"It turns out freedom ain't nothing but missing you." This line carries so much weight.
She’s such a great songwriter.
@@burnsmiddlegirl totally💯😭
frrr
Painful to watch.... she was super insecure then.... fresh off tayor Lautner breakup. Now that she made a music video with him.... all is healed. Eras tour❤❤😊👏👏👏👏👏
How heavy is the weight though?
10 years later and I still can’t get over this song.
Itswarangrut me too.
my girl left me and my country in Dec 28th, 2008 exactly 1 month before my 16th birthday. I'd do anything to come back to that December
@@NgNicholasSonHa where you come from?
Every1 loves all too well.. All too well reminds me of back to December.. This song is the OG
What’s there to get over?
can't believe she wrote this whole album alone. i'm so thrilled still after a decade.
@me4soobin i dont think 1989 tv is coming that would be a huge mistake bc red and 1989 were here most famous albums i think after red debut or speak now will be dropped
@@bettyscardigan didn't she confirm RED out on Nov 19?
@@yashnatiwari5484 she did and i am talkin bout the era after red tv
She’s a versatile
It's really not... countless great artists write all their songs alone.
It's been 11 years and I'm still not over them. 💔
"If we'd love again, I swear I'd love you right"
Damn 11 yrs???
Sadly we know that not gonna happen again cuz taylor lautner is getting married with his beloved gf taylor dome :))
taylor lautner married and taylor happy with joe, probably getting married soon too
Me too
me too Im not over them yet
I think that this is one of her best songs.
me too! it's perfect
It actually is
yaaasss it is
yes!! amazing feels!!
+Prithvish Banerjee haha tangina mo!!! you bitch!
Poor Taylor. She was fighting back tears trying hard not to cry while she performed. The painful look in her eyes look all too real and the pained sound of her voice said it all. She was hurting and had a hard time trying to hold back her emotions that nearly took over her.
3:20 she choked little bit 😮. Must be emotional
She shouldnt have sung this song
She is always emotional while singing this song
me too
Yes very
Taylor Lautner was that ex she regretted letting go. But Im already happy for Taylor now.
@@allieserencio Which Taylor?
@@allieserencio Yeah thats super sad. 'Cause the Taylor squad could have been a power couple.
Years later, Taylor found the JOE she deserved and Lautner found the TAYLOR he deserved... So happy for both of them now. ♡
That’s so sweet
yes 🥺🥺
Happy ending
She started with Joe, and ended with Joe.....
@@oleanasea they broke up
Taylor's so nice that she wrote a song for not treating a guy as she should. She's so honest in songwriting and people call her fake.. Really haters u need to calm down Taylor deserve sooo much love ❤
Ps:I just saw this, thank you for the likes!
Correct 😉
@@saishabhatura1035 I think Taylor Lautner
@@sameenarubab-9184 ohh and why did they break up?
@@saishabhatura1035 i don't know☹️
@@sameenarubab-9184 o , anyway thanks
This song fills every inch of my soul even after 4 years. No jokes. I feel something that I can't explain. It's sad and beautiful at the same time.
me too...
idk why, but same
same
It's just so heartfelt
Maria Eduarda just gonna say the same thing
This gave me chills, you can see she truly was hurt and probably wished Taylor was there
I didn’t get it for the first second, i was like- she wished herself was there? And i realised
Ohhhhhh was confusion for a bit there
@@ngwantsing9070 Taylor Lautner
@@laura_pumarejo29 ye ik lmao i was confused at first
Actually, since Red TV came out, I was thinking, “oh, wasn’t the relationship with Jake around late 2010?” Because from the date of the video, this performance happened not long before her 21st birthday… so maybe she was sad for another reason
I still kind of teary eyed everytime I hear this song. She’s so real. Her works are truly part of herself
She didn't lipsync but sounded exactly like the recording version.
she did over do the lip stick,and make up,,like they do
StuTheBru me ... they said lipSYNC, not lipSTICK 😂
@@minstrelofMir lipsync bro.not lipstick..lol
@@ahyaahya2447 both
@@minstrelofMir lol
“I’d go back in time and change it but I can’t. So if the chain is on your door, I understand.”
