The re-recorded release includes all 14 tracks from the original album plus two previously released bonus tracks, "Ours" and "Superman", as well as six never-before-heard "From the Vault" songs: "Electric Touch" featuring Fall Out Boy, "When Emma Falls in Love", "I Can See You", "Castles Crumbling" featuring Paramore's Hayley Williams, "Foolish One" and "Timeless".
Of the two new collaborations with Fall Out Boy and Hayley Williams, Swift explains: "Since Speak Now was all about my songwriting, I decided to go to the artists who I feel influenced me most powerfully as a lyricist at that time and ask them to sing on the album. They're so cool and generous for agreeing to support my version of Speak Now."
2023's Speak Now (Taylor's Version) is the third release of re-recordings.
Says Swift: "I first made Speak Now, completely self-written, between the ages of 18 and 20. The songs that came from this time in my life were marked by their brutal honesty, unfiltered diaristic confessions and wild wistfulness. I love this album because it tells a tale of growing up, flailing, flying and crashing…and living to speak about it. With six extra songs I've sprung loose from the vault, I absolutely cannot wait to celebrate Speak Now (Taylor's Version) with you."
