Taylor Swift Releases New Single "Look What You Made Me Do"

After three teasers, an album cover reveal and countless snake emojis, the wait is finally over: Taylor Swift has officially dropped her new single, "Look What You Made Me Do."

As promised, the singer released her fresh tune promptly at midnight Friday on iTunes (Aug. 25). Unlike previous Swift singles, "Look What You Made Me Do" is fairly dark, both sonically and lyrically. Foreboding synths, eerie piano chords and a skittering beat rub up against old-timey sounds as Swift sings about karma, people who "laugh when they lie" and a list of names that she keeps.

"The world moves on another day, another drama-drama, but not for me, not for me, all I think about is karma," she says in a half-rapped tone, reminiscent of Fergie, at one point. "Maybe I got mine but you'll all get yours."


"Look What You Made Me Do" is the first single from Swift's forthcoming sixth album, Reputation, which will be released Nov. 10 and is the follow-up to 2014's album of the year winner, 1989.
