1989 album with its songs

Back in 2014, when 1989 was released, it resonated deeply with fans' emotions. Many have experienced conflicting emotions when listening to those songs after Scooter Braun acquired the rights to Swift's first 6 albums with Big Machine Records. With songs like – "Style”, "Blank Space”, "Bad Blood”, and "Shake it Off”, the 1989 album became an integral part of the listeners' lives. When the re-recording was announced shortly after the release of Speak Now (Taylor's Version), fans were eager to reclaim ownership of their beloved album.