DAMN!
And the lines before that: "Maybe this is wishful thinking, probably mindless dreaming.. but if we loved again, I swear I'd love you right."
Man these lines hit hard af!
I think the way she's looking up at 2:59 shows she's trying not to cry and/or she's thinking a lot, cuz the song means a lot to her...
Nope, she was looking at the fans sitting upstairs
Denice Arian Oh. xD She looks emotional to me, I do think this song means a lot to her even if she wasn't looking up there because of that.
Oh I'm so bad for Taylor and I was just like her I was unlucky with love all the boys chasing then gone all of my boyfriends who lost on my heart is start in letter j all of them ! I know its weird to say it ! And I know I'm to naive
And her nose turned really red
@The Ultimate Quench wow, you're so weird 😳
She was holding back tears so bad. That’s why she looks up a lot
Her eyes do look watery. I just found out today that this song is about Taylor Lautner.
Was she single during this time?
@@IsThisThePrizeIveWaitedForyeah it’s about him. She was treated him bad and she didn’t care for him..
Who's having a Taylor Swift marathon ?
How you know? Haha
Rohan Vartak meeeee. ♥️♥️
Meer
Meee 🤩❤️
Marathon with Folklore
I'm so glad you made time to see me
How's life, tell me how's your family?
I haven't seen them in a while
You've been good, busier then ever
We small talk, work and the weather
Your guard is up and I know why
Because the last time you saw me
Is still burned in the back of your mind
You gave me roses and I left them there to die
So this is me swallowing my pride
Standing in front of you saying I'm sorry for that night
And I go back to December all the time
It turns out freedom ain't nothing but missing you
Wishing I'd realized what I had when you were mine
I'd go back to December, turn around and make it all right
I go back to December all the time
These days I haven't been sleeping
Staying up playing back myself leaving
When your birthday passed and I didn't call
And I think about summer, all the beautiful times
I watched you laughing from the passenger side
And realized I'd loved you in the fall
And then the cold came, the dark days when fear crept into my mind
You gave me all your love and all I gave you was goodbye
So this is me swallowing my pride
Standing in front of you saying I'm sorry for that night
And I go back to December all the time
It turns out freedom ain't nothing but missing you
Wishing I'd realized what I had when you were mine
I'd go back to December turn around and change my own mind
I go back to December all the time
I miss your tan skin, your sweet smile, so good to me, so right
And how you held me in your arms that September night
The first time you ever saw me cry
Maybe this is wishful thinking
Probably mindless dreaming
But if we loved again I swear I'd love you right
I'd go back in time and change it but I can't
So if the chain is on your door, I understand
But this is me swallowing my pride
Standing in front of you saying I'm sorry for that night
And I go back to December
It turns out freedom ain't nothing but missing you
Wishing I'd realized what I had when you were mine
I'd go back to December turn around and make it all right
I'd go back to December turn around and change my own mind
I go back to December all the time all the time
Thanks💙
thanks anjjg
Thanks
💕
Respect ❤️
"I miss your tan skin, your sweet smile, so good to me, so right
And how you held me in your arms that September night
The first time you ever saw me cry"
Best part!!❤️
Yup
yup her bridges are strong
agree.
@@gsiya4023 the best part of her songs have always been the bridges for me, no other artist is the same. Her bridges just add so much to her songs 🥺
Yes agree and the little beat that goes with it 😁
I don't know exactly what it is, but Taylor really makes you feel it in your heart, each and every song.
She's Singing Her Life experiences, She's not Singing what Someone else wrote, She wrote this about a True Love of Hers that's why You always feel it because most Her songs are about Someone and a real experience of Hers
After 9 years-
The line: "This is me, swallowing my pride, standing in front of you saying "I'm sorry for that night'"
Does that hit anyone... Like hard???
*Just me... Okay*
No you're not alone 🤦🏻♀️
Me! I always think about my ex, because December of 2013 was the highlight of our passion and relationship. The song/lyric fits perfectly to how I feel about.
No.. Not just you. This is literally one of my favourite Taylor Swift tracks.
