You are currently reading the article dedicated to the re-record album Red (Taylor's Version). You may have been looking for the original 2012 version, the song, the tour.

Red (Taylor's Version) is the second re-recorded album by the American singer-songwriter Taylor Swift, released on November 12, 2021, through Republic Records. It is part of Swift's re-recording projects following the 2019 dispute over the ownership of her back catalog.

Red (Taylor's Version) includes re-recorded versions of the tracks on Swift's fourth studio album, Red (2012), and the 2012 charity single "Ronan"; and nine tracks denoted as "From the Vault":[note 1] six unreleased songs, a 10-minute-long version of "All Too Well", and solo versions of "Better Man" (2016) and "Babe" (2018), which Swift had written for Little Big Town and Sugarland. Swift and most original producers reprised their works on the re-recorded tracks with additions from Christopher Rowe, and the vault tracks featured inputs from Aaron Dessner, Jack Antonoff, Elvira Anderfjärd, and Espionage, with features from Phoebe Bridgers, Ed Sheeran, and Chris Stapleton.

Music critics described Red (Taylor's Version) as an eclectic album combining styles of pop, country, rock, and electronic, featuring various instruments such as acoustic strings and electronic keyboards. Its songs address the different dynamics of love and heartbreak. Met with unanimous acclaim, the album received critical praise for Swift's vocals, its enhanced production quality, and the vault tracks. Commercially, Red (Taylor's Version) topped the charts in Australia, Canada, and the United Kingdom, among others. In the United States, it was Swift's fourth number-one on the Billboard 200 in less than 16 months, registering the shortest time span for an artist to collect four number-one albums.

Swift promoted the album with televised appearances on NBC talk shows and a self-directed short film accompanying "All Too Well (10 Minute Version)". Red (Taylor's Version) broke the record for the most single-week new entries by an artist with 26 of its tracks charting on the Billboard Hot 100; "All Too Well (10 Minute Version)" became the longest song to ever top the chart. The vault tracks "I Bet You Think About Me" and "Message In A Bottle" were promoted as radio singles. Publications considered Red (Taylor's Version) a key pop culture moment of 2021. The album won a Billboard Music Award, two American Music Awards, and an NME Award.

Background[]

Taylor Swift signed a recording contract with Nashville-based independent record label Big Machine in 2005. As part of the contract, Big Machine released Swift's first six studio albums, from Taylor Swift (2006) to Reputation (2017).[1] Her fourth studio album, Red, was released on October 22, 2012. It expanded beyond the country stylings of her past albums and explored styles of mainstream pop and other genres.[2][3] The album's lead single, "We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together", was Swift's first number-one song on the Billboard Hot 100.[4] Other singles, "I Knew You Were Trouble" and "22", were commercially successful and propelled Swift towards pop stardom.[4][5] Although critical reviews of Red were generally positive, its eclectic musical influences led to critics questioning Swift's country-music identity; the album was retrospectively regarded as a testament to Swift's artistic versatility. Rolling Stone placed it at number 99 on its 2021 revision of the 500 Greatest Albums of All Time.[6]

By August 2018, Swift's contract with Big Machine had expired; she signed a new contract with Republic Records, a division of Universal Music Group, which secured her the rights to own the masters of the new music she would release.[7] In 2019, the talent manager Scooter Braun and his company Ithaca Holdings acquired Big Machine Records. The masters of Swift's Big Machine-released albums, including Red, were effectively transferred to Braun, which resulted in a public dispute between Swift and Braun.[8] Swift denounced the purchase and began re-recording her first six studio albums, including Red, in November 2020.[9] By re-recording the albums, Swift had full ownership of the new masters, which enabled her to control the licensing of her songs for commercial use and therefore substituted the Big Machine–owned masters.[10]

