Info for Speak Now (Taylor's Version)

Speak Now (Taylor’s Version) is Taylor’s third re-recorded album. It is set to be released on July 7, 2023, via Republic Records, as the re-recording of her third studio album, Speak Now (2010). The re-recording is part of her counteraction to defy the changed ownership of the masters to her first six studio albums. Taylor announced the album on May 5, 2023, in Nashville, at an “The Eras Tour” concert.

"Speak Now (Taylor’s Version)" contains 22 tracks, six of which are designated “From the Vault” — unreleased songs that were written for Speak Now but did not make the final cut in 2010. “If This Was A Movie (Taylor’s Version)“, a deluxe track from the original album, was released as a promotional single and included with The More Fearless (Taylor’s Version) Chapter earlier in 2023; it was the only track from Speak Now to have a co-writer. The vinyl edition of Speak Now (Taylor’s Version) is a set of three albums.

Speak Now was a reaction. After two massive albums, as her star was ascending to new heights, Taylor was tired of hearing that she didn’t write her own songs. So for her third studio album, she decided not to write with anyone else — let the credits show that she could make a sparkling country song catchy enough to cross over to pop radio all on her own. And so she did. It wouldn’t stop those doubts about her authenticity, but for anyone willing to take Taylor at face value, Speak Now was proof that she is a formidable talent. Taylor reflected on the album 13 days before its release, saying:

«Speak Now is an album that is so incredibly important to me. This was an album that I wrote between the ages of 18 and 20, and I wrote it completely alone without any collaborators in the co-writing department. It was something that I wanted to do, I think to prove to myself, and I ended up writing a really, really intense, magical album.» (Taylor Swift)

As per her contract with Big Machine Records, Taylor released six studio albums under the label from 2006 to 2017. In late 2018, the contract with the label expired; she hence withdrew from Big Machine and signed a new recording deal with Republic Records, a division of Universal Music Group, which secured her the rights to own the masters of the new music she will release. In 2019, American businessman Scooter Braun and his company Ithaca Holdings acquired Big Machine. As part of the acquisition, ownership of the masters to Taylor’s first six studio albums, including Speak Now, transferred to Braun. Taylor denounced Braun’s purchase of the label, and announced that she would re-record her first six studio albums, so as to own their masters herself. At her “The Eras Tour” concert on June 24, 2023, she said:

«Ever since I was a teenager and I started putting out my albums, I knew that my long-term goal was to one day own my art, my work, my music. That’s just always been something I’ve really wanted and dreamed about. And so a couple of years ago, I announced that I was going to be re-recording and re-releasing my entire first six albums. [...] This is a passion project. This is something that I wanted to do personally, because I wanted to own my work.» (Taylor Swift)
