Kinda disappointed no senator had “I knew you were trouble when you walked in” as their opening statement.
I missed "Baby let the games begin"
Hearing old people quote Taylor Swift is pretty funny ngl
TS isn't Britney Spears, one of the strengths of her music is that it can and is appreciated by a wide spectrum of people. I'm 55 and resistant to pop culture but I'm very much if reluctantly a Swifty.
@@robertvirnig638 but many Britney fans r naturally old tho now... They grew up along with her. Britney is in her 40's.
@@Azarath_Metrion_Zinthos And many of us are older than that. My music prefs go back to the 50s-70s.
Can you imagine how we feel about you?
@@Azarath_Metrion_Zinthos My only point was that Britney's music and the industry's marketing of her were aimed at the teen demographic. Taylor Swift became famous as a teen but was never a teen phenomenon, from the very beginning she had both young and mature fans. And now that she is relatively old from a teenager's viewpoint she still has no shortage of young fans. Her music transcends generations, genres, and other categories you might put fans in.
Is this real life? I’m here for it.
I was on my toes watching this live, it was bittersweet. I hope they get what's coming for them for the emotional damage they caused 👏
Boo hoo, you couldn't go to a concert, you're so oppressed
taylor swift brings the world together
Taylor Swift making an impact in the world
Again! She has done alot for artists rights and other issues.
She must be proud to see her work being used for betterment of the world
Yes! They are evil. Please shut them down. It was a nightmare to get BTS tickets. We can't do anything against the bots and then the reselling. Those prices are simply unreachable.
The United States Senate (Taylor's Version)
This merger should never have been allowed to happen
Their daughters must have been their speech writers for this time.
Hope Taylor does a song on Ticketmaster and slams their blotched ticket fiasco!!
Wouldn't that be interesting.
She's profited from it, she's no activist
You need more qualifications to be a server than a senator
I can't with these old guys 🤦😄
I wish republicans and democrats could actually get along like this for every cause.
Problem is they usually don't want to fix things that are broken in the system because so many of them are bought and FF by the powers that be.
If they do break up the ticket master monopoly I hope they chant: you are never ever ever getting back together.
Don't bother with modern Pop music, but I agree: STOP MONOPOLIZATION!
the impact of this woman!!!♥
I don't remember how long ago but it happened to Adle concert in Vages. She ended up buying the tickets for her fans. I do remember the dread when this merger happened
This is unimaginable levels of cringe. It's sad enough politicians barely do their job but to see & hear them pander by using Taylor Swift lyrics worked into their argument instead of discussing an issue that seriously priced gouged thousands of people is ridiculously embarrassing.
if it works, it works, honestly. i'm prepared to suffer through it if it breaks up a monopoly.
Ticketmaster made excuses.
I dont know these people but I just love this.
I can't imagine the what if where Marsha was on that panel lmao
She would be seething with rage.
The corporatocracy of America, TicketMaster is a success story. Take as much money from consumers as possible.
As many big companies, and not only in America
Yes! Please find a way to break up this monopoly!
The bots were us. We wanted to drive demand up from the tickets. We wanted to gouge you!
If only this had been over Ice Cube tickets.
🤣😂😅😄😆 OH YES! My favorite lyric... FTP!
🤣🤣🤣
This is such a RUclips moment
The damage is already done. There will be no turning back Ticketmaster/live nation merge.
Then there'll be no one at concerts 🤷
And no more concerts because of inflation, artists and bands are cancelling their tours because of the costs, and if Live Nation and Ticketmaster keep on doing their dirty business, there won't be any more venues at all
the gov't should never have let these 2 companies merge.
Yeah Clyde Lawrence!!!! Rip them a new one!!
Not a fan of Lee, but I got to admit I kinda loved this.
Now to quote “Think About It” by flight of the concords: what are your overheads??
Shameless Republicans don't have any right to use Taylor Swift's words!
That photographer is definitely a swifty
Taylor swift fan here
Supply and demand. Where was the senate when they did this with the PS5. Or the first 1 chip challenge. You cant tell people how much they can or cant sell anything for
hey, i know that you’re only a tween, but please remember that ticketmaster and live nation were only allowed to merge if they helped to grow the sector and not use anti-competitive tactics. they broke that agreement.
Our tax dollars hard at work.. I think I’m gonna stop paying
Hahahahaha
Now, we talking comedians
Taylor swift doing more for politics than republican party lol
Goonies lol 🎉
They’re so feral and goblincore for knowing these lyrics 😂😂😂😂😂
If you listen to Taylor swift, drop the toaster in the bathtub
SO TRUE BESTIE!!!!!!!!!!
shame on you
You mean Ticket Master ? 🎟️
Cringe
So tacky
Now break up alphabet
Iv never heard one of her songs
I'd like to see them go after NIKE for the same thing. I can't ever buy the shoes my kid wants
Wait for stores like Decathlon 🇨🇵👟🛍️🏬 to come in your country, and you'll find cheaper alternatives with decent quality that will also spare you from trouble from people who want to rob your sports shoes and clothes
So cringey watching old people try to be relatable
Hey it's for a good reason so I'm here for it
I enjoyed it. I thought the older folks were funny.😂
Not cringey if it's for something bettee..
