Love her so much but that mic has a reverb effect so it sounds better, she's an amazing songwriter but as a singer she's not that good and it's not hate I'm just being realistic
@@ratatat12356 "It's not about how a beautiful a swordsman's blade is. It's about how he wields it" Success comes to those who worked hard. Keeping herself in the limelight for over a century proves her hardwork and artistry. Those things you mentioned weren't the reasons 33 million Swifties follows her. It's was how she gave us songs which we can relate to.

@@AllTheArtsy ... the base tempo doesn't change, but it does become more subdivided. The kick drum goes to 4 in the bar fairly early for the first pickup in feel. The guitar then picks up via the dotted eighth-note echoes toward the end. Nothing gets faster, though.
I agree. Her voice has gotten smoother, deeper, and even raspier. Her control is very good considering she isn’t really a singer nor has a great voice. Her range is very limited, but she seems less strained in recent years. She works with what she has and honed it in.
because the song is about nothing in particular. it does not have the usual elements of pop/ heartbreak/ fancy bridges/ sassy lines that become easy to hum along or relate to. this song is more "sit in the dark by yourself and let the song envelope you" type. which makes it underrated.
It just dawned on me that the “they see right through me / can you see right through me?” lyric parallels so well with the delicate music video, where Taylor is literally invisible until the very end when the person she loves sees her.
i find it so meaningful when she sings "they see right through me" and then "I see right through me" like.. the swift of the point of view is showing that she is so vulnerable that even she can see through herself
I know most of the “you” in her songs are Joe, BUT- as a Swiftie I like to think that in The Archer, as well as mirrorball, that she is talking to her fans. We could stay, because we DID stay.
Because her life is eventful... Especially 2016, that's literally the autobiography of Reputation. While if I was a songwriter I could only write how I'm just in bed this whole quarantine
That i know This was rhetorical question like, if a tree fell in a forest and nobody’s around to hear it does it make a sound? I know shes talented And REP I believe, she also needed to vent, it was a horrible year for her ,(the worst so far) When the full call was leaked,at the end who else heard Kanye say. ‘I hope we got that’ ‘ and ‘we needed that on the. 3 cameras) I think he targeted her from day one
nhm 1xo Paul has been Taylor’s guitarist since the beginning of her career. Same goes with Amos but he plays the Bass. I really miss Grant Michelson though. Him and Paul made a great duo
I’d much rather hear Taylor sing like this than with pop production. This is subtle, moving and magnificent. The small changes in her face and expressions are just so moving. She’s living the lyrics when she sings them. I just love her so much. She has a beautiful soul.
This one is so vulnerable. I love how she opens up and shows us that sometimes she's in the wrong as well. This song and Afterglow both seem very self-reflective about not always being in the right.
Changing the subject, I think u are saying is after we know a person, it's possible the disappointment comes "'Cause all of my enemies started out friends"
Singing is about how much do you put on it, is about telling stories, is about set free all those feeling inside of you, contact with your "inner me", singing is a way to go to other spiritual plane and be the best version of yourself couse everytime you get better with your voice you get better in your life, reach high notes it's just a bonus, at least that how I do perceive singing
Every Taylor Swift song had almost 4 different versions. She not afraid to alter and play with songs during different performances, it makes each experience unique.
I don't know who says that Taylor is not a good singer. I mean she slays each and every live performance. Her voice soothes our mind. What else do u want?
The generations that grew up with Whitney and Mariah and Ariana and Demi think you have to go high or have a power moment I think but it’s just not the case. However, all the women above are phenomenal but a performance like this can be even more powerful. It’s about connection.
she's in the best place she has ever been, she looks amazing, her voice is flawless, she's dating the love of her live and her new album is a success! 💕
The lyric "all of my heroes die all alone," is pretty incredible because we see so many artists who end up exactly that way - tragic ends with no one who loved them enough to care about them beyond their angst, downfalls, celebrity, talent, or money.
When She started singing „cause they see right through me” I had goosebumps. She’s so True and emotional, people may still say that She don’t have strong voice but for me She’s has something more special than only good voice.
Literally one of the best songs she's ever written. Simple yet so vulnerable with lyrics that hit you hard. I always have a lump in my throat when I listen to it.
Combat, I'm ready for combat I say I don't want that, but what if I do? 'Cause cruelty wins in the movies I've got a hundred thrown-out speeches I almost said to you Easy they come, easy they go I jump from the train, I ride off alone I never grew up, it's getting so old Help me hold onto you I've been the archer I've been the prey Who could ever leave me, darling? But who could stay? Dark side, I search for your dark side But what if I'm alright, right, right, right here? And I cut off my nose just to spite my face Then I hate my reflection for years and years I wake in the night, I pace like a ghost The room is on fire, invisible smoke And all of my heroes die all alone Help me hold onto you I've been the archer, I've been the prey Screaming, who could ever leave me, darling? But who could stay? (I see right through me, I see right through me) 'Cause they see right through me They see right through me They see right through Can you see right through me?

