What It Means When You See (Taylor’s Version) And Why The Music Icon Is Re-Recording Her First Six Albums
With her July 7 release of "Speak Now (Taylor’s Version)" and the recent announcement of "1989 (Taylor’s Version)" coming to fans on October 27, let’s unpack what this important disclaimer in re-released album titles really means for Taylor Swift and the music industry.
Taylor Swift re-recording her first six albums is not new knowledge. In fact, she announced that she was undertaking this passion project in 2019 on Good Morning America. But what makes Taylor’s Version albums so exciting is that A) we don’t know the release date until she announces it, B) her re-records typically include “From the Vault” tracks that were excluded from the original album, meaning she gives fans a handful of new songs to play tirelessly on repeat, and C) there’s nothing that makes a fan happier than witnessing an artist they love reclaim their beloved work.
