She is a powerhouse of a woman. The letter she wrote to Apple, the producer she called out for being a.hole, re-recording her work that was almost stolen from her, calling out shitty old boyfriends. THIS WOMAN DOES NOT SUFFER FOOLS. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
It's a concept album and the main question is what keeps you up at night.
So it's, you know, you could be up at night because you're reeling from just having met
someone and you're falling for them.
Or you could be plotting revenge.
You could be...
Garlic.
Garlic bread.
Yeah.
You could be thinking about the time that they painted your teeth brown.
You could be, you could be thinking about what could have been, you know, there's just
so many possibilities.
If you think of that as like a creative writing prompt, which is what I did, that's where
the album came from.
And this album couldn't have only, I mean, amazing reviews.
You broke streaming records.
And a lot of the rave reviews have asked the question, and it is a question, that the great
songwriting on this album, is part of it due to the fact that you've been doing this sort
of strange work of re-recording your back catalogue.
So it was like you were doing homework on songwriting.
I think so.
I really do.
I've been, so I've been re-recording my first six albums because there was a thing that
happened where I had wanted to own my work of my first six albums.
When I changed record labels, my first six albums were actually sold away from me.
And so I decided to just, I just figured if I made them the first time, I can make them
again.
I love it.
But tell me this, is it working?
Like, are radio stations playing the Taylor version?
Yes.
They've actually, there's actually, one of the things I was most thankful for was there's
a company of many stations in America called iHeart, and they have sworn to only play my
new versions, and they've said that they'll switch it out for the old versions every time
I put out a new version of a song, which is just like, it's so heartwarming to me because
this is something that I care about, but I don't expect other people to care about it.
It's something that's very personal to me, and it's a lot of work, but it's like, it's
really fun and rewarding for me, and I can't believe people have actually gotten behind
it the way they have.
