13 Facts you probably didn’t know about Taylor Swift & B.o.B’s Both of Us. 1. The lyrics of "Both of Us" talks about racism and bullying. 2. The Dr. Luke and Cirkut produced the track, B.o.B finds identifying with underdogs, as he rhymes about battling pain and hardships in life. 3. It was received critical acclaim, praising Swift's feature, with some calling the country rap collaboration as a sweet and melodic catchy song. 4. In the music video, Taylor wore the dog tags of Sgt. Wade Wilson, who was killed in Afghanistan. He was a huge Taylor fan; Taylor sent his family flowers after she saw a video uploaded by his friend about him. 5. There is an alternate version of this song where B.o.B sing along with Taylor in some of the lyrics of the chorus. 6. The song was leaked on April 11, 2012. 7. It was Taylor's idea to collaborate with B.o.B on this song (which she actually co-wrote). She decided to reach out to him after she visited his record label. 8. B.o.B told The Boombox that his collaboration with Taylor began with him getting a text message from someone claiming to be Taylor Swift. "I was like, 'This isn't Taylor Swift,' " he recalled. "She invited me to her show, to bring me out to her show to do 'Airplanes.' Lucky for me I'm a really trusting person so I moved forward. Usually if someone's like, 'This is Tupac,' you're gonna be like 'Whatever' [laughs]. 9. B.o.B recounted the story of the song to The Boombox: "I wasn't in Atlanta at the time so she arranged for me to come to Dallas. I remember I had a show in Alabama and they let me use her tour bus to come to her show in Dallas. When I played her ['Both of Us'] even before the first verse even dropped, she was onboard. She was like, 'I love it already.' I was like 'She'd be perfect for it.' She recorded her vocals in L.A. I recorded my vocals in Atlanta. [When I first heard the song with both our parts] it instantly felt magical]. 10. B.o.b had to re-sing some of my parts so they could really blend with Taylor [vocals]. He rewrote one of his verses as well. "It started as a blueprint and it really continued to grow into something tremendous," he said. 11. Director Jake Nava's inspiration for the visual representation of the tune was what he calls "a collage of different aspects of humanity in the Southern states, particularly around Nashville." While the footage shows scenes from a farm, a bar and home, one aspect he didn't anticipate was the bugs. 12. The song sold 143,000 copies in its first week, debuting at number 18 on the US Billboard Hot 100 and became the week's top debut. 13. It was certified PLATINUM in the US & Australia, and GOLD in New Zealand. #7YearsofBothOfUs source: Songfacts, taylor_swiftfacts on tumblr, theBoot, Wikipedia
The meaning and lyric is so strong for the nation to understand,"If one for all and all for one and maybe one day we gather the power to do it for the underdog,sincerely Us."
Somexs I forget my own story and all the family trees that came along w/ it. Other xs that's all I think about & idekw. Prob looking at how other ppl talk & live is also a reminder. I am ur plot twists, "bissshess" - that typical cl person. Don't be getting too comfortable... But Her playing with that tag necklace evokes emos too, & I'm not even always entirely sure y,.. lol. Cuz I'm getting old thinking about life's. That's y. It's not like it's my cred, I'm just the product. Anywho, I also somexs got to get out of my damn emos too.

