Taylor Swift has revealed her love for the 'I Love It' hitmakers, Icona Pop - declaring herself 'smitten' with the track.
The '22' singer opened up to Billboard about what she's currently listening to and Icona Pop were among her picks - while she admitted that she is definitely not a fan of EDM or house music.
Swift first recommended country duo Florida Georgia Line's single 'Cruise', saying, "It’s the catchiest thing I’ve heard in years, and I love the Nelly version too. They’re out on tour with us right now, so I get to hear it all the time."
She then added, "I’m also absolutely smitten with 'I Love It' by Icona Pop. It’s the way reckless abandon sounds in my head. I play it right before I go onstage."
Swift then spoke about her love for ballads, predictably name-dropping her friend and collaborator Ed Sheeran. "I love that ballads became huge hits this year and that unexpected songs and artists got lots of airplay," she said.
"Ed Sheeran, the Lumineers and fun. are some of my favorites right now, and they’ve all had big hits with songs that have substance and real instruments. I like it!"

But despite the dubstep influence on her single 'I Knew You Were Trouble', Swift has no plans to move into EDM or house music any time soon.
"I don’t like to feel like I’m in a club when I’m in my car and I turn on the radio," she admitted. "Anything that ceases to be a song and just sounds like house music kind of stresses me out."
