"Enchanted" is a song written and recorded by the American singer-songwriter Taylor Swift for her third studio album, Speak Now (2010). Produced by Swift and Nathan Chapman, the song is a power ballad combining pop, rock, and country. The production incorporates gentle acoustic guitars and crescendos after each refrain, leading to dynamic electric guitars, a steady drum beat, and a vocal harmony-layered coda. In the lyrics, a narrator is infatuated with someone after meeting them for the first time, and she worries about whether the initial feeling will be reciprocated.
Critics generally praised Swift's songwriting on "Enchanted" for creating a soaring production and captivating lyrics. The track initially charted in Canada and the United States in 2010, and it additionally charted in various Asia-Pacific territories after going viral on the video-sharing app TikTok in October–November 2021. The song received certifications in Australia, New Zealand, Spain, the United Kingdom, and the United States. Swift included "Enchanted" on the set lists of the Speak Now World Tour (2011–2012), the 1989 World Tour (2015), and the Eras Tour (2023–2024).
After a 2019 dispute over the ownership of Swift's back catalog, she re-recorded the song as "Enchanted (Taylor's Version)" and released it as part of her third re-recorded album, Speak Now (Taylor's Version) (2023). Produced by Swift and Christopher Rowe, the re-recorded song peaked within the top 10 on charts in Australia, Ireland, the Philippines, and Singapore.
