Taylor Swift’s State of Grace Available on iTunes

Posted on by

Taylor Swift Released Her Newest Single “State of Grace” off Her New Album Red. Taylor Swift released her newest single, “State of Grace,” from her upcoming album RED. Premiering just a week before the new release (on October 22), Swift fans get a taste of her new style. “State of Grace” is pretty catchy and has a fun beat. However, I’m starting to get a little worried that Taylor has traded in her country roots for a pop career. Now don’t get me wrong, I like when an artist tries out a new style, but I know some of us country music fans want a reminder of that “Tim McGraw” and “Teardrops on My Guitar” style we love. Check out Taylor’s new song on iTunes and stay with us as we get ready for the release of Red! Red, Complete Track Listing 1. State Of Grace 2. Red 3. Treacherous 4. I Knew You Were Trouble 5. All Too Well 6. 22 7. I Almost Do 8. We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together 9. Stay Stay Stay 10. The Last Time 11. Holy Ground 12. Sad Beautiful Tragic 13. The Lucky One 14. Everything Has Changed (Duet with Ed Sheeran) 15. Starlight 16. Begin Again

Faith Hill American Heart Lyric Video

Posted on by

Here Is The Lyric Video For Faith Hill’s Latest Single, “American Heart.” Faith Hill has released the lyric video for her new single “American Heart.” I’m not sure how I feel about this one, as the lyrics seem to be off. The song says “you can’t break an American heart,” but we hear about broken hearts every five minutes… I hope that Hill can come up with some songs that will make her comeback easier. Maybe some that will reach the levels that “There You’ll Be,” “It Matters To Me,” or “Breathe” did! Watch the video below and tell us what you think.

Taylor Swifts I Knew You Were Trouble Available On iTunes

Posted on by

Taylor Swift Releases Third Single, “I Knew You Were Trouble” via iTunes Today. Yesterday morning on Good Morning America, Taylor Swift debuted the third single, “I Knew You Were Trouble” from her upcoming album RED. Annnnnnnnnd, like the other two singles she’s previewed so far, this song isn’t country either. Its not a bad song, but there’s dubstep in it which I’m thinking country fans may not take too much of a shine too. I’m really wondering if Swift is trying to stay on the country platform at all. Take a listen to it below! Taylor Swift GMA Preview. <iframe width=”560″ height=”315″ src=”http://www.youtube.com/embed/iYyBhisa5TY” frameborder=”0″ allowfullscreen></iframe> Swift will be premiering yet another single on Monday, October 15th, and the album drops on Tuesday, October 22nd.

That’s what he was– not just for me, but for Willie and for a lot of people–just a helpful friend. If he knew you needed help with something, he could help you. He was there. And that’s what I want to be for the people in my life, same as Hank. He influenced me, not only as an artist and songwriter, but also as a person.” -Jamey Johnson Johnson will be busy over the next few days promoting the album, and next week he will announce details about his Fall tour.
