Swifties can finally rest until Oct. 21, hopefully.
Taylor Swifthas officially announced the complete 13-song tracklist forMidnights, as she shared the upcoming album’s final five song titles on TikTok overnight Friday during herMidnights Mayhem with Meseries.
“It’s been genuinely chaotic, and I’ve enjoyed every second of it,” Swift said of her tracklist rollout in the final clip, after sharing each song via a random draw from a bingo cage. “Thanks for tagging along with me on this journey. It’s been wild.”
“What keeps you up at night? Only 13 more sleepless nights before Midnights (and its 13 stories) 🌌✍️,” Swift wrote on Instagram after the announcement, showing the now-complete tracklist.
“Like my relationship for six years, we’ve had to dodge weird rumors, tabloid stuff, and we just ignore it,” Swift said. “And so this song is sort of about the act of ignoring that stuff to protect the real stuff.”
On Sunday, Swift announced that the third song on the album, “Anti-Hero,” is what she called “one of my favorite songs I’ve ever written.”
“This song is a real guided tour throughout all the things that I tend to hate about myself,” Swift said. “We all hate things about ourselves, and it’s all of those aspects of the things we dislike and like about ourselves that we have to come to terms with if we’re going to be this person. So, yeah, I like ‘Anti-Hero’ a lot because I think it’s really honest.”
Swiftshared moreMidnightsdetails on social mediahours later, referring to the LP a “collection of music written in the middle of the night, a journey through terrors and sweet dreams.”

“The floors we pace and the demons we face,” Swift shared to Twitter. “For all of us who have tossed and turned and decided to keep the lanterns lit and go searching — hoping that just maybe, when the clock strikes twelve, we find ourselves.”
Of course,Midnightsis a separate effort from Swift’s quest to rerecord her early discography. Last November, she followed up the ever-popularFearless (Taylor’s Version)withRed (Taylor’s Version), the rerecorded edition of her 2012 record featuring previously unheard new tracks “from the vault.” It was the second rerecorded album she released after music managerScooter Braunacquired the rights to her catalogin June 2019.