and then ppl keep saying that she aint talented and that she doesn’t deserve the fame she has. i wish they stopped being jealous and accept how talented she is. she was born to be the artist of the century.
I honestly don’t think so, I believe it’s a metaphorical take on Cupid; she’s been a prey to love (so she fell victim to Cupid’s arrow) but also the archer, meaning the one shooting arrows and impacting others
I've never cared much for her.. But, this girl, DESERVES, every accolade she gets. She is such an amazing songwriter.. And that voice.. I've, NEVER, seen/ heard, anyone, like her. EVER. I mean.. This young woman, she will, LIVE and DIE, an ICON. LEGEND. Unbelievable talent. No one is even close too her lane. No one.
Your right. I've just recently started to listen to her albums. I knew most of her songs from the radio. Didn't realize her whole album is awesome. Other singers might have a few good songs on their albums then just fillers. But Taylor goes all out on every song, her voice and lyrics, can't find one boring song anywhere. Ordered Reputation and 1989, can't wait to listen to those. Friends at work are big fans, I guess I will be one too. Amazing talent and lots more to come, she is still very young.
@@savvymegs675She never releases her best songs as singles I think it’s on purpose because her fans me included lol KNOW to listen to the album for the best given I love all of her songs but it’s true
This is the definition of underrated :( this song feels speaks to me like that first glance in the mirror when you wake up after having such a terrible night or not even being able to sleep at all because you’ve been haunted by your mistakes in the past over and over again. You see you and it’s not even really the you you know.
There are those moments in life when you are just pulled in and transfixed on a singular thing. Nothing can draw your attention away. This is one of those moments. A truly deep and moving song only Taylor could deliver in such a way. I'm a 46 year old metalhead and I love this woman's music... and I love watching her live performances most of all. You can see the subtle and not so subtle changes in her attitude and the look on her face and tell she's really feeling what she's saying. She truly loves her fans and shows it
I love how unique her voice is. I mean you listen to any song of her and you instantly recognize it Taylor's. Such an amazing beautiful voice she has!! She's gifted❤
I remember when this came out and I just cried, I dropped my phone and cried so hard at how relatable and beautiful this was. I still can’t believe how talented Taylor is in her songwriting and live vocals like it’s unbelievable. I love The Archer so much.
When I first heard this song, I thought the production was missing something because it never sped up... but gradually its mellowness and lyricism portraying anxiety has made it one of her best songs to me
The Archer is one of my favorite song since day one. and being able to say that I heard her sing this live in the eras tour means soooo much to me. I'm literally still trying to recover from that amazing experience. one of the best days of my life. I LITERALLY HAD THE BEST DAY WITH TAYLOR APRIL 22nd IN HOUSTON
Excited for the re-recording and re-release of her past albums!!! Now that her voice has matured beautifully, I can't imagine how she will sound when she reaches her prime in her mid-30s. ❤❤❤
i just bawled my eyes out. its been a few weeks since ive listened to this song and the past weeks have been rough. and this shit just hit me right in the feels.
“cause all of my enemies started out friends” i felt that
Me too - one of the worst feelings in the world ...

Born beautiful, born tall, born able to sing, born into a wealthy family.

such a good description
I agree. Her voice has gotten smoother, deeper, and even raspier. Her control is very good considering she isn’t really a singer nor has a great voice. Her range is very limited, but she seems less strained in recent years. She works with what she has and honed it in.
This song is all auto tone.
@@ElyWill limited range? Really? O.O LOL OK
Why is The Archer so underrated? It's one of the favs from Lover

Mine too!
Cruel Summer is a work of art
@@shalakaj523 Right? And even if there are no sassy lines, "all of my enemies started out friends" haunts me still.
RIGHT!! same
It just dawned on me that the “they see right through me / can you see right through me?” lyric parallels so well with the delicate music video, where Taylor is literally invisible until the very end when the person she loves sees her.
It's been over a year and I still keep finding new things. That's Ms. Swift for ya.
omg wow i never picked up on that, brilliant
I like how she hides her face when sings that, and then looks at her hands in disbelief
i find it so meaningful when she sings "they see right through me" and then "I see right through me" like.. the swift of the point of view is showing that she is so vulnerable that even she can see through herself
You are right ! I love this song ❤
It's like Jack Antonoff and Taylor just slapped us in the face with sad metaphors
Isnt jack antonoff the drummer from the band "fun"
He was the guitarist but close
Listen to folklore and evermore 😂
She's done several lyrics with him, since RED I think
@@lourdeshernandez4117 wait... Jack Antonoff worked in RED????.... i dont think so. He started working from 1989

The small changes in her face and expressions are just so moving. She’s living the lyrics when she sings them. I just love her so much. She has a beautiful soul.
Yes, she's doing it now. Folklore and Evermore suits her songwriting skills and vocal range
I like this version too, damn they hit the emotion really good
oh absolutely!
Yeah in every department she shines for, this happens to be where l like best. Where you can feel the molecular vibration of her soul.
When Taylor can't come to London to be a guest that's why BBC itself went to New York. 💁
Yup, that’s how we work with t swift, sorry, the queen.
Legit ba to? Skskksks
Is that in NY ?
Is the background real?
mi so I’m not sure but I think it’s not
This one is so vulnerable. I love how she opens up and shows us that sometimes she's in the wrong as well. This song and Afterglow both seem very self-reflective about not always being in the right.
The clarity in her voice is just so beautiful. I love that we can feel what she's felt.
yeaa very mature lady like.

