TAYLOR SWIFT’S NEW ‘MIDNIGHT’ ALBUM
Written by: Abdur Rehman Khan
Taylor Swift amazed us all by revealing at the 2022 VMAs that her subsequent launch wouldn't be one of her rerecorded albums as formerly assumed, but instead her much-predicted 10th studio album, Midnights.
Long-time fans understand all too well that Swift loves her surprises and Easter eggs, and after surprise drops with Evermore and Folklore, the madwoman herself has long gone back to her release patterns of the past with an initial declaration and a slow trickle of information.
Long tale short, as we have a good time with the release of Midnights — which in much less than 24 hours has become the most-streamed album in a single day in Spotify history — EW has collected all of the information you need to know as you dive into the record.
The Songs:
Swift poked fun at her Easter-egg-giving ways on Sept. 21, revealing on TikTok that she would be unveiling one song title at a time, at random, in a video series cheekily called Midnights Mayhem with Me. The full track list has since been released:
1. Lavender Haze
2. Maroon
3. Anti-Hero
4. Snow on the Beach ft. Lana Del Rey
5. You're on Your Own, Kid

9. Bejeweled
10. Labyrinth

12. Sweet Nothing
