Betty - Taylor Swift - MP3 instrumental karaoke

"Betty," is a song from Taylor Swift's critically acclaimed eighth studio album, Folklore (2020). It was written and produced by Taylor Swift alongside William Bowery, a pseudonym for her then-boyfriend actor Joe Alwyn, and features additional input from producers Jack Antonoff and Aaron Dessner. Originally released as a single on August 17, 2020, "Betty" is an intriguing blend of country and folk-pop, underlining the singer-songwriter's flexibility across genres. In the song, Taylor Swift utilizes a fictional character's perspective – a technique not commonly seen in her prior work – narrating a story of teenage love and regret through the eyes of a boy named James. The use of harmonica complements the nostalgic, heartfelt narrative, deepening its emotional resonance. Shortly after its release,"Betty" debuted at Number 42 on the Billboard Hot 100 and Number 6 on the Hot Country Songs chart. Additionally, a live version performed at the 55th Academy of Country Music Awards was released to digital platforms on September 18, 2020.