Are you ok now?
yassss
2:55
That moment when I saw tears in her eyes, it hits so bad....
Same
Well she really regretted leaving Lautner
She was with Jake back then
@@viianeyesmeralda no the songs about Taylor lautner
@@meliahcorbett9766 i think he/she meant that she was singing about taylor lautner but she was in a relationship with jake that caused another masterpiece of a song.
I love how Taylor sounds exactly the same whether it's live or recorded.
Exactly
the fact that she wrote all these beautiful songs with such catchy and beautiful melodies all on her own without any help blows my mind!
This song makes me want to go have a deep meaningful conversation with my crush outside in the rain while this song plays in the background
same🥺🥺
Let's do it
I wish I could do that❤️ but I don’t think I can handle the rejection 💔
Her vocals have improved so much, her persona and songwriting. I grew up with taylor swift music and this song 'ages' like wine
2019 anyone or is it just me having a Taylor Swift Marathon
Mel Bell 13 dude yes!!
Mel Bell 13 me too!
Me!!
Me too
Same!! 😊
We all can literally listen to Taylor when we're sad, happy, angry, depressed, excited or nostalgic...I swear I can live alone with her music...
Same
I love this song Because it was the 1st Apology to any of her boyfriend and if u don't know who it's about I'll tell you
Taylor Lautner
She dated Taylor Lautner?????
+Varshini Fangirl Swift I know how could she get that good
LOL, Taylor X Taylor, I wonder what their ship name is.
Would ave been pretty epic If they got married.....Taylor Lautners.. name their children and grandchildren Taylors aswell... and voilla.. you get an infinite supply of Taylor Lautnerss... ffs
+Sanjoy Ghosh LOL!
Looks like she's stopping herself from crying 😭 my heart! 💔❤️
💛
Exactly
@@yashnatiwari5484 yeah
Yah
She so smart
For me, I think what made this song same with the recording version was the mood that she was emotional.
it's night of 4 december 2022,
every songs of her seems like 'this is the best song of her amongst all the songs.'
can't even decide!
happy december whoever seeing it:)
spread love and positivity, and i wish you achieve all that your heart truly desires.
there's a girl, i love her more than anything. wish me if we could ever meet.
@rahmansalmani you gonna meet her someday just work hard and get as an achievement.
This, white horse, and dear john make me cry every time
Then listen to all to well and last kiss
Listen all to well 😢😢😢😢
And Last Kiss
Last kiss is so fuckin' sad!!
i never agree if taylor with john. that guy too goddamn old for her plus john, just not cool.
Literally want to be back to December when the virus hasn’t spread
But you wouldn't be able to experience a masterpiece called folklore
What if hypothetically somehow we still got folklore this year with no such virus existing?
And a masterpiece called evermore...
Hahhahahahahahahahaha. This made me laugh hard hahahhaa
Best Taylor Swift song EVER. Even after 11 years.
Exactly
Yes
even after 12 years...
"You gave me all your love and all I gave you was goodbye"...
That's my favourite line, and it hits hard.😭
I’m so sad that I barely heard this song till now. I’m glad I found it now though, this song is really beautiful. It’s Totally relatable, and adore how she’s so vulnerable and expresses her feelings in her songs, especially this one.
Yeah😭☹️
Don’t be sad… be happy and enjoy it now. It was meant for you to discover it at the moment you need it in your life.
She is singing thru "true love" . However, she has a destiny and leave things behind.
I can see that every time she sangs this song she get emotional😔
Because the song is really really sad
Soham Chowdhury so many*
Fix your grammar first
Is amazing how sometimes we don't see that she've to have an amazing strenght to sing everything she does cause everything she sings is a life experience for her and remember EVERYTHING over and over again... She is like "do I have to sing this?"
