Taylor Swift Issues “Surprise” 31-Song Double Album

The Washington Post reports:

As Taylor Swift accepted the Grammy Award in February for best pop vocal album for “Midnights,” she informed the audience that she had been keeping a secret for two years: She had recorded a new album, “The Tortured Poets Department,” and it would be released on April 19.

When Swift said “two years,” she held up two fingers, which under normal circumstances is a regular human hand signal. However, Swift’s die-hard fans know her all too well … and when the lead-up to the record included more references to the number two, they suspected something was up.

And they were correct — Swift dropped the 16-song record on midnight Eastern time on Friday, and then two hours later at 2 a.m., announced a surprise: It was actually a double album titled “The Tortured Poets Department: The Anthology,” with 15 additional songs.

Taylor Swift’s “The Tortured Poets Department” has finally arrived, and with a huge surprise – it’s actually a double album. https://t.co/oAf7coiiNH
