Taylor Swift tells the end of a “love story” on her terms.
On Friday, April 5, the pop megastar, 34, shared five exclusive playlists with Apple Music that explore the five stages of heartbreak, something fans had theorized her upcoming album, The Tortured Poets Department, would explore.
According to a press release, with each playlist, Swift has chosen songs from her catalog that fit each stage: denial, anger, bargaining, depression, and acceptance.
I Love You, It’s Ruining My Life Songs represent denial and feature songs like “Lavender Haze” and “Style (Taylor’s Version).”
“This is a song list about getting so caught up in the idea of something that you have a hard time seeing the red flags, possibly resulting in moments of denial and maybe a little bit of delusion. Results may vary,” said 14 – the Grammy winner told Apple Music.
Taylor Swift About Sad Songs
In You Don’t Get to Tell Me About Sad Songs, Swift addresses anger with songs like “Bad Blood (Taylor’s Version) and “We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together (Taylor’s Version).”
“All of these songs have one thing in common: I wrote them while I was feeling angry. Over the years, I’ve learned that anger can manifest itself in many different ways, but the healthiest way it manifests itself in my life is when I can write a song about it, and a lot of times that helps me get through it,” he said.
Can I cry? Songs, Swift dives into haggling with songs like “Soon You’ll Get Better” and “This Is Me Trying.” She explained that these songs encompass the act of “trying to make deals with yourself or someone you care about.”
“You’re trying to make things better, and you often feel desperate, because we often have a gut intuition that tells us that things are not going to turn out the way we expect, which makes us more desperate, which makes us negotiate more,” he told Apple Music.
Swift addresses depression with Old Habits Die Screaming Songs, which includes songs like “Champagne Problems” and “Forever Winter (Taylor’s Version).”
With this playlist, he dives into “the feelings of depression that often appear in my songs.”
“I often feel like when I listen to songs or write songs that are about this intensity of loss and hopelessness, it’s usually in the phase where I’m close to overcoming that feeling,” he said of the playlist.
The final playlist is I Can Do It with a Broken Heart Songs, which represents acceptance and includes songs like “You’re On Your Own, Kid” and “Long Story Short.”
Swift said this collection of songs “represents making room for more good things in your life, making that choice because a lot of times when we lose things, we gain them too.”
The “I Can See You” singer’s 11th studio album, The Tortured Poets Department, which she announced during the 2024 Grammys while accepting the award for best pop vocal album for Midnights, will be released on April 19.
