It isnt a reworking , he handed this and as far as I know, every cut on 1989 already prearranged melodically to Swift and EVERY LYRIC ON THE ALBUM IS MINE
I literally had NO IDEA this was a cover until reading these comments. And having been born and raised on the Ryan Adams version (haha), I could never to the Taylor Swift version. Ryan Adams is so talented and I'm completely obsessed with his voice and the way he strings the lyrics together. It's just so beautiful.
I heard this version and soundhounded it and it came back as Ryan Adan’s. I was trying to play it one night and got called out for being a swiftie. Had never even heard a swift song before. I laughed about it but still play this version, poorly, with no shame. 🤣😂
He's pretty much the king of doing that. Wasted Years is another good one. Wonderwall. The list goes on. Sometimes I feel like he's covering some of his old stuff to put it in a slightly different light nowadays, if that even makes sense.
Crackpot Scientist the great soul singer Bettye Lavette has been doing "covers" like this for decades now, calling them "interpretations" instead. In the late 90s, she released I've Got My Own Hell To Raise, where she covered exclusively female artists---ranging from Dolly Parton to Fiona Apple---albeit in her bluesy, soul style. She eventually released the British Songbook, doing the same for anyone from Led Zeppelin to Pink Floyd to Elton John to not only the Beatles, but a song from each of their solo careers, too!
If you didnt know he covers the whole 1989........i love ryan adams, so i thought, i better check out this album (by taylor) loved it, then bought the ryan adams one, im a big taylor swift fan now......ha ha.
Taylor says her version is tongue in cheek. That is, she isn't really claiming to have a long list of ex-lovers who think she's insane. But with Ryan you get the feeling he's being sincere. Maybe that's why his version Is slow and heartfelt.
It's an age thing really, I would think. When Taylor wrote it, it's tongue in cheek that she could have the long list at such an age. But for Ryan, it is possible so he interprets the song more earnestly. Love both versions. I often listen to his and her versions of the whole 1989 album interspersed. Stellar songs and stellar rearrangements/covers.
@@loadedready even after the Phoebe Bridges es stuff he’s still your fav? He is a damn good song writer Eve tho I hate him. Always heard he was the biggest asshole like in a stuck up way.
I'd love to see Taylor Swift step out on stage and sing this version. Then Ryan Adams come out and start to do her version. Then Taylor Swift's rest of the concert is doing Ryan Adam's catalogue of best songs backed by his band. Then ponies!
New money, suit and tie I can read you like a magazine Ain't it funny, rumors fly? And I know you heard about me So hey, let's be friends Dying to see how this one ends Grab your passport and my hand So it's gonna be forever Or it's gonna go down in flames You can tell me when it's over If the high was worth the pain Got a long list of ex-lovers They'll tell you I'm insane 'Cause you know I love the players And you love the game So goddamn reckless We'll take this way too far It'll leave you breathless Or with a nasty scar Got a long list of ex-lovers They'll tell you I'm insane But I've got a blank space, baby And I'll write your name Cherry lips, crystal skies I could show you incredible things Stolen kisses, pretty lies I'm your king and you're my queen Find out what you want Be that girl for a month Wait, the worst is yet to come Screaming, crying, perfect storms I can make all the tables turn Rose gardens filled with thorns Keep you second-guessing like "Oh my God, who is she?" I get drunk on jealousy But you'll come back each time you leave So it's gonna be forever Or it's gonna go down in flames You can tell me when it's over If the high was worth the pain Got a long list of ex-lovers They'll tell you I'm insane 'Cause you know I love the players And you love the game So goddamn reckless We'll take this way too far It'll leave you breathless Or with a nasty scar Got a long list of ex-lovers They'll tell you I'm insane But I've got a blank space, baby And I'll write your name I'll write your name I'll write your name I'll write your name
I love his version, but gosh i wish he'd adjusted the lyrics just a bit so that he's not referring to himself as she... Just a couple of slight changes... Having said that, Ryan Adams, in the end, really can do no wrong.
This version of ryan adams is so good... And it also shows Taylor's song writing skills
Agreed.
Ryan’s versions was what made me a fan of Taylor’s and made me look at her as a songwriter.
She didn’t write it, I did and DRA arranged it.. she merely bought it from Adams
@@wlgj1341 lol you're funny, this song is written by taylor and max martin, shellback
Taylor and the 10 other song writers
Eva Cassidy, the queen of cover music, once called herself an "interpreter." This is Ryan Adams' interpretation of "Blank Space" and it's beautiful.
