United Kingdom. Following a 2019 dispute regarding the ownership of Swift's back catalog, she re-recorded the song as "I Wish You Would (Taylor's Version)" for the re-recorded album 1989 (Taylor's Version) (2023). The re-recorded song charted at number 26 on the Billboard Global 200 and reached the top 40 in Canada, New Zealand, and the United States.
