However, it has become part of their set again in recent years.Īnnouncing that Speak Now would be her latest re-recorded album in May, Swift wrote on social media: “The songs that came from this time in my life were marked by their brutal honesty, unfiltered diaristic confessions and wild wistfulness. In 2018, Williams announced that she and the band would no longer be performing the track live. Those words were written when I was 17… Admittedly, from a very narrow-minded perspective.” I haven’t related to it in a very long time.

Williams has previously distanced herself from the track after taking issue with the line, writing on Tumblr in 2015: “‘Misery Business’ is not a set of lyrics that I relate to as a 26-year-old woman. Paramore’s 2007 track features the lyrics: “Once a whore, you’re nothing more / I’m sorry that’ll never change.” Me listening to the lyric change in better than revenge /TWFg2KS4Ea
