"1989 (Taylor's Version)" Is Here: Listen Now

Swift officially shared the names of the five vault tracks on Sept. 20. She revealed four of the vault track titles that morning after fans solved 33 million word scrambles on Google and the last one when she posted the back covers of the album on Twitter. Surprisingly, this is the only album (so far) where there are no featured artists on the vault tracks.

There is also one extra song that will appear only on the Tangerine Edition vinyl sold exclusively at Target, "Sweeter Than Fiction (Taylor's Version)," a song Swift wrote for the 2013 movie "One Chance." If other Target bonus tracks are an indication, the song will eventually be available for streaming. Plus, the deluxe version of the album on streaming includes the Lamar remix of "Bad Blood (Taylor's Version)."

Vault tracks are marked with an asterisk.

Every "Taylor's Version" before "1989" has featured vault tracks that turned out to be collaborations with other artists. Previous collaborators include Phoebe Bridgers, Maren Morris, Keith Urban, Chris Stapleton, Ed Sheeran, Hayley Williams, and Fall Out Boy. While fans wondered who might be featured on "1989 (Taylor's Version)" when Swift posted the back cover of the album on Sept. 20, there were no other artists featured.

Earlier in September, a spokesperson for Swift addressed speculation that Swift's ex Matty Healy and his band The 1975 would appear on the album, telling Billboard, "Neither Matty Healy nor [The] 1975 are on this album."

The album does ultimately feature one collab — the Lamar appearance on "Bad Blood." However, many fans have speculated that Swift will release future collabs and remixes of the album at a later date.

"1989 (Taylor's Version)" was released on Oct. 27. The release date came after the "Shake It Off" singer dropped a lot of clues about it.

In June 2022, Swift seemingly dropped Easter eggs about its release at the Las Culturistas Culture Awards, hosted by "Saturday Night Live" star Bowen Yang and comedian Matt Rogers. She recorded two acceptance speeches for the show, and in those videos, her home is full of items that seem to reference the original "1989" era, per Vulture.

Then, this May, Swift surprise-released the music video for "Karma," and fans thought it includes even more Easter eggs pointing to an upcoming drop. In the video, Swift plays a vinyl copy of "Midnights," but the album is light blue, which fans associate with "1989." In another shot, Swift is the Greek goddess Nemesis and her pedestal has "MCMLXXXIX" carved into it; that's 1989 in Roman numerals.

Fans have also found meaning in a scene where Swift appears as three then five lightbulbs. "Speak Now" is Swift's third album; "1989" is her fifth.

One of the video's last shots was also interpreted as a clue. Swift holds a coffee cup; inside, her latte has art that looks like a clock. A finger with light-blue nail polish is by the eight on the clock, while a finger with black polish is by the two. Many fans thought that meant a "1989 (Taylor's Version)" announcement would come in August and "Reputation (Taylor's Version)" would come in February 2024.

The video for the "Speak Now (Taylor's Version)" song "I Can See You" also has a "1989 (Taylor's Version)" clue — at the end of the video, a sign over a bridge reads, "1'-9" 8.9 tv."

Swift released "Wildest Dreams (Taylor's Version)" as a one-off in September 2021. She said at the time it was because the song had become popular on TikTok.

Swift originally released the new version of "This Love" alongside the first season of Amazon Prime Video's "The Summer I Turned Pretty" in 2022.
