She did Right Round with Flo Rida last night.

I do like her version of the Coldplay song.

“I definitely think about a million people when I’m getting dressed in the morning,” Swift says about being a role model.

I always liked "Enchanted" a lot but recently it's really hit me hard, remembering a night with somebody. I cannot confirm or deny that it made me teary while in a car during a rainstorm.

She went all 70s actress on us:

'70s actress? She looks flat-out like a model there. Good for you, Swift/Vogue, and your team of stylists and make-up artists.

she is the best

she is the best at being terrible

She seems like a really nice person who makes really unremarkable music.

some haters here

she's on leno tonight

I dig her new look w/ bangs

but I'm not sure how much I dig this song

i didn't like it at first but now i think it's pretty good

amazing song

way better than the follow-up "eyes open"

"eyes open" is not very good

"safe & sound" can be completely devastating if you're in the right headspace for it

Great look and great song.

the chorus of 'eyes open' is so wooden and un-taylor like

"Ours" is all over my local country station & ah ha I see why! it's #1 on the country charts this week. I thought it was slight on first listens but like e.g. New Order the melody won't leave me alone & now the words don't seem so slight either.

Always thought "Ours" was slight as well, but that it had unbelievable charm (see also: "Stay Beautiful"), and after "Mean" it seemed like the only truly twang-ish song for country radio. But even slight Swift means a lovely melody and deceptively simple words that accrue resonance as the song's narrative progresses ("People throw rocks at things that shine" shouldn't work, but it really devastates me). Also the video w/ Matt Saracen melts me even though the end feels like pandering.

Re: "Safe & Sound": it's a good look on her I think, and while it may be more tone than tune, the tone is lovely and, as Lex said, really devastating in the right moment.

I've been struggling with "Eyes Open" because it feels so obviously like The Song That Tells The Movie's Story, Possibly While The End Credits Roll, and I haven't felt her music to be this rote since "Change," but I think she sings it very well, and I guess it's a little interesting how the lyric can double as "cautionary tale of fame."
