Escape introduction to Taylor Swift (5)
I believe the answer is:
fleet
'swift' is the definition.
(I know that swift can be written as fleet)
'escape introduction to taylor' is the wordplay.
'escape' becomes 'flee' (I've seen this before).
'introduction to' indicates taking the first letters.
The first letter of 'taylor' is 't'.
'flee'+'t'='FLEET'
(Other definitions for fleet that I've seen before include "Fast - naval force" , "Swift; armada" , "collection of aircraft" , "Swift; group of ships" , "Fast-moving" .)
