Swift's seventh album Lover dropped today (23 August).
The record features eight songs co-written with Jack Antonoff, and an unexpected co-writing credit from Annie Clark, aka St. Vincent, on "Cruel Summer".

Celebrating the album release on Twitter, Swift wrote, "This album is very much a celebration of love, in all its complexity, coziness, and chaos. It’s the first album of mine that I’ve ever owned, and I couldn’t be more proud."
