dude same literal shivers. every 5 seconds a black person dies because their mother had too many babies. what's that like 9 billion babies?! wow time flies.
I came in here thinking this was going to be a bad attempt to turn Taylor Swift into Punk Rock but it was actually sick af and definitely one of the best covers I've heard of any song ever so keep it up this was really cool!
The dynamic between Brian and Eric (singing and screaming vocalists respectively) always reminded me of Chester Bennington and Mike Shinoda from Linkin Park.
@@MORGames117 The dynamic between singing and screaming, the deep lyrics, the heavy drops to the calm verses etc. My first track was Scars (before it got viral on fb) and it has everything!

I heard this version first then heard the original playing in a store years later. I was genuinely confused that Taylor Swift was covering a metal song.
Has it really been 7 years since this gem was posted? I heard this on twitch and thought it was a joke 7 years ago but then found it and thought, this is better than the original. Glad this band is successful. I hope they’re healthy. As always praying for everyone.
@Matt jackson definition: guttural. Guttural describes a hoarse sound made in the back of the throat. Your friend's voice might get low and guttural just before he bursts into tears. Growls and cries are often described as guttural. The Latin word guttur, "throat or gullet," is the root of guttural. Guttural is just a fancy word for growls, or unclean vocals. In the process of using gutteral vocals/unclean/growl the singer uses the diaphragm which is an organ close to your lungs and gut, this allows the singer to grow or sing the vocals longer and with more power without damaging their vocal cords. Not to mention gutteral means throat in Latin. I choose the word gutteral singing because its actually a described singing form in metal, if you say growl, people who don't listen to metal will literally think they go rawr, or thing unclean is just raspy singing. Are you on crystal meth?
When I first found this, it was 4 years ago, it was the first metal song I've ever liked. Now I'm literally obsessed and I Prevail is still my favorite band.
IKR! omg, its the same thing in Slipknot - Snuff When he says "I still press your letters to my lips, and cherish them in parts of me, that savor every kiss" its great XD I mean, the whole song and band is amazing anyways but still
This video can be a perfect example of perspectives. There are those who love punk, rock, metal, or something similar that will all say that this version is better. But the there are the Taylor Swift fans that see this as an attack on her and her music. None of that matters. What matters is that it is a good song. Just like all good songs, there will be some different version than the original studio recoding. Find the one that fits your style and then be happy. Music should be about fun or emotions. Never should music be made a tool of politics racial or sexual conflicts. Find ur version and have fun to the 10k people who disliked the video
I'm a Swift fan that loves both versions. This is heavier, more emotional/serious, and her version is just fun and sassy. Its like trying to compare comedy and drama.
It's amazing how much more this adds to the song. Sure, when first listening to the original song, you get a story about a girl that people consider "insane". But listening to this, I get so many more versions of the story because it adds so many new meanings.
This song is the entire reason I started listening to I Prevail's music & after seeing them in concert almost 10 times in the last 5 years in 3 different states, they still surprise me at every show & put on probably THE SINGLE best performance that I have ever seen. i Prevail is literally the #GOAT
This has me laughing my ass off. Everyone always used to look at metalheads and think we are all hardasses. This shit is what we are about, clowning around.
@@WisdomComesWithWinter I love how metal nerds think every song that doesnt involve screaming and distorted guitars is a "shitty pop song".. It´s not like 99% of Pop Goes Punk covers are just original vocal melody with added screams and guitars... Wonder why those bands never make hits with hundreds of millions of streams? Everyone can write several interesting metalcore riffs, but very few people can actually come up with catchy chorus.. Mainstream audience (outside of metal nerds who still think guitar is the most important part of the songwriting) consider the vocal melody as the crucial part of whetever they like the song
@@WisdomComesWithWinter As much as I like rock and everything I beg to differ, there are PLENTY of musicians in other genres who can be just as, if not more, emotional than metal ^^"
So many of these bands that blow up from metal covers of pop songs either die out and never make it big, or they spend their whole career doing more covers like their first one. You guys are awesome for using this to forge your own path and make your own identity with original music.
