Bob Dylan's Supergroup Scores A New Hit Album, Decades After Splitting Up
Of all the supergroups in rock music history, one stands out as particularly memorable. Thanks to the two projects the band produced during the few years it was together — and the superstars who formed it — the Traveling Wilburys truly put the 'super' in supergroup.
The band included George Harrison, Jeff Lynne, Tom Petty, Bob Dylan, and Roy Orbison. Expectations were high before the act debuted, and the celebrated composers and songwriters didn't miss with either of the two albums released between 1988 and 1990. Decades after the band split, the first of those titles is enjoying a sudden surge in activity, as fans in the United Kingdom continue to purchase it and show their love.
Traveling Wilburys Vol. 1 Debuts
Traveling Wilburys Vol. 1 opens at No. 32 on the Official Album Downloads chart this week. The project becomes just the second release from the supergroup that has appeared on the ranking, which looks only at the most successful titles on platforms like iTunes and Amazon within the U.K.
Almost 20 Years Since Its Last Appearance
It's been almost two decades since the Traveling Wilburys last showed up on the Official Album Downloads chart. Collection, which the group released long after it was no more, hit No. 2 on that tally after debuting in the summer of 2007.
A Triple Chart Return for the Wilburys
As Traveling Wilburys Vol. 1 debuts on the downloads list, it also reenters both the Official Albums Sales and Official Physical Albums charts, landing at Nos. 77 and 93, respectively. The full-length reaches a new high point on the Official Albums Sales ranking as it finds its way back. The full-length opened at No. 81 in February 2023 and is now back and bigger than ever.
A Companion Collection Reappears
Fans of the Traveling Wilburys — or followers of any of the five legendary musicians in the lineup — have also returned to the simply-titled Collection. As Traveling Wilburys Vol. 1 opens on the Official Album Downloads chart, Collection reappears on the same ranking, coming in just two spaces below the new arrival at No. 34.
Collection originally opened in the runner-up spot in June 2007, when it ran on that tally for a month. The set returned a decade later, and now — eight years after that — it's back inside the top 40 once again.

‘Justice on Trial' review: Judge Judy's speeches about legal principles are out of step with the moment
'Judge Judy' aired in syndication for 25 years before star Judy Sheindlin pulled up stakes and moved to Amazon to do a similar (but lesser) version of the series called 'Judy Justice.' That kind of multi-decade success has allowed her to build a mini-TV empire in the latter portion of her career, producing (though not appearing on) shows including 'Hot Bench' and 'Tribunal Justice.' But she's back in front of the camera for her latest series, called 'Justice on Trial.' The premise is straightforward: With Sheindlin presiding as judge and attorneys Larry Bakman and Dan Mentzer as the attorneys facing off, a real court case is recreated on a television set, moot court-style, and interspersed with dramatic recreations of the crime itself. It's a ripped-from-the-headlines sensibility. 'While we're not going to recreate the trials verbatim, all the courts' ultimate decisions are accurate,' Sheindlin says at the top of each episode. 'It will be up to you to decide whether the case was fair and the outcome just.' The show's tagline: 'Real cases. Actual lawyers. Surprising verdicts.' To assess the series, it's worth thinking about why the original 'Judge Judy' remained popular for so long. The schadenfreude of watching her tear into someone who was refusing to take responsibility was a big factor. But I always liked that the show featured a cross section of Americans whose lives are rarely given much attention on TV. Grievances and interpersonal clashes of the poor and working class were taken just as seriously as anyone else's. All were equal before the withering gaze of Judge Judy. The show was shamelessly tacky, which was perhaps some of the appeal as well, which has only gotten more pronounced with her subsequent efforts. Perhaps 'Justice on Trial' is an effort to combat some of that, because instead of exploiting yet another interpersonal conflict for ratings, the intention here seems focused on helping laypeople understand why, as Sheindlin says in every intro, 'justice doesn't always end up feeling just.' She's trying to explain how the law works. Sure. Fine. Great. But the context in which the show is premiering makes this a surreal project, where legal rights and principles we were once told were sacrosanct are being eroded. It's hard to take anything Sheindlin says seriously, considering the real-world backdrop we're currently living through. A disclaimer runs at the beginning of each episode: 'Although some details have been altered, the outcomes are very real.' What details have been altered, and why? No information is forthcoming. Some of the cases are more interesting than others. The most fascinating, from the late 1980s, involves an abusive father who is also a diplomat from Zimbabwe who claims he can't be prosecuted because he has diplomatic immunity. Sheindlin actually ruled on the case before it was appealed to a higher court. The man is accused of beating his 9-year-old son and the details are gruesome; the boy says he was tied up by the arms and whipped, sometimes with a belt or electrical cord. His mother and sister were allegedly forced to watch. When he collapsed at school, child protective services removed him from the home. The father is seeking his son's return. According to international law, Shiendlin says, 'high-level diplomats are not subject to the laws of the foreign country where they serve. So they cannot be prosecuted for the crimes they commit. But what about the rights of a child from Zimbabwe living in America and being abused by his father?' The reasons why diplomats have immunity are explained and they make sense, but Sheindlin's researchers either could not or didn't bother to follow up and see if they could find out what fate ultimately befell the boy in the years since the case was decided. Another case involves a traffic stop that led to the discovery of a dead body. The issue at hand concerns evidence that is considered 'fruit of the poisoned tree' (a conflict beloved by 'Law & Order' writers for decades). Another case centers on a lawsuit that argues hate speech is not protected under free speech. These are all good debates. In theory. But ultimately, this feels like such a hacky exercise. In one dramatic recreation, someone drinking wine gets so upset, their hand contracts into a fist, crushing the glass they're holding. I've never seen this happen in real life, but more to the point, it's silly. The courtroom set and lighting are similar enough to that of the other shows Sheindlin produces that it's likely they're just being repurposed for this series. The judges from 'Hot Bench' are the appellate court. The overall vibe is: Sure, we're doing this on a budget in an artificial setting — with extras in the gallery as audience — but viewers are meant to take this seriously. The aesthetics, however, are that of a grimier show. 'Justice on Trial' — 2 stars (out of 4) Where to watch: Amazon

