Davis Eyes Kim Carnes Cover | Speak Now: World Tour Live (2011) \u201cBettee Davis Eyes\u201d is a song written and composed by Donna Weiss and Jackie DeShannon in 1974. It was originally recorded by DeShannon in that year, but it was made popular by American singer Kim Carnes in 1981 when it spent nine non-consecutive weeks on top of the US Billboard Hot 100. Taylor performed it during a 2011 concert at Staples Centre in Los Angeles and later released it on\u00a0her live album Speak Now: World Tour Live. The record consists of songs and performances recorded on various tour dates around the world from her \u201cSpeak Now World Tour\u201c.\u201dBette Davis Eyes\u201d is the kickiest left-field cover from Speak Now: World Tour Live. \u201cI\u2019d love to play you some music that I\u2019m a fan of that\u2019s come from L.A. \u2013 is that OK,\u201d Taylor asked the West Coast crowd, strumming her guitar. \u201cThis one came out in 1981 \u2013 eight years before I was born!\u201d The fact that she loves this classic ode to romantic espionage explains a lot. Table of Contents Background and Lyrical Theme \u201cBette Davis Eyes\u201d was written in 1974 by Donna Weiss and Jackie DeShannon, the latter of whom recorded the song that same year on her album New Arrangement. However, it was not until March 1981, when Kim Carnes recorded her version of the song in a radically different synthesizer-based arrangement, that \u201cBette Davis Eyes\u201d became a commercial success. Carnes\u2019 version of the song topped the Billboard Hot 100 in the spring of 1981 and held it for nine weeks. It was also ranked the biggest song of the year and the second biggest song of the decade in the US. Internationally, it topped the charts in Australia, Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Norway, South Africa, Spain and Switzerland. The song won the Grammy Awards for \u201cSong of the Year\u201d and \u201cRecord of the Year,\u201d and it also ranked at No. 12 on Billboard\u2018s list of the \u201cTop 100 Songs in the First 50 Years of the Billboard Hot 100 Chart.\u201d Actress Bette Davis was 73 years old when Kim Carnes\u2019s version became a hit. She wrote letters to Carnes, Weiss, and DeShannon to thank all three of them for making her \u201ca part of modern times\u201d and stated that her grandson now looked up to her. After their Grammy wins, Davis sent them roses as well. Lyrics Written by Donna Weiss &#038; Jackie DeShannon [Spoken Intro]There is some unbelievable music that has come out of artists who are from LA, did you know that? Like Los Angeles has put out so many bands and artists that I\u2019m such a fan of and I\u2019d love to play you some music I\u2019m a fan of that\u2019s come from LA, is that okay? This one came out in 1981: 8 years before I was born and I love this song, it\u2019s called \u201cBette Davis Eyes.\u201d [Verse 1]Her hair is Harlow goldHer lips sweet surpriseHer hands are never coldShe\u2019s got Bette Davis eyesShe\u2019ll turn her music onYou won\u2019t have to think twiceShe\u2019s pure as New York snowShe\u2019s got Bette Davis eyes [Chorus 1]And she\u2019ll tease youShe\u2019ll unease youAll the better just to please youShe\u2019s precocious and she knows justWhat it takes to make a pro blushShe got Greta Garbo stand off sighsShe\u2019s got Bette Davis eyes [Verse 2]She\u2019ll let you take her homeIt whets her appetiteShe\u2019ll lay you on her throneShe\u2019s got Bette Davis eyes [Chorus 2]She\u2019ll expose youAnd just knows youOff your feet with the crumbs she throws youShe\u2019s ferocious and she knows justWhat it takes to make a pro blush (Ay, ay)All the boys think she\u2019s a spyShe\u2019s got Bette Davis eyes General Information Artist Taylor Swift Album Speak Now: World Tour Live Released November 21, 2011 Recorded August 27, 2011 Venue Staples Center (Los Angeles) Genre Country Length 3:10 Label Big Machine Records Songwriters Donna WeissJackie DeShannon Producer Taylor Swift SPEAK NOW: WORLD TOUR LIVE CHRONOLOGY Drops of Jupiter (Cover) Bette Davis Eyes (Cover) I Want You Back (Cover) Song Covers \u201cSpeak Now World Tour Live\u201d Standard Edition (2011) \u201cSpeak Now World Tour Live\u201d Target Edition (2011) Official Live Audio<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":3144,"parent":3139,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"elementor_header_footer","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"site-sidebar-layout":"no-sidebar","site-content-layout":"page-builder","ast-site-content-layout":"full-width-container","site-content-style":"unboxed","site-sidebar-style":"unboxed","ast-global-header-display":"","ast-banner-title-visibility":"","ast-main-header-display":"","ast-hfb-above-header-display":"","ast-hfb-below-header-display":"","ast-hfb-mobile-header-display":"","site-post-title":"disabled","ast-breadcrumbs-content":"","ast-featured-img":"disabled","footer-sml-layout":"","ast-disable-related-posts":"","theme-transparent-header-meta":"default","adv-header-id-meta":"","stick-header-meta":"","header-above-stick-meta":"","header-main-stick-meta":"","header-below-stick-meta":"","astra-migrate-meta-layouts":"set","ast-page-background-enabled":"default","ast-page-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"ast-content-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-35656","page","type-page","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.6 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Bette Davis Eyes (Kim Carnes Cover) | Taylor Swift Switzerland<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"\u201cBette Davis Eyes\u201d is a song made popular by singer Kim Carnes.
