Wow guys over a thousand views in 2 days! Thank you for all the kind words, I am planning a live stream for Friday night to celebrate “Folklore”, stay tuned for more details.
Searched for a male version of this to fit the song and then I found your cover. Its amazing! ❤️ It gives me the feels of early 2000s music vibe. Like good riddance by greenday just like that kind of song. rip replay button 😂👌❤️
Guys I am so excited to bring you this cover of such an amazing song. Hands down my favorite track on “Folklore”, Taylor proves that she is still one of the greatest songwriters in the pop music genre. Stay tuned for a lot more content from “Folklore” and I plan on doing a live stream this Friday night featuring my favorite songs from the album, more details to follow, so stay tuned. Please subscribe and leave a like and a comment. Happy Sunday!
omg this gives big billie joe armstrong/green day vibes which i LOVE and is so different from taylors discography but her musics so versatile gotta love it
I feel like you are the best person there is to cover TS songs. I don't know why I have this feeling like ending up loving every TS covers of yours compared to other people's covers.
Thank you for the really sweet comment on my channel! For some reason the comment disappeared and wouldn't let me respond to it so I wanted to let you know I appreciate it!!
my favorites: August, Betty, Illicit Affair and Invisible String 🤍
Good picks James!
Dude u literally can take credit of Betty lol Bcs ur name was in it 😂😂😂 well I hope u're not cheating at a girl named Betty 😂😂😂
those are my faves too
I'm loving to listen to male covers of betty, because it's from the perspective of a guy so it really matches
Yes! This is song is too good!
I mean don't put a "male" perspective label on it cause James can be anyone than just a man.
@@kptoca it just sounds like male name for me
@@henrysoprano7 Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively's DAUGHTER is named James so...
ANKADOR And James name is mostly used by males so....
He lowkey kinda sounds like Green Day. Is it just me?
People tell me that a lot lol.
Omoooo it does sound like GD!!!!!
Exactly
[Verse 1]
Betty, I won't make assumptions
About why you switched your homeroom, but
I think it's 'cause of me
Betty, one time I was riding on my skateboard
When I passed your house
It's like I couldn't breathe
[Pre-Chorus]
You heard the rumors from Inez
You can't believe a word she says
Most times, but this time it was true
The worst thing that I ever did
Was what I did to you
[Chorus]
But if I just showed up at your party
Would you have me? Would you want me?
Would you tell me to go fuck myself
Or lead me to the garden?
In the garden, would you trust me
If I told you it was just a summer thing?
I'm only seventeen, I don't know anything
But I know I miss you
[Verse 2]
Betty, I know where it all went wrong
Your favorite song was playing
From the far side of the gym
I was nowhere to be found
I hate the crowds, you know that
Plus, I saw you dance with him
[Pre-Chorus]
You heard the rumors from Inez
You can't believe a word she says
Most times, but this time it was true
The worst thing that I ever did
Was what I did to you
[Chorus]
But if I just showed up at your party
Would you have me? Would you want me?
Would you tell me to go fuck myself
Or lead me to the garden?
In the garden, would you trust me
If I told you it was just a summer thing?
I'm only seventeen, I don't know anything
But I know I miss you
[Bridge]
I was walking home on broken cobblestones
Just thinking of you when she pulled up like
A figment of my worst intentions
She said "James, get in, let's drive"
Those days turned into nights
Slept next to her, but
I dreamt of you all summer long
[Verse 3]
Betty, I'm here on your doorstep
And I planned it out for weeks now
But it's finally sinkin' in
Betty, right now is the last time
I can dream about what happens when
You see my face again
[Pre-Chorus]
The only thing I wanna do
Is make it up to you
So I showed up at your party
Yeah, I showed up at your party
[Chorus]
Yeah, I showed up at your party
Will you have me? Will you love me?
Will you kiss me on the porch
In front of all your stupid friends?
If you kiss me, will it be just like I dreamed it?
Will it patch your broken wings?
I'm only seventeen, I don't know anything
But I know I miss you
[Outro]
Standing in your cardigan
Kissin' in my car again
Stopped at a streetligh
You know i miss you
