    We have the 10 mins version of All Too Well and it’s stunningly sad! All the details that she added into the re-recording songs are sophisticated! Some songs she changed the production and the melody which is very smart. And the song-writing which directly echoes Joni Mitchell’s writing is shining brighter than ever, making her still the greatest song-writter of our generation!

    It takes one of the greatest modern albums and recreate it with absolute mastery. Taylor has grown in every aspect of music and it reflects in the new approaches, the little differences on the "old" songs and on the brilliant from vault ones.

    Fantastic album, I think "WANEGBT" and "IKYWT" are going to take some getting used to, but ultimately Red (Taylor's version) is just a better album. Her vocals are evidently better than back in 2012, and her songs feel more heartfelt and emotional than ever. I thought All too well was the best song of all time, but clearly, I was wrong as the original 10-minute version deserves that title.Fantastic album, I think "WANEGBT" and "IKYWT" are going to take some getting used to, but ultimately Red (Taylor's version) is just a better album.

    Taylor Swift has once again done it again with re-recording especially Red (Taylor's Version).

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This album again showcases what a lyrical genius Taylor really is. She not only made a Grammy nominated album even better but also wrote all the songs in her early 20s. Taylor is able to tell all kind of stories, whether they be about heartbreak, betrayal, happiness or love, in a delicate and poetic way, drawing us listeners in and feeling every emotion as if e had lived that experience ourselves.
    No song sounds like the stolen version, no, they all got a beautiful twist to them making the listening experience something exciting and new. Even if we hadn't gotten 5 new absolutely magnificent pieces of art from the vault, that never should have been locked up in there.
    Not to mention the 10 minute All Too Well Version that couldn't be more angelic and heartbreaking all at once. This song truly is a story narrated by Taylor in a way that even Shakespeare or Goethe would appear as bungling amateurs. To this day it's still a shame that Red never got the Grammy for album of the year, but this version would have deserved it so much more. It is the epitome of perfection mixed with all the emotions that a human is capable of feeling.

    Now onto the vaulted tracks. I cried at almost every single track but especially in Ronan and All Too Well (10 minute version). The lyrics are just beyond beautiful and heartbreaking. Every single song from the vaulted tracks has pure love and energy into the recording and writing of. I still can’t imagine why songs like Babe, Message in a bottle, Ronan, Better Man, and Nothing New didn’t make it into the stolen version.

    Either way this album is what you find when you google the world flawlessly perfect in google. 10/10 taylor. You’ve done it again blondie.

    The original Red album is already a 10/10 album especially to its songwriting. The only thing about it is it was stolen. This Red TV just bringing bck the feels from 2012 and the vault songs are just so good specifically the ten minute version of All too well. Babe is already my favorite and better man.

    we're happy, free, confused, and lonely at the same time. it's better than the old version. her voice is more mature which i love. my favorite rerecorded song is i knew you were trouble and my fav vault song is message in a bottle. message in a bottle sounds like it would be a 1989 (tv) vault track. anyways this was a 10/10 album. definetly deserves a grammy.

    The profound maturity of her voice underscores how this album is a retelling of her teenage tales from a novel vantage point nearly a decade later as she ventures forth on owning back the life she once lived and told through the rerecordings of her first six studio albums.

    The heartbreaks of her past may have been miserable, but now, this musical masterpiece that personified those bittersweet memories is just simply cathartic and magical.

    Quite frankly, no one does it like her.

The most impressive part of this album is the All Too Well (10 Minute Version) where Swift managed to record what was hidden from fans for years and it made one of the best song ever written into the best song ever made, It's truly a masterpiece. Red is a very emotional, heartbreaking, and fun album. For me, this re-recording does not possess the emotion that Red had, It was Swift re-telling stories of what she felt during the era. All of her re-recordings will belong on her folklores, her stories.

    This album has proven it's value at 2012, what we have now is the magic of this album that was sprinkled on our lives where Swift is finally the beholder of her craft.

    As someone who has listened to Taylor Swift since they were three years old, I am just in AWE of this album. Red (Taylor’s Version) brought more than you ever expected, the sudden lyric change to the ten minute version of All Too Well shocked me as much as the rest of the world. Taylor Swift is a lyrical genius, and always will be. Myself and millions are so very excited for this album,As someone who has listened to Taylor Swift since they were three years old, I am just in AWE of this album.

    Es un álbum perfecto, Red 2012 ya lo era pero pudo superarse así misma mejorando los sonidos y más. No hay duda que Taylor swift es la artista femenina más importante de estos tiempos

    Red Taylor's version is a journey of feelings. Every person can feel the emotions Taylor was feeling while writing these beautiful songs, which makes the album successful in conveying it's true message.

    One of the best female albums of the year, we could say that it is the re-released album of the decades 2010 and 2020, heartbreaking and at the same time fun, it is something that only Taylor Swift could do, again demonstrating the value of her music facing everything.

    Ugh! It’s just so good! Lovely from start to finish. It really has such a nice vibe; it’s nostalgic yet new, and although long, everything is very coherent. Taylor sounds fantastic as well, her vocals have greatly improved since the original album.

    Swift lays the groundwork of her songs with good chords in Red (Taylor’s Version), but she also enhances the songs’ power with catchy lyrics and melodies (“You fooound me / You fooound me / You fooound me-e-e-e-“).

    Truth is that this is now the definitive version of Red. It may also ensure that the good old boys who casually sold her music, seemingly out of a mixture of greed and spite, won’t get one red cent from Red, and it proves you can take a masterpiece and make it sound even better.

    The highlight of these is a ten-minute version of "All Too Well," a bitter ballad that was already one of the peaks of Red and is now turned into an epic kiss-off. This, along with excavated songs, are reason enough for Swift to revisit Red and they, not the re-recordings, are the reason to return to Red [Taylor's Version].
