This morning, I was asleep, and I kept hearing my phone vibrate repeatedly. *Vvvvvvvv* *Vvvvvvv* !
After like, the tenth time, I opened my phone. I see that my group chat name has been changed to “FOLKLORE” which totally confused me. My friends and I have a group chat that is always named after the more recent Taylor album, so I’m thrown off and still half asleep. Then I see the texts from Pj telling me to wake up and that there’s a new album coming. It takes me a moment to process and then I audibly gasp and am like “OH MY GOD, THERE’S A NEW ALBUM COMING THIS CANNOT BE POSSIBLE.”
The “Folklore” crowd at the Reputation Tour! (Side note: I touched Taylor’s hand at this concert as she ran by us – it was an amazing moment for sure!!!)
I immediately head to Taylor’s instagram where there’s a ton of new photos of her in the woods and a new album announcement for midnight tonight. I feel unprepared, excited and THRILLED that this happening. Normally, my friends and I plan Taylor album release party, but obviously we only have hours here, plus it’s a pandemic. We plan on having a Google Hangout tonight to listen to it together, and I could not be more excited! There’s usually a lot of back and forth from all of us speculating what the album will be like – so this feels short notice but also the best surprise!
This is extra exciting because we were supposed to see Taylor (floor seats!!!!) at Gillette Stadium on the 28th, but obviously that had to be canceled – and for good reason. This has me so curious about what she will do about rescheduling now that a new album is out. I don’t even care at all – I just hope we can keep our seats and go see Taylor Swift perform next summer together like we planned. 🙂
This is Pj and I the weekend we listened to the “Lover” album together. :’)
Are you excited for the new album? Any guesses on the best songs?
