Do you know why I love Taylor Swift? It's all about the emotion behind the songs she writes. She knows what she's singing about, and she puts her all into the song, to get the point of the song across to people. She writes in such a way that you can just dive into her head and know what she's trying to say. It's amazing. I wish I could do something that awesome.
She might not have the perfect voice, or the most sophisticated music style, but really, I don't think her songs would be as good if she didn't perform them herself. She honestly understands what she's saying in her songs, which I guess you could say about a lot of other artists, but her lyrics mean more than most of the things in pop culture (partying/sex/alcohol).
I dunno, I just appreciate the fact that most of her songs are things that I've always wished I could say. Most of the songs on her Speak Now album I honestly can relate to, which I dunno if that's weird or not, but it's true. I mean at some point I've felt pretty much every single one of the emotions she puts across in music, much like my connections with David Archuleta's music.
She makes my top ten list of famous people I'd love to meet one day for that very reason. She's just so personable and personal with her songs it's incredible. Speak Now is a very specific album, each song geared towards someone in her life. A little hard to relate exactly to something so particular, but it's my favorite album so far. Do you have a favorite song yet?
ReplyDeleteShe hopped into my top ten as well. I actually feel like I can relate to most of the songs on Speak Now...not all, but a lot of them, do bring a person in my life to mind. Speak Now the song is my favorite, and so is Mean. I find myself skipping to those ones. I also love Back to December...and The Story of Us...and let's just say the whole album.
ReplyDeleteSpeak Now is pretty good, and Mean just makes me laugh every time. Never Grow Up makes my mom cry. But I think my absolute favorite might be either Better Than Revenge (TAKE THAT, JOE JONAS!) or Long Live. A rockin' album, all around.
