Same here. 😊 I fell in love with their music after I heard this 🥰 Brian Burkheiser is such an inspirating vocalist, especially after his vocal injury 😊
@@EllieroseReacts said that it's hard to find a cover song that better than the original. I personally found the cover of "hello" by Adele by Dayseeker to be much better to a reaction to dayseeker hello please 🙏
The part you said you didn’t like towards the end is known in this genre as the break down. Almost every song of this genre has something similar. That’s why they did that to bring the pop goes punk into full effect.
I could tell she was uncomfortable when the “Don’t say I didn’t warn you” breakdown hit.... but it’s okay, not everyone likes metal. This was the cover and one of the singles that made I Prevail famous, and I’m glad she enjoyed it. Mad props for giving it a chance!🤘🏻🔥❤️
I wasnt uncomfortable, it was just a bit of a shock haha, i have some more reactions to IPREVAIL coming soon and once i understand what i was letting myself in for i was able to enjoy it a bit more hehe :) xx
@@EllieroseReacts fair enough, I actually highly respect that! I’m happy you plan on listening to more I Prevail stuff. If you want a personal recommendations from me, check out My Heart I Surrender and Alone from their Lifelines album😊
Hey Ellierose, great reactions! you seem to like a wide variety of music styles... would be fun to have you react to Disturbed's cover of "Sounds of Silence"
Just stumbled upon your reaction of iPrevail. I'm a big iPrevail fan. I highly recommend reacting to their music video for "Hurricane". They also have a secondary reimagined version of Hurricane that you may like even more. But the "Hurricane" music video is worth the watch. iPrevail is such a great band
Our Last Night is a band that covered a few Taylor swift songs. Look What You Made Me Do is a really good one! Should react to them! Great videos. Keep it up!
Between I prevail and Our Last Night im not sure which band i love more, both put out incredible covers and original music, though ive met i prevail before and theyre an awesome group of people and put on an amazing show, havent seen our last night live yet
@@x_Chib_o I'd say they're both great. But, I prevail is extremely harmonic compared to Our Last Night who's more brutal, raw and a little harder to appreciate for non-metal fan !:P
This came out 8 years ago and is amazing. Fell in love with this version of the song back then. Taylor not knowingly helped I Prevail reach mainstream status. As a die hard swiftie this is awesome to see.
Some day I'm going to karaoke this song. They'll announce it as "Blank Space" with everyone expect Swift's version but I'm totally doing I Prevail's cover.
Your reactions are fantastic! You need to just take your pick of the "Punk Goes Pop" albums! There as so many great covers on that album! Or react to Thirty Seconds To Mars covering Rihanna's song "Stay"
That part before the final chorus is typically known as a "breakdown". Aggressive breakdowns are a big part of this style of music and tbh I think it is an acquired taste.
I Prevail's cover gives me the best goosebumps. I don't care for Taylor Swift that much because I love music that goes hard, but I find mellow enjoyment in some of her songs, too. I was actually looking for Taylor's reaction to this cover so now I'm down a rabbit hole. Glad to hear you like Falling in Reverse!!
Very common and understandable that folks get attached to the versions they hear first. As a huge lover of covers, I always crack up whenever people claim to "prefer the original" only to find out that there was an earlier version. Obviously doesn't apply here, but you'd be surprised by how many mainstream pop hits have been covers!
I love seein people’s reactions to music especially metal. Where I’m from a lot of ppl hate it so I always get excited when I show someone something and they actually like it. It’s priceless
Search “leo moracchioli taylor swift cover” - he is a one man band, out of Norway I think, that does metal/rock covers of a ton of popular songs and he’s really good, and funny too.
There is a cover that is about as good as the original if not better: Sound of Silence By Disturbed (Simon & Garfunkel Cover) High Hopes by Nightwish (Pink Floyd's Cover) By the way ... you should definitly check "Nightwish Ghost Love Score" Live at Wacken 2013 ! It will leave you, breathless, speachless and more !
I really appreciate the positive critique of a cover like this! I really like iprevail and this style but so many people just hate on bands and songs like this because their friends do and then the hate just spreads.
Ok so i'm not a huge pop fan, but in the spirit of good fun I think it would be great to see Taylor cover one of I Prevail's songs. If it''s well done I can always appreciate a good cover even if the genre isn't really my thing. Oh, and this cover is awesome!
You should check out stuff from Leo Moracchioli, he does metal covers of songs there were never meant to be metal. He is really talented. You would be surprised how well some songs adapt. I guess the song Africa is a good jumping off point. He has 350 or so covers from all genres.
There's a fun fact about Taylor Swift and especially this song - it is that the main songwriter of "Blank Space" is Karl Johan Schuster aka "Shellback" and he was formerly a melodic death metal songwriter and vocalist back in the mid-2000's. His last band was called "Blinded Colony" and they released a song called "Once Bitten Twice Shy" which is awesome - he does the vocals on this. I don't think you'd like it but it's fun to see how he went from one extreme to the other ;) - Also there is a music video for Blinded Colony - Once Bitten, Twice Shy !
This is my favorite cover song of all time. The next best is Upon a Burning Body & Ice-T's version of "Turn Down for What". But there are a number of other great punk/pop covers of pop songs, like Youth in Revolt's "Royals" and Go Radio's "Rolling in the Deep". Just keep crawling down the rabbit hole.
The point of a cover is never to be better than the original, it's to make an "own" iteration of the song, which one is better than the other is subjective anyway, good video!
Hi everyone in comment section below! This is such a great cover. I am as of 5 yrs ago a Taylor Swift fan admittedly loll. She's a talented singer songwriter! 💯 Not half bad 2 look at it either 🤔
I love your reaction style to this. Instead of pausing every 10 seconds, you just let it play and let your face do the talking. Then you actually talk about it after
This is one of my most favorite react videos on UA-cam I have watched it several times the first time I watched i anticipating you to hate this but to both our surprise you enjoyed it lol
I Prevail! Check out "Hurricane"... kinda explains their story a bit to stardom... another good bad... Maybe try Amitty Afflication or Asking Alexandra... similar lines of music
I’m gonna be honest I Prevail’s version is better than the original (in my opinion)
I agree this version is way better than the original
Yes!!
Definitely
Killed it! 👊🏼
Much.Better👌
Shes begining to believe. Metal covers of every song is the only true way to world peace
YES!!
Punk Goes Pop ruined me for life. I love it.
Thats how it starts. When you don't enjoy a certain gerne, at least search for songs that you love to ease yourself into the gerne :D
Check out lover to lover by Upon A Burning Body vs the original
Facts
This cover was how I discovered I Prevail. They’re really good at being on brand with every single they release.
it was their break into fame. their stuff is so good
Same, heard this cover, bought their EP and I've been a fan ever since.
Yup it was this cover that even got them signed onto a label. Dope band. Great live as well.
bro i loved this cover and one day i saw their name on the radio and when i realized why the name sounded familiar i was shockedddd
Same here. 😊 I fell in love with their music after I heard this 🥰 Brian Burkheiser is such an inspirating vocalist, especially after his vocal injury 😊
Forgot this cover even existed!
You should listen to We Came As Romans' cover of I Knew You Were Trouble 👊
Ooo thanks! I’ll give it a listen! X
@@EllieroseReacts said that it's hard to find a cover song that better than the original. I personally found the cover of "hello" by Adele by Dayseeker to be much better to a reaction to dayseeker hello please 🙏
I think you'll like this cover, I'm a fan. Unfortunately, I believe the lead singer also passed away :/
She just need to listen to all 7 punk goes pop albums😂🤙🏻
@@xDarkTrinityx You’d be correct. Kyle Pavone passed away... They have continued on with their harsh vocalist though.
I Prevail is an amazing band. A great song to get to know them by is Hurricane. It'll give you their sound and also tell you the story of the band.
Hurricane live was amazing. I wish they had the remastered done and out when I saw them in concert.
Stuck in your head is a good one. Or scars. Or alone... Lol i love them!
I think you might like Bring Me The Horizon TearDrops

