Taylor Swift opened the 2021 Rock & Roll Hall of Fame induction ceremony with a performance of Carole King’s “Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow?” Swift, alongside Jennifer Hudson, will be presenting King for her induction into the Rock Hall. Watch the performance, as well as some of Swift’s induction speech, below.
King had previously been inducted into the Rock Hall with her former husband Gerry Goffin, with whom she wrote hits like “The Loco-Motion,” and “One Fine Day,” as well as “Will You Love Me Tomorrow?” (She is now being inducted as a solo artist.) The first version of “Will You Love Me Tomorrow?” was recorded and released by the Shirelles in 1960. King later released her own version on 1971’s Tapestry.
