Taylor Swift Drops Four New Surprise Songs
2 Oct
Summary
- Swift released four new songs in September 2026.
- The new tracks are companion songs to her album.
- The article ranks all of Swift's bonus tracks.
In September 2026, Taylor Swift unveiled "The Encore," a collection of four new songs accompanying her album, The Life of a Showgirl. Swift explained these tracks were created spontaneously during a celebratory trip to Sweden with collaborators Max Martin and Shellback. This surprise release has inspired a detailed ranking of all of Swift's bonus tracks, reflecting her prolific songwriting career.
The article outlines specific criteria for identifying bonus tracks. Songs from deluxe editions are included, as are those added to the Midnights album via its various special editions. However, alternate versions like piano or acoustic renditions, and tracks from "The Anthology" of The Tortured Poets Department are excluded. The ranking focuses exclusively on bonus tracks from the first editions of Swift's studio albums, not her re-recordings.
