And we ARE LOVING IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I CRIED I GASPED I CHEERED I CLAPPED!!!!!! NOW THISSSS IS THE SPEAK NOW TAYLOR'S VERSION FOR THE LIZARD...LITEARLLY CURATED FOR THE LIZARD...I CANNOT STRESS THIS ENOUGH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Where to even begin to unpack this bounteous fucking feast of information....

First of all - I LOVE that dress, and the little ballerina shoes, and her big curly hair. The dress is PERFECT Speak Now, so pretty and princessy and just MWAH!!! CHEF'S KISS!!! She looks gorgeous and absolutely perfect - so far this photoshoot is EATING THE FUCK out of Red TV and Fearless TV. 

Second of all - I am noting that neither of the two songs we suspected would be tastefully and quietly removed (Innocent and Better Than Revenge) are standing loud and proud on that tracklist...I have to smile....she even referenced Innocent in her post by saying "I recorded this album when I was 32 and still growing up now" lmfaooo I reckon she simply couldn't resist, and is also angling to have it NOT make people think of Kanye or even be about him, and is now perhaps making it about herself. Which we love. As for Better Than Revenge, we still run the risk of her trying to edit and girlbossify it lmfao. But I'm starting to think she won't, and will simply present it as it was. 

Now into the meat of it all - THE VAULT TRACKS!! 

Electric Touch featuring FALL OUT BOY. I laugh. I scream. I cheer. I dance. I am gagging absolutely gagging to see what they create together. Speak Now is a perfect record to feature them on because it already has a little touch of that pop/punk sound a la Story of Us and Better Than Revenge, and it also came out at a time when pop/punk was utterly raging. SNTV is also now coming out at a time when pop/punk is having a massive renaissance so she's literally a genius galaxy brained queen for knowing that THIS is the re-release to feature the boys on. 

When Emma Falls In Love. This is the one title that's giving me pause because it seems like it could be a little bit corny, cheesy, etc. Although we do have to stan the potential Emma Stone teas LMFAO 

I Can See You - well okay!! Let's celebrate that!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Castles Crumbling featuring HAYLEY WILLIAMS. Another pop/punk serve. Also, Hayley Williams being chosen for Speak Now is not only the serve because of the pop/punk thing, but also because she inspired Speak Now the song - there's a huge full circle thing going on here that is making me very emo. I'm very excited for this. As many of you know, Castles Crumbling has been my white whale for more than a decade because it's a title that the inner circle had back in the day. And now it's finally coming out!!! 

Foolish One - another girlie we can only barely fathom about....

Timeless - A PERFECT TITLE FOR A SPEAK NOW TRACK. No notes!!!!!!!!!!!! NO NOTES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! BELLISSIMO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! BRAVA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
