    Her songs have never had this brightness and color that they do now. It is a work of art and it is wonderful to see how after years she can give her art even more life.

    Amazingly nostalgic. Taylor's dictation - you can hear every single word clearly without having to check the lyrics. The production - remains faithful to the original but with some additional touches which makes it sound even better. Great job Taylor! Can't wait for your next rerecording.

I think it's cool how she added "From The Vault" tracks as it is cool to see some more content and her writing in the original Fearless era. The music industry does it once again! Congrats, Taylor. Excited for the other re-records!! Expand

    In 2019, Taylor Swift announced plans to rerecord her entire catalog to that point, an ambitious move sparked by the sale of her original label, Big Machine Label Group, along with all of her masters. Swift’s first entry into this reimagined canon is a new take on her landmark 2008 sophomore LP Fearless, which, among many other accolades, took home the coveted Album of the Year trophy atIn 2019, Taylor Swift announced plans to rerecord her entire catalog to that point, an ambitious move sparked by the sale of her original label, Big Machine Label Group, along with all of her masters. Swift’s first entry into this reimagined canon is a new take on her landmark 2008 sophomore LP Fearless, which, among many other accolades, took home the coveted Album of the Year trophy at the 2010 Grammy Awards. Swift first teased the “Taylor’s Version” of Fearless with the release of a new recording of one of her biggest hits, the ode to youthful romance “Love Story.” That version stays remarkably true to the original track, though it’s hard not to notice how Swift’s voice has strengthened and matured in the 13 years since. Elsewhere, Swift revisits other juggernauts like “Fifteen,” “Forever & Always,” and, of course, “You Belong With Me,” another of her biggest-selling songs.

    In addition to the reimagined tracks, Swift also shares a number of previously unheard songs “from the vault,” like the wistful “You All Over Me,” to which Maren Morris contributes harmony vocals, and “Mr. Perfectly Fine,” a relentlessly melodic affair—complete with a Swiftian post-bridge key change—that would have sounded right at home on late-aughts radio. Keith Urban, for whom Swift opened after releasing Fearless, brings things full circle and joins her on two unreleased tracks, duetting on “That’s When” and lending backing vocals to “We Were Happy.”

I think we all very appreciate Taylor gave us 6 old ''new'' songs from the vault. All 6 from the vault tracks are amazing, after listen to them you have feeling and ask yourself ''this is amazing, why this wasn't on record, what other she has in the vault?'' This is masterpiece and i want to thank Taylor for giving me chance to experience this masterpiece for the first time from begin. Expand

    Taylor did an incredible job recreating her iconic sophomore album, meaning her fans can listen to it without missing the older version. The vault songs are fantastic and fit on to the album perfectly. I still can't believe we could've had the masterpiece that is Mr. Perfectly Fine for 13 YEARS already.

    there's really somethin' 'bout the way the street looks when it's just rained, and this album brings the best of it. one of taylor's best projects, her voice fits the production much better now, and it's easily one of the biggest (and if not the biggest) highlights of such a boring 2021.

    The new six tracks are little bit mature to me, also the lyrics speak out Taylor's soul but only the song " Mr. Perfectly Fine" quite boring with the sentence "Mr...." so that's not what i expected

    When I became a Taylor fan in 2017, I had no idea about her old album tracks. I started finding Fearless interesting when I listened to The Way I Loved You, what a song. Re-recordings made the album better for me. Her matured voice just sounds incredible, and I am in love with the vault tracks. Her pen game was always on point, wasn't it?

    Taylor Swift is still a classic. After all, she was a woman in her thirties, and she used her voice too much. If she can still sing like the Fearless era, I think it's a step backwards. A mature voice is a sign that she is no longer a teenage girl.

    Most obviously changed is her voice, which has strengthened and deepened over the years. Her choruses are a bit less breathy, and she glides into belting without sounding strained. There are micro-changes in inflection.

    Fearless (Taylor’s Version) states boldly, simply and perhaps, generously, that this is a story still worth telling – and a fight worth fighting.

    Swift largely re-creates the arrangements and feel of the original 2008 album, yet her voice and phrasing has aged, giving the music a hint of bittersweet gravity. That said, it's only a hint; Fearless (Taylor's Version) serves the purpose of offering new versions that could be substituted for the originals for licensing purposes. It's to Swift's credit that the album is an absorbing (if long) listen anyway.