44 Genius Kitchen Products That'll Change Your Life

Definitely worth it if you're tired of bent spoons!" —amysGet it from Amazon for $24.59+ (available in five colors; be sure to clip the 18% off coupon when applicable).

Promising review: "We love our new strip lights so much that I decided to buy a second set. The first one was installed above the kitchen cabinets, where we placed some artwork and vases. The second set was placed under the kitchen island top. Grandkids love speaking to Alexa to change the colors of the lights. Set up was extremely easy, and it works with the Alexa app." —junin07Get it from Amazon for $20.99+ (available in four lengths; be sure to clip the $4 off coupon when applicable). A set of silicone oven rack edge protectors, because it absolutely sucks when you're going to get something out of the oven and you burn your hands or forearms on those hot metal racks.

Check it out in this TikTok video by Rachel Meaders to see how easy it is to use review: "I had seen someone use this on TikTok and wasn't sure if it would be that good, but decided to try it.

Highly recommend." —Nathalee PorterGet it from Amazon for $24.99+ (available in 13 colors and with three or five blades). An expandable rack that wraps around your awkwardly shaped kitchen sink pipe, no problem. When you use this, you'll literally double the storage space in your cabinet. Can you say "miracle product"? Measures 15 inches long x 11.25 inches wide x 15 inches high and can expand to 25 inches review: "I'm so glad I bought this. I have a 24-inch vanity in my bathroom, and this fits perfectly. I have it extended to about 23 inches, and it holds sturdy, though I can see if you were to extend it to its full length, it gets weak in the middle. I liked it so much that I ordered another one for the kitchen. I got some clear bins to help organize bottles and other goodies I keep in the bath."—Marlene it from Amazon for $22.38 (available in three finishes; be sure to redeem the 10% off coupon). A clear, nonslip cutting board to go right onto your countertop when it comes time to chop up veggies and fruits.

