Everything is aligning for the release of a brand new album by Taylor Swift. There was much less teasing and sneak around with the songs by Taylor compared to the release of her last studio album ‘Reputation’ in 2017.
Taylor Swift’s newest album titled ‘Lover’ will be one filled with romance. Taylor has been winning at a long-standing relationship with actor Joe Alwyn and her emotions in the past few years with him are perfectly reflected on different aspects of this album. The entire colour palette has changed from black and blood-red in the ‘Reputation’ era to a calming and beautiful mixture of pink, blue, yellow and green in the present era. It’s a much happier and cheerful era!
So far, Taylor Swift has released three singles and a promotional single off of the album. First, we got a taste of “ME!” featuring Brendon Urie, followed by “You Need to Calm Down,” both of which has their own music videos. The infamous 5th track on the album was revealed to be titled “The Archer,” which talks about being the hunter and ending up the hunted in all of her romantic affairs so far. The last track to be released was the title track of the album, ‘Lover,’ which is considered to be a dedication to Taylor’s current boyfriend Joe Alwyn.
On 17th August 2019, Taylor Swift revealed the complete tracklist of the ‘Lover’ album. This is Taylor’s first album with Republic Records, after producing 6 albums with Big Machine Records.
