On Friday (June 9) at midnight, Taylor Swift’s entire discography returned to Spotify, three years after she removed her catalog from the service. Though the artist once spoke out against streaming services, all of her music, from her self-titled debut to 2014’s 1989, is now available for listening on one of the biggest streaming platforms.
Not surprisingly, Twitter users had thoughts about the pop star’s latest move. While a number of Swifties were excited they could access their favorite artist’s music from another platform, some speculated that the surprise news might have been timed to coincide with the release of Witness, the latest from Swift’s long-time supposed rival Katy Perry, which also dropped at midnight.
See what the Twitter community had to say about Swift’s long-awaited Spotify return below:
