She even noted that she hasn\u2019t taken any meetings about a&nbsp;<em>Lover&nbsp;<\/em>tour yet. \u201cI was so full-on planning this album release and directing the videos and putting all these different clues in these videos and trying to make this album release experience the most fun one for my fans, that I didn\u2019t wanna plan what we\u2019re gonna do in terms of live and I don\u2019t want to do the same thing every time because I don\u2019t want my life to feel like I\u2019m on a treadmill,\u201d she told Seacrest.<\/p>\n<p>While Swift promised a tour in the future, she is not sure when or how it will manifest. She has not booked any stadiums, something that needs to be done at least a year in advance, and is not sure she wants to play stadiums for this more intimate, vulnerable collection of songs. \u201cStadiums are fun,\u201d she began. \u201cStadiums are amazing \u2014 I love stadiums, I just don\u2019t know if we\u2019re going to do the same thing as we did last time.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>As opposed to the more \u201cexternal\u201d&nbsp;<em>Reputation<\/em>, Swift wants to capture the smaller sound of <em>Lover<\/em>. \u201cMy goal for whatever live setting that we decide to do things in, is gonna be to try to make it feel smaller like a living room.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Swift also discussed her <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rollingstone.com\/music\/music-news\/can-taylor-swift-re-record-her-old-albums-should-she-875296\/\">plans to re-record her first six albums<\/a>, revealing that her fans\u2019 requests are giving her some <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rollingstone.com\/music\/music-features\/heres-how-taylor-swift-should-re-record-her-first-six-albums-874824\/\">early ideas<\/a>. \u201cI\u2019m going to be listening to what they are saying,\u201d she said. \u201cI think they want me to kind of stick to the original production a bit like make them pretty close. I don\u2019t think they\u2019d want to hear like \u2018Tear Drops on My Guitar\u2019 as a pop version. The best part is, contractually, I can make them nearly identical to what they were originally which is great.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Swift will begin to re-record her first six albums, the masters of which are currently owned by Big Machine Label Group and Scooter Braun\u2019s Ithaca Holdings, after November 2020.
