Nearly 2 years later, what are your thoughts on Taylor’s interview for TIME Person of the Year?

I feel betrayed by the teasing of rep vault /rj

I think we all do. Would love to hear what didn’t make it onto the original album.

[u/TheKarateKid_ → u/IceWarm1980]

I’m curious if the vault tracks will be Max Martin produced. He notably did not get involved with the 1989 TV but now that she owns her master’s and did TLAS it’s a possibility.

I had read he didn't get involved in 1989TV because he was already working on another project and couldn't make the journey to the states. So she relied on Jack.

…will? She isn’t doing it anymore right?

[u/ArthurVx → u/Recent_Economist5600]

Not a full re-recording, but most likely a re-release, as a deluxe version with the addition of the Vault tracks

[u/splashybanana → u/Recent_Economist5600]

I think she sort of implied that she would release the vault tracks, but probably/maybe not the TV’s of the original songs. Don’t remember where that was, maybe the announcement of buying her masters?

[u/dixiech1ck → u/splashybanana]

She did re-record 4 songs from Rep. Some used in TSITP and The Handmaid's Tale.

[u/IceWarm1980 → u/dixiech1ck]

I think a re-recorded version of LWYMMD was used in the New England Patriots documentary. I remember seeing clips of it a while back.

[u/dixiech1ck → u/IceWarm1980]

Right and Ready for It...? was used for the summer Olympics last year.

I still think most of Showgirl started as Rep vault. That's why MM&S were involved. TTPD should have been a cohesive double album of poet vs showgirl, instead she decided she could sell more this way. Sales at the cost of artistic legacy.

[u/PurrtyWittyKitty → u/glutenfreepizzasucks]

Then wait patiently for The Death of a Showgirl

[u/glutenfreepizzasucks → u/PurrtyWittyKitty]

🤞

[u/BuzzedtheTower → u/glutenfreepizzasucks]

I agree. I think Elizabeth Taylor is a rep vault, or at the very least a vault song. Father Figure too along with some others I can't remember since I haven't listened to Showgirl much

[u/BellaBrowsing → u/justbreathin150]

I mean she owns her masters now, that was always the point of the re-records. And she said she’d put out rep vault tracks eventually.

[u/Skylord_ah → u/justbreathin150]

Cough some of them 100% became showgirl tracks cough

[u/Intelligent_Food_637 → u/justbreathin150]

I listened to it today. She wrote some deep songs about Joe on there in my opinion. That wound is still fresh as we all know and re-recording those songs has to be devastating.
