Taylor Swift is my favorite country pop singer. When she came onto the scene I thought her music was a little too young for me, but when she released Speak Now in 2010 I was hooked. I immediately loved the song "Mean". She is known for coyly putting secret meanings in her lyrics. I'm not going to presume to know who "Mean" is about, but i certainly love the gist of the song. It has been widely publicized that the song "Dear John" is about John Mayer and their split but now it's being said that "The Story of Us" is also about him and an interaction they had at the CMT awards. The song "Back to December" is about her lost love with Taylor Swift. I enjoy how personal her songs are, it's very easy to relate to.
More recently she did two songs for The Hunger Games Official Movie Soundtrack, "Safe & Sound" featuring The Civil Wars and "Eyes Open". I youtubed the video of "Safe & Sound" and it is excellent, very reminiscent of The Hunger Games Trilogy. I would definitely recommend checking it out.
Thanks for reading, Catharine

I have 2 really good friends who are obsessed with Taylor! So by association I'm also a huge fan, she is adorable, and a great musician. She is very humble which in my opinion is what keeps her so down to earth and modest. I really hope she can grow and keep writing the great songs she has been doing over the past few years.
