[Edit this paragraph] Singer Profile
In the winter of 2006, country female singer Taylor Swift (hereinafter referred to as TS) released her first single, with the name of the popular country superstar Tim McGraw as the title. It attracted widespread attention and reached the top ten in the country rankings. Seeing such a title, many people may intuitively think that it is a song in praise of Tim McGraw. In fact, Tim McGraw's name is just used as a "bookmark" in a love story here. Singing of girls tell their sweetheart, when you think of Timmy McGraw, I want you to think of my favorite song, and I want you to think of me. Surprisingly, TS is not only the author of the songs, but she also personally participated in composing all the songs in her first album of the same name, and she was only fifteen years old at the time. In the history of country music, we have seen many successful teenage singers: Tanya Tucker was only thirteen years old when she sang "Delta Dawn", and Marie Osment ( Marie Osmond was also thirteen when she became famous with "Paper Roses", and LeAnn Rimes was also thirteen when she first made a splash with "Blue." In comparison, TS's rise seems a little late, but unlike several "predecessors", she does not have to rely on others to help her compose music. Not only can she sing, but she also appears as a "singer-songwriter", demonstrating He has quite mature creative talent, so his future is very promising.
Since her grandmother was a professional opera singer, she fell in love with music, especially the countryside, at an early age. She began performing in her hometown at the age of ten, participating in karaoke singing competitions, and participating in various celebrations. Won the public applause at the event. When she was twelve years old, she began to practice guitar hard, at least four hours a day, often playing until her fingers were torn and bleeding. At the same time, she began to try composing music, determined to enter the music scene. Her parents discovered her talent and perseverance and gave her full support. They took her to Nashville many times to expose her in various ways, and later even moved to a city near Nashville. One day, while performing at a local restaurant, she caught the attention of Scott Borchetta, a veteran record businessman. Polkeda, who originally worked in the record department of "DreamWorks", had just set up his own business at that time. He established an independent label "Big Machine" with country superstar Toby Keith*** and was looking for new talents, so It was decided to sign the fifteen-year-old TS and become the company's first singer. Before getting the record contract, she had actually obtained a contract with SONY Music Publishing Company based on her creative talent. However, in order to help her give a more mature performance, the company arranged for several people who would not ignore her because of her age. She works with professional writers who are willing to listen to her work and provide guidance.
With the help of Pol Keda, TS began recording their first album. For her, this is quite hard because she is still a student after all and wants to work hard to maintain consistently good grades. However, she cleverly found the balance between the two identities of "singer" and "student". However, she also admitted that because she often has various ideas in her mind, sometimes inspiration will suddenly come to her in the middle of the class, making her unable to concentrate on the class. She is even worried that the teacher will suddenly decide to randomly check everyone's notebooks and find that they are full of writing. There are many texts that are not part of the class content. Fortunately, this situation did not happen. In this way, she vividly turned the life of an adolescent girl into songs and completed her first album of the same name. When she was growing up, Tim McGraw was the artist who had the greatest influence on her, so she sang "Tim McGraw" at the beginning of the album. However, she did not directly praise her idol, but she was very skillful. In this touching love song, he points out that music can bring back many wonderful memories, and hopes that when her sweetheart thinks of Tim McGraw, she thinks of her favorite song that they often dance to and listen to. In "Picture to Burn", she sings about the stubbornness and humor of "love the right person" with a rock rhythm: she found that her boyfriend was super narcissistic and decided to break up. "You can tell your buddies that I'm crazy, that's okay. I can also tell my friends that you're gay. And, by the way, I hate your crappy car. You're a nuisance. You're always a nuisance. You're lying. Now that I'm done with it, you're just another photo to burn!"
