Per your requests, JT is comparing the two versions of 1989. Cooley is dealing with family stuff for the next week or so, and we'll update you then. Until then, you're stuck with JT!

I went into this thinking I would like Taylor's version more, but I like the original better now - watch to see why! Mad respect to both, though.

I play my guitar far more than normal in this video - I had to make up for the lack of Cooley's twerking and comedy. Also, if you hear buzzing towards the end, it's my guitar amp, sorry!

Hope you enjoy!!

Hugs, thoughts, and prayers to Cooley. ❤️❤️❤️ You got this JT!

Long time Swiftie here, let’s agree to disagree. Apart from the guitar intro on Style, I like the re-record better. Better vocals overall in my opinion. Out Of The Woods, AYHTDWS, I Know Places and Wonderland are a real upgrade for me for production as well. But to be honest, I listened to the OG versions when it was “not done” because of its familiarity. All the best for Cooley.

Bex

Look at those cool spectacles!! This will be cool to watch, looking forward to it. Much love, Cooley!

Teresa Salas

Your thoughts on her younger voice are valid. There’s a desperation to her tone in Blank Space that you don’t hear in the TV. I love her mature voice and the TVs are rich and well produced , but the emotion is different. We can’t even talk about the intro to Style bc it’s considered so botched lol. Speak Now original is also better with her young voice bc it has so much attitude compared to TV.

Ashley

I love the original so much more especially Wildest Dreams!!!! I typically like her originals alongside some Vault songs. The re-recording that I will say trumps the original is "The Other Side Of The Door" which My FAVORITE re recording. The production is better on the re-recordings but I feel like the originals had a certain soulful element.

Jacquie

Ugh this is so great to WATCH and the guitar playing!!!!!!!!! Love it lots

Chrystal

Love this. You’re great flying solo—thanks for being willing to do it. Prayers for everything to go well for Cooley so he can return to you (and us) soon. I learn so much while I’m laughing with y’all.

CassandraRN

Best wishes to Cooley! ❤️

Chrystal

Lord have mercy when you play with Bad Blood! Incredible!

Teaghan

A weekend upload? You spoil us! Can’t wait to watch it later today.

LuuuuuM

I agree, her vocals are better in the Taylor's Version but there's something about the original that still takes the cake. Specially Style and New Romantics, the original is WAY better!! Thanks for this doing extra episode. Best wishes to Cooley!

Nathan

Is there a tuba or something on the drum/bass hits in the original bad blood?? Something sounds different… also love this thanks!

Niya

you should react to the 1989 world tour gives so much background knowledge

Lizel

Oh wow!! We are really doing this? 👏👏

Teaghan

I also LOVE the OG version

Tal

I think Style is unanimously agreed upon the swifties that the OG version is the better version by a mile. I hadn't encountered 1 swiftie defending Style Taylor's Version. it's simply better, without a doubt. in my swiftie circle we call the 1989 Taylor's Version album (as a whole) '1989 the botched version' haha

Jenna Bolmgren

The glasses look great, you made a solid choice!

Btw “aesthetic” works for all senses, so you can use it for audio, but I saw this on reddit (🤓): Harmonious: marked by agreement in feeling, attitude, or action. Euphony/euphonic: agreeableness of sound; pleasing effect to the ear, especially a pleasant sounding or harmonious combination or succession of words.

Susanne Stien Masters

How can you ever recreate the emotion of the time period you wrote the album? Her vocals may be technically better, but you just can't deny the emotion and excitement in the OG.

Bex

Ok. I am finally watching. First and foremost, this is seriously cool and fascinating to watch. I love people nerding about music, especially when they know what they are doing and pick up on all the nuances I would miss. Second I need the JT plays to Style on Spotify.

Jessica Rae

This is the one album that I also prefer the OG to TV. I think having different producers on TV did a disservice to this album, simply because the OG was already absolutely legendary, and unfortunately TV felt very overproduced on a lot of the tracks.

Donna L

Thinking about you, Cooley! Best to your family.

April Green

Fun watch! I was always a speak now stan so that's the album I notice the most differences and prefer the OG. The other rerecords are subtle enough that I never really notice many changes.

Bradlie

I think it’s important to remember her vocals had always been criticized, so I think they kinda drowned her out. But she trained, in the new version, she’s the forefront. I’m so rhythm heavy, I have to listen to old, but the new- her vocals ❤️
