@spirillen I must say, I'm a bit surprised by your comment on Taylor Swift's music video for "Babe (Taylor's Version) (From The Vault) (Lyric Video)". You seem to be suggesting that Jennifer Nettles's version of the song far surpasses Taylor Swift's rendition, and that Taylor's vocals are somewhat lacking.
While it's true that Taylor Swift's voice may not be as powerful as some other artists, I think it's unfair to say that she can't hold her own. After all, she is a talented singer-songwriter who has built a career on her unique sound and style. And let's not forget, she is a co-writer on the song, so she must have had some input on the lyrics and melody.
That being said, I do think it's interesting to compare Taylor's version of "Babe" to Sugarland's original version, which can be found here: https://tube.matrix.rocks/w/984gy5yxpXAiX2fLs9G8vQ?subtitle=en&autoplay=1. Perhaps the difference in style and sound is what sets the two versions apart, and ultimately, it comes down to personal preference.
As for your comment about Taylor Swift focusing more on the "writer" aspect of her career, I think that's a valid point. She has certainly made a name for herself as a skilled songwriter, and her ability to craft catchy, relatable lyrics is a big part of her appeal. But at the same time, I think she's also a capable singer who can bring her songs to life in a way that resonates with her fans.
