Okay so she has a massive following. And I’m not here to put her down at all. I respect her music and how popular she is. But personally, I don’t get it. I’m a musician and have a very widespread taste in music from Rock, grunge to RnB and reggae, pop and Hiphop and country. But I just don’t get the popularity in Taylor Swift. To me her music is a little bland, her act is quite bland too and even dare I say her look is forgettable (I doubt I’d even know if I bumped into her in the street). So rip me apart TS fans - tell me I’m so wrong…
What puts Taylor Swift apart is the same thing that puts mainline Disney apart (despite crowing to the opposite but that's neither here nor there): They _dare to be clean_.
Everyone and their mom tries to be cool and edgy and transgressive and crass and mature.
T-Swift is someone that has all the pomp without the weird THIS IS SERIOUS ADULT MUSIC WITH CURSES AND BEWBEES thing everyone else tends to fall back on.
In a world where everything tries to find rules to break and boundaries to cross exercising restraint becomes a rare and valuable prize.
