Taylor Swift is stripping things back. Last night, the pop star unveiled “The Fate of Ophelia (Alone in My Tower Acoustic Version),” an acoustic guitar-led rendition of opening track from her latest album The Life of a Showgirl .
Swift also released the version as a limited edition single CD, which features the acoustic take and an instrumental acoustic rendition of the track. The CD is available until Oct. 31 at 4 p.m. ET.
Swift released The Life of a Showgirl , her 12th studio album, earlier this month. She didn’t share any singles ahead of the LP, but did drop a music video for “The Fate of Ophelia” following its arrival. The video first premiered as part of The Official Release Party of a Showgirl , Swift’s film that screened in theaters from Oct. 3 to Oct. 5.
