00:10 Taylor Swift just unveiled the tracklist for her highly anticipated upcoming album,
00:15 and fans are buzzing with theories.
00:17 After announcing Sunday night at the Grammys while accepting her lucky number 13th Grammy win
00:22 that she'll be dropping a brand new album called the Tortured Poets Department on April 19th,
00:27 we're getting a sneak peek on what it could be about with a look at the full tracklist.
00:32 The 16-song list features collabs with Post Malone and Florence and the Machine,
00:36 along with a 17th bonus track titled "The Manuscript." Other tracks include "My Boy Only
00:41 Breaks His Favorite Toys," "I Can Fix Him," "No, I Really Can," and "The Smallest Man Who Ever
00:46 Lived," among others. Swifties have been running rampant with theories about the new album,
00:51 with many saying this will be a breakup album about her ex Joe Alwyn, whom the singer dated
00:56 for six years. It's hard to ignore song titles such as "So Long, London" as being a reference
01:01 to Alwyn, and fans have also speculated that the title of the record itself is connected to the
01:06 actor. Actor Paul Meskel revealed that he, Alwyn, and Andrew Scott have a WhatsApp group chat that
01:11 they named the Tortured Man Club, a nod to the emotional characters they play on screen.
01:16 "What is the name of our WhatsApp group with Joe? Alwyn. Uh, okay, we know this. Yeah. Tortured
01:22 Man Club. Right. Yeah, correct. Which, for the record, had four... had four messages in it."
01:28 Well, there may be some new texts exchanged in there now, but one person who definitely isn't
01:33 tortured about the new record is Swift's beau Travis Kelce, who gushed about the new album
01:37 during a press conference for the Super Bowl, where Kelce and the Kansas City Chiefs will take
01:42 on the San Francisco 49ers. "I have heard some of it, yes, and it is unbelievable. I can't wait for
01:47 her to shake up the world when it finally drops." Kelce also praised Swift's historic Grammy win,
01:52 where the singer became the first artist ever to win Album of the Year four times.
01:57 "She's, uh, she's unbelievable. She's, uh, she's rewriting the history books herself.
02:01 Uh, I told her I'll have to hold up my end of the bargain and come home with some hardware too."