I've heard fan mixes with both versions, but what do we have to do to get Taylor Swift to actually re-record this song with the I Prevail guys and make a video. I'd pay good money for that
I love the whole idea of turning pop music into punk/rock/metal. Shows they mean something to different audiences, and I may have heard some of this in nightclubs. I think you guys are great! :)
Holy shit I've never seen a.n.y Artist reply to a fan's comment...Even if it's someone who's job is to do PR stuff from outside the band it's still awesome to actually see a legit reply...Pretty f'n cool :] Oh!!&you guys totally killed it in this song.xo-sb
Jason Ross Probably cause Attack Attack was already pretty big and Caleb Shomo was pretty big too plus they got signed to Red Bull records. and the other members were already from other bands, so they got signed pretty fast.
Man what a journey it has been the last 7 years listening to these guys. From learning about them through this song to repeating Scars at work to the drop of Bow Down and having to stop in the middle of a delivery to watch the music video. And with true power coming out this year I just had to see them live. Their performance this weekend in Denver was awesome. Best concert I have ever been to
Wild, I remember 6 or so years back this band, still relatively unknown, buying up all the Facebook add space & this cover kept popping up on my feed. After seeing it a thousand times, decided to give it a shot & was very impressed. Fast forward to now & there one of the biggest metalcore bands in the game right now, & there newest album slaps!
I generally don't listen to this genre of music, but I LOVED this! I love the original Blank Space and I thought this was an awesome cover. I like how different it is from the original. Plus the singer has an amazing voice!! ☺☺
It's insane thinking about it. I remember jamming this and Love, Lust, And Liars when they first released them, now they're headliners. So happy for y'all!
даже на русском не смогу выразить чувства, которые переполняют при прослушивании песни именно в вашем исполнении, а на английском даже пытаться не буду)) Очень круто, ребят! Я в восторге!
mes66 well its more tha how good he is at it, its nore of the way he sounds its alot like ADTR and thats my favorite band so its probly why i like it so much but its just the way his vocie sounds
ive recently listened to a lot of rap and left rock in the dust but this band will always have a special place in my heart even if it is 10 years later
7 years and 1 day after and this still hits!! Love hearing this and comparing it to their latest album and just seeing how much their confidence has soared! Great band then, phenomenal band now!
I was 20 years old about to turn 21 and in my 5th semester of University when they released this...I can't believe how fast time has passed by. The core memories are hitting hard right now
it was in flames who introduced me to this kind of music back in 2001, when my friend told me to come with him to a concert with them xD boy am i happy i wanted to try something new at that time
Taylor Swift: *sings this* Me: *mildly creeped out but otherwise meh* I Prevail: *sings this* Me (a guy): *genuinely shook, kinda scared, and also weirdly turned on*
Heinrich Aguila lmao those are different types of metal. Go learn your genres. Rock is a large genre that metal falls under and the band's you listed fall under metal. But so does I prevail. It's different types of metal but it's metal. Get over it
This is probably the best thing that I have ever listened to. I love this. I love the singing, guitars, drums, everything. I can't stop listening to this. My dad showed me this, and I thought I would listen to it again on my tablet. I did, and I can't stop. It's all so amazing. You guys got a new subscriber. I live in southeast Michigan too, and I think it's kinda crazy to know one of my (new) favorite bands live near where I live. I hope you guys will keep this going for a long time. I love what you're doing and everything about it. Keep it up guys, you rock.
IPrevailBand thank you so much for being who you are and being so awesome. You guys really are amazing. More people really need to see you guys. You're amazing.
+Rasetsu my comment was suppose to be a joke -_- the joke was that people who say they don't like I Prevail are liars cause this band is really good. I didn't mean they're actual liars, i meant that this band is too good to be hated smh.
I've loved this song since my Punk Goes Pop loving ex played it for me when it came out. A decade later, I still play it for people who haven't heard it before and savor the surprised "holy s*it, this is amazing" look on their face. I swear, this song was only written so y'all could cover it.
My Grandmother hates this type of music. I cant even start to explain how it's so amazing. A lot of people don't appreciate actual music, like this. She hates how they scream instead of sing, but the meaning to this is so much more than how they just sing it. It's such a deep meaning when heavy metal musicians make deep and twisted music.