We might not be getting a Taylor's Version of this track but we really need to manifest a live performance of this. Like seriously. I'm not joking. This is literally, genuinely one the best collab she's ever had. We really need a live performance of this one in The Eras Tour!
Taylor did perform this track on tour and she had B.O.B come out and they performed this song together. You should be able to find the video on youtube.
I used to listen to this when my girlfriend when she was pregnant with our first child we both lost our jobs, lived in a slumlords house and had no family or anybody to help now 10 years later we have 4 children are married and in a way better finacial situation in a good neighbourhood never give up
Taylor's part always made me cry, I struggled so hard to get my son and I out of a hard life when I was very young. Now he's 17 and I'm 36, I married an amazing man and we have a 3 year old girl, with 4 dogs and a beautiful house in the country. This song always reminded me to never give up back then, I knew I could make it. I ended up being strong enough to lift not one, but both of us son ❤
I am a 42 year old, African American Swiftie and I always come back to this song with a sense of awe and pride because Taylor and BoB collaborated so well on this song.❤
This. This is real rap. B.O.B is a real rapper. Rappers who talk about sex, money, and killing people and weapons are not real rappers. We are all one. We are here and B.O.B understands the real meaning of everything.
Lyrics❤️ I wish I was strong enough to lift not one but both of us Some day I will be strong enough to lift not one but both of us Ever thought about losing it When your money's all gone and you lose your whip You might lose your grip when the landlord tell ya that you're due for rent And the grass so green on the other side Make a n**** wanna run straight through the fence Open up the fridge bout twenty times But still can't find no food in it That's foolishness And sometimes I wonder, why we care so much about the way we look And the way we talk and the way we act And the clothes we bought, how much that cost? Does it even really matter? 'Cause if life is an uphill battle We all tryna climb with the same ol' ladder In the same boat, with the same ol' paddle Why so shallow? I'm just asking What's the pattern for the madness Everybody ain't a number one draft pick Most of us ain't Hollywood actors But if it's all for one, and one for all Then maybe one day, we all can ball Do it one time for the underdogs Sincerely yours, from one of y'all I wish I was strong enough to lift not one but both of us Some day I will be strong enough to lift not one but both of us I can feel your pain, I can feel your struggle You just wanna live, been everything so low That you could drown in a puddle That's why I gotta hold us up, yeah hold us up For all the times no one's ever spoke for us To every single time that they play this song You can say that that's what Bobby Ray wrote for us When the tides get too high And the sea up underneath get so deep And you feel like you're just another person Getting lost in the crowd, way up high in the nosebleed Uh, because we won't be near yet, both of us But we still stand tall with our shoulders up And even though we always against the odds These are the things that have molded us And if life hadn't chosen us Sometimes I wonder where I would've wound up 'Cause if it was up to me, I'd make a new blueprint Then build it from the ground up, hey But if it's all for one, and one for all Then maybe one day, we all can ball Do it one time for the underdogs From Bobby Ray, to all of y'all I wish I was strong enough to lift not one but both of us Some day I will be strong enough to lift not one but both of us
oh this is definitely her most underrated song. i’ve felt like it’s hard to find “Taylor Swift’s most underrated song” cause she has well over 200 songs. she has 10 albums, she has four Taylor’s version vault’s out as of right now, a couple one-off singles, a few collabs. like that’s so much music, a lot of the songs end up going under-appreciated. but at the same time, she’s the most famous person in the world and literally billions of people listen to her music so i’d say most of her songs are known, by at least a few people, just not super popular. but i just found this song and it HAS to be her most underrated.
Taylor's BEST Collabs • Both of Us • Safe and Sound ft The Civil Wars • I Don't Wanna Live Forever - Zayn Malik • Two Is Better Than One - Boys Like Girls • Thug Story ft TPain • Exile ft Bon Iver [NEW]
This gives me serious 80’s movies vibes where Taylor is the older sister who takes care of her two younger brothers because they’re parents have either left or have neglected them and she slowly falls for B.O.B who reminds her how to be happy again despite their circumstances 🥺
A man that went down the road of flat earth conspiracies, among other things doesn’t deserve flowers. He had a few decent songs in his early years, but that’s it.
Thank you Judge for that piece of verdict. However, some of us always remember the good while learning from the bad, hence I salute the man and give him the flowers. A man needs to explore every conspiracy possible to satisfy his curiosity. Shame on you for not being curious enough@@prettierjesus3119
@@prettierjesus3119 such a shame right? to even hate the artist just coz he in flat earth thing... he did deserve some flowers just think about it i almost forgot BOB did made bruno to spark .. just to listen to this one with taylor is something out of the blue like taylor featuring in a rap song?
"Sometimes I wonder why we care so much about the way we look, and the way we talk, and the way we act, and the clothes we bought, how much did that cost? Does it even really matter?" Unfortunately the answer is yeah.
....and its the people with a shallow-ish superficial way of thinking that this song was written for. if everyone could try to change to not judging people for the way we look, act, dress etc. we could make the world better!
This song got me through a lot of tough times. To whoever is reading this, you'll get through what you're dealing with your life rn, maybe not today but you will eventually. You can do it.
Every comment here is literally "am i the only one...?" No, you are not the only one who came here for Taylor No, you are not the only one who thinks B.o.B raps about real shit No, you are not the only one who came here for B.o.B No, you are not the only one who likes this song. and finally no, you are not the only one who still listens to this.

