Who knew Taylor Swift had such a strong relationship with the hands of fate?
Lately, the superstar and princess of keeping her fanbase of 'Swifties' on their toes, has slowly been ushering her 'Midnights' era in on social media in a way that is completely up her alley; Swift, 32, has been revealing track names from her upcoming tenth album in a new series on TikTok!
Since the album was announced more than a month ago, she has been supplying fans with crumbs of information about "Midnights," which will be released on October 21st.
The "Holy Ground" singer is a self-proclaimed lover of supplying her fans with easter eggs pertaining to her latest projects. She could currently be curating a plan to reveal a component of "Midnights" (naturally) having to do with the concept of time!
Time Is Ticking!
According to one recent report in The Blast's string of "Midnights" related coverage, Swift revealed "Midnights" has three alternative covers in a TikTok, and the back covers create a clock when put together!
Clocks aren't only ticking down to "Midnights'" release on TikTok!
Sleuthing Swifties are side-eying the background listeners see when listening to a Swift song on Spotify. According to a thread on the subreddit dedicated to Swift, there are 12 different banners featuring clocks.
Reddit user and Swiftie TigerRenee put on their thinking cap and wrote, "I think there's more thought to which songs got which background because in a lot of cases the spinning of the clock matches the beat of a song. A lot of the clocks spin at different rates but some of them match the beat of the song really well. A few examples: 'Cornelia St.,' 'I Knew You Were Trouble,' and 'State Of Grace...'"
Swifties Brace Themselves For Mayhem!
Swift has chosen to incorporate and surround herself with numbers in her latest easter egg-related roll out!
Over on the TikTok side of social media, Swift is busy supplying her fans with plenty of throwback vibes in a new series she is calling "Midnights Mayhem With Me!" The aesthetics for these TikToks mirror the retro-inspired mood of the alternate "Midnights" covers. Swift can be seen stealthily sitting next to a bingo cage filled with 13 numbered ping-pong balls.
In the first TikTok, which we eagerly covered, the bingo cage gave Swift the thirteenth ping-pong ball, and she then revealed the name of the track, which is called "Mastermind."
When Swift reveals the track titles (she does this again in the second installment of the series), she picks up an old-fashioned telephone and speaks their names into the receiver.
Yesterday, Swifties were gifted a second moment of mayhem in the latest installment of the series, when Swift (and her beloved cat Meredith) revealed the eighth track's name!
Swifties were downright DELIGHTED to discover the name of one of "Midnights'" six explicit tracks; the album's eighth track is called "Vigilante Sh*t!"
"THE TRACK HAS A CUSS WORD IN IT," a Swiftie by the name of Lily commented on the TikTok, "OMG I LOVE THIS NEW TAYLOR ERA!"
TikTok user, SodaBartender, commented, "The way I ran to the comments. She swore guys!! She swore"
According to our report revealing the number of "Midnights'' explicit tracks, the exact number had been revealed via the I-Tunes entry for the album. The news was circulated and celebrated on Twitter as well!
