WATCH: Teddy Swims' cover of Taylor Swift's hit 'Cruel Summer' is being called 'mind-blowing'

"The BEST cover of any Taylor Swift song."

Teddy Swims is officially Swiftie-approved after nailing a cover of Taylor Swift's ‘Cruel Summer’ on BBC Radio 1.

 Teddy brought his unique raspy tones to the beautiful piano-led rendition of the hit track off Swift’s album ‘Lover’.

Fans are absolutely loving Teddy's take on the track.

"Obsessed with Teddy Swims! This cover is probably the best I've heard, and I've always wondered how it would sound with a dude's voice," raved one fan on Reddit.

"Mind-blowing. I didn't know this guy, but this is hands down the BEST cover of any Taylor Swift song," said another.

A third fan agreed: "This song is a total bop, and I often forget how amazing the lyrics are, especially on this cover!"

We had the pleasure of experiencing Teddy's powerhouse vocals right here at More FM late last year. 

His live rendition of 'Lose Control' had the whole office hooked.

And speaking of which, Teddy dropped by our Breakfast Club to spill on his journey and share a surprising connection with New Zealand.

Turns out, Teddy's bond with New Zealand goes beyond a casual visit. After receiving massive love and support from Kiwis online, he decided to cover a song by Six60.

Just like the rest of the world, we’re definitely eagerly awaiting what Teddy Swims has in store for us next. Can I suggest a Teddy x Taylor collab?
