The 'Shake It Off' star later confirmed that album track 'Welcome To New York' is the exciting song in question, which will be out on iTunes from midnight, and you can listen to the teaser above!
Taylor also recently dropped ‘Out Of The Woods’ but has said that that won’t be the next single from the album.
‘1989’ was inspired by songs from the ‘80s, and took Tay Tay two years to complete – and with tracks like ‘Welcome To New York’, it definitely showcases a different side to Ms Swift.
‘1989’ will be released on 27th October.
