“I wanted to do an album that was so focused on quality and on the theme and everything fitting together like a perfect puzzle that these 12 songs for my 12th album, I feel like we achieved that. And I’m really happy about that,” she said on New Heights.
Swift also recalled discussing the tracklist with her producers, Max Martin and Shellback. “And we were just like, there’s no other songs coming. With The Tortured Poets Department, I was like, here’s a data dump of everything I thought, felt, in two or three years.” She emphasized that on The Life of a Showgirl, “There’s not other ones [additional songs] coming. This is the record I’ve been wanting to make for a very long time.”
She also explained that the theme of the album is “everything that was going on behind the curtain.” And she went on to say that while writing the LP, “My main goals were melodies that were so infectious that you’re almost angry at it. And lyrics that are just as vivid, but crisp and focused and completely intentional.”
Swift first broke the news about her upcoming album in a New Heights podcast teaser clip posted on August 12. There, she revealed the cover art to Kelce and his brother, Jason, but it was blurred out at the time.
Pre-orders for The Life of a Showgirl are now available on her website.
