Free Music Review: Making an Impressive Showing In The Markets, a "must buy"
Hit: 5 Stars
(OOPS - I initially gave review this 5 stars. That was for financial potential. I'll still post this review but the rating is for the sound only.)
From Marketing Week -
This new sensation is burning up the Entertainment/Leisure markets; topping every prominent sales chart. This financial miracle was brought into being due to joint venture initiated by three firms contracted by Big Machine Records to produce a product worthy of their label.
Yu-San Corporation of Singapore, responsible for the sound production and refinement software, was initially contracted by Big Machine to modify their QXB15 SoundMastertm system for some post-production cleanup. This led to Yu-San's cross-sale initiative in conjunction with Hibro-Cyberdine Electronics to provide a miniaturized, portable version of their systems.
At this point, Yu-San and Hibro realized that their product was very marketable, but not pleasing to the eye. Foslo-Genentec, a genetics firm based in Oslo, was brought in to provide an appropriate bio-mass shell. For the past five years, Foslo has be constructing battle units for NATO, but were in financial trouble due to the failure of their "Lady Gaga" model. Their head of operations, T.C. Yutani, stated during his latest press conference, "We here at Foslo are very confident in our new `non-lethal' designs. Our researchers have tapped genetic archives all over the world. We have some exciting new products to offer." It is rumored that Foslo found the long lost "Juice Newton" sample and used it along with bobcat, cricket and emu gene splices in this project. "Exciting" indeed!
Obviously, Big Machine is very pleased. Taylor has a very high Q rating. She scores very high in the 13 - 17 male markets. Taylor scores a 130 on Males making 30-60K, a 145 with parents with kids 0 - 17. In fact one test subject remarked "duh, she's pretty-pretty", the extra cost for the bio-mass is paying off. Even better, her Q score for college age males is an amazing 106!! Due to success of this and their "Shakira" model, this cooperative is making plans to go public.
Taylor Swift is a hot stock and a "must buy".

Free Music Review: Taylor is certainly fearless
Hit: 5 Stars
I'm the same kid who reviewed Speak Now, the one who said that ''had to speak to get that CD'' and well I didn't buy this in Amazon either, but I got it in a store and I love reviewing in Amazon so why not? Anyway, this time I planned to buy it, I asked my dad and he said yes, so we went to the store (not the supermarket this time) and found it. Well, I bought the international edition, which features a different cover + 3 songs from her previous self-titled album Taylor Swift, so I'll review the 13 new songs + the 3 international additions, in total 16 songs. Extra Info will be added to SOME songs
1- Fearless - 10/10 It inmediately became my fave song, this is the title track, which Tay made about her first date, I think. I really love it and the music video.
2- Fifteen - 10/10 Another awesome song, where Taylor talks about her past, when she was 15.
3- Love Story - 9.5/10
4- Hey Stephen - 9.5/10
5- White Horse - 10/10 Love this one.
6- You Belong With Me - 10/10 This is Taylor's biggest hit, so yeah, this is one of the best singles of the album, and I love the music video
7- Breathe ft. Colbie Caillat - 9.5/10 Good song
8- Tell Me Why - 9/10
9- You're Not Sorry - 9/10
10- The Way I Loved You - 10/10 It's so amazing
11- Forever & Always - 10/10 As well amazing!!
12- The Best Day - 9.5/10
13- Change - 10/10
International bonus tracks which were featured on her previous album:
14- Our Song - 10/10 This was, is and will be an awesome song of her, and the music video makes the song come even more alive.
15- Teardrops On My Guitar - 9.5/10 It's pretty sentimental for me
16- Should've Said No - 10/10 Great end for the album.
So, this is my Taylor Swift's Fearless album review, I loveddd it, and even though not all the songs got 10/10, the final rating still is 5/5. If I get Fearless Platinum Edition and/or Taylor Swift album, I'll also post a review :).
Free Music Review: Taylor Swift is awesome!!
Hit: 5 Stars
Taylor Swift is back again with a new album with more great songs....
'Fearless' is about loving someone, and the best date ever
'Fifteen' is about well, being fifteen! and going through freshman year and being a teenager
'Love Story' is one of the greatest love songs ever written!! (if you haven't heard it... then... well, YOU SHOULD!) =)
'Hey Stephen' is about how a girl loves a boy and she's telling him why he should pick her over other girls...