Absolutely
Ryan Adams doesn't get enough credit.
He never has gotten enough credit. Multi-faceted talented person.
amen to that. one of the most underrated musicians of our generation.
agreed, he gets so much shit and he's so talented
Ryan would not have it any other way. He is under appreciated. What a badass
I didn't like his stuff for a long time but his sheer longevity is bringing me around.
Hell of a job on this re working of the album... every track a masterpiece
It isnt a reworking , he handed this and as far as I know, every cut on 1989 already prearranged melodically to Swift and EVERY LYRIC ON THE ALBUM IS MINE
@@wlgj1341 huh?
Both versions are magnificent
How was that possible to cover that album like this...he turned all the songs into a masterpiece. Heartbreaking beautiful ❤️
Because they were already masterpieces, maybe?
It must have been that the songs were good to begin with.

Wow. The mark of a truly good cover is a complete transformation of the original, which this achieves. Nice folksy rendition!
He's pretty much the king of doing that. Wasted Years is another good one. Wonderwall. The list goes on. Sometimes I feel like he's covering some of his old stuff to put it in a slightly different light nowadays, if that even makes sense.
+Kyle Dieterich I discovered him through his brilliant covers of Taylor Swift songs. Will listen to Wasted Years!

it makes me believe that Taylor Swift only exclusively writes Sad Bastard Music
If you didnt know he covers the whole 1989........i love ryan adams, so i thought, i better check out this album (by taylor) loved it, then bought the ryan adams one, im a big taylor swift fan now......ha ha.
Gives me chills what a fantastic cover
This version of a great song just leaves you breathless. The Fabulous One!
This guy can do anything wow!

No, she’s making an excuse for not having written it..I wrote it, she got it arranged from Adam’s who got the lyrics from my portfolio
And it’s “ Starbucks lovers”…
Because he is amazing!!!!!
What a beast
wow. just wow....
Quality dude he has got it big time. He can do cover version that become his own.
Wildest Dreams is that way!!!
That shirt reminds me of the rock 'n roll album! :-) Ryan still is and probably will always be my favorite artist!
still with us?
@@Halliday7895 most definitely 😊
@@loadedready even after the Phoebe Bridges es stuff he’s still your fav? He is a damn good song writer Eve tho I hate him. Always heard he was the biggest asshole like in a stuck up way.
Such a funny opener. love it.
I wonder if he really did sleep with Sandra Bullock.
I love this song, awesome lyrics
This guy makes me believe there is hope in music.Very honest and heartfelt, So sad it has little views. The world definitely has changed.
He is so brilliantly brilliant
This is just amazing. Can't understand why people doesn't like this one.
People like it, but not many people know abot it.
incredible tune, great performance, awesome melody.
Although I do love TS. Music put to her lyrics in this way makes you much more able to appreciate them better. She really is VERY talented.
Beautiful man with a beautiful soul #ryanadams☄️
not really. unfortunate i loved him so much and turns out he kinda sucks.
He's a dick but it doesn't take away from his talent
This is magic .
Incredible version!
just beautiful
Chills. Somehow this version makes me wanna cry!! 😅
he's the best, I love this dude so much,
I love that he redid this album. The lyrics sound so much better when he sings them..
Especially on Blank Space & Wildest Dreams
Tawlo I don't think they sound better, just different.
Alexis Ford I agree. It's good, but not better
According to feminists on Twitter now its considered musical mansplaining.
Excelente cover, Ryan Adams es uno de mis cantantes favoritos
BEAUTIFUL SONG!!!!
Ridiculously good
Ryan Adams and Nate Walcott. Amazing.
OMG!! is beautiful😍
Soo freakin Awesome!!
Love this cover.
Ryan sounds the same live or studio that's hard to find
Brandon Hannick his voice is hauntingly amazing. Even when he sings without a mic. He sounds like he is singing with echo
My nerdy hero
beautiful
That's a Sears "Buck Owens" that he is playing
The other Fellow is playing a Harmony "Jet Set" Jumbo!!
Cheers Jim👍. I’ve seen him play this on a few vids, but could never make out the name.👍🎸🏴
Great looking guitars! Could only imagine how much they run for
God dammit I wish I was around in the 70s to buy that Buck Owens guitar for $100. Now they want thousands.
thank you for the upload
This is great.
Looks like the guitar played in the nirvana mtv unplugged.
+Ryan Archibald I think its a Buck Owens Harmony Model...
+Ryan Archibald Haha exactly my thought too. Omg, those memories
Pat Smear did play an identical guitar in that show.
