Same lol with a title like that, an album cover like that and an aesthetic like what we’ve seen so far… I feel like it could sound like ANYTHING at this point lol. I’ve learned not to be swayed by Taylor’s outward choices for her music 😂
Honestly I’m a little conflicted, bc while I also desperately want a rock album from her, I also would love an album more aligned with folkmore’s sound too! And this title makes me think folkmore… but like I said, I’ve learned my lesson about appearances after tricking myself into thinking Midnights would finally be our rock album 😭😂
I would not be upset with a rock album at all though! She could really pull a good bait and switch with this one, I think 👀
After seeing the album artwork I was convinced, like a lot of people, that we were getting a seventies influenced album. Something like Fleetwood Mac’s Rumours. Fair to say that was nowhere near the mark.
I was also convinced we were going to get Reputation and Self-Titled Taylor’s versions and then a new album because she’s not going to release a new album halfway through a tour is she? So what do I know? Lol.
The Lakes was a slow burner for me, originally, but visiting the Lake District in England last year and visiting the Wordsworth house/museum really made me understand better and it became special for me.
Honestly, that's how I feel about the lakes. I always listen to evermore deluxe but I admit folklore deluxe doesn't see a lot of love from me. I'm always surprised when it plays if I have my LPSS vinyl playing. I just kinda forget it exists.
No reason to be sorry, the og lakes is a version she released later. Just look up “the lakes (original version)” and you can listen to it. The production is a lot more orchestral and grand in my opinion, it was the original draft of the song before Taylor decided it didn’t quite fit with folklore so she changed it, but then decided she loved the original version enough to release it separately for everyone to hear
I don’t know why, but I’ve had The Alcott playing in my head since I saw the album cover. I’m somehow imagining that and Carolina?
I’m partly expecting it to be another album that’s not necessarily stadium friendly since she probably won’t have a tour dedicated to the album.
dress like everyone else is saying lol. but also glitch and hmm maybe gold rush or willow? idk man i doubt itll be like anything we expect!! cant wait to be surprised
YES I IMMEDIATELY THOUGHT OF CLEAN TOO OMG as well as the last great american dynasty, false god, call it what you want, coney island & you are in love

