Less than a week after Taylor Swift's highly-anticipated release of "Speak Now (Taylor's Version)," 'Swifties' can now enjoy even more magic from the "Speak Now" era!
The extensive "Speak Now (Taylor's Version)" features never-before-released 'From The Vault' tracks and collaborations with Paramore's Hayley Williams and Fall Out Boy.
The "Last Kiss" singer shared on her Instagram Story on Thursday that two more live tracks from recent 'Eras Tour' performances are now available as part of the "Speak Now (Taylor's Version) Deluxe Digital" album exclusively available in Swift's official store.
These two live nuggets are far from the first surprise releases Swift has ever dropped on Swifties; The Blast shared the news of the limited heart-shaped vinyl edition of "Lover: Live From Paris" earlier this year. More recently, Swift wowed fans with the news of an expanded "Midnights" release.
The album featured a new version of the Lana Del Rey collab "Snow On The Beach" featuring more of her vocals, and a "Karma" remix featuring Ice Spice.

Swift penned a letter to her Instagram followers about the indescribable feeling of having "Speak Now" being "returned to its mother," as she joked in another reel.
The "Story Of Us" singer wrote, "It’s here. It’s yours, it’s mine, it’s ours. It’s an album I wrote alone about the whims, fantasies, heartaches, dramas and tragedies I lived out as a young woman between 18 and 20. I remember making tracklist after tracklist, obsessing over the right way to tell the story. I had to be ruthless with my choices, and I left behind some songs I am still unfailingly proud of now. Therefore, you have 6 From The Vault tracks! I recorded this album when I was 32 (and still growing up, now) and the memories it brought back filled me with nostalgia and appreciation. For life, for you, for the fact that I get to reclaim my work. Thank you a million times, for the memories that break our fall. 💥🐉🏰 Speak Now (MY VERSION!) is out now."

The two tracks will be available "while supplies last," according to Swift's official store!
