2020 has been too much for any of us to bear, even for Taylor Swift. In fact, it took who she was and she has turned into a ferocious bear. Don’t worry she will got back to her sweet kitty self once she goes bare from the bear.
While most people have been working on their waistlines getting rounder during this coronavirus pandemic, Taylor Swift has been working on something else round. No, she is not married and having a baby. Well, not a human one, but she is giving birth to her eighth baby tonight.
Most of the things I had planned this summer didn’t end up happening, but there is something I hadn’t planned on that DID happen. And that thing is my 8th studio album, folklore. Surprise 🤗Tonight at midnight I’ll be releasing my entire brand new album of songs I’ve poured all of my whims, dreams, fears, and musings into. I wrote and recorded this music in isolation but got to collaborate with some musical heroes of mine; @aarondessner (who has co-written or produced 11 of the 16 songs), @boniver (who co-wrote and was kind enough to sing on one with me), William Bowery (who co-wrote two with me) and @jackantonoff (who is basically musical family at this point). Engineered by Laura Sisk and Jon Low, mixed by Serban Ghenea & Jon Low. The album photos were shot by the amazing @bethgarrabrant. Before this year I probably would’ve overthought when to release this music at the ‘perfect’ time, but the times we’re living in keep reminding me that nothing is guaranteed. My gut is telling me that if you make something you love, you should just put it out into the world. That’s the side of uncertainty I can get on board with. Love you guys so much ♥️
Folklore consists of 16 all-new songs, and the first music video, Cardigan, will be released at the same time as the record. The deluxe version of Folklore has an additional song called The Lakes.
See, people can be productive during this time. It just isn’t us.
I wonder how political the album will be, now that she has come out as a Democrat who is pro LGBTQ rights.
In the past, Taylor Swift wrote at least one song about her ex Jake Gyllenhall. Now, she has taken it to a whole new level by looking like him for her new music video The Man. In it, she depicts many of the things women hate about men.
Therefore, you have to wonder if it was her idea which man she would look like as Tyler Swift, or the makeup department came up with all on their own. Since she directed it, I think you can we all assume the answer to that question.
When it comes to the song, it is another one of her catchy tunes I cannot get out of my head.
Taylor Swift has not really allowed the cameras into her life, but that is all going to change on January 31st. That is when her documentary Miss Americana debuts on Netflix. It is a rare look into her life and why she took a year off from everything. She needed to reinvent herself after being told to be the good little girl by all of the record executives. Now she is free to be her, her, er!
