@@preranataylorsversion6883 Yes that get me to...it's not always about the really high notes..really pisses me off.. on shows like the voice..when they don't turn round till they hit a power note...if all you like is singers like that...good luck to you...Want to bet it wouldn't have been a famous song if Taylor had recorded it...I'd take that bet...and you would be paying out jedsterman 100%
here after "it's time to go" the lyric parallels!!!! better man: "the bravest thing I ever did was run" it's time to go: "sometimes to run is the brave thing"
One thing I've learned from this song is that you gotta love your self more and know your worth. He will not change and he'll never change no matter what so, love your self instead of giving love to someone who's just gonna hurt you. Wishing him to be a better man is good but, you should also realise that you deserved better and to do that you have to let them go
I think it was for the best she had let LBT to sing this. If she had sung this people wouldn’t appreciate this as much as now, they would only keep wondering who the song is about because you know it’s a Taylor Swift song. People never appreciate her lyrics/songs as much as swifties, they never see her real talent so I guess this is a great decision that she made.
This song hit me so hard the first time I heard it. Made me really look at myself and my actions and how it effected the one I loved. I was in the military and Covid restrictions kept us locked on base with all leave canceled for the better part of a year. It strained my relationship to the breaking point with us being in different states, the stress of the military and substance abuse. I hate who I was and how I acted. This breaks me when I hear it and makes me wish I had the strength at the time to have been a better man, she would have been the one if I had been a better man.
I salute you for that. I wish my cheating husband will realize it too to be a better man a good father to our children. It hurts me so bad it cuts like a knife inside me. 😭😭😭 End up crying...
@@laramaeapiladas3360 i never cheated but she accused me every day of cheating and I was pathetic enough to stoop low. I’m so sorry couldn’t have been a better man 🤦🏻🥹😢
Thank you for reminding me that I deserve a better man. All the lyrics match what's happening to me right now haha. He took me for granted but I knew my worth so I didn't chase him. Now, I just wish he were a better man. I LOVE YOU TAYLOR T.T
Jake Gyllenhaal, she really loved you man, All too Well, Babe, and this? And basically the whole Red album, and she still wrote that you could’ve been the one of you just tried a little bit more? Damn boi, you had it all, she wrote songs about so many people, some had albums dedicated to them, but just any song dedicated to Jake could over power them all and still she has an album on him
@UmmmI’m really going to be listening to the fans because there are some amazing ideas that they’ve had. I’m always looking on Instagram and Tumblr and Twitter and seeing what they would want. Like, some of the things that they’ve said that are really interesting to me are like I wrote the song ‘Better Man’ for Little Big Town, and … they took that song all the way [CMA Song of the Year etc.], but that I wrote during the Red - it was originally going to be on the Red album - so the fans are like, 'Maybe she'll put 'Better Man,' her version, on the Red album?' And I was like, 'That's an amazing idea!' So I’m going to be listening to what they are saying.
@@cyntheriaboafrostella1539 Take my word for it. It's all about Jake. And when he's asked about it he freaks out just like you would expect he would if he was in that Nightcrawler movie. Jake Gylennhall is the creepiest big time actor in Hollywood. And he is just like his character in Nightcrawler. He is exactly like that character. He will hurt you if ask him a Taylor Swift question. I'm not lying.
I had no idea Taylor actually recorded this, I had only thought she gave the lyrics to Little Big Town. This version is better than the album version where she doesn't sing.
I just wish He were a better Man.... .. You read my thought my heart Taylor ... This is what I always pray for my Man which He was not at all better......
😰Sucks when someone knows your vulnerability and sucks you in then turns into a monster, yet you still can’t stop letting them hurt you bc you think they’ll change (they won’t they’ll get worse and they’ll even stop apologizing and blaming you for their lies and abuse). Running is the best thing no matter how hard😞
there will always a time when you'll meet someone who's gonna ruined your everything. but still youll wished them that they'd be better man for you because you sacrifice so much for him.
