The new Taylor Swift CD, Speak Now, is out and I finally got my hands on a copy! I haven't talked about Taylor Swift much in my blog, I've noticed, but can I just say that I love her music? See, I know that Taylor Swift may not have the most amazing voice out there, but I don't believe that's the reason why she's so famous. She's a great role model for kids, she's an exceptional song writer, a great performer, and I mean, her voice isn't bad either. The main reason why I love her though is her lyrics. Every song she sings is about something that everyone in the world can relate to at some point in their lives. And! Every song is based on her life experiences. I've read multiple times that her songs are basically her diary entries. This fact alone makes her songs so much more enjoyable for me because it makes each song so much more personal. She really truly believes and has experienced everything she is singing about. Which, I guess, causes her fans to be mostly girls instead of boys. Another reason why I like her though is because she's not afraid to be herself. She's not afraid to sing a song about a guy who broke her heart, even if that could cause other guys to be intimidated by her. I love it.
Now, I would gladly go through my favorite songs on this album, but I honestly don't think I can pick them. I love every song for a different reason and that's a lot of songs... Basically, I think everyone should just go out and get their hands on their own copy and pick their own favorites, cause I can guarantee everyone will find one they like.
Well, that's it for this post. Just wanted to explain my love for this album a little bit and encourage everyone else to listen to it a THOUSAND times like I plan on doing :)
I love your blog design! Each post looks very interesting, with the images along with bright text formatting. I'm not much of a country fan but I still feel compelled to read the content. It looks interesting and simultaneously very organized, which is a big plus.
ReplyDeleteThe voice you use in your writing is both casual and informative. It makes the reader feel that they can relate to you and trust your judgments regarding music. Good work in general!
