On August 4, she posted a video on Instagram in which she pushes the number 18 in an elevator. On August 6, she tweeted an image of the time 5 : 00 and the next day a screenshot from a Yahoo ! homepage. She later confirmed on August 13, 2014 on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon that a Yahoo ! live stream session would take place on August 18, 2014 at 5pm. During the live stream, Swift announced her upcoming fifth album and premiered its lead single. Composition `` Shake It Off '' was written by Swift, Martin and Shellback. Produced by Martin and Shellback, the song 's duration is three minutes and thirty - nine seconds. Musically, `` Shake It Off '' is an uptempo dance - pop song written in the key of G major at tempo of 160 beats per minute, and exists outside of the traditional country pop musical style of Swift 's previous releases. Swift 's vocal range spans two octaves from G to G. The song 's arrangement features a saxophone. Jason Lipshutz from Billboard compared the song 's melody to that of Macklemore & Ryan Lewis ' song `` Thrift Shop '' ( 2013 ). A writer from Music Times likened the song to Pharrell Williams ' `` Happy '' ( 2013 ). Writing for The Hollywood Reporter, Shirley Halperin labelled `` Shake It Off '' `` an uptempo version '' of Idina Menzel 's `` Let It Go '' ( 2013 ). Lyrically, the song is dedicated to Swift 's detractors. She has discussed this, saying, `` I 've learned a pretty tough lesson that people can say whatever they want about us at any time, and we can not control that. The only thing we can control is our reaction to that. '' In an interview for Rolling Stone, Swift elaborated : I 've had every part of my life dissected -- my choices, my actions, my words, my body, my style, my music. When you live your life under that kind of scrutiny, you can either let it break you, or you can get really good at dodging punches. And when one lands, you know how to deal with it. And I guess the way that I deal with it is to shake it off. In an October 2014 NPR interview, Swift spoke about the lyrical message of the song in relation to her previous work and a desire to reclaim the `` narrative '' : With the song ' Shake It Off, ' I really wanted to kind of take back the narrative, and have more of a sense of humor about people who kind of get under my skin -- and not let them get under my skin. There 's a song that I wrote a couple years ago called `` Mean, '' where I addressed the same issue but I addressed it very differently. I said, `` Why you got ta be so mean ?, '' from kind of a victimized perspective, which is how we all approach bullying or gossip when it happens to us for the first time. But in the last few years I 've gotten better at just kind of laughing off things that absolutely have no bearing on my real life. I think it 's important to be self - aware about what people are saying about you, but even more so, be very aware of who you actually are, and to have that be the main priority. Critical reception Lipshutz wrote that Swift `` proves why she belongs among pop 's queen bees : As you may have guessed, the song sounds like a surefire hit ''. Tarynn Law from The 405 praised the track and characterized the song 's hook as `` poppy '' and `` catchy ''. Halperin gave the song a positive review, describing it as `` pop - tastic. '' Alice Vincent from The Daily Telegraph also positively reviewed the song, noting it as `` a catchy, upbeat track. '' The Guardian 's Molly Fitzpatrick also found that the song is catchy but does not show off Swift 's writing talent. The Los Angeles Times 's critic Randall Roberts called the song `` a perfect pop confection '' however noting it `` presents an artist gunning for sly transgression but instead landing on tone - deaf, self - absorbed teen regression, with music to match the vibe. '' Writing for The Daily Beast, Kevin Fallon found `` this new direction of her career is woefully depressing. '' While he admitted `` Shake It Off '' is `` a great pop song '', he said it is `` the least musically interesting song that Swift has done '' and `` it 's not personal, at least not in the ways we expect from a Taylor Swift song. '' Fallon deplored Swift 's transition to pop in which he felt she `` abandoned her sound '' in the process. AllMusic music critic Stephen Thomas Erlewine described it as `` an ebullient dance - pop throwback ''. It received nominations for Record of the Year, Song of the Year and Best Pop Solo Performance at the 57th Grammy Awards. In January 2015, The Village Voice named `` Shake It Off '' the fourth - best song of 2014 in their annual Pazz & Jop critics ' poll, with Swift 's following single `` Blank Space '' at number three on the same poll. Chart Performance A day following its impact on US radio stations, `` Shake It Off '' gained an audience of nine million. The song debuted at 45 on the Billboard Radio Songs chart with 29 million in all - format audience. It debuted on the Mainstream Top 40 chart at number 12, tying it with Mariah Carey 's `` Dreamlover '' ( 1993 ) as the highest chart debut. `` Shake It Off '' became her third number - one song there, following her 2008 country crossover hit single Love Story and her 2013 hit `` I Knew You Were Trouble '', which remained No. 1 for seven consecutive weeks. The single debuted at number nine on the Billboard Adult Top 40 chart, becoming the highest debut single on the chart. On its sixth week, the song became her second No. 1 on the Adult Top 40 chart since her 2013 hit `` I Knew You Were Trouble '', tying it with Celine Dion 's `` Because You Loved Me '' ( 1996 ) as the fastest song to reach number 1 in just six weeks. The song debuted at number 58 on the Country Airplay chart, though only two country stations played the song more than four times. It spent only one week on the chart. Billboard noted that its presence on the chart was unusual due to its sound and Swift 's acknowledged transition from country to pop music.

