Taylor Swift fans are seemingly always on the hunt for new information about whatever Swift is working on, and they may have just struck gold, because Swift just shared a pretty significant clue about the title of her upcoming album.
In a new interview with The Independent, the interviewer asked how many clues about the album title there are in the “ME!” video, and Swift responded, “I think you see it once and you hear it twice.” This has led a healthy amount of Swift fans online to believe that Swift essentially confirmed the album will be called Lover. The word “lover” is in the “ME!” lyrics two times, and at one point in the video, a “Lover” neon sign can be seen on a building in the background.
In the eyes of many fans, there is essentially no doubt that the album is definitely called Lover:

so if we see it once and hear it twice the album has to be called Lover, right????

Us: Lover is too obvious! It can’t be that.

Elsewhere in the conversation, Swift spoke about what she hopes fans take away from “ME!,” saying, “I wanted them to see that I’m heading in a different direction musically than they’ve seen in the past few years. This song was to change expectations and be a bit of a palette cleanser before they hear more of this new project. Plus, the chorus just makes me happy and lifts my mood when I sing it. I never want to be presumptuous, but I hoped it might do the same for someone who’s having a sh*tty day.”
