Dear John (Taylor Swift song)
- ... that musician John Mayer dismissed Taylor Swift's song "Dear John" as "cheap songwriting"?

QPQ: 
- Not done
Overall: 
Waiting for a QPQ as this is the sixth time they've sent something to DYK. The statement in the lead about live performances needs to be in the prose (and cited ofc). The hook can be made more concise by removing "Taylor Swift's song" because readers can glean from context clues what "Dear John" is. Everything else seems fine - this hook seems the best we got with the article's information. Off-topic, but this is my favourite track from SN! Your Power 🐍 💬 "What did I tell you?"

- Well,
I suppose this is good to go then, @Ippantekina. For anyone looking to promote this, note that I echo the same sentiments NLH expressed below. It will be a bad look running an abundance of hooks related to Swift in relatively quick succession. Your Power 🐍 💬 "What did I tell you?"

- Per a discussion over at WT:DYK, it may be a good idea to wait a while to promote this should this be approved, as there have been some concerns that there may have been too many Taylor Swift-related hooks on DYK within a short amount of time.
