And gives you a sense of 'insecurity' that you don't feel anywhere in Amsterdam.
Literally, in every part of Amsterdam, except the RLD, I felt like I could just walk freely while being high as fffffffffffffffffffffffffuck on truffles, and I didn't feel like I could get robbed or anything bad could happen to me. And my average walk on amsterdam was 20-25km (Again, high as a ffffffffuck).
The chicks are all 10s tho, it was surreal seeing so many 10s

Your inbox is full. I think her style is really good and shows a lot of restraint.

She says she's Southern Frugal and is open about growing up on a very frugal diet but she has good taste and an admirable work ethic. It's a strange mix.

Sorry. I would delete some but I don't have the heart to read the message titles tonight, in case I remember something that makes me sad.

Tay Tay's new song is trash. I haven't even watched the video. Shake it Off didn't do it for me either though as a lead single and I wound up loving 1989.

I'm not so sure about that. I suppose once she's older if she transitions back to the country stuff that there'll always be an audience. I'm reading this book called "the hit factory" and it mentions that most of Taylor Swifts hit songs are written by the same Swede who wrote for Britney Spears and the Backstreet Boys and shit... That kind of writing doesn't usually age well.

She co-writes considerably more than Britney or the backstreet boys though.

Ryan Adams covered one of her albums. I can't see him covering Bye Bye Bye or Gimme More or anything

I watched the lyric video before the official one and there were a few great lines.

I rose up from the dead. I do it all the time.

There was a great piece in the Guardian about her. Or the Atlantic, I can't remember. She just fought and won that landmark court case though. She's a feminist hero at this point.

It was the Guardian

The extent of her co-writing is to be debated. Often times songwriters will just cut the singer in for the privilege of having them do the song. If you look at Swifts biggest hits they were all done under the Nsync/Backstreet Boys writer... And he doesn't co write with singers.

Sometimes a singer can elect to change a few lyrics here and there and that often counts towards a song-writing credit. But don't be under the assumption that she's sitting there with the writer creating the song with him.

I think they're attempting to define "the rest of her career," Omebre.

Doesn't that mean this writer has therefore demonstrated an ability to fairly consistently put out charting music since the end of the nineties?

Unlike Britney, T Swift has geniune musician chops and a fan base that won't go away no matter what. At least let her get out of her 20's first before you think it's over.

Lol this is also debatable. Being able to strum a few chords on the guitar doesn't constitute as musical chops. She's a fundamentally bad singer and uses that auto-tune device on her mic at all live shows.

Yeah, he's great at writing disposable pop music. Songs like Baby Hit Me One More Time and Backstreets Back aren't really enjoyed by anymore as anything more than a novelty today.

of all possible words to use, alluding to late 90's pop music as "novelty" in 2017 is pretty hilarious.

No it doesn't, but playing like this since the age of 13 does:





Pretty much in the John Mellencamp mode of guitar playing. It's not about making it cry or sing, it's about a tool to write songs with, which most of the pop diva's can't touch. She can play piano and banjo fairly well also.

Taylor Swift is the biggest pop star of her generation and she will continue to fill arenas until she dies or the world dies, which happens sooner.

this is pretty steep tho

as Tay Wiff herself broods in one of her compositions, "nothing lasts forever, but this is gonna take me down"

I'm neither a fan nor hater and she's got as catchy tunes as anyone. Its just she's such a lightning rod for some strange criticisms at times.

That vid i posted i saw randomly once and didn't even know she played guitar, let alone long enough to have some "evolution" with it.

So I checked it out and at 13 yo she's right on it, and I'm like, "Oh, she's not just a Cover girl, she's actually a musician." 2 bars in was enough for me, didn't really need to see the rest.

and yeah of course she is talented and has written a lot of her own material (Speak Now which was obviously a huge album for her has no co-writers and some of her best music is on it...)

fuzzy is just mentally insufficient and views everything as a sporting event, pick your team kids!
