It’s a new soundtrack 💙 Here are the back covers and vault track titles for 1989 (my version) I can’t wait for this one to be out, seriously. Thank you for playing along, sleuthing, puzzling and making these reveals so much chaotic fun (which is the best kind of fun, after all 😜)

It’s here. It’s yours, it’s mine, it’s ours. It’s an album I wrote alone about the whims, fantasies, heartaches, dramas and tragedies I lived out as a young woman between 18 and 20. I remember making tracklist after tracklist, obsessing over the right way to tell the story. I had to be ruthless with my choices, and I left behind some songs I am still unfailingly proud of now. Therefore, you have 6 From The Vault tracks! I recorded this album when I was 32 (and still growing up, now) and the memories it brought back filled me with nostalgia and appreciation. For life, for you, for the fact that I get to reclaim my work. Thank you a million times, for the memories that break our fall. 💥🐉🏰  Speak Now (MY VERSION!) is out now.

I’m VERY excited to show you the back cover of Speak Now (my version) including the vault tracks and collaborations with Hayley Williams from Paramore and Fall Out Boy. Since Speak Now was all about my songwriting, I decided to go to the artists who I feel influenced me most powerfully as a lyricist at that time and ask them to sing on the album. They’re so cool and generous for agreeing to support my version of Speak Now. I recorded this album when I was 32 (and still growing up, now) and can’t wait to unveil it all to you on July 7th http://store.taylorswift.com

wait this is so cute i can’t believe 15 year old me wrote this

Happy Birthday Taylor

Dear Taylor, So I don’t really know where I should begin. I guess I’ll start where it all started. I remember hearing you for the first time on the radio. It was Tim McGraw. I remember (even though I was only 6) how I loved your way with words. You just go about things so wonderfully and it takes my breath away. Flash forward to 2008, and Fearless is my favorite album. It may have only been the 2nd (3rd if you count Sound of the Season) but it has always had a special place in my heart. Then 2009 came along and you were opening up for Keith Urban. Of course I begged and I begged my parents for tickets and I finally got them. Then came the day. July 31st, 2009. I still remember this like yesterday. My aunt (who is a huge fan as well) and I got ready, and we arrived at the stadium. I remember feeling so many emotions. 1. Because it was my first concert and 2. Because I was seeing you LIVE and I wasn’t sure how to process it. Like oh my god she’s actually real??? I remember we got to our seats and I started crying. They were right in front of the catwalk and I was so shocked. Then you came out and I started to scream and for a moment I felt so close to you. Physically, and emotionally. You got to play a longer set than you had planned because Keith was running late, what a blessing. Six long years later and I finally got to see you live again. Funny story about how his happened too. So the whole year my aunt and I had talked about going and she pretended that my parents didn’t get tickets, then on my birthday (July 22nd, only 3 days before the concert) they gave me my present. Two tickets to see you again. I started shaking and tears came to my eyes, I couldn’t believe it. We got to the stadium 3 days later and I felt like I was 9 years old again. I was feeling all of the same emotions all over again. We patiently waited for you to come on stage after hearing the wonderful performances by Shawn, Vance Joy, and Haim. Then it all began. Welcome to New York was about to start and I got this weird pain in my chest and I honestly thought I was going to have a heart attack. It was still the best night of my life. You make my life so amazing and I can never thank you enough. You are what I long to be, caring, loving, and so down to earth. I don’t think you understand how much your music means to me and everybody else, or maybe you do I could be wrong. But your music is just so powerful and it has so much emotion and I connect so easily to it, and that’s why I feel I’m so close to you. You have so much talent and I’m so envious of you. You are on top of the world right now and I couldn’t be more proud. If I ever had the chance to meet you I don’t know what I would do. I would finally be meeting my best friend. I’m so happy that I got the chance to grow up with you these past 10 years. They’ve gone by so quickly. I can’t wait to spend another 10 more with you, and another 10 after that. I love you Taylor, and I hope you have the best 26th birthday ever! @taylorswift Love, Kulani 💗
