This same-sex crush version of Taylor Swift's "You Belong With Me" has gotten more action than a pass-around bottom this week, but I've resisted posting it due to my ridiculous bias against all-male acappella groups. They just think they're so cool with their voices! And they're singing pop songs! Not that I've ever been rejected from one or anything…
In any case, the boys from The University of Rochester's Yellow Jackets have come together for this "adorable" parody, and it's got a surprise ending that you'll kick yourself for not expecting in hindsight. You'll have to watch to find out!

To watch the clip, follow the JUMP:
If you have a similar bias against acapella, here's a version with Taylor's vocals. There's no surprise ending in this one.
The original video:
Boo they didn’t kiss in the end.
Also, was the jock using the cheerleader as his beard? She left the jock for that fat kid by the fence?! Inconsistencies!
they both can get the business
ok every time I feel like shit I’m watching that vid…made me smile big time, thanks dewitt.
surprise ending? paradoy? looked like the same ending to me (minus the kiss – boo!) and credit to the boys, they played their version of the video totally “straight” (for want of a better word) — that is, not for laughs.
question is though, why was their version of Taylor such a nerd? (cute though without the glasses) – i mean, Swift is a hottie even if playing nerd.
Awwwwwwwww…
Gay Taylor (Gaylor?) isn’t that cute. Also not the best voice :-/
could of used a better singer… but the fun ending made the video.
Would that HS have been like that… God, that made me feel old.
So not the way that scenario played out back in the bad old 70’s, but good for little fags now! U go girls! Go to the prom (with somebody other than your homely cousin), win the BMOC, YEA!!!!

the “nerd” character was too forgiving; i would not have taken that fucker back.
the “jock” could take his Looks and kick rocks with them

The “One Life to Live” version of Kyle Lewis and Oliver Fish is much better. Of course, you would need the background information of the soap opera to truly enjoy it.

Saw this a couple weeks ago – didn’t realize the actors were actually members of the a cappella group. Very professional video. The guy who plays the nerdy boy is adorable! Even with glasses.
