It was a loud rumor and it has finally been confirmed. The fourth special edition that Taylor Swift is going to prepare for her new studio album, The Tortured Poets Department, was confirmed by the artist herself during a show in Singapore on March 3. The Black Dog will be the name of both this special edition and the song that gives it its title.
The news was revealed during the surprise song portion of the American superstar’s set, where he performed a combination of Long Story Short by Evermore (first time it was played live on this tour) and The Story of Us by Speak Now.
“‘Old habits die screaming…’ File name: The Black Dog đź–¤ Pre-order the new final edition of THE TORTURED POETS DEPARTMENT now with the exclusive bonus track ‘The Black Dog’ on my website” Taylor Swift posted on Instagram along with the cover photos.
March 6, or until stock lasts, will be the deadline to purchase this acquisition, which will be at the same level as The Albatross, which was announced a little less than a week ago. It must be remembered that this presentation of the special editions began with The Manuscript and The Botler which will also add a new focus and identity to the album that was confirmed by surprise by Taylor Swift during the Grammy Awards ceremony.
As already explained with both as well as with the new The albatrossthis The Black Dog It will not see the light until next April 19. Sadness and loss seem to be key themes in this new album and she herself announced in one of her last concerts that “I have not needed composition as much on an album as for this work.”
There is less and less time left for that May 29 and 30 in which Taylor Swift will land in Spain with her tour The Eras Tour and will turn our country’s concert scene upside down by playing for the first time at the new BernabĂ©u. They will be two wonderful opportunities for Taylor Swift to reconcile with the Spanish fandom. And, although many do not remember, the singer has a pending account with our country after in 2011 she only managed to bring together a little more than 4,000 people at the WiZink Center (formerly the Palacio de los Deportes in Madrid) with the tour with which he traveled half the world hand in hand with Speak Nowtheir third studio album.
