The 63-year-old singer was seemingly touched by Swift's words and wrote back, \"Thank You, for Your *Fire & Support!! It Inspires us all, to move Mountains.\"

Swift's music catalogue was sold to Scooter Braun in 2019 when the mega producer acquired her old label, Big Machine Records. A year later, it was revealed that Shamrock Capital purchased her masters from Braun for $300 million.

While she works on acquiring the master of every single track from her 2006 debut album to 2017's \"Reputation,\" Swift is currently rerecording her old hits. She's so far released her version of \"Fearless\" and will release \"Red (Taylor's Version)\" on Nov. 19.
