Get ready to cry, yell, and maybe even dance (in your pajamas) because Taylor Swift is here to help you navigate the messy world of heartbreak! Just before her new album, “The Tortured Poets Department,” comes out, Taylor released five special playlists on Apple Music. But these aren’t just any playlists – they’re like a guide through the five stages of getting over a breakup. So, grab your tissues (and maybe some ice cream), and let’s dive in!
The Breakup Boot Camp
Imagine a breakup boot camp, but instead of pushups, you have playlists to help you heal. That’s basically what Taylor has created! These playlists are called things like “I Love You; It’s Ruining My Life” and “Am I Allowed to Cry?” because, let’s be honest, those are the kinds of thoughts you have after a breakup.
Stage 1: Denial (I Can’t Believe This Is Happening!)
The first playlist is like being in shock. Songs like “Teardrops on My Guitar” and “State of Grace” might be on there, because you’re just trying to convince yourself everything is okay.
Stage 2: Anger (Someone Call the Breakup Police!)
Next comes the anger stage. This playlist might have songs like “We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together” and “Better Than Revenge” because sometimes you just need to scream-sing about how mad you are!
Stage 3: Bargaining (Okay, Maybe Just One Text…)
We’ve all been there. The stage where you’d do anything to get back together. This playlist might have songs like “Mine” and “Last Kiss” because a tiny part of you hopes things can go back to normal.
Stage 4: Sadness (The Couch is My New Best Friend)
This is the stage where you just feel down. Songs like “All Too Well” and “Long Live” might be here because you’re reminiscing about the good times and feeling super sad.
Stage 5: Acceptance (I’ll Be Okay, Eventually)
Finally, you start to feel a little better. This playlist might have songs like “Shake It Off” and her new song (from the album!), “I Can Do It With a Broken Heart” because you’re realizing you’re strong and you will get through this!
More Than Just Breakup Jams
These playlists are pretty awesome because they remind us that breakups are a normal part of life, and it’s okay to feel all the feels – the sad, the mad, the everything! Plus, it’s like a sneak peek at Taylor’s new album, “The Tortured Poets Department,” which is coming out on April 19th.
But Wait, There’s More!
This isn’t just about breakups. Taylor’s new album might explore other big emotions too. Fans think the songs might be about all sorts of things, like loss, change, and maybe even finding love again. We’ll have to wait and see when the album comes out!
So, what are you waiting for? Grab your headphones, put on your favorite PJs, and get ready to journey through heartbreak (and healing) with Taylor Swift’s new playlists! You might just learn a little something about yourself along the way.
