(Fullest Version) Better Man - Taylor Swift Live At The Bluebird Cafe 

Isn’t it funny how we’re all here, watching this, and thinking about different persons and different mistakes they made?

Just hits different when it's acoustic and her voice.

it blows my mind how effortlessly she sings this song with such control

She can sing all the pop songs she wants, but this is who she is. This is when she’s at her best. Just her and her guitar!

I love people in the crowd faces they are genuinely amazed. Thank you Taylor you make people happy.

Hope Taylor could re-record this in her Taylor’s version album🥺

I'm not a huge "Swifty" ......yet, but def can see her heart of gold when (you can just tell) she's smiling and looking at that girl in the audience that is losing her mind thinking "Taylor is singing and talking to me, for me!!!!??"""

This is beautiful. I never knew that she wrote this until just recently.

This is more emotional than the taylor's version.

here after the anounce of RED TV hoping she includes this on the tracklist

this is like a sequel to 'tolerate it'

Listening to this and Riptide one after the other is a whole experience

when she sings "sometimes" you can hear her twang, and i never noticed how much musicians and Taylor Swift does here is use her mouth for vocalizing. When she sings "Man" and I know..i had to say goodbye" when she sings know she's really doing well and over accentuating her vowels...oh i was gonna say that this is prob my fav song of hers and this is my fav version, which makes me frustrated i can't hear the whole thing the whole way through, but at the same time, it makes that night at the Bluebird all the more special for those who were in attendance.

I know I’m probably better off on my own Than lovin' a man who Didn’t know what he had when he had it. And I see The permanent damage you did to me. Never again, I just wish I could forget when it was magic. I wish it wasn’t 4 am, Standing in the mirror, saying to myself: You know you had to do it. I know the bravest thing I ever did was run. Sometimes, in the middle of the night, I can feel you again But I just miss you, and I just wish you were a better man. And I know why we had to say goodbye like the back of my hand And I just miss you, and I just wish you were a better man, A better man. I know I’m probably better off all alone Than needing a man who could Change his mind at any given minute. And it’s always on your terms I’m hanging on every careless word Hoping it might turn sweet again Like it was in the beginning. But your jealousy, I can hear it now. You’re talking down to me like I’ll always be around. You push my love away like it’s some kind of loaded gun. No, you never thought I’d run. Sometimes, in the middle of the night, I can feel you again But I just miss you, and I just wish you were a better man. And I know why we had to say goodbye like the back of my hand And I just miss you, and I just wish you were a better man, A better man... Better man... I hold onto this pride Because these days it’s all I have And I gave you my best, And we both know you can’t say that... No, You can’t say that... If you were a better man... You would’ve been the one, If you were a better man, Yeah, yeah. Sometimes, in the middle of the night, I can feel you again But I just miss you, and I just wish you were a better man. And I know why we had to say goodbye like the back of my hand And I just miss you and I just wish you were a better man, A better man... Better man... We might still be in love, if you were a better man, You would’ve been the one, If you were a better man

I have a lot of respect for Little Big Town and they sing this song well but Taylor’s voice with this song is beyond gorgeous!!! ❤️😃

this one, by far, has the best audio, much much better.

Was just looking for the version without that as**ole Scott. THANK YOU

She brings my tears; I liked it when little big town released it. I feel it when she does it!

Ok this gave me chills. Jesus 😭

This song had me in tears 😭

This is really well done, we don't see enough performances from Taylor like this.

Always wonder why she wrote this just to have someone else sing it.

I'm happy it has live now

Y'ALL THIS IS GONNA BE ON RED TAYLORS VERSION WE WON

Thank you so much for posting this @Vickoridge So appreciate you doing your best to do this gorgeously vulnerable and powerful song about someone walking away from an abusive relationship despite still being in love with that person. I hope we someday get to see a full and complete acoustic version of this song performed from beginning to end. That said, I can only imagine that it must take a lot of courage for her, even today, to get up on stage and make herself completely vulnerable to a room full of strangers and just sing out whatever pain still resides inside her from that toxic relationship. I wouldn't wish that kind of abusive relationship trauma on any adult, and certainly not on someone in their early 20s. Just incredibly brave for her to get up on stage and perform this. You can almost sense her initial trepidation as she begins singing and then eventually just closes her eyes and belts it all out once she sees the audience smiling back at her. I'm glad the audience was so attentive and respectful.

I can’t wait for red 😭 I’m so happy it will be in the album 🙏🏻

I don’t know if I’m mentally prepare to hear this on November 19 🥺😭😭

I like her singing it the best

I love singing this song, feels so good

The woman is too much for words, she is a gift to us all.

THANKYOU FOR DOING THIS omgdfjkghsdf

RED (Taylor’s Version) out Nov. 19!!

Some of the saddest and most relatable words Taylor ever said was, "You would've been the one if you were a better man". I'm sure every woman on Earth knows exactly how that feels.

Best TS Song ever!

She absolutely slays at country

I gave you 17 yrs, hoping one day you would have actually loved me... well now I have a better man. , loves me like I've never been loved before.. ❤

Omg she needs to make this song!!!!!!!

She is my lady

I haven't ever been in a romantic relationship. Why do I feel hurt after listening to this song?😢

yeah Taylor Country is just more authentic i think more for her, i like how she says "man" sounds very country.

ভাল মানুষ হতেন তবে আমরা এখনও প্রেমে থাকতে পারি........

Thank you Russell ❤I love you ❤

She's got real pipes.

I think the is my favourite Taylor Swift song/performance ever. It's absolutely spine-tingling. Needs a proper release, but that'll probably never happen because of BMR.

Omg the 1

Does anyone know where I can download the audio of this. I will love you forever

❤❤

the truth about abusive relationship, the narcissistic partner will never admit that their partner gave them the best. narcissists will always tell people that their exes are the worst human being ever

1:19 ❤

I love this song ever since it was singing by little Big town but I love Taylor singing it is on great I know Taylor wrote the song.

2:59💖💖💖

Alison is a great taylor

This could be about Scott, who was in the audience! How could you Scott?!!!

❣❣

She sounds comfortable.

Her partner on stage was shaking his head like don’t think like that , you can’t keep thinking like that it’s too sad.

😭💖

💚💚💚💚💚💚💚

Anyone else extremely confused why the other versions of this video are missing the second verse??? Second verse hits different

3:07 so sorry i got sick

Who's the guy on stage ? Is he the larger part of LIttle Big Town?

Thanks to have removed the traitor out of our view

Everyone.

Eleven Twelve

I think she was singing to Scott B a bit… wish he were a better man.

Taylor this is dusty my kids are Shelby and cobra Ariana same mom

Malissa swift

I think it would be much better if she impromptu changed the lyrics while staring at that D-bag Scott, Sometimes, in the middle of the night, I can feel you again But I don't miss you, and I just wish Scott🤮 was a better man. And I know why we had to say goodbye like the back of my hand And I don't miss you, I just wish Scott😡 was a better man, .......

Not what ? Free

Is this tune about the same card she wrote “all too well” about?

This is highly edited, check out the audience video on YT

The best song! Better than………! Go Taylor!
