One young Swiftie is sure to have other fans of Taylor Swift “going feral” with a piano cover of a reputation classic that makes it sound like it was written specifically for suspense-building in a cinematic world.
A video uploaded to TikTok shows a young pianist named Robert performing “Look What You Made Me Do” at a London train station, tickling the ivories so expertly that viewers have compared the arrangement to Andrew Lloyd Webber—and encouraged the musician to “keep it up.”
“Oh the swifties are gonna go feral for this,” one early viewer felt certain, adding, “I’ll wait for them here 😌.”
“I’ve been summoned,” one quickly replied, while another pointed out how quickly seeing the impromptu performance in person “would stop [them] in [their] tracks.”
Swifties likened it to a number of other inspirations, with one suggesting that it “sounds like it’s from Phantom of the Opera 😍😍😍,” another thinking “it could have been in succession,” and a third writing, “Feels like it’s a movie score! Obsessed.”
The love was clearly unanimous, as someone else wrote, “This is evvverrrryythinnnggg.”
“what a talented young fella, keep it up kid,” another encouraged, while others joked that the young pianist and the seasoned performer must be in cahoots to plot the release of Taylor’s Version of reputation.
“If this isn’t the rep drop announcement, I don’t know what is!!” one commenter declared, while another joked, “This kids a plant!!! It’s an Easter egg for sure 🤡.”
