Cheryl Craigie has a unique and emotional interpretation of Taylor Swift’s song “I’m Only Me When I’m With You”. While the original is upbeat and fast-paced, Craigie slows it down and adds a more emotional touch to it with the help of piano accompaniment. This change makes the lyrics stand out in a different manner and gives the song a more personal and grown-up feel.
This release shows that Craigie is a talented singer-songwriter. This is because she has been able to venture into different fields while at the same time maintaining her identity. The passion that she puts into her voice is something that cannot be faked and is very touching. I like her version of the song because she changed the tempo and made it more slow and thoughtful, which makes it sound familiar yet fresh.
With this cover, Craigie once again demonstrates her talent to touch the hearts of her fans through songs that inspire. Want to hear more? Check out the artist on Instagram!