Lucas Henrique Garcia correct
Plateau
he got the same guitar like Pat Smear in nirvana mtv unplugged
Play Dear Chicago cuz i havent cried in a while
I'd love to see Taylor Swift step out on stage and sing this version. Then Ryan Adams come out and start to do her version. Then Taylor Swift's rest of the concert is doing Ryan Adam's catalogue of best songs backed by his band. Then ponies!
She did a solo acoustic versio herself at last once: ruclips.net/video/p1Zt47V3pPw/видео.html
When Ryan Adams trolled the world.
They had his cover of Style on here…but somebody pulled it.
I love that character in the Net
really nice ...
Rick Moranis hasn't aged a day although he looks a little more hipster these days.
+Chaz Michael Thank you. Ryan Adams should always be known as Hipster Rick Moranis from now on.
This comment doesn't get enough credit.
I was gonna say Velma from Scooby Doo, but hipster Rick Moranis is perfect
Glasses and a sweater = hipster, apparently..?
Best comment on RUclips
Cool
Id give my life to have his for one day. Just to have those thoughts and talent .
nice like it
New money, suit and tie
I can read you like a magazine
Ain't it funny, rumors fly?
And I know you heard about me
So hey, let's be friends
Dying to see how this one ends
Grab your passport and my hand
So it's gonna be forever
Or it's gonna go down in flames
You can tell me when it's over
If the high was worth the pain
Got a long list of ex-lovers
They'll tell you I'm insane
'Cause you know I love the players
And you love the game
So goddamn reckless
We'll take this way too far
It'll leave you breathless
Or with a nasty scar
Got a long list of ex-lovers
They'll tell you I'm insane
But I've got a blank space, baby
And I'll write your name
Cherry lips, crystal skies
I could show you incredible things
Stolen kisses, pretty lies
I'm your king and you're my queen
Find out what you want
Be that girl for a month
Wait, the worst is yet to come
Screaming, crying, perfect storms
I can make all the tables turn
Rose gardens filled with thorns
Keep you second-guessing like
"Oh my God, who is she?"
I get drunk on jealousy
But you'll come back each time you leave
So it's gonna be forever
Or it's gonna go down in flames
You can tell me when it's over
If the high was worth the pain
Got a long list of ex-lovers
They'll tell you I'm insane
'Cause you know I love the players
And you love the game
So goddamn reckless
We'll take this way too far
It'll leave you breathless
Or with a nasty scar
Got a long list of ex-lovers
They'll tell you I'm insane
But I've got a blank space, baby
And I'll write your name
I'll write your name
I'll write your name
I'll write your name
💕 Sonny Blue We Loves You 💕🎸🙏🔥🔥💋💋
i LIKE THIS VERSION MORE THAN TAYLOR'S, ALTHOUGH HER VIDEO IS AWESOME
THis sounds better 😄😁
1000 times better than original !
Ryan adams and zakk wyld should do a song
It's amazing. A friggin' miracle! He actually made Taylor Swift music listenable!
Meeeehhhhhhh..... Bring back Whiskeytown
+Jason Scott who wants to live in the past..its over, great records but we all move on
I like the past. Better music. Adams is really reaching here.
+Jason Scott Don't agree, love his own music but I love this version he did of TS too.
I can't with this
It's ok. You don't have to like everything. None of us do. :-)
What model glasses is he using?
buck owens guitar. nuff said.
Awsoeme
No..I got no inspiration from the movie or actress with this penning: I wrote the lyrics for every cut on 1989
Ryan's versions are better than T Swift on about half of this record. Also too....he looks like Rivers Cuomo in this.
I love his version, but gosh i wish he'd adjusted the lyrics just a bit so that he's not referring to himself as she... Just a couple of slight changes... Having said that, Ryan Adams, in the end, really can do no wrong.
He did change the lyrics to match his gender
Buck Owens called
He wants his gutair back
Great cover, but I won't forgive him for what he did phoebe bridgers
Why are Weezer-Junior & Weezer-Junior Jr. playing Tay Tay covers? play summer of 89 brahh ....let it ride because your just a nobody girl.OK??
lol what? English please. Also he's one of the most respected folk rock artists of the last two decades
Prefer the original thanks
ahh...when Ryan Adams jumped the shark.
So sad he is such a creep.
So sad he was manipulated by women thinking they’d use him to further their own interests.
Ew
It sucks he dis a really good job on this cover but he had to say that stupid ass joke at the beginning
Not sung as high as on the recorded version
Id give my life to have his for one day. Just to have those thoughts and talent .
