Taylor Swift’s ‘1989 (Taylor’s Version)’ will enter its 2023 era this October
LA TimesTaylor Swift confirmed during Wednesday’s Eras tour stop that “1989 ” will be her next rerecording. Taylor Swift confirmed Wednesday that her 2014 album, “1989,” will be the fourth record to get her “Taylor’s Version” treatment — the latest in her quest to reclaim the rights to her first six albums. The economy-boosting 33-year-old said that “1989 ” is her favorite rerecord thus far because the five vault tracks “are so insane.” “I can’t believe they were ever left behind. So far, the earth-shaking superstar has released massively popular revisions of “Red,” “Fearless” and “Speak Now,” the latest of which arrived in June with plenty of chatter over six never-before-released tracks and an amendment to the lyrics of “Better Than Revenge.” The remaining albums are her self-titled 2006 debut and 2017’s “Reputation.” And there’s still plenty of time to give those albums their due: Last week, Swift announced the latest extension of her Eras tour, adding 15 new dates that will take the viral production into 2024.
