After a year full of rainbows and unicorns, Taylor Swift is going in a completely new direction for his eighth studio album, The folklore. The 30-year-old dropped a surprise album on Friday, and we have not been the same since then. As Swift details in the prologue of the letter ofshe was feeling particularly inspired while self-isolation and decided to let his imagination run wild.” The result was an album full of 16 songs that are both lyrically sharp and incredibly charming. (I can’t even finish one of my many art projects in the house, and she is here writing a full album. We love to see.)
While Lover was remembering the simpler times of childhood (hence, all the opal rings and cotton candy skies), The folklore it has a much more mature tone as she remembers about the lost love, let go of the grudge, and the search for a new love that is safe and warm . . . as an old cardigan. As you prepare to become lost in Swift’s new album, read the future like a handful of POPSUGAR editors (and Swifties) to react to their favorite tracks.
