Will the next Taylor Swift song-Magic: The Gathering card name collision be from a new TS song (not a new MTG card)?

Once I realized "Getaway Car" was shared, I was curious how many other examples there were. By searching scryfall.com for any Taylor Swift names that sounded plausible, I got this list (minus Wildest Dreams, which @audrey found):

  1. "Last Kiss" from TS's Speak Now (Oct. 2010) and MTG's Rise of the Eldrazi (Apr. 2010)

  2. "Starlight" from TS's Red (2012) and MTG's Portal (1997)

  3. "Wildest Dreams" from TS's 1989 (2014) and MTG's Kaladesh (2016)

  4. "Exile" from TS's folklore (2020) and MTG's Alliances (1996)

  5. "Getaway Car" from TS's reputation (2017) and MTG's Streets of New Capenna (2022)

  6. "Karma" from TS's Midnights (2022) and MTG's Limited Edition Alpha (1993)

Of these six examples, four came from the release of a new TS song, although both versions of "Last Kiss" were released in the same year! There are also Taylor's Versions on the horizon and a potential new album (/Arnav1312/will-taylor-swift-release-a-new-alb), but will that be a match for the breakneck speed of MTG releases these days?

Capitalization doesn't matter for this market. Neither do parentheticals like "feat. Bon Iver." Titles do matter though, so Ivy, Gleeful Spellthief is distinct from the song "ivy". Spacing also matters.

I will leave this market open until another name shared by a Taylor Swift song and a Magic: The Gathering card emerges. (It must be a new collision, not just one that I missed but already existed.)

General policy for my markets: In the rare event of a conflict between my resolution criteria and the agreed-upon common-sense spirit of the market, I may resolve it according to the market's spirit or N/A, probably after discussion.

Nope! The seventh collision comes from "Gold Rush", just spoiled for MTG's Outlaws of Thunder Junction (2024), also from TS's evermore (2020)

predicted NO

I will admit, this question has been living in my head rent free since I've come across this market.

@Quroe right? It's probably the weirdest non-comedy question.
