Swift lands at #45 and is described by the article’s author, Rob Sheffield, as “one of the few genuine rock stars we’ve got these days, with a flawless ear for what makes a song click“. There are a lot of folks that think that Taylor doesn’t quite qualify as country anymore because of how much she blends with other genres. It is impossible to deny though that she has achieved an extreme amount of success in a short period of time, and has kept a cool head while doing it. So, cheers to her!

Taylor Swift’s Latest Collaboration

Taylor Swift Joining Ed Sheeran For A Collaboration? Taylor Swift was seen at a Santa Monica recording studio over the weekend with British singer/songwriter Ed Sheeran. It has not been confirmed but perhaps they were working on a new song together? With Sheeran’s style and background we can’t help but think this “possible” new tune will not be country. Below is the official lyric video for her single “Eye Open,” which is on the soundtrack of the Hunger Games. Although I do find the song to be enjoyable, it is far from her earlier hits that had a more country sound (Our Song, Tim McGraw, Picture To Burn, Teardrops On My Guitar). So what do you think? Is Taylor trying to turn her career into a more pop one? Is she just writing what she feels? Does it even matter? Comment and let us know! Below “Eyes Open” is her very first single “Tim McGraw.” Watch and compare the differences.

Kevin is an 18yr old from Somerdale, NJ, who is suffering from leukemia. Swift’s invite comes in response to the Facebook campaign created by McGuire’s sister. The teen hoped that Taylor would attend his prom with him, but in a post written by Swift, she stated that she couldn’t make it to the prom.
