Taylor Swift Announces 'Red (Taylor's Version)' Will Come Out Earlier Than Expected; Fans React
Taylor Swift took to Twitter Thursday to tell her fans that her upcoming album, "Red (Taylor's Version)," will be released a week earlier than expected, and "Swifties" from all over the world can't contain their excitement.
In her tweet, the 31-year-old singer shared that the highly anticipated album, which was originally slated for release on Nov. 19, would actually be out by Nov. 12. She also revealed that the vinyl LPs will also be available in the same week.
"Got some news that I think you’re gonna like - My version of Red will be out a week earlier than scheduled (including the 4 disc vinyl) on November 12th !" Swift noted. "Can't wait to celebrate the 13th with you and our new/old autumn heartbreak album."
Along with the tweet, the singer shared a link to her website that allows fans to pre-save her new album on Spotify and Apple Music. It also lets them join the mailing list to get special offers, promotions and updates about the singer's upcoming projects.
But what really caught her fans' attention on the site was a feature that allows anyone to add a special frame, which has "RED Taylor's Version November 12" written on it, to their photos simply by uploading them. Fans can then download the images with the frame and share them on social media.
A fan who used the said feature shared two pictures in the comments section. In the caption, they wrote, "I am so beyond excited!! You’re music always is so comforting, warm and brings so much joy into my life. Ready for November 12th!! Red heart #RedTaylorsVersion."
Many other fans also took to the comments section to share their excitement for the singer's upcoming release.
One of them noted, "After seeing this i think everybody is a swifty."
Meanwhile, another fan wrote, "A WEEK EARLIER WHAT ???? GIRL WHAT IS GOING ON."
"Red (Taylor's Version)" is a re-recorded version of the singer's fourth studio album, which came out in 2012.
This is not the first time Swift is dropping a re-recorded version of her old music. In April, she released "Fearless (Taylor's Version)," the re-recorded version of her second studio album from 2012.
According to NPR, the "Shake It Off" singer is doing this to reclaim artistic and financial control of her material after it was sold by her previous music label.
