Case Still Open

reputation Not yet released
reputation (Taylor's Version)

As of her own account, re-recording hadn't progressed past a quarter of the album — she's said the original felt too tied to that specific period to redo. No release date announced; she's suggested vault tracks could surface on their own timeline.

Debut Recorded, unreleased
Taylor Swift (Taylor's Version)

Fully re-recorded — she's said she loves how it sounds — but still unreleased with no announced date. Framed as a celebration to save for the right moment rather than a deadline.
