Taylor Swift‘s latest rerelease came with six previously unheard songs — but one fan’s vinyl appeared to play something even more unexpected.

Taylor Swift's newly released "Speak Now (Taylor's Version)" has brought back her fan favorite hit "Dear John" and resurfaced her alleged romance with musician John Mayer. Swift re-recorded her 2010 album at the age of 32, and revisited some of the emotions she felt back then.The much anticipated re-record was released on July 7, and has fans buzzing about her romantic link to the "Gravity" crooner, who is rumored to be her inspiration for the album's fifth track.

Taylor Swift is going back to December with her “I Can See You” music video, in which she is taking back control of her illustrious music career.

Taylor Swift knows there’s no better song inspiration than relationships — and she’s seemingly written several tunes about her whirlwind romance with John Mayer.

John Mayer appears to be addressing Taylor Swift‘s fans.

Taylor Swift is offering an olive branch with one telling lyric from . With the release of her latest re-recorded album, Swift made a subtle tweak to one of the infamous lines from her fiery breakup track, «Better Than Revenge.» While scorning a former boyfriend's new lover, Swift sang in her 2010 release, «She's better known for the things that she does on the mattress.»  Now, in her 2023 version, she declares, «He was a moth to the flame, she was holding the matches.»While unconfirmed by Swift herself, fans have long speculated that the song was inspired by Swift's split from Joe Jonas and his subsequent romance with Camilla Belle. Jonas and Swift briefly dated in 2008 and split during what Swift has described as a 25-second phone call. ‼️ | @TaylorSwift13 changed the lyrics of “Better Than Revenge” in “Taylor's Version”! pic.twitter.com/a7wGFm1bGhFor their part, Swift and Jonas have mended fences in recent years. The Jonas Brothers singer even made a lyrical change to the band's 2009 song, «Much Better,» during a 2022 performance for their Las Vegas Residency. «I got a rep for breaking hearts / Now I’m done with superstars and all the tears on her guitar,» Jonas sang on the tune's original, seemingly referencing Swift's debut album track, «Teardrops on My Guitar.» In his update, Jonas crooned, «Now I’m cool with superstars and all the tears on her guitar,» prompting cheers from the audience. A reminder during the Better Than Revenge discourse that Joe Jonas changed the lyrics to Much Better to ‘Cool with superstars’ ✨#SpeakNowTaylorsVersionpic.twitter.com/IVF7hPn8XIBut back in 2016, Belle appeared to throw fuel on the fire of Swift's high-profile feud with Kanye West and Kim Kardashian.

John Mayer is seeing it all now that his ex Taylor Swift has rereleased her 2010 album, Speak Now.

Friday, July 7 marks the release date of Speak Now (Taylor’s Version), Taylor Swift’s re-recorded version of her 2010 album.

Taylor Swift fans have a number of reasons to be excited at the moment - and on Friday (July 7) they were treated to six new songs from the vault.

Drake has left his fans wondering what’s up after a photo he shared on his Instagram Story.

.The 2010 song is one of the most controversial of Swift's career, with lyrics that people have called for years. As the song has aged, however, it's also developed a culty appreciation, the kind of song you scream-sing at karaoke with a winking admission that it's kind of f*cked up. (See also: Paramore's “Misery Business.") Of course the song is petty with some low blows to its subject, but Swift was also writing from the raw emotional minefield of teenagedom.“I was 18 when I wrote that,” she told back in 2014.

It’s officially 2010 again for Swifties as Taylor Swift dropped Speak Now (Taylor’s Version) on Friday, July 7.

Taylor Swift has re-written a problematic lyric on ‘Speak Now (Taylor’s Version)’.The pop star released the re-recording of her 2010 third album today (July 7) as she continues to recreate her first six records after the controversial sales of her masters in recent years.It follows on from ‘Fearless (Taylor’s Version)’ and ‘Red (Taylor’s Version)’, both of which came out in 2021.On the track ‘Better Than Revenge (Taylor’s Version)’, the singer has changed a line from the original song that had been interpreted by some as being “anti-feminist” and having a slut-shaming message.“She’s an actress, whoa/ She’s better known for the things that she does on the mattress, whoa,” Swift sings on the 2010 version of the song. However, the updated ‘Better Than Revenge’ lyric goes: “She’s an actress, whoa/ He was a moth to the flame, she was holding the matches.”The track is rumoured to have been inspired by Swift’s ex-boyfriend Joe Jonas and his post-Swift girlfriend, actress Camilla Belle.

third studio album Speak Now.“It’s here. It’s yours, it’s mine, it’s ours,” Swift wrote in an emotional social media post.

Chris Willman Senior Music Writer and Chief Music Critic Sorry, Hayley Williams and Fall Out Boy: Marjorie has stolen the show again. Not that Taylor Swift’s beloved grandmother actually puts in a vocal appearance from the great beyond, as she did on the “Evermore” album three years ago. But Marjorie Finlay still manages to be a dominative force in the Vault Tracks for the newly released “Speak Now (Taylor’s Version),” by having her photos appear throughout the lyric video for the closing track, “Timeless,” and having her relationship with Taylor’s granddad be a focus of the inspirational ballad. Twenty-first-century pop-punk or emo can hardly compete with that emotional a capper. But for those less sentimentally inclined, Paramore’s singer and Fall Out Boy’s Patrick Stump will be way up there in what Swift fans immediately take away from the six previously unheard compositions that have been appended to the previous 16-track running order of 2010’s “Speak Now.” The duet with Williams, “Castles Crumbling,” is particularly pungent, as a lament that just about could have been an outtake from the more recent “Folklore” or “Evermore” instead of an album that came out a full decade before those. As for the FOB-aided track, it’s the farthest thing from a Swift classic. But — having been written, like the rest of these tracks, when the artist was 18 or 19 — the number does hark back to an era when girls (and Fall Out Boys) could just wanna have fun.
