| - %22State of Grace%22 is a song by American singer-songwriter Taylor Swift from her fourth studio album Red (2012). It was released to the iTunes Store on October 16, 2012, in the United States by Big Machine Records as the fourth and final promotional single from the album. It was the only promotional single from the album that was not re-issued as an official single, as %22Begin Again%22, %22Red%22, and %22I Knew You Were Trouble%22, were all later re-issued as official singles. The song was written by Swift and produced by Nathan Chapman and Swift. Musically, the song is a departure from Swift's typical country pop, using influences of alternative rock while being compared to bands such as U2, Muse and The Cranberries. The song has received acclaim from music critics, who have praised its broader sound in comparison with Swift's previous material.
