I watched Taylor Swift acoustic performances from the RED album. The first song presented in the performance was “We are never ever getting back together”. This popular song features a variety of musical techniques. During the song Taylor Swift begins playing the song at a consistent speed. Later in the song at 2:04 she changes her to a faster tempo and at 2:29 returns to her original tempo. The faster tempo makes the song feel climatic‚ I feel that she is able to highlight certain lyrics or parts

Ask any pre-pubescent child who Taylor Swift is and undoubtedly they will give you a lengthy explanation of the country sweetheart and her list of infamous exes.

Here’s something that has been bugging me a bit recently‚ the idea that Taylor Swift is anti-feminist or that her songs present femininity in a negative light and she’s doing more harm than good. It’s usually what you hear before they say that she doesn’t write her own music (first problem with that‚ she does actually write her own songs‚ secondly a lot of others don’t) and that she dates a lot of guys (because attempts at actual relationships are somehow worse than musicians that have gone on
