Ryan Adams is hard at work on the greatest single album to ever be created–a Smiths-inspired cover of Taylor Swift’s 1989. It sounds crazy, until you actually hear it. At least in these brief clips posted to his Instagram, he has completely reimagined the pop smash album in a way that only he can. 

Take a listen below to four clips of Swift’s songs as done by Adams including “Bad Blood,” “Welcome to New York,” “All You Had to Do Was Stay” and of course, “Shake It Off.” While no clips have been posted recently, it appears as if there is still work to be done as Adams has said he plans to add strings to “Bad Blood” along with other layers. At the very least, it looks like Adams is enjoying digging into these songs, constantly praising the depth of the songwriting. 

Listen below.