'White Horse' is about a girl telling her boyfriend that they aren't living in a fairytale world
'You belong with me' is about a girl who wants to be with a guy but he's taken.... and how the girl is overshadowed by the popular girl
'Breathe' is about losing someone, but you have to go on without them
'Tell Me why' is about an abusive relationship
'You're not sorry' is about a guy telling the girl that he's sorry for the millionth time and the girl is finally saying "no, you're not sorry." and walking away
'The way I loved you' is about missing your ex-boyfriend, even though your current boyfriend is perfect
'Forever and Always' is the song that Taylor Swift wrote to her ex-boyfriend, Joe Jonas. it's about how a boy said he'd love his girlfriend forever, but now it's all gone down the drain
'Best Day' is about how great you feel when you're with the people you love
'Change' is about a team or group that has been unsuccessful but keeps trying and eventually rises and dominates..... it was one of the songs in the AT&T olympics playlist
p.s. just like the first album, in the lyrics-cover, if you write out all the capitalized letters...... you'll decode a message
you should buy it!! teens like me will be able to relate to some of the songs and even if you're not a teenager you'll love Taylor Swift's wonderfully, beautifully written songs =)
and if you're not conviced by my pursuasive essay...... watch the video on the upper part of this page.... it really shows Taylor's passion about music and songwriting....... or just get the first album if you don't have it!!! or her EP Beautiful Eyes :)
Free Music Review: Improvement over first album, great guilty pleasure album
Hit: 5 Stars
First of all, let's get some warnings out of the way
This album is NOT for you...
-If you don't like high school/college maturity level lyrics
-If you don't like "icky" love stories
-If you don't like music unless it's challenging and different
While this album doesn't have so called "deep" lyrics that talks about natural disasters and current state of government with metaphors, the lyrics here are very reflective and poetic. It's just very straight forward. Taylor wants you to know what she has in her mind, and even though some of the lyrics can be considered icky(I'm a college aged rock listening guy), some are also very heart warming(The Best Day).
To sum it up. Taylor Swift is like the average HS girl opening up to you. Except she does so with poetic lyrics, a beautiful voice and some great productions.

Your experience may vary, there is honestly not a weak track on the CD. Literally every song on the album can be your favorite song, it depends on which one connects with you personally, and I would be doing a disservice by pointing you to only a handful of songs on the album.
Get the whole album, listen to it and decide for yourself.
And if you don't love the album and are not bothered by one of the reasons I listed up top. I'd love to hear your reason in the comment section.
P.S.: Now to do something more stereotypical of my age/gender group. I'll go review Kill 'Em All by Metallica, or something like that:)
Free Music Review: Pure country-pop cotton candy sprinkled with hearts and rainbows
Hit: 5 Stars
Ironically, I thought the first Taylor Swift album was terrible [I got it for free, thankfully], but I heard her sing "Love Story" on the Country Music Awards, and although her vocals were weak, I found the song very catchy, so I picked up "Fearless" on sale. As cheesy and girly as it is, I LOVE this album, and have been listening to nothing else for the 2 weeks since I got it. The title track ("Fearless") is the first song on the album, and it's a strong opener. Though I must say, "Fairy Tale" would have been a much better title for this album since these lightweight tunes are about as 'fearless' as a puppy dog on a stormy night, and have tons of prince/princess/horses/hand-holding/standing outside of bedroom windows type references.
"Fearless" is a collection of songs that any teeenaged girl can relate to. Are the lyrics profound? Nah. The music innovative and brilliant? Nope. But nor does it need to be. The beauty of this album is in it's simplicity, and the best way to enjoy this cd is to take it for exactly what it is: the romantic musings of a young girl in [and sometimes out] of love, set to catchy melodies with memorable hooks. For a little old lady like myself [I'm 29], this is a pleasant throwback to high school; a time when you want so badly to fit in, and whether or not your crush smiled at you could make or break your day. It's fun to revisist those days through the eyes of a young singer for whom this stuff is recent reality.
I had every reason not to like this cd [not a *huge* country fan, not 18, never known "small town" life, etc.], but like a plain ol' peanut butter and jelly sandwhich, it just hits the spot.
Favorite tracks:
Fearless
Breathe
Fifteen
Love Story
