| Ryan Adams Covers "Bad Blood" |
Ryan Adams released the first single off his upcoming cover album of
Taylor Swift’s
1989
on Thursday, Sept. 17 — and the mellow singer-songwriter has undeniably
made the pop princess’s summer hit "Bad Blood" his own.
Adams, 40, premiered his acoustic interpretation of Swift’s song on
DJ Zane Lowe’s Apple Music’s Beats 1 radio, and all of a sudden lines
such as “Band-aids don’t fix bulletholes” seemed to take on a deeper
meaning.
The seasoned musician has been teasing the album on social media for
weeks, leading the 25-year-old “Blank Space” singer to tweet her
excitement.
“is this true??????? I WILL PASS OUT,” Swift
tweeted on Aug. 6 after a music journalist dropped the news.
Adams also announced that he will be releasing the full album online on
Monday, Sept. 21, after previously tweeting that he and his team were
“sandblasting” the songs and “they’re holding steady.”
“Ryan’s music helped shape my songwriting,” Swift tweeted Thursday
shortly after the first cover dropped. “This is surreal and dreamlike.”
This isn’t the first time Adams has completed such a project, however.
In 2002, the “Gimme Something Good” singer covered the whole Strokes
album
Is This It, but never released it to the public.