Alittle screaming is fine death metal i cant listen to that shit like bullet for my valentines old stuff disturbed and as hard as this is my threshold of rock ill listen to
I can’t believe I’ve been listening to you guys for over a decade. Scars and lifeline are still my favorites today because of how much these songs got me through. Gotta say though, the fact these guys took Taylor swift and turned it into something I could listen to was a nice part of what made me same tune in.
I first heard this song on the radio in Dayton, Ohio and I just had to look it up when I got home. I really hope these guys get big, they deserve it. You got my support!
I love what punk goes pop does. Now we can enjoy all the catchy music everyone else listens to without the stigma of saying were listening to taylor swift.
I’ve always hated the stigma around guys liking Taylor Swifts music. People think that if your a guy who likes Taylor’s music that you automatically have to be gay. Why? You can absolutely be straight and love Taylor’s music. Growing up, I always loved her singles but never bought her albums because of that stigma. Now, as an adult, I don’t give a shit if people think I’m gay for loving her music. I own most of her albums now. Taylor is an amazing songwriter. Her singles don’t reflect how great she actually is. Nobody can listen to the Folklore and Evermore albums and say that she’s not a great song writer. She’s been writing great shit since she came out with her first album. At the end of the day, music is just music. If you like it, go ahead and enjoy it. Fuck what others think about it.
Friends: Hey, do you listen to any songs that I know? Me:.... Oh yeah, I listen toTailor Swift and a lot of more songs that you like. Friends: great! Now we can talk about the same kind of music, I thought you only listen to rock and stuff. Me: Well.....
I discovered them when they released Trauma. Amazing album. I didn't even know they did punk goes pop. This is amazing! It sounds like it's not a cover
Years later, after rock and metal covers of pop songs has become quite popular and there are a lot of very good covers, I still think this is the best, partly because you were willing to change the style so much and completely change a part or two and the words where you should. Fantastic cover.
The Metal version sort of adds a second perspective to it, Not some pop sort of fan girl song but a sort of more serious take on it. Hard to explain but i love it.
+theTwoFacedAngel in the twin cities there is 93X for some odd reason I heard this song on the radio before it blew up I was like wtf is this then Taylor did a cover of this
@@MyCh3micalHaruhi Try listening to other bands if you like I Prevail, I recommend Pierce The Veil, Sleeping With Sirens, Of Mice & Men and Ice Nine Kills

ive recently listened to a lot of rap and left rock in the dust but this band will always have a special place in my heart even if it is 10 years later
it be 2020 and y’all still giving me chills
First time I have heard this cover I have listened to it over and over 12x soooo amazing #2020
This is being played at my sisters wedding 👰
Really this gives you chills?
Marley Dees from head to toes yes...
@@mikeangel7976 y
when he said "darling I'm a nightmare dressed like a daydream" I screamed.
7 years and 1 day after and this still hits!! Love hearing this and comparing it to their latest album and just seeing how much their confidence has soared! Great band then, phenomenal band now!
7 years and 8 days later it still hits!
The song that started my love for this band. Can't wait to see you guys live on the 22nd of March.
*screams like a demon “starbucks lovers”
Yes 😂
My brother said that
Lmaooo
star crossed not starbucks
@@sgtmonkeypirate ex-lovers* it goes. Got a long list of ex-lovers* if youre gonna correct someone, correct them correctly.
You guys should come do a concert in missouri @IPrevailBand I love you guys!
We'll be in KC Tuesday Emily :) iprevailband.com

Arvest Bank Theatre at the Midland..maybe we'll see you tomorrow?
I can't go this time, but maybe i can come see you guys another time
sigh emily
If slipknot cuddled with simple plan...aggressively
While papa roach watched from the corner of the room....
What visuals running thru my mind
I love this comment
More like hate fucking...
lmfao this comment wins
I was 20 years old about to turn 21 and in my 5th semester of University when they released this...I can't believe how fast time has passed by. The core memories are hitting hard right now
this cover is better than the original imho. but that's just because i love this kind of music xD
XD Same here. This is my favorite music style
it was in flames who introduced me to this kind of music back in 2001, when my friend told me to come with him to a concert with them xD boy am i happy i wanted to try something new at that time
jonas hansen Same, the original is ass compared to this lol
Dude shit is always better when Punk Goes Pop :3
jonas hansen Samme.. The original sucks but this is AMAZING!
