Taylor Swift's new original song for the Cats movie soundtrack has arrived, and it's a haunting ballad that will appease both the singer's fanbase and fans of the classic musical.

Swift cowrote the song for the live-action adaptation of Andrew Lloyd Webber's Broadway musical with Webber himself, who collaborated with the American Music Awards headliner on the lyrics for the track that will be performed by ballet dancer Francesca Hayward, who plays Victoria in the film. Luckily Swift's version of the song can be heard above, and it's stunning.

"All that I wanted, was to be wanted," Swift belts out. "And the memories were lost long ago / So I'll dance with these beautiful ghosts." Listen to "Beautiful Ghosts" in full above, and then refresh your memory on the star-studded cast of Cats (which includes Swift as Bombalurina) before it hits theaters on Dec. 20.
