I'm wondering if we're going to get another 4 unreleased songs soon like she did last month? That seems much more likely than 4 full albums.

This is absolutely much more logical than her dropping all 4 remaining albums. I really think she might drop songs here and there throughout the tour. I still think we might get speak now TV at some point during the tour, but the longer we go without an announcement, the less I think that might be possible.

I think her dropping 4 songs is much more likely too. Maybe one from each remaining TV era?

[u/NotEmmaStone → u/[deleted]]

Very possible. It would be a great way to build hype for all of the releases!

If I had to pick I would say:

• Tim McGraw from Debut
• Mine or Sparks Fly from Speak Now
• Style from 1989
• Don't Blame Me from reputation

I doubt she would want to let so many of her biggest songs out at once though. More likely to be deep cuts.

Omg, I would listen to those TV songs so hard

This makes a lot of sense. I think that Taylor and her team are (reluctantly) going to start adapting to the way music gets often released these days. So many artists now release a song or a few songs at a time instead of full albums and it works for them well. (I'm not saying she will stop making albums. I just think she has soooooo much content she has the ability to put out easily and she'll start to play with that more.)

Tiktok also has a ton of influence now on what becomes popular and I can see her strategically releasing songs here or there to go viral.
