Free Music Notes for Taylor Swift
Free Music Review: Taylor Swift
Hit: 5 Stars
Taylor Swift's self titled debut album is surprisingly good for coming from a sixteen year old. The themes of the songs are just what you would expect from a high schooler. Her songs talk mainly about love and break-ups but have a quality to them seen among artists much older then she is. The musical quality is wonderful and she truly sings the soundtrack to every young girl's life.
While her themes may seem a tad immature to an older adult they were exactly what many young girls needed both then and now. Most of the music out there that younger girls are listening to isn't anything with morals, values or even taste. Taylor Swift's music has all of these elements. None of her songs are profane, and they all speak to real life situations. They all have good morals, none of them mention sex, alcohol, or drugs. While most of her songs are love songs, the context and situation has a very wide range. They consist of anything from revenge to hurt to idealistic love to having a crush on a friend. All of these are things that affect almost every young girl and Taylor Swift has a very refreshing take on it all. Even her revenge song, Picture to Burn, isn't vindictive. It talks about getting rid of old memories, and the things she didn't like about their relationship. Even outside the area of love she has a few songs, and while not as popular, they still send a really great message. One s about feeling and being alone in the world just trying to find where you belong, and another is about faking happiness and trying to put on a mask that your ok when you're not. These are huge issues facing young girls and they lyrics to Taylor's songs are encouraging and uplifting without being cheesy.
Taylor Swift Poster
Taylor Swift has been enhanced by the addition of 3 brand new tracks ("I'm Only Me When I'm With You", "Invisible", "A Perfectly Good Heart") and a pop version of the hit single "Teardrops On My Guitar"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
