For five Jakes, Taylor Swift’s ‘All Too Well’ will become their soundtrack to travel

A contest awards a $300 credit to the namesakes of the reputed heartbreaker in her hit song.

The new 10-minute-long version is part of Swift’s strategy to reclaim control of the masters of her first six albums, which music manager Scooter Braun purchased and then sold to investors. When Jake G. also got caught in the snare, some pop culturati encouraged him to get out of town until the heat cooled off. Meanwhile,travel credits to five of his namesakes.

The youngest participant was an 11-year-old who was likely listening to cribside lullabies when “All Too Well” debuted. The entries walked a delicate line between Team Jake and Team Taylor: “It’s been a tough week for this Jake” and “Not all Jakes are evil, Taytay,” two applicants wrote. We spoke with one of the Jakes — Jacob “Jake” Karl from Hoboken, N.J. — and heard from the others about how they plan to spend their windfall. Note that Nashville does not appear on any of their itineraries.