The fact the she said goodbye and she wave 😭 2:25
Hi Swifties it's been 2022, 11yrs ago this is uploaded😭 I still feel the pain😭
you can hear the emotion in her voice... it get to me everytime ... I love you Tay
she sang every word very clear. she really put her heart in this song. Taylor's so amazing
back then and up until now, she looks at the audience from every corner of the room/stadium
You'll know she's a legend when she sang it exactly like the studio version.🦋🦋
LMAO
Looks like Taylor cried before she perform!! And I noticed that she kept looking at the ceiling that's what is do EVERYTIME I'm about to cry (sorry for my bad grammar)
She's not looking at the ceiling but audience on the upper floor
@@priyanshisharma1613 lol
I look at the floor
11 years later and i still ship Taylor Squared ):
how she expresses her emotions in this song is just-
Taylor, don't cry. We are with you
It’s December 2022 and I still love this song even after a decade 😩🫶🏻🫶🏻
Same here
😅
This song, the lyrics and the way she sing.. i can't even describe it. This song totally relate to my past relationship. "you give me all your love and all i give you was goodbye" is totally made me missing him so much.
She's looking up to hold the tears awww
I thank taylor Lautner for treating her so nice that she made this masterpiece song....
Taylor Swift always touches the heart with her music! this live performance is simply moving, her soulful voice and her deep lyrics make this song so special, seeing her sing like that live is just magical!
i always wonder how taylor manage to hold her breath while singing the chorus, as well as the long note in dear john. when i try to sing her song, i almost die everytime just to catch my breath. what kills me the most is the outro/last part of the other side of the door lol 😂
Thanks
ITS DECEMBER 2021 BUT I STILL CANT GET OVER THIS MASTERPIECE ❤️
Right😭
Same
Sameeee
Hello? It's nov 2022 now and december is waving, Christmas is waving!♥️😭

One of her best songs❤💘

One of her top 5 best songs. Timeless and deeply moving.
Taylor must re-record this masterpiece ❤️
Rightt
SHE WILL!
Wish granted!!!
@@ashishsahoo4940 she havent re record back to december yet right? Or am i just living under a rock?
Wonder when can I come here and say that "This aged well"?
she sings live by her beautiful voice, now 2015, i still watch

1who is watching 2017? it's me now!
Who's here because it's QUARANTINE so why not
Me!
Me - can’t stop watching her
Hi all QUARANTINIAN !!!
Me
Yass. Also i kinda miss her old songs:(
The man singing beside her is awesome too.
yes I've always wondered who was the guy in her older songs
@@riyaazjacobs6153 I think that was Paul, her long time guitarist. He's still working with Taylor, until now.
This song aged so well.everytime makes me emotional 😭
The other song that i think aged really well even after folklore is safe and sound
💙💛
At this moment I am searching some of Taylor Swift's live performances, giving me a concert vibe of her and this is when I realized that beauty inside her music never fades and will never be even after decades or centuries 😅
Thankful for her music which embraces my teenage years until now 😍❣️
She's trying to stop her tears. :(
Shein Sy yes
poor baby
i just realised when she performed here, december 2010, jake started treated her badly, and this is why she regrets letting taylor laurent go so much. you can see it all in her emotions
"I go back to December all the time"
December 2019??
Totallyyyyy
2020 guys
@@newton1000 yeah...2020
i wanna go to december 2019. 2020 is shit
December 2040
the way she says birthday makes me feel like ive never heard that word before so perfect
This song means too much to me.
BEST OF ALL TIME FOR TAYLOR SWIFT :) :( dont cry
Me too
And truly, you will never know the importance of that moment until it became a memory.. I miss my farher so much, back when everything was better.. and everyone was nicer
This song is so close my heart. I wish Taylor Swift and Taylor Lautner could get back together..
Update: In this house we stan Joe Alwyn!
But they are never ever getting back together
Like, ever.
ikr
Will she get back with "Loki?"
i love this songggg
Such a beautiful song.
Indeeid
Basil II Macedonia a Beautiful woman singing it too.
Yeah !
Basil II Macedonia I think so.
kinda i guess
This song has a special place in my heart. I was born and brought up in a Catholic family in Texas and my boyfriend was born and brought up in a strict Hindu family back in India. He moved to the states for college. We met in class and instantly fell for each other. The difference in our races created many obstacles for us. Even our parents stood between us because of the religious differences. But we stuck to it and fought all those battles together and today we are the happiest of couples.I hope we get to live with each other forever. ❤️🇺🇸🇮🇳❤️
Awwww, all the best to both of you!