4 years ago this was my favorite song. I knew this was sung by Taylor Swift, but I never really noticed it. Now, 4 years later, I'm a huge Swiftie and I just discovered this song again. It's just so emotional and beautiful
favorite song. me and my girlfriend are on a break and I don't know if we are getting back together and I'm struggling financially right now and this song gives me hope and strength to stand tall and I say "I WILL MAKE IT!!"
+Kyle Laniel I'm 17 (SO I'm probably younger than you sigh) but eitherways, listening to music like this and focusing on yourself. Ultimately being content will be the time you'll shout: "I MADE IT" ~ You'll get there hehe
jan klasen don't judge someone by the things they do without knowing there story. You don't know me or what i struggle with or have struggled through in life. Weed isn't a drug. It's naturally grown its a herb. Its is used by doctors and has been proven tonsure cancer. Do your research before talking shit. Same thing I tell doctors and it doesn't kill braincells if you use your damn brain while high.
"And if life hadn't chosen us, sometimes I wonder where I would've wound up. Because if it was up to me, i'd make a new blueprint, being built up from the ground up." Pretty deep words.
Thank you again Jesus! And if those who knew the TRUTH, knew the TRUTH; in its EXACT DUE MOMENT, would let it come to play..Thankyou to all who still gave me their trust; when I had none. I hope to of have been the one that these did it to as one of the least.. a prophet who is alive and now lives speaking. I cannot wait to meet Jesus Christ as well as any of his faithful Apostles, disciples or from Judas is'cariot's side of brothers as well. Long as they can give me a reasonable response as to why, the good news is being delivered. I'm happy. Love you Lori Johnson from many many years ago.2023/14/04 as of April its your former student.
neither is greater than the other. this song is a great complimentary display of vocals. Taylor is light and airy, while BoB brings back the masculine feeling and edginess. It's a masterpiece tbh.
Both Of Us B.o.B I wish I was strong enough to lift not one but both of us Some day I will be strong enough to lift not one but both of us Ever thought about losing it When your money's all gone and you lose your whip You might lose your grip when the landlord tell ya that you're due for rent And the grass so green on the other side Make a n**** wanna run straight through the fence Open up the fridge bout twenty times But still can't find no food in it That's foolishness And sometimes I wonder, why we care so much about the way we look And the way we talk and the way we act And the clothes we bought, how much that cost?

one of the best (if not the best) hidden gem in taylor swift's discography. two entirely different artists and playstyle yet blended perfectly in this masterpiece
Like the idiot that I am, I just listened to this song after 2 years and instantly fell in love with it. This is the kind of collaboration that needs to take place in the music industry.
My best friend's mom passed away last Friday; I just heard about it today. She died very quickly from an aggressive form of leukemia, which, by the time that the symptoms started showing, it was already too late. Hearing this news ruined my night, considering how close I was with him and his mom; I spent a lot of my years growing up with both of them. Losing a parent sucks, no matter how old you are, and I won't even make it for the funeral because I live so far away, and I don't have a car. After spending some time in the dark, alone with my thoughts, this song sprung to mind. It lays the message bare what I wish that I could do for my dear old friend right now: become strong enough for the both of us. 😢😭😞
Ya know there are a lot of rap songs with deep meanings not all of rap songs are about money of girls u just gotta find the right songs and there rlly nice songs too
Omg my heart almost stopped for a second when Taylor started singing: it REALLY sounded like she was gonna go “I wish I could fly-y (I’d pick you up and we’d go back in time)” 😭😂🥲 I know this isn’t that song ofc, but I’ve never heard it before (I don’t think) so 😅🫠🤣
Hey don't forget the comedy Rap sketch that Taylor and T Pain did. Taylor's verse about baking cookies makes me laugh all these years later. Taylor has always been a fan of Rap music.
This is real rap,not that shit we listen today. The essence of rap music should be in the lyrics, but real deep lyrics that actually have value that can tech you something and make you think about what's truly important. Today every single song that they call rap just spins around the same shit like drugs,alcohol,money,prostitution...Litle kids grow up with that shit calling it music,calling those idiots artists,listening to it cuz they want to be excepted,and everyone else listens to it so it must be cool right? Wrong,music is a very powerful thing it can shape the character of someone,so be careful what you listen to...
Toni Zattila I suggest you listen to the white stripes. ... sometimes things really are the same. It's just styled & worded differently. It's just that egos get in the way. If everything's a game, we all get played. Sorry just facts
exactly that's what I'm saying. I see you have a Blink 182 pic, Im also more of a rock person,but I also appreciate other genres as long as it is something meaningful like this.
We better respect respective genres, there is no answer in music, in art. What would be an ideal music dude, a song giving a lesson? A song cure someone's pain? Well, there is no ideal or answer in music. when I feel depressed and wanna cry then I go listen to sad songs. When I feel tired and need refresh then I go listening hiphop or EDM music. No answer so no need to force but recommend :)
*They didn’t really promote it though!* I suspect her music label didn’t want her country fans to shy away due to structural rasism. And seeing how some spoke out when Swift a few years ago stood up against racism and homophobia, many of her right wing fans got very angry at her because they thought her previous silence had meant she had the same view on people as they did.
I don't know why UA-cam decided to recommend this song after 11 years. I forgot this collab ever existed😬 Brings back memories of me singing this song with my best friend who, i don't know where she is now. I hope she thinks of me whenever she hears this song.