A silverware sorter that fits a full 24-piece cutlery set but takes up half the space of a traditional organizer, freeing up a ton of storage in your drawer. BuzzFeed Shopping Editor Elizabeth Lilly has this and LOVES it: "I have VERY narrow kitchen drawers in my NYC one-bedroom apartment kitchen, and buying one of these organizers has transformed my cutlery drawer. I'm able to safely reach in and grab whatever I need (like a manual can opener for tuna salad or a mini whisk for a hot chocolate) without having to sift tools around."Promising review: "I have a tiny kitchen with only three drawers, so space is at a premium. My silverware organizer took up almost all of one drawer, so this organizer is a godsend. You can fit quite a few spoons, etc., in each slot. My beater attachments fit perfectly into the top two hollows. I will say I have to flip my forks over facedown in order to be able to shut and open my drawer, but then the drawer itself is kind of shallow. You NEED this if you have a small kitchen with few drawers!" —mialroGet it on Amazon for $8.99+ (available in two colors). A can of fire-extinguishing aerosol spray to keep near your cooking area in case you ever accidentally start a small cooking fire. The can is small enough to fit on a kitchen shelf, but strong enough to provide 32 seconds of firefighting time. Promising review: "Of course you never want to use something like this but I knew that we needed one in our new condo just in case. I was right! I was toasting taco shells in our large toaster and looked away for a moment. Smoke billowed first, and then it caught fire fast. My husband grabbed the device, aimed and sprayed for about five seconds. He stopped, and I barked for him to do it again because it caught one more time. There's no way I would have been able to toss a blanket up there, and a real extinguisher would have left the biggest mess. This was easy to clean up!" —Mamercs6 Get it from Amazon for $13.98. A sleek, magnetized dry-erase board for your fridge so you can stay on top of your tasks and grocery shopping list. You can easily keep track of all the eggs, blueberries, and bulk iced coffee concentrate you'll need for your next grocery run. Promising review: "I have it to write down things to buy.

I use a wet cloth when I don't want to use the eraser, and that works easy also." —Stephanie Rios Get it from Amazon for $16.99. A rapid egg cooker that'll cook up to six eggs any way you want. Poached? You got it. Hard-boiled? Done. It can even make omelets. Simply select your number of eggs and set the timer. When it's done it'll automatically shut off. Promising review: "I love hard-boiled eggs for protein, especially when I'm on the go as a student/worker but it's hard to wait for the water to boil then put In the eggs and get ready all at the same time. This cooker is amazing!! Saves me time, it's quick and I don't have to watch it while it cooks — I can go get ready and then I hear a loud buzzer notifying me when the eggs are done! (The buzzer is really loud; sounds like a basketball game buzzer.) I was surprised how fast the eggs cooked." —MeganGet it from Amazon for $18.99+ (available in six colors).Read more about the Dash Egg Cooker here. An automatic, odor-absorbing, sensor-activated trash can made of fingerprint-proof stainless steel. It's called a trash can, not a trash cannot. Promising review: "I bought this trash can eight years ago. At the time, it was hard to find any stainless-steel trash cans for an affordable price, so the fact that this was the most reasonable and it had the automated lid seemed like a pretty easy choice. It still looks great and works great. You can wave over the sensor to open the lid, or there is a button on the front of it to open the lid and keep it open. The lid does a great job of holding any odors in while it's closed." —SomniGet it from Amazon for $67.12+ (available in 11 styles). A granite and stone cleaner that'll make stone countertops that look dull and are sticky instead be shiny and bright. Not only will this restore yours to its former glory, but it's also a disinfectant that kills up to 99.9% of germs and bacteria.

