 Taylor Swift has finished re-recording Fearless as part of her ongoing effort to re-record her first six albums after the master recordings were sold by her former record label.

泰勒·斯威夫特已经完成了《Fearless 无畏》的重录工作，这是她在前唱片公司卖掉其大师级音源后首次重录六张专辑的部分工作。

The singer announced on Good Morning America on Thursday that her 2008 album is the first in a series of full-album remakes she vowed to create after failing to acquire her master recordings, which were initially bought by Scooter Braun, sparking a bitter row between the music icon and the mogul.

泰勒在周四的早安美国上宣布,她2008年专辑是一系列专辑中首先被重录的，在争夺自己音源母带失败后，她发誓要重录音源。这些音源最初被Scooter Braun买断。引发音乐标志性人物（泰勒）和商业大亨（ Scooter Braun）之间的激烈争吵。

Scooter Braun企业家和娱乐产业经理人，是许多娱乐公司、唱片公司的老总，经手过的艺人包括 Justin Bieber，Ariana Grande，Carly Rae Jepsen，Hilary Duff，Demi Lovato，Tori Kelly等人。2019年6月30日，Braun通过他旗下的传媒控股公司Ithaca Holdings，用3亿美金购买了Big Machine Label Group，这次收购让Braun拥有了Taylor在2018年离开大机器前6张专辑全部录音母带的所有权。对此Taylor Swift在网络表示抗议。

"I have now finished re-recording all of Fearless which will be coming out soon," Taylor said on GMA. "My version of Fearless will have 26 songs on it, because I've decided to add songs from the vault, which are songs that almost made the Fearless album, but I've now gone back and recorded those so that everyone will be able to hear not only songs that made the album but the songs that almost made it. The full picture."

泰勒对早安美国说道“我已经完成了对专辑《无畏》所有的重录工作，并将很快发行。我的版本将包括26首歌，因为我决定从曲库中给专辑加歌，这些歌基本都是为专辑《无畏》打造的，现在我回去重录这些歌曲，这样所有人不仅可以听到专辑中的歌曲还有那些未进专辑的备选歌曲。这张专辑的全貌。”

As well as appearing on GMA, the singer also updated fans about the new release on her social media.

除了在GMA（早安美国）上亮相，这位歌手还在社交媒体上向粉丝们更新了新专辑的消息。

"Artists should own their own work for so many reasons, but the most screamingly obvious one is that the artist is the only one who really knows that body of work," she wrote. "For example, only I know which songs I wrote that almost made the Fearless album. Songs I absolutely adored, but were held back for different reasons (don't want too many breakup songs, don't want too many down tempo songs, can't fit that many songs on a physical CD).

“出于很多原因，创作人都应该拥有自己的作品。但最明显的一个原因是，创作人是唯一真正了解这类作品的人，”她写道。“例如，只有我知道我写了哪些歌是为《无畏》专辑打造。我非常喜欢的歌曲，但因为各种原因被保留了下来(不想要太多分手歌曲，不想要太多慢节奏歌曲，不能在一张实体CD上放那么多歌曲)。

"I've decided I want you to have the whole story, see the entire vivid picture, and let you into the entire dreamscape that is my 'Fearless' album. That's why I've chosen to include 6 never before released songs on my version of this album, written when I was between the ages of 16 and 18. These were the ones it killed me to leave behind."

“我决定想让大家了解整个故事，看到整个生动的场景，让你们进入我‘无畏’专辑的整个梦境。”这也是为什么我选择了6首之前从未发行过的歌曲，这些歌曲是我16岁到18岁创作的。这些歌曲如果不公布的话，我会觉得非常遗憾。”

Although Taylor didn't share a release date for the project, fans quickly picked up on the fact that capitalised letters in her social media message spell out "APRIL NINTH".

Fearless won the singer her first Grammy Award for Album of a Year, a feat she later repeated with 1989. Pop Sugar

虽然泰勒未公布这张专辑的发行日期，但粉丝们很快就注意到她在社交媒体上发的信息中大写的字母拼成了“4月9日”。《无所畏惧》专辑为泰勒带来了首座格莱美年度专辑称号，这一成绩她的专辑《1989》又获得了一次。《Pop Suger》
