Taylor Swift Subtly Changes Lyrics to 2 Reputation Songs
Taylor Swift revised the lyrics to her songs "I Did Something Bad" and "Delicate" after her album Reputation, along with her five previous albums, were released on Apple Music with Dolby Atmos.
Taylor Swift was delicate with the latest updates to her past albums.
Indeed, the Grammy winner made some subtle revisions to her lyrics in "I Did Something Bad" and "Delicate," which were included in the version of Reputation with Dolby Atmos sound released by Apple Music on Dec. 12.
In the first song the third track on her 2017 project Taylor previously sang, "But if he drops my name, then I owe him nothin' / And if he spends my change, then he had it comin.'"
Her new "I Did Something Bad" pre-chorus goes, "If a man talks s--t, then I owe him nothin' / And if he calls me a b---h then he had it comin.'"
Meanwhile, her second adjusted track—the fifth on the album—has a smaller change to the lyrics. In "Delicate," the 35-year-old used to sing, "Dark jeans and your Nikes, look at you / Oh, damn, never seen that color blue."
In the recent update, she sang, "Dark jeans and your Nikes, look at you / Goddamn, never seen that color blue."
Along with the minor adjustments to Taylor's songs, Dolby Atmos on the music streaming platform is meant to create a three-dimensional sound experience as if music were playing all around the listener, not just on the left and right.
While fans can be enchanted by the "Bejeweled" singer's sixth album, Taylor Swift, Fearless, Speak Now, Red and 1989 are also available in the immersive experience.
Taylor's latest revisions come six months after achieving her wildest dreams: obtaining the master recordings for her first six albums following a years-long battle.
"All of the music I've ever made… now belongs… to me," she announced in a May letter on her website. "And all my music videos. All the concert films. The album art and photography. The unreleased songs. The memories. The magic. The madness. Every single era. My entire life's work."
