 Something unexpected January 4, 2009
Jack Reacher (South Elmsall, England)
I'd never heard of taylor swift and the first time i ever heard her sing was on a tv in pc world. I couldn't get the song out of my head so i went home and started listening to her online. From that point on i was hooked. The thing with Taylor is she's different to most teenage girl singers out there. Her songs are extremely listenable and addictive. This album can appeal to most people as everyone can relate to it. Her voice is beautiful and she doesn't need gimmicks or computer enhancement to make it sound great. Its all Taylor. To sum up, BUY IT!! and you will love it forever.
 +1/2 -- The sound of young Nashville sounds like good pop December 18, 2008
hyperbolium (Earth, USA)
Swift's second album continues the appealing pop of her debut. Her teenage voice is still a bit reedy, but the brassy edge provides balance to the perfectly arranged and polished productions. It's hard to understand why Swift is lauded with country music airplay and awards, since her music and subject matter only occasionally feint to country music's roots (is that a mandolin playing on "Breathe" and an atmospheric hint of pedal steel on "Tell me Why"?). This isn't a criticism of a Nashville artists pushing into pop territory, it's a wonder how and why a talented pop artist such as Swift positions her music in country music channels. One can only assume Swift was weaned on the later works of Faith Hill.
Swift solves one of the main problem facing teenage artists by writing her own material. Eighteen's an awkward age for a songwriter, though: too old to sing cute songs of youth, but not yet old enough to really sing with the experience of age. She walks the tightrope with songs of longing, broken hearts, love, and preternatural experience that can speak to both aspirational teenage fans and older listeners, and she's convincing. Her nostalgic "The Best Day" is a standout with its gentle arrangement and warm memories of caring parents. Some may by tempted to lump Swift with the interchangeable starlets churned out by Disney, but despite the adolescent focus of her lyrics, she's emotionally deeper than Miley Cyrus or Selena Gomez, a better singer and writer than Britney, and she has grander artistic ambitions than all three put together. 3-1/2 stars, if allowed fractional ratings.

Taylor Swift's Fearless debuts at No. 1 on Pop & Country Charts
Taylor Swift owns the charts this week. Her sophomore release Fearless debuts at No. 1, with 592,304 copies sold. This is enough to earn her a No. 1 at the Billboard Top 200 albums as well. This is the largest opening U.S. sales week for a female artist in all genres of music, and puts her at No. 4 behind Lil Wayne, AC/DC and Coldplay for the biggest debut this year. Lastly, her single "Love Story" holds the No. 1 spot on the Country Singles charts for a second week.

I was a big fan of Taylor after her first album came out but this album is really disappointing. All the songs sound quite similar and are forgetable.
Beautiful and worth the wait! November 15, 2008

It took a lot of effort to get this album in England, but it was definately worth it! Every song is beautiful - the lyrics are often stunning and the beats are very catchy.
Standouts on the album for me are: Tell Me Why, a simple song, but one whos lyrics blow me away. Forever & Always is also a firm favourite. The passion in Taylor;s voice is amazing.
Fiteen and The Best Day will have you in floods of tears. I promise.
Breathe is a grower, as is The Way I Loved You, however both are still fabulous, and the lyrics again give them the edge on other country-pop songs.
Overall, I would definately recommend this album. I believe it's something that EVERYONE should have heard...haha, it really is amazing. Really.
