Swagger for days!!! 🔥🔥🔥
'i dont want to keep secrets just to keep you' is such a poignant line when it's in a sapphic/lesbian context. it drudges up systemic misogyny and patriarchal nonsense that makes it deadly and/or life altering to be out and proud and NOT choose a life with a ,an
taylor swift if comp het and androcentricity didn't stunt her talent and creativity. trad paths lead to artists' demise.
g flip is amazing! (and the pronoun change in the lyrics to she… it matters so much<3)
This is awful
I don’t like Taylor at all, but this is how this song is supposed to feel! My god she’s a force to be reckon with.
Fever dream high in the quiet of the night
You know that I caught it (oh yeah, you're right, I want it)
Bad, bad boy, shiny toy with a price
You know that I bought it (oh yeah, you're right, I want it)
Killing me slow, out the window
I'm always waiting for you to be waiting below
Devils roll the dice, angels roll their eyes
What doesn't kill me makes me want you more
And it's new, the shape of your body
It's blue, the feeling I've got
And it's ooh, whoa-oh
It's a cruel summer
"It's cool, " that's what I tell 'em
No rules in breakable heaven
But ooh, whoa-oh
It's a cruel summer with you (yeah, yeah)
Hang your head low in the glow of the vending machine
I'm not dying (oh yeah, you're right, I want it)
You say that we'll just screw it up in these trying times
We're not trying (oh yeah, you're right, I want it)
So cut the headlights, summer's a knife
I'm always waiting for you just to cut to the bone
Devils roll the dice, angels roll their eyes
And if I bleed, you'll be the last to know, oh
It's new, the shape of your body
It's blue, the feeling I've got
And it's ooh, whoa-oh
It's a cruel summer
"It's cool, " that's what I tell 'em
No rules in breakable heaven
But ooh, whoa-oh
It's a cruel summer with you
I'm drunk in the back of the car
And I cried like a baby coming home from the bar (oh)
Said, "I'm fine, " but it wasn't true
I don't wanna keep secrets just to keep you
And I snuck in through the garden gate
Every night that summer, just to seal my fate (oh)
And I screamed, "For whatever it's worth
I love you, ain't that the worst thing you ever heard?"
He looks up, grinnin' like a devil
It's new, the shape of your body
It's blue, the feeling I've got
And it's ooh, whoa-oh
It's a cruel summer
"It's cool, " that's what I tell 'em
No rules in breakable heaven
But ooh, whoa-oh
It's a cruel summer with you
I'm drunk in the back of the car
And I cried like a baby coming home from the bar (oh)
Said, "I'm fine, " but it wasn't true
I don't wanna keep secrets just to keep you
And I snuck in through the garden gate
Every night that summer, just to seal my fate (oh)
And I screamed, "For whatever it's worth
I love you, ain't that the worst thing you ever heard?"
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Beautiful 🙏✌️
Tswift covers are, on the whole, way better than the tswift version
i'm so gayyyyyy
Never liked the original, but THIS I FN love!! ❤️
Damn! Good job!
Impressive!!!!!
WAY better than the original!!!👏
This is my favorite version and my favorite like a version. G Flip rules
New fav cover 🤘
Taylor swift 0:50
Brilliant! ❤😊
I am so In love with the voice
I'm. Stunned.
Ellie Goulding meets Haley Williams
Pure talent, really love this version
Just…. Perfection. 02:24 my mind exploded.
Paul Kelly said it's hard to cover Taylor's music, as she wrote it all for her! Her breaths, let alone the change in tempo or key! Well done gorgeous girl! ❤
jfc
This is me, coming back around in 2026 to declare just how life changing this performance was for me. Seeing GFlip in person in 2025 was next level.
Still come back to this!! ❤
Why does she remind me of a grown up Jojo Siwa
Wow…
Out did it Australia ❤
WHAT THE HEEEEELLLLL
“I love paramore” yes Hayley is probably the main vocalist on this.
Dude, I wanted Hayley's hairdo so bad back in day 😂😂
The drummer did great. It's just kind of funny that when G Flip took over, he was relegated to a tube shaker lol
Shows what a great song writer Taylor is. Teddy swims has a kick ass version also ❤
Amazing
Also, the mixing on these is out of this world. Even the acoustic guitar doesn't get lost. So well done across the board
Putting on an absolute CLINIC
Tag urself im the guy in the back shaking a can of beans 2:40
@humanity_bear
better than the original👍
She looks like someone kids buy weed from in the supermarket parking lot…… also she is struggling hitting those notes
GREAT pitch.
Amazing ❤
2:28 that time signature change was wild! 😮👏🔥
I think about this cover on a weekly basis I'm obsessed with this so much I have NO WORDS
She is unreal
