Swift answered questions from fans about the album from SiriusXM Hits 1 listeners. Asked if the album contains upbeat material, Swift said, ‘Yes, absolutely.

‘The concept of the album Midnights is the extreme emotions you might be feeling in the middle of the night,’ she said. ‘What keeps you up at night? And so, it’s reflecting back on certain nights of my life of why I was awake in the middle of the night.’

Swift said the material covers a range of emotions ‘from grief to sadness, to fear, to anger, to flirtation or daydreaming about someone, or falling in love or feeling overconfident.

She added: ‘You know, it’s, I think it’s just a really intense time of day. So, I wanted to cover lots of different aspects of that.’ 

Swift said that good dance songs on the album include Karma, Lavender Haze and Vigilante S***.

She added: ‘Nothing is left over from a different album. It might have been, you know, ideas or concepts or things I’ve thought of maybe making in the past, but I didn’t write anything until I was making this album.’

Swift said it is a ‘fun thing’ for her to reflect back on past work.

‘That all does usually lead to something, but you know, if we’re reflecting back on eras past and music that I’ve made in the past, I think you’ll find that there’s a really good reason for that,’ she said. ‘But it doesn’t necessarily have to do with this album.’
