Taylor Swift has just revealed the news that her much-awaited re-recorded album, “1989 (Taylor’s Version),” is set to grace our ears on October 27, as confirmed through her various social media platforms.
Originally unveiled in 2014, “1989” stands as the album that Taylor describes as having “changed my life in countless ways.” She goes on to express her excitement about announcing this latest version, stating, “it fills me with such excitement to announce” this reimagined rendition.
For devoted Swifties, there’s even more reason to be thrilled. Taylor shares, “To be perfectly honest, this is my most FAVORITE re-record I’ve ever done because the 5 From The Vault tracks are so insane. I can’t believe they were ever left behind. But not for long!” The upcoming LP is already up for pre-order on Taylor Swift’s official website, available in four special-edition deluxe CDs: “Crystal Skies Blue,” “Rose Garden Pink,” “Aquamarine Green,” and “Sunrise Boulevard Yellow.” Additionally, it will be released in “Crystal Skies Blue” vinyl and cassette formats.
“1989 (Taylor’s Version)” marks Taylor’s fourth re-recorded album since unveiling her re-recording project in 2019. Impressively, the previous three have all secured the No. 1 spot on the Billboard 200 chart: “Fearless (Taylor’s Version)” for two weeks in 2021, “Red (Taylor’s Version)” for one week in 2021, and “Speak Now (Taylor’s Version)” for two weeks in 2023. All three versions have also achieved the top position on the Official U.K. Albums Chart.
Across these three “Version” albums, Swift has delivered a total of 21 “From The Vault” songs, with several earning spots in the Hot 100’s top 10 and gaining traction on pop radio. Notably, the 10-minute rendition of “All Too Well” even clinched the No. 1 spot.
The original release of “1989” dominated the all-genre Billboard 200 for an impressive 11 weeks.
Given the excitement surrounding Version No. 4, Swift has already treated fans to a sneak peek of the re-recorded album, including tracks like “Wildest Dreams (Taylor’s Version),” which gained massive popularity on TikTok, and “This Love (Taylor’s Version),” featured in the trailer for the Amazon Prime series “The Summer I Turned Pretty.”
Swift’s ability to set and break records seems second nature. In the current year, she secured her 12th U.S. No. 1 with “Speak Now (Taylor’s Version),” surpassing Barbra Streisand as the female artist with the most No. 1s. She also made history as the first living artist in nearly six decades to have four concurrent albums in the top 10 and achieved the milestone of having 11 albums on the top 200-chart simultaneously.
Across the pond, Taylor’s accomplishments are no less remarkable. In the U.K., she stands as the sole artist this century to amass 10 No. 1 albums. Notably, her “The Eras Tour” broke records in Australia, with her albums dominating the top 5 positions on the ARIA Albums Chart in a historic moment. Taylor even succeeded herself at No. 1, a feat not seen since the inception of the ARIA Charts in 1983.
The announcement of “1989 (Taylor’s Version)” on an early Thursday ET coincided with the conclusion of Taylor’s six-night residency at Los Angeles’ SoFi Stadium, marking the end of the first U.S. leg of “The Eras Tour.” The tour will now embark on an international journey starting August 24, with tour dates across Latin America, Asia, Australia, and Europe, before making its way back to North America for a second round in 2024.
