Review:

I personally as a swiftie like this album, but only like, not love. This album has a beautiful lyrics that came from the heart, and she could pour everything into it, that's great. The songs basically tell you a kind of heartbroken love story of Taylor Swift in her early life. The thing that makes me don't really into this album is, the tunes are kinda monotone, it's too boring, it's like you only want to hear each songs once, and then that's it. It doesn't have that power to make people curious about how the songs are going to be like, we can already predict how the chorus or the bridge going to be. But, as a new country artist and a new comer, she did very well with this album. 8x platinums are not easy to get, and it's even harder to be #5 when there are the other 199 albums to be compared with. Well every person has their own opinion to rate this album, and this is mine.

For the music videos, I love Tim McGraw and Our Song. Tim McGraw is like trying to tell the world, try to introduce the world that, this is Taylor Swift. It has great connection between the tune, the lyrics and the video. Our Song serves a different kind of video than Tim McGraw, it's more like Taylor introduced herself to the world in a different point of view. It's like she was trying to say, this is me, Taylor Swift, in a more cheerful way, this is who I am. I can see how she enjoyed being in that video, her smile, her clothes and everything are just very well served and very well connected to the tunes. Picture to Burn is also cool, but I think it doesn't look like Taylor. Taylor on that video is so destructive and aggressive. She's way too aggressive as a new comer, it's just so not Taylor Swift, you know. But that video is great to show the world like, "I can be crazy too you know, I'm not as calm as it seems, watch out!". It turns out to be true, she can be as crazy as she is today, and she doesn't care about it at all.
