Taylor Swift - Cornelia Street (Live From Paris)| Reaction

[@fiv5by5ive]

When Taylor just has a guitar or a piano she goes off. I love her stage performances but when she is acoustic its just hit different. I think thats what makes her an artist. She is always bringing you something special no matter the set up. I just love the raw emotion you see in her when she is just with her instrument and voice.

[@lorigarza9971]

Yeah, she has a phenomenal voice, and that is where the best of it comes out. Just her and the instrument. Just beautiful.

[@brucebrown3837]

I love when grown ass men (I'm a 65 yr old male who has been a Swiftie since 2008) are FINALLY listening to her and watching her perform and realizing just how good she is.

[@markbarnwell942]

sixty four and i so agree.

[@saralynne1513]

I saw a recent TikTok comment where a man complained that her only fan base was young girls. He had no clue how wrong he actually is. ❤

[@deborahgrabien3125]

Turning 70 this June, husband and I have been Swifties since "Teardrops On My Guitar" on the first LP. She is 100% the real deal.

[@ThatSingerReactions]

Lol

[@ameliadavis1979]

That is because so many people love to hate on her for no reason and don't even give her a chance! Pretty Sad!​@@saralynne1513

[@Kaysinfernal]

I love all her performances but she really shines when it’s just her and a guitar/piano. Out of the woods from the Grammy museum is my favorite example of this

[@emilyisable]

I love that one.

[@rmbchristian]

This!!!!!

[@heidimichelle4834]

I was just going to say that! Grammy museum performance has to be one of the best!

[@IvyCowboy]

That's one of my faves too. Trying to get him to react to it lol

[@LeahTargaryen]

That performance is INCREDIBLE. Made me love the song tenfold I'm telling you

[@madelinewise8692]

It is a great vocal performance but also, the fact that she played the guitar flawlessly and wrote the damn song too.

[@troyanstone65]

Exactly, bloody legend!!!

[@charlenemadan8693]

It was "fuck Cornelia street" for me 😂❤😂❤😂❤

[@mardochepastrana3996]

Lmao😭😭😭😭😭🤣🤣🤣.

[@marcellapena4441]

I literally BURST OUT laughing!!😂 Love that!!❤

[@aczannoy]

I love that one too 😀

[@rach8683]

There's another acoustic performance from the same event called 'Death by a thousand cuts' which is also incredible and worth watching 100%. She's sitting like that with the same guitar and doesn't hold back on that one either. That and Cornelia Street are my favourite live performances too

[@biol232laboratory5]

Agreed!!! These two live performances are top tier and two of her best.

[@ThatSingerReactions]

@@biol232laboratory5 its recorded already just havent uploaded yet i got probably 6 taylor swift videos i have ready to release

[@TopNotchWatcher87]

Yes, was going to suggest that one next!! She’s such a powerhouse performer in this song, it gave me so much more appreciation for this song!

[@rach8683]

@ThatSingerReactions looking forward to seeing the reaction! Well, and the rest of them too of course 😂

[@OprahZoprahZ]

@@ThatSingerReactionsYESSSSS I was gonna say death by 1000 cuts!!!

[@dianafaustina]

Daylight and Death By a Thousand Cuts live from Paris hits just as hard.

[@the_petty_crocker]

Daylight is so underrated. Actually, the entire album is underrated.

[@trudyisaacs840]

I have to agree. Whenever she sings solo, and plays guitar or piano, it's just phenomenal.

[@F1Swiftie]

I’m watching this again months later. Never gets old that this channel went from “ugh Taylor Swift” to a literal “proud papa” look on your face at 3:57 ❤

[@calliea3336]

Her mixed voice has improved SO MUCH over the years. In some of her earlier performances, you can SEE the stress in her body when she’d approach her chest/head changeover. I’m not judging-puberty is a b¡tch on the voice and she went through it with the world listening, plus an ED that didn’t leave her the energy to fully support her notes-just commending the persistence and work ethic in training her voice to be what it is today. I hope young people who want to sing see how much she’s grown and understand nobody is born Eras Tour Taylor Swift-even Taylor Swift. Hard work and good training goes a long way!

[@vjmcdonn]

THIS!!!!!!!!

