Out of the Woods, another new song from Taylor Swift's upcoming album "1989", was released yesterday.

It has been co-written with Jack Antonoff of the band "Fun.".

Unlike her last hit "Shake it Off", Out of the Woods is not the main single from the album.

Swift says she released it because she thinks it best represents the spirit of the new album.

"Out of the Woods is one of my favourite songs on this album because one of the goals I set out to accomplish when I wanted to make this album is I wanted to make sure that these songs sounded exactly like the emotions felt when I felt them."

The song has already topped the iTunes chart, with Shake it Off following in 2nd place.

Swift's 5th studio album 1989 will hit the shelves on October 27.
