Tune in Tuesday for Taylor

October 23, 2012
Seeing as Taylor Swift's new album "Red" just came out, I felt it only fitting that today's Tune in Tuesday was her new hit. I'm going to be honest with you, though... Taylor Swift is not always my favorite artist. Just hear me out before you go all crazy and never read my blog again! Here's my story.

When I went to BYU Provo for a semester in 2010, I had a roommate who all she listened to was Taylor Swift. If that wasn't enough to turn me off to T-Swift, it was made worse by the fact that this roommate only ever listened to the sad songs and would declare, "Taylor gets me! This describes my life perfectly. Oh woe is me!" Okay, so maybe she didn't say that last sentence, but she may as well have.

Anyway, my point is, this turned me off to Taylor Swift because I felt like all she sang were sad songs and I didn't want to listen to sad songs! I wanted to  listen to happy songs!

Well, as time has past and I've forgotten my distaste during that period of my life, I have grown to like Taylor Swift more. I feel like she's one of the few good role-models for young girls and I'm impressed by her artistic abilities. I'll just stick mostly to her happy songs.
