Selena Gomez adopts the style of her close friend Taylor Swift in preparation to re-record one of her beloved old songs
Pop sensation Selena Gomez has revealed her intention to re-record her 2011 hit "Who Says," originally released with her band Selena Gomez & the Scene. The song, which remains one of her favorites from that era, holds a special place in her heart and is considered the most powerful moment for her during live performances.
During a recent podcast interview, Gomez shared that she would need to lower the pitch by an octave since she sounds younger on the original recording. She expressed a firm intention to "recut" and update the song, showing her commitment to delivering a fresh take on the empowering anthem.
Gomez's friendship with Taylor Swift, which dates back to 2008, also played a significant role in the creation and meaning of "Who Says." The two singers became close friends after bonding over their breakups with their famous ex-boyfriends when they were teenagers. Gomez mentioned that the song still resonates with her, reminding her of the strength and resilience they found in each other during those challenging times.
It's worth noting that Selena Gomez has not gone on tour since 2016. However, she stated that the only reason she would ever do a tour again is to perform "Who Says." This rekindled interest in the song ties into her broader passion for music, even after focusing on acting and other projects.
In the podcast interview, Gomez also shared some insights into her friendship with Swift, including hearing one of Swift's biggest songs before it was released, highlighting the closeness of their relationship. However, details about their specific backstory were not deeply discussed in the excerpts available.
Selena Gomez made three studio albums with her band Selena Gomez & The Scene before going solo. Her friendship with Swift and the powerful message of "Who Says" have undoubtedly left a lasting impact on her music, making the re-recording of this hit song an exciting development for fans of the pop star.
