Taylor Swift - Taylor's Versions (Re-Recordings Official Thread) Album • Page 199

i have never needed anything more than i need "this is what you came for (taylor's version) (from the vault) [ft. rihanna]"

 

I want this:
Tim McGraw (ft. Tim McGraw) (Taylor's Version) on Taylor Swift (Taylor's Version) by Taylor Swift

 

Gonna reckon we’ll never get a “Thug Story (Taylor’s Version)”

 

Would have been Fearless I believe.

 

I’ve thought every year since this project started she would have released the Christmas material. It’s free money just out there not getting swallowed up.

Forgot about those.

 

I want that debut TV version so badly.

 

Mostly excited for these 2 to finally come out so we can be done with this (Taylor's Version) timeline.

 

Mentioning "Tell Me" again real quick.

It's fun listening to early unreleased songs, like "Tell Me", and basically knowing exactly when she wrote it.

"Crush" by Mandy Moore came out in 2001, 2 years before Debut came out. Of course a 12-14 year old girl who writes songs about love and such would have been inspired by that song, and it definitely shows in "Tell Me." The verses are almost identical, vocal melody-wise.

Looks like the song has been scrubbed from YouTube. It could be cool if Taylor does include it on Debut TV and features Mandy Moore on it. I could see her including features of artists that inspired her in that era, kinda like she did with Speak Now TV vault tracks. Mandy Moore, Michelle Branch, etc would be fun to see.

EDIT: Now that I think about it, I think there is another unreleased track that basically copies the vocal melody of "Goodbye To You" by Michelle Branch (2001), and the chorus of "Need You Now" sounds very similar to "Tomorrow" by Lillix (2003.)

 

Oh for sure. I forgot to make the joke when that came out. So here we are! I’m sure Taylor wants that buried deep, deep into the ground.

 

Is Sweeter Than Fiction (Taylor's Version) ever coming to streaming? Figured Target had a timed exclusive that would have ended by now. Similar to Hits Different off Midnights.

 

i wondered about this too. i was able to find a good quality RIP to add to my copy on Apple Music, but would love an official digital copy (i have the Target pressing so i already have it on vinyl)

 

I guess I’ll do the same as far as having a copy on Apple Music in the meantime (or forever if it doesn’t get an official digital release for whatever reason).

But it’s good to know I’m not alone in wanting to fork over a dollar and change for an official download of a song that’s already recorded and been out there on another format for well over a year now. Talk about easy money between streams and downloads.

 

NOT BUMPING WITH ANY NEWS





I wanted to shine a light on this underrated gem, a really cool stripped back version recorded at long pond that I think got overshadowed with everything else she was doing at the time

 

What's that, Reputation Taylor's Version?

 

no

 

to me, this is the real "ten minute version" tbh

 

i usually avoid remixes and alternate versions, but this one was good enough to spin and include in my full discography playlist i usually reference when listening to her

 

I wish I didn't kind of hate the 10-minute version.

 

Literally just popped in here to agree with Craig. Which is almost always the case, sometimes I just need to publicize it to offer him some much-deserved validation.

 

I don't hate it. But it's vastly inferior.

 

Yeah it's not something I'd ever choose to listen to.

 

I prefer it by a mile, but I never really cared for the original in a big way

 

You are a sick, sick man.

 

I genuinely think it's some of her worst writing, which is odd because I think the writing in the original is so strong. Either a testament to the power of editing or a sign that she totally missed the mark when she went back to try to write in that headspace again.

 

I’m happy it was in the Eras setlist so people like me could have the most leisurely mid-concert bathroom break ever experienced
