This 14-year-old Taylor Swift cover is making waves on streaming after a recent controversy. The singer is known for writing her own songs, but she also loves a surprise cover once in a while.

For example, in 2019, while promoting her album “Lover,” Swift performed an emotional cover of Phil Collins’ “Can’t Stop Loving You” at the BBC Radio 1 Live Lounge.

A few years earlier, Swift covered Vance Joy’s “Riptide” for Live Lounge, resulting in him joining her 1989 Tour as an opening act.

However, the most Swift-covered music was at her 2011 tour promoting her third studio album, Speak Now. One of those covers is currently getting a lot of attention due to a recent controversy on social media.

Jojo Siwa’s “Bette Davis Eyes” Cover Has Brought Attention To Taylor’s Version

Swift Covered The Song At A Concert In 2011

When Jojo Siwa teased her cover of Kim Carnes’ “Bette Davis Eyes,” listeners were less than pleased.

They felt Siwa’s vocals were too raspy and autotuned. They also didn’t love her 1950s housewife aesthetic in the video clips. However, all the attention on “Bette Davis Eyes” reminded some Swifties of Taylor Swift’s 2011 cover of the song.

The Eras Tour was known for its acoustic set, where Swift would do various surprise songs every night.

However, back in the day at Swift’s Speak Now World Tour, the singer-songwriter would cover an artist who hailed from the city she was performing in. Since Carnes is from Los Angeles, Swift covered the song at her LA show.

As Swift does best, she played the song acoustically for the audience. Later that year, Swift released her live Speak Now Tour CD + DVD, and her “Bette Davis Eyes” cover made it onto the recording. The CD is currently available on streaming platforms, giving fans easy access to the cover.
