Most of the things Taylor Swift had planned for the summer of 2020 didn\u2019t end up happening but\u2026 there was something magical that did happen, the surprise release of her 8th<\/sup> studio album, ‘folklore’.\u00a0<\/em>The album can be streamed and downloaded herehere<\/a>.<\/strong><\/h4>\n

\u201cBefore this year I probably would\u2019ve overthought when to release this music at the \u201cperfect\u201d time, but the times we\u2019re living in keep reminding me that nothing is guaranteed,\u201d said Taylor. \u201cMy gut telling me that if you make something you love, you should just put it out into the world. That\u2019s the side of uncertainty I can get on board with.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
