I was indifferent to her at first but I grew to so respect her ! And I’m an old woman !

Karma is my favorite song of hers!

melodically and lyrically.

She has such a huge library of songs. Really worth exploring, I think.

Here is a performance from SNL a few years back. It's a song she wrote back in 2011 after a relationship with someone who was 9 years older. Play it with the captions. She's a really great songwriter

But she's great at wordplay, playful misdirection, allusion, and rhyme structure. Her music rewards careful listening, even the pieces that are "just breakup songs."

She really is on a high level.

She has SO much talent, you know she’s capable to do any musical genre.
I love her music now but the men in the family mostly dismiss pop music (despite the fact that they wore Swiftie bracelets for a full year! 💗 )
Let her turn her taken to a rock album, we will see a new appreciation for her talent. Plus it would just be fun to hear.

When the "Top 885 Songs List of the Century" played last September on Philly Public Radio channel WXPN (which was an EXCELLENT user-voted countdown done over like the whole week, I wish all DU'ers who insist there's no great music being made anymore had listened to it ) there were a number of Taylor songs that made the list, but All Too Well was IIRC her highest charting track, think it was in the top 30 or so.

It's honestly a great song. I've by no means heard all her stuff, but my personal favorite of the ones I know is definitely this one. Mainly cause I absolutely love the video

I hide it because it can seem weird for a 50-something dude to sing along with All Too Well, but try and stop me.

70 year old man. All too well is so good.
She is just an amazing person.

I just scrolled back up to watch. I needed that. It made my day. That performance on SNL made me love that song.
So great to have such a role model for millions of young girls, that are being exposed to the worst of us. Father of a daughter, now 35. I raised her alone after her mother died when she was 10. I would hate to be doing it under this current embarrassment.
(Just mastered “Daughters” on my newest Taylor 814, this week) I been playing Taylor’s for 20+ years. Swift was in one of my earliest Wood And Steel mags from Taylor before she was known. A young teen. On a Taylor guitar. I knew I liked her then.
She is an American treasure.
Thank you for the video.

I'm sorry for your family's loss. I don't know how I could have done it with my now 20 and 17 year old daughters without their Mom in the mortal plane with us. May your love endure all.

I became a Taylor swift fan on a ride to school with them and their classmate bopping and singing in the back seat to "Mean" one day when they were like 10 and 7. They knew the words and were just jamming. I had to hear more.

Taylor is a real rock star in this one. Kind of a Neil Young vibe.

Thank you. Another great performance.

Jung hints at that with anima and animus, i think. Some Jungian writers describe it that way.
It is joyful to widen our souls to what it means to be fully human.

Watching because my 2 daughters (39 & 40+) are total Swifties and even at 70+ I can grok along






✌🏻

She is such a kind beautiful person

Thanks. She always leaves me feeling good.

she and Dolly did some duets together!!?
