Taylor Swift has shared her joy after her new album Midnights broke Spotify’s record for the most-streamed album in a single day. 

Midnights was released on Friday and Spotify announced less than 24 hours later that it had broken the streaming record on their platform. 

Spotify tweeted: ‘And before the clock could even strike midnight on October 22nd, Taylor Swift broke the record for most-streamed album in a single day in Spotify history. Congratulations, @taylorswift13’.

Taylor was over the moon to amass the most streams an album has had in a single day in Spotify’s history, thanking fans for getting her the accolade. 

She tweeted: ‘How did I get this lucky, having you guys out here doing something this mind blowing?! Like what even just happened??!?!’

Taylor had stunned fans by announcing her new album in the closing moments of the 2022 MTV VMAs in August.

She described Midnights as the story of ‘13 sleepless nights scattered throughout my life’ and ‘a journey through terrors and sweet dreams’.

The synth-pop album was mostly written with Jack Antonoff, who Taylor has collaborated with several times before. 

She told fans on Instagram: ‘Midnights is a wild ride of an album and I couldn’t be happier that my co pilot on this adventure was @jackantonoff

‘He’s my friend for life (presumptuous I know but I stand by it) and we’ve been making music together for nearly a decade HOWEVER… this is our first album we’ve done with just the two of us as main collaborators. 

‘We’d been toying with ideas and had written a few things we loved, but Midnights actually really coalesced and flowed out of us when our partners (both actors) did a film together in Panama. 

‘Jack and I found ourselves back in New York, alone, recording every night, staying up late and exploring old memories and midnights past.’

Taylor added: ‘Midnights is a collage of intensity, highs and lows and ebbs and flows. Life can be dark, starry, cloudy, terrifying, electrifying, hot, cold, romantic or lonely. Just like Midnights. Which is out now.’
