Taylor Swift sat down with Stephen Colbert on The Late Show to discuss her most recent accomplishments, including getting engaged to Travis Kelce and reclaiming control of her music masters. When asked about what made this year good for her, Swift replied that it was the culmination of things she's always wanted but never thought would happen – like finding someone who loves her for who she is, and finally regaining ownership over her work.
Swift shared with Colbert how supportive he has been throughout her career, saying that his kind words mean a lot to her. The conversation then turned to Swift's upcoming documentary tour, The End of an Era, and concert film, The Final Show, which will be available on Disney+. When asked about how she manages her time off from touring, Swift explained that even though she doesn't want to slow down or become "chill," she can find ways to relax and enjoy her hobbies.
Swift also spoke candidly about the importance of reclaiming her music masters. She confessed that it was a difficult experience but also incredibly liberating, saying, "That's a good year... Getting engaged to the love of my life, getting all my music back, those were two things that just never could have happened."
When Colbert shared news about John Fogerty's recent success in reclaiming his Creedence Clearwater Revival masters, Swift was moved by how much it meant to him. She reflected on her own experiences and acknowledged the emotional significance of owning one's work. Swift also talked about wanting a clean separation between her personal life and professional space.
The conversation wrapped up with Swift revealing that she is working on a list of her Top Five Taylor Swift songs – a daunting task given the sheer volume of music in her discography. She joked about needing time to deliberate, stating, "This is so much pressure... I think Number One is 'All Too Well' the 10-minute version."

, Taylor's living proof that taking control of your work can be super empowering 
"
? They seem like such a great match. I'm also so glad she's taking control of her music masters, it's a huge deal for artists to be able to own their work. It makes me think about John Fogerty and how cool it must feel to get your master recordings back 
& im glad she's happy!
. It's amazing to see her talk about findin someone who loves her for who she is, you feel? 
I'm tellin' ya, it's all a bit suspicious how Taylor Swift keeps poppin' up in these big interviews. First, she's talkin' about gettin' engaged to Travis Kelce and reclaiming her music masters... it's like the universe is tryin' to send us a message 
. And what's with all this talk of Disney+? Is it just a coincidence that they're droppin' all these Taylor Swift content on their platform? I think not 
. It's like they're tryin' to control the narrative around her life. And don't even get me started on John Fogerty and his Creedence Clearwater Revival masters... it's like there's a pattern here 
.
So proud of T-Swift! It's amazing how she's taking control of her life and career. I love that she mentioned finding someone who loves her for who she is - we've all been waiting for this Taylor to settle down 
She's been through so much, but it sounds like she's finally found happiness and ownership in her work. I'm also excited about The End of an Era docu-tour - can't wait to see what she has planned 
and I love how she's trying to separate her personal life from work - we all need that self-care vibe.
I'm low-key excited for her documentary tour and concert film too - it'll be so cool to see behind-the-scenes footage! 
And okay, who wouldn't want to make a list of their top 5 songs? 
anyway, i'm def adding 'all too well' to my top 5 list too, 10 min version is LIFE.CHANGING 
. And I love how she's prioritizing her personal space – it's so important to have a separation between your private life and public persona. It's not easy being in the spotlight all the time 
). And I'm excited to see what she comes out with next – that Top Five list sounds like a tough task 
Oh my gosh, I am literally SO happy for Taylor Swift right now!!! 
It's like she's finally found that sense of control and freedom over her music that we've all been rooting for her to get back. And can you even believe how supportive Stephen Colbert has been throughout her career? 
its also cool that she's prioritizing taking time off from touring, we all need a break sometimes 
now i'm DYING to know what her top 5 songs are lol is "all too well" really number one tho 
I love how down-to-earth Taylor Swift seems to be! It's amazing that she's found someone like Travis Kelce who loves her for real. And can we talk about how brave she was in taking back control of her music masters? 
.
. Like, John Fogerty's story with Creedence Clearwater Revival is super inspiring - it just goes to show that you can take control of your legacy and create a better future for yourself 
And her music sales are insane, with over 120 million records sold worldwide. That's like, a major accomplishment for any artist. 
. I'm loving that she's prioritizing her mental health and creating a clean separation between her personal and professional life
