Taylor Swift made a big announcement on Wednesday night while performing the final show of her “Eras Tour” in Los Angeles: 1989 (Taylor’s Version) is coming. “Since I was a teenager I’ve wanted to own my own music and the way to do that was to re-record my albums,” she began, speaking to the deafeningly loud crowd in SoFi Stadium. “So now, here we are on the last night of the U.S.
leg of the ‘Eras Tour’, in the eighth month of the year, and the ninth day,” she continued with a sly smile, dropping breadcrumbs before officially revealing her next re-release. “There’s something that I’ve been planning for a really, really, really, ridiculously embarrassingly long time.
And I think instead of just like telling you about it, I think I’ll just sort of show you something I’ve been excited to show you,” Swift concluded, revealing a backdrop of updated 1989 artwork and an October 27 release date.