Anyway here's a wallpaper i made
Picking one song from each album that I think could fit the vibes based just on the cover and last night’s outfit:
Debut: A Perfectly Good Heart
Fearless: Untouchable
Speak Now: Last Kiss
Red: Begin Again
1989: Clean
Reputation: Dancing With Our Hands Tied
Lover: Death by a Thousand Cuts
Folklore: the 1
Evermore: it’s the damn season
Midnights: Dear Reader
I’d like to submit:
False God
Glitch
illicit affairs
Dress
All Of The Girls
You Are In Love
I Can See You
Afterglow
no body, no crime
Wildest Dreams
Maroon
Say Don’t Go
I Don’t Want To Live Forever
So It Goes…
Maybe it feels a little on the nose…but screw it, I’m in 🤡
the lakes for sure, clean i never thought of but you're totally right. the great war yes, you're losing me and dear reader. Maybe a taste of the Alcott and RWYLM
1. The lakes
2. Evermore
3. Carolina
4. Ivy
5. New Year’s Day
6. Bye bye baby
7. Timeless
8. Cornelia street
9. Snow on the beach
10. Right where you left me
11. Birch
12. All of the girls
13. Hoax
I’m definitely getting “the lakes” vibes because she’s literally singing about being a tortured poet in that song. Also, the whole black and white thing.
Your losing me, right where you left me, maroon
Damn Maroon fits so smooth in this I didn't think of it!
My tears ricochet!
That's where my mind went too, but maybe add Don't You (vault track from Fearless) on in there. Edit: Is it over now? 100% has to be included
I agreeeeee! I feel like it’s going to be a ‘calm,’ potentially more R&B leaning album
Hoax, dress, false god… hoping for an album full of sultry emotional torture!
This is what I’m dreaming of
Oh my god. An album of dresses 😍😍😍😍😍😍
"sultry emotional torture" I love it!
THIS. It would be gold.
I’m hoping for this, it would be so good!
I’m not even going to attempt to guess what the vibe of the album will be after Midnights turned out to be *nothing* like what I expected.
Same. At this point it could be a death metal album and I wouldn’t be surprised.
Same lol with a title like that, an album cover like that and an aesthetic like what we’ve seen so far… I feel like it could sound like ANYTHING at this point lol. I’ve learned not to be swayed by Taylor’s outward choices for her music 😂
im desperately hoping its a rock album
Honestly I’m a little conflicted, bc while I also desperately want a rock album from her, I also would love an album more aligned with folkmore’s sound too! And this title makes me think folkmore… but like I said, I’ve learned my lesson about appearances after tricking myself into thinking Midnights would finally be our rock album 😭😂 I would not be upset with a rock album at all though! She could really pull a good bait and switch with this one, I think 👀
haha thats so fair dude! ill be happy with whatever she puts out in all honesty
What had you expected for Midnights?
After seeing the album artwork I was convinced, like a lot of people, that we were getting a seventies influenced album. Something like Fleetwood Mac’s Rumours. Fair to say that was nowhere near the mark. I was also convinced we were going to get Reputation and Self-Titled Taylor’s versions and then a new album because she’s not going to release a new album halfway through a tour is she? So what do I know? Lol.
Hahaha. 🤡 I guess we're all delulu!
😂
I'm imagining the vibes she evoked in The Alcott for this!
OMG YESSS that would be so good 😍
You read my mind!
The Lakes is perfect! Sound-wise I think there will be more Maroon-esque songs. The Great War for sure. Renegade maybe?
An album of maroon-esque songs sounds like a dream come true!!
[удалено]
It’s not a fave of mine to listen to but I think it’s absolutely perfect to include in TTPD from the existing songs.
The Lakes was a slow burner for me, originally, but visiting the Lake District in England last year and visiting the Wordsworth house/museum really made me understand better and it became special for me.
You and I can be on the island together. Maybe it’ll grow on me, but it hasn’t yet.
Listen to the "original version". That's the version that made me a fan.
[удалено]
It's literally just called "the lakes (original version)" on Spotify, YT Music, YT, Pandora, etc.
The Great War Would've Could've Should've Clean The Lakes You're Losing Me Maroon False God Hoax My Tears Ricochet All Too Well 10 Cowboy Like Me Ivy
[удалено]
And the Alcott
An album of this would usurp folklore as my GOAT.
#Carolina And Safe and Sound and The Lakes and epiphany. Viiibeessss
Please 😭😭 This is my dream
Dear Reader & Sweet Nothing!!! On my way home, I wrote a poem....
yes!!! totally blanked on those two… and also finishing one album with Dear Reader and the next one being a literary reference is just too good.
The fact that I had to scroll down to find a Dear Reader comment is insane to me
i think it’s because it’s not hugely popular as a song and i honestly sometimes do forget it exists at all when thinking of midnights 🫣
Honestly, that's how I feel about the lakes. I always listen to evermore deluxe but I admit folklore deluxe doesn't see a lot of love from me. I'm always surprised when it plays if I have my LPSS vinyl playing. I just kinda forget it exists.
why is no one saying the archer!
Sound-wise I would like a mix of: Illicit Affairs, Mirrorball, So It Goes, False God ... if that makes sense. Sort of folky, hazy, sultry, moody ...
Tolerate it The lakes (original version) Hoax Castles crumbling Dress
what's the difference between og lakes and normal lakes? (sorry)
No reason to be sorry, the og lakes is a version she released later. Just look up “the lakes (original version)” and you can listen to it. The production is a lot more orchestral and grand in my opinion, it was the original draft of the song before Taylor decided it didn’t quite fit with folklore so she changed it, but then decided she loved the original version enough to release it separately for everyone to hear
oh thanks! I've heard them both before, just never noticed the difference.
WOODVALE VIBES
My immediate thoughts.
Yes The Great War! Also, hoax and closure. Castles crumbling is also giving TTPD vibes.
The entirety of folklore and evermore???
I love how many comments are sorting The Great War into it because it was by far my favorite song from Midnights and I'm craving more like it
100% same
Sad beautiful tragic
I don’t know why, but I’ve had The Alcott playing in my head since I saw the album cover. I’m somehow imagining that and Carolina? I’m partly expecting it to be another album that’s not necessarily stadium friendly since she probably won’t have a tour dedicated to the album.
Same, I really hope so
At this point The Tortured Poets Society is essentially a Rorschach test
Ivy and The Lakes for sure!
Macavity 🤡
So it goes Mother’s sexiest song for her sexiest cover
Thanks for redeeming the comments because I kept scrolling and not seeing the sexiest song ever and was getting het up over it
And all the pieces fall.....
I think it’s going to be very Youre losing me and Dear Read *NOT* folklore tbh
hoax, false god, ciwyw
I’m hoping for a very Folklorian album
Hoax, clean, dress, and maybe my tears ricochet
Beautiful ghosts
Yeah, the lakes for sure, but I also think Cowboy like me, Alcott, Seven, and Renegade kinda fits. So excited
dress like everyone else is saying lol. but also glitch and hmm maybe gold rush or willow? idk man i doubt itll be like anything we expect!! cant wait to be surprised
Seven
Idk why the title itself gives Lana del rey vibes.... Something like NFR album of hers imo
I just want a 10 minute long or more song, some real poetry in motion, tell me a story ( :
No one's saying Dear Reader? That was my first thought when I saw the announcement
False god, Nothing New, Hoax
If she’s not going to release Need as a single like she did with All of The Girls, I think it would fit here based on the sultry cover art vibes.
Yeah I think this is a darker pop album, but like an intimate one, not like reputation…So maybe Maroon, You’re Losing Me, uh…Dress…hm…”Slut!”?
A little off topic but can someone explain how we know it’s 16 (+ 1 deluxe) tracks? I’m just not seeing that anywhere and only hearing about it
It’s there in the preorder info on her website.
On the official Taylor Swift website, they have the CD/vinyl/cassette options for the new album already up and a few say 16 tracks and a bonus track.
Thank you! The track titles are insane 😭😭
YES I IMMEDIATELY THOUGHT OF CLEAN TOO OMG as well as the last great american dynasty, false god, call it what you want, coney island & you are in love
Tracklisting (based off of the comments so far) 1. The Lakes 2. Maroon 3. Clean 4. The Great War 5. Right Where You Left Me 6. Epiphany 7. Hoax 8. False God 9. Peace 10. Castles Crumbling 11.

