Red (Taylor's Version) is the second re-recorded album by American singer-songwriter Taylor Swift. It was released on November 12, 2021, through Republic Records, as the re-recording of Swift's fourth studio album, Red (2012), and the follow-up to her first re-recorded album Fearless (Taylor's Version). The release is part of Swift's decision to counter the purchase of the masters of her back catalog. The 30-track Red (Taylor's Version) includes the re-recorded versions of 20 songs from the deluxe edition of Red and the 2012 charity single "Ronan"; the 10-minute-long, unabridged version of "All Too Well"; Swift's own recordings of "Better Man" (2016) and "Babe" (2018), both of which she wrote but had given off to other performers; and six previously unreleased "From the Vault" tracks
The album was met with widespread acclaim. At Metacritic, which assigns a normalized rating out of 100 to reviews from professional publications, the album received a weighted mean score of 91 based on 16 reviews, indicating "universal acclaim"; it is Swift's highest-rated project on the site and the second-highest rated album of 2021. Music critics described it as a classic pop record incorporating country, rock and electronic flairs, with themes exploring various dynamics of love, life, loss and heartache. Swift's vocals, the enhanced production quality, and the new tracks were frequent points of compliment in the reviews. Red (Taylor's Version) broke a string of commercial records, including the biggest vinyl sales week in MRC Data history and the Spotify record for the most single-day streams for an album by a female artist. It topped the charts in Argentina, Australia, Canada, Ireland, New Zealand, Norway, Scotland, and the United Kingdom. In the United States, it was Swift's fourth number-one on the Billboard 200 chart in less than 16 months, making her the fastest artist to collect four number-one albums.

My Top 3 is basically tied, and I like the whole group! Chuckling at "Run" failing to crack even 20 points, though.
