Taylor Swift has given fans another taste of the “new “version of her sophomore album ‘Fearless’ ahead of its release on April 9.

As reported, the Pop force is re-vocalizing much of her back-catalog after her original masters were sold by her former label – the fall-out of which we have covered in earnest on That Grape Juice. 

Per Swift’s own words, the venture is being embarked on as a means of snatching back agency over her music.

Having shared droplets, the latest to be poured out is “From The Vault” cut ‘Mr. Perfectly Fine.’

She sings on the chorus:

“Hello, Mr. Perfectly fine / How’s your heart after breaking mine?/Mr. always at the right place at the right time, baby/Hello, Mr. casually cruel/Mr. everything revolves around you/I’ve been Miss misery since your goodbye/And you’re Mr. perfectly fine.”
