Default Taylor Swift channels Stevie..

Anyone else notice how Taylor Swift has been mimicking Stevie's 24k Gold vibe with her new album?

She's using that whole Polaroid, long-lost selfie thing in her promo pics:

http://store.taylorswift.com/TS-1989-CD.html

I think she carefully planned all along to use Stevie as a role model for songwriting: the whole write about your exes thing and then you'll generate lots of press with everyone trying to figure out which guy each song is about.

I think as she goes more pop and less country she's gonna become more and more "Stevie-like". She's already going that direction

Just my opinion..

One thing I worry about Taylor is if she goes nuts and act like an ahole and be a trouble maker like some of these young artists have lately.

I have not seen her video so I dont know what to say about her Stevie moves.
Taylor temporary or permanently ditched country music for pop music which reminds me when Olivia Newton-John ditched country music to pop when Physical came out.

I wonder if Taylor will get hold of Stevie and do a retry on some tunes.Maybe Taylor did some practice with Rhiannon.

Actually, the first thing I thought of when I saw this:



Was this:



Vampire Weekend did the whole 1980-era polaroid as an album cover 4 full years before either Stevie or Taylor . Taylor has been living in New York for a while now, so she's no doubt picked up on that hipster culture. Polaroids, LPs, anything vintage- are all en vogue right now. Taylor is simply following a trend.

TSwift is annoying
and Stevie's polaroids are better.
was Swift even born in the 80s? no
her polaroids were probably taken on one of the pastel pink cameras released circa 2012

1989. My boyfriend is obsessed with her. She can't sing for sh!t, and she makes horrible "oh, gee whiz! I'm so surprised you like me!" faces.

In short, she's the worst

In other news, has anyone heard Vampire Weekend's cover of Everywhere? Highly recommended, I love them.

When Taylor first came out I was about 14 and the minute I saw her videos I was like "Oh my gosh she's JUST LIKE STEVIE!"