And apparently many other songs have a special place in your heart too?
You commented the same thing in many other videos..... 🙄
@@clumsycucumber1666 🤣lmfao
This was one of my favourite songs growing up and I never understood when people said “Taylor swift just writes songs trashing her ex’s” bc this was THEE Taylor song for me and she was swallowing her pride standing in front of him saying she’s sorry for that night!
2019? This song is already 9 years old but hell, it can still break my heart
4:26 took a such unexpected turn in three steps.....i thought it would come down in equal steps...but it didn't..it just play one and then one and a half and then three..beautiful taylor...beautiful
Hi
This is one of my favourite live performances by Taylor. It seems so raw and pure and beautiful.
Came back here after realizing what the lyric in evermore means; ‘hey December, guess I’m feeling unmoored’. Unmoored means no longer attached, which ends up making that lyric mean she no longer goes back to December.
Her performances during the Speak Now era on Letterman were her best ones..
Taylor Momsen Try to watch her performance in Private Live France
Light Yagami why?
Because it is at its best. Trust me
Light Yagami Ooh thought you meant it in the insult kind of way hehe & thank btw :)
Taylor Momsen
Lol chill. I love Taylor too! She is my queen
Can't believe it's been almost 5 years... This song still hits hard even though I'm a guy....

She sounds just as good live as in her studio versions
better
I can't sing with this live version either. It expresses the grief of every relationship gone wrong and just makes me weep.
Suddenly realized it’s December and my mind just full of Taylor’s voice 🥰
She was about to cry. :'( 2:56
omg yes! se sweet
omg yes
love this song 😍
Yeeees
Irish yeah she was
I used to listen to all these songs when I was 9 with my best friend now I'm 15 and she lives in another country and I'm crying bc I miss all so much
I had a friend called Tania and she left to USA and I cry every night thinking of her I wish she would be good there I miss her more than her best friend I love her!!
Lool u look 25
I see tears but it's still in your eyes, Taylor
More than 10 years...I am here... The song still hits my mind...Taylor Swift is a legendary artist...
It's amazing how long some of the members of her live band have been with her!
Anyway, this is one of my favourit TSwift songs
So teary-eyed it got me shedding my tears along too. This song is so emotional.
3:15 this part makes me cry everytime
Still gives me chills.. So beautiful song...
Back to December is always one of her best song!😭
this is one of my fav songs...
god ... hw I wish if they cud be together again.
they way she sung it....
I cud simply see the pain inside her....
luv u tay
there was this person, who was incredible to me and we had a great relationship but then....i just let him go.
"and when you birthday passed and i didnt call."
"and i think about summer all the beautiful times."
-sighs.
this song just hits too close to home.
hope i could have that kinda relationship with that person again.
i miss him truly, and my heart aches even to this date. (its been 5 years).
Who's here cause Taylor Swift turns 31 today...
So ; I miss this era so much!!!♡
taylor swift is so talented she can play guitar and sing so nicely man I could never do that
❤️❤️❤️
TacoNoodle but she knows a lot about chords
You could play that within 2 months.
Same i cant sing while playing guitar
ALECNA her strumming is insane
Even after many years this song is one of my favorites.
This hits right in my core, i wish i can go back to december when i still had feelings for her and realize what i had when she was mine
I don't know I always cry listening to this song
And never grow up
+Shreya Brahmarouthu the same .

that goes the same way for me lol :) it reminds me of my childhood.
2010 Me: Crying over the Taylor Swift Taylor Lautner break up
2019 Me: Still crying over the Taylor Swift Taylor Latutner break up
It's been 5 years and I'm still not over them
But I'm happy that Taylor and Joe are both in love with each other and i hope they get married
😭
Me too 😿
me too..i feel sorry for her......look at the way she sing this she looks like crying.
the fact that this got recommended in my yt in a december and the day before tay's bday is magical. i always remember that you were born in a december, tay, my fellow sagg and snake.
A Room filled with 200 people to a Stadium filled with 72,000 swifties.
That is the magic of Taylor Swift thoughout the years💜 4:27
