There was something different with folklore. In making it, I felt less like I was departing and more like I was returning. I loved the escapism I found in these imaginary\/not imaginary tales. I loved the ways you welcomed the dreamscapes and tragedies and epic tales of love lost and found into your lives. So I just kept writing them.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The singer went on to say that she collaborated with Aaron Dessner, Jack Antonoff, WB &#8211; the pseudonym for her boyfriend of three years, Joe Alwyn &#8211; and Justin Vernon. &#8220;We\u2019ve also welcomed some new (and longtime) friends to our musical kitchen table this time around,&#8221; she teased.<\/p>\n<p>In a follow-up post, Swift wrote that she wanted to give back to her fans for her 31st birthday. &#8220;Ever since I was 13, I\u2019ve been excited about turning 31 because it\u2019s my lucky number backwards, which is why I wanted to surprise you with this now,&#8221; she captioned her post.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_182496\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-182496\" style=\"width: 1024px\" class=\"wp-caption alignfull -width\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-182496 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/graziamagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/130824839_203899464564474_7747745918851091351_n.jpg\" alt=\"Taylor Swift\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1280\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-182496\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Credit: Instagram \/ @taylorswift<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>&#8220;You\u2019ve all been so caring, supportive and thoughtful on my birthdays and so this time I thought I would give you something!
