Ohio may be getting a shoutout from one of the world's biggest pop stars.
Taylor Swift announced on Sept. 23 that she would be releasing four new tracks on Sept. 25.
The tracks are part of a collection Swift announced would be called "The Life of a Showgirl: The Encore."
On Sept. 22, Swift announced the first of the four tracks, "Patient Zero," through a countdown on her website.
A track listing visible on Spotify shows the other three song titles being "Pink Clouding," "Babylon" and "Cleveland!"
Swift's husband, Travis Kelce, grew up in the Cleveland area and recently purchased a $5 million home in a suburb.
The four-song release comes nearly a year after Swift released her 12th studio album "The Life of a Showgirl." In her Sept. 23 announcement,
Swift said the new tracks were recorded and produced with Max Martin and Shellback, who she collaborated with on the original album.
"Cleveland!" has a listed run time of 3:26, according to Spotify.
It is unclear if the exclamation point contained within the title has any significance. Swift has used exclamation points in the titles of four other songs in her career: "ME!" from her "Lover" album, "'Slut!' (Taylor's Version) (From the Vault)" from her re-release of the "1989" album, "Florida!!!" from "The Tortured Poets Department" and "CANCELLED!" from "The Life of a Showgirl."
Swift and Kelce have been spotted several times in northeast Ohio, including attending a Cleveland Cavaliers playoff game this spring.
