Taylor Swift Song Mention Has Been ‘Surreal’ Says London Pub The Black Dog: ‘We’re at Max Capacity’ (Exclusive)

 

The last six days have been some what of a dream for London pub The Black Dog.

After Taylor Swift released her record-breaking new album, The Tortured Poets Department, on April 19 — featuring a bonus track titled “The Black Dog” — everything changed for the local pub.

“It’s been surreal,” Marketing Manager Amy Cowley tells PEOPLE of the response the pub has had. “We’re quite lucky because we’re a well-established and well-loved local pub already, but that’s the key word, we’re a local pub, so to get this worldwide attention has been crazy.”

Swifties have been flocking to the bar, which is located in south London, from around the world to see the now-famous location mentioned by Swift, 34.

“We’ve had people from all over,” Cowley tells PEOPLE. “We’ve had inter

“Every single day since the album has been released we’ve had to turn people away as we’re at max capacity, so that shows the levels that we’re talking about,” she continues of the attention the pub has received. “What’s been great though is that the fans have been amazing. We’ve had them shifting up to share tables with strangers to let people get in the door which is really cool.”

In “The Black Dog,” the pop superstar’s lyrics tell the story of a person she watches enter the bar, a move that appears to betray her.

“I am someone who until recent events / You shared your secrets with / And your location, you forgot to turn it off,” she writes in verse one. “And so I watch as you walk / Into some bar called The Black Dog / And pierce new holes in my heart,” she continues.

Swift reiterates that the person “forgot to turn it off,” likely in reference to their location tracking on their phone. In the chorus, she goes on to sing, “I just don’t understand how you don’t miss me / In The Black Dog, when someone plays The Starting Line.”

The Starting Line is mentioned a few times on TTPD, possibly in reference to the band often covered by The 1975, whose frontman is Swift’s ex Matty Healy. Within “The Black Dog,” Swift writes about this person meeting a girl at the bar, but she’s too young to know who the pop-punk band from the early 2000s are or their songs.