Broke off a toxic relationship, she felt like my soulmate. But I'm young, yes it hurts knowing that was 11 months I'll never get back but they were well spent. Many lessons learned, she helped me discover myself and to develop mentally and emotionally when it came to love and relationships. Distance, age, and mental state play a role in it, lots of things do. I truly believe I was right for her, it just wasn't our time. Whether later in life or in another life, I believe that's my one true love.
Mystery never be a unsolved part of any discovery we never drop a loaded gun inner unsolved thoughts pampered but the song is ahead of mistry great singer gorgeous always.
This song reminds me of what I'm thinking about myself, when I randomly scream obscenities while driving in my work truck. I'm glad no one can hear me. 🤘😎
love how gigi is very natural,, she even keeps her natural crooked teeth,, this is nothing against about kendall or any celebs who has undergone a plastic surgery i just really want to ackowledge Gigi's natural beauty.
Most of who listened to this dedicated this song to their partners, but for me, this will be for my father. I wish he is better than who he really is. I just wish I had a happy family but it's the actual opposite, so I will promise myself that the man I will marry is not someone like him.
stef, i loved you. but i'm just sad now because i know i'm probably better off all alone than needing a man who could change his mind at any given minute. you would've been the one if you were a better man. i told you there is always a taylor swift song for everything. goodbye to 2 years and 10 months. 2018/12/19 - 2021/10/16 🍒
I always associate better man to my dad. He left us, me, just damaged. He beat me physically, mentally, and emotionally that yes indeed my life was better without him. But I grew old and seeked him, no matter how much pain I was carrying I wanted to know what it feels like to have a father. He got 2 more kids now. He never hurt them. He never pushed them nor denied them. I came along and got blamed for the anger I brought with me. He eventually ghosted me and erased me from his life. So yeah I guess I really wished he's a better man.
I'm so sorry that happened to you. Sometimes we hope we could change things for the better and that makes us greater than these people who hurt us. Because at the very least, we know how to try. It wasn't your fault those had to happen, we can't rectify things that weren't part of our responsibility to begin with. I hope you're doing better now.
@@ilikeitimnotgonnacrack9307 I know. I still hurt. The damage is really permanent. There's a night I couldn't breathe. I was crying because I couldn't understand why I'm catching my breathe and my heart beating hard and fast. I was just laying on my bed that night. Next day, I realized it was my dad's birthday. My body is reacting even before my conscious self realize it. I can never understand how he can be a father to my step siblings but never mine. I will forever wonder but I will never reach out to him again. The last time I did was January last year and he blamed me for not forgiving him and then ghosted me. Never again.
If Better Man ends up being on Red (Taylor’s Version) it will without a doubt be my most streamed song on Spotify
AGREE
So beautiful sight and sound
Same!!!
Its gonna be in Red (Taylor's Version) ♡
Bestie
No wonder it won a grammy so relatable I had no idea Taylor wrote this not surprised 💘
She the best songwriter!!!
Just made it 100
Wow!! I didn't know it won a Grammy!
Yet she wasn't the one that made it famous. She lacks the vocal talent.
@@preranataylorsversion6883 Yes that get me to...it's not always about the really high notes..really pisses me off.. on shows like the voice..when they don't turn round till they hit a power note...if all you like is singers like that...good luck to you...Want to bet it wouldn't have been a famous song if Taylor had recorded it...I'd take that bet...and you would be paying out jedsterman 100%
here after "it's time to go" the lyric parallels!!!!
better man: "the bravest thing I ever did was run"
it's time to go: "sometimes to run is the brave thing"
And in the middle of divorcing my high school sweetheart. These 2 songs hit home.
dear john: and I look back in regret / how I ignored when they said / "run as fast as you can"
Yes
@@ericabd6354 remember to talk it out before tossing each other out
Damn just wow
I want Taylor’s version on streaming platforms 😭
Better man (taylors version) will prob b gom red (taylors version)
OMG BESTIE SHE JUST ANNOUNCED RED TV i think were getting better man tv !!!!
@@faithrochel1494 yes we will
IT'S OUT TODAY!!!

