The multi-Grammy Award winner said it felt nostalgic to revisit the songs she wrote while on the cusp of womanhood and how “proud” she is to share songs that didn’t make the original album.
‘It’s here. It’s yours, it’s mine, it’s ours. “It’s an album I wrote on my own, about the whims, fantasies, heartaches, dramas and tragedies I experienced as a young woman between the ages of 18 and 20,” Swift wrote on Instagram.
