Taylor Swift has once again exceeded expectations with her latest release. Despite the already high anticipation for her new album, *The Tortured Poets Department*, she surprised everyone by expanding it from a 16-track standard version to a 31-track double album. The unexpected release occurred at 2AM Eastern Time on Friday morning.
While many expected just a few bonus tracks for *The Tortured Poets Department*, Swift delivered an additional fifteen songs under the title *The Tortured Poets Department: The Anthology*. This sudden expansion ignited a frenzy on the internet. Fans who were winding down after listening to the original album, which ran for about an hour and five minutes, found themselves staying up much later than anticipated to explore the new tracks.
