Midnights by Taylor Swift has leapt to the number two position in the albums chart following the release of The Till Dawn Edition, the Official Charts Company has said.
The new version of the album includes a remix of Karma with American rapper Ice Spice, an updated recording of the Lana Del Rey collaboration Snow On The Beach and new track Hits Different.
Swift revealed to her fans that The Till Dawn Edition could be pre-ordered in a post that announced the release of a new special edition CD with an unheard track called You’re Losing Me, which she said would only be available for purchase at shows in East Rutherford, New Jersey.
Following its release last October, Midnights debuted at number one in the charts and became Spotify’s most streamed album in a single day.
