During Taylor’s live Instagram, she told fans that a music video for her latest record ‘You Need to Calm Down’ would drop on Monday, at 8:15am ET.

 

 

The album will include 18 new tracks and according to Taylor, she says her new album is ‘very romantic.’  Now, don’t worry, Taylor tells her fans to not expect all love songs, “Not just simply thematically. … You can find romance in loneliness or sadness.”  In addition to Lover, Taylor explains there will be ‘four deluxe editions and each edition will include different content.’  Talking on Good Morning America, Taylor says, “I wanted you to hear the song first and then see the video because the video is very worth the wait.  I  want the video to be a separate discovery.”

As Billboard notes, “Swift thanked her fans for their detective skills in combing through all her newest releases for hints — including lead single “ME!” and its clue-filled music video. “I’ve been so, so, so honored to your dedication to discovering Easter eggs,” she said. She dropped a new egg for fans too: If you break down that Aug. 23 release date, 8 (August) + 2 + 3 = 13 — Swift’s famous favorite number.”
