The singer honored the famous ’70s band with a slower rendition of the tune that implements guitar acoustics and banjo sounds.
The music, along with another titled “Delicate,” was added to Spotify this week as a part of the company’s Spotify Singles series, which invites artists to record two songs its in-house New York studio. The first is supposed to be a new recording, while the second should be a cover.

A few called it “disrespectful” and declared she did not do “September” justice.

In fact, several believed many of Swift’s critics were overreacting. They thought the hate was unnecessary and challenged non-supporters to simply not listen.
