Another day, another Midnights track title reveal. Taylor Swift has unveiled track 11’s title as ‘Karma’, which is sure to get longtime fans talking.
The pop star continued the Midnights Mayhem with Me countdown on TikTok with an eight track title, leaving just five more to be revealed from the upcoming album.
‘Karma’ follows ‘Bejeweled’, ‘Anti-Hero’, ‘Maroon’, ‘Midnight Rain’, ‘Question…?’, ‘Vigilante Shit’, and ‘Mastermind’ in being unveiled as title tracks from Midnights.
While Swift was quiet in discussing the meaning behind ‘Karma’, she was much more forward regarding ‘Anti-Hero’ earlier this week. “Track three, ‘Anti-Hero’, is one of my favourite songs I’ve ever written,” she divulged. “I really don’t think I’ve delved this far into my insecurities in this detail before.”
“I struggle a lot with the idea that my life has become unmanageably sized. Not to sound too dark, but I just struggle with the idea of not feeling like a person — don’t feel bad for me, you don’t need to. But this song really is a real guided tour through all the things I tend to hate about myself; we all hate things about ourselves.
“It’s all of those aspects of the things we dislike and like about ourselves that we have to come to terms with if we’re going to be this person,” Swift added about the sixth track. “I like ‘Anti-Hero’ a lot because I think it’s really honest.”
As well as track titles, Swift has also recently teased the return of frequent collaborator Jack Antonoff, and shared the artwork for vinyl pressings of Midnights.