Not only does it do a great job, but you can see it happening. It doesn't just mask the smell and leave a lemon scent like some products, it cleans too and looks fun. Idk. Blue foam comes out and that's good enough for me." —sylvie yahGet a two pack of four-count bags on Amazon for $11. A washable, reusable sponge in vibrant prints that you just throw in the dishwasher or washing machine to make them like new again. You'll save a nice chunk of change by not needing to buy new sponges every couple of weeks. Porter Lee's is a family-owned small business based in Portland, Oregon, that specializes in homemade reusable review: "So glad I finally found an environmentally friendly sponge THAT WORKS! I tried all the other kinds of eco-friendly sponges before these — silicon (don't work on stuck stuff), vegetable fiber (got so mildew-y so fast), and even crocheted (felt so gross and didn't work great). These do the job and then after a few days I just throw them in the wash! Hooray! And they're cute!" —willowbe041Get it from Porter Lee's on Etsy for $12+ (available in packs of one, three, five, and 10 and in four colors). A roll of bamboo towels if you're done spending money on single-use paper ones. These are soooo strong, and when they get yucky you can just throw them in the washing machine to make 'em like new again. A single roll replaces up to six months of paper towels. Promising review: "I've had these bamboo towels for a month now and am incredibly impressed with their performance! They're much larger than a regular paper towel, thicker, softer, and more absorbent. I've washed the first ones I've torn off the roll several times now, and they DO survive the laundry and perform just as well afterward. I've only used five bamboo towels this month, washed them, and re-used them. Several times. I would have been through a whole roll of Brawny by now. One you wash them, you're supposed to air dry them, so I haven't sent any through the dryer. And I haven't needed to, because allowing them to air dry has not affected the quality of the towels when I 're-roll' them!" —A. ClarkGet a roll from Amazon for $9.99 (also available in packs of two and four). A cleaning kit to remove all the burnt food and gunk that's residing on your glass stovetop. It comes with a soft pad for everyday messes and a hardcore scraper if something doesn't want to budge. The kit comes with a bottle of cleaner, a cleaning pad, and a heavy-duty scraper, all designed to break down burnt-on foods and tough stains. Promising review: "As soon as I used this stuff, I couldn't believe it! We had a new stove that I didn't clean for months and assumed the burnt pea juice (my enemy) would just be a new stain forever. However, after one application, it was basically gone. I used the scraper that came with it and did one more small application on just that spot, and it was gone! Every time I use this it looks like my stove could be brand-new." —Christi LambertsonGet it from Amazon for $14.98. A handheld veggie spiralizer if you're trying to incorporate more produce into your meals and want a fun way to do it. With just a few twists, an ordinary carrot, cucumber, zucchini, squash, or potato can be turned into veggie spaghetti and more. Promising review: "I love veggie noodles because they're faster to cook than regular noodles, healthier, and super delicious! Before this device, I would buy the pre-spiralized ones at the store for a huge markup, but this device is so quick and easy to use it's no extra trouble to do it myself, plus it's fresher!" —PhobGet it from Amazon for $11.99. A universal descaling solution that'll have your single-cup coffee and espresso machine in tip-top shape in no time. It'll remove limescale and other hard water mineral deposits and prevent corrosion, so basically, the whole shebang. It's compatible with all single-use coffee and espresso machines, like Keurig, Nespresso, Delonghi, Hamilton Beach, Braun, Bunn, Cuisinart, Tassimo, Krups, Saeco and review: "I had never even thought of descaling my 2-year-old Keurig before Amazon suggested it, but this stuff was cheap, I knew I was supposed to descale regularly, and I knew this kind of descaler wouldn't be as hard to rinse out as the smell of vinegar. I honestly wasn't expecting much, but the next morning it took much less time for the water to heat up and my coffee tasted twice as strong and rich as it did before descaling, which means the brewing temperature is higher now that the heating element isn't caked with mineral deposits. Now I feel a little silly for drinking mediocre coffee for so long." —LenoreGet it from Amazon for $9.99+ (also available in a pack of two). An anti-fatigue, ergonomic kitchen mat to make sure you can be comfortable on your feet while you work in the kitchen. It's also waterproof and cushioned, so it's basically the perfect rug if you stand in one place in the kitchen for long periods of time (like dishwashing at the sink). Promising review: "Wish I would have gotten this years ago. As my back gets worse with time (and my age) standing to do dishes was starting to be far too uncomfortable. This makes me feel as if nothing is wrong with my back. It's wonderful. Comfortable and stays where you put it. Almost wish I could have this put down as a carpeting in my whole house. I love it." —cheyenne44Get it from Amazon for $10.99+ (available in seven colors and 12 sizes; be sure to redeem the 50% off coupon when applicable). A tub of the TikTok-famous Pink Stuff that's great if you want an all-purpose cleaning paste that can pretty much take on any stains, smudges, scruffs, and more on any hard surface. This is easily one of the most popular cleaning products out there — there are over 151,000 5-star reviews on Amazon for a reason. Promising review: "I added before and after photos of my filthy oven so you all would know this stuff is the real deal and worth it. I like that it didn't have a strong odor and it didn't use much effort at all to clean my oven. You can really see it removing the burnt-on grease after a few circular motions." —DNICEANDFAMGet it from Amazon for $5.97. A paper towel roll holder to literally stick to your wall or under the cabinet, all thanks to being backed with self-adhesive.

A food storage set with eight 30-ounce containers with lids, perfect for meal prepping. These are made out of thick glass that doesn't get that food stain fog like traditional plastic ones. Promising review: "Absolutely love this product! Makes storing and transporting my meals extremely easy and keeps everything fresh all week. Portion size is perfect. I fit a whole chicken breast plus rice in them with room to spare. The leak-proof design holds in freshness and gives me peace of mind when transporting them in my backpack. When all is done they are extremely easy to clean." —RHGet it on Amazon for $39.99 (available in two colors). A cabinet door organizer so your cutting boards and paper boxes (that hold aluminum foil, parchment, etc) don't take up countertop or drawer space, and instead are stored in a space that would otherwise go unused. Promising review: "This organizer is so useful! I recently moved and ended up with a much smaller kitchen, so I've been doing everything I can to make sure there's a place for everything and no wasted space. Luckily, I have pretty wide cabinets, so this works out perfectly. I have one holding my cutting boards (four standard plastic boards) and another holding my foil, cling wrap, and parchment paper boxes. The organizer is super easy to assemble, and it's completely versatile. Hang it over the cabinet door or attach it to the wall/cabinet door, which means it's great for renters and owners." —KerryGet it from Amazon for $17.97. A jar of Humble Suds' all-natural scour cleaning paste for taking on tough cleaning jobs like baked-on grime in the oven to removing difficult stains on your kitchen's grout.

