As a dedicated Taylor Swift fan and someone who has followed her journey since her early days, I can’t help but feel like a seasoned detective in this never-ending game of Swifties’ clues and easter eggs. The anticipation for “Reputation (Taylor’s Version)” is palpable, and each concert feels like a potential goldmine for hints about its release.
Taylor Swift is famed for being one of the most industrious figures in the music world, and with numerous ventures to keep her fans, known as Swifties, thrilled – such as the unexpected double album she put out in April and her ongoing Eras Tour – there’s a palpable excitement about the potential announcement of the release date for Reputation (Taylor’s Version). At her latest Eras Tour concert in London, it appeared as though the long-awaited moment had finally come, but Swift once more left fans in a frenzy when no information regarding the upcoming re-release was disclosed.
Following the turbulent events involving Taylor Swift and Scooter Braun, the world-renowned artist continues her release of “Taylor’s Versions” of her initial six albums. The last two to be unveiled are her self-titled debut album from 2006 and the 2017 release, Reputation. Swift is well-known for hiding clues or ‘easter eggs’ in her performances, leading fans to believe that when “I Did Something Bad” was played during her acoustic set on August 17 at Wembley Stadium, an announcement about “Reputation (Taylor’s Version)” would follow. However, this did not happen, leaving Swifties in a state of confusion and distress. One fan even expressed their feelings by tweeting:
I’ve reached a point where I can’t continue like this anymore. I don’t understand why, after a year and a half of not doing something wrong, she took action without any warning. I’m feeling lost now.
Taking some deep breaths, Swifties! Let’s navigate this together. The importance of “I Did Something Bad” lies in its unique status – until Saturday, it was the only track from Reputation yet to be performed during the Eras Tour. Interestingly, Taylor Swift has previously re-released 1989 (Taylor’s Version) and Speak Now (Taylor’s Version) on the day she played the last songs from those albums. The fact that she hasn’t done the same thing a third time echoes the lyrics she sang in that song: “They never see it coming / what I do next.”
It appears that fans were left unsure, feeling either disappointed for waiting such a long time for the song and it not being released, or amused by how strongly everyone embraced the theory we presented. A user on platform X humorously commented:
Some Taylor Swift fans strongly believed that she had let them down by not playing the anticipated song, as it seemed clear that she was well aware of their eagerness to hear it. Other enthusiasts voiced their sentiment online.
As a die-hard Taylor Swift fan, I’ve got to say, there’s something intriguing about the whirlwind of theories surrounding her. Even when one theory gets debunked, there’s always another one waiting in the wings. Take the recent buzz about “Reputation (Taylor’s Version)” – though we didn’t get the long-awaited announcement with “I Did Something Bad,” there were plenty of hints that it could be on the horizon. For instance, her recent playful jabs at Kanye West instead of Kim Kardashian have got fans buzzing about a potential comeback!
Additionally, it’s worth noting that August 18, 2017, is a significant date as Taylor Swift deactivated her social media accounts prior to the launch of her album “Reputation”. Consequently, users like this X one are closely monitoring everything related to Taylor Swift today.
Speaking as a devoted Swiftie myself, I must add that during the August 17 concert, Taylor Swift made a move that sent our hearts racing – twice! She subtly mimed a snake gesture with her hand, a symbol close to her heart, and it only fueled our excitement even more. Check out the videos below for proof!
Is she playfully taunting or is she baiting? At this moment, it’s quite hard to discern! A hint surfaced during the Red phase when she presented a “22” cap to a fortunate audience member. Usually, she displays a “22” with her hands while singing the lyrics, but on August 17, she showed a “20” instead, causing fans to suspect that the announcement for the Reputation (Taylor’s Version) might be made on August 20 – her last day in London.
Time alone will reveal the outcome, but for those who crave more of Taylor Swift’s magic, immerse yourself once more in cherished Eras Tour highlights by streaming “Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour (Taylor’s Version)” with a Disney+ membership.