Love that song
Yessssssss

Good profile pic
Loved the fact you didn't pause the song every 15 seconds to speak about it like most people do, it's nice to have a complete play through 🤘
The part you said you didn’t like towards the end is known in this genre as the break down. Almost every song of this genre has something similar. That’s why they did that to bring the pop goes punk into full effect.
"It's really tough to find a cover that's better than the original..."
Disturbed - Sound of Silence
Shinedown - Simple Man
Linkin Park - Rolling in the Deep
Johnny Cash - Hurt
@@StevenResnick boy u didnt need to snap like that with those 3
Bad wolves- Zombie
That massive smile at the first scream said it all. Glad you enjoyed it hahaha
It's amazing how metal bands can take a not so great pop song and turn it into a great metal song. 1000% better than the original. Hands down
Agreed
If you like covers you should do, A Day to Remember’s cover of, Since you Been Gone.(Kelly Clarkson).
Such a good fuckin cover
And cable car
Lauren Babic version of since you been gone
She called the breakdown "screamo". It's time to dig my grave😂🔫
“Full on screamo”😅🙃
I could tell she was uncomfortable when the “Don’t say I didn’t warn you” breakdown hit.... but it’s okay, not everyone likes metal. This was the cover and one of the singles that made I Prevail famous, and I’m glad she enjoyed it. Mad props for giving it a chance!🤘🏻🔥❤️

This came out 8 years ago and is amazing. Fell in love with this version of the song back then. Taylor not knowingly helped I Prevail reach mainstream status. As a die hard swiftie this is awesome to see.
I would love to see Taylor Swift react to this version if her song. Bc it sounds amazing, I love it
I’m surprise she hasn’t done that already! Unless she has and I didn’t know about it, lol. 🤘🤘
as a taylor swift fan and a daughter of someone who grew up listening to metal in my dad’s car, i love this cover
Some day I'm going to karaoke this song. They'll announce it as "Blank Space" with everyone expect Swift's version but I'm totally doing I Prevail's cover.
Please record it and upload for us all. 😊

