Taylor Swift’s ‘The Life of a Showgirl’ Retakes the Stage With ‘Encore’ Deluxe: Stream It Now

The project features four new songs.

Taylor Swift is back for one last twirl under the spotlight for The Life of a Showgirl, dropping four new songs as part of a deluxe version of her 12th studio album on Friday (Sept. 25).

Titled The Life of a Showgirl: Encore, the extended project adds tracks titled “Patient Zero,” “Babylon,” “Pink Clouding” and “Cleveland!” to the original set, which spent 12 weeks at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 and opened with a record-shattering 4.002 million equivalent album units in the United States in its first week. Swift first announced the deluxe just two days prior to its release, writing on Instagram, “About a year ago, you guys did a truly unfathomable thing … you gave The Life of a Showgirl the biggest first week for an album in history.”