It’s these memories that bring us back😢
Yes! idk why but something about this song gives me so much nostalgia

you're so right dude!
taylor co-wrote this too
+reilyn Taylor didn't co-write the song. She only sings.
(i find this in Internet. It's strage, because Taylor always sings herself songs.)
check wiki. she was listed as one of the writers too
These comments are so aids because there are so many artists that have the style of b.o.b
as a kid, i didn’t care about the lyrics ya know.. just sang my heart away. now i’m 26 with my first child and this song actually made me bawl listening to it again.

I am a 42 year old, African American Swiftie and I always come back to this song with a sense of awe and pride because Taylor and BoB collaborated so well on this song.❤
This song deserves more attention.
Everything here is perfect, Taylor's vocals, B.o.B's rap verses and the whole message of this song.
Song came out when I was 13 now I’m 21 and the lyrics hit for real now.
Hey you were Taylor’s lucky number ( 13 ) and your almost Taylor’s song! 22
Sameeee this reminds me so much old memories back then
I though this song was for broken hearted people
Same here
Same age
This song deserved a Grammy
Agree
2024 anyone?
Ya! 🤗💖
This shit hits hard in 2024
You are 4months late kiddo😢😂
Tao
❤
Never would've paired these two together, but Taylor's vocals work beautifully with B.o.B's lyrics and rapping.
This. This is real rap. B.O.B is a real rapper. Rappers who talk about sex, money, and killing people and weapons are not real rappers. We are all one. We are here and B.O.B understands the real meaning of everything.
To be fair he also has songs about just pussy
Bobby Ray is the real rapper...I miss him making songs like this :(
@@daisuki_pika7365 arenas, don't let me fall, just a sign, my personal favorites

nawfal effendi headband is one to start although to be fair it’s also about booty.
You can go from there
Taylor always looks so beautiful.

Probably, one of the most underrated songs of all times.

Lyrics❤️
I wish I was strong enough to lift not one but both of us
Some day I will be strong enough to lift not one but both of us
Ever thought about losing it
When your money's all gone and you lose your whip
You might lose your grip when the landlord tell ya that you're due for rent
And the grass so green on the other side
Make a n**** wanna run straight through the fence
Open up the fridge bout twenty times
But still can't find no food in it
That's foolishness
And sometimes I wonder, why we care so much about the way we look
And the way we talk and the way we act
And the clothes we bought, how much that cost?
Does it even really matter?
'Cause if life is an uphill battle
We all tryna climb with the same ol' ladder
In the same boat, with the same ol' paddle
Why so shallow? I'm just asking
What's the pattern for the madness
Everybody ain't a number one draft pick
Most of us ain't Hollywood actors
But if it's all for one, and one for all
Then maybe one day, we all can ball
Do it one time for the underdogs
Sincerely yours, from one of y'all
I wish I was strong enough to lift not one but both of us
Some day I will be strong enough to lift not one but both of us
I can feel your pain, I can feel your struggle
You just wanna live, been everything so low
That you could drown in a puddle
That's why I gotta hold us up, yeah hold us up
For all the times no one's ever spoke for us
To every single time that they play this song
You can say that that's what Bobby Ray wrote for us
When the tides get too high
And the sea up underneath get so deep
And you feel like you're just another person
Getting lost in the crowd, way up high in the nosebleed
Uh, because we won't be near yet, both of us
But we still stand tall with our shoulders up
And even though we always against the odds
These are the things that have molded us
And if life hadn't chosen us
Sometimes I wonder where I would've wound up
'Cause if it was up to me, I'd make a new blueprint
Then build it from the ground up, hey
But if it's all for one, and one for all
Then maybe one day, we all can ball
Do it one time for the underdogs
From Bobby Ray, to all of y'all
I wish I was strong enough to lift not one but both of us
Some day I will be strong enough to lift not one but both of us
Thank you
thankyou! looking for this
This song has gotten me through so much pain crisis and struggle I've been through in my life I'm so thankful for this song
THANKS FOR THESE BROTHER! GOD BLESS YA!