Taylor Swift: *sings this*
Me: *mildly creeped out but otherwise meh*
I Prevail: *sings this*
Me (a guy): *genuinely shook, kinda scared, and also weirdly turned on*
Perhaps you have a gay side?😏
Me too bud
Me too
Your not wrong lol
LET BE TURNED ON TOGETHER XD
Download our cover of Taylor Swift's "Blank Space" here! - smarturl.it/IPrevailBlankSpace
Android. Meaning, I can't use iGoons.
Royce Barber its on google play music. used my credits from opinion rewards to download it today
Royce Barber, if you have Google Play Music All Access, it's on there ready to add to your library :D
I would totally get it if it was put on Amazon. Just got the album!
Get a BANDCAMP going!!! I am not supporting anything apple. Apple get most of the cut from igoons sales.
One of the GREATEST covers EVER!!
But do you know Devildriver has a cover of Sail.
No I do not! I will have to check that out! Is it new?@@ditzy_neko3362
Amen 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
every thing sounds better in metal
BMX PERFECT 4-LIFE so trueee
BMX PERFECT 4-LIFE i love the pop goes punk covers!
Merissa Erickson be careful. He labeled this as metal so he's probably one of those types that get offended when pop goes punk is brought up
Heinrich Aguila lmao those are different types of metal. Go learn your genres. Rock is a large genre that metal falls under and the band's you listed fall under metal. But so does I prevail. It's different types of metal but it's metal. Get over it
Go check out Leo Moracchioli, RUclips channel Frog Leap Studios. He is fucking AWESOME!!
Warning:..THIS NEEDS TO PLAYED AT HIGH VOLUMES!
mikemesker1 I have this full volume 🤣
got that right
This is probably the best thing that I have ever listened to. I love this. I love the singing, guitars, drums, everything. I can't stop listening to this. My dad showed me this, and I thought I would listen to it again on my tablet. I did, and I can't stop. It's all so amazing. You guys got a new subscriber. I live in southeast Michigan too, and I think it's kinda crazy to know one of my (new) favorite bands live near where I live. I hope you guys will keep this going for a long time. I love what you're doing and everything about it. Keep it up guys, you rock.
Maddie The Pirate Wolf Thank you so much for all your suport Maddie :)
IPrevailBand thank you so much for being who you are and being so awesome. You guys really are amazing. More people really need to see you guys. You're amazing.
Maddie The Pirate Wolf Your awesome!!
IPrevailBand You guys are better, forever and always! No band or person on this planet can replace you!
Your dad is amazing
Honestly one of my favorites covers of a modern song. I love it guys. Doing Metro Detroit proud!
When your with you homies singing along to a Taylor swift song lmfaoooo
LMAO
the only acceptable way
There are two types of people. Ones who love IPrevail and liars.
People can like other type of music and not be liars....
+Rasetsu my comment was suppose to be a joke -_- the joke was that people who say they don't like I Prevail are liars cause this band is really good. I didn't mean they're actual liars, i meant that this band is too good to be hated smh.
...would laugh if it was funny. Sorry for the misunderstanding though. :P
+Rasetsu its alright. Anyone would of misunderstood it.
+Lisa Way I got it when i read it xDD
way better than the original
- ItzSoldiier post hardcore dumbass
Erik uchiha22 fuck up dude and just enjoy it
Deam right
GARBAGE 🚮
The Reaper you're fucking tough bud
I've loved this song since my Punk Goes Pop loving ex played it for me when it came out. A decade later, I still play it for people who haven't heard it before and savor the surprised "holy s*it, this is amazing" look on their face.
I swear, this song was only written so y'all could cover it.
My little sister is a huge Taylor swift fan and each time I put this on her face is priceless
Lol!
+Christian Leyva Omigod yes
My older sister loves pop music but she got amazed with this cover ;-). Keep a good music guys!
