Music reviews of Taylor Swift
Music Review: Taylor Swift: An Amazing Debut!
Rating: 5 Stars
From the moment I got this CD, I absolutely loved it. I can deeply relate to some of her songs and completely respect the fact that she writes or co-writes all of her own lyrics. For someone who has really been affected by tracks such as "Teardrops On My Guitar" and "Stay Beautiful," I'm happy to know that these are actually her stories to tell.
This is my ratings of each track:
1. Tim McGraw - This song has great lyrics, but the music and vocals are just okay compared to some of the other tracks. Nevertheless, it's a good, sweet song. 4/5.
2. Picture To Burn - This song is great for when you're angry or just want to have fun singing along to something catchy. It's got upbeat music and hilarious lyrics. 5/5.
3. Teardrops On My Guitar - The most personal track on the album, for me. I've been in a situation similar to this, so I found it very easy to relate to. The music is beautiful and the lyrics are absolutely amazing. It's one of the only songs I've cried several times listening to. 6/5.
4. A Place In This World - A good song about finding where you belong. Pretty good, but mediocre compared to other tracks. 4/5.
5. Cold As You - This one is probably one of my two favorites, tied with "Teardrops On My Guitar." The music is great, the vocals are really good, and the lyrics are absolutely beautiful. Very deep; it's amazing that this song was written by a teenager! 6/5.
6. The Outside - At first, I didn't care for this song. However, after listening to it a few times, it started to grow on me. This talks about the very reason Taylor being writing music; being left out. Good music and lyrics. 4/5.
7. Tied Together With A Smile - This is probably my least favorite track on the album, because I can't really relate. Still, it's got a good message. The song is all about Taylor trying to help someone who is struggling with self-esteem - inspirational much? 4/5.
8. Stay Beautiful - This is one of the songs that I overlooked at first, but when I came back, I was surprised I didn't see how great it was. I love the lyrics and music, and her vocals are better than many of the other tracks here. Very easy to relate to. 5/5.
9. Should've Said No - A great song. Like "Picture To Burn," it's good to listen to when you're angry. The music is very good. One of the better showcases of Taylor's lyrical skills, considering this is one of the three she wrote herself. 5/5.
10. Mary's Song (Oh My My My) - Another song that grew on me. Beautiful lyrics about love that really does last together. 5/5.
11. Our Song - The most catchy tune on the album! The music is good and the lyrics are downright awesome. Great for anyone who's in a relationship and loving it. 5/5.
12. I'm Only Me When I'm With You - Another good song about being in a great relationship. The lyrics, as always, are great, and the music brings some variety to the album. 5/5.
13. Invisible - This song is also very easy to relate to. It's all about liking a guy who likes someone else - but she doesn't like him back. Good music and great lyrics. 5/5.
14. A Perfectly Good Heart - Not one of my favorites, but it isn't bad. The music, like "I'm Only Me When I'm With You," also brings something different to the album. 4/5.
15. Teardrops On My Guitar (Pop Version) - As someone who connected deeply with the original song, I didn't really like the pop version. If you're not a fan of country, you'll probably like this version better, but I thought that this was mediocre compared to the beautiful music of the original. 3/5.
Overall, it's a great album. Can't wait to see where she takes her career; this girl has real talent.
Description of Taylor Swift
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