Flew under your radar
@@why9098 he didn't mean any harm or insult to Taylor. Pls reread and understand his comment well before calling him a "btch"
@@huhfudge7797 ...
oh this is definitely her most underrated song. i’ve felt like it’s hard to find “Taylor Swift’s most underrated song” cause she has well over 200 songs. she has 10 albums, she has four Taylor’s version vault’s out as of right now, a couple one-off singles, a few collabs. like that’s so much music, a lot of the songs end up going under-appreciated. but at the same time, she’s the most famous person in the world and literally billions of people listen to her music so i’d say most of her songs are known, by at least a few people, just not super popular. but i just found this song and it HAS to be her most underrated.
It isn't available on Spotify 😢 maybe that's on of the reasons
It is on Spotify under B.o.B!
SHE LOOKS LIKE AN ANGEL IN THIS MUSIC VIDEO.
Oh my God. Taylor looks so pretty 😍😍
She was born to be gorgeous
yesss 😍😍
she is incredible beautiful!
+Vaalleentina BE *Incredibly

The fact that this comment section is alive after 8+ years is incredible

B.o.B was the king back in the day. Everyone talking about Taylor in these comments, but he made it happen.
Taylor's BEST Collabs
• Both of Us
• Safe and Sound ft The Civil Wars
• I Don't Wanna Live Forever - Zayn Malik
• Two Is Better Than One - Boys Like Girls
• Thug Story ft TPain
• Exile ft Bon Iver [NEW]
mono album of year How you gonna do Last Time, End Game, and Everything has Changed like that?
Don't forget ''Highway Don't Care'' with Tim Mcgraw.

Everything has changed
I'm still laughing how B.o.B gets all these mainstream artists and is not more famous than he already is.. He is so damn underrated....
+Nikeairon24 this was 3 years ago when his music was good now hes making some gangsta shit. He doesn't realize that this is his sort of music.
No he's not lol. Listen to his new mixtape/mini album

Maybe
yeah! I hope so!:-) :-D
+Clutch handla already tired of it after 2 minutes.
The day this video was released was the day my daughter was born l'll never forget it Now we sing to it! This song and clover
It's such a sweet story❤
This gives me serious 80’s movies vibes where Taylor is the older sister who takes care of her two younger brothers because they’re parents have either left or have neglected them and she slowly falls for B.O.B who reminds her how to be happy again despite their circumstances 🥺
2023 and still vibing. Timeless and priceless lyrics. You deserve all the flowers B.O.B.
completely ❤
A man that went down the road of flat earth conspiracies, among other things doesn’t deserve flowers. He had a few decent songs in his early years, but that’s it.
Thank you Judge for that piece of verdict. However, some of us always remember the good while learning from the bad, hence I salute the man and give him the flowers. A man needs to explore every conspiracy possible to satisfy his curiosity. Shame on you for not being curious enough@@prettierjesus3119
@@prettierjesus3119your honestly a shame to the swiftie community. Separate art from the artist.
@@prettierjesus3119 such a shame right? to even hate the artist just coz he in flat earth thing... he did deserve some flowers just think about it i almost forgot BOB did made bruno to spark .. just to listen to this one with taylor is something out of the blue like taylor featuring in a rap song?
THIS SONG IS CRIMINALLY UNDERRATED!
Still is 😢
Righhhttt??!!😭
Louder!!!!
I really like how there is a mix of acoustic, pop, and rap. In addition, I don't listen to a lot of rap but man B.O.B has a creative mind
"Sometimes I wonder why we care so much about the way we look, and the way we talk, and the way we act, and the clothes we bought, how much did that cost? Does it even really matter?" Unfortunately the answer is yeah.
....and its the people with a shallow-ish superficial way of thinking that this song was written for. if everyone could try to change to not judging people for the way we look, act, dress etc. we could make the world better!

