Within the year since she released her last album, Midnights, Taylor Swift has put out a re-recorded version of her 2010 album Speak Now featuring 22 songs, performed for over three hours every night on the US leg of her Eras world tour, made a film of the show that can currently be seen in cinemas by those who can’t wait for next summer’s UK dates, and embarked upon a new romance that seems to involve attending a lot of American football matches and answering to the portmanteau “Traylor”.
So as she releases the new version of her nine-year old album 1989, the fourth of six that she is completely remaking as an extraordinarily elaborate snub to the investment company that bought her original master recordings without her blessing in 2019, she may find her fans exhausted and penniless.
