Music Appreciation
Related: About this forumI confess that I didn't know much about Taylor Swift's music other than the repukes hated her,
so, I decided to check her music out and this is what I found:
I am now a huge fan of Taylor Swift and her sticking it to the repukes and pissing them off is a bonus in my book.

(1,232 posts)Detractors point out that she doesn't have a great voice. That's true, but she writes great songs with clever lyrics. She knows how to make an emotional connection with her music. Best of all, she is not a manufactured pop idol who just churns out what the record company dictates.

(12,429 posts)but the younger generation, including my grand children, great grandchildren's love her music and her stance on Been-A-Dick Donald and his treasonous band of MAGAt's is what will win us the election in 2024.

(102,360 posts)rely on their singing, dancing, and other talents--accentuated by eye-catching costumes--do the opposite. It seems they just go with excessive nudity and trashiness--especially in their overwhelmingly vulgar lyrics and language. I'm no prude but that does nothing for me.
Admittedly, I'm not yet into her music, but I'm quite willing to give her credit for her maturing talent and give her an extended listen. And her politics... just a bonus.

Several girls asked for me to play Taylors songs with the words and they sang along. I was surprised at how her songs have positive messages about loving yourself and not letting things get to you.

(2,225 posts)Young woman. I admire her, her spunk and her courage and Im glad that my grands and young people everywhere have her as a role model to look up to. And for what its worth- I think she has a beautiful voice and is a great singer and talented songwriter. I was lucky enough to get tix to her Eras show in Indy this coming November. My 13 yr old grandson is a huge fan and Ive got to say Im looking forward to seeing the concert with him even if we are in the nosebleed section! Thank goodness for Jumbotrons! We are in the process of trying to find a hotel for the night and somewhere to park for the concert. Her shows are so huge and so popular its gonna be crazy!!