The first in Swift's re-recording series was Fearless (Taylor's Version), which was released on April 9, 2021.[11] It is the re-recording of her second studio album, Fearless (2008). In addition to re-recordings of the original Fearless album tracks, Fearless (Taylor's Version) includes several unreleased tracks denoted as "From the Vault".[12][note 1] Fearless (Taylor's Version) became the first re-recorded album in history to top the US Billboard 200.[4] Two months after the release of Fearless (Taylor's Version), on June 18, 2021, Swift announced Red (Taylor's Version) as her second re-recorded album; it is the re-recording of Red.[4] In addition to the re-recordings of the original album tracks, Red (Taylor's Version) also includes nine vault tracks.[13]

On March 17, 2023, Swift released two more singles on EP alongside Red tracks; The More Red (Taylor's Version) Chapter. The EP included re-recorded versions of the 2012 "Hunger Games" soundtrack songs, "Safe & Sound" and "Eyes Open".

On May 30, 2025, Taylor bought the rights to her old albums, meaning she now also owns the original version.

Release and promotion[]

On June 18, 2021, Swift released the cover art of Red (Taylor's Version) and initially announced that the re-recorded album would be released on November 19, 2021.[4] Alongside the announcement, pre-orders for the digital album were made available.[14] The cover depicts Swift wearing red lipstick, a beige peacoat, and a burgundy-colored "Matti" fisherman velvet cap, seated in a vintage 1932 Chevrolet Cabriolet convertible with an autumnal background. Janessa Leoné designed the cap which quickly sold out on Leoné's website.[15][16] The customized ring that Swift wears on the cover was designed by one of Swift's real-life friends.[17] On August 5, 2021, Swift posted a video across her social media, teasing a word puzzle for the fans to solve; it spelled out "Chris Stapleton", "Phoebe Bridgers", "Babe", "Better Man", and "All Too Well Ten Minute Version".[18][19] Concurrently, pre-orders for the album's CDs went up on Swift's website.[18] She posted the official track listing on August 6.[20]

On September 30, Swift announced Red (Taylor's Version) would be released on November 12, a week earlier than scheduled.[13] She used social media to release snippets of several re-recorded songs prior to the album release: "22" and "I Knew You Were Trouble" via an Instagram story on August 5,[18] "Red" via an Instagram video on October 24,[21] and "Babe" via Tumblr on November 11.[22] Via Republic Records, Red (Taylor's Version) was released for streaming, download, and physical formats of CD and vinyls including limited editions with customized merchandise for the retailors Target Corporation, Walmart, and Urban Outfitters.[23][24] In January 2022, five streaming "chapters" containing tracks from Red (Taylor's Version) were released: Could You Be the One Chapter, She Wrote a Song About Me Chapter, The Slow Motion Chapter, and From the Vault Chapter.[25][26]

Starbucks partnered with Swift to commemorate the release of Red (Taylor's Version), which coincided with the company's "red cup holiday season".[27] The fitness equipment manufacturer Peloton announced an exclusive collaboration with Swift to use songs from the album for their on-demand fitness classes.[28] Swift promoted Red (Taylor's Version) via two NBC late-night talk shows, The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon and Late Night with Seth Meyers, which aired back-to-back on November 11.[29] Concurrently with the album's release on November 12, she premiered All Too Well: The Short Film, which accompanied "All Too Well (10 Minute Version)" and stars herself, Sadie Sink, and Dylan O'Brien; she also performed the song at the premiere.[30][31] The following day, she appeared as the musical guest and performed "All Too Well (10 Minute Version)" on Saturday Night Live.[32] The song was a number-one hit on the Billboard Hot 100, becoming the longest number-one song in history, surpassing the 8-minutes-and-37-seconds "American Pie" (1971) by Don McLean.[33]

Singles[]

Promotional singles[]

The vault tracks "I Bet You Think About Me" and "Message In A Bottle" were promoted as singles respectively to country radio[34][35] and pop/adult contemporary radio formats.[36]

"All Too Well (10 Minute Version)" was released as a digital promotional single on Swift's webstore on November 15, 2021, exclusively to U.S. customers.[37] The live acoustic version from the All Too Well: The Short Film premiere performance was released to the iTunes Store and her website for digital download the same day.[38] The acoustic "Sad Girl Autumn" version, recorded at Aaron Dessner's Long Pond Studio in Hudson Valley, was released on November 17.[39] In June 2022, a new version titled "All Too Well (10 Minute Version) (The Short Film)" was released for digital download and streaming that is 11 minutes and 26 seconds long with different instrumentals and outro.[40] The 10-minute version of the song was included on the set list for The Eras Tour (2023–2024).[41]