Your comment touched me.
WE ARE GETTING THE OFFICIAL STUDIO VERSION I AM SCREAMING
Everytime I hear this song, there's a pain I felt in my heart, little voice saying I miss those days, this makes me cry 😢
Sending hugs. 😔
"You push my love away like it’s some kinda loaded gun" had me shook 🔥
i can't believe i am crying right now 😭
Roselyn Ramirez you’re not only here now
You're not alone. 😭😭
I can relate every single word of this song.
I wish she would have kept this song and I wish she could re-record it ♥️

Yep, I hope she's gonna re-record it in RED Taylor's Version including Babe & Sweeter Than Fiction!
Ok lm a new swiftie so why won't she re-record it??
IT IS COMIING 😭❤️

She didnt. Well she could have but her vocals are from when she ssng it at the bluebird cafw
@@brooklynrileylogan ah ok thanks. Great quality recording for a live performance, I couldn't tell it was a live performance.
I heard Taylor's version of this and loved it and didn't realise there were other versions. I guess I'm listening to them all now!
I always cry while listening to this song with Taylor singing it ♥️
I wish this was on Reputation but it's way too much like her older songs like the songs on Red and on 1989 to fit Reputation.
Jill durham it was written on red era
@@gracefully_livy no it wasn't. That was babe. Not betterman
It was part of the Reputation tour. th-cam.com/video/U079ggXxyns/w-d-xo.html
It suits red moreee...
@@jilldurham5498 yes it is written for red . Both of it are red rejects
my heart was 💔 by someone and this song is reminding me that indeed I deserved a better man🥺
I just wish He were a better Man....
.. You read my thought my heart Taylor ... This is what I always pray for my Man which He was not at all better......
It's so beatiful!!!
'i just miss you and i just wish you were a better man' i felt that

i really thought this song was written by Little big town and taylor jusy really loved it. no wonder she posted this on her ig
Me thinking this is the girl in tolerate it after she ran away from that man
why do i felt like it was written for me 😭😭😭 I'm trying my very best to be strong but after hearing this, I feel shattered again 💔
U ok or what?? X
LAST DAY TO LISTEN BEFORE HER VERSIONS OUT
Love how you did this I’m tired of watching the version where Scott won’t stop talking.
This song reminds me of a specific person.
Taylor is superb on this track she is brilliant at all she does
Sounds a lot like dear john
This is so true when you sit back and quit blaming her and taking your own advice
Perfect words
Before playing this song, didn't think that it'll make me cry 😢
She such a blessing
You're the loved that I will never forget but I have to forget. Thank you for being you.
This literally describes exactly how I’m feeling right now
Can't wait for Taylor's Version of this song
This should have been released on red album. Reminds me of come back be here and i almost do vibes.
Here again but this time, i can finally relate to it. 🥲🥲💀
Untill now I'm hoping for mv
This mashup belongs to Sanjay, it's not fair to not credit him th-cam.com/video/dm0nvMfazEA/w-d-xo.html
"No, you never thought I'd RUN."
"You would've been the one if you were a better man." 🙁😒😞
Breathe : You're the only thing I know like the back of my hand.
Better Man : I know why we had to say goodbye like the back of my hand 💔
Really see her sing this her next album
Mystery never be a unsolved part of any discovery we never drop a loaded gun inner unsolved thoughts pampered but the song is ahead of mistry great singer gorgeous always.
?? tf are you saying
I so love this verdion!
She wrote this song. Why didn't she record this heart wrenching song?
The lyrics💔
This song brings tears to my eyes every time I listen to it. I know I wasn’t a “Better Man” that’s why I lost my wife of 14 years😔
Favorite song🎶 😍
When you find "The ONE" it's the keeper!
I wish.. you were a better.. man...
love her
Could be my "let go" song 🥺💔
AAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH I LOVE LOVE THIS SONG
Great song
anyone here after it was announced from the vault???
this hit like a gun rn. It was so painful to wish someone t be better so you can still love him
This song reminds me of what I'm thinking about myself, when I randomly scream obscenities while driving in my work truck. I'm glad no one can hear me. 🤘😎
omaygad this hits so hard 🙂
Anyone else has hope that this might end up in Red (Taylor’s version)
love how gigi is very natural,, she even keeps her natural crooked teeth,,

well i love Pearl Jam's "Can't find a better man", i'm so out of it i might call this *Taylor's tribute* to the PJ party
Enjoy comments and remarks :" Think I'm a Better Man under the circumstances. Keep my pride knowing truth protecting my loved ones
Where's this from? When did she sing it with them?
I love the song, but prefer the Little Big Town version. Either way, great song!
Monika Case agree
Anyone imagined their father instead of special someone? coz it hits different:(
