HOW I CAME TO KNOW ABOUT TAYLOR SWIFT?
THE BEGINNING
It's all thanks to the deejays at Fly Fm who kept playing her song Teardrops On My Guitar every single day. No kidding! I felt in love with that song the moment I first heard it. That prompted me to find out who is this Taylor Swift.
I googled her and I was led to her official site and her MySpace page.
THE MISSION
I then went on a mission to find her album which was released in the US in 2006. That mission was a tedious task and I found out something about our record stores, Tower Records, Speedy, CD Rama, MPH/Border's music section and Rock Corner do not have her album in stock. The worst part was, they have no idea who Taylor Swift is. I would get responses such as Taylor who? How do you spell it? T-A-I-L-...No it's T-A-Y-L-O-R. Swift as in Suzuki Swift. How do you spell that? Yeah we are living in a generation that doesn't read much.
I found it strange that all of our local stores do not have her CD. Was it because it was release in 2006 and was out of print? I doubt it. I didn't bother checking other record stores in other states because if two fairly big cities do not have the album, how likely it is for them to have it in their store. Oh before I forget, I'm residing in a country called Malaysia.
THE ALTERNATIVE
So I had no choice but to purchase it through Amazon. Here's the amazing part. I ordered the CD knowing only one song. That's pretty risky. But that's me. If I like a certain song, I'd go all out to get the entire album. Original disc only. The 30 seconds preview of each song on Amazon did not help either as it doesn't determine whether I'm into that particular song or not. But I love Teardrops so it doesn't matter if the rest of the songs suck.
So did it sucks? Hell No! I absolutely love every one of them. Taylor's CD is the second most expensive CD that I've purchased. The first was The Corrs In Blue album. Same story.
THE ALBUM
Taylor's debut album is a mixture of Pop and Contemporary Country music. For me to choose a favorite is pretty tough as all of the tracks are just excellent especially Teardrops, Cold As You and A Place In This World.
THE SINGER
I love singers who write their own songs. Taylor Swift is no exception. She wrote 3 out of the 11 songs. The rest of it she co-wrote it with her dearest friend and her song writing soul mate Liz Rose and one song with Robert Ellis Orral and Angelo.
HER VOICE
Her own unique voice is simply mesmerizing. It's like walking on a clouded bed. That's how I would describe it.
This is one of the best album I've recently purchased. I've absolutely no regrets whatsoever.
and
Amazon Rocks!!! Why?
It's so easy to order and they are extremely efficient. Keep it up.
Taylor Swift Poster
Deluxe CD/DVD! New lenticular cover, 3 new studio tracks, Tim McGraw & Taylor's first phone call, behind the scenes footage from video shoots and personal behind the scenes footage edited by Taylor, all three videos, and performance and interview footage.Three years ago, a 13-year old Taylor Swift set out to be a star and moved from Reading, Pennsylvania, to Nashville. By 14, she had a publishing deal, and by 15, a recording contract. In these days of Bianca Ryan (and before her, Tanya Tucker and LeAnn Rimes), many are called, but few are chosen. Swift, it appears, is one of the chosen ones. Her vocal talent is modest, though sweetly affecting, her style seemingly influenced by the radio hits of early Sheryl Crow and Michelle Branch, and perhaps Cyndi Thomson. And at times, her youthfulness shows--she encoded messages in the lyrics of her CD booklet, starting with the name of the boy who cheated on her from "Should've Said No" (the album's strongest offering). But in writing or co-writing all 11 songs on this debut, Swift demonstrates remarkable maturity, particularly in crafting a hooky, radio-ready chorus. Though she sounds ridiculous looking back from the perspective of an 87-year old woman on "Mary's Song," to her credit she mostly writes about what she knows--unrequited high-school crushes ("Teardrops on My Guitar"), teenage angst ("Tied Together with a Smile"), and complete immersion in starry-eyed romance (her breakout hit "Tim McGraw"). Swift has such wistful charm and tunefulness that only a curmudgeon could dismiss her, and in fact, more than 60,000 fans lined up to grab this CD the first month of release. No wonder Rascal Flatts and George Strait added her to their tours. Look out, Carrie Underwood--there's a new kid in town. --Alanna Nash
