Kanye West. Or maybe someone she knew while growing up. Who knows. "Drunk and rumbling about how I can't sing..." I knew someone like this, once. In any case, she's proven all the naysayers wrong.

He was hoping to catch a glimpse but instead got her make-up and wardrobe team in his limo, who discussed the latest outfits they had chosen for her on their ride!pattyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12994187495930211144noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4682069868073233560.post-23386004484556372792010-10-27T19:09:34.254-05:002010-10-27T19:09:34.254-05:00i don't even think of her as country- she'...i don't even think of her as country- she's very pop to me. and i just think she's such a talent! and i admire that she really SINGS live, rather than using a back track like so many pop stars clearly do!<br /><br />anyway, thanks so much everyone, for chiming in and making it a discussion.Kerrihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12758783620564553796noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4682069868073233560.post-50150683923864652632010-10-27T13:54:29.845-05:002010-10-27T13:54:29.845-05:00My wife and I were just talking about Taylor last ...My wife and I were just talking about Taylor last night and like Valerie, I'm one of those who has said the girl can't sing.<br /><br />I saw a video of her yesterday playing live on some morning show and her performance only reinforced my idea of her singing.<br /><br />Be that as it may, I'll admit I kinda like her music, even with her voice missing a note now and again but what I really love about Taylor Swift is how she interacts with her fans and she seems to be quite aware of the role model she has become to young girls.<br /><br />And you're right, she can write a hella some lyrics.Roberthttp://blog.leapingpenguin.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4682069868073233560.post-66957124062806886902010-10-27T12:44:32.452-05:002010-10-27T12:44:32.452-05:00I first thought Taylor was another pop star that w...I first thought Taylor was another pop star that was going to be another one-hit (record) wonder...that is until I saw her perform and listened to her songs and I was really impressed that someone so young could write such great songs and perform them as well. As you said...especially in front of such huge crowds. I hope she continues to remain true to her spririt and not get lost in the fame. She seems to have a good head on her shoulders and a good family to keep her grounded. But I hope her heart continues to soar.

I'm one of those people. <br /><br />I like what you wrote though, and I do admire Taylor for all she's done in her short life, and for her songwriting and musicianship. She's certainly got more talent than I do. Plus, she was a good sport on Saturday Night Live. :o)Valeriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14594403703051382186noreply@blogger.com
