AceShowbiz - Taylor Swift has treated her fans, famously known as Swifties, to more details about her new album. Around two weeks before releasing "The Tortured Poets Department", the "All Too Well" hitmaker unveiled lyrics of a song from the upcoming record.
On Monday, April 8, the 34-year-old superstar surprised social media users with a teaser of lyrics on her Instagram page. Making use of Instagram Stories, she uploaded a video documenting a manual typewriter, which apparently was used by someone to type the lyrics of a song that will be included in her new album.
"Crowd goes wild at her fingertips/ Half moonshine/ Full eclipse," the lyrics, which were typed with a black ink on a white paper, read. Along with the teaser, Taylor encouraged social media users to "pre-order" the album "now" by providing a link to a website. She did not forget to let out a white heart emoji over the short footage.
The video was later reshared by a blog via X, formerly known as Twitter. It prompted X users to voice their thoughts on the teaser. In the replies section of the tweet, one in particular wrote, "Her teasing these lyrics on the day of the eclipse," adding a crying face emoji. Similarly, another joined in, "It's eclipse day and perfect lyrics out. Taylor is [a red heart emoji]."
Meanwhile, a third showered the "Shake It Off" songstress with praise, "Truly a jem. She knows how to rule," adding a diamond and crown emojis. In the meantime, a fourth claimed, "I've no idea what this means yet but these lyrics will circle in my brain for days, IM SO EXCITED."
Taylor is slated to unleash "The Tortured Poets Department" on April 19. After breaking the news about the album at the 2024 Grammy Awards on February 4, she later revealed that she has four editions of the record with a bonus track each. The editions, namely "The Manuscript", "The Bolter", "The Albatross" and "The Black Dog", will be dropped simultaneously on April 19.
