It took Kanye West long enough to give Taylor Swift the musical apology many say he's owed her for a long time. In fact, it took him almost a year. But finally, the apology has arrived in the form of a song called "Devil in a New Dress."

Surprisingly, he actually sounds remorseful. Good to know that Kanye can actually pretend he has feelings some days.

He even tweeted this morning, "I wrote a song for Taylor Swift that's so beautiful and I want her to have it. If she won't take it then I'll perform it for her." Game on, Kanye.
