    Somehow she managed to, once again, outdo her own work. Her vocals have improved a great deal since the release of fearless (old version) and you can appreciate it in this nostalgic yet brand new record.

    Fearless is one of the best country albums I've ever heard. The tracks sung with Taylor's mature voice made the experience of listening to this album 10x more interesting.
    The world belongs to Taylor Swift. She's the music industry!

Fearless (Taylor's Version) makes it feel like you're travelling back in 2008 and recalling the moments of how your life were back in the days. Those moments in our lives are remarkable and Fearless is one of it. It gave us great tunes to dance in our bedroom like no one is watching, and also can make us cry in our pillow everytime we are having a bad time. It brought back our childhood moments and to some, the teenage years that helped us go through it. The matured vocals of Swift made all songs rejuvenated following the production that stayed to its core and tunes sound still the same but better. With Swift, tapping her folklore/evermore era friends: Jack Antonoff and Aaron Dessner as her producer to the vault songs. The vault songs are really great and it is really sad knowing that she locked away great songs to the vault because of circumstances. Once again, Taylor Swift is making everyone's life better especially with the revival of songs from Fearless (Taylor's Version).… Expand

This is one of her biggest decisions for me, because releasing the album itself again requires a lot of plans and she did a great job with this. No doubt why everyone loves her.

    At first, I could swear it is the perfectly same album as the ‘08 Swift’s Original “Fearless”, but as I got deeper into the album and the nostalgic hits, I started getting it. Taylor remakes the album as a grown woman and very experienced musician, and gives it a deeper and more mature meaning. Loved it! Cannot wait to see what else she’s gonna pull from her sleeve.. 10/10.

    Taylor’s production an current older voice give this album the perfect touch, Taylor Swift gave us a trip back in time with this album and made us dance, sing and cry at the same time as when we were tender teenagers
    Mi fav songs from The Vault are: - Mr. perfectly fine
    - That’s when - Don’t you - Bye bye baby

    There is something magical about listening to her grown self singing the songs from her teenage years. "I thought I'd marry him someday but I realized some bigger dreams of mine" just hits different. Also, it feels like now she has more musical knowledge and experience in every song.

    Most obviously changed is her voice, which has strengthened and deepened over the years. Her choruses are a bit less breathy, and she glides into belting without sounding strained. There are micro-changes in inflection.

    Fearless (Taylor’s Version) states boldly, simply and perhaps, generously, that this is a story still worth telling – and a fight worth fighting.

    Swift largely re-creates the arrangements and feel of the original 2008 album, yet her voice and phrasing has aged, giving the music a hint of bittersweet gravity. That said, it's only a hint; Fearless (Taylor's Version) serves the purpose of offering new versions that could be substituted for the originals for licensing purposes. It's to Swift's credit that the album is an absorbing (if long) listen anyway.