I seriously can't stop listen to this! I love it!
THANK YOU! Hope you feel the same about our new album..what did you think? smarturl.it/iplifelines
IPrevailBand
amazing!!!!!!! blew a speaker in my car listening to you guys haha
My Grandmother hates this type of music. I cant even start to explain how it's so amazing. A lot of people don't appreciate actual music, like this. She hates how they scream instead of sing, but the meaning to this is so much more than how they just sing it. It's such a deep meaning when heavy metal musicians make deep and twisted music.
What about them screams deep?
@@kaygon.5202 she just hates how they "scream" instead of sing.
Alittle screaming is fine death metal i cant listen to that shit like bullet for my valentines old stuff disturbed and as hard as this is my threshold of rock ill listen to
I can’t believe I’ve been listening to you guys for over a decade. Scars and lifeline are still my favorites today because of how much these songs got me through. Gotta say though, the fact these guys took Taylor swift and turned it into something I could listen to was a nice part of what made me same tune in.
I first heard this song on the radio in Dayton, Ohio and I just had to look it up when I got home. I really hope these guys get big, they deserve it. You got my support!
+Darin Ernst You have no idea how much that means, thanks Darin!
+IPrevailBand well you guys have a lot of talent and you deserve the credit and recognition! Hopefully I'll see you down here someday soon!
+Darin Ernst Heck yeah played several OH shows this year...can't wait to get back in 2016 :D
+IPrevailBand You should try to go to Rock on The Range. You'd get a lot more fans because I know for a fact a lot of people would like you there
Honestly every single ADTR and LP fan will like these guys - I prevail rocks
curiousgeorgieo saw ADTR/papa roach In concert. These guys are better than adtr. Papa roach just has experience on them
These guys are great. But adtr is still bae
sorry to tell you but they´re not even close to be as good as adtr ;)
The piano starting sounds so LP . I like both versions
I fkng agree with u bro
I bet Taylor Swift jams this version on her way to work everyday
I know I do!!
Keith Shirley
Work where though? 😂
With her version, she be like, what was I thinking
Keith Shirley I love your comment LOL the joke is that Taylor Swift has ever actually worked for a penny in her life. You sir are my hero
Keith Shirley yas
I occasionally come back to this cover, as it's one of my favourites 🥰 And now I'm seeing Taylor next year's, I felt it was fitting to come back ❤️
This shi to fire 🔥
Taylor swift did a cover of I Prevail's Blank Space?
@@davidstevens23 Ha Ha Ha
I was speechless, this is the best cover I've heard in my life🖤
Moxie Raven something like that 😂
Jordan Haynes hi b no km I'm, n
Jordan Joon YASSS, ANOTHER ARMY THAT LIKES THIS GENRE OF MUSIC. UGH. 😂👏
this is the only way I would listen to this song and you make this song worth listening to. I love this version
+Isaak Vanlandingham Pumped ya dig it...be sure to check out our debut EP here for more of our music :D smarturl.it/IPrevailMusic
I will gladly do that
+Isaak Vanlandingham Thanks hope you enjoyed it!!
+IPrevailBand I enjoyed it a lot
+Isaak Vanlandingham
agree!
Metalcore works so well with the lyrics, you have to confess...
This song was born to have a metalcore cover. I agree with you.
To me, many pop songs will do so.
CornWallace this sounds nothing like hardcore...
***** Metalcore? As I Lay Dying is an example of metalcore, this band, while good, is not.
***** Give us a listen. We covered "uptown funk". Check it out on our channel.
10 years later holy shit. I'm so proud of you guys
2:04
My favorite freaking part great song guys
ROS King same!!