It's funny how people think that singing is about hitting high notes
Not to mention that Taylor's high note also is fabulous
Changing the subject, I think u are saying is after we know a person, it's possible the disappointment comes
"'Cause all of my enemies started out friends"

Locals only
the shade, hahahahahhahahha, yuh
“The room is on fire, invisible smoke” that line shows you exactly what its like to have anxiety. Always fearing things that aren’t there.
"i never grew up, it's getting so old" omg her emotion 😭
I prefer this than the album version. It's more raw and has less of that synth and echo effect.
Mark Goodboy My thoughts exactly! Love the studio version but after hearing this, it would’ve been so much better without the audio filter effect
Couldnt agree more to you.
Yes
Exactly! I like the lyrics but not the production of the original. This sounds more beautiful imo
Every Taylor Swift song had almost 4 different versions. She not afraid to alter and play with songs during different performances, it makes each experience unique.

Taylor can sing. She has a beautiful, soothing voice and whenever I listen to her it really calms me.
Everytime I hear this song, tear just come out from my eyes automatically.
These live lounge performances are some of taylor’s best live performances. Simply beautiful.

she sings so well live so flawlessly :')
I was so moved by this performance. Taylor is truly one of a kind!
discovered this song way too late, but i'm so glad i did.
I JUST NOW pieced together that this song must have been inspired by her being a Sagittarius.......Symbol is a centaur with a bow and arrow. Wow.
I honestly don’t think so, I believe it’s a metaphorical take on Cupid; she’s been a prey to love (so she fell victim to Cupid’s arrow) but also the archer, meaning the one shooting arrows and impacting others
@Jennifer Marques Fernandes same!
@@Cocolagaffe18 Definitely a Sagittarius thing! I am a sag and me and plenty of other Sags IMMEDIATELY picked up on the zodiac reference!
@@Cocolagaffe18 agreed. I took it as meaning that she’s been a victim as well as a persecutor.
Seems like both interpretations of Cupid and zodiac hold merit
She really feels every single lyric of it. Masterpiece!!!

You can see the subtle and not so subtle changes in her attitude and the look on her face and tell she's really feeling what she's saying. She truly loves her fans and shows it
My favorite lyric from this song is, “I jump from the train, I ride off alone.” It really hits me everytime.
I love how unique her voice is. I mean you listen to any song of her and you instantly recognize it Taylor's. Such an amazing beautiful voice she has!! She's gifted❤
I remember when this came out and I just cried, I dropped my phone and cried so hard at how relatable and beautiful this was. I still can’t believe how talented Taylor is in her songwriting and live vocals like it’s unbelievable. I love The Archer so much.
When I first heard this song, I thought the production was missing something because it never sped up... but gradually its mellowness and lyricism portraying anxiety has made it one of her best songs to me
magic in the form of audio right there
The archer is one of my favorite songs. It cuts like a knife.
She is what this world exactly needs!💜
"Cause all of my enemies started out friends"
Soo painfully true.
How is it possible for a species I share with to be so...flawless?
Money, money after money. And you can be flawless too.
Her voice is absolutely smooth and gorgeous, and no one can deny how much craft she puts in each and every lyrics
This just gives me chills. The music, her voice, the lyrics… oh the lyrics. Very relatable. Love Taylor xx
One of her best live performance EVER! Every part she sang was so breathtaking and gorgeous
This song is so subtle yet lyrically powerful . This is my favorite song out of her whole catalog ❤
I literally cried with this live version, so emotionally charged...my favorite song from the album
I had goosebumps the entire song, the reverberations were so beautiful
Man, i died and now I'm in heaven
THE WAY THE END IS JUST QUIET GETS ME EVERY SINGLE TIME.
The Archer is one of my favorite song since day one. and being able to say that I heard her sing this live in the eras tour means soooo much to me. I'm literally still trying to recover from that amazing experience. one of the best days of my life. I LITERALLY HAD THE BEST DAY WITH TAYLOR APRIL 22nd IN HOUSTON
She has become comfortable singing any where any how, may be her 12 years experience has played spell on her
13 years
Excited for the re-recording and re-release of her past albums!!! Now that her voice has matured beautifully, I can't imagine how she will sound when she reaches her prime in her mid-30s. ❤❤❤
whenever i listen this song i always cry because of the lyrics and the atmosphere it's just she's so strong i'm so proud of her
i just bawled my eyes out. its been a few weeks since ive listened to this song and the past weeks have been rough. and this shit just hit me right in the feels.
I have shivers all over my body first few seconds into this...HER POWER
Her voice is soo soft, I felt like I was in a dream!! TALENT
