Blue countdown signals Taylor Swift's sixth 'Showgirl' album: 'Baby, That's Show Business'
Taylor Swift has added another variant to her growing "The Life of a Showgirl" campaign. A shimmering blue countdown clock appeared on her website at 11 a.m. ET on Aug. 21, set to expire at 2 p.m. ET. This marks the third countdown in 10 days that sent Swifties into a frenzy of speculation. Some were hoping for a single release. The timer led to a sixth version of the album available for $29.99. Enter, "Baby, That's Show Business," in a first and only pressing limited run. The "lakeside beach blue sparkle" and "lovely bouquet golden" vinyls are available until Aug. 23 at 1:59 p.m. ET The sixth version is resurfacing the conversation on "Taycapitalism" with fans buzzing over growing fatigue: Influencer Dan Cashio posted a video with an empty threat: "I'm not engaging. You can take your glitter blue and you can... empty my bank account." Taylor Swift 'New Heights' podcast: All the biggest moments about her 'Showgirl' era 3... 2... 1... On Aug. 11, Swift launched a orange countdown leading to a "New Heights" tease followed by a purple one on Aug. 18 that unveiled her "Shiny Bug" variant. Both were four-hour timers. Swift announced her upcoming album, "The Life of a Showgirl," on "New Heights." The concept is the singer's life at the end of the night, after the Eras Tour wrapped. The 12 track album is produced by Max Martin and Shellback — the two Swedish masterminds behind her "1989" and "Reputation" albums — and includes a duet with Sabrina Carpenter. The album is out on Oct. 3. Don't miss any Taylor Swift news; sign up for the free, weekly newsletter This Swift Beat.

As A Beatles Fan, This Disney+ Release Is The Best News I've Gotten Since I Ditched My VCR
When you buy through links on our articles, Future and its syndication partners may earn a commission. Few musical acts in the history of pop culture have had quite the impact that the Beatles had. The Fab Four from Liverpool took the world by storm in the 1960s, and the group has been a mainstay of culture and a major influence ever since. Beatles' music is used in film all the time. We're even getting four movies about The Beatles very soon. It was a quarter century after the Beatles broke up that one of the major events in my life took place when I watched The Beatles Anthology special on television. As a teenager, I certainly knew the Beatles, but the Anthology series gave me an appreciation for the band I didn't have before. I became a huge Beatles fan soon after, buying all three albums that were associated with the project, and even getting the full eight-part series on VHS that Christmas. I owned the tapes for years after that, despite no longer owning a VCR to watch them on, but very soon I won't even need one anymore. The Beatles Anthology Is Finally Coming To Streaming On Disney+ All the Beatles' social media accounts had been teasing something big for the last few days, and it all seemed to be associated with The Beatles Anthology, the combination of album and documentary that was created three decades ago. Today, it was officially confirmed that a newly remastered version of the full series, with a brand new ninth episode, will debut on Disney+ on November 26. Needless to say, as somebody who considers this series a major moment in my musical history, I am thrilled. The Beatles Anthology was a remarkably comprehensive documentary, with new interviews from the, at the time, three remaining Beatles. If you want to know everything about one of the most influential bands ever, there's no better way. Alongside the streaming release, The Beatles Anthology music is getting rereleased, with a new fourth album, a new book has been produced, and the 'new' Beatles song 'Free as a Bird' has been remastered. The Disney+ Beatles Anthology Will Contain A New Episode And what's even better as a fan is that The Beatles Anthology has been expanded. Originally an eight-part series, the version hitting Disney+ in November will have a ninth part, which will act as a behind-the-scenes documentary on the production of The Beatles Anthology itself. It's the perfect way to cap everything off. Disney+ has become a fantastic place for music. From Elton John and Taylor Swift concerts to great documentaries on Abby Road and more. If you're a fan of lots of artists its worth having a Disney+ subscription, but perhaps none more than The Beatles. Your Disney+ subscription will already give you Beatles '64 about the band's first trip to America The Beatles: Get Back, Peter Jackson's documentary on the production of the historic Let It Be album, a remastered version of The Beatles: Let It Be documentary film. The Beatles Anthology will go nicely alongside these other pieces of history for serious fans. If there's a downside, it's that I'm about to go broke buying The Beatles on vinyl again.
