Mega pop star Taylor Swift's music has an enormous impact on fans.
The American Heart Association went even further by declaring that one of her songs could help save someone's life.
Swift's latest opus The Tortured Poets Department is a surprise double album, with its companion album subtitled The Anthology.
The singer said the album, which was conceived during the launching of her historically successful The Eras Tour in March 2023, was a "lifeline" album that she "really needed" to make, presumably due to the media frenzy surrounding her dissolved six-year relationship with British actor Joe Alwyn; her breakup with the lead singer of the band 1975, Matt Healy; and finding love again with NFL star Travis Kelce.
And while many of the tracks on TTPD, with themes of sorrow, self-awareness, and delusion can break hearts, the American Heart Association found that one of the songs can resuscitate one due to its tempo.
The AHA's Instagram page alleged in a post that the title track from TTPD:
βhas 110 beats per minute, the right tempo for hands-only CPR.β
The post's graphic accompanied a caption that first praised Swift's accomplishment.
"A double album!?! π€― So double the chances for songs with lifesaving beats!?! βοΈ"
It added:
βIf you see a teen or adult collapse, call 911, then push hard and fast in the center of the chest to the beat of βThe Tortured Poets Department.β"
"Thanks, @taylorswift!β
Swifties had plenty to say about the life-affirming trivia.

The British Heart Association previously noted that Healy also had a song with 110 beats per minute.
BHA captioned in their Instagram post:
"Did you know that βππ¨π¦πππ¨ππ² ππ₯π¬πβ by @the1975 has the right beat to learn CPR to?"
"The power of music can help us keep the right rhythm for CPR, between 100-120bpm."
Swifties widely believed that the track "The Tortured Poets Department" was a nod to Healy, whom Swift briefly dated following her separation from Alwyn, which was announced in April 2023.
Is it coincidental that the tempo for the song believed to be about her and Healy deliberately matched the one heard in her ex's song?
With so many Easter eggs in the Swiftian lore, it wouldn't be that far of a reach.
And while Swift seems to be a CPR pro, she found that she could only do so much when trying to hold on to a fizzling romance with Alwyn.
She said as much in the lyrics to the heartbreaking album's fifth track, "So Long, London," presumably about moving on from the city, and Alwyn, where they shared a life.
In the song, the 34-year-old sings:
"I stopped CPR, after all itβs no use / The spirit was gone, we would never come to,"
Swifties noted CPR isn't always effective.

The double album is breaking records, with 14 tracks from the album dominating the top of the Billboard Hot 100 chart.
It also became the first-ever album to cross one billion streams in one week since its April 19 release.
More than ever, Swift demonstrates that she continues to have a strong pulse in the music industry, even if she's "Down Bad."
After all, she has proven she can still do it with a broken heart.