[@AnjeannetteMarie-Swifie4Ever]

Well said

[@EricAriel5]

Taylor said early in her career award shows and such made her super nervous and it would reflect in her vocals,but at her concerts where she knew 100% of the crowd was with her she was more confident in her vocals.

[@calliea3336]

@@EricAriel5 And that’s a good lesson for young singers, too! Everyone has circumstances they get nervous in. Even Taylor Swift has gotten stage fright, so nobody should be too hard on themselves for it. It’s something that can be worked on and usually overcome, or at least improved. 😊

[@Ldlover]

👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🥹

[@nicoleleigh1793]

To me this is her second best live performance, and it’s incredible! But when she did Evermore in the acoustic set in Cincinnati at Eras tour last summer it was just…perfect. She sang her part and Bon Iver’s part and it was fucking magic. Crowd went silent. It’s a crime we can’t purchase the live version.

[@LanderDevosefteling]

The "you were there" gave me chills on another level

[@LeesiiiH]

Oooohhhh he NEEDS to watch this one

[@darsynia]

That was absolute fucking MAGIC. I listened to it for the first time and SOBBED (because she had the crowd pick up half the back and forth parts, and it was clear as a bell. I adore when she does that )1989 tour she did it with You're In Love (had them sing the repeat parts, 'You can hear it in the silence (silence).'

[@musicfangirl7403]

That’s amazing you could hear it and the crowd shut up for it. I didn’t hear one second of Taylor during the LA show. Just the crowd singing badly over her.

[@shkh1418]

The evermore performance in the eras tour is my Roman Empire I think and listen to it everyday!

[@Sssighh]

When he yelled "FUCK CORNELIA STREET!" Its so Joever 😭

[@shannonbullock2202]

She’s one of the best song writers of our time, a fantastic performer, vocals are pretty, but what makes her so special is how she makes u feel her music. She’s not pretending the emotion bc she writes her life into her music. Not many artists can make u feel their music like she can. I’m not a Swiftie or a super fan of anyone bc they are just people, but she is definitely a special musician.

[@drunkenlovee]

Live from Paris just hits different🔥🔥

[@troyanstone65]

Paris and Grammy museum songs are all incredible vocals

[@madikate97]

Taylor solo with a guitar and raw vocals is one of those most beautiful things. I can feel the emotions of this one in my bones

[@IamtobeShy]

The “F*ck Cornelia Street” sent me 😂😂

[@JUK94]

Please react to Death By A Thousand Cuts Live from Paris - also another amazing live performance from her

[@amycoleman3688]

YES! YES! ALL THE YESES!!!

[@cagautgacogacoor914]

THIS

[@Catastrophèé25]

This one too

[@c1ltperaltamichaeljudel3cl52]

Yess

[@alliel9970]

10000% agree this is her best vocal performance! Same concert, her performance of Death by a Thousand Cuts is amazing.

[@dasbestgirlever]

100% her best live vocal performance. Ever

[@photogbrandie5744]

When a voice hits you so hard you get angry at the singer. 😍

[@megasmr2927]

If you want to hear a great performance from Taylor, her singing Out of the Woods from the 1989 tour live in Sydney Australia is one of the most fun ones Ive seen!!!

[@Hey_Jamie]

He’s already seen it

[@holliejolly]

This and her Grammy museum performances are my favourite vocals.

[@lisahumphrey1591]

Hey I’m near 55 and loved TS since her 1st album. I have them all!!

[@musicfangirl7403]

Definitely one of her best live vocals. She is also playing guitar while enthralling a large arena while alone onstage. Take away all the dancing and sets and costumes and this is where she shines brightest. I love how excited and proud you sounded!

[@kerrichristian7991]

Thank you for reacting to Taylor! This is absolutely one of my fave performances of hers. She makes it looks so easy.

[@stepanova8]

The way she played the guitar with such a textured performance.. while she was giving an equally dynamic vocal performance... It blows my mind! I have come to the conclusion that anybody who doesn't give her props for her abilities hasn't taken the time to really listen to her work outside of radio stuff. Thank you so much for your honest reactions. I love them!

[@ashleyhoney9074]

I love how excited you are. WELCOME to swiftie land!! This is what Taylor is known for! There are so many more acoustic performances where she shows vocals like this. It’s just that a lot of people only focus on the mainstream stuff. Check out the Grammy Museum performances. Just her, a guitar & piano.

