I just watched a whole video of Taylor covers and this is the only one I wanted to hear in full. I know it’s a studio recording, but this about 1000x better than every other cover.
This really makes you realize how talented of a lyricist Taylor is. I don't think I have ever listened to the words of this song as deeply as I have watching this video. I guess that speaks to Vance's performance quality too.
Her lyrics are insanely good. My favourite thing about them is how much they have advanced to reflect nuance over the years, showing how hard working she is
I'm in love with her Grammy performance of wildest dreams, out of the woods and blank space...and there's so much more. Her voice rlly shines in the stripped version
Just like when Swift cover his song Riptide, some people will said " This's better than the original" and another said "Sorry, the original's better" and so that this cover. They sing with their own ways, better or worse that's your opinion and your taste.
How he turned the song into his style and how the song feels a lot diffrent - especially the first part - is just something deserves to be appreciated. I wish he'd sing more songs of Taylor. It'd be great to hear covers from Folklore and Evermore by him. Also, watching this every night before sleep. Advice you to try it. It hits diffrent at night.
+londontolosangeles12 I saw him live last October, his eyes were glistening, like REALLY glistening while he was singing, it was beautiful, there was so much emotion in his performance that I totally fell in love with him
One of my favourite songs (written by my all time favourite artist) covered by an artist who has become another favourite of mine. CANNOT. DESCRIBE. THE. CHILLS. The way he extended "my love" at 2:24 - 2:30 was just beautiful. Saw him play on Valentines day and if possible his voice is even more amazing live than it is on his album. SUCH AN INCREDIBLE ARTIST. Cannot wait to see him live again when the 1989 tour comes to Sydney. And if Vance you ever read this, thank you so much for writing "From Afar" (The feels it gives, my god!) and my best friend Georgia would also thank you for writing "Georgia" for obvious reasons ;)
I can't believe how beautiful this is. I never actually knew that Taylor swift was good at writing songs until I heard Vance Joys version of it! This recording and everything about this song is perfect. Lots of love James, good luck on the tour!
I need to kill off my favorite character in the novel I'm writing- I can't bring myself to do it so I just listen to this song to put me in the right mood.
I know the pain, but dear, it will have the ultimate impact when you do it, cos you felt every word you wrote. Readers will remember. Don't be tempted to forgo it for sentimentality. Hope you write a banger! :)
This will always be one of my favourite video cover songs because of its authenticity. Generally nowadays, covers mostly consist of musicians directly looking into the lenses giving off puppy dog eyes and trying project emotions that are clearly fake.
The community of musical artists is as vast and diverse as it is humbling and personal. Why should we not come together to support others in all communities; as we freely create and share our personal gift with our own smaller pools of humanity? This is the greatest human communication I can imagine. Cheers to Vance Joy, and to Taylor Swift, for their beautiful contributions to the world of music. So much talent!
The thing is.. this man adds some spectacular depth to this song. I always wonder what he feels when he is singing, he is such a soulful interpreter. I can't hear the original after this to be honest.
there's something about this man's voice that makes a pop song sound like the most soulful blues song ever. love this. way more than the original. swifties, please don't kill me.
Well....Taylor saw this...And called it her favorite....And I totally agree this is amazing!!!!!!!!! I have been listening to Taylor since I was 4(I'm 15 now) and she was just starting so I have heard a crap ton of covers and yours is by far the best!!! Congratulation!
Taytay is so talented but these other artists cover her songs and rip all the extra emotion out and it's just wow. This is a fantastic cover. Wonderfully written song to begin with. He really took it to the next level.
So glad I got to see him live. If you think he sounds amazing in recording, he's so much better live! I love Taylor, but her voice sounds about the same live.
Saw this on Snapchat and it didn't say who originally sung this. So I thought maybe it was his song. I though "Damn this is amazing!! Taylor should sing this her voice would sound awesome on this!" Only to find out it is her song. ❤❤ Haven't listened to hers yet but his has me in love with it
You, my good sir, just got the honor of this being Taylors favorite cover of this song. Major brownie points for the tour, people are gonna love you even more than I imagine they do. I'll see you guys the 14th of August, save that amazing voice for the tour my friend.
I don't think I've ever come back to a song so many times, I don't think I've listened to any other songs these last few months. Please put this on apple music!
Nah I still support the og being 1989, it doesn’t go along with the revenge and Kanye story of Rep, it goes with the media perception of her and her relationships and everyone interfering in her life, which is absolutely 1989
I'm not a big fan of TS, but I'm so proud that he's opening for her on tour, he's so talented and deserves the world. Amazing cover. Even better voice. What an angel 👼🏻😍🎶
Taylor's songs are not meant to be covered the same way she sings it, it just doesn't sound that good most of the time. Her songs are meant to be covered by making it your own song, covering it in your own style. Those covers are always the best ones! Love thisss.