Commercial performance[]

Upon release, Red (Taylor's Version) broke the record for the most-streamed album created by a woman in a single day, surpassing Swift's Folklore (2020), and became the first female artist to amass over 100 million streams in a day on Spotify.[42] The album sold over 1.2 million album-equivalent units globally in its first week.[43] By December 2021, Spotify announced that Swift was the most streamed woman on the platform of the year, and the second-most streamed act overall, behind Bad Bunny.[44] The International Federation of the Phonographic Industry recognized Swift as the Global Recording Artist of 2021, marking the third consecutive time.[45] Red (Taylor's Version) sold 1.14 million copies globally in 2021.[46]

In the United States, Red (Taylor's Version) debuted atop the Billboard 200 with 605,000 first-week units that consisted of 303.23 million on-demand streams—surpassing the largest streaming week for a country album previously held by Morgan Wallen's Dangerous: The Double Album (2021). The album opened with 369,000 pure album sales—the largest figure for a country album since Luke Bryan's Crash My Party (2014). It marked Swift's tenth Billboard 200 chart topper, making Swift claim the fastest duration to earn four number ones on the Billboard 200 (less than 16 months), breaking Elton John's 46-year-old record.[47] Red (Taylor's Version) spent seven weeks atop Top Country Albums, which brought Swift's number of weeks at number one to 99, surpassing Shania Twain's 97-week record for a female artist.[48] It was the second-best-selling album of 2021 in the United States[49] and had surpassed 3.32 million US units by July 2023.[50]

On the Billboard Hot 100, 26 of the album's tracks debuted in the same week—"State of Grace (Taylor's Version)" and "State of Grace (Acoustic Version) (Taylor's Version)" were counted as one entry, as were "All Too Well (Taylor's Version)" and "All Too Well (10 Minute Version)". This set the records for the most simultaneous debuts overall and chart entries by a female artist, both of which were previously set by Swift's Lover (2019). Four of those tracks reached the top 40 region, bringing Swift's sum of top-40 entries to 85—the third-highest sum in history, surpassing Elvis Presley.[51] "All Too Well (Taylor's Version)" debuted at number one, marking the third time Swift debut at number one on both the Billboard 200 and Hot 100 charts the same week—following "Cardigan" and Folklore in August 2020 and "Willow" and Evermore in December 2020—a record for any artist.[52]

Red (Taylor's Version) peaked atop the albums charts in the Anglosphere countries, including Australia,[53] Canada, Ireland,[54] New Zealand, and the United Kingdom.[55] In Canada, it was the fifth-best-selling album of 2021, ranking within the top 10 across digital, CD, and vinyl sales metrics.[56] The album brought Swift's number of chart-topping albums to eight in the United Kingdom,[55] nine in Australia—making Swift the first artist in history to have four number-one albums within two years,[53] and seven in Ireland—the most for a female artist this millennium.[54]

Red (Taylor's Version) received universal critical acclaim.[68] At Metacritic, which assigns a normalized rating out of 100 to reviews from professional publications, the album received a weighted mean score of 91 based on 16 reviews; it is Swift's highest-rated project on the site.[57]

Lydia Burgham of The New Zealand Herald wrote that listening to Red (Taylor's Version) made her reflect on the original Red as Swift's "magnum opus".[64] Many critics opined that the re-recorded tracks had a better production with more emphasis on the instrumentation, including Rob Sheffield of Rolling Stone,[67] Helen Brown of The Independent,[62] and Hannah Mylrea of NME.[65] Under the Radar's Andy Von Pip[69] and Melissa Ruggieri of USA Today[70] highlighted Swift's vocals as being more mature and warmer. The Line of Best Fit's Paul Bridgewater wrote that they were "subtly bolder and more assertive",[63] and Kate Solomon of the i wrote that they had "newly limber muscles".[71] Some critics such as Bobby Olivier of Spin[72] and Laura Snapes of The Guardian[61] thought that the changes in production and vocals brought forth a less intense listening experience than the original album, but Ruggieri opined that they "don't diminish the spirit of the 2012 edition".[70]

