Taylor Swift's mythical 'lost album' is a collection of songs that she reportedly worked on before releasing her highly successful album '1989'. Speculation about the album began after Swift released her sixth studio album, 'reputation', in 2017, which was significantly different in tone and style from '1989'. Many fans speculated that the 'lost album' may have been more pop-oriented like '1989', while others believed it could have been country-based. The album is said to have been titled 'Woodvale' after fans spotted a mysterious word on Swift's 'folklore' and 'evermore' album covers, but Swift later revealed that it was a mistake and not a hint at a new album title.
