Will Taylor Swift’s ‘New Romantics’ Become A Breakout Hit From ‘1989 (Taylor’s Version)’?

Fans only need to wait about a month and a half before they get a new album from Taylor Swift. The global superstar is planning on dropping the re-recorded edition of 1989, now titled 1989 (Taylor’s Version), on October 27. As that date looms, it’s worth wondering which of the tunes from the set will become hits again, or perhaps for the first time. One track is already earning the spotlight, and it might become another major win for the singer.

Swift formally announced 1989 (Taylor’s Version) at the last stop in America (for now) on her The Eras Tour several weeks ago. She told the crowd at SoFi Stadium, and thus the rest of the world, that the re-recorded album was coming in a part of the show when she plays two tunes that aren’t normally featured in the setlist. This moment mixes things up and makes the shows interesting for Swift and the audience. She chose to reveal the upcoming set and then play a tune from the original 1989, “New Romantics.” Now, that cut may have another shot at becoming huge.
