So what do we know about "Red (Taylor's Version)"? Announcing that the album will officially be released on November 19, Swift shared some insight as to why she chose "Red" as her next re-recording in her social media post — and even made sure to tease some exciting details about the forthcoming album.
"Musically and lyrically, 'Red' resembled a heartbroken person," she wrote (via NME). "It was all over the place, a fractured mosaic of feelings that somehow all fit together in the end. Happy, free, confused, lonely, devastated, euphoric, wild, and tortured by memories past. I went into the studio and experimented with different sounds and collaborators. And I'm not sure if it was pouring my thoughts into this album, hearing thousands of your voices sing the lyrics back to me in passionate solidarity, or if it was simply time, but something was healed along the way."
Confessing that she couldn't "stop writing" when she first wrote the album, the singer then revealed that the "Red (Taylor's Version)" would include every song that was intended for its original release back in 2012. "This will be the first time you hear all 30 songs that were meant to go on Red," she teased. "And hey, one of them is even 10 minutes long."
Well, we don't know about you, but we're definitely feeling like November 19 can't come soon enough!
