When people tell me I must know some Taylor Swift songs, I try to explain that I’ve probably heard some, but there’s just nothing in them that catches my interest so I just forget them immediately. This is a good way to explain what I mean. I recognize the pattern enough to say, “yeah, that sounds like it could be Taylor Swift”, but it’s all so forgettable.
Todd In The Shadows has some good reviews of Swift songs.
I don’t think I care enough about Taylor Swift or her songs to care about reviews of them, even if the reviews are funny or whatever.
They’re entertaining, but I’m also really into music.
The same guy has a similar video about the Red Hot Chili Peppers which is way more accurate. And funny.
It’s like 95% RHCP 5% Beck. “Stepped on a toad, broke a Navajo code, now it’s time to reiterate: California.”

Pretty funny, pretty accurate too. But, I can definitely hear the lack of Flea.
For reference, here’s the isolated bass for Californication (which I think is the song they’re imitating, and, IMO, is one of Flea’s least interesting basslines):
Honestly, this isn’t bad. I’ve read way worse writing than these lyrics.
So is this not swift?
Was hoping they would do a version of Taylor slips, falls, and stubs her toe on things. But that would be just softcore ASMR.
True, only time I heard any of her songs was a school playback and they could have used that instead as far as I’m concerned
