Additional Surprise For Fans Of Taylor Swift
It’s been quite the 24 hours for Swift, who released a deluxe ‘3 a.m.’ edition of the album with seven bonus tracks and dropped a music video for ‘Anti-Hero’ on Friday morning. Before the album came out, Swift also appeared on Amazon Prime Video. On ‘Thursday Night Football’ she teased the rest of the album’s music videos. The MV star the Haim sisters, album producer Jack Antonoff, Laura Dern, Pat McGrath, Mike Birbiglia, John Early and Dita Von Teese.
‘Midnights’ has garnered rave reviews, with Variety‘s Chris Willman writing: “With the first pulse of the first track, ‘Midnights’ is back at the oasis of pop music steeped in synthesizers and programmed beats, not acoustic instruments and high-string guitars. She’s returned to what at this point counts as her most familiar stylistic home — a mostly electronic bed of sounds that, for the length of this album, anyway, is coming back stronger than a ‘90s trend, to borrow a phrase.”