He covered her song, she covered his song.
Which song did taylor cover?
@@breathe3469 riptide
@@breathe3469
They nailed each other cover
They’re covering ❤
taylor swift herself said this was her favorite cover of a 1989 song...thats how amazing it is.
it was OOTW not IKP um
where did she said this?
I just watched a whole video of Taylor covers and this is the only one I wanted to hear in full. I know it’s a studio recording, but this about 1000x better than every other cover.
@@ikangelama6790 Yeah, by FK&C. As a Christian I love their cover of OOTW.
@@Smoove_Jpeople butcher her songs all the time. Really makes you realize how good she is.

Such a beautiful version. Taylor needs to do an acoustic album of her pop hits tbh.
caitiedidit EXACTLY
Y E S PLEASE
LOL wtf Ryan Adams did that of 1989
she's done a couple, like delicate, wildest dreams, shake it off, welcome to new york, blank space, gorgeous, cornelia street, london boy etc
I'm in love with her Grammy performance of wildest dreams, out of the woods and blank space...and there's so much more. Her voice rlly shines in the stripped version
Didn't knew this exist ugh this version is so good
Taylor swift just tweeted about your cover of her song!!
***** I didn't know that
***** Hi! I sing :) Check out my cover if you want to
***** Listen to Pete Siner- Tonight
I saw them both in London, hyde park last week (*_*)
+anomy ok, no offense, but self advertising always back fires. nobody's going to click on your channel now
now I need Vance to be featured in the1989 re-recordings, or even speak now, or red, hell even in reputation
Some other dude did 1987.
Just like when Swift cover his song Riptide, some people will said " This's better than the original" and another said "Sorry, the original's better" and so that this cover. They sing with their own ways, better or worse that's your opinion and your taste.
The Ultimate Ways Well said !!
Yes thats what i thought too! Somehow these two seems to sing in magic when theyre preforming:)
I agree with you
Yes its about taste and its clear that people with good taste in music fuxk with the cover and not with taylor.
I agree completely and those people are the reasons why we can't have nice things.
How he turned the song into his style and how the song feels a lot diffrent - especially the first part - is just something deserves to be appreciated. I wish he'd sing more songs of Taylor. It'd be great to hear covers from Folklore and Evermore by him.

I have officially fallen in love with this man....
Same thank u
+londontolosangeles12 same
Me too ❤️
+londontolosangeles12 I saw him live last October, his eyes were glistening, like REALLY glistening while he was singing, it was beautiful, there was so much emotion in his performance that I totally fell in love with him
I saw him first London angels 12...he taken :p jk heart him :)
Guys, let's be honest. We didn't know we needed this cover to survive, but now we do. This was so good, I started crying.
5 years later and this is still the best Taylor cover ever
they should have a song together
their voices would blend nicely
Hopefully on 1989 (Taylor's Version) 🥲
I'm imagining vance joy featuring on carolina...

Taylor is such a great songwriter and Vance Joy is such a good artist..all love..
I'm obsessed with Vance Joy and 1989...so this is perfect.
didnt know Loras Tyrell was a fan of taylor swift
HAHAH
***** hahahaha
Hahaha so I'm not the only one who thought they looked alike!!
***** Ohhhhhhhh, that's where I recognised him from. Haha, even though it's not him :D
Finally,I am not the one who thinks that he looks like him
I love this cover so much. Vance should cover Taylor's entire album tbh. :)
That is an amazing idea
vise versa
Tots
Swifty Bookworms *UNITE*
his voice is honestly sunshine and rainbows
MY EARS.OH MY GOD.PERFECTION!!
I can't believe how beautiful this is. I never actually knew that Taylor swift was good at writing songs until I heard Vance Joys version of it! This recording and everything about this song is perfect. Lots of love James, good luck on the tour!
Georgia Gunn if you want to hear more of Taylor's awesome songwriting, I recommend 'all too well' and 'wonderland'
I don't love Taylor just because she's an awesome artist, I also love her because she introduces me to awesome artists, amazing!
I need to kill off my favorite character in the novel I'm writing- I can't bring myself to do it so I just listen to this song to put me in the right mood.
ME. TOO. OMG.
I KNOW. IT HURTS TO KILL SOMEONE SO BEAUTIFUL BUT WE HAVE TO. I LOATHE IT SO MUCH. AS A WRITER AND A READER AS WELL.
Did you do it? (:
Hope u didn't kill the character!!!!
I know the pain, but dear, it will have the ultimate impact when you do it, cos you felt every word you wrote. Readers will remember. Don't be tempted to forgo it for sentimentality. Hope you write a banger! :)
Vance Joy makes me mourn whenever I hear him, how beautiful and great he sings, he has a fantastic voice.
The way he sings the chorus is just incredible.
Your Incredible and I am very glad that you got to join Taylor Swift on her 1989 tour because you deserved it.
is anyone else extremely proud of how far james has come? oh my gosh, what a musical god
This will always be one of my favourite video cover songs because of its authenticity. Generally nowadays, covers mostly consist of musicians directly looking into the lenses giving off puppy dog eyes and trying project emotions that are clearly fake.
The original version feels sassy and wild, this one feels deep, strong and so, so nostalgic... Damn it.
Today cannot get better first the tour started and now I also get this amazing cover i'm emotional
Love the original, love this cover. I honestly can't wait until I see them live in December this 6 months will be difficult, I'm telling you.
Tris Prior saw u again hi
Swiftie 1989 hi
there should be a prize tbh
Tris Prior ikr
Tris Prior i just saw them last night im telling you it diffidently worth the wait!!
Ciara Smith I am actually so excited