The song 's eight weeks gap in reclaiming number one was the third longest in the chart 's history, after Chubby Checker 's `` The Twist '' ( roughly two years in between ) and Miley Cyrus ' `` Wrecking Ball '' ( nine weeks ). In total, `` Shake It Off '' spent four non-consecutive weeks at number one and 24 non-consecutive weeks in the top 10 of the Billboard Hot 100, thus becoming Swift 's longest - running single in the top 10 ; overall, `` Shake It Off '' spent 50 weeks on the chart, leaving on the issue dated August 15, 2015. The song was replaced at number one by `` Blank Space '', the second single from 1989, thus making Swift the first female artist to replace herself at the top spot in the 56 - year history of the Hot 100.

Music video The music video for `` Shake It Off '' references the styles of multiple pop musicians, including Lady Gaga ( Screenshot of the `` Shake It Off '' music video pictured ) The music video, directed by Mark Romanek, was released on August 18, 2014 ( the same day as the song 's release ). It was shot over three days in June 2014 in Van Nuys, California. The dances were choreographed by Tyce Diorio. Swift talked about the making of the video : `` It was so much fun. I woke up every day of that shoot and could n't wait to get to set. We had twerking, which was so funny. Those girls were trying to teach me how, and it 's just never gon na happen. I tried really hard. They were teaching me what they do, and there 's like a science to it -- they 're like digging their heels into the floor without you seeing their legs move, but their butts ' moving. It 's mind - blowing to me. They were explaining it all to me, and it 's so above my comprehension of how to understand your body. '' According to Music Times, the video features Swift `` embracing her inner dorky dancer by submerging herself with some of the world 's best dancers in the styles of hip hop, lyrical, ballet, jazz and even cheerleader. '' The Guardian 's Sean Michaels also noted the accompaniment of `` twerkers '' in the clip. `` Shake It Off '' music video also features Swift 's fans, who had written fan letters or posted on Twitter and Instagram. Critics also noted references to Lady Gaga and Skrillex in the clip. Hugh McIntyre from Forbes noted the references to Gaga, Skrillex, Fergie and Gwen Stefani in `` Shake It Off '' video, further writing that it is `` quirky and hard to dislike. '' Analyzing the video, VH1 noticed resemblances to Beyoncé 's `` Mine '' video. The video received mixed reviews from music critics. Brian Mansfield of the Chicago Sun - Times called the video `` chirpy ''. Direct Lyrics provided a positive review saying the video is `` certainly a fun one and it catches rather well the rebellious and care - free spirit of the new Taylor single. '' Fitzpatrick of The Guardian wrote : `` The incongruent blend of modern dance, ballet, and breakdancing is fun, but the conceit falls flat. '' HitFix deemed the video `` ill - timed '' due to the race relations debate around the Ferguson riots. Romanek defended his work stating : `` We simply choose styles of dance that we thought would be popular and amusing, and cast the best dancers that were presented to us without much regard to race or ethnicity ''. He also stated : `` If you look at it carefully, it 's a massively inclusive piece, it 's very, very innocently and positively intentioned. And -- let 's remember -- it 's a satirical piece. It 's playing with a whole range of music video tropes and cliches and stereotypes. '' As of October 2017, the video has received over 2.4 billion views on YouTube, and is the eighth most viewed video on the site, and it is also the most viewed by a female artist. Swift also became the first female to have a video on YouTube with 2 billion views. Live performances Swift performed `` Shake It Off '' for the first time live at the 2014 MTV Video Music Awards on August 24, 2014, wearing a shimmering silver two - piece with a crew of male dancers in suits and female dancers in matching charcoal - colored outfits. Swift also performed the song at the 2014 German Radio Awards on September 4, 2014. Swift also performed the song live at the iHeartRadio Music Festival on September 19, 2014. At the after party for the 40th Anniversary of Saturday Night Live, Swift performed the song in an impromptu performance with emcee Jimmy Fallon on backing vocals and Paul McCartney on backing vocals and bass guitar. This was also a regular part of the setlist and always ended each night of Swift 's 1989 World Tour. Controversies 2014 Triple J Hottest 100 Following a January 13, 2015 article on BuzzFeed titled `` Why Is n't Everyone Voting For ' Shake It Off ' In The Hottest 100 ? '' by Mark Di Stefano, the `` # Tay4Hottest100 '' hashtag campaign began during the voting period for Triple J Hottest 100 radio poll for 2014. The campaign led to a significant amount of media coverage as Australian music fans debated the merits of Swift 's inclusion in the poll, including the potential for a number - one ranking. According to those critical of the campaign, the Hottest 100 is reserved for non-mainstream artists who were `` discovered or fostered by Triple J. '' and