A US music label has forced a YouTube video of NSW Premier Mike Baird reading his Twitter hate mail to be taken offline, citing "copyright claims" .

Mr Baird showed his comic side on Thursday by mimicking US talk show host Jimmy Kimmel's popular videos.

A video posted by Mike Baird has been pulled off YouTube due to a copyright claim.

The Premier tweeted a video of himself reading his mean tweets while Everybody Hurts by R.E.M. and Shake it Off by Taylor Swift were playing in the background.

Warner Chappell owns R.E.M's music, although Swift is signed on to the Big Machine Label Group.
