What has Taylor Swift said about Evermore?
Taylor took to Instagram to reveal her album on December 10, 2020.
This is what she had to say about Evermore: "I’m elated to tell you that my 9th studio album, and folklore’s sister record, will be out tonight at midnight eastern.
"It’s called evermore. To put it plainly, we just couldn’t stop writing songs.
"To try and put it more poetically, it feels like we were standing on the edge of the folklorian woods and had a choice: to turn and go back or to travel further into the forest of this music.
"We chose to wander deeper in. I’ve never done this before.
"In the past I’ve always treated albums as one-off eras and moved onto planning the next one after an album was released.
"There was something different with folklore.
"In making it, I felt less like I was departing and more like I was returning.
"I loved the escapism I found in these imaginary/not imaginary tales.
"I loved the ways you welcomed the dreamscapes and tragedies and epic tales of love lost and found into your lives. So I just kept writing them."