Facts I can’t say anything to her face
@Amelia De groot ahhh I love what you did there
RIGHT shes so pretty that its hard to even look at her (that wasn't supposed to be a gorgeous reference but I guess it is)

It’s almost December of 2019 and I still bump this song
christina marie even me too

Took me back to those days!
Same here ☝🏻

This song got me through a lot of tough times. To whoever is reading this, you'll get through what you're dealing with your life rn, maybe not today but you will eventually. You can do it.
UA-cam these days is bringing these nostalgic and legendary songs for us without us searching for it
YESS, I got it on my recommendation
She's absolutely stunning.
this song is so good, but underrated, i almost forgot this song exists.
me too
I didnt know it exsisted
She means not alot of people talk about it
i didnt know 32 millions views meant underrated
Me neither
The old b.o.b had some of the greatest collaborations ever
Holy sh** this just got recommended to me now. But I always hear this on the radio in the year 2012 without me knowing the name of this song.
Every comment here is literally "am i the only one...?"
No, you are not the only one who came here for Taylor
No, you are not the only one who thinks B.o.B raps about real shit

4 years ago this was my favorite song. I knew this was sung by Taylor Swift, but I never really noticed it. Now, 4 years later, I'm a huge Swiftie and I just discovered this song again. It's just so emotional and beautiful

this is a awesome song
Thomas Just Dance i guess u r biased
THIS IS LITERALLY WHAT HAPPEND WITH ME NOT JOKING!
I came back here after a long time. Honestly I even forgot this song existed. It deserves better..

its 2024 and this still rocks! i hope this will be played in the eras tour
favorite song. me and my girlfriend are on a break and I don't know if we are getting back together and I'm struggling financially right now and this song gives me hope and strength to stand tall and I say "I WILL MAKE IT!!"
+Kyle Laniel You'll make it :)
+writingpineapple she found someone else. oh well. she never deserved me if she was able to find someone else that easy.
+Kyle Laniel I'm 17 (SO I'm probably younger than you sigh) but eitherways, listening to music like this and focusing on yourself. Ultimately being content will be the time you'll shout: "I MADE IT" ~ You'll get there hehe
+writingpineapple yeah, music and weed is the one true love of mine. its been there when no one else has.
jan klasen don't judge someone by the things they do without knowing there story. You don't know me or what i struggle with or have struggled through in life. Weed isn't a drug. It's naturally grown its a herb. Its is used by doctors and has been proven tonsure cancer. Do your research before talking shit. Same thing I tell doctors and it doesn't kill braincells if you use your damn brain while high.
I am really shocked that this song is underrated
Taylor Sweet this was really a hit back then, it was my jam 💕

Thank you again Jesus! And if those who knew the TRUTH, knew the TRUTH; in its EXACT DUE MOMENT, would let it come to play..Thankyou to all who still gave me their trust; when I had none. I hope to of have been the one that these did it to as one of the least.. a prophet who is alive and now lives speaking. I cannot wait to meet Jesus Christ as well as any of his faithful Apostles, disciples or from Judas is'cariot's side of brothers as well. Long as they can give me a reasonable response as to why, the good news is being delivered. I'm happy. Love you Lori Johnson from many many years ago.2023/14/04 as of April its your former student.
B.o.B talent was not meant for this world.
neither is greater than the other. this song is a great complimentary display of vocals. Taylor is light and airy, while BoB brings back the masculine feeling and edginess. It's a masterpiece tbh.
I can't believe I've never heard this song. It's so beautiful 💕
@Sleep in I know who B.o.B and Taylor Swift are lol. I just never heard this song specifically, I was only 7 when it came out.

the fame got to his head. he's changed.

