Taylor Swift dropped a new version of her latest studio album, "The Life of a Showgirl," titled "The Life of a Showgirl: The Encore," featuring four new bonus tracks. The last song, "Babylon," is causing a stir on Long Island because some fans think Swift is referencing the Suffolk South Shore village.

"In the song, she said, ‘[But] You wake up on the train with your headphones gone and then that melody is all you want. You never knew that it was Babylon 'til it was gone,’ ” Babylon merchant Joseph DeBello said. "I literally took to Google and asked if there is any other Babylon, city, county or town, that’s near a train station. Google said, ‘No,’ therefore I really think it’s about Babylon."
