Taylor Swift’s highly anticipated The Life of a Showgirl is out on streaming platforms, and the showgirl is definitely at a high point in her life.
The brand new album marks a stark contrast to her previous The Tortured Poets Department, switching from piano ballads to more pop tracks.
In the tracks, the collaborative efforts of Max Martin, Shellback along with her determination to make “bangers” as she hinted in the New Heights podcast announcement episode appears to have come true.
A majority of the songs seem to be hinting to her romance with her National Football League fiancé, as she gushes about being in love again.
"This album is about what was going on behind the scenes in my inner life during this tour, which was so exuberant and electric and vibrant," Swift had said describing the album during the announcement episode.
The Life of a Showgirl has stuck true to its maker’s claims as the tracks are definitely upbeat and punchy in terms of its lyrics and beats, shining a light on her life under the spotlight, as well as her beloved soon-to-be husband.
Yes, Sabrina Carpenter is featured on the title track, and can be heard singing some verses alone as well as some with Taylor.
