Taylor Swift yoinks the iTunes Canada top spot with eight seconds of white noise

22 October 2014, 11:45 | Written by Laurence Day

Taylor Swift has claimed the top spot in the iTunes Canada chart with eight seconds of static, dubbed "Track 3". Perhaps Swift is aiming to give Aphex Twin a run for his money.

Slate reports that it's a snippet of a new track.

Presumably it's a marketing ploy, but still - how many people have got the eight seconds of white noise stashed in their iPhones now? That's gonna be a bugger on shuffle.

Taylor Swift is currently thundering along a marketing campaign for her 1989 album, set to drop this month. Yesterday (21 October), she released the latest track and album opener "Welcome To New York".

Watch the must-see clip below.
