Taylor Swift<\/a> is taking fans behind the curtain of The Life of a Showgirl with a new digital release.<\/p>\n

The pop star announced Monday (Oct. 6) that Swifties now have 24 hours to purchase special copies of her brand new album on iTunes, featuring exclusive voice memos recorded during her songwriting sessions with producers Max Martin and Shellback. \u201cBeing in the studio and creating these songs was an unforgettable experience,\u201d she wrote<\/a> on social media.<\/p>\n

\u201cBut luckily I don\u2019t ever have to forget it because I was recording while we were writing,\u201d Swift continued. \u201cAnd now it\u2019s a way to look back on the process and give you guys a glimpse into how we wrote these songs, and hear the moments we thought of these ideas in real time.\u201d<\/p>\n

The 14-time Grammy winner also included four photos of herself working on the album in Sweden. One snap finds her seemingly reading lyrics from her phone while Martin plays piano; another shows the singer wearing sunglasses and sticking her tongue out, posing with Martin and Shellback on either side of her.<\/p>\n

She added, \u201cThe Life of a Showgirl (DELUXE Alone In My Tower Acoustic Version) featuring \u2018The Life of a Showgirl\u2019 (Original Songwriting Voice Memos) Act 1 & Act 2 are available now on iTunes for 24 hours.\u201d<\/p>\n

The blink-and-you\u2019ll-miss-it sales periods have been a hallmark of Swift\u2019s Showgirl rollout. In the weeks leading up to the album\u2019s release on Friday (Oct. 3), the Eras Tour headliner unveiled a number of vinyl variants that were only available on her website for 48 hours<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The strategy has already paid off, with Swift\u2019s 12th studio LP clearing 2.7 million<\/a> traditional album sales in just one day. That number already gives the singer the second-largest sales week for any album in the modern era, and she still has several days left in her release week to surpass Adele\u2019s record opening numbers for 2015\u2019s 25.<\/p>\n

Swift last teamed up with Martin and Shellback on 2017\u2019s Reputation, but the trio is perhaps best known for their work together on 2014\u2019s 1989. A deluxe edition of the latter album also featured a voice memo <\/a>capturing how they wrote seven-week Billboard Hot 100<\/a>-topper \u201cBlank Space.\u201d<\/p>\n