[@alina8829]

I think this and Don't Blame Me are some of her best. But we also need to remember that one specific performance on 1989 World Tour with Wiz Khalifa - See You Again. On the last chorus she goes absolutely insane with that belting note and emotion in her voice. Way better that the original for me (no hate to Charlie Puth, he's an incredible vocalist, but Taylor made that song better). I also don't see a lot of fans and people appreciating her vocals on Speak Now. In Taylor's Version she has improved so much and these big notes in the bridges of Dear John, Haunted, The Story Of Us, etc. are incredibly good!!

[@darsynia]

Doubt with Mary J. Blige is also flawless. I looove how she goes all in on everything she does.

[@jessrene]

This reaction made me so happy 😊

[@alisong826]

Agree, her voice is magnanimous in this version. One of my faves!!

[@Violet316]

You might want to look up the word magnanimous. Would the word magnificent be what you meant?

[@fiv5by5ive]

The only thing wrong with lover in some peoples eyes is "me!" and maybe "you need to calm down"...."me!" is a lot of peoples "shake it off" to you (I love shake it off btw) Although now Lover is getting its due because its skyrocketing YEARS after its release (released aug 2019) and its not a re-record for ownership. Lover was the first record she owned right after recording it.

[@antoniaruth3781]

Is the album skyrocketing or is it just „Cruel Summer“? 😅

[@stephaniejackson923]

There’s PLENTY you haven’t gotten to, but this live show is elite in terms of her singing. Death by a Thousand Cuts from the same Paris show is killer!!

[@tylerfunnyman2532]

One of my favs

[@thinedge]

This is what I play for people that say she can't sing or play guitar. Kills every time. This also shows off her songwriting chops. There are 8 videos of her Live from Paris. Check out the others.

[@robertthompson7242]

This was a Lover album concert in fall 2019; sort of a warmup to her Loverfest tour that got cancelled. Audience was just 3000 in a historic old French theater in Paris. It was up on Disney+ in March 2020 after covid lockdowns started; in April she started working with Aaron Dessner on what would be folklore. They released it in July without announcements or promo; because she needed something to do. The Long Pond Studio Sessions film was done in Sep 2020; then she dropped Evermore in December. She is a total workaholic.

[@donnahall3040]

Thanks for the respect, Taylor does not get enough respect she deserves.

[@eleanoreleroux5515]

"fuck Cornelia street" 😂😂 Man, I love your energy!

[@Carla-hk2jo]

I had never heard this one before. Beautiful!! Her voice sounded amazing.

[@michellestephenson-webb3175]

Ok Please seriously go react to Taylor Swift, Grammy Museum performance she’s acoustic one electric guitar and just her on the piano and you can hone in on how good she sounds. Plus she explains why she wrote every song it’s four songs Blank Space it’s hilarious the story that she talks about and how she got to that songwriting point of view, how to get the girl Out of the woods and wildest dreams on the electric guitar and that’s just her on the Grammy museum stage in front of Grammy members so it’s very small and it’s Fanfuckingtastic! This one would be right up your alley because you can hear every single note every time she goes up or down or squeaks it’s fantastic

[@paulagepson3446]

I'm in the same boat as you. I initially had no love for Taylor as she was originally country. I saw the Lover concert in Paris on KZbin and was hooked. I freaking love her.

[@IvyCowboy]

I'm so happy you liked this one! This song and performance still gives me chills. I'm so excited you're getting into some acoustic performances, because imo it's where she truly shines.

[@darren4664]

Loving him discover that not only can Tay sing, but slay!

[@vjmcdonn]

Love love love your reaction to this!!

[@Aldz__]

I love how she pulled off a Morissette style intentional vocal break on several occasions 6:12 3:31 8:02. It's very tastefully placed on specific parts, and not all over the place. There's also a bit in 7:47 and 7:49, and I'm so here for it. And that freaking growl 7:53.. Yes lioness!! I'm usually not commenting on vids, but it's nice to see you react on rare gems like these. I'm one of the rare Mowienatic Swifties out there~

[@Mymerlot]

Agreed!!! My absolute favourite live performance of hers. It’s just perfect!

