Taylor Swift fans believe 'The Tortured Poets Department' to be included in Eras Tour

Swifties believe the Eras tour will resume this May with elements of "TTPD" incorporated into it


Pop Culture & Art April 26, 2024

Taylor Swift fans, also known as Swifties, are convinced the pop superstar is making changes to her ongoing Eras Tour. 

The Grammy winner's recent YouTube Shorts featuring 'The Tortured Poets Department' (TTPD) content have sparked speculation that she might add songs from her eleventh studio album to the setlist.

 


One particularly telling detail is a rehearsal clip where Swift leans against a TTPD sign, and dancers sport top hats – a visual mirroring the "Fortnight" music video.  "[This] is ALL NEW," commented a fan on the clip.

Fans believe Swift may start incorporating elements of TTPD into the tour when it resumes in Paris this May. Swift herself described "Fortnight" as highlighting themes like "fatalism...longing, pining away, lost dreams," which pervade the new album.

The excitement is understandable, as TTPD has shattered records. Its extended Anthology edition reached 1 billion Spotify streams in less than a week, fueled by the success of "Fortnight," a collaboration with Post Malone. 

Swift has praised Malone's songwriting and musical innovation.
