Another day, another Taylor Swift announcement. What do you want? The girl keeps doing stuff! Today’s news is that Tay Tay released an acoustic version of the Post Malone-featuring The Tortured Poets Department track “Fortnight,” and enlisted indie sleaze heavyweights Cults for a remix.

Listen to Taylor Swift Radio and more on the free Audacy app

Both the remix and unplugged updates have been bundled with the original version and released as a trio on streaming platforms.

The stripped-back acoustic version of the track swaps the thudding percussion of the original with hollow piano melodies and guitar plucks, all while blending Swift and Malone’s haunting harmonies. While the Cults iteration weaves in indie vibes and some new wave nostalgia to the maudlin track.

“Honored to have been given the opportunity to remix legend @taylorswift song ‘Fortnight,'” the band shared on IG, alongside the remix artwork.

Listen to both below.
