    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Swift's re-recording of this album is anything I ever could have wanted and more. The vocals on all songs initially present on the 2012 version are evidently better and more refined, whilst its "(From The Vault)" were all sensational, and I cannot fathom how it has taken nine years for the world to hear the masterpieces that make it complete.

    I furthermore believe the "(From The Vault)" songs perfectly encapsulate what Swift's "Red" era was more than the original album ever could; "All Too Well (10 Minute Version) (Taylor's Version) (From The Vault)" showcases her vulnerability in a toxic relationship with a power dynamic conceived to exploit her, in a truly saddening, heart-wrenching, nuanced storytelling fashion, and somehow lasts a full ten minutes without seeming repetitive or boring to the listener – fully immersing them in her traumatic experience and her narrative. Additionally, other songs, such as "Message In A Bottle (Taylor's Version) (From The Vault)" having a more dance-pop, "1989"-esque sound illustrate how restrictive Big Machine Records (her former label) were of the music Swift released, and how tentative they were in her transition to pop from country music throughout her "Red" era.

    Overall, this album is truly a masterpiece, as it both allows us to reminisce on the nostalgia of music Swift released nearly a decade ago, whilst still being more emotional, vulnerable and wonderfully chaotic than before. Her lyricism is brilliant and enticing, only further matched by her matured vocals. It's spectacular.

    This is solely one of her most anticipated re-recording album. Every song in the album speaks for itself. The album as a whole is beautifully done and with her speciality of writing songs, once again she has proven herself as the best.

    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].
