Taylor Swift has opened up on the origins of fan-favourite ‘All Too Well’, revealing that the track originally started life as a 10-minute epic.Appearing on Rolling Stone‘s 500 Greatest Albums podcast, Swift revealed how the track, which features on 2012’s ‘Red’, started with an ad-libbing session in the recording studio.“It included the F-word and basically I remember my sound guy was like, ‘Hey, I burned a CD of that thing that you were doing in case you want it.’ And I was like, ‘Sure,'” Swift explained.“I ended up taking it home and listening to it.

And I was like, ‘I actually really like this but it definitely is like 10 minutes long and I need to pare it down.'”But in the end, she and songwriter Liz Rose opted to cut down seven extra.