A 15-piece set of airtight food containers, because your most-used pantry items deserve special containers that'll help prolong their freshness. Promising review: "I ordered this set to continue on the road to an organized pantry. There are enough containers and a variety of sizes to make me happy. I have stored pasta and noodles, dried beans, rice, sugar, instant mashed potatoes, crackers, etc. When I open a box of something, I put whatever is unused into one of the containers and feel very secure that the contents will be fresh and protected from any possible insect problems." —R MGet it from Amazon for $23.99+ (available in three colors). Or a 10-piece set of Oxo food storage containers if you want something with a little more pizzazz. Not only do they look great and make pantries so organized, but the airtight seal really does prolong the life of dried goods like pastas, flour, and chips. A set of magnetic glass spice jars if you have a ton of spices but nowhere to store them. Not only will this product fix that problem, but it looks cool, too! Promising review: "I am in love with my magnetic spice jars! I recently moved to a small apartment and don't have the counter or wall space to store spices or a spice rack, so magnetic jars it was! I love how these have a decorative feel while providing a secure way to store the spices. Unlike other magnetic spice jars, I feel that these add an extra flair to displaying your assorted spices." — a 12-pack of small jars from Amazon for $70+ (also available in 24 small jars, 12 large jars, and 24 large jars). An easy-to-use blender that can chop, mix, blend, whip, grind, and more. And because of its tiny size, it's the perfect fit for single servings like a smoothie or cup of salsa. Promising review: "I work in a vegan restaurant and use these once in a while for small amounts of dressings. So when I was in the market for a personal blender for smoothies and dressings/sauces for two, I knew I wanted this ... and boy, does it deliver! I love prepping the smoothies the night before in the containers. It's the perfect size for a small apartment, and it easily stores in the cabinet if you need to clear off the countertop." —BernadetteGet it from Amazon for $39.29+ (available in black or silver). A practical cereal dispenser for your countertop or in your pantry if you're really into cereal but not necessarily the various boxes it comes in.

