Taylor Swift’s “Midnights” album simply arrived, however followers are already wanting towards the long run. Means, method again in 2019, Swift introduced that she was going to re-record her first six albums and all of the music she launched earlier than she modified report firms. She alleged that her earlier firm, Large Machine Data, would not let her purchase again her grasp recordings, so she would simply make new ones. New variations of “Fearless” and “Pink,” known as “Taylor’s Variations,” got here out in 2021, which made numerous followers assume that she’d launch extra of the re-recorded albums in 2022. However Swift ended up altering issues this yr with the discharge of “Midnights.” Nonetheless, on the similar time, she’s been leaving numerous clues that one specific re-recording is on the way in which: “Converse Now (Taylor’s Model).”
Within the music video for “Bejeweled,” Swift included a ton of Easter eggs that time towards “Converse Now.” The video options music from two songs that appeared on the 2010 album, “Enchanted” and “Lengthy Reside,” and Laura Dern even says, “Converse not” within the video. Plus, the video got here out Oct. 25 — and “Converse Now” was launched Oct. 25, 2010. Whether or not these are clues towards the discharge of the album or pink herrings to mess with followers is anybody’s guess.
There was additionally an incident from earlier this yr that had followers questioning if “Converse Now” was on its method. In a January interview with the LA Times, Blur frontman Damon Albarn fully dismissed Swift’s songwriting expertise. “[Taylor Swift] does not write her personal songs. There is a large distinction between a songwriter and a songwriter who co-writes,” the 54-year-old British musician advised the outlet. “A very attention-grabbing songwriter is Billie Eilish and her brother. It is simply darker — much less endlessly upbeat. Far more minor and odd.”
It did not take lengthy earlier than Swift responded on to Albarn’s claims that she does not pen her personal songs. “I used to be such a giant fan of yours till I noticed this. I write ALL of my very own songs,” she tweeted on Jan. 24. “Your scorching take is totally false and SO damaging. You do not have to love my songs nevertheless it’s actually f*cked as much as attempt to discredit my writing. WOW.”
Albarn later apologized for his comments, tweeting: “I completely agree with you. i had a dialog about songwriting and sadly it was lowered to clickbait. I apologise unreservedly and unconditionally. The very last thing I’d wish to do is discredit your songwriting. I hope you perceive. – Damon”
The trade made numerous followers consider “Converse Now.” That is as a result of each track on “Converse Now” was written by Swift solo when she was 19. The album additionally contains a rebuttal towards her critics, the enjoyable and sassy “Imply.” “Converse Now” is the reply to individuals who assume Swift cannot write good songs on her personal.
For now, we’re nonetheless ready for “Converse Now (Taylor’s Model)” and different re-recordings. Some followers assume that “1989 (Taylor’s Model)” is extra prone to seem first, since Swift has already launched a number of the songs on that album. However the singer is presently embroiled in a lawsuit about “Shake It Off,” that album’s first single, which might be delaying it. Swifties will simply have to attend for his or her idol to talk, now.
