TAYLOR SWIFT: Speaks Now
Taylor Swift's upcoming album, Speak Now, is, as she puts it, a "collection of confessions." She tells Entertainment Weekly, "I think that whatever I go through in life will be directly reflected in my music. If I have a bunch of different experiences with a bunch of different people and some of them are good and some of them are bad and some of them are confusing, you have an album like this." Speak Now comes out on October 25th.

Toby says that the video's stylist had dressed some of the cast for roles in the mini-movie, but one look around at the residence watching the shoot inspired him to incorporate them into it as well.
