@@christianclark5795 soo.... Taylor won a VMA in 2009 and when she was giving her acceptance speech , kanye barged in and took the mic from her and said that beyonce deserved that VMA . Ever since that it's been on and off . Kanye did apologise and Taylor left it behind and they had a friendship of about a month but then kanye put a naked Taylor lookalike In his "famous" music video and Taylor said that he didn't get permission but kim Kardashian(kanyes wife) said that kanye called her and asled for permission .... the two haven't exactly been on good terms since them .......
This is the first and only time i have ever listened to or even heard of this guy.The only reason i clicked on it was because there was a Taylor Swift song on here.I didn't listen to it all the way through so i wouldn't be " tortured " anymore than i had to be.
As a fan of Kanye's older tracks I admire Dermot's love and effort for them. His cover of Heartless was already splendid and this version is also sooo good. Thanks BBC for Live Lounge. After all these years it never fails to amaze me. 🖤
I love the way his face lights up when he sings „I’ve loved you three summers now honey“ it’s soooo cute, I bet he thinks about his girl while singing it 🥰😭
Taylor’s has so much power! She wrote it, the song itself comes from her lived experience. They’re her words. I also really like this version, he clearly loves this song and spent careful time finding his unique way of singing it!
That naughty look he gives to the band 2:42, knowing he will cause some reaction by choosing a kanye west song after a TS song, is EVERYTHING!!!!!!! I love Taylor and I love Ye!!!!!!!!!!
His voice is breathtaking, every song he writes touches a heartstring. Dermot singing Lover was all I needed. Can't wait to see you for the third time and this time in the Netherlands! Hope Dermot never forgets his folk/hiphop style
Pure talent. . . . Remember stopping to listen to him many times in Dublin when he was busking, same with Gavin James........ Ali Sherlock is now regularly busking in Dublin wont be long before she is on the live lounge and touring the world. Anyone ever on Dublin’s Grafton street make sure to stop for the buskers. Dermot is superb with covers should have sia’s chandelier still on RU-vid
the raw emotion in his voice and the amount of heartache yet joy that you can hear is unparalleled and truly amazing. youre my favorite right now dermot. keep doing you and making people truly feel
I love and adore Dermot Kennedy. Yet another masterpiece of a cover/mash-up. Genuinely the most talented artist in the music industry, and my favourite voice. As with all of Dermot’s music and covers, this makes me feel a different kind of way. Just wow.
The way this moved me! Truly made the covers his own and the transition was so clean. The emotions that come through him in his voice are gorgeous. Yes to getting a full version of Lover and Yes to getting this on Spotify so that it can be on repeat!
The love of my life, whom I've literally loved for three summers is moving from Washington state (US) to Florida (US) and I can't go with him. I have family here, including a pre-teen son. He has family there, including his first born son. The first half, Lover... That's exactly how I feel, but there's nothing I can do about it. I realize TS wrote this, but Dermott sang it with the depth of emotion I am feeling. I'm blown away!
Still coming back to this after all this time completely turned this song around for me with this beautiful powerful version. Dermot please release a full cover of this ❤️
Thank you, Pamela! Your kind words are like fuel to my creative fire. Knowing that my music resonates with people like you keeps me going. Let's keep the good vibes flowing It's nice meeting you here🌹
I don’t listen to TS so the first time I ever heard Lover was right here from Dermot. I made it my ringtone, so for 2 years I’ve heard this every day…. And even so here I am, 2 years later still coming back to this video and still getting goosebumps. Every. Single. Time. His voice evokes some serious emotion and always has. A lot of people in this world have beautiful voices, but a very limited amount can (at the chance of being dramatic here) stir the soul. He’s one.
Wow I remember this because the hoodie! Seems so long ago! I don't remember the song just the hoodie! Glad I found it again to listen to it again. What a super 🌟 star!!
