I totally agree. Very talented, a true original and does amazing things for fans.


Disagree. She has painted herself as the victim in many failed relationships and then perpetuates the drama with her music. Someday she will look back and cringe.

Not crazy about her new album, but I think she's great. Have you ever heard Best Day? If you're a Mom it will make you cry. One of many great songs she has written. She is classy and is one of the few good role models in pop music.

When Taylor Swift was in town, amazing number of grow ups in my office went to go see her. She has a broad fan base.

What's with the group of models and actresses she brings around? Her girl gang? It's so cheesy.

writes her own songs?

I think she is a smart business woman as well as an artist who has evolved from a studio driven success (when she was just a young kid) as a country balladeer to her now pop-centered approach. You can find her annoying, not like her music, or her (really?) looks but her continued success - whether it is brilliantly finessed through a well executed marketing plan or from the worldwide appeal and popularity of her music but dang - shes a genuine and self-generated success and she is all of 25. I often laugh at myself for being for the very first time a real FAN (waaaay too old!) but for someone who came from a pretty normal/mid-to upper-middle class suburban family life to extreme success/$$$/fame at such a very young age I have nothing but admiration for her.

I think she has peaked, her music is catchy but she is reminding of some 80's artists that had a bunch of good music and then you never from them again.

In fact, I even convinced my daughter that she was annoying.
