Taylor Swift announces The Black Dog variant of Tortured Poets Department

Although Swifties were geared up for all kinds of surprises on the first day of the Eras Tour in Singapore itself, their favourite songbird decided to unleash the big announcement on Day 2 instead. On March 3, Taylor Swift revealed her fourth and final bonus track from the upcoming album The Tortured Poets Department. Like yesterday, the Grammy winner again went live during her concert night at the National Stadium. But this time, an anticipated good news awaited the fans on the other side.

Taylor also shared the monochromatic album art of the special edition on Instagram, revealing the fourth The Tortured Poets Department variant, The Black Dog. Leaving another small surprise for the fans therein, she divulged a line from the song: “Old habits die screaming…” The final new edition of her forthcoming music album is now available for pre-order on her website. The follow-up act to Swift’s 2022 record Midnights is set to arrive on April 19, 2024.
