That was something that I expected to be just a me thing, just a personal thing. Since I was a teenager, I wanted to own my music. The way to do it was to re-record my albums, and the way that you have embraced … that you have celebrated, that you really decided that it was your fight too and that you were 100 percent behind me … I will never stop thanking you for that. And so now, here we are on the last night of the U.S. leg of the Eras tour in the eighth month of the year on the ninth day. You might have noticed there are some new outfits in the show. There’s something that I’ve been planning for a really, really, really ridiculously, embarrassingly long time, and instead of telling you about it, I think I’ll just sort of show you,” she said, proceeding to reveal the cover artwork and the specific date of release for ” 1989 (Taylor’s Version)” on the large display screen, right before transitioning into the performance of “New Romantics,” a beloved song from the deluxe version of the album that holds a special place among her fans.
