Ugh, I can't picture that working at all. At best, I think it'd probably be an unnecessary change that doesn't add or subtract anything meaningful from the song. At worst, it'll completely kill it.

I'm kind of surprised at the single choice, tbh. Wildest Dreams is not one of the songs that I see getting tossed around a lot in conversation about 1989 or Taylor Swift in general. It's also one of the weaker songs on the album, if you ask me.

And, on the subject of Out of the Woods, I think she may be waiting to release that as a "final hurrah" for the album. It seems to be a fan favorite and is doing quite well for itself despite not having a video. I mean, tbh, that's probably what I'd do in her shoes. Draw out the hype for 1989 as long as possible, then release a single/video version of one of the most popular songs and drop an announcement for the next album alongside it when it feels like things are dying down. But, I'm 99% sure that I'm not Taylor Swift, so who knows? She may just snub it completely like artists do all the time for fan favorites.

I was convinced she was gonna go with NR. It's like everyone's favourite.

And it was directed by Joseph Kahn once again (who directed the amazing Blank Space and Bad Blood videos!):

All Access have revealed that 'Wildest Dreams' is sent to US radio stations tomorrow, and that it will be a new radio remix!

QUOTE
TAYLOR SWIFT's voice was in top form and she showed her musical expertise with several solo performances including an acoustic version of "You Belong To Me", a rockin' electric guitar intro on "We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together," and a solo piano performance of her new single "Wildest Dreams" which will be delivered to radio on TUESDAY (8/25) with a new radio remix.

All Access


I love the original and I struggle to see it being improved, but I'm still very interested and hopefully it will mean more sales for the single!

It better not be a drastic change because it's stunning in its current form. I'd genuinely rather see it limp in at #24 with its original version than #1 with a tacky remix lol. Let's hope it's not that big a change.

Nooooo not a remix sad.gif It's kind of pointless if it's a subtle one like the random Everything Has Changed remix (I know that wasn't the main single version but still) but it's going to wreck if it was a rapper or a dance remix, I'm not sure what to expect.... The original is so magical but obviously I'll reserve judgement until I hear this new version.

She's trying to copy the Katy Perry 'Teenage Dream' era tbh.

I think it'll probably just be a subtle remix, like the remix Not Giving Up received for its single release. I would be intrigued in a Summertime Sadness style dance remix if that were to happen presumably with Calvin, but at the same time the original is so gorgeous that it'd be great for that to get the exposure.

I would HATE it to get a copy and paste dance instrumental sad.gif Would ruin everything that the song's about.

I wouldn't mind if it was remixed if it was executed as well as Summertime Sadness was as that just felt right for the song, it didn't feel generic or anything - it actually improved that song massively for me. Admittedly my familiarility with Wildest Dreams in comparison will make it much tougher - probably impossible - to improve but I'm not 100% against it at this point if it were to happen.

That said, if it was going to be remixed so dramatically I think they'd have made a bigger deal about it than they have.

Here is the radio remix!

Very faithful to the original, just a bit of extra production in terms of drums and synths and more power in the second and final choruses especially. It's a bit less subtle than the original so will have more impact for first time radio listeners, very good work overall!

Ahhhhh that's fine then, I'd have melted down at a washing machine breakdown dance version! It does just give it a bit more impact for radio, which is needed. I do prefer the magic and subtle mysticism of the original but that edit is fine, phew laugh.gif

Amazing wub.gif It's literally the same as the 11/10 original just with the last chorus being made even better wub.gif