[@lauraontheisland]

It was fantastic.

[@katejacobs540]

Actually, watching this video along with your reaction to False God made me realize a connection between the two... False God with the religious imagery, specifically "Religion's in your lips" and then "Sacred new beginnings that became my religion" from Cornelia Street. * chef's kiss *

[@garysimcox345]

This has to be my fav acoustic performance of hers. So beautiful. There’s nothing more magical than Taylor and one instrument in a room.❤

[@jcs1090]

If I may, there are many more performances like this. Every year her voice has relaxed and improved as a result. I pray for an acoustic album one day.

[@EJSElling]

She shines when it's just her and her guitar. True artistry❤

[@Augustine0899]

Oh i love this song and her performance so much! I'm so happy you reacted to it ❤

[@Augustine0899]

also, if someone can find an eras tour live version of wouldve couldve shouldve for him that would be amazing! Jamieeeee?

[@Psyciandra]

You wanna hear TS growl and show of her vocal range, check out "I know Places", and "Out of The Woods" from her 1989 tour

[@JRay.R]

Please watch Death By A Thousand Cuts from this same performance, City of Lover in Paris. I loooove your reactions. Always honest and genuine. I agree, this is easily her top 3 best vocals. Definitely the best I’ve seen you react to lol. There are a couple more gems out there that might top this.

[@donaldcase4716]

One of my favorite TS songs

[@JoshFollmann]

To me there is something magical about the way Taylor uses her falsetto and I don't actually know how to explain it because I'm not a singer, but I think you might have been noticing the same thing when you said transition? It's something to do with the way she slides in and out of it, like... it sounds impossibly easy and smooth. I don't know if I'm making sense, but there it is.

[@deaditeera]

I love how this reaction just shows that if you listen & watch Taylor doing more than just her singles, she is incredible. There is more to her than radio hits & basic vocals.

[@Carolina_Girl_]

Yes! My guy🫶🏻 I HEAVILY suggest “Death by a Thousand Cuts” LIVE FROM PARIS! PLEASE 🙏🏼 You won’t regret it!! Keep shining my man✨

[@ameliadavis1979]

She was renting an apartment on Cornelia Street in New York while her apartment was being completely redone. She now lives in the redone apartment and never has to walk Cornelia Street again! Taylor and Joe the guy who the song is about is now an ex. They did date for almost six years though.

[@hhhat928]

This concert and Folklore Long Pond are her best vocal performances. I love her for her lyrics, but am so proud of how hard she's worked to get her vocals up to the level of her song writing. Hardest worker in entertainment

[@_ferodriguess]

this was beautiful!! loved the vocals to this one too!!

[@katieherger4928]

This was fun!! Your enthusiasm was awesome! I love this performance, it’s my favorite of hers, ever. You nailed it.

[@FC-qb9wp]

She always goes head voice first, then belt. She does it on some hooks of her songs too. I love her voice so much, so light and gorgeous.

[@leahunter7842]

I come back to this reaction way too much.

[@IvyCowboy]

The people are asking for Death By a Thousand Cuts (you've done it but haven't posted it yet). Seems like it gets requested a LOT. ❤🧡💛💚💙💜

[@jillleblang3631]

I LOVE YOUR REACTION!!! She is amazing. I’m so happy you have gotten to experience Taylor Swift!

[@Sweetmuffins0018]

I always love seeing you go from 🤔 to 🫨😍 the second you hear her go into falsetto. Haha. It’s one of my favorite things when you react to her music.

[@PatriciaStevens-rv6kn]

Thank you for being straight up about Taylor’s vocal ability. I didn’t like her music when she stated out either - it was too sweet, soft, young. But man has she grown and developed her vocal talent, the poetry of her lyrics and most of all, I have GINORMOUS respect for her handling of Kanye and the skank Kim’s attempt to damage her so much she would cancel herself. Taylor is 🔥

[@melanieeslinger2973]

Yep, totally agree her vocal is amazing here.

[@madeofglass]

taylor excels in acoustic performances

[@maria4hitz]

Her best version is always acoustic, just give her a guitar and she'll leave you speechless. It's her purest version. I pray that someday she'll go on an acoustic tour or record something like the old Mtv unplugged because it'd be absolutely incredible.

