The pop superstar announced on Instagram that she has re-recorded eight songs from The Life of a Showgirl into acoustic versions with producers Max Martin and Shellback. These tracks will be featured on four limited-edition CDs, now available in her webstore for 24 hours.
“File this under 'save your best for the finale,'” she wrote.

In addition to including two acoustic bonus tracks each, the four CDs feature new cover artworks inspired by scenes from the “The Fate of Ophelia” music video, which premiered on Monday, October 6.
