Ladies and gentlemen, the moment we’ve all been waiting for is here! Taylor Swift has officially dropped ‘1989 (Taylor’s Version)’ and the excitement is off the charts! We’ve been counting down the days since she first announced it two months ago, and now, it’s finally in our hands, ready to sweep us off our feet.
Taylor Swift, the queen of re-records, has done it again. When she first announced the arrival of ‘1989 (Taylor’s Version),’ she couldn’t contain her enthusiasm, saying, “The 1989 album changed my life in countless ways.” And let me tell you, this re-record is her most FAVORITE one she’s ever done! Why, you ask? Well, it’s all about the five magical gems known as the ‘From The Vault’ tracks. Taylor gushed, “I can’t believe they were ever left behind.”
Now, let’s talk about those ‘From The Vault’ tracks because they are nothing short of pure gold. Brace yourself for “Slut!,” “Say Don’t Go,” “Now That We Don’t Talk,” “Suburban Legends,” and “Is It Over Now?” These hidden treasures are an absolute must-listen, and they will transport you to a time when ‘1989’ first rocked our world.
But wait, there’s more! Taylor, the gift that keeps on giving, had a surprise up her sleeve for all us Swifties. You might have noticed that when the re-record of her 2014 album initially dropped, there was one glaring omission – her incredible duet with Kendrick Lamar on “Bad Blood.” Fans were left wondering why, oh why, this epic collaboration was missing.
But our girl Taylor didn’t leave us hanging for long. She unleashed the ultimate surprise by releasing a deluxe version of the new album, and guess what it includes? That’s right, the sensational duet with Kendrick Lamar is back! Taylor herself couldn’t contain her excitement and took to Instagram to share her thoughts on working with the rapper once again. She said, “Watching @kendricklamar create and record his verses on the Bad Blood remix was one of the most inspiring experiences of my life.”
Taylor went on to express her deep gratitude for Kendrick’s contribution, saying, “I still look back on this collaboration with so much pride and gratitude, for the ways Kendrick elevated the song and the way he treats everyone around him.” And if that doesn’t warm your heart, she shared how the crowds on The Eras Tour chanted Kendrick’s iconic line, “you forgive, you forget, but you never let it… go!” – talk about a spine-tingling moment!
She wrapped it up by saying, “The reality that Kendrick would go back in and re-record Bad Blood so that I could reclaim and own this work I’m so proud of is surreal and bewildering to me.” The Bad Blood Remix featuring Kendrick Lamar is now available everywhere on the ‘1989 Deluxe Edition.’ 🫶
Now, let’s talk about what’s next on Taylor’s re-record journey. After ‘1989 (Taylor’s Version),’ there are only two more albums left to grace our ears with her magic touch. Her self-titled debut album and ‘Reputation’ are up next on the horizon, and Swifties worldwide are on the edge of their seats, eagerly awaiting these reimagined classics.
‘1989 (Taylor’s Version)’ has landed, and it’s a musical paradise waiting for you to explore. With those ‘From The Vault’ gems and Kendrick Lamar’s return, this re-record is a sonic journey you won’t want to miss. Taylor Swift continues to be the musical legend we all adore, and we can’t wait to see what she has in store for us next.
