Taylor Swift and Zayn Malik Both Just Dropped Acoustic Versions of Their “Fifty Shades” Song

If you’ve been listening to Taylor Swift and Zayn Malik’s Fifty Shades Darker track “I Don’t Wanna Live Forever” non-stop (and the video may or may not be in your “most visited” pages in your browser history), you’re not alone. Good news: Taylor and Zayn have decided to spoil us with not one, but TWO acoustic covers of the song – and yes, they’re both THAT good.

While Taylor didn’t offer up the full song, she released a minute long clip of her rehearsing the stripped-down version of the track for her DIRECTTV Super Saturday Night performance. As Refinery29 points out, it reminds us a ton of T-Swift around her “Sparks Fly” days in the best way possible.

As for Zayn’s, we get to hear the whole thing, along with a brand-new video featuring him recording the song in the studio – and it has this subtly sexy feel to it that we’ve gotta admit we’re into. 

Just in time for Valentine’s Day, the Fifty Shades Darker hits theaters February 10 – until then, we’ll have these new versions of the duo’s sexy song on repeat.
