Taylor Swift has never released a Track 5 without sparking a collective meltdown, but “The Fate of Ophelia” is hitting (and getting on) a new level of nerves. The song exploded in streams alongside The Life of a Showgirl’s record-breaking debut, yet it’s quickly become the most polarizing moment on an album that otherwise knows exactly what it’s doing.
