Taylor Swift begins revealing ‘Midnights’ tracklist with final song title

Taylor Swift has finally unveiled all of the track titles on her upcoming Midnights album.

Taylor Swift is counting down to on a promotional blitz, revealing her forthcoming album's complete track list, a high-profile collaboration, a tease about how boyfriend Joe Alwyn inspired what is sure to be one of her sweetest new songs. In the middle-of-the-night hours between Thursday and Friday, Swift kept her fans up with hourly-updates on her TikTok series that revealed her new song titles one-by-one. The big finale was with track No.

Taylor Swift has revealed that Lana Del Rey features on her upcoming new song ‘Snow On The Beach’.Swift confirmed the collaboration during the final instalment of ‘Midnights Mayhem With Me’, the video series through which she’s been drip-feeding the track titles from her forthcoming album ‘Midnights’ (out October 21).“Our LAST EPISODE! The season finale of ‘Midnights Mayhem With Me’, with QUITE the twist of an ending…,” Swift captioned the clip.In the video, she told viewers: “Track four is called ‘Snow On The Beach’. Featuring… Lana Del Rey.”The star has now revealed all 13 song names from ‘Midnights’, including ‘Vigilante Shit’, ‘Midnight Rain’, ‘Anti-Hero’, ‘Bejeweled’ and ‘Mastermind’.

Chris Willman Senior Music Writer and Chief Music Critic Taylor Swift kept the “Midnights” oil burning later than usual late Thursday night and early Friday morning, revealing not just the name of one song at midnight, as has been her custom in the buildup to the Oct. 21 album release, but all five of the remaining mystery track titles, one per hour, until she finally reached a grand finale at 4 a.m. ET. And that final track reveal had — as she promised — “QUITE the twist of an ending,” with Lana Del Rey being revealed as making the only featured appearance by a guest on the album. Del Rey will make her cameo on a song titled “Snow on the Beach,” which will be track 4 on “Midnights.” The other four tracks whose titles were revealed over the course of the wee hours were “Lavender Haze,” set to be the first track on the album; “You’re on Your Own,” track 5; “Labyrinth,” track 10; and “Sweet Nothing,” track 12.

Chris Willman Senior Music Writer and Chief Music Critic Taylor Swift kept the “Midnights” oil going once again with the late-night revelation of yet another new song, with an explanation of its subject matter to match. But this time, indications are that she may keep going into the wee hours and not just call it a night at 12:02 a.m. The new song Swift revealed and talked about as the clock struck 12 on the east coast is “Lavender Haze.” About the song, Swift said in a video message on Instagram: “Track 1 on ‘Midnights’ is ‘Lavender Haze,’ and I happened upon the phrase ‘lavender haze’ when I was watching ‘Mad Men.’ And I looked it up because I thought it sounded cool, and it turns out that it’s a common phrase used in the fifties where they would just describe being in love. Like, if you were in the lavender haze, you were in that all-encompassing love glow… and I thought that was really beautiful. And I guess theoretically, when you’re in the lavender haze, you’ll do anything to stay there and not let people bring you down off of that cloud. And I think a lot of people have to deal with this now, not just like ‘public figures.’ because we live in the era of social media, and if the world finds out that you’re in love with somebody, they’re going to weigh in on it. Like my relationship for six years: we’ve had to dodge weird rumors, tabloid stuff, and we just ignore it. So this song is about ignoring that stuff to protect the real stuff. I hope you guys like it.”

As the song theft legal battle in relation to Taylor Swift’s ‘Shake It Off’ rumbles on, at a court hearing yesterday attention turned to the argument that the songwriters suing Swift don’t even have the legal right to pursue the litigation.In this particular song-theft case, songwriters Sean Hall and Nathan Butler accuse Swift of ripping off their 2001 song ‘Playas Gon Play’ when she wrote her 2014 hit. The claim is mainly based on the similarities between the two songs’ respective key lines, with the 2001 track having the line “the playas gon play/them haters gonna hate”, while ‘Shake It Off’ famously includes the lyric “the players gonna play, play, play, play, play/and the haters gonna hate, hate, hate, hate, hate”.Swift’s legal team have been trying very hard to get the case dismissed, mainly on the basis that the notion of players playing and haters hating is far too generic for lyrics based on said notion to be protected by copyright in isolation.

Taylor Swift has said that her new song ‘Anti-Hero’ hears her delve the deepest she ever has into her “insecurities”.The pop star has been sharing information about her forthcoming 10th album, ‘Midnights’, on social media and telling fans about the cover artwork over the course of the last few weeks. In August, she officially announced her new record, which is based on “the stories of 13 sleepless nights scattered throughout my life”.As of yesterday (October 3) the singer-songwriter had revealed nearly half the album’s tracklist, which she has been unveiling incrementally.

“Me!”But even the 32-year-old pop superstar gets over herself sometimes.“I struggle a lot with the idea that my life has become unmanageably sized, and I struggle with the idea of not feeling like a person,” Swift said early Monday in her Instagram stories.That confession came after the “Shake It Off” singer revealed the latest song title from her upcoming album “Midnights” on TikTok — at the stroke of midnight, of course.And the latest song title is … “Anti-Hero.” Swift has been teasing fans with her “Midnights Mayhem With Me” series that she launched on Sept. 21, picking a ball with a track number from a lottery-style cage. “Anti-Hero” — which is the third track on “Midnights” — is the sixth song title to be revealed from Swift’s much-anticipated 10th studio album, due Oct.

in a TikTok video posted, naturally, at the stroke of midnight.Having previously only revealed that there were 13 tracks on “Midnights,” the 11-time Grammy winner debuted “Midnights Mayhem With Me” as a way to roll out the song titles with a lottery-style cage containing balls marked 1 through 13.“I know I have a habit of dropping cryptic clues and Easter eggs when giving you information about new music, and I’m not here to deny that — I’m here to defy that,” she says in the TikTok. “Welcome to a series I’m calling ‘Midnights Mayhem With Me.’ I am going to be using this technologically advanced device to help me allow fate to decide exactly what tracks titles I’m going to be announcing and in what order.”The 32-year-old entertainer then draws the first ball from the cage, and it just so happens to be for Track 13 — which any good Swiftie knows is Tay Tay’s lucky number.“The first track I’m going to tell you about is Track 13, because, of course,” says Swift, who then picks up a red phone and reveals that “Track 13 is called ‘Mastermind.’ ”And that title tease is all that eager fans get for now, and they will need to calm down and wait for what will presumably be 12 more videos — which are sure to be dropped at the witching hour — before getting the full track listing for “Midnights.”But Swift wasn’t playing it so coy when she accepted her Songwriter-Artist of the Decade honor at the Nashville Songwriter Awards, which took place at Music City’s Ryman Auditorium on Tuesday night.“Writing songs is a calling, and getting to call it your career makes you very lucky,” said Swift, who, of course, got her start in Nashville as a country artist.
