Sometimes it feels like everything has changed over the last few years, but one thing has stayed the same—Taylor Swift and Ed Sheeran's dedicated friendship.
On Monday (August 24), Sheeran took to Instagram to show support for his longtime bestie after she announced the vinyl for Red (Taylor's Version) is now available for pre-sale. He encouraged his fans to pre-order the rerecorded album by sharing a snippet of the updated version of the duo's 'Everything Has Changed' duet. In the clip, Sheeran is in the recording booth taking another stab at his verse nearly ten years after he first recorded the song.
"Here’s a video of me rerecording my bit for a song you might know," Sheeran captioned the video. "There’s also a brand new song me and Taylor wrote the first day we met called ‘Run’ that’s out with the new version of the record, November 19th. Enjoy guys! Was so fun reliving all of this."
Swift, unsurprisingly, popped up in the comments. "Get you a friend who tells ppl to RUN over to the site and pre-order that red vinyl," she wrote, adding multiple kissy-face emojis.
Swift announced Red would be the next album she rerecorded earlier this year. The revamped album will feature a whopping 30 tracks, including her latest collaboration with Sheeran and a 10-minute version of her fan-favorite song 'All Too Well.'
“I’ve always said that the world is a different place for the heartbroken. It moves on a different axis, at a different speed. Time skips backward and forwards fleetingly," Swift said of the album. "The heartbroken might go through thousands of micro-emotions a day trying to figure out how to get through it without picking up the phone to hear that old familiar voice."
“In the land of heartbreak, moments of strength, independence, and devil-may-care rebellion are intricately woven together with grief, paralyzing vulnerability, and hopelessness," she continued. "Imagining your future might always take you on a detour back to the past. And this is all to say, that the next album I’ll be releasing is my version of Red.”
Red (Taylor's Version) drops on November 19. Are you excited to hear 'Run' for the first time?
