1989 (Taylor's Version) is the fourth re-recorded album by American singer-songwriter Taylor Swift. It was released on October 27, 2023, by Republic Records, as part of Swift's re-recording project following the 2019 dispute over the master recordings of her back catalog. The album is a re-recording of Swift's fifth studio album, 1989 (2014). She announced the re-recording at the final Los Angeles show of her sixth concert tour, the Eras Tour, on August 9, 2023.

A 1980s-inspired synth-pop album, 1989 (Taylor's Version) is characterized by upbeat arrangements of synthesizers and percussion. It contains re-recorded versions of the 16 songs from 1989{{'s}} deluxe edition and five previously unreleased "From the Vault" tracks.{{Efn|This article refers to these tracks as "vault tracks" for concision.}} Swift, Jack Antonoff, and Christopher Rowe produced the majority of the album; Ryan Tedder, Noel Zancanella, Shellback, and Imogen Heap reprised their production roles. Extended editions of the album additionally feature the re-recorded versions of the One Chance soundtrack song "Sweeter than Fiction" (2013) and the Kendrick Lamar remix of "Bad Blood" (2015).

Music critics praised 1989 (Taylor's Version), with emphasis on the production, Swift's vocals, and the vault tracks. The album topped record charts in Australia, Canada, and European territories including France, Germany, Italy, Spain, and the United Kingdom. In the United States, 1989 (Taylor's Version) marked Swift's 13th number-one album on the Billboard 200 and record-extending sixth album to sell over one million first-week copies. Seven of its songs concurrently became top-10 entries on the Billboard Hot 100, with the vault tracks "Is It Over Now?", "Now That We Don't Talk", and "{{-'}}Slut!{{'-}}" occupying the top three spots. In 2024, Apple Music placed the album at number 18 on its list of the 100 Best Albums.

Background

Taylor Swift released her fifth studio album, 1989, on October 27, 2014, under Big Machine Records. Inspired by 1980s synth-pop, Swift conceived 1989 to recalibrate her artistry to pop after promoting her first four albums to country radio.{{cite web |last=Vinson |first=Christina |date=September 8, 2014 |title=Taylor Swift On Turning Away from Country Music on 1989 |url=https://tasteofcountry.com/taylor-swift-pop-country-songs-1989/ |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200630003942/https://tasteofcountry.com/taylor-swift-pop-country-songs-1989/ |archive-date=June 30, 2020 |access-date=August 7, 2020 |work=Taste of Country}} The album received generally positive critical reviews and sold over 10 million copies worldwide.{{sfn|McNutt|2020|p=78}}{{Cite news |date=June 9, 2017 |title=Taylor Swift Returns to Spotify on the Day Katy Perry's Album Comes Out |publisher=BBC News |url=http://www.bbc.co.uk/newsbeat/article/40215361/taylor-swift-returns-to-spotify-on-the-day-katy-perrys-album-comes-out |access-date=June 9, 2017 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170609075820/http://www.bbc.co.uk/newsbeat/article/40215361/taylor-swift-returns-to-spotify-on-the-day-katy-perrys-album-comes-out |archive-date=June 9, 2017}} Three of its singles—"Shake It Off", "Blank Space", and "Bad Blood"—reached number one on the Billboard Hot 100.{{cite magazine |last=Unterberger |first=Andrew |date=July 6, 2018 |title=While You Weren't Looking, Taylor Swift Scored Her Biggest Reputation Radio Hit |url=https://www.billboard.com/articles/columns/pop/8464159/taylor-swift-delicate-reputation-biggest-radio-hit |url-status=live |magazine=Billboard |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180707010902/https://www.billboard.com/articles/columns/pop/8464159/taylor-swift-delicate-reputation-biggest-radio-hit |archive-date=July 7, 2018 |access-date=October 11, 2020 |url-access=subscription}} At the 58th Annual Grammy Awards, 1989 made Swift the first female musician to win the Grammy Award for Album of the Year twice—her first win was for Fearless in 2010.{{cite magazine |last=Lynch |first=Joe |date=February 19, 2016 |title=Taylor Swift Joins Elite Club to Win Grammy Album of the Year More Than Once: See the Rest |url=http://www.billboard.com/articles/news/grammys/6882510/taylor-swift-grammy-album-of-the-year-win-multiple |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160301073145/http://www.billboard.com/articles/news/grammys/6882510/taylor-swift-grammy-album-of-the-year-win-multiple |archive-date=March 1, 2016 |access-date=March 1, 2016 |magazine=Billboard}}

Most re-recorded tracks were produced by Swift and Christopher Rowe. The remaining were co-produced by their original producers—Antonoff, Ryan Tedder, Noel Zancanella and Imogen Heap. Swedish producer Shellback, who produced multiple songs on 1989 alongside Max Martin, only produced "Wildest Dreams (Taylor's Version)" with Swift and Rowe, while Martin was not involved in the production of the re-recording. All of the vault tracks were written and produced by Swift and Antonoff, except "Say Don't Go", which was co-written by the American songwriter Diane Warren.{{Cite magazine |last=Spanos |first=Brittany |date=October 27, 2023 |title=The Sadness of 'Slut'—And More of Our Takeaways from Taylor Swift's New Vault Tracks |url=https://www.rollingstone.com/music/music-features/taylor-swift-1989-vault-tracks-revelations-1234864433/ |url-access=limited |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20231029213056/https://www.rollingstone.com/music/music-features/taylor-swift-1989-vault-tracks-revelations-1234864433/ |archive-date=October 29, 2023 |access-date=October 29, 2023 |magazine=Rolling Stone}}

