The Tortured Poets Department & The Five Stages of Heartbreak

After listening to Taylor Swift’s eleventh studio album, The Tortured Poets Department, for the last few months, we decided to revisit the five playlists created back in April as a way to promote the project. While prior to the release we initially discussed these playlists and the songs they included, back then we promised to have another look once the new tracks from TTPD and the anthology had been added. We go through each stage of heartbreak and discover which songs made it into each - or in one case sadly didn’t seem to make the cut at all! We also briefly make reference to Taylor’s strange roll-out of TTPD’s second single.
