Taylor Swift sent her 93.9million Twitter followers into meltdown on Wednesday night when she confirmed 1989 (Taylor’s Version) is on its way.
Speculation about when the superstar hitmaker, 33, would be re-releasing the record has boiled over in recent weeks, and now fans can finally sleep easy knowing it’s being released in October.
Taylor revealed this week on social media: ‘Surprise!! 1989 (Taylor’s Version) is on its way to you!’
She added: ‘The 1989 album changed my life in countless ways, and it fills me with such excitement to announce that my version of it will be out October 27th.
‘To be perfectly honest, this is my most FAVORITE re-record I’ve ever done because the 5 From The Vault tracks are so insane.
‘I can’t believe they were ever left behind. But not for long!’