We have to admit, with Tanya Tucker and Marios! Compared with Meng or Leanne Rimes, TS's singing voice does not seem to be so precocious, and even has a little girl's sweetness, but she makes up for everything with her quite mature creative skills, and her style is somewhat similar to the early Sheryl Cole. (Sheryl Crow) or Michelle Branch. But, then again, although her creative performance is quite beyond her years, she does not overestimate her ability to explore content beyond her limited life experience. Most of her songs are themes that she is familiar with and vividly depict them. With the joys, sorrows and joys of adolescence, he even personally made "eyebrow marks" for each song in the CD's inner copy to tell everyone the true spirit of the song. In "Teardrops on My Guitar", the theme is "He will never know". The girl singing is trying her best to put on a smile when facing the boy she likes. The boy talked excitedly about how beautiful a girl he liked was, and how happy he was that he had finally found a true love, but he didn’t know that the “good friend” in front of him was bleeding inside, because the girl knew that she didn’t have those “conditions” at all. , I could only secretly shed tears on my guitar. In "A Place In This World", she is a girl who is confused about her future and doesn't know what she wants to pursue. Although she knows that there are many people like her, she feels extremely overwhelmed at this moment. Lonely. No matter what, she will make herself strong, because life will always go on, and she is determined to find a place of her own. This subject matter may be "young", but TS's performance skills are very mature.
The theme "It's time to give up" became "Cold As You". She fell in love with a boy who only knew how to get and ask for, but never knew how to give. At the end of every date, It made her extremely sad. Now she finally thought clearly that she had never been to any place as cold as that boy. In the pain, she decided to cut off this relationship that would never bear fruit. "The Outside" that followed was another kind of sigh.
She fell in love with a boy who didn't seem to have many "bad records", but the series of setbacks made her almost unbearable, because when the other person simply refused to open his mind and accept her, what else could she do? As a lonely "outsider", that feeling is not very wonderful. She just hopes that the other person can know that there is someone "outside" who cares about him. When it comes to "Tied Together With A Smile", TS sings about the loneliness felt by many people who lack self-confidence, but she also tells everyone that you must learn to be strong, love yourself more, and don't care what others think. For a girl who was only fifteen years old when she wrote this song, such intelligence, wisdom and maturity are indeed relatively rare.
TS's precocious loveliness is fully demonstrated in "Stay Beautiful". She fell in love with a boy who was very good both inside and outside. In fact, almost all the girls in the school also hoped to win the favor of that boy. TS really hopes that she will be the "lucky one", but even though she may not necessarily be able to do so in the end, she still hopes that the boy will continue to maintain his original beauty. Then, "Should've Said No" brought another philosophy. A boy wanted to rebuild the old relationship, but TS refused because she didn't want to be hurt again. If the boy was really serious, when another girl asked him out, he would He should reject it. It's hard to recover after overturning the water. Since you didn't know how to cherish it at the beginning, don't regret it now. When it came to "Mary's Song (Oh My My My)", TS made a surprising surprise. All the previous songs are standard "songs of youth", but here she tells the beautiful memories of an old lady. When the old lady was seven years old, she met a neighbor boy who was two years older than her. They were childhood sweethearts and they spent a happy childhood together. When she was sixteen years old, the boy suddenly discovered that she was different. With the acquiescence of both parents, the two began to fall in love. After the first quarrel, the boy stood outside her door all night. A few years later, they walked down the aisle and built a happy family together. The old lady really hopes to return to her hometown where the two met for the first time and later raised their children together. Now, the old lady is eighty-seven years old, and her husband is eighty-nine, but their relationship remains unchanged. Thinking of the memories of this life, it is still unbelievable! This is composed by TS based on the true story of an old lady next door. It can also be said to be the most outstanding song of the entire album.
At the end of this album, TS ends with "Our Song": Every couple has their own "love song", but this couple doesn't, so the man tells each other , their love song is their love for each other and everything they have experienced together. Maybe this album is not perfect, but for a young girl who is only fifteen years old, she has successfully overcome the problem of insufficient "life experience" and gave a wonderful performance, which is no less than what she has already done. A senior singer with at least ten years of experience. Give her time, she is definitely a future star who deserves our close attention and anticipation!
