Taylor Swift has been revisiting some of her old music. This time, I am taking a look at “Babe” which was originally released on her RED album and now is part of the “Taylor’s Version” of releases. Yes, I know I’m late to the game.
The song is written by Swift and Train bandmember Patrick Monahan. It was originally a collaboration between her and the country music band Sugarland when the original version was released in 2018. Swift even starred in a music video of the song.
For her RED (Taylor’s Version) album release, this version of “Babe” removes all country music elements and turns it into what Swift does best: a pop song. Though I would categorize it more as “contemporary pop” since it is slow-moving and not snappy.
While I am not prepared to say it better than the original version, it definitely has its own identity. Taylor Swift’s passion and love for music comes out a bit clearer. Her lyrics are pretty standard for one of her songs, but I do like how her performance brings the song back to its roots. I have a feeling we will be seeing more of these “Taylor’s version” of songs, even more than has been released. She knows her fans and they know her.
