A re-recorded version, "Everything Has Changed (Taylor's Version)", was released as part of Swift's re-recorded album Red (Taylor's Version) on November 12, 2021.

Background and composition

Swift released her third studio album, Speak Now, in October 2010. She wrote the album by herself and co-produced it with Nathan Chapman. Speak Now was similar to Swift's previous album, Fearless (2008), in its country pop production style. On her fourth studio album, Red (2012), Swift wanted to experiment with other musical styles. To this end, she approached different producers other than Chapman, beyond her career base in Nashville, Tennessee.

Swift wrote "Everything Has Changed" with Sheeran on a trampoline in Swift's backyard. It was produced by Butch Walker, a prominent contemporary hip hop producer.Шаблон:Sfn Swift initially worked with Walker and Sheeran on separate songs, but brought "Everything Has Changed" to Walker because she "knew he would approach it from an organic place, which is where [Sheeran] comes from". She chose Walker as a new collaborator on Red because she admired his "emotionally charged" production.

"Everything Has Changed" is a midtempo ballad driven by guitar.Шаблон:Sfn Critics described it as a folk-pop song. The track extensively uses syncopation at the sixteenth-note level, which musicologist James E. Perone deemed a trademark style of Swift's music and reminiscent of her self-titled debut album (2006).Шаблон:Sfn Perone commented that "Everything Has Changed" incorporates hip-hop influences with the deep bass drum beats in its production.Шаблон:Sfn Lyrically, the song is about two new lovers wanting to get to know each other better. Both Swift and Sheeran provide lead vocals, alternating between the verses.Шаблон:Sfn

Critical reception

Some critics praised Ed Sheeran's vocals and performance.

"Everything Has Changed" received mixed reviews from music critics. Perone gave the song a positive review, calling it a pleasant track that "should not be overlooked".Шаблон:Sfn Mesfin Fekadu of the Associated Press considered "Everything Has Changed" a highlight on Red, praising Swift and Sheeran's falsetto vocals. In the Los Angeles Times, Randall Roberts called it a "powerful collaboration" and picked it as one of the album's "well-constructed pop songs Taylor-made for bedroom duets". Phil Gallo from Billboard considered the song "Swift at her most plaintive". Another Billboard article reviewing Red gave the song a mixed review, criticizing the lyrics as clichéd but complimenting Sheeran's harmony vocals.

Jon Caramanica from The New York Times considered Swift's songwriting on "Everything Has Changed" not as strong as on her past songs, but still maintained "her ear for the awkward and tentative rhythms of romantic bonding". Robert Cospey of Digital Spy gave the song a three stars out of five rating, praising the song's musical style as "cutesy" but felt that "their exchanges leave us with a warm and fuzzy feeling that is all too rare these days". Sian Rowe, a writer from NME was upright critical, deeming it inferior to respective singer-songwriters' material and "disappointing in every way". Bernard Perusse from the Edmonton Journal considered it a weak song. Tony Clayton-Lea from The Irish Times deemed the track Swift's "desperate attempt" to reach out to new audiences. Also from The Irish Times, Eoin Butler gave the single a two-out-of-five rating, calling it a "typically slushy ballad".

Music video

A music video for "Everything Has Changed" was released on Swift's Vevo channel on YouTube on June 6, 2013. It was directed by Philip Andelman and filmed in Oak Park, California at Medea Creek Middle School and San Antonio, Texas. The video begins with two children who initially appear to be Swift and Sheeran when they were much younger, meeting each other on a bus to elementary school. Throughout the video, the two children engage in many activities at school together, including painting their faces with crayons, pretending to be a princess and knight, and dancing with each other in the empty school gym. At the end, Swift and Sheeran appear and are revealed to actually be the parents of their child counterparts, arriving at the school to pick them up and take them back to their respective homes.

Jason Lipshutz from Billboard labelled the video as "impossibly adorable", while Ray Rahman from Entertainment Weekly compared the video's synopsis to Forrest Gump, but "much more gentle than that". The two actors who starred in the "Everything Has Changed" video appeared together again in the music video of "The Joker and the Queen" (2022), a song by Sheeran featuring Swift. To this extent, some media publications deemed "The Joker and the Queen" a sequel to the "Everything Has Changed" video.
