To fans’ delight (and not huge surprise), Hayley Williams of Paramore made a guest appearance on the vault tracks. “Castles Crumbling” (from the vault) feat. Online, fans praised the song for its 2000s vibes inspiring Swifites to dance on their beds as if they were teens all over again (Editor’s note: Or in our 20s). Fall Out BoyĪ personal favorite of ours from the vault re-release was Swift’s duet featuring Fall Out Boy and has a heavy emphasis on nostalgia. The debate stems from purists who prefer the original remain untouched since the lyrics are some of the most savage Swift has ever written.įor those who don’t know, the song is notoriously about her ex Joe Jonas and the edit redirects the attention to him and is updated for today’s climate. Of course, fans could understand why she decided to make the change, however, many were unhappy with the singer’s choice. In the original version of her 2010 song “Better Than Revenge,” the lyric reads “She’s better known for the things that she does on the mattress,” and in an attempt to remain uncanceled and reclaim a feminist POV, Taylor’s re-recording says “He was a moth to the flame, she was holding the matches.” We simply could not wait to talk about quite possibly the most controversial aspect of the “Speak Now” release…one of Taylor’s most blatant lyric changes. No matter how diehard a Swiftie you are, there are always more Taylor treasures to discover and we’re here for it.Īnd now that fans have yet another record to unpack, it’s best not to be the ‘Foolish One’ and discuss some of “Speak Now’s” most notable highlights. The highly-anticipated album features six (!) vault tracks from the star’s late teen years. On Friday, July 7, Taylor Swift fans all over the globe prepared to ‘Never Grow Up’ while listening to Swift’s latest “Speak Now (Taylor’s Version)” for the first time. Just like that, we’ve entered another ‘Eras Tour’ era. We may receive revenue from this partnership for sharing this content and/or when you make a purchase.
