La estrella estadounidense Taylor Swift presenta el videoclip de ‘I Bet You Think About Me (Taylor’s Version)’, un tema incluido en “Red (Taylor’s Version)”, la nueva versión regrabada de su cuarto álbum.
‘I Bet You Think About Me (Taylor’s Version)’ es una de las canciones inéditas procedentes de las sesiones de grabación de “Red” (2012) que no se llegó a incluir en la edición original y ha sido producida por Aaron Dessner y compuesta por Lori McKenna, contando para ambas labores con Taylor Swift. Un tema con la colaboración en los coros del cantante de música country Chris Stapleton y cuyo video musical (que lleva acumulado ya casi 18 millones de visualizaciones) ha sido dirigido por la actriz-modelo Blake Lively, siendo protagonizado por Taylor y el actor Miles Teller.
“Red (Taylor’s Version)” es la revisión por Taylor Swift de su cuarto álbum, publicado originalmente en 2012. Fue el primero en adentrarse en el pop y también el primero de éxito mundial, sobre todo a raíz de los singles ‘We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together’ o ‘I Knew You Were Trouble’. Contiene un total de 30 canciones, incluyendo todas las del álbum original en nuevas versiones regrabadas (entre ellas, la versión de 10 minutos de ‘All Too Well’ que su discográfica rechazó incluir en la primera edición y presentó recientemente con un cortometraje) junto a nueve canciones nunca editadas y cuenta también con varios artistas invitados como Phoebe Bridgers, Ed Sheeran, Gary Lightbody y Chris Stapleton.
Con este nuevo lanzamiento, Taylor Swift sigue a un ritmo imparable de trabajo ya que además de publicar durante 2020 dos albums de estudio con ventas millonarias, “Folklore” y “Evermore”, ha estado preparando nuevas versiones de sus seis primeros álbumes, de los que poseía la propiedad de las letras que compuso, pero no del audio correspondiente. La artista arrancó esta iniciativa en abril con la publicación de su segundo álbum, “Fearless (Taylor’s version)”. Con todo ello, Taylor Swift lleva casi 50 millones vendidas en álbumes tan solo en EE.UU..
Letra ‘I Bet You Think About Me (Taylor’s Version)’ de Taylor Swift
[Verse 1: Taylor Swift]
3 AM and I’m still awake, I’ll bet you’re just fine
Fast asleep in your city that’s better than mine
And the girl in your bed has a fine pedigree
And I’ll bet your friends tell you she’s better than me, huh
[Verse 2: Taylor Swift]
Well, I tried to fit in with your upper-crust circles
Yeah, they let me sit in back when we were in love
Oh, they sit around talkin’ about the meaning of life
And the book that just saved ‘em that I hadn’t heard of
[Chorus: Taylor Swift & Chris Stapleton, Taylor Swift]
But now that we’re done and it’s over
I bet you couldn’t believe
When you realized I’m harder to forget than I was to leave
And I bet you think about me
[Verse 3: Taylor Swift]
You grew up in a silver-spoon gated community
Glamorous, shiny, bright Beverly Hills
I was raised on a farm, no, it wasn’t a mansion
Just livin’ room dancin’ and kitchen table bills
[Verse 4: Taylor Swift & Chris Stapleton]
But you know what they say, you can’t help who you fall for
And you and I fell like an early spring snow
But reality crept in, you said we’re too different
You laughed at my dreams, rolled your eyes at my jokes
[Chorus: Taylor Swift & Chris Stapleton, Taylor Swift]
Mr. Superior Thinkin’
Do you have all the space that you need?
I don’t have to be your shrink to know that you’ll never be happy
And I bet you think about me
[Post-Chorus: Taylor Swift, Taylor Swift & Chris Stapleton]
I bet you think about me, yes
*I bet you think about me
[Bridge: Taylor Swift & Chris Stapleton, Taylor Swift]
Oh, block it all out
The voices so loud, sayin’
«Why did you let her go?»
Does it make you feel sad
That the love that you’re lookin’ for
Is the love that you had?
[Verse 5: Taylor Swift]
Now you’re out in the world, searchin’ for your soul
Scared not to be hip, scared to get old
Chasing make-believe status, last time you felt free
Was when none of that shit mattered ‘cause you were with me
[Chorus: Taylor Swift & Chris Stapleton, Taylor Swift]
But now that we’re done and it’s over
I bet it’s hard to believe
But it turned out I’m harder to forget than I was to leave
And, yeah, I bet you think about me
[Post-Chorus: Taylor Swift, Taylor Swift & Chris Stapleton]
I bet you think about me, yes
*I bet you think about me
[Outro: Taylor Swift, Taylor Swift & Chris Stapleton]
I bet you think about me when you’re out
At your cool indie music concerts every week
I bet you think about me in your house
With your organic shoes and your million-dollar couch
I bet you think about me when you say
«Oh my god, she’s insane, she wrote a song about me»
I bet you think about me
