Pretending to love Swans must be an elaborate inside joke from all of these music critics.

She became a country phenom as a teenager because she wrote all her own songs and they really connected with the teen and tween demographic.
Many of her songs had a lot of "crossover appeal" since they were very poppy country music to begin with.
She has now fully crossed over the Rubicon into pop music and has a redone image that has shifted her from awkward, gangly, teenage girl to "sexy" confident woman. She still writes annoy, whiny breakup songs, though.

She puts a forth a clean image that little girls can look up to and their parents won't mind them listening to.
Very true. If I had a young daughter I would much more prefer her to listen to/look up to/emulate Taylor Swift than Miley Cyrus of Katy Perry.

The All American Girl image. America's Sweetheart. The Girl Next Door. It's got a good beat and you can dance to it?

Maybe she moved out of country because she doesn't have Carrie Underwood's pipes?

She is talented, but so are a whole lot of other people in the music industry. She knows how to promote herself, or has a team who knows how to promote her.

Maybe she PAID Kanye to interrupt her VMA acceptance speech.

She's the greatest female entertainer probably of all time if she continues at this pace which she likely will.

She writes her songs, and very well.

She is a one of a kind and once in a generation talent.



perfect example of her appealing to the lowest common denominator demographic.

I think Ultimate Hog is like 12 years old, so it's OK for him to be a fanboy.

I will give the CMA's credit on this.....Brad Paisley's tongue in cheek comment about country music having big shoes to fill by Swift's departure was $$$ (Swizzle has canoes for feet).

Has that "little girl" look that some men really dig. Kinda like you're fricking a teenager before daddy comes home from work. You pull out because she doesn't even know what birth control is yet and end up jizzing all over her math homework. Then while you're cleaning it up you stumble upon a love letter written to her by Justin in homeroom and fly into a rage because if she's keeping something like that then there must be something going on, or maybe she secretly wants there to be. So you smack her around and then go home to the wife and kids and pretend like nothing happened. At 3am you sneak down into the kitchen to have your nightly glass of whiskey as you cry and wish you had the balls to finally kill yourself.

She is appealing to the retarded masses which is unfortunate because she is a talented musician who is definitely capable of writing better songs and she can produce albums as well.


I don't know a whole lot about her, but this seems to be true. And I've heard some of her stuff that's pretty solid, well written and performed pop music (that's not necessarily a bad thing).
