Taylor Swift announces 1989 Taylor's Version to be released on October 27 as she closes the 2023 US leg of her landmark Eras Tour. She has been re-recording some albums after former label Big Machine Records, sold her masters in 2019.
The re-recording of the Lavender Haze singer's - who is set to resume her blockbuster Eras tour in South America on November 9 - 2014 album sold 1.653 million albums making it the biggest debut of her record-shattering career.
1989 also marks the biggest debut of any album, based on unit sales, since Adele's 25 in 2015, Billboard reported. All 13 of the Bad Blood singer's full-length studio albums and re-recorded projects, starting with 2008's Fearless, which was her second studio album, through 2023's 1989 have debuted at number one.
Basically, as she sings on the song Mastermind from her 2022 album Midnights, 'It was all by design. Cause I'm a mastermind.' She continued: 'Music I wrote on my bedroom floor and videos I dreamed up and paid for from the money I earned playing in bars, then clubs, then arenas, then stadiums.'So she decided to re-record her version of her first six albums and what that has resulted in is the original albums being ignored in favor of the Taylor's Version albums which all include several previously unreleased songs 'From the Vault.
Mastermind: This week's album sales broke the record she'd previously set with the release of the original version of the album in 2014, at 1.287 million
