Taylor Swift lands eighth UK number one album with re-recorded Red

Taylor Swift lands eighth UK number one album with re-recorded Red

By Vijay Narayan

Swift is the first and only female artist to have eight UK number one albums this century

Taylor Swift has landed her eighth straight number one album, with her re-recorded rendition of Red topping the UK chart over the weekend.

Red (Taylor's Version) is the American singer's recreation of her fourth album, which also went to number one on its original release in 2012.

It's her second re-recorded album release of 2021, following Fearless.

The BBC reports that she plans to re-record and re-release her first six albums in order to have complete control over her music.

The move follows the 2019 acquisition of her master recordings by music mogul Scooter Braun and his subsequent sale of them to an investment fund.

Red includes the hit singles We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together and I Knew You Were Trouble, with Taylor's Version adding a number of bonus tracks that didn't make it onto the original album.
