Taylor Swift Shares Folklore Deluxe Version Featuring Bonus Track “The Lakes”
Photos by Beth GarrabrantAs it turns out, there’s more new Taylor Swift to love.
The singer shared a deluxe version of her new album folklore on Tuesday morning, and the extended tracklist features a bonus track called “the lakes.” You can listen below.
Swift announced the digital deluxe release on social media today. This all follows the July release of folklore, which dropped a mere 24 hours after Swift surprised fans with the announcement. We named folklore the best album of July.
New song “the lakes” was originally listed as a bonus track on the physical deluxe editions of the albums. It follows the same path as its sister songs on folklore: elegant, unfussy, paired-down and mostly acoustic. But it’s wordier than some of the other folklore tracks: “A red rose grew up out of ice frozen ground / With no one around to tweet it,” Swift deadpans. “While I bathe in cliffside pools / With my calamitous love and insurmountable grief.” Hang in there, Taylor!
