Taylor Swift sets Spotify record ahead of new album release

Taylor Swift is among the most popular singers worldwide, hailing from the United States. She is a talented and multi-awarded composer, lyricist, music producer, multi-instrumentalist, and actress. In spring 2023, she kicked off the international The Eras Tour, and a movie showcasing her performances garnered massive box office success, earning hundreds of millions of dollars.

At the beginning of December 2023, Time magazine honoured Taylor Swift with the "Person of the Year" award. In February 2024, during the Grammy ceremony, she revealed that her next album would be released on Friday, April 19th. She shared that it took over two years to write, describing this period as emotionally challenging.

Fans suspect the latest album will narrate the story of her six-year relationship that ended in 2023 with British actor Joe Alwyn. Just a day before the launch, Taylor Swift achieved another milestone.

Only hours remain until the release of "The Tortured Poets Department." Swift's fervent fans are on the edge of their seats anticipating this momentous event. On Thursday, April 18th, Spotify revealed that thanks to her fans, the singer set another career record for the number of pre-saves for a single or album.

Spotify announced that the upcoming album "The Tortured Poets Department" has become the most pre-saved album in the history of the Swedish streaming service. While the exact number wasn't shared, it's clear that for Taylor Swift, millions of fans are keenly awaiting the latest tracks, poised to resonate with them emotionally.
