Do you realize how incredibly excited I am right now!?
On August 13, Taylor revealed in a live webcast while wearing a red and white striped dress,
red earrings and red lipstick, that her fourth album, Red, will be released on October 22, 2012. She took questions from the live audience and played the first single,
entitled "We Are Never, Ever Getting Back Together."
Later, she will reveal tour dates for another tour!!
She named it "Red" because of all
the different emotions she explores on the album "They're all pretty much about the
kind of tumultuous, crazy, insane, intense, semi-toxic relationships
that I've experienced in the last two years," she said of the album,
which was two years in the making. "All those emotions spanning from
intense love, intense frustration, jealousy, confusion, all of that, in
my mind all those emotions are red. There's nothing in between. There's
nothing beige about any of those feelings," she added. She wrote more then 30 songs but the album will only have 16 songs,
including the title track. It also features collaborations with other
artists, producers and songwriters, unlike 2010"s "Speak Now" album
written entirely on her own. Swift confirmed that there is a duet
with British singer Ed Sheeran on the album. They wrote
it while sitting on a trampoline.
Swift played the first single from the
album during the web chat. It's called "We Are Never Ever Getting Back
Together." She sarcastically described it as "really touching and
sensitive," saying "it's a really romantic song that's to my lovely
ex-boyfriend." As it played over a speaker, she chair-danced and
mouthed the words along with her fans. The song is available now at iTunes. Swift says she has spent the past few
months working on a follow-up to her incredibly successful "Speak Now
World Tour" that sold out stadiums and arenas in 19 countries. She plans
to release those details at a later date. Her last album, "Speak Now," sold more
than 1 million copies in its first week out. She has sold more than 22
million albums and 50 million singles throughout her career.
I have already bought the new single.. without even listening to it first.
I got goosebumbs when I finally could listen to it.
I already want to listen to it on repeat!!!
What makes this even better!? (when I thought it couldn't get better!)
October 22 is also the day House Season 8 comes out on DVD!!!
Oh, what a happy day October 22 will be!