2:46 my favorite part
3:16 is mine
I love what punk goes pop does. Now we can enjoy all the catchy music everyone else listens to without the stigma of saying were listening to taylor swift.
yessss!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
lmao exactly
Derrick Wiedemann it doesnt matter whom we listened too
Idk why people tell others not to listen to taylor swift
I’ve always hated the stigma around guys liking Taylor Swifts music. People think that if your a guy who likes Taylor’s music that you automatically have to be gay. Why? You can absolutely be straight and love Taylor’s music. Growing up, I always loved her singles but never bought her albums because of that stigma. Now, as an adult, I don’t give a shit if people think I’m gay for loving her music. I own most of her albums now. Taylor is an amazing songwriter. Her singles don’t reflect how great she actually is. Nobody can listen to the Folklore and Evermore albums and say that she’s not a great song writer. She’s been writing great shit since she came out with her first album. At the end of the day, music is just music. If you like it, go ahead and enjoy it. Fuck what others think about it.
Thought this was gonna be trash....never been more shook in my life
Friends: Hey, do you listen to any songs that I know?
Me:.... Oh yeah, I listen toTailor Swift and a lot of more songs that you like.
Friends: great! Now we can talk about the same kind of music, I thought you only listen to rock and stuff.
Me: Well.....
haha same
😂
haha that made my day
Haha
Taylor*** 😂😂😂
I discovered them when they released Trauma. Amazing album. I didn't even know they did punk goes pop. This is amazing! It sounds like it's not a cover
Come out and join us on our Holiday Run this December!
Check for dates and get tickets here! - iprevailband.com/tour
+IPrevailBand I hear this song at least once a day on q106.1 out of Lansing! the other songs on the album are on point keep up the good work!
Well now I'm excited
+IPrevailBand i was gonna go but the concert in my city is on a monday :'(
+IPrevailBand i really wanted to go but sadly i cant go
+IPrevailBand I'm gonna see that! That show is coming to Minnesota on the 29th, see you there?
Years later, after rock and metal covers of pop songs has become quite popular and there are a lot of very good covers, I still think this is the best, partly because you were willing to change the style so much and completely change a part or two and the words where you should. Fantastic cover.
I actually like those type of covers. I just dislike it if they just literally changed the instruments but they make it their own.
Sorry Swifty fans but IPrevail own this shit love it
Ohhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!! Hear that swifty fans!!! Ohhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!
Damn straight
Yup
Sorry too
But im a Katycat
Wrong the songwriter owns it. But this version is way better
Who prefers this cover over the original
Plot twist: this is the original and Taylor swift made a cover for it
🙋🙋🙋😊👍
WHAT?!?!?!?!
Bad joke both are great
@@taytoosharma7003 yes taylor is amazing
Lol she wrote the song. Yes this cover is amazing but show some respect to her.
The Metal version sort of adds a second perspective to it, Not some pop sort of fan girl song but a sort of more serious take on it. Hard to explain but i love it.
MiseryS I totally agree. From Both sides they sound crazy.
It's because the lyrics didn't fit the happy sound of Taylor Swift and pop in general.
SpiritchaosDX well Blank Space was suppose to be tongue in cheek
The song that started it all. This journey were on with you guys.
I remember seeing this at 2,000 views. Now 20.1 million? Crazy. Local fan, keep doing what you're doing, guys!
same live in warren
+Dakota Orlowski Same here. Heard them on 89X. Let's hear it for Detroit Rock City
+theTwoFacedAngel in the twin cities there is 93X for some odd reason I heard this song on the radio before it blew up I was like wtf is this then Taylor did a cover of this
I actually made a comment to that effect
+Dakota Orlowski Ads on facebook reach quite far :P
Taylor Swift Fans: Ewww too much screaming!!
Me: This is fucking perfect!!
Way better than the original!
F**king awesome!!!!!
Not me its perfect and I'm Taylor swift fan
@@MyCh3micalHaruhi Try listening to other bands if you like I Prevail, I recommend Pierce The Veil, Sleeping With Sirens, Of Mice & Men and Ice Nine Kills
@@LittleDevilLuna Agreed with you there also the "Drowned" part of your username remind me of Ben Drowned
3:16 is such a good build-up.
This song got me into this band.
This and A Static Lullaby - Toxic are great covers
I'm listening to this cover 20 times a day :D It's so damn good and unique. The screaming and clean singing harmonize very well!!!!
+Patrick S. Stoked your enjoying our music Patrick...thanks :D How did you like our debut EP, check it out here if ya haven't had a chance!! smarturl.it/IPrevailMusic
