I hope it's perfect for the soundtrack'", Swift told The Tennessean.
#Taylor swift today was a fairytale album movie
"When this movie opportunity came about, I reached back into my pocket and thought, 'I think this is perfect for the soundtrack. After being cast as Felicia Miller on Valentine's Day, Swift offered the song to the film producers for the soundtrack as she did not believe it fit on her upcoming album. Swift solely penned "Today Was Fairytale" in the summer of 2008 and stored it away for a while. Nothing made sense 'til the time I saw your face You told me I was pretty when I looked like a messįell in love when I saw you standing thereĮvery move you make everything you say is right You took me by the hand, and you picked me up at six Taylor re-recorded the song in 2020-2021 so it is now owned by her. In 2021, "Today Was A Fairytale" was included as the 20th track on Fearless (Taylor's Version). Swift promoted "Today Was a Fairytale" at several venues and included it on a revised set list for the continuation of her Fearless Tour in 2010. The song peaked at number two on the Billboard Hot 100 and therefore tied for her highest-charting song in the United States. In Canada, "Today Was a Fairytale" became Swift's first number-one song. It received generally positive reception from contemporary critics, some who deemed it the best song on the soundtrack, and enjoyed commercial success by reaching the top ten in three countries.

Musically, "Today Was a Fairytale" is pop-influenced and, lyrically, speaks of a magical date.

Swift had previously written the song and offered it to producers for the film's soundtrack. It was released on Januby Big Machine Records as a promotional single from the corresponding soundtrack for the 2010 film Valentine's Day, which she acted in. The song was written by Swift and produced by Nathan Chapman with Swift's help. " Today Was a Fairytale" is a country pop song performed by American singer-songwriter Taylor Swift.
