Taylor Swift covers are all over the internet, but only the special few actually get noticed and appreciated by the pop star herself. Musicians Louisa Wendorff with Devin Dawson put together a mash up of two 1989 songs "Blank Space" and "Style" and the video made it back to Swift.

Taylor Swift ended 2014 on a high note remaining No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 for the sixth straight week with "Blank Space." This becomes her longest streak at No. 1 with "Shake It Off" being No. 1 for four weeks and "We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together" spending three weeks at the top back in 2012.
Swift keeps breaking new ground with her new album 1989. She has become the first female artist in the history of the Billboard Hot 100 Singles Chart to replace herself at the No. 1 spot.
Swift's new single "Blank Spaces" rose from No. 13 to No. 1 to replace her initial smash single "Shake It Off". She becomes the first woman in the Hot 100′s 56-year history to do this and the 10th act to do so overall, following the Beatles, who scored three toppers in a row ("I Want to Hold Your Hand," "She Loves You" and "Can't Buy Me Love") in 1964; Boyz II Men (1994); Puff Daddy (as he was then billed) (1997); Ja Rule (2002); Nelly (2002); OutKast (2004); Usher (2004); T.I. (2008); and the Black Eyed Peas (2009). (Puff Daddy and Ja Rule each doubled up thanks to a lead and featured role.)
With "Shake It Off" and "Black Space," Swift is the only artist with two Hot 100 No. 1s this year. It is also a rare honor for the first two singles of an album to top the Hot 100.
Taylor Swift's 1989 album was No. 1 for a third straight week on the Billboard 200 chart. This is only the second album to spend three weeks on top of the list, the other being the Frozen soundtrack, which was on top for 13 nonconsecutive weeks.