[@josefinasoderholm6488]

Yes your tripping!! Taylor has so many songs where her vocals are amazing. Just because you don’t sound like Beyoncé, wailing on every phrase doesn’t mean you don’t have god/amazing vocals. Taylor has an amazing range. If she would wail it would take away from her songs, over ride her lyrics. Her voice, her vocals, her lyrics and the music all together are perfection.

[@heathercochrane2207]

After news broke of their split, I remember getting all up in my feelings when this one would come on.

[@itsbrittfutch9396]

That entire Paris concert is amazing!

[@emmavink]

Every performance from this Paris Live concert, in my opinion, matches this track in vocal quality. And this was early 2020, if I remember correctly. From the same concert: Death By A Thousand Cuts is also just her and her guitar. Daylight is her on a piano with her backing singers (the Starlights who have been with her almost her entire career) and the band live very gently in the back. For some reason, many fans didn't love Lover. I don't know why. I am fully in love with the entire album. I think you would LOVE to hear a few tracks she does from Lover on the BBC Live Lounge Studio Sessions. Her vocals there are excellent as well. I am a vocalist too (studied music, piano, voice most of my life and been singing in internationally competitive choirs since I was young). What soooo many people take for granted is her technical ability. Her alto range is rich and really where her voice is best at this time in her life, but her higher range and falsetto is still very good. Her articulation and phrasing is excellent. She can do runs and staccato equally well. And honestly, her breath work is on the level of most professional choral singers I've had the pleasure of singing with. And her ability to play both guitar or piano and maintain her rhythm and pace flawlessly for the vast majority of her performances is an incredible skill that far too many ordinary people don't understand or appreciate. Just because she doesn't have the classical diva vocals doesn't mean she isn't a good vocalist. Also, I don't think there is anyone else in the industry that sounds like she does. Her voice really is unique to her, which in and of itself isn't an easy thing to do. So happy you are getting around to doing some of the stripped down acoustic performances. They really are my favourite from her 😊

[@oliviagracemiller1786]

There is just something different when she does an acoustic performance the main thing I always talk about when going to the Eras tour was the acoustic set part of the show which is also the surprise song of the show she does two songs the first on guitar which for me was Out Of The Woods and I will never shut up about it and the second on the piano which for me was the song Fifteen which was about her and her friend Abigail going thru high school together and that song was a big part of my childhood and I almost cried during it and will never shut up about it either

[@Leylahsong]

I was just listening to this performance on repeat yesterday, it really has a special charm to it

[@sarak2681]

Yes that’s one of her best performances ever, I love that one! You’re not crazy. I love that song too. This version is even better than the original. You are a perfect example of soooo many people who just write her off and say she sucks but don’t know how talented she really is! Glad you came around! She sang this so well while playing guitar at the same stinkin time. And then as you saw she can do something totally different with a big performance like Don’t Blame Me. She can do it all.

[@elisamaer9914]

I agree with you!

[@ImBetterDanUShouldKnowDatByNow]

yes it is one of her BEST VOCAL PERFORMANCES EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@isabel0506]

Lmao omg I LOVE your reactions when you realize HOW good she is. This is MY favorite vocal performance too! Which is why I own both the album and the live vynils lol it was SUCH A GOOD performance!!! I love that Taylor is finally getting her flowers cause she’s worked SO HARD on her vocals, like you said it’s not her thing but SHES MAKING IT HER THING. She got a lot of sh*t for her vocals and she went and put in the work to make them soooo good.

[@dirkus3722]

Her breath support is phenomenal. She had a lot of trouble controlling her voice when she was younger but she is 🤌🤌🤌 now. Not to mention accompanying herself perfectly with just as much emotion in the guitar as in her voice. This is always my first recommendation for new Swifties. The song immediately before this in the concert "Death By A Thousand Cuts" is an even better vocal performance if you can believe that.

[@pettycrockerxx]

this whole live in Paris is an amazing vocal session. Death By A Thousand Cuts from this show is SO GOOD! & Daylight is also good .

[@CDO1113]

You found your song :) Everyone that becomes a new TS fan finds one where the emotion/lyrics catch them and then the emotion is heightened by the tone of her voice. I knew it when you said F$€K Cornelia Street near the end lol. 😂🎉
