Is Taylor Swift Teasing Eras Tour Changes in New Rehearsal Clip? See Why Fans Think She’s Adding TTPD
“ALL OF THIS IS NEW,” an eagle-eyed fan said of the theory
Taylor Swift fans think the pop star could be making changes to her Eras Tour!
The Grammy winner, 34, has been sharing YouTube Shorts as of late with The Tortured Poets Department-related content. Her eleventh studio album was released just in time for the European leg of her Eras Tour and Swifties are convinced that her latest rehearsal clip hints at songs from the new collection joining the setlist.
“HOW IS NO ONE TALKING ABOUT THE TTPD SIGN SHES LEANING AGAINST?! OR WHAT ABOUT THE FACT THAT THE DANCERS ARE IN TOP HATS!?! ALL OF THIS IS NEW, ” YouTube user @bethanymills1293 commented on the clip.
Swift’s YouTube Shorts video is set to her new single “Fortnight,” which features Post Malone.
In the music video for the track, the “Clara Bow” singer can be seen sitting in a room full of typewriters around the 1:39 mark. The men in the background are all wearing top hats.
Fans think that the superstar may begin incorporating elements of the new album into her shows when the Eras Tour picks back up in Paris in May.
As part of the TTDP rollout, Swift told Amazon Music that “Fortnight” “exhibits a lot of the common themes that run throughout this album,” one of the biggest being “fatalism — longing, pining away, lost dreams.”
“I think that it’s a very fatalistic album in that there are lots of very dramatic lines about life or death. ‘I love you, it’s ruining my life.’ These are very hyperbolic, dramatic things to say,” she said. “It’s that kind of album.”
When iHeartRadio premiered the album during a special listening event, Swift shared some more “Fortnight” tidbits.
“A lot of the songs on The Tortured Poets Department deal with the idea of heartbreak or loss in a metaphor of something else,” she said while introducing the song.
Since the album’s extended Anthology edition was released on April 19, it has already hit 1 billion Spotify streams in under a week.
Much of the album’s success can be attributed to having “Fortnight” as the breakout single.
“I’ve been such a huge fan of Post because of the writer he is, his musical experimentation and those melodies he creates that just stick in your head forever,” she wrote on Instagram after announcing it would be the album’s first single.
“I got to witness that magic come to life firsthand when we worked together on Fortnight.”
