The 26-track album is a mix of the original album and previously unheard songs, including “You All Over Me (From the Vault)” featuring Maren Morris.

The original version of “Fearless” was released in 2008 and was the singer’s most successful record, with more than 7 million albums sold.

The album release marks the first major step in the singer's mission to regain control over her material after Scooter Braun acquired the label under which the singer recorded her early albums and sold the master rights to her first six albums for $300 million in November 2020.

She plans to re-record all of the old music that made fans fall in love with her in the mid-2000s.

The new version featured some lyric changes in some of the songs, but the 31-year-old singer stayed true to the original music and lyrics for the most part. The biggest noticeable change throughout the album is Swift's voice, which has grown stronger and more mature since the original album’s release.
