Imogen has confirmed time and time again that Taylor wrote all the lyrics.
receipts? because it sounds nothing like her usual diary of a 12y old teen girl that's on the rest of this album
or don't waste your time her publicist probably paid her
Alfred Soto: With Robin Thicke unfairly condemned to purgatory and Justin Timberlake in a lab mixing chemicals for the next branding, Derulo emerges as the best kiddie funk love man. It peaks early. “Cheyenne” opens with the thud of sequencers and adrift rhythm guitar and builds toward a self-mocking hook, “All I ever wanted was some fuuunnnn,” whined like Barry Gibb waiting for a late chauffeur.

Alex Ostroff: I still don’t have a handle on who Jason Desrouleaux is as a pop culture figure but despite this he’s quietly become one of the few R&B guys able to cross over with consistently good songs. “Cheyenne” draws on the same era of Michael Jackson as a lot of The Weeknd’s joints, but with most of the venom and creepiness drained out. What’s left behind is a beautiful, vaguely ominous aura. It isn’t as immediately hooky as the perfect “Want to Want Me” but it’ll linger in your ears long after the radio’s moved on to lighter fare.

Will Adams: Amazing what some vocal coaching will do. Before, Derulo sounded like a giant nose; now he’s riding the disco falsetto trend better than Nick Jonas, Adam Levine, and Taio Cruz. “Cheyenne” is tightly wound and well-written on its own, but in a rare occurrence for pop, the level of melodrama provided by both the vocals and lyrics match.
