The 2010 album is memorable for including many of Swift’s heartbreaking favorites, including “Dear John,” “Last Kiss,” and “Back To December.”

Even the most casual fans of Swift are likely aware the “Lavender Haze” singer adores surprising her fans!

Swifties on social media were thrilled to learn Swift and her Taylor Nation team were planning a surprise for “Speak Now” devotees; the album will receive the special edition treatment in collaboration with Target!

“There’s a different reason I’m excited about this part of the set tonight. Because I’ve been planning something for a while,” she told the crowd. “You know how I love to plan things and how I love to surprise you with the things I plan. It’s my love language with you- I plot, I scheme, I plan, and I get to tell you about it. If you would direct your attention to the back big screen…” Swift instructed. (per People)

Swifties then found out they would be able to add “Speak Now (Taylor’s Version)” to their collection on July 7th (the “Mine” singer cheekily acknowledged the intentional reference to the album track “Last Kiss” in her announcement!)

“the violet feels like dear John, last kiss, back to December, the sadder singles, and the lilac feels like mine, enchanted, and long life,” a Swiftie observed.

The exclusive vinyl release comes shortly after speculation of Swift’s personal life dominated social media. She has been linked to the 1975’s Matty Healy for a few weeks.

They were recently spotted engaging in some PDA; If reports are accurate, Healy would be Swift’s first relationship since breaking up with her partner of six years, actor Joe Alwyn. (via The Blast)