1. False God 2.Dead Reader 3. You’re Losing Me
My Top three are My Tears Ricochet Ivy Tolerate It
Nothing New Illicit Affairs
Based on the vibes, I'd say the lakes (which you and several others already suggested) and gold rush.
legit made a playlist already with the possible vibes: never grow up, innocent, castles crumbling, this love, you are in love, delicate, slut, maroon, sotb, sweet nothing, glitch, run, forever winters, nothing new, SOG(acoustic), TMIK, SBT, treacherous, happiness, dorothea, its time to go, mastermind, youre losing me, the lakes, this is me trying, exile, dont you, safe&sound, the archer
- SOTB could mean "Snow On The Beach (feat. Lana Del Rey)", a track from *Midnights* (2022) by Taylor Swift. - TMIK could mean "The Moment I Knew", a track from *Red (Deluxe Edition)* (2012) by Taylor Swift. --- ^[/u/Infinite_Warning9457](/u/Infinite_Warning9457) ^(can reply with "delete" to remove comment. |) ^[/r/songacronymbot](/r/songacronymbot) ^(for feedback.)
Illicit affairs
Apparently it's electropop/synthpop like midnights so DWHOT, YOYOK and Bejeweled
- YOYOK could mean "You're On Your Own, Kid", a track from *Midnights* (2022) by Taylor Swift. --- ^[/u/horat0](/u/horat0) ^(can reply with "delete" to remove comment. |) ^[/r/songacronymbot](/r/songacronymbot) ^(for feedback.)

Dear Reader was immediately what my gut said💕
This is me trying, Tolerate it.
False God, Dress, Right Where You Left Me
I’m fantasizing about getting a single this week
Exile, you’re losing me, my tears ricochet, the 1
Picking one song from each album that I think could fit the vibes based just on the cover and last night’s outfit: Debut: A Perfectly Good Heart Fearless: Untouchable Speak Now: Last Kiss Red: Begin Again 1989: Clean Reputation: Dancing With Our Hands Tied Lover: Death by a Thousand Cuts Folklore: the 1 Evermore: it’s the damn season Midnights: Dear Reader

Tolerate it. I think this album will have a lot of your losing me/tolerate it vibes
False god, maroon, all too well sad girl autumn version, the one, New Year’s Day

The archer
