I chose the Taylor Swift, because I like all their songs, as they are feelings you have it, the convirtir know a song. are also catchy because they have rhythm. the song that I like about it is to -blank Space- may be due to its rhythm or its meaning but whenever I hear it I start to sing without noticing. the phrase I like best is to -darlyng I'M a nigthmare dressed like a draydream- because you realize that people are not always as it seems.

3. Critics
Swift's studio album, Fearless, was released in November
2008. Swift wrote seven of the album's songs alone,
including two singles, and co-wrote the remaining six with
songwriters Liz Rose, John Rich, Colbie Caillat and Hillary
Lindsey. She co-produced the album with Nathan
Chapman. Musically, it has been said that the record is
characterized by "loud, lean guitars and rousing
choruses", with the occasional "bit of fiddle and banjo
tucked into the mix". The New York Times described Swift
as "one of pop's finest songwriters, country's foremost
pragmatist and more in touch with her inner life than most
adults". The Village Voice felt she displayed "preternatural
wisdom and inclusiveness", "masterfully avoiding the
typical diarist's pitfalls of trite banality and pseudo-
4. Influences
One of Swift's earliest musical memories is listening to her maternal
grandmother, Marjorie Finlay (née Moehlenkamp), sing at church. In
her youth, Finlay was a recording star in Puerto Rico and performed in
operas in Singapore. As a very young child, Swift enjoyed Disney
movie soundtracks: "My parents noticed that, once I had run out of
words, I would just make up my own". Later, her parents exposed her
to artists including James Taylor, Simon & Garfunkel and Def Leppard.
Swift has said she owes her confidence to her mother, who helped her
prepare for class presentations as a child.She also attributes her
"fascination with writing and storytelling" to her mother. Swift enjoyed
both reading and writing poetry and was particularly drawn to the works
of Shel Silverstein and Dr. Seuss. She remains interested "in any
writing from a child's perspective" and has cited To Kill a Mockingbird
as one of her favorite books.
5. Style
In the early years of her career, Swift's signature look consisted of
sundresses and cowboy boots. This fashion style is still copied by
many of the young fans who attend her concerts. At formal events,
Swift became known for "sparkly, beaded dresses". Her naturally curly
hairstyle is replicated by fans, and Swift has remarked: "I remember
straightening my hair because I wanted to be like everybody else, and
now the fact that anybody would emulate what I do? It's just funny."
She was asked by Vogue to cut bangs for a cover shoot in late 2011,
and now straightens her hair. Swift favors retro style and it has been
said that she has the look of "a nineteen-thirties movie siren ... red
lipstick, thick mascara." She was named an Icon of American Style by
Vogue in 2011. She has named Françoise Hardy, Jane Birkin, Brigitte
Bardot, and Audrey Hepburn as her own style inspirations.
