“Not today, Satan.”
Yesterday, Taylor Swift shared a video on her Instagram teasing a new version of her song “Delicate” and a cover of Earth, Wind & Fire’s classic “September.”
The cover was done as a part of a series by Spotify called Spotify Singles, where singers and bands cover classic songs from previous decades.

But many people immediately refused to listen to it.

They thought it was extremely disrespectful to both the band and the song, which is widely considered a soul and funk classic.
