Taylor Swift is back at it again with another effortlessly cool, Twin Peaks-esque TikTok video revealing a song from her upcoming album tracklist! For anyone who may live under a rock, the Grammy winner, 32, has been taking the internet and video-sharing platform by storm for the past few weeks with a series she dubbed “Midnights Mayhems With Me.”
In each video, Swift dons a chic ensemble as she sits before a brown velvet curtain and on a purple chair of the same material. While announcing one song title off her forthcoming record Midnights in each clip, Swift has also been channeling 90s glam with each outfit, her stance, and video vision— and Swifties can’t get enough.

Our favorite look from the series has to be her September 26th upload, in which the “cardigan” singer rocked a cute white, off-the-shoulder button-down top with a peplum hemline, gray trousers and a shiny gold manicure. As the TikTok opened, Swift welcomed viewers to another episode of her series, and said, “I’m about to unveil another track off the Midnights album, here we go.” She then turned a handle on a metal wire cage containing ping-pong balls, as one rolled out at the bottom.
How it works is that each white ball is labelled with a song title from her long-awaited tenth studio album. In this video, Swift announced that the seventh track off her LP is called “Question…?” (which totally fit the mysterious vibe fans think she is going for!)

The “Lover” hitmaker brushed out her signature long, blonde, wavy tresses for an even more voluminous look, and elegantly swooped her bangs off to the side. As for makeup, the Red (Taylor’s Version) songwriter added her iconic black cat-eye eyeliner wing to emphasize her blue eyes, rosy blush on her cheekbones, and a reddish-brown lipstick color (that we think is absolutely perfect for fall).

At the MTV Video Music Awards back in August, Swift first told fans that she had a new album on the way, and has been effectively teasing it ever since. Her TikTok followers now know the titles of all thirteen tracks on the record, and that she will be collaborating with Lana Del Rey for the fourth one! The full tracklist is as follows:
1. Lavender Haze
2. Maroon
3. Anti-Hero
4. Snow on the Beach [ft. Lana Del Rey]
5. You’re On Your Own, Kid
6. Midnight Rain
7. Question…?
8. Vigilante S—t
9. Bejeweled

On October 21st, fans will be able to finally hear these songs, and many online have been theorizing that the eleventh track, titled “Karma,” is related to her 2016 feud with Kanye West and Kim Kardashian. That title spawned countless fan theories over the years that suggested that Swift had a secret record from 2016 of the same name. As one fan even pointed out, the album will be released on Kardashian’s birthday.

Swift has described the album on Instagram to be composed of the “stories of 13 sleepless nights scattered throughout [her] life.” She also recently unveiled the album cover, which shows a photo of her rocking sparkly blue eyeshadow, a 60s black liner cat-eye, contour across her cheekbones, a red lip and holding a lighter. As Swifties know, the ever-so-clever singer will be giving more Easter eggs, clues and hints about Midnights on her social media accounts, so we’re staying tuned for more info until the record comes out!
