US singer Taylor Swift delighted music lovers as she dropped a new version of her hit song ‘Wildest Dreams’.
Swift sent fans wild with her surprise release, which came after the original version had gone viral on TikTok. The music sensation tweeted, “Hi! Saw you guys got “Wildest Dreams” trending on TikTok, thought you should have my version.”
The songstress has been re-recording all of her old music following the controversial sale of her master recordings to Justin Bieber’s manager, Scooter Braun, who later sold them to Shamrock Holdings.
Taylor Swift’s first re-recorded album, Fearless (Taylor’s Version), was released in April with a number of added bonus tracks.
The impressive early number for “Wildest Dream (Taylor’s Version)” easily surpassed the previous records for the most listens to the original version of the song on Spotify in a single day, which had been set and reset just this week.
On Wednesday, the Big Machine-owned recording from 2014 dramatically spiked as the song racked up 735,000 plays. On Thursday, it peaked further still, at 750,000. But these numbers were no match for the thrill of Swifties getting a fresh version and quickly establishing new margins.
