Swift said the record's title explains the many emotions she'll be exploring in her latest work.

"They're all pretty much about the kind of tumultuous, crazy, insane, intense, semi-toxic relationships that I've experienced in the last two years," she said. "All those emotions spanning from intense love, intense frustration, jealousy, confusion, all of that, in my mind all those emotions are red. There's nothing in between. There's nothing beige about any of those feelings."

The album is two years in the making, and Swift confessed that in order to finish it she had to put another passion of hers - acting - on the backburner.

"I would love to do a movie that I was so obsessed with that I couldn't think of anything other than shooting that movie," she said. "I love music, and I love touring, and I love seeing you guys all the time, and so it's really hard to take time away from doing that. I don't like to."

Speaking of touring, the singer also hinted at an enormous world tour that could accompany "Red."

"We're going to be doing lots of traveling all over everywhere," Swift told a couple of Swedish fans.

Other details about the album included its super-sized length - 16 tracks - and a collaboration track with British singer Ed Sheeran, which Swift revealed was written while sitting on a trampoline.
