I think maybe we make one thread for all the re-recordings? But I supposed we can cross that bridge as other start coming out.
Depending on how close together she releases all of the re-releases, I agree that we could change this to just be a mega thread for all the "Taylor's Versions."
Coming out with the one I wanted the most right out the gate is wild. So ready for this. Hearing a studio version of “Fearless” & “The Best Day” performed by adult Taylor, 13(!) years later, is gonna rule.
I'm glad she's including a lot of extras that make this worth the repeat buy. It's making me even more excited for possible inclusions for Red, 1989, and reputation.
Hyped for this. Kinda wish I just dropped the $50 I used for this on any of the records after this one though haha
Hopefully she's still doing self titled, if we don't get Our Song Taylor's Version I will slam her screen door
@Anna Acosta and I agree - "Taylor Swift Re-record End Game and replace Ed Sheeran and Future with Hayley Williams and Megan Thee Stallion Challenge"
The song I want most from self titles is “I’m Only Me When I’m With You,” though at the same time there’s a specific rasp or something to her voice in the original that I’d probably miss in a new version. “Cold as You,” “Mary’s Song,” & (for nostalgia) “Teardrops on My Guitar” would also rule. Red’s still my favorite album of hers (even after folklore), but that’s actually lower in my list of Taylor’s Versions I want ‘cause the original is so perfect. (Which, Fearless is, too, but there’s a specific thematic aspect I’ve talked about before that makes this one exciting to me.) The potential of new outtakes is the main attraction for that one for me.
I’ve kept track of the random capital letters in that post 4 times and I still can’t for the life of me figure out if it’s actually signaling something or if she just had some typos and left it to fuck with us edit: Twitter says it’s April Ninth, I’m dumb
Just gonna add it to this thread. Taylor’s Version > Platinum Edition on the sole fact that the proper album is first