provides valuable exposure for artists in the outer circles of the music industry. Accusations of cultural elitism surfaced during the campaign, with the Guardian 's Elle Hunt writing : `` the virulent response to # Tay4Hottest100 has revealed the persistence of a dichotomy I 'd thought we 'd thrown out long ago : that of high art versus low. '' Station manager Chris Scaddan told the media that the Swift campaign is within the rules of the poll, later instructing Triple J employees not to comment to `` media, friends, family '' about the campaign, as `` it will all become clear when we get to the countdown next Monday. '' The station said : `` we do n't comment on voting campaigns whilst Hottest 100 voting is open. It draws attention to them and may influence the results of the poll. '' Marketing website Mumbrella suggested on January 20 that a Facebook post by KFC incorporating the `` # Tay4Hottest100 '' hashtag was against the Hottest 100 rules and could see Swift disqualified. Also on January 20, the Guardian submitted a freedom of information request to the ABC in regard to the station 's response to the campaign. After journalist Peter Vincent reported that the Swift campaign had `` swallowed '' the Hottest 100 for 2014, citing research from the University of Queensland that showed that over 7,341 Hottest 100 posts in a 30 - day period leading up to the poll results related to Swift, `` Shake It Off '' was eventually disqualified by the radio station in an announcement on January 26, 2015. The official announcement read : `` it became pretty clear, pretty quick that a lot of people just wanted to prod some ' hipsters ' for the lulz '', acknowledging that the station `` had a heap of fun '', while Swift is `` smart '', `` cool '' and `` successful ''. The song would have placed in the number 12 position if it had been allowed to compete. Lawsuit In November 2015 Jesse Braham, known by the stage name Jesse Graham, sued Swift for $42 million in damages claiming Swift stole lines from his song `` Haters Gonna Hate '' state that Swift 's `` hook is the same as mine... '' and that there would be no `` Shake It Off '' if he `` had n't written `` Haters Gonna Hate ''. The lawsuit was dismissed by United States District Court Judge Gail Standish and used Taylor 's own lyrics from `` We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together '', `` Bad Blood '', `` Blank Space '' and `` Shake It Off '' stating At present, the Court is not saying that Braham can never, ever, ever get his case back in court. But, for now, we have got problems, and the Court is not sure Braham can solve them. As currently drafted, the Complaint has a blank space -- one that requires Braham to do more than write his name. And, upon consideration of the Court 's explanation... Braham may discover that mere pleading BandAids will not fix the bullet holes in his case. At least for the moment, Defendants have shaken off this lawsuit. Standish ruled that Braham did not have enough factual evidence but could file a new complaint `` if his lawsuit deficiencies are corrected. '' Cover versions and impact in Mainstream Media Charli XCX covered the song on BBC Radio 1. In September 2014, Labrinth performed a cover of the song at BBC Radio 1 's Live Lounge. In that same month, Meghan Trainor played it with a ukulele on 2DayFM 's The Dan & Maz Show. In October, Kelly Clarkson sang the song at a concert in Buffalo, New York. In February 2015, Charli XCX delivered a punk version at BBC Radio 1 's Live Lounge and her version nominated at category `` Cover Woodie ( Best Cover Song ) '' on mtvU Woodie Awards. Ryan Adams covered `` Shake It Off '' for his album 1989, a cover of Swift 's album 1989. Yahoo ! writer Oscar Gracey called Adams ' cover of `` Shake It Off '' `` brooding '' and said that it `` may be the sole weak spot on Ryan 's cover album. '' The song was used in the series The Middle during a dance routine. It was featured in the TV spots for the 2014 film Night at the Museum : Secret of the Tomb and the trailer for the 2015 computer - animated film Norm of the North. The song is also featured in other television shows such as Ballers, The Magicians, Supernatural, and Scream Queens. The song and its video are parodied by The Hillywood Show ( created by sisters Hannah and Hilly Hindi ) in their seven - minute YouTube hit, `` Supernatural Parody by The Hillywood Show. '' The lyrics are changed for this send - up of the TV show Supernatural and stars many of its cast members, including Osric Chau, Jared Padalecki, Jensen Ackles, and Misha Collins. A lip sync video made by a New Jersey high school 's television production class also received press coverage after Swift posted about it on her official Twitter. Actor Dwayne Johnson lip synced to this song in Lip Sync Battle along with `` Stayin ' Alive '' by The Bee Gees to beat Jimmy Fallon. The song was covered by Reese Witherspoon and Nick Kroll for the 2016 animated film Sing and is listed in its soundtrack. The song is also featured in the film True Memoirs of an International Assassin. The song is referenced in the title of the Family Guy episode `` Chris Has Got a Date, Date, Date, Date, Date ''.
