One of the most exciting aspects of the reimagined album is the inclusion of two special collaborations. The track “Castles Crumbling” will feature Hayley Williams, the lead vocalist of the popular rock band Paramore. Additionally, “Electric Touch” will showcase the talents of Fall Out Boy, a renowned pop-punk band. Swift made the announcement on Twitter, where she also shared her inspiration behind choosing these particular artists. She expressed her admiration for their powerful influence on her songwriting during the time of the original album’s release.

The revelation of the four new songs, titled “When Emma Falls in Love,” “I Can See You,” “Foolish One,” and “Timeless,” further heightened excitement among fans, as they eagerly anticipate the unique musical experiences these additions will bring.

During a recent Nashville show on May 5, Swift confirmed that “Speak Now” would be her next re-released album. Reflecting on the emotional depth and vulnerability of the songs, she took to social media to express her love for this particular album. Swift described it as a tale of growing up, experiencing moments of triumph and failure, and ultimately finding the courage to speak one’s truth.

Ahead of the re-release, Swift’s ex-boyfriend, actor Taylor Lautner, lightheartedly addressed the impact of the breakup songs on him and other rumored subjects. He playfully acknowledged the well-known ballad “Back to December,” widely believed to be about their relationship. Lautner showed his support for the album, even making a humorous reference to John Mayer, another one of Swift’s exes, and the subject of the scathing track “Dear John”.

Swift’s decision to re-record her entire discography stems from her ongoing battle for ownership of her master recordings with her previous label, Big Machine Records.

Each re-release has also come with additional content, such as extended versions of fan favorites and exciting collaborations.
