Taylor took to social media to announce the release of her re-recording and also to give her fans an exclusive look at the back cover.

In the post the 33-year-old said: “I’m VERY excited to show you the back cover of Speak Now (my version) including the vault tracks and collaborations with Hayley Williams from @paramore and @falloutboy.”

Referring to the entirely self written album she continued on saying: “Since Speak Now was all about my songwriting, I decided to go to the artists who I feel influenced me most powerfully as a lyricist at that time and ask them to sing on the album.”

Finally she revealed when we could expect to hear the album saying: “They’re so cool and generous for agreeing to support my version of Speak Now. I recorded this album when I was 32 (and still growing up, now) and can’t wait to unveil it all to you on July 7th.”

The iconic singer previously announced during the Nashville show on her tour that she would be releasing Speak Now (Taylor’s Version) on July 7th.

She said: “I first made Speak Now, completely self-written, between the ages of 18 and 20. The songs that came from this time in my life were marked by their brutal honesty, unfiltered diaristic confessions and wild wistfulness.”

Revealing her love for this particular album she said: “I love this album because it tells a tale of growing up, flailing, flying and crashing … and living to speak about it. With six extra songs I’ve sprung loose from the vault, I absolutely cannot wait to celebrate Speak Now (Taylor’s Version) with you on July 7th”.

‘Long Live’ Miss Taylor Alison Swift!
