Taylor Swift has revealed she will release another surprise album, her ninth, titled Evermore at midnight on Friday.
The singer, 30, took to Twitter to announce the good news with her fans, saying she 'just kept writing' following the release of her first surprise album Folklore in July, and couldn't wait to share the new music and video for her first single Willow.
Sharing a photo taken for the album artwork, she wrote in a candid statement: 'I'm elated to tell you that my 9th studio album, and folklore's sister record, will be out tonight at midnight eastern. It's called evermore.
'To put it plainly, we just couldn't stop writing songs. To try and put it more poetically, it feels like we were standing on the edge of the folklorian woods and had a choice: to turn and go back or to travel further into the forest of this music.
'We chose to wander deeper in. I've never done this before. In the past I've always treated albums as one-off eras and moved onto planning the next one after an album was released. There was something different with folklore.'
Detailing how much she loved Folklore, she went on: 'In making it, I felt less like I was departing and more like I was returning. I loved the escapism I found in these imaginary/not imaginary tales.
'I loved the ways you welcomed the dreamscapes and tragedies and epic tales of love lost and found into your lives. So I just kept writing them.

Referring to her birthday on December 13, she went on: 'Ever since I was 13, I've been excited about turning 31 because it's my lucky number backwards, which is why I wanted to surprise you with this now.
'You've all been so caring, supportive and thoughtful on my birthdays and so this time I thought I would give you something!
'I also know this holiday season will be a lonely one for most of us and if there are any of you out there who turn to music to cope with missing loved ones the way I do, this is for you.'