IMHO they killed it! Their version is on point.
Which version of killed
Ruined or absolutely smashed it
@@my5try They used an exclamation point so obviously meant smashed it
@@Stuhtters sound u can never know in 2023
@@my5try Fair enough lol
@@Stuhtters yeahh haha
Now they are one of the biggest bands out there
Can’t wait to see them live next month never seen them before just found there music though the undead tour with halestorm
how can someone don't like a fricking breakdown

I was actually looking for Taylor's reaction to this cover so now I'm down a rabbit hole. Glad to hear you like Falling in Reverse!!
So, the first time I heard Blank Space is this version. I LOVED it. I'm a fairly new Swiftie. I'm glad you liked it.
Our Last Night covered "Look What You Made Me Do" and its FANTASTIC!!!
Kinda wanted you to hear the end when one of their band members was about to give away his phone number to Taylor. XD
I Prevail's cover is definitely up there along with Bad Wolves-Zombie

right in my highschool
@@ivanlara4623 Really? Your highschool is amazing dude
Love story- Amongst the ruins
@@kixs4020 Yeahh i love the scream part
Jeeeezus, I forgot about them for so long, lol
Take a listen to everything by this band, and all the punk goes punk music
This song, That’s What I Like by DGD, and Boyfriend by Issues are my favorite PGP songs that i've heard so far
This cover absolutely blew them up. You might like some of their songs off of their album Lifeline, some of them are more poppy than screamy.
Proof Taylor Swift writes metal lyrics but in pink.
She still thinks the original better . Says no one ever 😹
That cover put I prevail on the map. You should react to Constance by Spiritbox
I LOVE. I Prevail! I jam this song daily!
Ok so i'm not a huge pop fan, but in the spirit of good fun I think it would be great to see Taylor cover one of I Prevail's songs. If it''s well done I can always appreciate a good cover even if the genre isn't really my thing. Oh, and this cover is awesome!

You need to try the band "From Ashes to New" either "wait for me" or "Panic"

Punk goes pop, is an amazing way to show people music they haven't been exposed to. It's safe common ground.
Lmao what I find hilarious is that I love the cover and I found it after Taylor’s version came out.
I thoroughly enjoyed watching how you became enraptured in the music
Favorite song in the world😊
This is my favorite cover song of all time. The next best is Upon a Burning Body & Ice-T's version of "Turn Down for What". But there are a number of other great punk/pop covers of pop songs, like Youth in Revolt's "Royals" and Go Radio's "Rolling in the Deep". Just keep crawling down the rabbit hole.
Best cover ever is disturbed- the sound of silence its so much better then the original
My older brother doesn’t listen to Taylor but he loves this bands
The point of a cover is never to be better than the original, it's to make an "own" iteration of the song, which one is better than the other is subjective anyway, good video!
That smile after the first fry verse, metal has a new fan. Love it!
Metal covers: A gateway drug.
I'll never get tired of watching this. Hahaha
thats my favorite band right there
Our Last Night did a dope rock cover too with no screaming. It would be interesting to see which one you like better.
7 rings?look what you made me do? Radioactive, drag me down? Which one
@@maxcoli3629 Oh I meant to Blank Space haha
Our last night blank space the best
Man you can really tell the improvement in their quality over the years
Hi everyone in comment section below! This is such a great cover. I am as of 5 yrs ago a Taylor Swift fan admittedly loll. She's a talented singer songwriter! 💯 Not half bad 2 look at it either 🤔
I Prevail covered a couple of her songs.
I Prevail is how I learned about this song lol. 🤘didn’t know it was her. She’s rad too though 😉
Try my first story they covered we never ever getting back together. One of the best Taylor swift song cover out there.
This is how it should be sung.
I love your reaction style to this. Instead of pausing every 10 seconds, you just let it play and let your face do the talking. Then you actually talk about it after
this one is better than the original 100%
You should listen to Our Last Night rendition of this cover. I feel like they are the kings of covers, they are so good!
Better then the original!!! Knocked it out!
My top five favorite songs
Check out Lauren Babic cover of Toxic. Or any of her other pop goes metal
This is one of my most favorite react videos on UA-cam I have watched it several times the first time I watched i anticipating you to hate this but to both our surprise you enjoyed it lol
I Prevail brings the emotion and intensity to the lyrics that Taylor was lacking
I Prevail! Check out "Hurricane"... kinda explains their story a bit to stardom... another good bad... Maybe try Amitty Afflication or Asking Alexandra... similar lines of music
Eargasm 😂
i love i prevail
Disturbed sound of silence cover is way better than the original
I’m a rock guy myself and rock covers are my favorite thing about the independent music scene
it is a great cover and I am glad you took the time to listen...funny this cover is what brought the band to the "spotlight".
This quickly became Iprevail's song. ❤❤❤❤❤❤IPrevail
I prevail is amazing
Bullet for my valentine - radioactive 👌👍very similar!! Hope you enjoy
You should listen As I Lay Dying - My Own Grave 😁🔥
This sounds like 2000s rock and I love it
Every thing is better with metal music
Much better this version. And no lip sync
Its certainly a lot more emotional and passionate.
or anything from the pop goes punk series. all great songs
metal makes everything BETTER