The lyricism of Swift's songwriting was particularly well-received. Red (Taylor's Version) was Pitchfork's "Best New Music" of its release week; Olivia Horn summed up the album as a representation of Swift's "ecstatic, expressive vocals, tart humor, vivid imagery, and tender attention to the nuances of love and loss".[66] Von Pip wrote that the re-recorded album made the original's lyrical sentiments more lingering.[69] Anna Leszkiewicz of the New Statesman described Red (Taylor's Version) as a masterful recount of complicated early-adulthood feelings,[73] and Ana Clara Ribeiro of PopMatters wrote that the re-recorded album upheld the enduring lyrical sentiments that stood the test of time.[74] In the Financial Times, Ludovic Hunter-Tilney wrote, "the songs' carousel of romantic drama still spins vibrantly, constructed with a winning mix of wit, design and sincerity."[75] Beth Kirkbride of Clash said, Red (Taylor's Version) is a "medley of genres" toying with various styles and "an exercise in catharsis".[60]

Some critics highlighted Swift's insight and musicality. Bridgewater opined that Red (Taylor's Version) "balances fan service alongside an insightful documentation of one of modern pop's best songwriters at a key juncture in her career", and added that Swift has carefully curated the expanded tracklist without devolving from the album's original appeal.[63] Slant Magazine's Jonathan Keefe,[76] The Atlantic's Spencer Kornhaber,[77] and Consequence's Mary Siroky felt the expanded album testifies to Swift's musical growth, exuding "a stronger emotional resonance".[78] Variety's Chris Willman appreciated the vault tracks.[79]

Accolades[]

Red (Taylor's Version) received many accolades of the music industry, such as placements on best-of lists. At the 2022 Billboard Music Awards, Swift received seven nominations, including wins for Top Country Album, Top Country Artist, Top Country Female Artist, and Top Billboard 200 Artist.[80] At the 2022 American Music Awards, Swift won all six of her nominations, including Artist of the Year, Favorite Pop Female Artist, and Favorite Country Female Artist.[81] At the 65th Annual Grammy Awards, "All Too Well (10 Minute Version)", All Too Well: The Short Film, and "I Bet You Think About Me" were nominated for Song of the Year, Best Music Video, and Best Country Song, respectively, with All Too Well: The Short Film winning its category.[82][83]

Trivia[]

  • The album is Swift's third explicit album, with the previous two being folklore and evermore. The songs "I Bet You Think About Me" and "All Too Well (10 Minute Version)" are marked as explicit.
    • Although "The Man" from Swift's Lover album has explicit lyrics ("What's it like to brag about / Raking in dollars / And getting bitches and models") according to Musixmatch, it is not flagged as explicit on Spotify and Apple Music.[84] Similarly, "I Did Something Bad" from Reputation has an explicit line ("If a man talks shit then I owe him nothing"), but the song is not marked as explicit on any streaming platform.
  • The album is Swift's longest, being over two hours and ten minutes long.
  • The longest song on the album is "All Too Well (10 Minute Version)" at 10:13 and the shortest song on the album is "We Are Never Getting Back Together", at 3:13.
    • "All Too Well (10 Minute Version)" is the longest song in Swift's discography overall.
  • After breaking the record of having the longest song in the top position on the Billboard 200 Chart, Swift sent Don McLean, the previous record holder, flowers, along with a note that said: "I will never forget that I’m standing on the shoulders of giants. Your music has been so important to me. Sending love one writer of LONG SONGS to another."[85][86]
  • The photos for the album came from the Evermore photoshoot; in the Spotify canvases of some songs from the Evermore album, which are "Dorothea", "Long Story Short", and "Right Where You Left Me", Taylor is seen with the clothes she wears and is in the same locations as in the photos of Red (Taylor's Version).