The fact that they are so customizable allows you to cut them for any drawer size! I think this will be my go-to gift for all of my friends who love cooking as much as I do! Freeing up cabinet space and having something that can easily be rinsed off in the sink makes this a for-sure buy!" —momononoGet a 10-ft roll from Amazon for $16.99 (available in gray or sandstone). A garlic chopper to take on the time-consuming task of chopping or mincing garlic. You put up to five regular-size cloves in it and then use your hand to roll this thing on any smooth surface, and it chops it all up in a matter of seconds. If you want to mince it, you keep rolling for maybe 10 more seconds. It's seriously the best! Promising review: "Love! Love! Love the GarlicZoom! Mincing garlic has never been easier or more fun. It makes mince work out of garlic, onion, chilies, and herbs. I'm not sure what I love most about this little gadget. Not smelling stinky garlic fingers all night? No burning fingers or eyes from chopping a super hot chile? Or mincing fresh herbs in a blink of an eye. I have a problem wrist from an injury and an arm and hand that suffers from nerve damage. I can still manage to zoom this. When people ask if they can help in the kitchen, this is the chore that I give them, and everyone loves it. They think it's the neatest little thing." —Kennedy CollinsGet it from Amazon for $19.95. An ice cube tray with a lid to make over 200 tiny cubes without needing a bulky and expensive ice machine. Traditional ice cube trays only make 12 cubes, and because there's no lid, they can get gross and absorb the smells of other foodstuffs in your freezer. With this one, you plop the cubes into the bin when they're frozen, and use the lil' scoop to get ice whenever you need it. Promising review: "This was a really pleasing purchase, I first saw it on TikTok. Product was received as described and pictured. The ice cubes are small and cute. The bin can hold about four trays, a lil over 200 ice cubes — that's with the scoop inside as well. The entire product doesn't take up much freezer space… I almost forgot it was there. Overall good purchase." —Gee inghamGet it from Amazon for $13.97+ (available in three colors). A drip catcher for soaking up water splashes and puddles that form around your kitchen faucet. Make sure you never have pools of still water (a breeding ground for bacteria!) around your faucet again. Hustle & Sew is a woman-owned small business based in Saint Helens, Oregon making fabric goods for the review: "LOVE these splash catchers! They save me from having to chase the puddles that form around the base of our faucet before they start creeping over the counter. So reasonably priced, made well with neatly finished edges, and packaged with gift-ready care." —AlinaGet it from Hustle & Sew on Etsy for $13.50+ (available in four sizes and five colors). A set of fruit and vegetable containers for folks who love efficiency and a well-organized fridge. The containers are stored within their own colander, so you can drain your produce and then nestle them right in. There's an adjustable divider in each, so you can store multiple types of produce in one container. Each one has vents that can be adjusted for fruits (vent stays open) and veggies (vent stays closed). Oh, and they're airtight, which will prolong the life of whatever you're storing. Check out this TikTok by Selina to see them in use. Promising review: "I love this set. I've been trying to eat breakfast more and saw them all over TikTok! These make it so much easier to clean the produce and keep it crisp! Will be getting another set!" —Jane DoeGet it from Amazon for $27.99+ (available in six colors). A drink dispenser to keep your favorite drinks organized. As you pull a can or bottle out of the dispenser, it'll push all of the drinks behind it forward. Reviewers rave that it holds so many bottles while also freeing up a ton of fridge space. Check out Rachel Meaders' review on review: "This is a true 'TikTok made me buy it!' I saw this and thought I'd love to have it, but the price is pretty steep. I splurged, and I'm so glad I did. It has revolutionized the cleanliness and ease of our drink supply!!!! We always know where we are with stock, and it looks so clean. The best part is that it can be customized to fit almost any fridge. We could have even just had four rows on one shelf and four rows on another if we wanted to — the rows are so easy to separate and adjust! Do yourself a favor and bite the bullet on the purchase. You'll be so glad you did." —Jacqueline FoleyGet it from Amazon for $57.39+ (be sure to clip the 18% off coupon). A peel-and-stick yogurt holder that can go on the walls or ceiling of your refrigerator, which is otherwise space that would go unused. Promising review: "I had seen them on TikTok and immediately bought them because my yogurts always tip out of my refrigerator and splat all over the floor! They have been so great, now my yogurts stay and don't fall out." —Amazon CustomerGet it from Amazon for $14.99+ (available in packs of one or two). An under-cabinet lid opener so you never struggle to open a jar again. And because it mounts to the underside of your cabinet, it'll be out of sight and out of mind when you don't need it. And a wine rack that stacks one bottle on top of another. Because it goes up and not horizontal, you'll be utilizing the normally unused vertical space in your fridge, therefore freeing up more shelf space. Promising review: "Fantastic product. Sturdy and stacks very well. Holds the wine with no worries of anything falling apart or out of the rack itself. Looks beautiful, giving your fridge a great look of organization." —Amazon CustomerGet it from Amazon for $28.99.

Taylor Swift Fans Are Spiraling Over a Mysterious Instagram Countdown
Something appears to be coming. And by "something," I mean a new Taylor Swift Fans are convinced music is incoming thanks to several clues across social media, so in the interest of clowning, let's break it down. First up, Taylor Nation posted a listening party to Tay's self-titled album on July 18, with the event starting at 1 pm. This post seemingly kicked off a listening party countdown of sorts, with Taylor Nation posting one for Fearless on July 19 at 2:00 pm, then one for Speak Now on July 20 at 3:00 pm, and then one for Red on July 21 at 4 pm. In other words, they're posting one album at a time, one day apart, with listening parties one hour apart. It's clearly a countdown, BUT TO WHAT. Meanwhile, the caption to that ^ first post includes "Everything we need is finally right here by our side," which is a reference to Taylor's 12th song on the album. Which could be a clue that her 12th album is dropping? More details here: Of course, there's also a chance that Taylor is dropping Taylor's Version of debut, which she told fans she re-recorded in a letter about buying back her masters. "I've already completely re-recorded my entire debut album, and I really love how it sounds now," she said, adding that Debut and Reputation "can still have their moments to re-emerge when the time is right, if that would be something you guys would be excited about. But if it happens, it won't be from a place of sadness and longing for what I wish I could have. It will just be a celebration now." ANYWAY, guess we'll see what happens?
