Taylor Swift reveals a new song video and provides a sneak peak at “The Tortured Poets Department” schedule

Just prior to the scheduled launch of her 11th studio album, titled “The Tortured Poets Department,” Taylor Swift ignited excitement among her fans by sharing a cryptic video across her social media platforms. Additionally, she organized a pop-up event to generate awareness for the upcoming album, slated for release on April 19, 2024. Through a mysterious teaser video, Swift captivated her audience on Friday, building anticipation for the impending release of her latest musical endeavor.

In the video titled TTPD Timetable, Swift teased fans with a glimpse of what’s in store for the album’s release day, concealing herself behind closed doors. The video begins with a clock showing two o’clock, followed by a calendar revealing the album’s launch date as Friday, April 19, at eight o’clock ET, along with an enticing announcement of a music video release. Below the release time, 14 tally marks add to the intrigue, prompting speculation about the potential release date of the song chosen for the music video.

Supporters have proposed two theories to decipher the significance of the tally marks. Some suggest that since there are 14 days in a fortnight, the video might hint at track 14, “The Smallest Man Who Ever Lived,” while others speculate it could relate to the album’s opening track, “Fortnight,” featuring Post Malone.

Swift’s advertisement also highlights Saturday, April 20, marked as Record Store Day. This biannual event coincides with the April release of Swift’s album, stirring anticipation among fans for potential surprises from the artist on this occasion.

Simultaneously, Taylor unveiled a pop-up installation to raise awareness about her upcoming album.