Music and lyrics

{{Further information|1989 (album)#Composition{{!}}1989 (album) § Composition}}

=Composition=

1989 (Taylor's Version) is a synth-pop record. Its sound is driven by sinuous melodies, burbling synthesizers, and heavy percussions. According to NME, the album has a 1980s-inspired synth-pop sound, but is "an evolution of Swift's own sound" rather than a "kitschy pastiche" of retro influences. Various critics have opined that the only sonic difference between 1989 and 1989 (Taylor's Version) is Swift's vocals, which have become technically stronger and richer.{{efn|Attributed to The Independent{{'s}} Adam White, The Line of Best Fit{{'s}} Kelsey Barnes, The Guardian{{'s}} Rachel Aroesti, and The Daily Telegraph{{'s}} Neil McCormick}} According to Clash{{'s}} Alex Berry, the re-recording has a "cleaner" instrumentation. Slant Magazine{{'s}} Jonathan Keefe identified minor changes: the clicking pen noise on "Blank Space" sounds less like the spring action of a ballpoint pen, the "ah-ah-ah" vocal hook of "New Romantics" is more staccato, the reverb on "Out of the Woods" is more prominent, and the guitar's tone on "Style" is altered.{{Cite magazine |last=Keefe |first=Jonathan |date=October 30, 2023 |title=Taylor Swift 1989 (Taylor's Version) Review: A Poptimist Through Line |url=https://www.slantmagazine.com/music/taylor-swift-1989-taylors-version-album-review/ |access-date=October 31, 2023 |magazine=Slant Magazine |archive-date=October 31, 2023 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20231031030312/https://www.slantmagazine.com/music/taylor-swift-1989-taylors-version-album-review/ |url-status=live }}

Various critics opined that the sonics of the five vault songs were pertinent to the 1980s-inspired sound of the original 1989.{{efn|Attributed to Aroesti, Clash{{'s}} Alex Berry, American Songwriter{{'s}} Alex Hopper, and Billboard{{'s}} Jason Lipshutz{{Cite magazine |last=Lipshutz |first=Jason |date=October 27, 2023 |title=Every 'From The Vault' Song Ranked on Taylor Swift's 1989 (Taylor's Version): Critic's Picks |url=https://www.billboard.com/lists/taylor-swift-1989-taylors-version-vault-songs-ranked/ |url-status=live |magazine=Billboard |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20231029120931/https://www.billboard.com/lists/taylor-swift-1989-taylors-version-vault-songs-ranked/ |archive-date=October 29, 2023 |access-date=October 29, 2023}}}} Their production incorporates reverb and keyboards that AllMusic's Fred Thomas found reminiscent of late-1980s radio. According to The Line of Best Fit{{'s}} Kelsey Barnes, the vault tracks are of different pop subgenres similar to the 2014 recording.

"Say Don't Go" is about hanging on to an unfruitful relationship; it has a pop rock production consisting of isolated vocal patterns and 1980s-inspired drums. The disco song "Now That We Don't Talk" incorporates disco grooves and falsetto vocals in the chorus, and its lyrics see Swift moving on from an ex-lover while making fun of his lifestyle and tastes.

"Suburban Legends" depicts Swift yearning for a hopeful but unfruitful romance. It features an insistent disco groove and an outro of dissipating synthesizers in a production that People's Jeff Nelson described as "driving, sometimes wind chime-y".{{Cite magazine |last=Nelson |first=Jeff |date=October 27, 2023 |title=Taylor Swift Shines on Twinkly, Dreamy 1989 (Taylor's Version): Breaking Down the 5 New Vault Tracks |url=https://people.com/taylor-swift-1989-taylors-version-vault-tracks-review-8383507 |url-status=live |magazine=People |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20231029111826/https://people.com/taylor-swift-1989-taylors-version-vault-tracks-review-8383507 |archive-date=October 29, 2023 |access-date=October 29, 2023}} "Is It Over Now?" chronicles the end of a relationship, with lyrics about mistakes committed by both partners and the mixed feelings that ensued.{{Cite web |last=Ahlgrim |first=Callie |title=All 5 vault tracks on Taylor Swift's 1989 (Taylor's Version), ranked |url=https://www.insider.com/taylor-swift-1989-taylors-version-vault-track-ranking-2023-10 |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20231030073001/https://www.insider.com/taylor-swift-1989-taylors-version-vault-track-ranking-2023-10 |archive-date=October 30, 2023 |access-date=October 29, 2023 |website=Insider |publisher=}} Musically, the song is an electropop and synth-pop{{Sfn|Zaleski|2024|p=129}} power ballad that features dense reverb, synthesizers, and echoing drum machines.
