    Red(Taylor's Version) is going to be a handbook for storytelling songwriting...the perfect quilt net of almost 18 genres that you can wrap around on a perfect autumn day, that is something rarely seen for an artist to make his/her listeners experience...

    If "Red" was already an espectacular album, Taylor's Version is even a more stunning record. More mature voice, cohesive and clean sound, new gem songs that doesn't make the album lose its concept and meaning, this is pop perfection... ♥️♥️♥️♥️

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Swift's re-recording of this album is anything I ever could have wanted and more. The vocals on all songs initially present on the 2012 version are evidently better and more refined, whilst its "(From The Vault)" were all sensational, and I cannot fathom how it has taken nine years for the world to hear the masterpieces that make it complete.

    I furthermore believe the "(From The Vault)" songs perfectly encapsulate what Swift's "Red" era was more than the original album ever could; "All Too Well (10 Minute Version) (Taylor's Version) (From The Vault)" showcases her vulnerability in a toxic relationship with a power dynamic conceived to exploit her, in a truly saddening, heart-wrenching, nuanced storytelling fashion, and somehow lasts a full ten minutes without seeming repetitive or boring to the listener – fully immersing them in her traumatic experience and her narrative. Additionally, other songs, such as "Message In A Bottle (Taylor's Version) (From The Vault)" having a more dance-pop, "1989"-esque sound illustrate how restrictive Big Machine Records (her former label) were of the music Swift released, and how tentative they were in her transition to pop from country music throughout her "Red" era.

    Overall, this album is truly a masterpiece, as it both allows us to reminisce on the nostalgia of music Swift released nearly a decade ago, whilst still being more emotional, vulnerable and wonderfully chaotic than before. Her lyricism is brilliant and enticing, only further matched by her matured vocals. It's spectacular.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This album again showcases what a lyrical genius Taylor really is. She not only made a Grammy nominated album even better but also wrote all the songs in her early 20s. Taylor is able to tell all kind of stories, whether they be about heartbreak, betrayal, happiness or love, in a delicate and poetic way, drawing us listeners in and feeling every emotion as if e had lived that experience ourselves.
    No song sounds like the stolen version, no, they all got a beautiful twist to them making the listening experience something exciting and new. Even if we hadn't gotten 5 new absolutely magnificent pieces of art from the vault, that never should have been locked up in there.
    Not to mention the 10 minute All Too Well Version that couldn't be more angelic and heartbreaking all at once. This song truly is a story narrated by Taylor in a way that even Shakespeare or Goethe would appear as bungling amateurs. To this day it's still a shame that Red never got the Grammy for album of the year, but this version would have deserved it so much more. It is the epitome of perfection mixed with all the emotions that a human is capable of feeling.    … Expand

    Red (Taylor's Version) deserves a grammy because every song from this album screams perfection. All humans and animals can't change my mind.

    And that made me want to die
    The idea you had of me, who was she?
    A never-needy ever lovely jewel whose shine reflects on you Not weeping in a party bathroom Some actress asking me what happened, you, that's what happened, you You who charmed my dad with self-effacing jokes Sipping coffee like you're on a late night show But then he watched me watch the front door all night, willing you to    And that made me want to die

    She took a great album and turned into an EVEN BETTER album. Her wonderful vocals are way stronger than the original version, this just shows how much she’s grown as an artist.

    Pure nostalgia with the endless feeling of being absolutely lost in a mundane in paradise. The album sounds happier than the stolen version and it really reflects where she is now in life, in a much more happier place

    Down a dead-end street
    Faster than the wind, passionate as sin
    Ending so suddenly

    Loving him is like trying to change your mind
    Once you’re already flying through the free fall
    Like the colours in autumn, so bright
    Just before they lose it all

    Losing him was blue, like I’d never known
    Missing him was dark gray, all alone
    Forgetting him was like trying to know somebody you’ve never met
    But loving him was red
    Loving him was red    … Expand

    If you thought the original Red was any good, then this album is beyond perfect. The improved vocals and the added vault tracks are just beautiful. Give it a listen and I’ll guarantee you will find a new favourite

    All the songs sound more fresh with her mature vocals and productions. The vault tracks are great and better than Fearless tv imo. My favorite one is I Bet You Think About Me. Congrats Taylor!!

    Some say a masterpiece can’t be done twice but omg this album, her mature voice, the new songs, it’s like taking a ride to the past and come back as new.
    Just Taylor can do better something already perfect

    Swift lays the groundwork of her songs with good chords in Red (Taylor’s Version), but she also enhances the songs’ power with catchy lyrics and melodies (“You fooound me / You fooound me / You fooound me-e-e-e-“).

    Truth is that this is now the definitive version of Red. It may also ensure that the good old boys who casually sold her music, seemingly out of a mixture of greed and spite, won’t get one red cent from Red, and it proves you can take a masterpiece and make it sound even better.

    The highlight of these is a ten-minute version of "All Too Well," a bitter ballad that was already one of the peaks of Red and is now turned into an epic kiss-off. This, along with excavated songs, are reason enough for Swift to revisit Red and they, not the re-recordings, are the reason to return to Red [Taylor's Version].
