Original story (published on August 29, 2022) follows:

Taylor Swift is undoubtedly one of the most iconic pop artists in the world. With over 58 million monthly listeners on Spotify, she has built an incredibly loyal and supportive fanbase over the course of her career.

Taylor Swift recently announced her comeback album ‘Midnights’ which is expected to be globally released on October 21, 2022. The album is currently available for pre-order on her official website in digital and physical form.

However, many Taylor Swift fans (1,2,3,4,5) are unable to pre-order the album as the website is crashing, not working or throwing error 503 to the users.

For some, the website crashes immediately after they try to access it, while for others, it shows an error 503 when trying to pre-order the album.

It seems like the website servers are having issues trying to cope with the sudden rise in traffic. Fans have taken to social media platforms like Twitter to express their frustration about the crashing issues.
