Yes, there’s now a short film accompanying “All Too Well.” premiering tomorrow afternoon. Yes, there’s now a ten-minute version of the song thanks to Taylor Swift constantly listening to what her fans love best about her music and knowing how to double down on it. For Red (Taylor’s Version), Ms. Swift made it clear from the start that she was going to do more than just re-release a re-recorded version of her fan-favorite record, which is considered by many to be one of the greatest albums of the last few decades. Instead of simply re-doing what she’d done before, Taylor has been adding new songs, like her new collaboration with Phoebe Bridgers on “Nothing New,” and a whole host of gems unearthed from the vault.
Just like when she re-recorded and re-released Fearless, she’s also done a careful job of restoring the album that was there before, but this is still Red like you’ve never heard it. And the fans? Well, they’re kind of losing their minds. Since the song is long-rumored to be about Taylor’s relationship with Jake Gyllenhaal, there’s lots of reactions on that front, too. For anyone who has spent the last decade and a half revering one of the greatest songwriters on the planet, tonight is nothing short of a holiday. Check out some of the most excited reactions to the new album — and the extended version of “All Too Well” in particular — below.
me simultaneously explaining the reasoning for and importance of the re-recordings, All Too Well + the new 10-minute version, why we hate Jake Gyllenhaal, and the entire album Red to my boyfriend after he casually asked if I was excited for Taylor Swift on SNL next weekend pic.twitter.com/F7BeyG29FF

will be requiring 2 to 5 business decades to process 10-minute “all too well” due to intellectual and emotional capacity limitations. thank you for your patience #RedTaylorsVersion

Cool thing about 10 minute version of All Too Well is that when you’re feeling maybe as sad as you can possibly ever imagine, you realize you’re only 4 minutes in. #RedTaylorsVersion
