New York, New York - Taylor Swift has launched The Tortured Poets Department era with a look back on her past work – providing some surprising confessions in the process.

The 34-year-old pop star teamed up with Apple Music on Friday to share five playlists meant to represent the five stages of grief – denial, anger, bargaining, depression, and acceptance.

But here, grief is not connected to a loss of life but instead to the loss of a relationship and the challenging process of recovering from heartbreak.

Each playlist title borrows a tagline from one of Swift's variant editions of The Tortured Poets Department, which is due out later this month.

The first playlist, representing denial, is titled "I Love You, It's Ruining My Life" and includes songs like Wildest Dreams, Lover, and Lavender Haze.

In a message attached to the playlist, Swift said that the songs connect to the experience of "getting so caught up in the idea of something that you have a hard time seeing the red flags."

This compilation – which features plenty of sentimental tracks assumed to be about her ex, Joe Alwyn – has again hinted at the new album's forthcoming revelations about what went wrong in the six-year romance before it came to an end last April.

Seeing songs like Sweet Nothing – which was co-written by Swift and Alwyn – on the "denial" playlist sent shockwaves through the singer's fandom, to say the very least, and it has sent anticipation for the new album into overdrive.

Further revelations came from the "bargaining" playlist titled "Am I Allowed to Cry?" thanks to the inclusions of Cornelia Street, peace, and The Great War.

The songs are famously connected to the Grammy winner's romance with Alwyn, touching on the many near-ends of the relationship amid the outside pressure her career has brought forth.