This was hypnotizing and refreshing
im crying why is he so underrated?
This is eargasmic.
I normally listen to metalcore/ deathcore but i've got my eyes open for good music and this dude is amazing, hands down.
jesus christ im sobbing
Taylor Swift lives where I do!!! X)
The thing is.. this man adds some spectacular depth to this song. I always wonder what he feels when he is singing, he is such a soulful interpreter. I can't hear the original after this to be honest.
Love's a fragile thing, it can burn out.
Oh my freaking goodness he is literally perfect
Showcasing Taylor’s true superpower, her songwriting. Love this version.
Vance this is honestly the best cover of a song that has ever touched my ears. Thank you so much
The "baby" part gets me! ❤
my ears have been blessed
This is proof that TS is one of the best songwriters out there. Vance Joy needs to come to South Africa
there's something about this man's voice that makes a pop song sound like the most soulful blues song ever. love this. way more than the original. swifties, please don't kill me.
I've watched this so many times, I can't even begin to remember how much exactly.
i did not see this one coming
perfect performance
This song is forever ours.
My favorite song of 1989!!!! I love this cover
Love the mystery effect of this song, he brings it out perfectly. Love Taylor and Vance!
Crossing my fingers that when Taylor re-record this she will do a version similar to this. (could you imagine a collab?)
Well....Taylor saw this...And called it her favorite....And I totally agree this is amazing!!!!!!!!! I have been listening to Taylor since I was 4(I'm 15 now) and she was just starting so I have heard a crap ton of covers and yours is by far the best!!! Congratulation!
So in love with this cover. I had listen to it almost 20 Time in one hour
Absolutely amazing! Never heard Taylor's performance, but Vance's is all I ever need to hear. Just blown away... speechless.
THIS IS WHAT HEAVEN SOUNDS LIKE
Uhhh...this was so beautiful i do believe that this is the song that I'll hear when I arrive to heaven
I've been obsessed with this more and more lately!!!
You are the only famous person I have ever really liked. I missed you at GTM last year by like 10 minutes, I cried.
My favourite song from her last album. Amazing amazing version!
Maria de Fátima, tamos juntos! Te achei por aqui. My favorite song as well. Best, Bira
Bom gosto o seu, Bira :D Bj
Me too
HIS VERSION IS SO GOOD I'M IN LOVE
the guitar chords sorta sound like his song Georgia , maybe that's why I love this so much ❤️
Listening for the first time and I’m in love, he gives this a really emotional feel
Still going back to this cover. Amazing
Taytay is so talented but these other artists cover her songs and rip all the extra emotion out and it's just wow. This is a fantastic cover. Wonderfully written song to begin with. He really took it to the next level.
literal. perfection.
At 2:36 my heart melds with the song. Thank you Vance Joy.
Original is so freaking FREAKING FREAKING GOOD AND PERFECT BREATHTAKING AND SO COVER IS SO GOOD TOO ALL GOOD
come here and listen it again
I really need this to be downloadable.
So glad I got to see him live. If you think he sounds amazing in recording, he's so much better live! I love Taylor, but her voice sounds about the same live.

1:10 and 1:17 are incredible!!!
this song is perfection
This was my least favourite song of Taylors so I've looked up covers of it and this one is my favourite. I love it. I get a different vibe from it.
Everything Vance Joy sings becomes magic!
This cover belongs to Lover Album
And the original song belongs to reputation Album
no
The covers more red or evermore

Typically not into people "shipping" celebrities, but I could see him and Taylor Swift dating.
Rachel Read Yes, They would be great together.
Rachel Read that relationship wont last longer than a week
Regardless, it would still make for some great music... **I know, that's awful of me to say** :P
She already has a boyfriend :)
Thamires Santos Correct me if I'm wrong, but Calvin Harris has a heart-breaker reputation at this point, and we know how that goes down...
this voice is flawless.
still my fave cover. plAY THIS AT MY FUNERAL
