Taylor Swift shared insights into the significance of her upcoming album, “The Tortured Poets Department,” during the first night of her three concerts in Melbourne, Australia.
She highlighted the value she places on incorporating her personal experiences into her songwriting process.
As she sat at the grand piano under the spotlight in the bustling arena, Taylor openly shared how she reignited her passion for songwriting and its profound impact on her life while curating the track list for her upcoming 11th studio album.
In expressing her thoughts on the creation of “The Tortured Poets Department,” the 34-year-old Grammy winning singer, revealed the significance of songwriting for this particular album.
Describing it as a “brand new album,” she informed her Australian audience that it took two years to finalize, announcing it at the 2024 Grammys ceremony.
Fans following the timeline of TTPD’s creation speculate that the lyrics will delve into her breakup from Joe Alwyn, which became public in April 2023 following a six-year relationship.
Taylor also teased an “exclusive cover” for “The Tortured Poets Department” that had yet to be revealed, catching the audience’s attention as it appeared on the screen behind her.
Beware Joe Alwyn
Following this reveal, the 14-time Grammy recipient treated the crowd to an exceptional performance of her unreleased track “You’re Losing Me,” sparking excitement among fans who interpreted the song as reflecting on her rumored breakup with her British ex-boyfriend.
After the widespread circulation of videos showcasing Taylor Swift’s impactful speech and electrifying performance in Melbourne, individuals across various online platforms began to point fingers at Joe.
With new clues hinting at the possible revelation of the truth behind their separation in April, internet users couldn’t resist speculating further about the situation.
According to the OK magazine, “In Joe Alwyn’s moment of greatest fragility, Taylor Swift picked up a guitar and a piano and sang ‘Red’ and ‘You’re Losing Me’ in addition to announcing ‘The ‘Tortured Poets Department.'”
“SHE PLAYED ‘YOU’RE LOSING ME’ AND ANNOUNCED A NEW TTPD BONUS TRACK. AND ITS CALLED ‘THE BOLTER.’ BOLTER IS SOMEONE WHO RUNS AWAY. THIS ALL MAKES SO MUCH SENSE NOW. Joe Alwyn, be careful out there.”

Lonely Despite Dating Joe
At the same “Eras” Tour performance in Melbourne, Australia, Taylor Swift opened up about the emotional journey she experienced while creating her album “Folklore.”
Despite being in a relationship with Joe Alwyn during that time, the “Lavender Haze” singer shared that she felt a sense of sadness during the writing process.
Reflecting on her time in quarantine amid the coronavirus pandemic in early 2020, Taylor expressed how she grappled with loneliness as she poured her heart into the music.
Per Page Six, she said, “[I was] imagining that, instead of being a lonely millennial woman covered in cat hair drinking my weight in white wine, I was a ghostly Victorian lady wandering through the woods with a candle in a candlestick holder, and I wrote only on parchment with a feathered quill.”
“That was in my mind, what I thought I looked like writing ‘Folklore.'”
The “Anti-Hero” songstress added, “That is not what I looked like … So that’s all that matters – the delusion.”
During the creation of her album “Folklore,” Taylor was deeply involved in a long-term relationship with Joe.
