On social media, Swift went on to say that ever since her 13th birthday, she’s been excited about turning 31 since it’s her lucky number backwards. With fans always being so supportive and caring on her birthdays, she wanted to give them something. She also released the album’s tracklist, which comes with 15 tracks on the standard edition and two bonus tracks on the physical deluxe edition. All digital downloads of the album will also include an exclusive digital booklet with 16 brand new photos.
Ever since I was 13, I’ve been excited about turning 31 because it’s my lucky number backwards, which is why I wanted to surprise you with this now. You’ve all been so caring, supportive and thoughtful on my birthdays and so this time I thought I would give you something! pic.twitter.com/wATiVSTpuV

And because Swift is always coming out with surprises, in addition to evermore‘s release, she is dropping the music video for new song, “willow” at the same time. Swift will be in the YouTube premiere page chat before midnight to answer some questions from fans.
