Taylor Swift fans have urged the pop star to 'take a break' after four new songs from The Life of a Showgirl: The Encore sparked sharply divided reactions from critics and listeners. Released on Friday, 25 September, the deluxe edition adds 'Patient Zero', 'Cleveland!', 'Pink Clouding' and 'Babylon', nearly a year after the original album.
While some listeners have praised the new material, others have questioned whether Swift should step away from music before returning with another album.
