The day-long puzzle hunt on Google, which left the search engine jammed, led to Swift revealing the From the Vault tracks as “Slut!,” “Say Don’t Go,” “Now That We Don’t Talk,” “Suburban Legends,” and “Is It Over Now?”
“It’s a new soundtrack,” wrote Swift, revealing the songs on social media on Wednesday (September 20). “Here are the back covers and vault track titles for ‘1989’ (my version). I can’t wait for this one to be out, seriously. Thank you for playing along, sleuthing, puzzling, and making these reveals so much chaotic fun (which is the best kind of fun, after all).”
Originally released in 2014, 1989 featured 13 tracks and 16 songs on a deluxe edition. Taylor’s Version will feature 21 songs, including five previously unreleased songs From The Vault. These extra songs have been included in Swift’s three prior re-recordings as an exclusive for fans streaming and purchasing the album.
“Surprise!! ‘1989 (Taylor’s Version)’ is on its way to you,” wrote Swift on social media after first revealing the release of her rerecorded version of 1989, following her final show of the North American leg of her Eras Tour in August. “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 five From The Vault tracks are so insane. I can’t believe they were ever left behind. But not for long!”
