Taylor Swift's iconic anthem has been given a new lease of life with her version of Speak Now. The pop icon has been re-recording her classic albums following her ownership battle with her former manager, Scooter Braun. Fans were wondering if Better Than Revenge would be given a revamp and they weren't disappointed.
In the latest version of the song, Taylor has changed the controversial lyric 'She's better known for the things that she does on the mattress' to 'He was a moth to the flame, she was holding the matches.' This comes as no surprise considering Taylor has spoken out multiple times about her dating life being criticised in the public eye.
In an interview with Glamour in 2015, Taylor said: "I think the media has sent me a really unfair message over the past couple of years, which is that I'm not allowed to date for excitement, or fun, or new experiences or learning lessons. I'm only allowed to date if it's for a lasting, multiple-year relationship. Otherwise, I'm a 'serial dater' or 'boy crazy.' The narrative has been so wrong, every time it was the same. It's 'Taylor spotted talking to this guy, she's chasing him.' They create a beginning to the story that didn't happen most of the time, so then they have to create an ending."
Meanwhile, Taylor's eagerly-anticipated Eras tour is set to come to the UK and mainland Europe next year, with fans who signed up for the chance to buy tickets checking their emails for a unique sale code. Paramore have been announced as her support act.
It's clear that Taylor's re-released version of Speak Now is a reflection of where she is at 13 years later. With her tour coming soon, it's sure to be a success!
