As fan of pop culture, I read today that Taylor Swift is releasing another album. This woman is undoubtedly a workhorse, one of the most ambitious artists working today.
She has enjoyed astronomical success in her (short) life thus far. I read something about her that always impressed me, how she planned to walk away from her first recording contract because the label wanted her to become a special artist, which she didn't want to be. My point: she believed a lot in her talent. She was willing to take a big risk because her instincts, or just her super healthy self-esteem, told her not to be afraid.
I love hearing this story. I think it's extremely inspiring and reminds me that Taylor Swift is probably an extremely talented person. Although I have never interviewed or rated her, she seems talented not only musically, but also with her boundless energy and motivation, and her ability to remain seemingly positive and optimistic in an industry that can devour its young people.
Why do you need to intuit Tylor Swift appeal?
Taylor Swift is easy for some to intuit because I feel she is a woman who had a father who continually supported this young woman as she grew up. When you see someone excel in Swift's cohesive, organized way, there's no other way to explain her persistence and psychological resilience - this is a girl who had an authority figure who relentlessly supported in his past. I have no doubt that someone was there every step of the way for her, imitating her, saying, "Yes, you're good." We should all be so lucky.
Where I have a problem with Taylor is with her music: the insistence on singing almost nothing but unrequited romantic love, as if she, and the audience she sings for, were caught in a high school dance, invisible but desperate. make the boy like me. It's no surprise that one of his biggest hits is "Romeo and Juliet," as the notion of impossible love permeates much of his music. For all her talent, intelligence, and common sense, I find her surprisingly naive, or just caught up in her development, when it comes to romantic love.