My best friend's mom passed away last Friday; I just heard about it today. She died very quickly from an aggressive form of leukemia, which, by the time that the symptoms started showing, it was already too late. Hearing this news ruined my night, considering how close I was with him and his mom; I spent a lot of my years growing up with both of them. Losing a parent sucks, no matter how old you are, and I won't even make it for the funeral because I live so far away, and I don't have a car. After spending some time in the dark, alone with my thoughts, this song sprung to mind. It lays the message bare what I wish that I could do for my dear old friend right now: become strong enough for the both of us. 😢😭😞
you know, 2012 is like the best year for pop music
True
+Patrice Urie allrightt
Agreed.
+Patrice Urie and movies
yeah
Taylor Swift's singing part is simply beautiful
Usually, I hate rap, but I really like this song. It has a really nice message.
Elizabeth Proctor bitch kindly gtfo!
Elizabeth Proctor nice is mediocre, this song is excellently not
Thats just what I was thinking, I even like this rap and have learned all the lyrics to it
Ya know there are a lot of rap songs with deep meanings not all of rap songs are about money of girls u just gotta find the right songs and there rlly nice songs too
Dont how u can hate rap but whatever
Omg my heart almost stopped for a second when Taylor started singing: it REALLY sounded like she was gonna go “I wish I could fly-y (I’d pick you up and we’d go back in time)” 😭😂🥲 I know this isn’t that song ofc, but I’ve never heard it before (I don’t think) so 😅🫠🤣
taylor looks so pretty in this video
She look good in any video shiiii
she is gorgeous!!!!! no other singer like her i love her so much! i wish i could meet her
She is always pretty.
she shouldnt have cut her hair

7 years ago:
endgame is my fav

Hey don't forget the comedy Rap sketch that Taylor and T Pain did. Taylor's verse about baking cookies makes me laugh all these years later. Taylor has always been a fan of Rap music.

Thug story 4 life
This song will remain relevant till the end of time.

Another underrated song.
Why is the best songs so underrated I don’t understand
this song is fucking amazing. I can't believe I never heard it.
Quantom Arrow so true
are views the only measure of appreciation?
one of her best songs. her breakup songs have more view that's why she keep making them. recently her songs are all about shades
Guys this ain’t owned by Big Machine/Shamrock, we should totally start streaming this
Even more of a reason to stream
Waiting for re-record?
how can a rap song make me cry and feel sad and peaceful at the same time? u are the reason for everything taylor…
This is real rap,not that shit we listen today. The essence of rap music should be in the lyrics, but real deep lyrics that actually have value that can tech you something and make you think about what's truly important. Today every single song that they call rap just spins around the same shit like drugs,alcohol,money,prostitution...Litle kids grow up with that shit calling it music,calling those idiots artists,listening to it cuz they want to be excepted,and everyone else listens to it so it must be cool right? Wrong,music is a very powerful thing it can shape the character of someone,so be careful what you listen to...
Toni Zattila I suggest you listen to the white stripes. ... sometimes things really are the same. It's just styled & worded differently. It's just that egos get in the way. If everything's a game, we all get played. Sorry just facts
Toni Zattila this is the rap I actually like
exactly that's what I'm saying. I see you have a Blink 182 pic, Im also more of a rock person,but I also appreciate other genres as long as it is something meaningful like this.
We better respect respective genres, there is no answer in music, in art. What would be an ideal music dude, a song giving a lesson? A song cure someone's pain? Well, there is no ideal or answer in music. when I feel depressed and wanna cry then I go listen to sad songs. When I feel tired and need refresh then I go listening hiphop or EDM music. No answer so no need to force but recommend :)
yall who likes this better check out BTS. all of their songs are meaningful and they have the best rapline in the industry ever.
This video deserves more views
+AshleyxRadiance True dat
+AshleyxRadiance 38m aint enough? lol
+Free Life Records that's what I'm saying haha
this video must've been filmed in Ohio. looks very industrial.. :/
right yes it does
everyone talks about Taylor's part in the song, but b.o.b's rapping is incredibly good too
She finally stopped being ashamed. And got with a black man. You go Taylor Swift. It's the greatest love you'll ever feel in your life.
Some people just discovered this...while I have this on my everyday playlist, it's literally one of my most listened songs...
This song has been on my playlist for 9 years
*They didn’t really promote it though!* I suspect her music label didn’t want her country fans to shy away due to structural rasism. And seeing how some spoke out when Swift a few years ago stood up against racism and homophobia, many of her right wing fans got very angry at her because they thought her previous silence had meant she had the same view on people as they did.
What an underrated song. Would love if they collaborate again...
Omg i just knew this song!!!
i wonder what bobs reaction bout taytays look what u made me do??
Siempre me ha encantado Taylor.
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋
I want 2012 back it gave us superb songs!
2009 was the golden year for music
2010 too, damn i miss those days
all of you are correct
Same, I remember this song
I love 2009-2012's music.
I don't know why UA-cam decided to recommend this song after 11 years. I forgot this collab ever existed😬
Brings back memories of me singing this song with my best friend who, i don't know where she is now. I hope she thinks of me whenever she hears this song.
